Friday's Play--SRV Train Going Strong !

3 side plays. 3 big winners in a row. Stevie stays. The side plays stay. Got one for us for tonight.

For Friday I like the Colorado Rockies at even from the Pirates. Here's why:

The Pirates start lefty Paul Maholm. The Rockies are batting a rock-solid .282 against lefties this year, averaging over 6 runs per game. In fact, the Rockies have the 4th best on base percentage against lefties in the MLB (.878). Maholm is 3-1 on the year with a 4.06 ERA, a 1.33 WHIP and a .265 batting average against. For the month of May however (his last 2 starts) his ERA is 6.57 and his batting average against is .308. In his last 3 starts, he has allowed 23 hits and 7 walks in 17.2 innings, for an ERA of 7.41 and a WHIP of 1.744. For his career against the Rockies (all in the past 3 years), he is 1-2 with a 5.00 ERA and a .347 batting average against. Speaking of batting average against, the Rockies line-up is loaded with righty batters. Against righty batters, Maholm's batting average against is .299.

Meanwhile, the Rockies start lefty Jorge De La Rosa. Shockingly, he has turned into a decent pitcher. On the year he is 0-3, but with an ERA of 3.53, a 1.21 WHIP and a batting average against of only .208. For the month of May (his last 2 starts) he has been lights out, allowing only 7 hits and 4 walks (with 15 strikeouts) in 13 innings. His batting average against in May is .159. Over his last 3 starts he has an ERA of 2.70 and an awesome WHIP of only 0.842. On the road this year he is 0-1, but with an ERA of 2.65 and a .215 batting average against. Here's the best part---the Pirates stink against lefties, batting only .236 against them.

Friday's "Texas Flood" play is the Rockies at even from the Pirates.

I see at scoresandodds that the line on the Pirates has dropped from -120 to -116. Hopefully a good sign (as it was yesterday with the Orioles).

for those keeping score at home (LOL), the season record now stands at 9 wins and 11 losses (I'm not bothering to count pushes). A $100 bettor would be - $360.

Wasn't going to post it in the daily thread until I hit the plus column. But you guys know that I don't hide my ugly beginning to this season. Hopefully, as that famous poet Bob Dylan said, "they times they are a changing"
