Thursday Tips

MLB

4.15am St Louis v Milwaukee
$100 St Louis - 1.5 @ $1.83

Pretty confident with this bet, the Cardinals start Wainwright who has any amount of statistics to support the bet - leads MLB in ERA (1.99), is 17-6 over the season but in past 7 starts is 5-1 with a 1.31 ERA and hasn't given up a run in 5 of those starts. He is also 9-0 with a 1.30 ERA in 10 daytime starts, seven of which have come at home. He's been virtually untouchable at home regardless of the time of day, going 11-0 with a 1.22 ERA.

And if that isn't enough, he has pitched twice against the Brewers this year for 2 complete game wins with a total of 3 hits and 1 run allowed over the 18 innings pitched.

Despite the Cardinals losing their past 3 (including 2 against the Brewers), I am confident their big name hitters will get the better of the pitching from the beermakers with this match up. Reckon 4 runs will be enough to cover actually and can see them scoring 7 or 8

Will also post a couple more later but threw this up early as on at 4.15am tomorrow

EDIT

The 2 others I was going to post were

Mets v Astros under 7 - was 2.04 now into 1.82 so leaving it alone. This was actually the first one I picked out but not taking the price now, wish I took it originally!!
Yankees v Tigers over 9.5 - also been backed and only going to be a half bet anyway so leaving alone also

  1. Hi Matt!

    Have decided to take your Cardinals bet mate...Do watch a tiny bit of MLB every now and then but not mad about it... Only got $1.80(-1.5) through TAB though, but see how we go anyway.....

    Good luck mate and thanks for the tip!

    Regards.

  2. Into $1.80 with Centrebet as well now, lets see if we can stop Wainwright as those stats are amazing

  3. Been simply atrocious the Cardinals offensively so far down 1-0 after 5. Lots of fly ball outs but nothing to show for it
