Detailed Write Up:
For tonight I have 3 strong leans w/ Under and I’m playing all of them as I feel that we are going to see some “Pitchers’ duels” on the mound…Both Francisco Liriano and A.J. Burnett have been pitching pretty well lately… Liriano is having some bad luck as his team hasn’t provided him the proper run support but after struggling in one start vs. ATL, Liriano is bounced back and made 3 straight quality starts on his L3 starts. The last one was impressive if we take in account that the Cubs’ lineup is a solid lineup vs. LHP’s this season and still, Liriano held them to 6 scoreless innings.On the other end, we have a red hot Burnett on the mound. I have played him in each of his L3 starts w/ good success as we’ve won 2 plays (both as big underdogs!) He dominated the solid lineup of the Nationals twice in those 2 starts, and I expect him to be decent tonight as well.
