When analyzing baseball totals, weather can be even more important than stats and starting pitchers. This particular baseball season has seen terrible weather in the northeast, with ten times as many rain outs already as we saw all of last season.
Baseball begins and ends with pitching. Because of the number of games and the length of the season, the sport lures as many investors as the others. The structure of odds… no point spread… and the nature of the game however, with the disproportionate emphasis on pitching, baseball must be treated in a different way.

Atlanta Braves vs. New York Mets
1 Unit FREE PLAY on Atlanta Braves +195 (listing Hampton and Martinez)
The Braves are overdue for a win and they have a great shot tonight. The Braves have actually won 7 of 11 against the Mets this season and will be looking to salvage a win in this series after dropping the first two. Atlanta is 44-17 against the money line in road games after 3 or more consecutive losses since 1997 and 103-57 against the money line in road games with double revenge – 2 straight losses against opponent since 1997. Hampton looked really good in his last start and I like him to out-duel Pedro tonight.
