Re: Wakefield in a dome, I missed it again
Wakefield has a new catcher for tonight's game.
Cash played catch with Wakefield over the weekend and believes he's ready to handle his knuckleball for the game.
Who knows if he's actually correct or not OR how comfortable Wakefield might feel throwing to this new catcher.
TB most certainly will try to be more patient waiting for their pitch if they can. They certainly are well aware of how well Wakefield has done there.
Should be interesting to see.
Still though, even considering how well Kazmir has done, I like a BOS bet here as they are by far the superior team of course. This is their 3rd time facing Kazmir in less than a month. After his previous 2 dominating performances I expect the BOS batters to be more deliberate in solving the puzzle this time and to come up with more success than they have been showing.
Chances of Wakefield still getting his dome-swerve on to match Kazmir zero for zero if necessary combined with BOS being the better team in the first place adds up to me liking BOS as slightly better than a 50/50 shot which is about where the line is.
I think there's barely value on the BOS side.
