00:00As for today's card, I know we had touched on a couple of these already.

00:03Skeens, apparently there are spots out there where you can get him at six and a half Ks today.

00:09Heavily juiced to the over, like almost minus 150, but you can get him at BetMGM right now.

00:16Skeens, seven and a half strikeouts and plus money on the over. I really like that.

00:23I know the Astros are not a strikeout team, but it's the first time they've seen him.

00:28He's trying to bounce back from a hard luck loss. Plus 115, the over seven and a half.

00:34I don't hate that look. How much does that matter?

00:39Not a low strikeout rate. When you're talking about Skeens, maybe ends up being...

00:45You really need to... Yeah.

00:47Yeah. Does it really matter the matchup? I'm kind of at that point with Skeens right now,

00:53where, oh, low strikeout rate. Well, guess what? We're getting value on the number.

00:57That's what we're getting right now. So if you look at his recent starts,

01:00so the number seven and a half, how often is he going over that number? One, two, three, four, five.

01:06Eight of the last nine starts, he's gone over seven and a half. And the one time he did not,

01:10he had seven. I think you've got to play the over seven and a half, even though it's against the

01:14team. And don't forget that his last start out against St. Louis, it was his first loss, but he

01:20shoved and they let him go 104 pitch into the ninth at eight strikeouts, no walks in that game.

01:27Now he did barely go over the number. So that's interesting.

01:31What is that Houston team total? What about, would you go under?
