00:00Boston and Seattle. They're going to get the card started today, Joe Renier, at 410 Eastern,

00:04which means 110 out there in the Pacific Northwest. It's Boston and it's Seattle, 961,

00:10962 on the rotation. Crochet the lefty taking on Luis Castillo. If we look at the odds market here,

00:15opened up roughly as a pick'em and currently sitting now as a pick'em as well. The minus 124,

00:20down a little bit at a minus 118 price here as the favorites towards the Boston Red Sox.

00:25The total in this one, look at that, six and a half at the opening number, six and a half we stand here

00:31today. Garrett Crochet a big part of that because why? His last 33 and a third innings pitched a 270

00:35ERA and a sparkling clear 2.36 XFIP number. Some people look at that like the only way I can go is

00:42to the over, give me three to three and we cover that, but we know that ballpark doesn't like to

00:46surrender a ton of runs and we have a shutout in each one of these past two games. What do we see

00:51today? Crochet, Castillo, Sox versus the Mariners? Well, I'll tell you what I've seen from Crochet

00:59is a whole lot of very high pitch counts and a whole lot more innings on track for than he has

01:06at any point in his career and at some time that's going to take its toll on Crochet here and, you know,

01:13the old dog there in Castillo, you know, he's had some moments here, but it's all in all,

01:19it seems like it's taken a little while to get it going. I think the Mariners have lost money as a

01:24home dog, even against Crochet. I think they are alive here. I think the only way I would look at

01:30this is dog or pass here. I'm looking to back Seattle in this one.
