00:00We have a doubleheader today, which between the New York Mets and the Baltimore Orioles,

00:03Sugano was a guy that I was looking at yesterday, maybe with the chance to get tuned up a bit,

00:07hasn't been that good in Major League Baseball this year.

00:09But the approach for you also, Derek, on a doubleheader, like you see Peterson versus

00:13Sugano and then Peterson versus Morton, I don't seem to have the other pitcher up on

00:17deck here for me, but Sugano is going to be one of those pitchers for Baltimore.

00:20How do you approach a doubleheader when you take a look at your numbers?

00:24Yeah, it's looking like, if I were to guess, maybe Justin Hageman for the Mets,

00:27who is not very good, to put it nicely, I think there's going to be value on the Orioles here.

00:39We're getting plus money on the money line, depending where you look.

00:42It looks like we have plus 118 here.

00:44I have them right now projected as minus 104 favorites, and so I would be looking at that.

00:51It's a little tough with a doubleheader because you don't even know who's going to play the

00:55first game yet this early, but then who's going to sit after the first game and not

00:59play the second game?

01:00We don't know how taxed the bullpen is going to be, that kind of stuff.

01:04But I think when you look at it, you know, with Hageman on the hill for the Mets and the

01:09Orioles, I mean, they haven't been good this year, but they are better true talent-wise

01:14than they have performed.

01:16I like the Orioles today.

01:18Derek, final minute of this segment, the other New York team, the finale of their three-game

01:23set against the Mariners, and the Yankees looking to complete the sweep up in the Bronx

01:27this week.

01:28What do you like tonight between the Yanks and the Mariners?

01:31I like the Mariners.

01:33It's another one where I think the fair price is better than the book is setting it at.

01:40I know it's the Yankees.

01:42They've won three in a row now, so the books are kind of back to setting their standard

01:47Yankees tax.

01:48If you want to bet on the Yankees, you have to pay for it.

01:51Give me the value on the Mariners.

01:53They have by far the better pitcher in this game, and offensively, I don't think they're

01:59any slouch either.

02:02Seattle looking to avoid the sweep this week against the Yankees.
