Betting Baseball – The Hot Sheet: April 27

The Hot Sheet has been mighty cold of late.  Maybe consider fading these plays?  But we are hoping to have some good one’s upcoming.

Here’s one such play: Pittsburgh as a +107 underdog in St. Louis.  Jake Westbrook is 1-7 when starting against Pittsburgh with an ERA of 5.91 and a WHIP of 1.687.

His team's record is 2-7 in these starts. The UNDER is 5-3.

A.J. Burnett is 6-5 when starting against ST LOUIS with an ERA of 3.94 and a WHIP of 1.300.

His team's record is 2-7 in these starts. The UNDER is 5-3.

The Pirates are 5-0 in their last 5 games following a loss.

The Cardinals are 1-5 in Westbrook's last 6 starts but we should caution that the Pirates are 1-5 in Burnett’s last 6 road starts, and, as such, the OVER 7 is also looking mighty good to us.

Both teams are playing well of late.
