TWINS TAKE ON RANDY JOHNSON

6/20/08

When we first took a look at the weekends Interleague card, we thought we might have a pretty deep card for Friday. But as we got into it, we really didn't come up with anything strong. As will all sports handicapping, a key part to success, is passing and not forcing plays. Such is the case Friday. We anticipate finding some nice spots over the weekend, but not today. Even the play we do have was borderline.

Twins -110 over D-Backs - We love to go against Randy Johnson these days. His name alone keeps the price down most of the time, but he's a shell of his former self. He's 44 years old, and can't imagine him playing much longer. He held his own and did well to start the year but the wheels fell off as he has lost 3 starts in a row with an ERA of 7.71. We'd equate it to a great boxer. A great old boxer. He may be able to go a few rounds with the current, young champ, but his age will catch up to him as the fight wears on. For you boxing fans, think Larry Holmes vs Mike Tyson 20 years ago. The Twins have some momentum having won three in a row and we simply feel it's worth it to play against Randy Johnson pretty much any time he takes the mound from here forward.
