Bout time the Jays get one. They owed me money from Friday and Sat

[EXhoosier10]

Lots of weird numbers today IMO. I wanted to back ubaldo, stults and j Sanchez but I would have never felt comfortable doing that at less than +200. Hate cards like these, even though minny is looking good

Tried to get slick and basically bet the board. Man did that ever backfire. So much for "RLM"....

PHI FF -105 (2.1U to win 2)

[No coincidences]

Phillies are infuriating to watch.

5-5, -0.4U today with the Phillies left on the table.

Utley doubles to lead off the 7th. Howard swings at the first pitch and bounces weakly to second. Phils then load the bases, but Rivere hits a perfect DP ball right to short.

This is the difference between a winning team (the Cardinals) and a losing team (the Phillies right now) -- getting the little things done at pivotal moments. They need Ruiz back in the worst way.

Clutch hit. Cards schooling the Phillies and their shitty bullpen on fundamental baseball.

Why is Chad Durbin still in baseball?

Manuel needs to retire... Horrible choices

I honestly don't remember the last good decision he's made as a manager.

[Itsamazing777]

Good decision with nix though!

Rollins K's when he should've been bunting Nix to 3rd with one out.

Pathetic hitters and their inflated egos. God forbid old man Rollins lays one down like he should.

[No coincidences]

Hate to say this, but I might have a big card again Monday.

Like the A's, Nats, D'Bags and maybe even the Cubs. Giving the Rays and Jays a look as well.

[No coincidences]

Runner at 2nd with no outs in B2B innings and the Phils don't score a single run either time.

[TrapperDapper]

Believe it or not, Matheny is the worst manager in this game. He's just been given the superior team.

I'm no fan of Matheny. Trust me. He's in way over his head.

Can the Phils screw this up three innings in a row?

[Itsamazing777]

Yesssss! Boggs hands us the cash!

[No coincidences]

Boggs should wear a white flag instead of a jersey. Send that guy down already.

[TrapperDapper]

We finally get the big inning that bunting would have prevented. I do condone it from time to time. but there is no way I would bunt with Carpenter especially after he hit a home run.

6-5, +1.6U today
83-76, +39.59U thread

Made too many plays again. Eventually that's going to bite me in the ass. Already saw the ill-effects with some of the losses today (Houston, Detroit) in virtual toss-up games (though Arizona did come back and cash).

TOR +108 (2U to win 2.16)
CHC +149 (1U to win 1.49)
ARI +110 (1U to win 1.1)

Will add Cubs and D'Backs FF later. Still looking at Miami as well. Twins are playing well and the Marlins are horrific, but Correia being favored like that over Nolasco is ridiculous.

a ridiculous statement, be more results oriented.

"i called too many times with AK today, and it shows as people held underpairs every time and I never got it in dominating. not to mention i only won 5 of the 12 hands. i should start folding AK preflop more often."

clearly if you bet 11 games 2 or 3 of them are going to look like toss ups throughout the game and towards the end.

edit: i'm sure you know this, although it's not evidenced at all by your statement. 30% of mlb games are decided by 1 run. it's a frustrating sport to bet on even if you're a long term winner.

[EXhoosier10]

What am i missing on Tor today? I don't like either Happ nor Tillman

Because I was just making plays to make plays, rather than focusing more on the games I liked the most and upping my units that way rather than having them dispensed over a slew of games.

I think Happ's getting there, slowly but surely. I'm not a fan of Tillman either. Baltimore's coming off a long, drawn out series and their bullpen is spent (which they should need tonight).

Damn Nocoin you're making some $$$! Keep it up man

I know, I know....

[EXhoosier10]

Just put all 7u on one game. It won't be as exciting (read: depressing) as watchign Cliff Lee's 20u game last year, but it should at least get your blood flowing

Agree -- LOL. Nights like these drive me crazy, where I'm checking on 6-8 games going on at once. I don't know why I do this to myself, especially given I'll probably be .500 when all is said and done.

[No coincidences]

FTR, I still remember that Cliff Lee game pitch by excruciating pitch....

[No coincidences]

I have over 8 units on the Bulls tonight.
