    Ron Washington is such a bad manager sometimes...why didn't he pinch hit for Lewis with the bases loaded? In a game like this, you just gotta get runs when you can....

    Are you old enough to be wagering? You certainly do not show any signs of maturity past the 7 total you just won.

    Seriously. Get a life. This thread is for mature adults.

    LTA, I want to thank you for this great thread. I learned so much from this thread, particularly the importance of value and finding good prices. It is a lesson that has not only improved my baseball picks, but also the other sports I play (especially hockey). I had alot of fun this year. I will be watching the other threads you have.

    Here's to hoping we have an NBA season (looking a little bit more likely now), I would like to learn about NBA betting.

    Also, to everyone else that participates in this thread, it has been great talking to you all.

    Fuking buried....

    Plus, you mushed my Texas ML play...what a loser. You lost tonight, just like your losing record throughout the season. Where'd your season thread go...oh, let me guess, you got buried and let it die.

    I just checked out your NHL plays...losers just like everything else you pick.

    Seriously dude, take your jibberish and kick rocks. You are correct, the play never changes. Unfortunately, for you, that play is always a loser....

    You are really, really bad at this. Good luck in the future...you will never get a response from me again.

    I shouldn't have even responded - I usually don't respond to trolls - but I was so pissed after texas blew all of those leads that I took out all my frustration out on that terrorist fool.

    I should really have more discipline though, especially after I told everyone not to respond.....oh well...back to the games.

    Who do you like tonight?

    This game is pretty much pick'em as far as I am concerned, so, honestly, I think there is more value in the game with Carpenter pitching. At those plus odds I will be on Texas. As the series has unfolded and the batters having now seen the pitchers (majority of pitchers in this series had the advantage of not having faced the opp much if at all), the quality of ab's has increased as well. I don't see either of these offenses being shut down at this stage (not advocating the over here, yet). Gonna take a deeper look at it later this afternoon.

    I just cant back Carp at -140 to -150 on three days rest against that rangers lineup. We all know what happened the last time he pitched on 3 days rest and it wasn't good.

    I'm sort of worried my bet on texas in the harrisin/lohse matchup is going to stand at -109. My book has not cancelled it yet which would mean I basically have 2x on this game at around +125. Not good. I didnt think I had to click listed pitchers because the wager was presented as a specific pitching matchup with the carp/harrison matchup presented as the "alternate." In my anger, I forgot to click on listed pitchers because I didnt think it was necessary. I dont want 2x on texas at +125, especially since I'm beating the current number by ten cents with my 1x play in the carp/harrison matchup. I have to call my rep and figure this out. Whatever I am stuck with is what I will post for my record in this thread since this is really just to track my plays. I wouldn't mind having 2x if they were both at +140.....

    Good luck Red...go get that money bud!

    Yep u got it all figured out

    I like how he post this in the 8th inning when the score was 7-4
    Why wait till the 8th when the game looks secure to declare your genius??

    Obviously an air bet anyhow so point is irrelevant.....

    Don't know what to think about tonight's game......really don't.

    My first reaction was Rangers are going to have a tough time bouncing back from this. Then I thought w/ bullpens being heavily used & getting pounded the over looks nice. Now w/ Carpenter going it's tough to predict how he performs on short rest in a game #7

    This game is a mess tonight & clearly difficult to get an accurate read on. It could really be a circus just like last night's game.

    I agree to some extent. However, I love the rangers at +125 or better. I have them set at +120 dogs, but you can probably argue that number if you think carp gets shelled because of the three day rest issue or the rangers get shelled because of the cards "momentum" from last night. That was a tough loss last night, but I'm not sure that means texas will roll over tonight. At least I hope not....good luck on whatever you choose.

    Good luck tonight gents. I am out tonight. Not placing any bets on this one. Remember, I hate baseball ;-). This one is just better than a coin flip and I should go with Texas but I cannot afford the wager (lost 16 units last night). Good luck to you all.

    Been a great season LTA, profitable regular season and playoffs. In a parallel universe I think you probably won twice the units (bad beats outweighed the breaks), but we'll get them next year. Thanks for all the work you put into it bro, like I have said before you are the James Brown of SBR, hardest workin' man!

    Being as that I am up considerably this season gonna go a little out of the norm on my bets tonight and am hitching my wagon that Texas gets over 3.5 runs. Going Texas ML Texas over 3.5 and game over 7.5. Also doing small parlays of Texas over 3.5 with Texas wins by 1,2,3,4,5,6 and 7+. What the hell, gonna have some fun with it on the last night and not wagering enough that it would put a dent in this season's winnings.

    GL to all the thread members, hopefully the core of good guys in here continue to contribute as we go forward .

    Play Ball! Hope we have a classic tonight!

    I just got off the phone with my local agent who called the online book based out of the Caribbean. Both wagers count. Even though these were listed as specific pitchers on the wager form, I still failed to click the specific pitcher button. Therefore, action was listed for both wagers and I am stuck with wager at -109. Consequently, I have 2x on the Rangers tonight which will count for the final record. Let's go Texas! Good luck guys!
