Sorry, WOK. Just got back to computer. I wouldn't have had any real thoughts on those games as they didn't interest me. But I did tell Vegas that the Giants game is one I wouldn't touch today, because like Oda11 said.. Giants are tough to read lately.

We'll get'em tomorrow. Good luck if you did invest into those games!

oda11 · 09-23-09, 10:46 PM

Angels -3.6
Angels under +2 (Thanks Karma! Cut my losses to half

)
Sox +3 (Thanks to Pimike for the re-tap

)

Today: +1.4

Not to bad since started tailing people... (the re-tap got me a couple of flat screen tv's though)

Strategy - Play on teams still in the races until they clinch or are eliminated. Do not play on teams still in contention against each other until the playoffs. Thoughts?
Good luck today everyone.

Final for today. Was going to parlay BOS/LAA, but didn't get it in on time.

4-4 -.39 Units today.
Wrong side on LAD, STL, & COL - Glad I played em low juice.
Over the hump - Keep pluggin away

Hello Gentlemen,

Thought I would take the plunge and post in your forum...seems like an amicable place for a newbee. I only bet baseball and hockey…sad to see MLB ending but licking my chops for hockey.

My play…

The Oakland/Rangers game is a solid under (under 8@-114 or under 8.5@-134)

Feldman has had 7 out of his last 10 starts with 2 ERs or less including 3 starts with 0ERs. Anderson has had 8 out of his last 10 starts with 3 ERs or less…with only10 ERs in his last 5 starts combined.

Both teams have very strong bullpens that go 3-4 men deep. They are among the top 4 or 5 pens in the AL. Oakland has such a surplus of good bullpen arms, that they are rumored to be trading from this strength for more hitting this offseason.

This game will be played in one of the better pitchers parks in the game.

This is an afternoon ‘get-away’ game, which would indicate there might be a weaker bat or 2 in the lineup. Josh Hamilton (at last report) remains unavailable to the Rangers.

I also bet the Reds (Arroyo) @ -1 (+102) and am in total agreement with Mr Handicapable. The Reds have been getting handicapped like Cleveland, but they’re playing .500 ball.

Good luck with your bets!

Cheers,
dogcity

oda11 · 09-24-09, 03:26 AM

Nice write-up Dogcity, you almost convinced me for the under there

I am on the Reds with you, not a big play though since it's a sweep/no sweep situation.

dogcity · 09-24-09, 03:43 AM

Ya the sweep thing...does make you think twice.

If it was the 1st or 2nd game of the series you wouldn't blink...and the way Arroyo has been pitching lately...

Good luck on the Reds...

oda11 · 09-24-09, 03:49 AM

Good luck to you as well dogcity.

$Karma$, I took Texas and San Fran. I was very lucky. I took your early pick on the unders for Ny/ LAA. With that pick, I also took the under in the first 5 for 2 units. Thanks to you, this was a very profitable day. Have a good one. WOK

Outstanding! Really glad you collected WOK. Especially the 1st 5. I was kicking myself for not taking that - it was the easiest investment of the day. Hope to see more of your selections... this thread works the best when everyone contributes.

Let's get'em today boys.

Welcome Sir. Good luck to you, and look forward to hearing more.

Karma and Oda. You boys are nuts!

Keep up the hard work.

therber2 · 09-24-09, 11:35 AM

Haven't post for a while....

....so I'll give you all my early leans for the day, and we'll see if I can brew anything up.

-Colorado (Here is a good example of a play that would normally win however, current circumstances push it too much towards an odd coin toss. I want to tell you the Rockies are going to smear the Pads, but I can't) On with the list...
-Oakland
-Reds
-Blue Jays
-Nationals
-Detroit (Cleveland on a 10 game losing streak [good or bad for this wager?] Verlander in, hot bats vs. cold bats. On the other hand Cleveland is getting beat and beat, and this series will conclude a double sweep. Again I want to tell ya'lls that the boys from Detroit are going to smear, but we've got some coin toss factors so once more I pass)
-Milwaukee
-Cubs
-Boston??

Should we go by the idea that a team "does not need a win" or that wins are ALWAYS sought after? Is it a question per team?

DET/CLE

(light)
TOR/SEA

(light)
COL/SGO

(Medium-heavy)
CHI/SFO

(Medium)

Throw in some NFL:
Teaser on Broncos and Vikings

The play for the first game was PIT

but it won't count for here as the game has started - just to busy outside putting in the some of the posts that will be needed to hang the outside Christmas decorations, might seem early for some but it needs to be done while the ground is still workable.
