      As of today, we will hallucinate that I laid a -126 79.365 UNIT bet on the Rangers yesterday.

      Pull out your abaci, that is a 100 unit deficit.

      Didn't say that you did bet it, and I'm not going to get into a battle of words with you. You just always seem to infer that there is no one on this site with a comparable intelligence level. Whether you bet it or not, you posted a play on team whose pitcher had a 1-6 career record against his opponent. GL going forward. If you are down, I hope you make it back. If you're up good for you.

          There is extensive evidence AGAINST the validity of this argument.

          Let it be known that batter vs. pitcher and pitcher vs. batter "ownage" is merely an illusion - a construct of the mind that has been proven false by myself and numerous other PhD statisticians. Chalk it up to small sample size variance.

            Ok Doctor, let me try this your style.
            1. it's not an illusion if it's true.
            2. I'll give you the small sample size
            3. Show me the stats that disproves this
            4. I'm sure I'm older than you
            5. I didn't say thank you

                  Son, your top thought last night wasn't so good. But, being the adult here, I won't pass judgment on you yet. Show me what you got.

                    Let's get a drumroll please. My cheer squad ready.


                    I am going to put into practice what I preach right here so pay attention.

                    Most people are looking at Chase Utley's 2 for 22 career vs. Niese; Howard's 1-for-15; D-Brown no hits no problem. No fear.

                    Phillies -146

                    Yankees -175 vs. the Seattle Triple-A Marinara sauce.

                    Cubs +1.5 -180

                        I'll be watching intently.
                        Phillies play is not a bad one considering Hammels past success against NY

                          Hammels (7-13) vs mets that's a .350 winning percentage. He's worst against the Mets in his career ( min 5 starts) than any other team

                            There is no doubt - in 26 career starts vs. the Mets he has sucked overall. But I trust in the numbers I work with and the players that are on the field today. Even worse is Niese's career domination over the heart of the Phillies lineup.

                            It probably isn't a coincidence that to most people the Mets will look like a slam dunk, and that is probably why after crunching the numbers, I calculate the Phillies to have value.

                                  Hammels is 4-2 at Citi field over the last 3 years. Only problem, they aren't playing there. My bad.

                                          Laying over -170 on 60% of your posted wagers is one way to get noticed around here, I guess.

                                              Sorry about that mistake in spelling. But I wouldn't confuse Hamels with the game's best. Hasn't been that good for a couple of years. And I never claimed to be knowledgeable.
