I have no problem with tailing guys if they have a valid reason behind their plays. But I will always give credit to the author. Yesterday's PC play was in Dexters' hands the previous night, but he stayed true and let the author announce the pick. And that ladies and gentlemen is what is called integrity. There were a lot of guys who already were on it before the pick was announced. So salute to those who had a bead on the game, I saw that CS11787 (I think that's the correct number) and a few others where spot on that play. Good work gentlemen. When I tail I give credit to the author.

Okay well maybe the Nats won't last today. Back to the drawing board!

Panekkkk · 04-13-09, 04:55 PM

Never betting on the Nats again....

suicidekings · 04-13-09, 05:00 PM

Wow... My under for the dodgers game just went from looking great to not so hot very quickly...

ragiche · 04-13-09, 05:16 PM

Hey Guys.I want to ask something.Are there any site that we can watch all the mlb games live for free.Instead of buying the games from mlb.com.

wangichu · 04-13-09, 05:17 PM

ironically, that would have been a walkoff by zimm if the nats hadn't committed 3 errors... oh well, inherent risk of betting on perrenial losers

Killer Chihuahua · 04-13-09, 05:24 PM

Is it really possible to have 3 errors in a MLB game by the same team? Man they suck defensivly

As much as I loved this matchup, I have a longstanding mistrust of Ted Lilly on the mound from his TOR days. Nice call!

Dexter · 04-13-09, 05:37 PM

copied from sundays thread...

billingsley looked solid in his first start, and i expect much of the same vs the weak hitting giants offense. bills was dominant at home last year vs the giants tossing a CG/SO. RJ counters for SF, but he cant be counted on for more then 5 or 6inn.

-dodgers -150

love the early line movement as the brewers have gone from a -130 to -145 favorite already, as the sharps have sided with Gallardo. YG in 2 career starts vs the Reds has an era/whip of 1.32/1.17 and looked great in his first start. Volquez in 3 career starts vs the brewers has a 5.09/1.48 including a 5inn/4er performance at milw last year. he had an extremely poor/wild first start, and milw isnt the place to get right with Braun, Fielder etc looming.

-brewers -140 (big - 2x)

the redsox have come out of the box slow, and dropped 2 of 3 in LA. This line screams value to me, as Lester should bounce back vs a weak oakland lineup.

-redsox -140

ragiche · 04-13-09, 05:40 PM

Thanks! Peter.Good luck to our plays today.

Jimbo42 · 04-13-09, 06:04 PM

Booked:

Cleveland +103 (medium)

San Diego +190 (small)
Cincinnati +125 (small)

Rays really whacking Wang

cocknocker · 04-13-09, 07:35 PM

Try to say that 6 times hella fast.

Rays really whacking Wang! This is a blowout!

repski · 04-13-09, 07:38 PM

1st inning runs scored is 7-4 so far today...

cocknocker · 04-13-09, 07:40 PM

1st inning runs are on fire today. I wish that I had taken them.

ragiche · 04-13-09, 07:40 PM

Nice call on the rays CK,I think this will be easy money. And Pete nice job on the PIT, CWS and CHC pick i also follow that game but not big, all medium size bets for me today.These are the only mlb games I played.Waiting for the NBA,booked on the t-wolves,cavs and spurs.GL to all.

cocknocker · 04-13-09, 07:43 PM

Carmona allows too many baserunners by giving up wallks. It's apparent that his problems from last year spilled over into this year

Dexter · 04-13-09, 07:43 PM

tue-

the yankees are getting blowed out tonight, and i expect them to bounce back tomorrow after this embarrassing performance. burnett has always been solid vs the rays with a career 2.98/1.05 era whip, and his last 6 starts at TB have all resulted in earned runs of 3 or less each game. garza has a career 5.00/1.48 against ny.

-yankees (ML)

fade the rookies for my next 2 plays:

john danks matches up with the young phenom rick porcello on tue. porcello is one of the best pitching prospects in the game, but is no doubt not ready yet at the tender age of 20. the tigers are known for letting their young arms get the experience at the big level, and porcello was not sharp in his first game. the whitesox are 5-1 vs the tigers in games started by danks. give me the whitesox ace at a nice price.

-whitesox (ML)

what can be said about chris carpenter. always one of my favorite pitchers for his bulldog like approach on the mound. he works fast, and keeps the pitch count down thus ending lots of games on his own. hes coming off of major arm surgery, but his preseason + start 1 resemble the carpenter of old. the cards look great early on, and i'll fade the young (but super talented) scherzer in this spot. hes had a rough spring dealing with shoulder issues, and was not sharp in his last tuneup walking 5 in 4inn. he may not be healthy yet.

-cards (RL)

*size of bets to follow later after tonights results.

ragiche · 04-13-09, 07:50 PM

I'll follow you on the yanks tomorrow,Dex.

Dexter · 04-13-09, 07:54 PM

gotta love the yanks as a dog off a loss....

Kav · 04-13-09, 08:00 PM

damnit i wish 07' carmona was pitching, im in a hole right now, but still early in both games...

i got:

toronto and indians right now lol.

ragiche · 04-13-09, 08:08 PM

As like what you said dex.The yanks will win tomorrow outright Burnett dominates the rays.I know Garza a good pitcher and was mvp last alcs.But revenge is the factor here with this humiliating they got tonight.

ragiche · 04-13-09, 08:12 PM

I know this is not a basketball thread but I need these cavs to shoot that ball only up by 9 with over 5 mins to go.The pacers are a dangerous team,now go cavs.

The_Kid · 04-13-09, 08:19 PM

Oh man, Gallardo just gave up a grand salami! Both pitchers are getting lit up tonight.

Dexter · 04-13-09, 08:22 PM

good job gallardo - gotta love when a front of the rotation pitcher cant hold a large lead.

Dexter,

good luck...I'm on fade mode with this Yanks team.....I like this Rays squad...

Dexter · 04-13-09, 08:51 PM

bases loaded no out with hart, fielder and braun up...0 runs.

cocknocker · 04-13-09, 10:41 PM

It happens homes. But the Reds got it done, the Rays also, the Nats and the Indians, ah well whatever. But I didn't lose any vigorish because I had positive money dogs
