CK's Daily MLB Thread Leans for Tuesday 4/21/09

[moneyline]

I think this is where it all goes wrong for Rangers backers ... very wrong

[BmoreBucco]

no hit yet, bullpens are a fickle friend

And I try not to play favorites on run lines, but Ponson is Ponson. On that same note, I never play 1st halves, but with my reasoning on this wager, I should have. Note to self!

Sure enough, Cleveland bullpen giving it away...

[moneyline]

Yes, yes, yes, yes ... congrats, Arch ...

Congrats CK on the Rangers call. I would have played Doc all the way. Glad I didn't.

[showtime2000]

Nice call CK on Texas.

[mcbaseball10]

mad props CK, tailed you on the ML and runline. Nice work!

[chucksmith]

must give credit where credit is due, that was a nice call

[Dexter]

Looking ahead to tomorrow, I like

Boston/Minnesota over 9.5
NY Mets-110 HEAVY Dexter Special
KC+165 or more
Texas+133 or more

bos/min play a dh tomorrow - you're referring to liriano/penny in game 2?

[CUAIrish]

Should have figured they'd pull my plug on that +1.5 +155... Anyways nice hit on Tex and still got Det 1H and game.

[showtime2000]

Adding 1 more NHL play,
Anaheim +140

[BmoreBucco]

Yeah game 2 my bad! I'll make the change now

[Dexter]

wow, dan haren is 0-3 on the year with an era/whip of 1.89/.78.

the d'backs have scored 1 run in all 3 of his starts

if the dbacks bats give another 6+ tonight, i may make a large play on haren with the RL.

the dbacks offense looks sharp early, and i fully expect them to get haren his first win tomorrow.

-dbacks (RL) (2x)

the jays/rangers couldnt even stay under with halladay on the mound. a matchup of harrison (8.43/2.43) last 3 starts and purcey (6.45/1.70) should equate to lots of scoring with these 2 solid offenses in ideal conditions.

-over jays (2x)

[CUAIrish]

Ok, does anyone know how often there's a home run in the 5th inning? is there a prop bet i can take on that?

[CUAIrish]

First Aaron Hill now Tori Hunter. Both in the bottom of the 5th.

And thats just today...

[TheLemonDropKid]

ck you are serious? TEXAS?? fade the texas.. garbage pitcher,garbage team, garbage manager, garbage bats..

I just have to end the night with this post....

And yes RB4033......he was serious.....

LOL!!!! This post sounds familiar!! CK taught me the importance of not getting "hearburn relief". So I started playing the 1st 5 innings of games (which I had never done before). All 4 games looked great until.......screeeeech......the 5th inning!!! LOL.

I asked the exact same question you just asked.

[shoebox]

blue jays aka mr doc Halladay -1.5 -110 3 units
oakland +235 3 units
