CK's Daily MLB Thread Leans for 4/25/09

[cocknocker]

I like the following games for today's action. It's harvest time so I won't be able to go back and forth too much:

Mets/Nats over 9.5 (Needs no explanation)
Minnesota+115 (False favorite. Pavano sucks. It will show)
Minnesota 1st half (no line yet)
Atlanta-1.5 +130
Texas-1.5 +160 Reverse runline Crumbs Play-O-The-Day

Those are mine gentlemen. Good luck

ok only two early plays for me so far today:
NYM -1 (heavy 10x)
ATL -1 (big 5x)

if they hit I will have some more later if not I am done for today

GL

[cocknocker]

The money reads well on all of these picks so far. I hope that they come to fruition

[Rellik]

Great picks CK, let's cash them all.!!!!!!!

Main Event Mafia...Let's Roll..!!!!!!!!

[Jimbo42]

I'm baaaaaack! Look, ya'll didn't even miss me! How's the mafia doing today?

[cocknocker]

I also took a prop wager today for all the road teams combined runs+3.5 +145

[IfDntmk$itDntmkc]

i'm rolling with you Ck on everything but TEXAS. Feldman has been horrid and Baltimore has the Rangers number. Michaeal Young can't save them every game. GL Mafia!!!!!

[showtime2000]

JIMBO, we missed ya!

No NHL yesterday from me but i'll have some today.

[cocknocker]

I'm good Jimbo. Late and long hours during harvest time. 4 or 5 more days of down time and then it's back to work. I have a long trip coming up in a few days, so the work has to get done over a period of about two days in the final stage.

[cocknocker]

If you notice on yesterday's thread, I said that all that I want the Rangers to d was hit one more home run than Baltmore. That's all that I want today. I mean it's not really that hard. The Rangers have a good hitting lineup that is only now starting to warm up. if it's not Michael Young in this game then it will be someone else. Let's go Rangers!

[Romolicious]

I am all over Minn. I think they should be the favs in this game. As for Feldman and the Rangers, I am a little hesitant. That's my home team and I know how bad Scooter Feldman is. The only chance for the Rangers is to win a high scoring game. I would definitely play the over in this one.

[shoebox]

i like cinn

ragiche
thats a lot of games you play today...if my two early ones hit I will play sea/laa over, cws -1, col and det later on

so lets hope ATL and NYM can put it together today... two of my biggest bets so far...

GL

[Dexter]

i tell ya - you look around sbr at some of the "regulars" with monster post counts - its baffling how they spend this much time on a sports gambling site yet are actually kinda clueless when it comes to sports.

then again, most people here are just degenerate gamblers and not actual sports fans. lol

[ragiche]

Pete, I only play them lightly(around $100 per game).I booked early cause i'm going to work.So no backing out for me on this one.And yes let's cash on this two games first o i mean three i also played Noh in the nba.

[Jimbo42]

CK, Showtime... all the fellas looks like evryone is happy! btw, nice PC on Miami CK....

I like some later games...
Early games, I'm in a quandry (big word mafia! lol) about WASH...
I love to play Road dogs after a 1 run loss (always a good value)
but...... I have trouble going against teams that are -175 to -199 in April or May... you can actually bet them blindly and make a profit even with the juice (which i don't)...
That -150 to -174 in April is the one you want to shoot against...

What to do... what to do...

[peterpan19]

just to let you know guys...ck is playing NO heavy today

GL

[vassman86]

Just getting into baseball handicapping, so my selection is very limited. I like the Met/Nats 1st Half over 5.5 runs. I see that Pelfrey has been getting off to shaky starts allowing four or more runs in his past two starts. The Mets' batters are averaging over a .350 batting average against Cabrera, and an OBP of .457. Light up the scoreboard!

[Jimbo42]

I'm passing on that WASH play but did already get me some of that NO money.... With the money on the home fav NO only being in the 30% range... that's a nice contrarian look...

I may be missing something, but I show that Cabrera hasn't thrown against the Mets in his career.

[jellobiafra]

Well I made a heavy play on Den +5 (bought the hook) before I saw this was a CK heavy the other way. Right now I'm up 15, though. GL

Against the "Mets' batters" not the Mets

[Dexter]

sat-

ok, i glanced at the games tomorrow and i see tremendous value on the total of 9.5 between the redsox and yankees. (dropped down to 9 - nice movement)

-under redsox 9/-120

tex and balt played to the under on fri - not tonight with with feldman/hendrickson.

-over orioles 11.5/even

[peterpan19]

ok right now we are off to a great start on the two early games...Lowe come on

GL

[tbill11]

Any opinions on the A's today? Braden's a pretty good pitcher and Garza is not Tampa's best. A's have also lost 5 straight and are a home dog. Think I might throw some money on them...

Nice call on Minnesota and the Mets over. Booked both of those, looking good so far.

[showtime2000]

NHL play,

Pit/Phil over 5.5


GLA

[jellobiafra]

Braves bats have come alive! Nice call on that one CK.

[rb4033]

mets go under today...

[peterpan19]

can the mets reliever pull it together today or will we see another letdown...at least today the Mets look like they can score some more insurance runs

GL

[rb4033]

bases loaded any inning.. but can`t score.. mets low..

[peterpan19]

well...8-2 I hope the game is over now...and the over cashed for you guys on it too

and atl looks good too...so a nice solid start to the day for me...now I will take a look at the 4pm games...maybe I find something

GL
