    CK's Daily MLB Thread Leans for Friday May 1. 2009
    As many of you know, I am going on vacation leaving early Tuesday morning. I won't have a personal thread of my own until August (football season) that is sports related. I will have a running column in the politics and economics section that I will work on every other day once I get back. I will not be answering ANY sports related questions on that thread.

    Instead, I will drop in on everyone else's threads every now and then if I have a Crumbs play that I like and am willing to share.

    I will be on autopilot from now on, playing my system and the JM system with JohnMorr08's filters on the plays.

    This is my off-season. And I will be spending a lot of time on the road and also being the Missus' gopher when the pregnancy kicks in full blast.


    Anyway enough about me...


    Orioles+1.5 +105
    Twins-1.5 +115 HEAVY
    Giants/Rockies under 8.5 -115
    Astros/Braves under 8 -105
    Padres+120 Peavy at this price? Crumbs Play-O-The-Day


    Ponson is an autofade until he gets the boot out of the league. He's too proud to accept reassignment so he will be looking for a job in a city near you soon.

    Randy Johnson always goes under when he faces the Rockies. Why should I be the one to stop a streak like that? I think it's 8-1-1 overall for the under

    Derek Lowe also goes under when he faces the Asteroids, no matter what team he pitches on. Hampton is pitching a l'il better this year, and I am hoping that the revenge angle will amp him up to face his old mates.

    Peavy has a stellar record against the Dodgers. I have to play it again despite the set back the last time he faced them.

    Halladay is good, but the crumbs are better. Plus the O's can knock the stuffing out of the ball. Just what you need when fading the Complete Game King. What I would like to see here is a slug-out with the team coming up last winning by only one run. Only because it's Halladay am I not taking the Orioles on the reverse runline. There are some serious free chicken dinner numbers on the consensus for this game. 75% for Toronto already. Hendrikson has already lost 3 straight to Halladay personally, but he's only given up 5 earned over 12 and a third innings, which isn't too bad. The fourth time will be a charm. Give me the live dog with the warm bats.

          I just can't pay negative anything when I have a -1.5 line. It won't work. I have to go the other way on that one and take the plus money with the Orange Birds.

          I am a little concerned about the other two however. You are cutting into your profits with a +1.5 play on a team that you already have plus money wager on. It makes more sense to take them on the reverse runline and not cut into your profits if both cash. If you win both of those Arizona wagers, you are gonna have a negative effect on your money.


          Why not just play the D-Backs+120 and forget about all of the other shit? Just cut to the chase, babe. If you lose both you could be out of 14.5 units instead of just being out of 5 if you just lose the straight up wager. Just up the amount of your wager on that +120 and get rid of the negative (-170) money. The idea is to collect crumbs when you're right, not give them back when you're right.

          The Arizona reverse runline is probably a big payday. Don't let me play it for you and show you what I mean. You'd better drop that +1.5 and turn it into a -1.5 and get yo chedda baybee.

                Harden + worn out Fish BP......a problem.

                I'm going to look at other games before that. It looks appealing, but it pretty much means Taylor will need to go at least 7, AND the Fish's BP need a hold.

                    Ok shoe..

                    Now you're good to go. I will sprinkle some dollars on the Arizona RRL too when it pops up tomorrow. I see what you mean. Parra is not worthy of that price tag. He is barely a -113 pitcher at best. The -140 line should be reserved for much better pitchers. i find it peculiar that there's a reverse runline for all of the games for tomorrow except for this particular game. There is only 34% on the Snakes. I like this thing of yours. Good find

                      The Marlins already beat Johan Santana twice, you just never know with this team. I don't think the Marlins will win but I think it worth a shot at +245. Marlins are one of four NL teams to have a winning record playing in Wrigley.

                                we play super well at the friendly confines and vs the cubs in general and i've been in attendence to plenty of games where we have no purpose in winning but we have, but tomorrow i just dont know. taylor was HORRIFIC in his debut last week and had no control which cant be present tomorrow cause the cubs bats are hurting right now but the few hits the do get could spell trouble if there are ducks on the pond. like everyone's said, our pen has been used extensivly and needs a good outting from taylor but i just dont know if they will get that tommorrow.

                                good news is that hanley SHOULD be back tommorrow given he was 85% today, but i still havent decided on this game, possibly leaning to an o/u under

(I'm saying this because as an european, I get ESPN america on my cable and I know it's diferent from the US ESPN, so maybe the live games are also diferent....giving false chase games to europeans).

                                            Good question, I am starting my thing today. I will not play any of them that are over -120 for one to score with the vigorish. Meaning that if the line is over -120, then I am playing it flat and just taking my crumbs from the win instead of getting crazy with it. I did not know what kind of influence i would have over the public with respect to my system, and the lines are WAY higher than I have ever seen them since I released it.

                                            As far as the chasing is concerned for live games, I will be around enough to do it on someone's thread. There are enough of my people around to keep a decent thread going.

                                            Right now things are a little testy about my trip. My wife's doctor is a little taken aback by us going into the heart of H1N1 country (Mexico) at a time when Mexican citizens are being instructed to stay inside for a full week in down there. Almost a country-wide quaranteen (spelling?).

                                            Our travel agent is also insisting upon a change of atmosphere as well. She is asking us to go to Hawaii instead by trading in our tickets, etc. and there would be no change in the amount of days that we will be gone or accomodations. And it would me much cheaper she is saying. I actually disagree. I have seen the prices in Honolulu, and I highly doubt that. Mexico is much cheaper.

                                            This is so all of a sudden. The Missus is not pleased. Hawaii is a good destination. I haven't been there in over 10 years. This Swine Flu epidemic is much more dangerous than I thought. I will know more by noon today about the status of our trip.

                                              Hawaii....eh.

                                              How about St. Lucia? It is one of my favorite destinations, and a bit more low key than a lot of the islands. While it is kind of far from you, I don't think it is much worse than hawaii for travel time.

                                              ps. The Swine flu has claimed maybe 15 lives stateside....compared to the 36,000 that the "regular" strains of flu claim each year (mostly the elderly and small children).

                                                Don't you play all of your system bets flat regardless of the line?

                                                      The Marlins are getting +115 on the +1.5 runline. I don't think Harden has earned that price tag yet this year...might be worth throwing a small bet on.

                                                          ck,

                                                          i go to school at arizona state and can say that the swine flu is no joke. There have been signs everywhere and articles in the paper warning about going to Mexico. I am sure that the risks vary quite a bit depending on where in Mexico you are going. Saying a trip to Hawaii costs the same as Mexico seems way off. Either way have fun, be safe, and enjoy your break!!!!
