Bankers weekend baseball extravaganza

[CappinTerp]

Lol, you have known me too long! Shhhh

[shocka1212]

Pretty sure all my losses this week thus far consist of 2 stinking Phillies games I whiffed on side and total, blow me.

Royals saved me this weekend

[2daBank]

What's up everyone. Needed a extra recovery day from weekend but ready to get back to it. Time to get little bookkeeping out of the way 1st..

73-53 +25.69 before Saturday's action. 3-3 on Saturday (with 2 more losses coming on a stinking phils game, twice last week got the double whammy in Philly I'm bout fed up with that team! Lol) still turned little over half unit profit

Thread total now sits at..

76-56 + 26.26

Gonna start working on wed card now.

[JerseyGodFather]

Welcome back! Hope you had a great weekend and I'm definitely looking forward to talking some winners

Was looking at zona 2marro as small dogs but man when cederstorm behind the plate the home team freaking 32-11 last 2 years. That honestly not something I look at a ton when it comes to umps but that record kinda stands out! Sheesh..

That does stand out Bank, but Kuhl been quite the gas can this year.

[2daBank]

Chisox look like a play to me, debating whether waiting get is a better price. I'm far from fond of backing pelfrey but this be chisox 3rd lhp they seeing in a row and they been great against lefties, not like price or even sale had success, feel like offense should be primed and ready for Pomeranz..

Yea that mainly why I like zona. Kid gets hit, struggles w command, and simply isn't giving many innings. Can't see him having lot of success vs dbags lineup.

8/31

Phils/fish un 8 -105.. no interest paying redic juice for the 8.5. Phils offense dogshit, both sp's solid and in limited chances vs respective teams we talking a combined 80 or so abs against and a grand total of 2 extra base hits! No reason both don't give us 6+ innings of good pitching here. Don't love either pen but they shouldn't have to do a lot of heavy lifting..

What about betting the FF instead since there bullpens are shaky?

Obviously there times I use ff for numerous reasons and avoiding pens certainly one of them, in this instance I didn't see a reason to wait for ff as I actually prefer full gm here.

Nola like many starters often takes a inning or so to get things going, I could see few early runs and once settled in we get a string of goose egg innings. Also think chance total moves down or price gets steeper so by time ff opens could be low and or pricey compared to full game. Although fish offense been heating up if our starters do their jobs and have us a lower scoring affair going into the 7th I'm just not scared they all a sudden get it going too much late..

Good explanation. I can get 8.5 -115 right now I'll jump on it

I'm liking the d backs, cubs and nationals as well

I lean zona but as I mentioned not exactly thrilled w ump and how well home teams have done when he calling balls and strikes.

Shouldn't be any surprise I have no interest in scrubbies or nats. Way too juicy for my taste.

I'm playing cubs/nats on the RL. I never bet anything over -140 if I like the matchup I'll go with RL

I didn't look deep enough to know if either would fit my criteria for a rl. Gl

Muts awful expensive considering brew crew has touched degrom up pretty good last 2 times they have faced him.

Thanks for your insight banker. Any thoughts on your cardinals tonight?

really hard to justify them laying any number here. Short handed, playing poorly, struggle vs lefties, no success against ryu (not lot of looks at him tho, but also type of lefty that generally gives them problems).

Honestly only reason I'm not on lad is cause I just feel like cards pull it out w strong Martinez showing and just enough offense. Don't think that fan talk just kinda what I expect but certainly doesn't justify price.

Dodgers only playable side imo, surely chances of winning better than odds indicate. Advantages everywhere outside starter and offenses kinda even that out. No problem w under, long as both starters give enough and gm close to where no bad pen comes in should stay at or below 8. That would prob be only play I lean.

Also pitched deep into the 8th last start.. wouldn't be surprised if he got lit up today

[2daBank]

Adding to cards thoughts reason under isn't a play for me is I don't trust ryu much and despite cards issues w lefties it doesn't always make a lot of sense, outta be pretty stacked right handed lineup so they could get to him as he not been great. Problem is half these right handed bats border line big leaguers at moment, I'm not sure on few guys availability (gerko, piscotty) so if I was inclined to play total I'd wait for lineups..

Does he have history of struggling after long outings?

[2daBank]

looks like price dropping on cards as I was talking bout, no surprise, lol. Don't think lad nearly as attractive where line has dropped to.

I was all over zona until I read this. Great handicapping I'm most likely going to stay away. 32-11 last 2 years is crazy

[shocka1212]

not necessarily but he hasn't gone that deep into a game all year.. Braves knocked in about 5 after he went 7 earlier this year and although Mets put up 16 that game, just don't see it happening again...

Question boss, please excuse my ignorance, but does that make the Pirates a play? just want to pick your brain/way of thought

i honestly don't think it all that big a deal, just kinda stood out. If I had felt more strongly about the play it most likely wouldn't have influenced me. There were few other things didn't love about play, dbags kinda resemble Rockies teams of old this season with really bad road splits and ripping cover off ball at home and when they go to coors of course.

Think I prob explained in my last post as you were posting this. Certainly wouldn't play a team based on anything like that, there was just enough overall to make zona not as attractive as other plays on the board.

Thanks for the response BOL today man..

[shocka1212]

Philly is absolute dogshit.. our under not looking good

Bingo

[2daBank]

Leans were better than plays on wed, hats that shit. Lol. Had vehicle issues yesterday and left me with no time.. I'll update record later when I have time..

Cardinals +154.. neither team playing all that well at moment but lackey laying this number? I'll gladly take my chances with Lynn and cards..

[mkracier]

Agreed on the side here the price is absurd for Lackey. It's cards or nothing in this game. What do you think about the under?

Also - taking a strong look at the Rangers later +109 with Darvish vs. Keuchel - 79% of bets on Houston and this line has moved from Texas +115/+117 around the market to +109 now... interesting

Far as total I'm not sure. In this park with these 2 pitchers think there just too many ways they could get to 9. Both clubs scoring 4 wouldn't surprise me in the slightest ( kicking myself for not playing under last few dodger games here in stl, lol).,

I havnt had a chance to look at any of card yet, just saw this line in chicago and had to grab it.. gonna crack a beer and watch cards game, I'll start working on rest of card while doing so and get back to you. 1st thought without any looking I'd say darvish at plus money certainly tempting as ya know I'm not big keuchel fan anyways. That said don't rangers really struggle with lefties? I'll look at that game 1st..
