MLB Leans~Thursday 6/4

[Dexter]

Thur 6/4-

magic +6 (3x) - lakers need to prove to me that they can beat the 08-09 magic. lesson learned in the cavs/magic series.
_________________

mets (ML) - pelfrey has a 2.18/1.01 in his last 3 and pitched 7 scoreless last year in pitt. ohlendorf has a 6.11/1.58 in his last 3. mets should bounce back off johans loss.

astros (RL - 2x) - rodriguez has a .79/.88 at home and the stros are 6-2 in his 8 career starts vs the rockies.

cards (RL - 2x) - carpenter has a .95/.73 in his last 3 (2.47/.88 career vs cincy) and harang has a 6.61/1.78 in his last 3

over tigers - the dtrain is on the bump and the wiseguys have already popped this total up to 10.

over twins - carmona has a 10.33/2.56 in his last 3, while baker has a 5.21 era last 3 (whip not so bad)

[Dexter]

what the f??!! there was like 9 runs scored in the first 3 inn bos/det, and the game stayed under??! jeez

[jellobiafra]

astros (RL - 2x) - rodriguez has a .79/.88 at home and the stros are 6-2 in his 8 career starts vs the rockies.

Impressive numbers for that randomizer.

[ragiche]

The Big Unit's game 300 winner,looking good.

[cocknocker]

Giants got Randy some runs. It looks like he's gonna get it!

[cocknocker]

If only it were out here and I had that stub for the vault

[Vreston]

Any thoughts on the Phillies - Dodgers game?
Both those teams are hot and both pitchers have pretty high eras.
Maybe this one goes over. Any thoughts guys?

Well, you're talking about 2 of the best young LHers in the game. Kershaw has been fantastic his last 3. If you take out Hammels getting rocked by WAS last time out, he's been great for several weeks now. He has also completely dominated the LAD. Kershaw has struggles against PHI. If I was betting this one I would lean toward the Phils based on the two pitcher's career past performances vs. each other's team.

Good luck.

Thanks for the feedback. You're the under expert. I don't know if I'm playing it yet though.

I don't know about expert. I've lost 2 of the last 3, but I've won 6 out of 9..... we'll see how it goes. Thanks though.

Climbing back on my UVA bandwagon. They play the 1st game of the Super Regional at Ole Miss tomorrow at 2pm EST on ESPN2.

UVA announced today that super-freshman lefty Danny Hultzen will start game 1. This kid is 9-1 with an ERA just over 2.00 on the year. I think Ole Miss will be slight favorites based on seeding and homfield. Line's not released yet, but when it is.... you know which side I'll be hammering. You'd be wise to tail me on this one fellas. I sense a run of destiny out of this club. I really do.

[cocknocker]

How the Red Birds had the bases loaded and didn't get a score is beyond me...

[jellobiafra]

I just added :

PHI/LAD under 8


This has a lot of the elements I look for.... if you throw out Hamels' last time out. I trust him and his track record to believe that was an anomaly. The trends aren't really in the under's favor here like I like them either. PHI tends to go over playing the NL West for one thing. And these two teams have gone over 10-2-2 last 14 in LA.

Oh well. They don't call it gambling for nothing.

8th place hitter popped out and then carpenter hit into a dp....i caught that inn...

[Panekkkk]

when did cinci even score that run? didn't notice that....

come on carp close it out!

[Panekkkk]

Beautiful! That helped =)

Anyone know the weather in Wash? Is that game going to continue? And after 5 innings do they call it if it can't continue and will bets count?

[jellobiafra]

Sides count. Totals will not.

[cocknocker]

I would like for the Giants game to be called. The darn Braves game was already called

[Dexter]

-The Orange County Register reports that Angels SP Ervin Santana admits he isn't all the way back from his elbow injury, but isn't too concerned. “It’s not the same. I’m throwing 88-90 (mph)," said Santana. “I have my confidence but my velocity is not there. I’m not worried about it.”

[SoonerGreg]

Question:

What happens if the Giants game gets called. They have completed 5 innings. Does it count and we cash the ticket or will they reschedule it?

[SoonerGreg]

Sides count. Totals will not.

Thanks.

Puck play tonight,

Pittsburgh -135 (seems like very few have any confidence in Pit, surprising since last game was not one of their better one's. )


MLB
Atlanta (tailing CK and Jimbo)
SF (Tailing CK)
St.Louis -1.5 (tailing CK and Dex)


GLA

Thanks CK/Dex for St.Louis.

Pittsburgh cashes the ticket!

[Dexter]

Fri 6/5-

over mets - redding has a 9.20/1.90 in his last 3 and martis has a 9.56/1.56.

cards (RL - 3x) - delarosa has a 13.50/2.33 in his last 3 (6.27/1.82 career vs sl) and wainwright has a 2.38/1.10 (.69/1.15 career vs col)

tigers (RL - 2x) - santana is still not right (see above post) and sports an 11.08/2.30 in his last 3. verlander has a 1.89/1.05 in his last 3

yankees (RL) - price has to deal with yankee stadium on a friday night in just his 3rd start of the year. no longoria for tb, and sabbathia has been in a groove (2.86/.95 last 3 and 2.44/1.03 career vs tb).

mariners (RL) - something is not right with liriano. 12.00/2.58 in his last 3, and hasnt gone past the 4th inn in any of those games. both pitchers have faced each other twice this year. its hernandez's turn to win now back at home (2.98/1.07 career vs the twins)

[cocknocker]

Not quite sure what I like for tomorrow yet. Will have to wait until the slugging % update comes out for tomorrow. One that stands out is the Mets. Redding is ready for a correction.

[jellobiafra]

I'm gonna roll with TEX/BOS under 10 to start.

I also kind of like TEX to win and CLE to win both as dogs. Might play them both and hope for a split and profit.

[jellobiafra]

SFG game 2 just cashed. This is turning into a nice day for me after a bad start with that early under. Hit SFG both games, I'm on a LAL ML/under parlay and I've got this PHI/LAD under that looks promising.

[cs11787]

Im tired of these Delayed games! I had SFO ML and RL and I called my book and said the ML would get paid but the RL would be a push/cancel! Whats up with that?!?!?

[Dexter]

ok, i think im done betting orlando

[pho3nix32]

ok, i think im done betting orlando

lakers in game 2 as well

[shoebox]

mr Denver F#ckers!


How the playoffs been treating you....

[jellobiafra]

I just added :

PHI/LAD under 8

Cashed. 1-1 on unders today. Now 7-3 since tracking them. Still not a trend, but a good start...

[cap10]

fyi
every book ive ever used has a rule that a run line must go minimum 8.5 innings;; standard procedure

[cocknocker]

Okay, I've got it. For Friday, I like

Red Birds-1.5 +125
KC/Toronto under 7.5
Arizona/San Diego under 7.5
