Funkified plays of the day

cocknocker · 07-05-09, 10:21 AM

D-Backs-103 Serious value for a good pitcher here
Houston-110 Shut out2x in a row with ace on the bump
Royals-111 Sorry ass teams always win more than one in a row
Mets-102 Don't pay attention to line movement-this is the play-look at the price for Santana

I figure that with 3 aces (Haren, Santana, and Oswalt)going for me with great prices, I couldn't help but ride with them today. It is actually pretty rare to get three quality guys like this in National League games going all on one day. With aces you get less bullpen. And the way that my teams have blown leads this year, I need all of the good starts that I can get. I hope the Royals wear those beautiful powder blue jerseys. Those are clean as hell. I think I'm gonna go to CBS sports and order me a personalized one today!

cocknocker · 07-05-09, 10:22 AM

Wow! I just realized that taking these good pitchers resulted in another rarity. I don't have not one + money wager for the first time in a long time!

cocknocker · 07-05-09, 10:25 AM

F*ck that I just can't do it. I'm making a small play on the Mets -1.5 +160 RL. I mean why not? They haven't won a game by 2 in 10 games I think it is....

Mets-1.5 +160

Jimbo42 · 07-05-09, 10:26 AM

I always play a road FAVORITE that has been shutout twice in a row.... think about it... makes sense and is profitable

Houston -110

I am with ya CK!

Jimbo42 · 07-05-09, 10:30 AM

Ubaldo is a bit scary today,imo... he's been pitching much better lately (2.88era since May 1) but good luck brother!

hockeytown71 · 07-05-09, 10:37 AM

I see what you're sayin CK and I'm tailin you with those 4. However, I'm taking a different approach, I like:
Cards/Reds Under 8.5 and 4.5 1st 5 inn
Zona/Col Under 8.5 and 4.5 1st 5 inn
Houston/SF Under 8 and 4.5 1st 5 inn
CWS/KC Under 5 1st 5 inn

Good Luck to all

hockeytown71 · 07-05-09, 10:41 AM

Also looking @ Boston -1.5 (-130)
Cards ml -141 (iffy on this)
Dodgers -1.5 (-125)
ANY THOUGHTS!

Boston is a solid play bro! Just that price is so high... If you can stomach it, Red Sox should get that win...

cocknocker · 07-05-09, 10:46 AM

Looks good. At least you are getting rid of the bullpen liabilities, lol! Billingsley has lost three straight, so it's take the Dodgers or else leave that game alone altogether. Red Birds have bad movement on them but you already know what you're gonna get with Carpenter. Boston you almost have to take the runline. The number is way too inflated. Good luck, H-Town!

Let's get the money, Jimbo!

cocknocker · 07-05-09, 11:01 AM

I am eyeballing the total for the Rangers/Rays tonight. I like the over because the Rays won't leave town easily after two blowout losses and 4 straight losses as a favorite. I say that the Rays get it done tonight, but that this game goes over 9.5 with ease. I see a final score of Tampa 7,Texas 5. I will continue to monitor the total and the side throughout the day, so I won't list these leans as plays yet, but those are the spins that I have on our nationally televised game for the evening.

Beastxxx · 07-05-09, 11:19 AM

IF I had the funds in the us bank I'd take seattle just for the long shot play.

Just me . GL all
I am playing the jays to win also

Dexter · 07-05-09, 11:26 AM

sunday-

(2x) cards -1.5/+100 - carpenter has 1.06 whip in his last 3 (2.29/.81 career vs cincy) and arroyo a 1.97 last 3.

(3x) marlins -1.5/+130 - have to keep riding the red hot bull.

(5x) redsox -1.5/-120 - lester with a 2.50/1.16 in his last 3 looking to stop the bleeding vs morrow who has a 1.98 road whip and 1.68 in his last 3.

i love that theory....maybe jump on teams winning at a 40% or < clip when they win 2 in a row. something like that.

Samson15 · 07-05-09, 11:47 AM

1. Angels ML Risking $495 to Win $300

2. Marlins ML Risking $495 to Win $300

3. Reds Run Line +1.5 Risking $260 to win $200

4. Brewers Run Line + 1.5 Risking $465 to Win $300

5. Yanks Run Line. -1.5 Risking $500 to Win $500

Good Luck Everyone.

CK, why you think the total in the Zona game is 8.5!!! Something smells fishy.

lets get some fish today dexter.. hope you got them last night too

Panekkkk · 07-05-09, 12:12 PM

On the Angels ML also but word of caution: Orioles hitters crush Saunders historically ...

peterpan19 · 07-05-09, 12:27 PM

Panekkkk
Saunders is 5-0 with a 4.15 ERA 1.666 WHIP lifetime vs BAL

D-Backs will get it done and it will be a low scoring game.

I am adding ona a lay on the Astros-1.5+140 also. I think that the double goose eggs will propel them and make them the play of the day today. So I basically doubled down but this time with the heavy crumbs on top!

solobass · 07-05-09, 03:15 PM

CK i am on that one with you, good call.

Yeah, I'm not sure what stats I was looking at lol. Mora and Huff have great numbers against him but the rest of the lineup is nothing special. Unfortunately Roberts decided to have a monster game today.

Panekkkk · 07-05-09, 03:22 PM

A Rich Hill meltdown would be really nice...

peterpan19 · 07-05-09, 03:26 PM

yeah still early but LAA not looking good today...but BOL to you guys

Nice.. Nolasco is a beast lately... Man the Marlins pitchers are starting to turn it around Got Johnson, Miller starting to look real good, Nolasco, and Volstad has great stuff he is just finding himself right now..West the kid they called up is like 4-1, ... This team can be dangerous people...watch out!! PHILLY WHO???

peterpan19 · 07-05-09, 03:32 PM

ricky the bull is on a mission to correct that era.

Panekkkk · 07-05-09, 03:58 PM

Saunders is throwing bricks out there!

YUP i just hope he can keep it up.. its about time this lineup got some anchors in it..

cocknocker · 07-05-09, 04:13 PM

Blue Kings get the job done! And I hate going against the Pales. I got my series win -105 and I also got my two wins as well! I am gonna take the Royals again in their upcoming series against the Tigers. The line is sure to be juicy since it's on the road. I'm taking them in tomorrow's game for sure.

cocknocker · 07-05-09, 04:16 PM

Now the fun begins out there in Colorado as the D-Backs horrid pen attempts to hold the slim 4-3 lead that the team has in this game.

cocknocker · 07-05-09, 04:17 PM

Nice a leadoff single to Fowler. Here we go! It'll never last! man I hate relievers. You're almost SURPRISED when they actually do their job these days

cocknocker · 07-05-09, 04:22 PM

Then a wild pitch to the third batter allowing Fowler to move up to 2nd with one out.
