    Atlanta O/U 29-34
    Boston O/U 27-32

    Combined ERA 8.25

    Home Plate Umpire - Gary Darling O/U 4-6
    Darling has tight zone if you clocked him as I have. I have him as an Over ump.

    You don't have to pay an Under premium on the line.

    Under money at 71%

    All bias toward the Under.

    Consider all the under bias and my season long clocking of Darling, load up on the Over.

    Red Sox Over 8.5 -110

    Thats a ballsy play considering that Lowe and Beckett are on the mound. I took ATL ML today, as my single bet of the day. But I wouldn't dare take take over. But they don't call you the Contrarian for nothing. Gl today

    Thanks for dropping in. Just look at the Cub/Indians game yesterday, it was definitely "the game that can't go over". I would not put this one exactly in that category but you can see the method to my madness. I really like Darling behind the plate on a under bias game. His zone is tight and frustrating. Tune in and see.

    Selection

    Brewers/Tigers bring an angle that I have not discussed with the SBR family. The angle is the following: When the ML % money is greater than 50% on the favorite, and that favorite has less than 50% on the RL money percentage, you play the ML favorite.

    Brewers ML 54%, RL 33%

    Carpenter last outing pitched against the Church of Cliff Lee, so he is going to get a big pass with the square money. Bannister will give the Cardinals problems, especially with there recent hot bats.

    Pirates last night did not play well but with a steady outing from Morton the Rockies are due for a close one. The price on the Rockies hype brings us contrarian on the Buccos.

    Brewers -110
    Royals +155
    Pirates +150

    Pair, how do you like white sox as a contrarian play:

    * their bats are cold;
    * Cueto has lowest ERA in NL, 3rd in the league

    Good points to look at, but the next question is how is Cin against left handed pitching? I see Cueto going 7 innings and giving up 3 runs.

    It's funny that you asked me about this game. I was capping it stating the same thing. However, it goes contrarian with an Over play.

    There comes a night when mostly everything goes real bad. Most people will not take the time to castigate themselves but I will do the pleasure. The contrarian angle, sucked wind creating a negative production both in units and monetary accumlation.

    Over Red Sox 8.5 -110 (L)
    Brewers -110 (L)
    Royals -155 (L)
    Pirates +150 (L)
    Over Reds 8 (W)
    Under Athletics 8 -110 (L)

    Will you guys let me get away with one of these nights or will I be put into bashers jail.

    Stay threaded and stay contrarian
