Reason to Avoid Kip Wells, Mike Mussina, Evan Jackson on Saturday

Interesting. So bad starters backed by bad pens and/or weak offenses are a go-against situation. I'm going to have to crunch the numbers on that, but there might be something to it.

Yes tomorrow I think Houston is the right side, but on the RL due to volatility.

KC, I'm not so sure about. Jackson is bad but he actually was ok at times in his last start. And KC can match TB's futility in all areas. Their edge in starting pitching tomorrow will be offset by TB's lineup edge. I don't see a whole lot of value with KC, if there is any at all.

And Boston, well I actually think the Yanks are the right side as an underdog, although only a little bit of a decent pick. It should be another slugfest.

Well I am not sure I would go 100% along with that, because oftentimes the selection would end up being a heavy chalk. Still, it would be interesting when you crunch the numbers to see if there are enough small favorites/undersogs spit out to make this worth following.

After that blow up in the dugout between Big Z and Barrett yesterday. I started looking into catchers a little closer and found some very interesting things. Surprisingly, my findings did come across something rather interesting that have those last 3 pitchers on that list LT.

213 Wells STL 2-9 $-831
214 Cain SF 2-9 $-886
215 Reyes STL 0-9 $-1072

The one thing they all have in common is they have a Molina brother catching there games.

Spreaking of fights, after Cubs consessioneers made a killing with Barrett/AJ tee shirts last year, I wonder when the new Zam-Bam shirts go on sale?

**BuddyBear** · 06-02-07, 11:01 AM

I think that fight between Barrett and Zambrano may have been good for the Cubs.

EDWIN Jackson, you idiot.

**The HG** · 06-03-07, 12:08 AM

Yeah, it's Edwin, you nutsack.

Now I see what makes you guys pros. The average bettor is always fooled by this type of situation.

By the way...
Jackson Family just called and said they meant to name their son Evan.

Edwin? Evan? Who gives a crap? There is only ONE Jackson:

Come on, OWNED! You know that guy's not a pitcher, he's a catcher.

Michael Jackson you mean? No, I think he's a pitcher actually. He made love into the children, I believe, but he didn't receive them into him, I don't think. I could be mistaken, but I seem to recall that was the case.

Between the pic of Michael Jackson and taco's infamous avatar, this is a disturbing looking thread.

**LT Profits** · 06-03-07, 01:40 AM

This thread got totally sidetracked, but the fading the three guys mentioned (including EDWIN Jackson...LOL) produced a 3-0 day.

I think everyone here knows how much I love Kip.
