today not looking like a good dog day

[Crayzee]

like most of you i prefer to bet dogs
friday was great
but today i dont see many i like too much

the only one i like right now is sf giants

[BuddyBear]

Yeah it's hard....it doesn't help my main book is down. Could be a bad omen.

[LT Profits]

You know me, and even I only bet 3 dogs today. I did bet 1 FAVORITE though (San Diego)!

[BuddyBear]

why did you bet SD Long Term Profits? I like WASH here....

[LT Profits]

Wells in great form, Simontacchi not. Padres have lowest bullpen ERA in majors, so six strong innings from Wells should be enough. Wells is 6 for 6 in Quality Starts vs. Nats/Expos. Padres are 21-6 last 27 head-to-head. All things considered, I thought -124 was reasonable.

[BuddyBear]

Does it concern you at all that this is the most lopsided action game today on the board. That is the public is all over SD....plus WASH falls into a strong system today that plays on struggling pitchers.

[LT Profits]

Sometimes need to keep it simple. I am as contrarian as they come, but I still need a REASON to bet the dog. I couldn't find one angle that I use to support Nats here. I wouldn't do it BECAUSE the public is on SD, and if I come across a strong angle that says to play ON a struggling pitcher, I would want a lot more than +116 to follow it.

[BuddyBear]

what do you think of CLEV +109, FLA +147, and the CWS/TOR Under 9 (+105)

[LT Profits]

I agree with both Florida and Toronto UNDER, although I prefer the White Sox side there.

No opinion on Cleve game.

[pavyracer]

I like Tigers, Whitesox, Dodgers, Rays. Don't ask me why.

[LT Profits]

pavy,

I hate Rays as a favorite on principle alone. Plus the Royals have been one of the best bets in the league on the road this year, and yes I had then the first two games of this series.

[EaglesPhan36]

I'm all aboard the D-TRAIN today with the Marlins. Great price and Dontrelle has been maginificent on the road this season and is 2-0 at Miller Park.

[abacus30]

riding 3 dogs today - Marlins, Nats and Braves... and larger on one fav - Tigers

[BuddyBear]

going with Marlins, Nationals (sorry LT), CWS (thanks LT), Cleveland, and under CWS/TOR.

Good luck guys....
