[Gee]

Sorry. lot of pent up tiger frustration. uncalled for.

if you rode them against the indians, i don't blame you for wanting to kill them!

[dodger33]

Here we go fellas this is the inning!

[dodger33]

Wow! Harrison is dealing on their souls!

[Clear2Land]

uh oh

[dodger33]

You can't keep going thru that line up and not expect that.

[Gee]

You can't keep going thru that line up and not expect that.

we had our chances as well.

that sucks.

looks like around 5 units + juice lost on the day :/ chasing the tigers could destroy my roll! i hope we give up and try something new tomorrow!

[Hawk007]

Guillen cost us BIG. Bases loaded 1 out and he swings at 2-0.
You better damn well win the game if you think you're better than the team.

hopefully inge being out and galarraga being a call up will shake out the public money on det.. if the public is siding w/ det tomorrow like they did tonight i wont play them but for tomorrows game, texas has the pitching edge,they are the hotter team and there has been a big injury to the det. power lineup w/ inge gone... galarraga pitches well in det and any call up will put his best foot forward to earn a spot.. but before i make anything but a small bet on det, i need to see some overconfidence in tex. betting and some fear in betting det. and i certainly didnt see that in mondays betting on the det-tex game.. just an opinion.. everybody has one..

With all due respect Hawk007, there were several other more legit reason's why the Tigers failed to win game one of the series. I had family at the game giving me play by play, the radio on and watched on the tube (tv). I get you're unhappy with the results as I am. Win with class. Lose with class.

[therber2]

Hell of a lot of value on the Rangers tonight. I'd be careful.

Hate to say...I told you so :/ Certain rare opportunities do present at least a cancellation of inflated public perception pricing which we had here in a small-medium quantity. With betting you can go two ways or a nice mix of both:

1. You can say, this game is worth even more than an inflated line is saying and see the house.
2. You can call bluff, and say yes this team may be worth a bit more than the other, but not that much so I'll earn more in the long run going with the value.

I was rooting for the Tigers for you...but the better team trumped the situational circumstances.

Inge has a broken bone in his left hand and will be out 4-6 weeks. The Ranger tosser who toke it in the head, is doing well (as can be expected). Ka-boom had a very strong game and not just at the plate - he saved at least a half dozen outs from poorly thrown balls from the infielders. The large concern is BB who did not hit the ball hard Monday night. I don't know who will be called up yet - they might go a game with a short bench. Thanks for your input Dan, it's appreciated.

whyyyyyyyy didn't damon come home?? the ball was always dropping in.

not a bad pick. we had our chances to win and didn't. Its getting frustrating now that it has happened 5 games in a row :/

whatever happens... lets play a diff team tomorrow

Couple ofo things here Gee. 1st and foremost I know you don't want to hear this but he will most likely have a play on them tomorrow. His system works and right about now is the time people stop believing in it and this is why they are unsucessful in following him. Terry trusts in his system and thats why he is who he is.
Secondly from a baseball point of view i do see your point in sending damon but the odds of Guillen hittting into a doudble play there are a lot less than taking the chance at sending the runner home with 1 out and running your team out of the game. Hindsight is a bitch but thats the way baseball is played. Any other 3rd base coach in the league would have held him up because you have to trust your guy can score the guy from 3rd with one out otherwise he wouldn't be in the MLB.

[sweethook]

you guys are on the ball. i like your work gl.

I have these as your numbers:

Keep plugging away, bud. Grinding it out like always.

hey mate. all respect for Terry and his systems and fully expect to bounce back. Statistically, the tigers were definately the play today and they may be tomorrow (i doubt it though!), but i'm still hating the idea of another 10x on the tigers. 5 multi-unit losses in 4 days will do that to you (4 losses for this thread). im going to keep tailing this half, but buggered if i'm going to watch the game if the Tigers are the play tomorrow! i might actually get some work done!

on the second point, i'm not annoyed damon didn't get sent home... i'm annoyed he wasn't rounding third and well on his way home as the throw came in. i'm not in his shoes, but i thought it looked like the ball was definately dropping short (and I think Cruz may have faked him out to hold between 2nd and 3rd).

hell, i was jumping up and down in front of my monitor when the ball was struck - thats how obvious I thought it was that it wasn't carrying. anyway, shit happens. lets claw things back.

edit: just had a look at the write up of the game.. from the lips of damon himself: "Boesch hit the ball off the end of the bat, and when I looked up, it was in the lights," Damon said. "I just couldn't get a read on it. That's the one thing that you don't want to happen in a situation like that, but I made the mistake."

Definitely can't blame him. It was a savvy play in right field along with the fact that he honestly didn't see the ball. He must have been thrown off because it sounded like solid contact or something. He even shrugged it off because he knew there was really nothing he could do about it. That's baseball.

blame, unfortunate, unlucky, mistake, savvy play, its just baseball, didn't see the ball - none of that bothers me

9 times in 10 he gets home - thats what hurts.

[VegasPlayer]

Hey, you've got to give some props to the reliever Harrison. ERA approaching 5 on the road. He throws 80 pitches, gives up 2 hits, 4 walks and ends up with 4 innings of shut out ball. Quite remarkable against a team needing a win and having several opportunities to get it. I was at work and only able to follow the extra's. Looking at the Box score, it appears the 1st 3 innings really hurt the home team and the back to back to back HR's were almost a curse. Would have been nice to spread those out over a couple of innings with a man or 2 on base. But, we all know it's impossible to plan that.

AL Central contenders are getting kicked around a bit. It's grind it out time for the next 45 days or so and whoever recognizes their own vulnerabilities and makes the correct adjustments will be looking mighty good come September.

Quick question for anyone that's around. I wanted to send you a message, TA, but the inbox is full as I expected it would be. If I remember correctly, your email address is your username here at yahoo, right? I think that's what it is, but I want to check before sending an email. Can anyone verify?

[fataliz]

tough couple of days TA. keep your chin up

[JR007]

There is a certian amount of "randomness' ie noise....that is basically uncappable.....the whole idea is to come out with the intrinsic value of a given game...the oddsmaker sets the line then tweaks it to adjust for other variables..ie (public perception)....that is why you see the sharps "scalping' the lines off the overnight......read ganchows post in the capper think tank to calculate the no vig line..ie percentages....i found it helpful...(knowledge)

[JR007]

Lots of activity on the Braves total...currently...off the overnight

Thank you dodger33. I do trust it for I know it works. This is about the time when people start having doubts, which I understand but if they'd check out last season's thread, they'd see similar patterns.

I have these as your numbers:
Jul 20, 1-1-0, 50.00%, -6.50 units, 60.94%, +6.19 units

I have the same numbers. Thanks for seconding it.

To me, the lighting and sound were the larger issues. While the 9 made the move he never had any doubts - it was a good ploy on his part.

Correct.

tough couple of days TA. keep your chin up

You won't see or hear me complaining about last night's non-winners. The Tigers failed to execute when they had their CHANCES to put the game out of reach. I posted this earlier and it's worth a repeat, win with class and lose with class.

[Clear2Land]

Good luck tonight TA. Hope things turn around for you and everyone!

Aside from what you decide to play I was contemplating a 2 team parlay with the Rays and Cards. 100 to win 136 on the ML and 100 to win 289 on the RL. Which one of these do you guys think have more value. Maybe a smaller play on the RL and more on the ML? Feedback much appreciated.

Why would you want to make yourself win TWO games to get paid? Singles are the better call Clear2Land in my opinion but if you then of course to you.

Thank you JVP3122, I will get to it tonight prior to dinner - as is the case with first timer senders.

This is very true. I just have trouble putting down -200 on the rays. Ive seen what the Orioles did to my Rangers! I have a good feeling about tonight. Hope you all do as well.

I get the -200 thing but, here's a way in which you could still take them; make the play for a 50% wager. You still have the better team and if they happen to not win, you're not out a full unit. Thank you and I hope so.
