Update 40 of 148 have been sweeps so far this season. 1 out of every 3.7 series.
I'm going to start reading the local papers and blogs on teams before I wager on them.
Maybe I'll get some more insight there.
It's obvious players are hurt, unmotivated, or have no leadership in the clubhouse or in upper management. Look at the thing with Griffey in Seattle. These guys are professional and they'll tell you that all that matters is winning when in fact they really don't give a shit about it as they get paid either way. Yes, there are some who have a true passion for the game, but I would say most are just trying to keep from getting hurt, most are protecting their skills from the younger players, and alot are lost causes because they can't juice up anymore. Bottom line is, the public will figure this all out eventually and stop buying tickets. Problem is, the players gettin the money won't have to pay the price, it'll be the young guys trying to establish themselves and the managers that will get sacrificed.

Thanks TA...Every once in awhile, history repeats itself. I will see if I can find out some more, "Stupid facts" to add to the thread today...

**wagster71** · 05-14-10, 10:17 AM

Tyler,

As far as Harden goes for Texas....He lost on 4/7/10 to Toronto..3 ip, 3R, 1 ER, 1H, 5 BB's and 6 K's. He pitched against Tallet for the Jays. On the other hand, Moyer for Philadelphia has a lifetime record of 4-2 3.20 ERA--1.164 WHIP and a team record of 6-2 when starting agains Milwaukee.

Hopefully this info helps in your decision.

May i suggest the Nationals tomorrow fellas. +225 at some places. The way Livan has been tossing this game should be no where near that high! I also like the M's. Fister goes deep into games and will give them a good shot to win it.

I had them last night, and I'm gonna ride them one more game.

**BillyCostigan** · 05-14-10, 02:16 PM

By now you ought to know and realize family, to me, will always come first and if you don't , sorry but where you been? Friday is a double-digit day is all I can and will state at this time. Hope you and others understand.

Worry not, they are the exact same teams and wagers.

TA,

Do your plays move the lines or something?

I like your style, Tyler. I've always been a fan of playing dogs. Some of you guys amaze me by playing loads of plays a day with big chalk and still managing to turn a profit.

Thanks man, been getting burned by some heavy fav's lately. Needed to switch it up a little bit, not saying I won't take any favs, but I'm gonna try and mix it up a bit more and make sure there is value in my plays.

**vic** · 05-15-10, 12:27 AM

Nice come back TA. I hardly ever post, but always check TA & Co. before I place my bet. Hope everyone on here had a positive night & BOL tomorrow for all of us.
