~~~~~~2010 mlb~~~~~~

[rydaphotoguy]

I will be posting my plays here this season. I feel I have insight that could be useful and I also feel that I could use some insight on some games. So opening day tomorrow and excited as hell. Here we go.

NYY @ Boston

I see Yankees being a far better team looking at last years statistics. I also see Sabathia improving this year and Beckett who posted a 1.73 era in 2003 and 2007 post season and posted a 7.71 ERA in 2009 postseason. I can see this being his first real off season.

Sabathia is 3-0 against Sox in the last three and two of the three were shutouts. Last matchup between Sabathia and Becket in Boston was Aug 23 2009. And Yankees won 8-4.

Last three games for Beckett against Yanks is 1-2.

I am rolling with the Yanks here.

I will also be going with the under in this game. I don't think Boston will score more than 2.

It is making me nervous though that last two times these teams met on opening day. The score each time was 9-2. I am not going to play the under quite yet. Going to look into it more.

Yankees (-105)

BOL to everyone tomorrow!

[rydaphotoguy]

Tried to copy and paste players averages against each pitcher but didnt paste right.

[rydaphotoguy]

Updated picks

Yankees (-105) 50 to win 47.62
Yankees -1.5 (+155) 47.62 to win 73.81

No Play on over or under although I think 7 is scored. 5-2 is my guess. But who knows. BOL to all!

[rydaphotoguy]

[rydaphotoguy]

Yankees -1
0-1 -97.62

Looks like we butted heads last night and going against you on a couple today also. Just responded to you on your face book page, and sorry it took me so long. I know your a Braves fan, wondering if that plays from the heart or just backing D Lowe. Was surprised he had success with the Dodgers as I really never thought much of him early season with the SOX. Wonder now that he's been around the National League awhile if the hitters start catching up to his junk. My Cubbie play is backing sweet Lou and Zambrano the flake. After looking at Gamehunters baseball strategies I think i'm going to be looking for value over the long haul with the dogs. We'll see how it turns out after a couple of weeks and I might go back to a streak system I played last year if I start losing too much. BOL on todays plays I like the Rockies and Padres a lot.

[rydaphotoguy]

I just checked messages and didn't get any. ????

I saw that a lot of good cappers were on Red Sox. I thought they were all crazy. But Youkillis hit 2 doubles and a triple resulting in 6 runs. I guess it worked out for them. lol.

I told myself I wasn't going to play any Braves games. I think we will come out ahead. I created -1 line and created more value.

I don't have much numbers to support my pick so probably a homer play. lol. Braves should take it down. We will see.

I am the same way as you. I am going to cap games at beginning and if I lose money I will be looking for a system. Its good to see a familiar face here. Good to hear from you. San Diego I think will come through today in a big way. Hope we can both cash in today. I always feel better about a homer play when cubs are on the other end. lol.

[rydaphotoguy]

Good to see the Phillies bats have showed up. Hope they keep it up.

[rydaphotoguy]

Heyward is a beast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[222bad]

Back in the black Ryda. Can you believe how many games went over today? So far it looks like the two 9 run games we're the only ones that didn't go over. One push in the Rangers game and the Tribe got shut out. Seems if it keeps up you're better off creating value with the totals rather than giving up one run on the sides. Leave it to you to go outside the box again and figure out reducing lines like that. Something to look into for sure. I'm sure you heard that Marley's okay. Both Tmpeus and I have the Dark Side Blue Devils tonight. Can't stand that team. BOL if you've got a side or total in that one. I need the Mariners in the late game tonight, but it seems to easy and everyones on it. Hope it's like Philly or St Louis was today. Just printed out tomorrows lines and pitchers and will look it over good while I'm watching the game. If you didn't get my message it's probably because I'm a dope on this computer and I probably, somehow deleted it. Keep it going and get hot my friend. BOL

[rydaphotoguy]

222bad I was noticing that as well with the overs but I am trying to keep all those big trend ideas out of my head lol. I will definitely be watching it though and also over under in first 5. But I don't have the bankroll now for that. I have decided to cash out from cbb and start mlb with 1000 and follow strict money management system. I will up plays at certain amounts of bankroll. Till then I am going to bet 5% or around that on each game. I played too much on Yanks. I tried to get a jump start but didn't work out lol.

Yeah I saw that Marley was alright. Tough break to both of you on Duke. I head very very small wager on under just for action. I was split on how it would go and couldn't pull trigger on either. Mariners are lookin good so far buddy!

I actually learned reducing lines like that from someone in NHL covers. I did it a lot last season. And I will get a lot of push's but like today and yesterday it did nothing to cost me money only made each win worth more.

Mark Buehrle is one of those pitchers who is either on or off and today he was on. BOL to you tomorrow. I am going to start looking at the games. You liking anything for tomorrow? I will probably play some totals in NBA as well.

[soaked in sweat]

congrats man.

[rydaphotoguy]

soaked in sweat Thanks buddy!

[SKiLLsSoLoN]

ATL is looking like a strong team this year!

[rydaphotoguy]

SKiLLsSoLoN I hear ya buddy! I am stoked after todays game. I look at Heyward and think McGriff the crimedog has come back. He is a beast. I hope they pull it out. I have future bet on Heyward for ROY. Would be cool to win one for Bobby's last year. BOL to you tomorrow!

Mil/Chi Over 187.5

OKC/Uta Under 210.5

SA/SAC Over 193

[222bad]

Your the totals expert in the NBA Ryda as I don't even follow it much. Can see a pattern to what your doing though and hope you hit. MLB card looks good and I'm feeling pretty much the same on those games, but probably adding the Yanks. Still think that minus Jason Bay the Sox's bats don't come close to the Yanks this year. Lester's tough at home but A J's no slug. Not sold on the Sox's bullpen either, until you get to Delcarmen and Papelbon. I always thought that Wakefield would be a good middle reliever if they had a catcher that could handle him and that he could give them back to back days work and lots of innings. I know they've tried it, but just doesn't seem like they ever really gave it a good chance. Seems like either injuries to starters or catchers that couldn't handle him have always cut the experiment short. Not a fan of either team, but being from here I seem to get a pretty good pulse on both of those teams. Be catching you later to check things out. BOL Can't seem to get the icons to work I just keep getting descriptions of them when I click on. DUH

[KANSAS24]

DONT WORRY! PRETTY GOOD SO FAR!
I WILL START POSTING ALSO-GL

[imaturd]

Hey Ry, I made it over here. It seems to be a little congested. Also I changed my username.

[rydaphotoguy]

222bad The only thing that scares me of Burnett is over 14.00 ERA at Boston. I think the over might be a smarter play but Yanks should be coming back for revenge. Jason Bay might be gone but Youkillis looked damn good last game and was resonsible for 6 runs himself. BOL on whatever you decide

That is weird about the icons. I just click them same as covers and it works. BOL today buddy!

Kansas24 Thanks buddy! I will head over and see what you got today. BOL.

imaturd It is a little congested feeling at first. Once you find your way around I think you will like it a lot better. BTW is this kurtiejoe?

[rydaphotoguy]

Will most likely regret this play but I have talked myself into it.

Orioles -1
29.50 to win 78

[222bad]

Might jump into the fire with the Orioles also Ryda. Liking the over 8 1/2 a little more than the side though. Can you get reduced run lines? Think that if you can there's a couple of games that look tasty; Orioles over 8 1/2 , D'Backs under 9 1/2 and the one you just mentioned Yanks/ Sox over 9 1/2. Going to start posting here soon, probably tomorrow as I'm going to keep posting on covers until I have a losing day. Hope I just didn't jinx myself writing that, but it seemed to sound like I thought I might lose. Can't think like that as we both well know. You have to think positive in this game or your done. BOL catch you later.

[EXpertcapper]

GL RY in all your picks

I am on the other side with Rays tonight - 1 1/2 -110

[bretb27]

i like everything but the orioles lol.. but hey if the rays shit the bed i'll pull for the orioles by 2

[imaturd]

Yeah its me Ryda. I'm on Balt. small play & Brewers big.

[rydaphotoguy]

222bad It is a longshot for Orioles but that is why it pays so well. lol. I wouldn't count out Millwood here. He is not great by any means but he can pitch well and stats moving in the right direction last year. And Shields proved last year that he can lose to the Orioles as huge favs. Line was -270 in Tampa Bays favor and Shields lasted 5 innings and lost to the Orioles 8-7. Also I didn't like what I saw in Shields last half of season. 5.16ERA 1.5HR/9. Again I still know I am going out on a limb here but just giving some reasons that pushed me to take the play. BOL if you jump in the fire. lol.

EXpertcapper Thanks buddy. BOL to you as well. If I don't win I hope you do. lol.

bretb27 BOL to you today buddy. Orioles is a long shot for sure but couldn't get away. lol.
