continue to fade him? or do you think he regresses to the mean and rounds into shape.... I mean he isn't over the hill yet..... any inside info on arm or shoulder troubles?

Silva

Got the Stankees at EVEN money today because Beckett was on the bump.

Chi_archie · 05-08-10, 01:32 AM

yeah fading Silva and Livan Hernandez are first on my lists

Chi_archie · 05-08-10, 01:32 AM

and maybe add Brian Burres to the list with a bullet

Is there a more over priced capper than GOLDENFREAK?

jasonw · 05-08-10, 01:35 AM

Eh, i wouldnt fade silva, he's actually 3-0 this year, but i think his contract is a bit inflated. thats okay though b/c bradley is a huge **** up and im glad the cubs have rid of him.

Chi_archie · 05-08-10, 02:01 AM

Jay, do you think Silva is gonna win more than 12 for the cubs? do you see his ERA staying south of 4.5?

the guy is VERY hittable when he goes through common foes of the central for the second time I'll be against him every time

Livan is throwing 86mph right now I think he is underrated for the time being.

Beckett's having a rough start for his season. Let's see if he'll be able to improve.

Beckett is back and only -120.

Slim · 07-23-10, 09:32 PM

Beckett already gives up a run in the first.

Slim · 08-03-10, 05:44 PM

Beckett wayyyyy over priced tonight.

Problem w/ Beckett is he doesn't know how to not go balls to the wall. Great ones know how to get through the season not putting all they have into every pitch. When Beckett tries that he gets rocked, and when he doesn't do it for too long he gets beat up and has to pitch feeling like shit or go on the dl. Tremendous post season pitcher, but the problem is getting him there and healthy

I do enjoy his press conferences though. Books should put over/under lines on F bombs dropped

Slim · 08-24-10, 04:43 PM

Beckett is -200 tonight. He has an era near 7.

Slim · 08-25-10, 02:49 PM

That was why Beckett shouldn't be -230 against anyone.
