Give me a reason NOT to take the Oakland RL tonight

treece · 06-26-10, 03:16 PM

No guts no glory. Go for it.

If Cahil gives up a couple early it wont work

But Pitt is a debacle, I say go for it

I like Cahill a lot. Very underrated in my opinion.

GoggsViggs · 06-26-10, 03:38 PM

like Cahill too. i'm already on the A's RL here. BOL to us bro.

The No. 1 "expert" on Oakland games at covers.com picked Pittsburgh.

suicidekings · 06-26-10, 03:49 PM

I have the OAK RL as well. Solid play, IMO.

Also love the BOS RL

I like Oakland, Boston and the White Sox. Feel like I'm being set up with the A's; probably just overanalyzing.

BOL, sk.

I don't think so. PIT had their best chance last night against Sheets and blew it. I expect them to get swept in this series.

I have the U9 in the CHC/CHW game rather than a side.

I like the under too, but something's telling me to stay away.

I think Silva gets hit pretty hard tonight facing a red-hot AL lineup. He is traditionally a horrible road pitcher, which means he's due for a bomb.

Stranger things have happened... Right now I can't believe that I'm seeing Kawakami pitch 4+ scoreless innings after I took the DET TT O4...

Kawakami's better than his record indicates (that almost goes without saying), and Detroit's been known to completely disappear offensively from time to time.

I skipped this game altogether. I'm actually more surprised that Scherzer's pitching this well against the best home team in baseball.

id load up on the giants....the red sox are beat up...the bullpen stinks right now...and buckholtz is a bit overrated

Looks like I won't have to make a big bet here after all:

Parlay (5 Teams) 06/26/10 14:38 ET bet 5.00 to win 103.54 Result: Pending

Astros(Houston) Banks 2
Rangers(Texas) Wilson 7 06/26/10(15:05 ET)
Rangers(Texas) -1.5 (-150)

Cubs(Chicago) Silva 2
WhiteSox(Chicago) Garcia 3 06/26/10(19:10 ET)
WhiteSox(Chicago) -122

Diamondbacks(Arizona) Kennedy 3
Rays(TampaBay) Price 5 06/26/10(16:05 ET)
Rays(TampaBay) -1.5 (+110)

Pirates(Pittsburgh) McCutchen
Athletics(Oakland) Cahill 06/26/10(22:05 ET)
Athletics(Oakland) -1.5 (even)

RedSox(Boston) Buchholz 4
Giants(SanFrancisco) Bumgarner 2 06/26/10(19:10 ET)
RedSox(Boston) -142

Have this riding on the A's RL, so I'm taking PIT at +1.5 for about 30% of this to hedge. Still rooting for Oakland obviously, but win-win for me.

Nomadik · 06-26-10, 09:06 PM

Fyck so much for my play on the A's RL, Pirates going to win 10-0 now...thx NC

HoulihansTX · 06-26-10, 09:07 PM

At the price... Pirates is the only play.

lakerboy · 06-26-10, 09:08 PM

Dont do it. Always take the pirates on saturdays. Always. Its one of those weird days for pirate batters.

suicidekings · 06-26-10, 09:09 PM

I just found a reason... Those ugly yellow uniforms. However that might disrupt the batters more than anything....

I've also played the Angels O9.5. Hoping these two erase the tough losses on the Marlins & Tigers.

No coincidences · 06-26-10, 09:22 PM

I probably flushed $30 for no good reason by hedging with the Pirates here, but I had to do it just to be safe.

No coincidences · 06-26-10, 11:29 PM

Hit the parlay -- third of 20:1 or more in the last two weeks. Missed quite a few more during that stretch by one as well.
