here are two plays that have great value and are extremely hard to pass up on. going to put 1u on each and hope for at least a split:

1* ~ San Francisco Giants ML (+140)

1* ~ Cleveland Indians ML (+157)

going to post the series here in a bit, good luck to all!

There are a few things to like about your Cleveland game. This kid Gomes is here to stay with 1.54 ERA. His last 3 gms has been very impressive with the 2.21 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and .208 BAA. Couple that with Clevelands hapless opponent hitting a measly .235 recently and scoring at a rate of 2.17 R/gm over that last week.

Zack is not the pitcher he was last year (3.99 ERA,4.79 at home,) and the price reflects the recogition of all his recent awards. Greinke is STILL a formidable pitcher and certainly Cleveland is hardly intimidation, but the price your getting is more than fair in this particular matchup.

Good Luck on your action...

looks pretty strong

thanks for the love fellas, yeah screamin..very aware of what gomez brings and what greinke has lacked this year. also aware of the farm team the royals are using to test out talent after shipping away the talent they did have. i expected a +120 or so dog given the teams but vegas knows they can get their money on greinke from the squares so they'll continue to do that until it's not profitable.

anyways, here are the series to close out the night pending any late plays if the early slate is successful:

1* ~ Los Angeles Dodgers (-210)

1* ~ Atlanta Braves (-270)

1* ~ Minnesota Twins (-160)

the braves are juicy but they're 16-1-1 in NL series and arguably the best home team in baseball. couple those with prado returning and their knack to win along their top notch pitching against a struggling nationals team without willingham as well tonight, should be safe. good luck!

Going with boston with you today!! BOL!!

redsox and marlins came to play and braves got the series started properly after an early deficit. phillies blew that value play open late in the game and indians are tied in the 6th. reds have an early deficit and that twins game will go back and forth all night long. adding one last play tonight:

2* ~ Los Angeles Dodgers ML (-165)

hope everyone's having a great night and we have a big soccer play tomorrow so we'll post that one early in the morning!

good stuff man...i was on those dodgers with you

d14b · 08-18-10, 12:14 AM

thanks for the support. swept the board with the 2*'s and all of the series won their first game and started it off properly for us. the value plays both had a chance late in the game before the phillies broke it open and the indians couldn't produce with RISP but that's expected. back tomorrow with a big MLS play as well!
