    Good for you. Contrarian angles and factors don't come easy. Sometimes late line moves in RL as it relates to the ML are factors.

    I am proud that some people in this thread are figuring out contrarian plays on their own.

            Fives- I understand that you are in the contrarian war room of the tower all day and night crunching sabermetrics data and anaylizing angles to come up with your picks, but how about throwing us late night contrarians a (reduced juice) ML pick for the next day once and a while. You could post this pick with the discretionary label of "late night pick" for us true die hards iching for action.

                Tough to do. Don't want to break with my comfort level. Everyone can wait.

                        Lights have been on in Uganda now for two hours and earlier this morning i caught a sight of a low flying play, almost below the new super strength radar Pairs installed here a few weeks back. However, it came up on screen as Harang at home to Jurrjens and the Braves as a dog.
                        Well, i zoomed in and thought i'd seen a mirage but sure enough, Harang at 4-0 is a dog at home with early money on Atlanta.

                          Also..... this is taken from covers.com:

                          The Athletics are giving up just 3.09 runs a game, best in the American League, while scoring 3.64. They should be 13-9 despite the lack of offense but are instead 11-11. The Athletics' offense ranks among the bottom half in the AL in all categories but its biggest weakness is a lack of power as their .354 slugging percentage is 12th in the 14-team league.

                          A resurgent Brandon McCarthy, back in top form after years of injuries, is the starter who figures to gain the most if the Athletics enjoy a market correction. He is only 1-1 but has an outstanding 2.10 ERA through four starts. The Athletics are just 1-3 in his starts and -216 against the line.


                          With all that, and the Angels receiving all the early love at home tonight, i have to bet the A's as a small favourite.

                          Let's not forget here that take away Weaver's 6-0 and the Angels are just 7-10 on the season. I would have liked McCarthy at a slightly higher price but the bookies must appreciate his pitching going into Anaheim today

                              Good morning Gentlemen. The Contrarian Observation Tower is working hard this morning to sniff out some winners. The coffee is a brewin and so is my brain. Let the capping begin.

                                  SD & A's are currently my leans based on the early warning system installed as a result of me being wide awake whilst America sleeps on the overnight lines.

                                                          The Athletics are giving up just 3.09 runs a game, best in the American League, while scoring 3.64. They should be 13-9 despite the lack of offense but are instead 11-11. The Athletics' offense ranks among the bottom half in the AL in all categories but its biggest weakness is a lack of power as their .354 slugging percentage is 12th in the 14-team league.

                                                          A resurgent Brandon McCarthy, back in top form after years of injuries, is the starter who figures to gain the most if the Athletics enjoy a market correction. He is only 1-1 but has an outstanding 2.10 ERA through four starts. The Athletics are just 1-3 in his starts and -216 against the line.


                                                          With all that, and the Angels receiving all the early love at home tonight, i have to bet the A's as a small favourite.

                                                          Let's not forget here that take away Weaver's 6-0 and the Angels are just 7-10 on the season. I would have liked McCarthy at a slightly higher price but the bookies must appreciate his pitching going into Anaheim today
                                                          This bet is looking even better - McCarthy is getting bugger all of the money yet the price on him grows further away from pk.

                                                            I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you didn't like fading Cliff Lee last night?

                                                            Anyone heard from the SteamChaser since last nights burial at the hands of Omar Infante?
