Im on COL, from my own plays, but this game is freaking crazy.

The Braves just keep finding ways to come back. I am on the Braves, but I must admit that I was afraid after looking how much Greek put on COL.

watch out. he will start to win and people will gush again

**boondoggle** · 07-21-11, 05:21 PM

looks like early games will be down ~25 units...I am really thinking hard on skipping the night games.....

**boondoggle** · 07-21-11, 05:28 PM

I am chasing..dumping 25 units on yankees...shields has been owned by the yanks...but i'm square so I will prob lose this and be 50 units down for the day...lol

Wow, I'm chasing Texas' winning streak. Outhitting the Angels 6-1 and still losing the game. Angels took the lead in the second without even getting a hit. Unbelievable! It would be a sad way to lose their streak!

What streak were you chasing there boss?

Probly not the best idea, boon. If you keep chasing, than more often than not, you're gonna find yourself in a huge hole. The obvious pick is the Yankees because of how both pitchers have done against the opposing teams, and also how Shields got shelled against the Sox last home game. Wouldn't be surprised to see the Rays pull this one out, though. The under might be a better play.

Ha, my bad, just saw where Texas lost last night 9-8. I passed on the game last night, but they were up 8-3 or something like that when I went to bed. I just assumed they won, I guess.

Granderson isn't in the lineup.

**tony_come** · 07-21-11, 06:01 PM

i like the rays

thursday

**BigDofBA** · 07-21-11, 06:07 PM

I think I like Tampa and the under but I'm not playing anything tonight.

I went 1-2 on the day and I'm just not feeling it. I'm ok being down merely 1 unit for the day. Tempted to take Arizona later but not sure. I know Greek is on Mil.

**Bravos 84** · 07-21-11, 06:16 PM

Took the yanks, a square pick I know, but CC is just too good against Tampa in his career and Shields is just terrible against the Yanks in his. Maybe seems too easy though...

Go Yankees!!!!

**boondoggle** · 07-21-11, 06:26 PM

anyone taking tigers and verdy tonight? Is milw due to get beat tonight?? Thoughts?

I'm on the under tigers and zona later. Pavano pitches well against Detroit, so I'm predicting a low scoring game. Greinke is terrible in 3 starts against Arizona and Kennedy is a good home pitcher this year.

Live to fight another day.

**snapperman2** · 07-21-11, 06:44 PM

REST OF THE CARD: ........10 * MILW + 100....5* TB + 125....5* LAA - 120....5* UNDER 7 gl

This is what posted in Twitter 5 hours ago. He got the last 2 games right and TB is leading by 1-0. Will Milwaukee cash?

**BigDofBA** · 07-21-11, 06:55 PM

Texas should have won that game. LAA only had two hits and their only run was unearned bc the centerfielder dropped a routine pop up.

Anyway, this Tampa game is long from over.

The Mil/Zona game is a total coin flip. I'm leaning Zona but if I play it, it will be small.

Laying off losers is just as important as hitting winners.

**GUMMO77** · 07-21-11, 07:40 PM

Anyone else on the BREWERS tonight? Think that's my play, but the way my day has been going you might be better fading it.

I'm leaning Arizona but I'm not sure if I'm going to play it. I was leaning Tampa and the under and I laid off. It's looking like that's going to hit.

**boondoggle** · 07-21-11, 08:40 PM

is this what GG is seeing...

MIL are 10-3 in Greinkes last 13 starts
MIL won last 9 straight when Braun in lineup

**Dodger** · 07-21-11, 08:41 PM

Lets go Brewers!

**Cross** · 07-21-11, 08:59 PM

Is GG up last couple days, I've been out of the loop.

**Bostongambler** · 07-21-11, 10:36 PM

In Boon's mine, ( tiny as it is), he is up.

**Double Bogey** · 07-21-11, 10:56 PM

Sounds like boon is putting in Overtime to cover today's losses. Ouch

**Bravos 84** · 07-21-11, 11:05 PM

Rough night for Greek tonight

**Cross** · 07-21-11, 11:09 PM

OUCH! fight gg, come back strong!

Holy sh it! Is that accurate?

GG in a slump is an understatement...he couldn't pick a winner with just one team playing...

the 230 is from his records..he has mentioned being up 440+ units this season...my highest total for him is 401.05...i fixed the statement.

Time to break out the good rum Boon.

**AnonymousAnomaly** · 07-21-11, 11:22 PM

Is this not just the law of averages playing out on a grand scale? I mean seriously you can't expect anyone to keep winning 20 units a night.

**GGZOLA** · 07-21-11, 11:24 PM

can one person other than me take a day off? I'm as sick as they come but seriously doesnt anyone get worn out day after day?

I have days especially this week where I thought I should take some time off but a late-night win always has me being optimistic. On another note I thought GG said a week ago he was done for awhile to minimize losses? I have nothing against the guy but he has said this isn't his time of the season and he's bleeding money so why push the envelope?
