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?

I don't understand that either. Not only did he keep playing, he increased his unit size on shit teams.

I should have played all of my leans tonight but I only played Zona....

Due for a bounce back, GG... let's get 'em back tomorrow!

I'm playing Oakland tomorrow but Balty can goto hell. Definitely going to take a look at the Angels in that one.

New York hasnt been hitting and Cahill is a good pitcher. Oakland was off today and New York had a late flight out of Tampa. +145 for the team throwing the better pitcher is a pretty decent value.

I bet GG plays the following dogs tomorrow.

Seattle
San Diego
Oakland
Milw.

He will probably play the Marlins as well because they are favored against a better team. Personally I think Volstad and the fish ate garbage so I'm not going to touch them.

Tomorrow could be a dog night.

I'm loving Mariners and Pads tomorrow.

But A's, Brewers, Reds and Astros feel like suicide bets. I wouldn't be surprised if GG puts a +20 on Reds tomorrow. Braves at -120 sure is fishy... but I can't see Jurrjens losing.

I have a confession: I only read these threads for Big D's thoughts. Eff the haters, man, you're $$$.

I agree with you on NYM. That's a good price against a team like the Marlins. Also, I might just say F-it and take Houston at +140.

Tough night, bounce back tomorrow gg

MrXYZ · 07-22-11, 08:38 AM

Getting very close to going under 200 units. A big card today, good luck GG.

GUMMO77 · 07-22-11, 10:34 AM

I smell a big card today as well

Dodger · 07-22-11, 01:05 PM

Anybody on the cubs?

boondoggle · 07-22-11, 01:06 PM

I just put 5 units on Astros...GG always likes the dogs!

Dodger · 07-22-11, 01:14 PM

Two horrible teams could go either way but i think i like the home team on this one... Big Z has had some success against these guys.. My only worry is if they call in Marmol... I just dont like em.

Bravos 84 · 07-22-11, 01:16 PM

On the Stros for 3 units. No way I could pull the trigger on Big Z with that much juice.

usernametaken · 07-22-11, 01:40 PM

I like kc(over) so I'm thinking GG goes with that

boondoggle · 07-22-11, 02:02 PM

astros had bases loaded twice with 0 outs..and scored 1 run....lol.

Bravos 84 · 07-22-11, 02:05 PM

Damnit.... bases loaded no one out and can't score a run!!

I'm still not happy with myself that I actually bet on the Scrubs but I'll take it.

Dodger · 07-22-11, 04:24 PM

Anybody taking the Angels?...

Balt can upset at home. They are not too shabby at home.

The other A team might be a better bet. Lets go Braves...

free tip has been brought to you by a square. Square Monkey

Dodger · 07-22-11, 05:13 PM

lol. Yea just seen the weather in balty its ugly.. stayin away... Braves?... I dunno bout that one Jurrjens hasnt had good succes against these guys and got lit up his last start against the nats... I think i like the cards.. Carpenters been good lately, hes 11-2 with a 2.09 ERA in 16 starts against Pittsburgh, and i think pittsburgh eventually will be the pittsburgh we knew. Well GL bro..

R23k · 07-22-11, 05:20 PM

I will bet the house he is on Seattle like a lot of other cappers

B1AZE · 07-22-11, 05:25 PM

No way he doesnt take seattle are u kidding. He will be on KC, SD and probably Cincy.

With the way things have been going for you lately, GG will probably have a massive night.

At first glance I was on the opposite side of the CWS and Cincy game but upon further review, those lines are really fishy. Why is Atlanta only a slight favorite with Jurrjens on the mound against Arroyo who has been terrible? Rolen isn't in the lineup either. Who wouldn't like the Braves here????? For that reason, I'm not playing it as Cincy probably is the play but at the same time, I don't want to bet on the Reds and watch Atlanta shut them out.

CWS/Cleveland is a complete toss up. The Sox are more talented but Cleveland has played better all season. I'm not sure I can go against the tribe at home.

I like the value on Toronto. There is no way this line should be that high. It's worth a shot. Over might be a better play but it's too juiced for my liking at my book.

I also like the value on San Diego. Their pitcher is "capable" of shutting the Phillies down and there was late money coming in on the Padres.

I was already going to play Mil. and St. Louis.

Rolen and Bruce being out is irrelevant to which side you bet as that's already priced in

Jurrjens is due for some serious regression, reds have a massive defensive advantage and a slight offensive advantage. I don't see how the line could be far off at all
