Considering going with the over, but haven't decided yet.

[ryanXL977]

im ridign with the CHISOX only bc krod has pitched a ton lately, vlad is out of the lineup, and they are at home



keep in mind, the whitesox starter is mediocre aT best
lackey is a top 10 al pitcher and the angels are a top3 al team. the whitesox are none of those things. contreas sucks. i dotn care what his numbers are.
but no vlad, no chone and crap at 3b and 2b make the home dog the playhere.

or so i think

The three time these two pitchers faced off against each other the final scores have been:

2008
CHI WHITE SOX 6
LA ANGELS 1

2006
CHI WHITE SOX 3
LA ANGELS 2

2005
CHI WHITE SOX 2
LA ANGELS 3

Now granted all three times they met was in LA.

Contreras @ home this year the combined scores yielded 5,7,14,7 runs while Lackey on the road this year the combined scores were 4 runs as he has only pitched once on the road this year but if you go back to last year Lackey on the road the combined scores were 4,2,3,6 last four road games of 07 he pitched. Looks like O/U 8 the under is the play but at 7.5 I just don't like it.

Ryan I am with you on this one.

Get away day/avoid sweep.

The best player Angels have is out? If so that makes it a lock.
Angels have not been scoring many without him they have a strong chance of losing.

These two met just a little while ago In Anaheim.

May 14,th it was 1-1 untill Lackey was pulled where the weak bullpen of Angels blew the game 6-1.

Lackey is only allowed 7 innings max or 80 pitches.


Go SOX

[ryanXL977]

i just like chisox plus money at home
i think they are the best in the al central if hafner doesnt wake the **** up

[pimike]

I got them at -110
and runline +1.5 at -145

[ryanXL977]

two safe bets

this game will be a one run game
it will go under


i never bet against the angels
ever
today is one of the first times in a long time

[pimike]

Now your scarying me

[ryanXL977]

no need to be scared
i was bad yesterday and only got celts right all day
today i got az and also liked rays but stayed away.

i like chisox but the game is a coin flip to me. all depends on mr lackey

[pimike]

Sox should win even if it is close in the late innings. I do think the pen is better for the Wsox

[nysmoneyman]

playing the no run in the 1st inning...the thinking here is these two pitchers are excellent and can hold the hitters at bay at least for the 1st inning...now just have to figure out what's it worth

[ryanXL977]

well that may be true also!

[j$]

Sox +100 and Sox +1.5 -177

[j$]

Cmon Contreras dont let me down

[ryanXL977]

contreas is not good. i am telling you guys he sucks. but i like chisox to fight hard tontie

[nysmoneyman]

sucked when he was a yankee...numbers don't lie...he's got something going on now

[ryanXL977]

he sucked last year also, and the year before
he has always sucked
but i hope you are right my man.
go chisox

[Deke101]

Angels and the Under.

And No run scored in the first inning -160

[pimike]

His Divorce case is finished he is ok now

[ryanXL977]

numbers dont lie, conrteas has had one- two good years out of 7
he sucks a fatty

[AgainstAllOdds]

I just took the angels first 5

[pimike]

I just took the angels first 5

GL

[AgainstAllOdds]

GL

ty you too...

[j$]

Yes Dye can catch unlike Soriano

[pimike]

He got the first out. They say wind is blowing out a little towards right.

[pimike]

6 pitch inning I like it

[j$]

U see that catch Soriano would have shit on himself

[ryanXL977]

ha
soriano
best dh in the nl

[pimike]

wind acting up on those balls.
Bookmaker had Sox as a fav where did everybody get sox as a dog?

[AgainstAllOdds]

Yea 6 pitches...it wasnt like they were good...all of them were right over the plate...I think if he continues like that he will get cracked

[ryanXL977]

soriano lost a ball in the sun, you cant blame that on him dude

[pimike]

Joe Morgan really sucking up to Lackey

[AgainstAllOdds]

Ryan what do you think about my statment up above? also...I think lackey is looking good too

[ryanXL977]

the thing about the angels is they swing at everything. so you never know. somedays they win and dont hit at all. with them, its the pitching first, everything else later.
the guys who started the game for the angels arent very good hitters, so if he pitches like that to kotchman and napoli,m agree with you. he will get hit

[ryanXL977]

first possible turning point in the game
first momentum swing
there are usually 3-4 per game.
