Colorado is very overrated offensively and really struggles versus righties. Haren has been a top five SP in MLB this year. Your statement has zero validity. I'd like to see a real argument against taking Arizona. I mean their team OPS is .684 on the road that is HORRIBLE. Arizona enjoys the same offensive advantage Colorado does when playing in Coors, if not more; the DBacks are a fly ball hitting team and that plus Coors Field equals value."Things happen for a reason, they say, but I say there's a reason things happen"

ZBOIZ I have yet to see solid reasoning from you on any plays. For you to brag about making thousands a week on here is hilarious to me. Do you not realize how empty of a statement "I really dont like bettin against teams that can put 20 runs up in a inning!" is? You are talking about EVERY major league team there."Things happen for a reason, they say, but I say there's a reason things happen"

2005
Total ERA: 3.73
August ERA: 2.76
2006
Total ERA: 4.12
August ERA: 4.13
2007
Total ERA: 3.07
August ERA: 4.15
Last year he faded in the second half and sure, maybe he tired, but there's no way to prove that. However, I can prove that it likely had to do with regression. His 2007 first half BAbip was an extremely low .234, and not surprisingly it was an extremely high .357 in the second half. His August BAbip last year was .329.
Yes he has struggled in two starts in August this year, but his BAbip is .457. That is out-of-this-world high. He has been getting very, very unlucky."Things happen for a reason, they say, but I say there's a reason things happen"

You don't have to convince anyone, but either post a real argument or post nothing. You are offering nothing with these hollow one-liners.
"I really dont like bettin against teams that can put 20 runs up in a inning!"
"This game could easily go over!" in regards to Carolina@SD
This forum is for intellectual discussion about betting so you offer nothing when you say stuff like that."Things happen for a reason, they say, but I say there's a reason things happen"

i was referring to 07 and 08Comment -
that may be true
i am doin az tmrw, but watch haren and see if he is the same pitcher
statistical aberrations happen every single day in mlbComment -
why dont you post pre august era, and post august era, thats more appllicable than the numbers you showComment -
I guess for YOU I have to deeply state facts! OK ! FOR YOU i will do that!
With the Panthers and Chargers game, the total of 42 can reach the over. The reason is because the Chargers has one of the best offenses in the league with LT(You ever heard of him?). They also has Buster Davis and Gates. The Chargers this year is on a mission to win the Super Bowl especially coming up short the last two years! Look for them to average atleast 28 points a game with the weapons Rivers will have around him. Now when you add the Panthers in the mix, they will not have Smith but they will have Muhammed who have potential to be a threat when he have a QB who is healthy! Also the Panthers run game should be improved this year with Deangelo Williams being the # 1 back, and Stewart who they drafted out of Oregon!
If I had to predict the final score it would be 35 to 14!Comment -
Now with Colorado and Arizona!
I'm not saying this is a bad game but I'm saying I dont like putting money against a dangerous hitting team! Everyone knows Colorado is one of them teams that can explode! Yea you can say all MLB teams can explode but common sense will tell you that other teams has a higher chance of exploding on offense than others. Colorado can be loosing by 3 runs in the 8th and put 5 up the next inning. They do it all the time!Comment -
this isnt the old colorado team that averaged 6 runs a gameComment -
I appreciate it. I like to discuss. If I put out a thoughtful argument for something, I expect people who reply to do the same. I don't want you to think that I am here to bust your balls, because you can post what you want, but I personally get annoyed when I attempt an in-depth discussion and I don't get anything good back. I respect your opinion and I have seen that you post winners.
As I said in the NFL thread, Gates is coming off a pretty serious injury, along with Rivers and LT, and he may not play that week. The Bolts will also be missing their center. In addition, the offense is going through a transition in terms of how their offense operates; ever since the Chargers have had LT (of course I know who he is, I am a Chargers fan afterall) the offenses has run through him. Many two-back sets, usually with a fullback, and runs on first and second down were very predictable. Now Norv wants to air it out, and with Rivers, Gates, Chambers, Jackson, Davis, and LT, who can blame him? But offenses often struggle early on, especially when implementing a new offensive philosophy.
And don't forget the Panthers should sport a tough defense. I expect their unit to rebound from last year."Things happen for a reason, they say, but I say there's a reason things happen"

i wouldnt be suprised if any team won any game, ever, in mlbComment -
No, because this start is in August. I know his September ERA is high, like in August, but so has the BAbip. Last year he was extremely unlucky in the second half, although it could have been predicted. This year his first half BAbip was .256, a little more reasonable than last year, so the regression should not be as extreme."Things happen for a reason, they say, but I say there's a reason things happen"

maybe his fastball was slower, maybe his curve didnt break

dunn is better than holliday at coors? thats not true at all, not close to ttrue id guessComment -
Comment -
holliday has, unarguably, the biggest gap in home road splits i have ever seen
and you cant prove luckComment -
So Coors gives Holliday supernatural powers that no one else gets when they play there?
The best way to explain BAbip extremes is luck. That's basically what the stat is showing. It has been proven. Read up on it if you wish to educate yourself; there are plenty of great articles on the subject."Things happen for a reason, they say, but I say there's a reason things happen"

everything is luck, or random, in baseball
the ball bounce, the homer off the angels reliver in the 11th or 12th was out by 2 feet
thats baseball, thats sports. you cant quantify it no matter who tells you that you can.
and holliday has the biggest home road splits i have ever seen .find me a bigger gap of player currently
i challenge youComment -
If anything Coors gives Dunn more of an advantage because he's much more of a fly ball hitter than Holliday is."Things happen for a reason, they say, but I say there's a reason things happen"
