      I personally think that crazyL was trying to find something in this matchup that didn't exist lol , the value was TB bar none ............... but i do agree with him on cherrypickin stats go either way in this game as i saw , but TB looks good right now 4-1 end of three ........... GL crazyL you'll need some luck in this one !

        Sorry I came now, but I was watching the Simpson's like I do every Sunday night.

        I am curiouis how you could handicap this match and know that Texas A) struggles against LHP B) struggles against Kazmir C) has one of the worst pitching staffs in the league D) one of the worst bullpens in the league E) TB is 6-3 this year against Texas and somehow arrive at the conclusion that this was one of the best bets out there.

        I hope you come through, but your thought process/handicapping skills require some revision.

        Good luck....

            Buddy,

            If things were as simple as backing a team because of having favorable lefty or righty records and merely examining their bullpen play, we'd all be millionaires. The value was not with Tampa on the road here, regardless of how "nice" some stats look. As I've said, cherrypicking stats doesn't help anybody pick winners, I'm sure the reasons you laid out are what led many people to back Tampa. I, for one, don't feel comfortable jumping aboard that kind of bandwagon.

            Regardless of if I win or lose this individual bet, I'd still take TX in this spot again and again, best of luck to you on your wagers.

              NICE LINE LOL

              if this fuking clown pitches another inning, its cause his manager doesn't care about winning this game anymore

                  Of course it's not the reason, but my argument is that given how much Texas struggles agaisnt LHP, it seems rather strange that this could be considered a strong play. That's all I was saying....
