I literally can't believe what I'm watching here. 1st and 3rd, no one out, gascan Wade Davis following up gascan Farnsworth who followed up gascan Cobb, and they literally can't score.

they should be contracted. their fans too.

Knock 'em dead buddy! I like them all! Not that you've asked or need it, but my best bet is SF under 8 (+107). I wish all your bets win!

thanks, Derty. always want to hear thoughts from a sharp guy like yourself. i like the under in Pittsburgh, just like Pirates better and don't like going side and total in same game. BOL today.

2* Cubs team total over 3.5 (-125)

doubling down on the Cubs. now there's a strategy that could go horribly wrong...

Biff, numbers /thoughts on tb/cle? like the under but not a fan of balking bob behind the dish..

it's actually Scott Barry behind the plate, not Davidson (covers has it listed as Davidson, but it's Barry; Davidson is in Philly). however, i have Barry as even more of an over ump than Davidson. i lean under and probably Tribe (tough to back them vs lefty, but they've improved in that department), but passing on total because of Barry. it should be very sunny and there will be shadows at start of game because of odd 6 pm start time. if you play under here, go FF i think.

what do you think of Cards? starting to think hard about Cards + Brewers parlay.

Glad you don't mind my unsolicited advice! :-)

I agree it's pretty difficult to nail both side and total on the same game. I don't do it often, but when it works out that way, I acquiesce and follow through with both bets. I often don't win both and when I hit them both it feels way better than any other side & total from any other two wagers. I try not to involve the emotions, but that's an example that is subtle, but honest. I guess it feels so good because I fool myself into thinking I REALLY know what I'm talking about knowing side and total!

there i go trusting blankets again

and i know better, just lazy this morning...i have to look at stl gm more, they didnt do much against Big Z last time (w/o the errors they wouldnt have had shit) and watching cards play under Matheny is somewhat sickening to me (and to think i used to give TLR a hard time)..jesus freaking christ after a leadoff double by furcal last night he has Jay bunt? seriously? giving outs away in 1st inning? then after westbrook struggled in 6th he leaves him in to hit in bottom of 6th with men on 1st and 3rd in a tie gm (of coarse dp inning over) then westy as easily predicted gets smacked around in 7th...Matheny is a real jackass and im sick of saying "he young and new to this", this shit anyone with half a fukkin brain could comprehend..

2daBank · 07-07-12, 09:29 AM

lean to jays, even tho i dont trust RR and cws are starting to roll again..

2daBank · 07-07-12, 09:34 AM

admittedly i dont know as much about Barry but his k% last few years has been on the somewhat high end so instantly i like him behind dish better than davidsons garbage ass..

gotcha. one thing that i'm hoping is that Zambrano will struggle with Davis' notoriously inconsistent strike zone, and i do like Lohse.

i leaned Jays but crossed it off because of Romero's recent form. last two outings were just terrible, and although CWS doesn't hit lefties well, they are playing well and Romero seems to have real issues.

yea RR is really struggling, seems to coincide w when my brother traded for him in fantasy baseball, lol...

i just havnt gotten far on cards gm and Matheny seriously pisses me off, i do love me some Loshe and w/o checking wanna say he has very good numbers @ busch during the day.. havnt even looked at ump and yea i agree a inconsistent k-zone and the heat prob be enough to send fat boy over the edge..

2daBank · 07-07-12, 10:01 AM

im liking that all the "square books" are juicing over in cle while most the sharper books juicing under..makes sense as i could see why folks would jump to over here...but fact is Moore has been very good from what i have seen of late, while tribe have hit lefties better have they really been lefties with this kind of stuff? would think tb offense comes back down to earth after big production last night...under screaming at me, curious as to what your numbers have it at? 7.5-8 maybe?

2daBank · 07-07-12, 10:09 AM

think it crazy not to consider cincy again tonight..Bailey wont have many problems in that stadium against that lineup, richard has been very good but cincy feast off of lhp..lean under as well but prob feel better just taking the superior team @ very short odds..

2daBank · 07-07-12, 11:37 AM

gonna do a stl/cin parlay, pays little better than mil and i hate Grienke on the road...

sorry, just now saw this. was up at 5:30 capping and took an unexpected nap when i was done. i have that game in the 7.6-7.8 range, so i do think there's significant value on the under. passed primarily because of ump and the fact that the ball should really fly in the heat today. however, i think that under will get some help from the shadows and Tribe being vulnerable to lefties.

i'm really torn on Reds. it's Reds or pass for me on this game, but i do respect Clayton Richard. if i play this one, will play it solo. what do you think of Braves? Hanson solid history vs Phils, Blanton not so much vs Braves and Phils have really been struggling since Utley's return.

newbottles · 07-07-12, 11:47 AM

Biff I am with you on the Mets/Cubs angle but playing it as Mets TT o4.5 +105 instead.

I also like White Sox TT o5 vs Romero.

Giants/Pirates just too tough for me to call today. Same with A's/Mariners. Good luck.

bravos turn into different team on road, think you play atl or pass.. yea richard has been very good, it just reds hit lefties so well and i think Bailey will be fine, you prob right better to play str8..det could be another team to throw in parlay...mil should be fine but Greinke is like jamie garcia, mentally fragile and struggles on road, every time i back him on the road he is bad, that said hou is shit so who knows..

BOL, newbottles. i know how you feel, Jays/White Sox game was too tough for me. too bad because it should be a good watch.

yeah, the Brewers leans is a fade of Astros. they are limping into the break off the loss of their emotional leader, Booger Lee. guess rationale is Greinke > Fister (though not good on road), KC > Astros so am willing to sacrifice the difference between Tigers and Brewers. gotta figure this out.
