Like OAK at first glance.

No opinion on that total.

both nats and tb numbers drop vs lefties, always like the lefty lefty matchup, solid under ump imo (hasnt been this year but cuzzi typically has good k zone and still calling a good k %)...are you looking for Gio to get rocked playing tb? or confidence in Moore?

I could see a 4-3 game either way. Moore has been very solid in his last four starts, and Gio's regressed a little recently. I'll take my chances with the Rays in this spot.

i hear you (honestly wouldnt want you on my total, have those changed much for you? lol) 7 certainly a possibility but im getting +110 on 7 in what i think has pitcher duel written all over it..

Wow... well kudos for making that many plays and not being completely buried.

You are condescending to many posters based on bad numbers, road favourites, public plays etc, then every few months we'll get a lovely post about how it all too hard and you are thinking about giving it away.

Pride comes before a fall and it certainly is amusing.

stick to fairy ball you f\*g. what the **** do you know about american sports?

Thursday (6-21):

Tampa +123 (2U to win 2.46)

Beat the closer by 12 cents. Loser. I'm assured this wins you bets long-term, but I'm not convinced. So glad I passed on fading Worley to play this instead.

No coin what do yo know about the movement in the Red Sox game? Am i missing something?

lunchbawks · 06-22-12, 02:09 PM

Worley is having an excellent season, he's no longer fade material

Guess the sharps have NO respect for Jurrjens. He was a terrible, got sent to AAA, was bad there and it back up because of injuries.

Razorbacks1 · 06-22-12, 02:58 PM

Speaking of missing something anyone have a clue why Oakland is only -109 with Parker vs SF with Lincecum? I thought the A's would be -130 or so. Guess I'll be dumb and ride with Oakland.

the RL is worth a play at like +190. Majority of Lincecum's 9 losses in a row were all by 2+ runs

I'd stay far, far away from that one. Jurrjens is shit, but Lester is yesterday's news. Who knows.

Red Sox and Over. Sox get one of these raging hot streaks every June or July and it already started

What do you like about the Mets here, just curious.

My take

Batting Cedeno directly before Wright tonight with Torres leading off. It will be unlikely there will be a man in scoring position, not to mention even on base when Wright comes up all night long. I also dont like staggering Turner between Duda and Ike Davis. Really no where in tonights lineup is there a threat. I guess 3-4-5 is good but if the outs work out in the Yankees favor and Wright constantly comes up with 1 or 2 out then the Mets will be really hard pressed to even score 3 tonight.

Niese has been looking pretty solid lately. He's done very well in his two career starts vs. NYY -- including one this season -- and I think he's rounding into form, with just 9 ER allowed in his last 5 starts. Control will be the issue though -- he can't nibble. If he walks 4 or 5, the Yankees will feast. I'm still not completely sold on Andy Pettitte's resurrection either. I'm not saying he can't still be a quality MLB pitcher, but a strikeout an inning? Come on.

Tampa just got hammered. Looks like I'm going to lose again with Cliffy.

the Rangers offense in the summer time is an irresistible force. I would be surprised if they don't score 10 runs today

I'm half tempted. At least considering the COL TT over. Just missed a lot of the value by not taking the Rox earlier. Liked them a lot more in the mid-180's vs. mid-160's.

Nope. Casually looking at the lines and watching NHL Draft.

ATL TT over 4 (1.25U to win 1)

Pauulzcappin · 06-22-12, 06:32 PM

I really like KC tonight, NC.

Did you take a look at the White Sox?

Pauulzcappin · 06-22-12, 08:01 PM

Great game from Mazzaro.

Played Oakland, but didn't get to post it.

Nope -- I'm not a Haren fan at all.
