    Leaned SF, but I've already lost enough with them for the series.

    I don't like the Tigers' matchup tonight. I could see an Oakland/Detroit TT under play.

      OAK -130 (2.6U to win 2)
      DET TT under 3.5 (2.4U to win 2)

      If it loses, at least my Tigers are in the ALCS.

        Looks like we are on opposite sides, never used to happen very often

          I always like making those types of bets. GL. It's a win win either way.

            Yeah -- just a gut feeling mlb. Baseball karma for Albuquerque's stupidity. Tigers tend to struggle with lefties, too.

                    Thanks mlb. Might have to give the Tigers a roll of the dice tonight. They can hit Griffin; just not sure about Scherzer and his health.

                    Also lean O's. Not sure on the other two yet.

                        The Cards hit Jackson hard last time they faced him.

                        I like it.

                          I'm going against everything I know line-wise with this one, though. Pinny closed at +106/-113 vs. Blowdog's -102/-108. That's normally an auto play on the favorite. I just hate Edwin Jackson. I think he's a bum. I'll take a seasoned vet like Carp all day in this spot, even if he's a shell of his former self. Plus, why are the Nationals a virtual PK at home? Initial line speaks for itself, at least in my opinion.

                              Carpenter isn't a shell of his old self. He may be a bit rusty bc of the injury but he carried the Cardinals to the World Series last year.

                              If he was able to beat Halliday and he Phillies in a decisive game on the road, I like his chances against Jackson here.

                              It's starting to freak me out a little how this year's post-season could mimick last year's post-season for my Cardinals.

                              Barely get in the playoffs, have to play the team with the leagues best record in the first round, have to clinch the series on the road, then possibly face a team that won their division and owned them in the regular season in the NLCS.

                              Of course I'm getting ahead of myself but you get the point.

                              Also, I like how Carpenter comes back from season ending surgery and Strasburg shuts it down completely healthy.

                              Carpenter has two rings....

                                I'm still not crazy about a lot of decisions Matheny makes, which I think will ultimately lead to their demise.

                                With that being said, I'm not about to bet against proven champions -- even though the cast is different.

                                  I don't think the Cards will repeat but I like how they step their game up when it's all on the line.

                                  It doesn't matter what pitcher they are facing or where the game is.

                                          Yeah, rough night for me between this split and my Tigers gagging thanks to Valfatass pulling his usual batting practice bullshit. I knew Jim Johnson was a fraud. Fvcker cost me a ton of fantasy money too, then the season "resets" and he becomes Jim Johnson again.

                                            Not really sure what to do about tomorrow. Gut says Nats and Reds, but no momentum for either team. Might fade my Tigers just to be in a win/win spot. Would love to trust Baltimore vs. Hughes, but after tonight....

                                            Ugh. Probably should just pass altogether.

                                                What u think about the Reds Nocoin? Even with Cain on the bump, I think it'll be hard to keep the Reds bats cold 3 games in a row at Great American. I don't think the Giants will have as much success against Latos. Night and day from the type of pitcher Leake is. Leaning Reds bro, what do u think? Is this a stay away game for u?

                                                  I actually really like this play. There's been something special about this overachieving team all year. I think they'll give whoever they face in the ALCS a real run for their money. Their rotation is not the days of Zito, Hudson, Haren, and Mulder, but these kids can pitch.

Even with Cain on the bump, I think it'll be hard to keep the Reds bats cold 3 games in a row at Great American. I don't think the Giants will have as much success against Latos. Night and day from the type of pitcher Leake is. Leaning Reds bro, what do u think? Is this a stay away game for u?
                                                    I lean Reds and Nats, but I'd basically be spitting in the face of momentum. Giants are managed better than Cincinnati and the Cardinals know how to close. The Nats don't.

                                                      At least I'm going to beat the closer here, which has meant so much in baseball this year.



                                                      CIN -124 (2.48U to win 2)
                                                      WAS +102 (2U to win 2.04)

                                                      Hoping the home teams show up today.

                                                        I like the Giants and Cards. Gl anyway.

                                                        NLCs between the past two World Series champions?

                                                          Wouldn't surprise me. Not really even sure why I'm playing either game. Both look like toss-ups to me.

                                                          Something tells me we both go 1-1 BigD.

                                                              Well, my Giants bet looks pretty solid.

                                                              It will probably be the Cardinals that lose since that's my team.

                                                              I played the Giants because they had momentum and Latos was on the mound. I learned my lesson long ago not to back Latos. The minute you do, he gets shelled.
