A gift from me to you.

looks like im not the only one who seeked this one out. i would have hit it harder but the rangers offense has been too cold for my liking so its just a standard unit play for me.

zitos due to get exposed eventually

I wouldnt go too big cus playing the run line at Pacbell Park is scary ....so many one run games there....similar to Dodgers stadium. Giants last four home game results 4-3, 2-1, 2-0, 3-2 ......now you get the picture.

i think the giants had the most 1 run games last year too. not sure if its more to do with the park or just the NL 'small ball' style of baseball though

JMon · 06-08-12, 09:08 AM

The Rangers are 1-10 vs the Giants dating back to July 27th 2006! 0-8 on the road. However we do have different teams here....bol on your play

It's definitely the park. First off it's hard to hit homers due to its dimensions and importantly, the ball does not carry well over there due to the weather.

Harrison blows, and how can a team get tired playing consecutive home games in MLB?

Statistics · 06-08-12, 02:02 PM

Bochy has been riding his starters like a horse, they're tired.

Juice is up to -141 from -126, if you didn't hop in, I'd still do it at -141.

Zito is going to get ROCKED.

ParlayininHTown · 06-08-12, 02:02 PM

The Rangers have never won at Giant Coca-Cola Bottle Park. Granted, they rarely go there because they're not in the NL.

Is there a curse on the Texas rangers uniform in San Francisco?

Players play the game, not the uniform. I laugh every time someone brings up trends with Pitchers versus Teams that date back 5 years. You guys are just lazy bums going to baseball reference and looking up IRRELEVANT statistics. Do some work and do some Pitcher versus Batter comparisons, then maybe you would have something.

This is easy chump change and you guys should have hopped on the train before the juice went up. It's alright, the train hasn't left the station yet, you just have to pay a premium to get a spot now.

Zito hasn't pitched against one decent line-up this season, he's going to get ROCKED. There's a reason 126 million dollars was left off the 2010 WS Roster against the Texas Rangers. This guy might be able to get 86 MPH fastballs against the Cubbies, but the Rangers are a legit team.

Bochy has been riding Arias and Crawford like horses since Pablo went down with injuries, and it's really starting to show with Arias (he'll be in the line-up again, the Giants have no depth in the infield; expect at 1B, where they carry 3 1B, lmao).

Melky pulled a hammy and left early yesterday, look for Bochy to give him the day off.

Also , the books know that Rangers suck roosters against decent lefties. Been like that the past few years and this year. It's because your anchor , Hamilton, is horrid against decent lefties. Sabithia & Cj Wilson proved that earlier this year against him.

Statistics · 06-08-12, 04:21 PM

LMAO, Barry Zito and decent lefties should not be used in the same sentence.

MagicDiceFlow, do you actually watch games, or do you just pull this sh1t out of your ass?

MagicDiceFlow · 06-08-12, 04:29 PM

Hey man, unload all you want. Through my years of watching the Giants , I'm just saying be careful when betting the run line at pacbell park.

hardball · 06-08-12, 04:39 PM

I hope Texas pounds the Giants. But soft-tossing lefties can be their kryptonite....

I'm on the Giants but thanks.

italianbandit · 06-08-12, 04:48 PM

Great call, the market has confirmed this for you. I have them at -1. Good luck.

Statistics · 06-08-12, 06:43 PM

Line-ups are out

Posey out, Melky Out.

Did my homework, now I'm going to enjoy this 3+ unit victory.

MagicDiceFlow · 06-08-12, 07:20 PM

I may take the Rangers later but not gonna get too greedy......taking them straight up......may lay off though if there's late action steam on Giants in the next hour.....GL.

Wow. Sabathia, and Wilson are just decent?

Who is elite then?

Zito's finished. He's going to get lit up, was a couple situational AB's away from getting his face busted open.

2-0 Texas, Giants don't look like they'll hit a lick and Zito is getting hammered.

BigDofBA · 06-08-12, 10:17 PM

FYI, I switched to the Rangers after the lineups came out.

It was posted before the game in No Coin's thread.

Looking good!

kamikazekanesh · 06-09-12, 12:11 AM

now will melky and posey be out again? this could be good for $$$$

Statistics · 06-09-12, 12:12 AM

Melky day to day; Posey will be back in for sure.

Sorry fellas, you missed the train on this one.

My statistical analysis indicates that tmr will be a toss-up; slight lean towards SFG, but it ain't nothing strong like tonight fellas.

Texas -1.5 Runline. Hop on this train before it departs the station, making this a three unit play. Very confident that Zito will get shelled, he hasn't faced a decent offense all season. Giants are tired haven't had an off day in a week.

Great job today!

thunderous · 06-09-12, 10:31 AM

Thanks for yesterday Stats...without reading this thread I would have not played Texas. Yanks and TX along with WNBA made up for what was pretty dismal week. Out of the Red into Black!!
