[Illusion]

I will track everybodies plays, so please make sure you post a line.

Also, I don't mind if you post parlays, teasers, or round robins, but these plays will not be reflected in the standings.

For Thursday, 1 Unit Each On:

Pirates/Duke -122
Cubs/Maddux -105
Marlins/Willis +115
Cardinals/Morris -109
White Sox/McCarthy +160

Utah -7

My poor football showing this past weekend convinced me that I need to keep sharp during the week by betting baseball again!

[Razz]

5* Astros (Backe) @ Pirates (Duke) +115
Quick reasoning behind this play. The Astros have already faced Duke once, and they will be better prepared this time, as teams that face a new pitcher almost always fare better in their second outing. The Astros certainly need to continue winning games, and their offense has actually been much improved in recent weeks.

2* Cubs (Maddux) @ Brewers (Helling) -105
2* Marlins (Willis) @ Mets (Martinez) +115

3* Florida Atlantic -7.5 vs. LA-Monroe
Monroe is bad offensively and worse defensively. Florida Atlantic has played a ridiculous schedule so far (Kansas, Oklahoma St., Minnesota), but playing a downtrodden opponent is the perfect cure for an 0-3 start. FAU played their first two opponents close, but failed to get any victories, because of turnovers and penalties. Now, they come home to beat up on a team that is winless, despite playing a Division-II team.
Prediction: Florida Atlantic 27, LA-Monroe 10

[EBone]

[newb411breaker19]

whats anyones opinions on bruce chen's chances against struggling mussina? im leanin on orioles cuz of the price

[EBone]

Officially, I have no opinion on the game. However, personally, I think the scoreboard will light up tonight. Just an opinion. I don't think much of Mussina. One out of every 3 or 4, Mussina seems to be the Moose of old. But that's about it. I would think the OVER would be a better play.

hey everyone,

Utah -280

indians -280

andrew

[newb411breaker19]

andrew, not bad but you might wanna consider playing the runline when the moneyline is something like -280. If you flat bet just to break even on all your -280 bets you'd need to win 74% of those picks. i normally don't like to play the moneyline when the price gets to -160 and over. i dunnoo though if your good at picking favorites you could do alright just my opinion... welcome to the forum gluck

[EBone]

Andrew,

I personally love Utah tonight, although, I did not make it an official play of mine. Personally, I would've taken Fla. Atlantic though I passed on the game. I actually like the Royals tonight versus the Indians. I think Buddy Bell has challenged his Royals not to hit the triple digit plateau in losses. They will eventually hit that plateau but they just swept the Tigers. I have certainly been known to be wrong before. Just sharing an opinion.

[BuddyBear]

Air Force/Utah Under 55 (-110 @Canbet)

LAA Angels (Santana) -147
