Great PEP talk Razz.... I'm fired up and ready to contribute...

My best bet would have to be under 10 for pirates and rockies

both offenses leave more to be desired and that number seems WAY high...

[TheIntegrityKid]

The pit col game added up to 10 today... does anyone else really think they are capable of 10 runs two games in a row?

[Razz_Donkey]

I think it can hit 10 TIK. Both teams batting over .300 in the last 5 games, slugging near .500, playing in coors field which is the most hitter friendly park in the game, and I believe PIT is starting some pitcher that I have never heard of...

[TheIntegrityKid]

Pit is starting Charlie Morton, whom they got from the Braves. Pretty solid. He had to come out of the game vs the Braves tho with a stomach ailment. We can move off that game tho...

[TheIntegrityKid]

How about Lilly vs the Tribe?

The Cubs rallied today and have the better pitcher... Momentum has to be with the Cubbies... is -175 too much chalk?

[Minkus]

im cappinf cubs game, i didnt get to the pirates yet tonight...i keep losing concentration

but so far, cubs/indians under 5.5 FIRST 5 inings

[lakerboy]

ok u guys asked me to help. the plays are the yanks, cubs and reds and if you dont want them thats fine. my strongest play is the reds

[TheIntegrityKid]

The only thing about first 5 is that my book or DJ's book won't let us use that in a parlay...

[Minkus]

Indians wont get much runs if any within the first 5 innins, lilly owns them at home turf.
Ohka(lol at the name) yes as a lose this season, but he bounced back and is pretty solid, to keep it low scoring within the first 5 innings

Last game for OHKA WHIP 1.000 & LILLY WHIP 1.174

[Minkus]

The only thing about first 5 is that my book or DJ's book won't let us use that in a parlay...

so play them straight

[TheIntegrityKid]

I love the Cubs pick...

Yanks vs Josh Johnson scares me... Cueto has had a great season. Should get the win vs the WhiteSox, altho Richard is a nice surprise

I could roll with any or all of those picks. I'd tread lightly on the Yanks but then again, I wanted Fla with Sean West and was wrong there...

[Minkus]

So far cubs/indians under 5.5 first five
Cubs ML

[TheIntegrityKid]

so cubs first 5 and cle/chi under for the first 5???

[TheIntegrityKid]

Should we look into TB vs NYM... Johan has been struggling and Shields is very solid...

[lakerboy]

the a-rod benching was a spark- take the yanks all weekend for the rl. The cubs will sweep the indians and the reds are money against chiwosx

[Minkus]

Should we look into TB vs NYM... Johan has been struggling and Shields is very solid...

Doing it now....

and no its
Cubs ML
Cubs/Indians under 5.5 First 5

[TheIntegrityKid]

some info on NYY vs Fla

Johnson has gone 3-1 with a 2.02 ERA in eight starts at Landshark Stadium this season. Burnett is fairly comfortable in his old digs, posting a 28-17 record with an ERA of 3.20 in 62 starts in South Florida.
Burnett’s familiarity with the stadium has no doubt influenced LVSC in making the Yanks $1.20 road favorites with a total of 8 ½.
It’s not a stretch to see the Fish pull this one out as they’re 5-2 in their last seven meetings in Miami against New York…that includes the 2003 World Series. The ‘over’ has gone 7-2 in the last nine home tilts for the Marlins against the Yanks since 1999.



id roll wit the yanks, cuz johnson has to lose sometime, right? but maybe we should consider the over/under in that game....


im ALL FOR lakerboy's Cubs and Reds selections tho.... this yankee one leaves me puzzled

[Minkus]

Mets/Rays

Both pitchers coming off a terrible last game performance, RAYS bats ARE HOT

Over 5.5 first 5

[Minkus]

Mets-Santana

Despite his first 3 years in the major leagues, HIS WHIP has not been as high as it is now, since then..


Lakerboy....relax...cap some games dont worry about who i might or might not be

ok bro- mets will win

[Minkus]

ok bro- mets will win

that i believe, but the first 5 innings has to be well over 5.5

what do u think

[TheIntegrityKid]

You’d want to believe that Santana will have his way against the Rays at Citi Field, but the numbers don’t support it. He’s just 3-2 with a 2.79 ERA in seven career starts versus Tampa Bay. Plus, Joe Maddon’s crew is hitting .286 against southpaws this year with 29 home runs and 124 RBI.
Something else to take into consideration is that Tampa has won three of the last four head-to-head meetings with the Mets. The ‘over’ is 3-1 in those contests. Also, the Rays are 6-3 in interleague play this year and 18-9 over the last two seasons. New York, on the other hand, is 4-5 versus the AL in 2009 and 13-11 since last year.

[TheIntegrityKid]

I like TB... how about an over in this game?

All the more reason to bet the over 5.5 first 5

Or just straight up over as well

[lakerboy]

nah it willl go under 5.5- i see 2 runs tops

come on bro johan will pitch good after a bad outing- plus shields has a 3.6 era

[TheIntegrityKid]

You guys really think Johan is gonna pitch like Johan???

[TheIntegrityKid]

Johan has given up 17 earned runs in his last 3 starts and the Rays have Great bats and are good vs lefties

[lakerboy]

You guys really think Johan is gonna pitch like Johan???

yes he is yes

[TheIntegrityKid]

As if the losing isn’t bad enough, New York also has to figure out what is going on with Saturday’s starter, Johan Santana (8-4, 3.29 ERA). There has to be some worry for Mets fans with what’s going on with their ace. Santana lasted only three innings after giving up nine earned runs against the Yankees on June 14. And he’s surrendered 17 runs total in his three starts this month.

so what he is a legend- all greats have bad times

[TheIntegrityKid]

I love

Cubs
Reds
Rays
Nyy-Fla Under
Pit-Col Under

in that order... i doubt the pit-col under will get any play, and maybe not the yanks-fla but those are my fave 5 plays
