I wrote this in anothe thread:&#xD;&#xA;C.C. May be 0-3 BUT he was going against beckett in those games. Lackey is nothing right now compared to him. Also, C.C. only gave up 1 run in 5 2/3&#x27;s innings in one of those games. &#xD;&#xA;Lackey also got lit up by NYY this year and gave up 6 earned runs.  &#xD;&#xA;You really cant over look their recent performances either. Just in their lst 3 games CC has and ERA of 2.55 compared to Lackeys 6.23.&#xD;&#xA;So a lot of people are basing their picks on CC having 2 bad starts with 6 runs in each game...However, I see:&#xD;&#xA;&#xD;&#xA;-CC&#x27;s over all AND recent number dominate lackeys. &#xD;&#xA;-CC only gave up 1 run in 1 of the three games he played this year against Boston. &#xD;&#xA;-Boston wont have Beckett helping them. &#xD;&#xA;-Within the last 5 games NYY has outscored Boston 19 to 18 WTHOUT including the 18 point game against Chi Sox.(so yes, the 19 is from only 4 games)

I really liked Si1ly&#x27;s post on this game. This is what he wrote:&#xD;&#xA;"I&#x27;m going to keep this one pretty simple.  In one hand, you have CC Sabathia, who has lost to the Red Sox 3 times already this season despite only having given up 0,0,2 runs in the first 5 innings of those games.  In the other hand, you have John Lackey, who&#x27;s day ERA is 8.1 and has given up 9 home runs in 11 home starts.  The wind is blowing out to right field today, which the Yankees will love.  You can count on Lackey to give up a donkey at some point early in this game.  You can also count on CC Sabathia to be dominant through the first 5 innings.  So there you have it:  if CC Sabathia can out-duel John Lackey, this bet is a winner.  Pretty simple, right?"&#xD;&#xA;This is an excelent angle imo. I would probably bet the first 5 if I werent just betting for fun today. I want to see the whole game and not have the whole 2nd half if it loses lol.

Well then whose offense DO you trust?  The high ML games are the Rangers (#3 in runs scored) and the Tigers (#8 in runs scored).

CloserX · Answer

lol Your right man. Maybe I should trust them. My opinion is bias sometimes based on having been burned multiple time from them.

haha your right though, Im not arguing. They just arent my favorite teams to bet RL's on. ML's area differant story.Just me bro..

GL today though!

CloserX · Answer

actually to correct myself. I would bet on rangers RL if I liked the game. Detroit RL&#x27;s scared the hell out of me though lol. &#xD;&#xA;I may actually look further into texas.

MGD · Answer

I went against the grain in this one and took a solid home team at plus money...  I am not saying you are (or sil1y - like his write ups too) on the wrong, just felt right at &#x2B;140...  As always, GL Closer, love your work!!!

MGD · Answer

Sorry if I was not clear, was in reference to the NY/ BOS game...  THX and again, GL!!

CloserX · Answer

You have NO IDEA how bad I wanted to play Detroit today. However, the last 2 games were decided by 1 point. Also, Duffy did a pretty good job in his only start against them this year. I think he only have up 2 earned runs in 6 innings.

Just not my favorite spot for an RL. I have REALLY been trying to keep myself from playing games I am not 100% confident in. If been running this way for the last 2 days and have totally turned things around. I was playing 11 games a day. Now Im trying to keep it to 3 or 4 and be really picky with those.

TO be honest, I dont really like NYY today but just have people over and thought I would bet for fun.

Ill be rooting for you if you go with Detroit RL though! Hell, out of the last 10 games they played, Detroit covered the RL 5 times. So with Verlander, there is always going to be value. GL!

I was originally leaning Boston till I looked into it further. lol once agin I am a little bias on this pick.. I have been "Lackey&#x27;d" too many times. Not in the mood to make the same mistake today. Todays my rare day off from work lol, I dont want to be pissed off lol.GL

Hey neighbor, Philly&#x27;s moneyline was not bad at -120 , i took  Philly again today after checking out all the news that theres no suspension yet on both teams.Victorino is in for todays  game after all the mayhem that happened yesterday.Good luck .

MGD · Answer

I hear you Closer!!!  I have yet to bet Boston with Lackay on the mound before tonight...  I am figuring he is much better than he has been pitching, no time like playing the Yanks to step up and earn some respect.  I am also liking Detroit rl as T-Lock mentioned...  TB rays feels right, ST loui good situation for them IMO...

TodaysLocks · Answer

I have done the same.  It has worked for me as well.  I play 1-4 games per day.

CloserX · Answer

I ALMOST took philly. Now I am wishing I had lol. Cain in this situation had be a bit nervous. I just felt that this was SF&#x27;s best chance so far at beating them and thought I would just pass. Im trying to save as much money today for UFC. I am taking a couple chances tonight lol. I have Tito for the upset but I know there is huge risk in it. I just loved the trash talk and how he beat Bader. Rashad has a differant type of wrestling style and I think he will have a hell of a time getting tito to the ground. On the feet, I actually like Tito. He has only had trouble when he gets lazy and I saw some training videos of him preparing for this fight and hes going all out. At &#x2B;300 odds, I thought it was worth a shot lol. Are you on Philly fort?

MGD · Answer

Closer - what are the other &quot;chances&quot; you are taking tonight in UFC, if you don&#39;t mind sharing?  I like Tito tonight too, he looked GREAT last match!!

tidefan07 · Answer

BOL tonight CX!

CloserX · Answer

Lackey&#x27;s starting to lack it up! lol

Fortmax · Answer

Yes Sir !

CloserX · Answer

MGD. I will do a quick write-up on each of the UFC picks for you. Just give me a few minutes, k?

CloserX · Answer

damn... once agai lackey gets bailed out by the offense. &#xD;&#xA;Congratz MGD! looks like you are about to make some decent money!

MGD · Answer

I would love that bro!!!  THX a ton for sharing your thoughts!

MGD · Answer

Lucky spot bro, Lackay is risky like you said.  I am astonished he is still in to be honest!
