Looks like O'Nora who is 29-16 UNDER the last 1+ seasons but it is not 100% confirmed yet.

I think the Prez has a man crush on you...he kept calling me Happy off the air....

I answered your question on the air.

You mean all that "playing hard to get" is finally paying off?

(...Can't wait to hear him bitch about how you actually included that tidbit on here today when he gets done reading your thread lol...can't wait ...)

BTW you didn't have to adress that question on air but you deserve credit for taking it on and I think the result was a very interesting topic effectively discussed.  Your answer was certainly satisfactory and you made a very interesting point about the growing lack of day game experience for a lot of these younger pitchers

But you never gave a rationale for your outstanding (and truly LONG term) Friday cards  ... perhaps an even tougher question

thanks for the info GH....if you're around near gametime and can confirm it when its official I'd really appreciate that....I ended up locking in Tampa TT over 5 even, may have to ditch it if he's behind the plate.  I rarely play totals but it seems like everytime i zone in on a nice over spot in a game 1 there ends up being a bigtime under ump behind the plate to screw up my plans

Could you elaborate on the A's pick.   I was expecting to see slightly better odds on the A's vs Lincecum.  My book has it even money and I don't see the value in that.   Am I missing something?
 
I really like the card tonight.
 
Thanks and GL.


Timmy gets too much respect on the road. In is career, the Giants are 20-17 in his road starts, which is by no means overwhelming. In the last 3 weeks, Mazzaro has actually been the better statistical pitcher. He has thrown 25 2/3 innings in his 4 starts and allowed 19 hits, 5 runs (1.75 runs per 9 innings) with a 0.97 WHIP. If I can be so bold, since May 12th, if you combine his 4 Triple A starts and 4 major league starts, he has thrown 53 1/3 innings and allowed 27 hits, 6 earned runs (1.01 ERA) with a 31:14 K:BB rate and a WHIP of 0.71. Lincecum has been terrific also. In his L4 starts, he has tossed 30 2/3 innings and allowed 26 hits, 10 runs (2.94 per game) with a 28:7 K:BB ratio and 1.08 WHIP.

I just think the pitching will neutralize itself and that the A's are the better investment at home while the Giants struggle on the road. All the other intagibles point towards the A's in my opinion.

my advice is to click on Mlb.com around 6:30pm and click on the boxscore to that game and it should show you the umpires. I WILL NOT BE AROUND TO CHECK FOR YOU.

Wow Votto just opened up about his psychological difficulties at batting practice... very sobering stuff.  Good luck to the man in his quest for inner peace indeed

Aww, I am on Nats tonight and was hoping you would be ,too. I guess you are smart enough to lay them off.
