well gang, the stench from the sty is much better today after a trough full of baseball totals, all over, FG and F5 came in to shrink the wagering deficit. throw in a few winning in game wagers, mixed in with a losing in game wager, and it was a stellar night for those following the thread...
for the two playoff games tonight....i dont really have a feel for either of them, so i will keep my powder dry and await and in game opportunity as i see the games unfolding..
in bases i do like these plays OVER F5 in the dodgers and seattle games, and also OVER for the full game, same two...in the case of the dodgers...josh beckett ( 8 home runs allowed already) squares off against brandon mccarthy. both hurlers have gotten off to very slow starts and in recent outings, things have only gotten worse for both..the Dback bullpen has been nothing short of a volatile liquid, so the full game over is in play, i think...
up in seattle, we have aaron harang trying to resurrect his career after making a detour to lost angeles on his way to the american league...ummmmm, thats not going so well with an ERA north of 8 and over 9 his last 3 starts and a WHIP of 1.68. throw in the starter for pittsburgh james mcdonald, and we have the possibility of spontaneous combustion with his WHIP of 1.69 and ERA over 6...even these 2 light hitting teams should push across 4 runs in 5 innings for a push at worst...to be fair to mcdonald, his batting average against is very respectable, around .250. BUT he has walked 20 of the 138 batters he has faced and given up 29 hits for an on base percentage of .377 by the opposition... if it stays under, so be it, but over looks like the only play to this old pig...
after typing all this, i double check numbers and find the pirates have JUST changed pitchers
...jeanmar gomez.....hes got better numbers, but im staying with the over in seattle and pittsburgh...
