First things first. The #1 possession team at home, facing off against the last placed possession team on the road. HUGE mismatch here TB -1.5 (+153) 2 units TB reg -0.5 (-120) 4 units Another possession mismatch I want to take advantage of. I don't care if they beat the Canadiens. The Canucks cant keep up with the Stars. DAL reg -0.5 (+111) 1.5 units Carolina is underrated IMO. NYI backup in tonight, and Griess has been good, but I'm not buying it. Car reg ml (+180) 1 unit How does this make any sense? Buffalo has VASTLY improved from last season. They are currently sitting 7th on the road in CF% at 54% compared to Pittsburgh being 12th at home at 51%. Add to that Pittsburgh played last night, and Zatkoff could be in goal tonight. This smells upset and the line is WAY out of whack. The books are looking into last seasons standings a little too closely here. Buffalo reg ml (+248) 1.5 units Buff reg +0.5 (+132) 1 unit |

Also check your facts on Ervin, in his last 5 starts he's 1-3 with a 7.07 ERA. Still awful numbers but quite different than what you posted

Ok so you will say Jays are a great lefty hitting team so why are you going against that? And I will say, the Jays bats have been hit or miss this whole month. The Jays may have hit lefties well earlier in the season but...did you know they are just 3-6 against lefties since June 30th? Take the overall record into equation and they were 11-4 against lefties when they were hot but not anymore. Leftie pitching for the Jays has also been suspect as well. Besides Buehrle who has been kind of fade material as of late, there isn't another lefty on the rotation that is worth a damn when you have Matt Boyd and Doubront stinking up the joint. Lefty starters for the Jays are just 4-6 in their last 10 starts. Overall the Jays are 14-15 when a lefty starts This might be some of the most shallow research I've ever seen. Using record stats is an awful method for R/L matchups. The Blue Jays have a .286 team average and .358 OBP vs lefties, both are good for #1 in the MLB. "Buehrle has been fade material of late" Marky B has a 1.78 ERA in his last 10 starts I love how Matt Boyd is "stinking up the joint" when he's made 2 MLB starts in his career, and Doubront has pitched to a 3.66 FIP in his few starts. Im a jays fan and Im biased. I also know more about them almost any other poster on here. Im not saying the Phillies are the wrong play because the line is extremely high. But your research, and your reasoning is garbage dude, you need to evaluate some things a lot more closely |

Man I've never seen so many idiotic comments in a thread.
First of all, those claiming the jays need a starter. Of course they do, the trade deadline isn't over. But this trade is as much about defence as it is about offence. Tulo has saved 41 runs over the last 3 years, while Reyes one of the worst defensive shortstops in the MLB had a team leading 13 errors. This is a huge boost to the defence. Tulo is alos a much better hitter. For those stating the Coors factor...uhmmm have you seen the ball parks in the AL east? The Rogers centre is a as big of a hitters park as there is in the league. Not to mention Yankee stadium, Camden, Fenway. All major hitters parks. Tulo will fit in just fine. The guy claiming the jays are taking on payroll is an idiot, because they both are making 22 million this year. Yes Tulo has 3 more years of team control, however Buerhle's 19M comes off the books after this year. A run scored is just as good as a run saved. Toronto improved in both areas with this trade. Get a clue

Probability of winning a 5 team parlay is about 100 to 1 my friend. It's more like 1 in 35 (Assuming each game is -100) and probably less if you're betting favourites. Still not a smart way to manage your money though

LOL. This guy posted in another thread that the Nationals were "the play of his season"
Don't just throw a hissy fit and cry to others saying you were unlucky, meanwhile people who actually do their research and crunch numbers, you the know the consistent winners, claim they are lucky. Take your losses like a man. It was your choice to make Tanner Roark and his 5.50 FIP your play of the year. This loss is on you

While I see what you're saying about Miller, I don't agree with you he is an auto-fade. His ERA is absolutely lower than it should be, and it will go up, however he has an FIP of 3.35, which is an impressive number, especially next to Collmenters 4.65 FIP, and ugly 35% Ground ball rate

Martinez hasn't been as good as his numbers indicate. He has an xFIP of 4.88 which is well below league average. He is a fly ball pitcher in a hitters park. Meanwhile, Eduardo Rodriguez has pitched to a sparkling 2.40 FIP in 48 innings in AAA, with a 8.19 k/9 rate.
Im not saying this makes the Red sox the right play, but it is an explanation of the line you see. This game is a toss up IMO
