Slowplayer Season long bases thread

Hi guys, It's here and I am ready to go.

Gonna take the Sox here at a hefty price as Wells is a big game pitcher, loves pitching in NY, while the Unit may be a little overjuiced tonight and with the added pressure of being the savior, I just think we don't get his best tonight, not for a lack of effort. Let's not forget that Wells has been the YANKEE KILLER through his career and that was the original reason they got him. He is 16-8 with an ERA under 3.00 for his career against the Yanks. Wells also pitched 7 shutout innings in his only visit to Yankee Stadium last season.

Bottom line in baseball is looking for VALUE, and the Sox have the value here.

Small play(plays rated between 1-5*)

2* Boston (+181)

Good luck........slow and steady wins the race :smoker2:

One other number that I neglected to mention here is that Wells is usually a fast starter, His teams are a combined 14-4 in his last 18 April starts.

Good luck all.......Slow

0-1 -$200 to start as the Yankees put the smackdown on the defending champs, but just didn't see any value there at -200 and thought nerves might get the bes of the Unit, however, Wells was not sharp at all and wouldn't have mattered.

Five plays for Monday, no time for writeups today:

plays rated from 1-5* as always and 1*=$100

3* Pittsburgh(-128) Perez must go

3* Detroit(-1.5)(+121) Bonderman must go

2* Oakland(+109) Zito and Lopez must go

2* Cleveland(+116) Westbrook must go

1* Cincy(+139) Action here

Listed pitchers or no action.......

Good luck guys............

Slow............:smoker2:

Also, to clarify as I have noticed the question asked in other threads, when wagering on favorites, I am wagering to WIN the units listed, when wagering on dogs I am wagering the flat unit rating for instance $300 to win $363 on Detroit today and $384 to win $300 on Pittsburgh.

Good luck........slow

2-4 for -$484 to begin the season but a long, long way to go.

Plays are $100 per *

Rankings from 1*-5*

Ok here we go for Thursday:

3* Cleveland Over(9.5)(-106) Contreras is a gas can and Cleveland may do this themselves.

3* Baltimore(-120) Like the way Bedard trusted his stuff in the spring, he has very good stuff and when he doesn't pick at corners, he can be dominant.

2* Cincy(-102) Reds are healthy and will be the surprise team of the year in the NL. Ishii never goes deep into games and that means the horrid Met bullpen will come into play.

2* KC(+134) Greinke has great stuff and have to play at this price against inconsistent Johnson

2* Philly(-1.5)(+129) Not sold that Loaiza is back.

2* ATL Over(7.5)(+102) Hudson slumped at end of spring and Burnett also struggled with his location a bit, also like overs after long extra inning games as bullpens will be gassed.

Good Luck all..........slow
