Wow! What a guy! :103631605

Here is the response I posted on Bookie Buster's Derby thread (just in case you see it herre first):

Wow, what a wonderful gesture! I am not even sure how to respond to this offer. On the one hand, I have never played horses, so I am probably the last person who should suggest a play. And on the other hand, I feel like I don't really deserve such a great offer from you.

But then again, it may be even more rude of me to turn you down. With that said, please don't worry about taking care of me or giving me thanks in way....but if this is something that you indeed want to do or insist upon doing....then I will tail whatever you or Bookie Buster come up with since your opinions will be more valuable than mine could ever be in this arena.

Thank you so much for the offer. Just let me know who or what I sould be rooting for if this something that you insist upon doing. Very, very cool gesture!

Thanks Metfan. And BOL in whatever you do today :toast:

Tigers - Specify Pitchers - Maroth vs Perez
Pirates - Specify Pitchers - Duke vs Suppan

Free Pick - Angels (For analysis see Daily video)

GIANTS

This little mini run Jon Lieber has been on comes to an end today.In his last 25 innings against the Giants he has given up 17 runs. To put it bluntly, they hit him hard.I am well aware how solid he has been in his last 3 starts but he faces a team that he just can't seem to hold down.As far as Lowry is concerned, he is 3-0 his last 3 beating the Cardinals, Dodgers and the Rockies.He is 2-1 at home this year with an ERA of 2.84. That is solid.I have this feeling Bonds goes yard off Lieber at least once today, maybe twice and Lowry's home magic continues today.Ride the Giants at home as they continue to win by the bay.

YANKEES - 1 1/2 Runs

If the Yankees don't absolutely destroy Jeff Weaver today, then they have more problems than I thought.I mean seriously, Weaver is 0-4 this year with an ERA of 18.26.He has given up at least six earned runs in three of his four starts, including last Saturday's loss against Kansas City, when he allowed six runs in just one-third of an inning of an 8-3 defeat.When you start getting hammered by the likes of the Royals, I really don't like your chances against this Yankees lineup.I know Wang has been a little shaky off the DL in his 2 starts so far but something tells me he pitches a gem and gets the Yankees bullpen a much needed rest.I am on the Yankees to hammer Weaver and win this game by 2 runs or more.

PADRES

Veteran pitchers taking the mound when their team lost the night before.
Enter David Wells today.Padres lost the opener of this series because Scott Linebrink gave up back to back homers in the 8th inning to Josh Willingham and Joe Borchard.Now Wells gets after it and I love him in this spot here.The 21-year veteran has only faced the Marlins twice in his career, and hasn't pitched against them since a complete-game 6-1 victory on July 17, 1999 while with Toronto. Sergio Mitre, who is 0-2 with a 3.97 ERA, gets activated from the disabled list and will start for Florida.Mitre hasn't pitched since April 17, when he tore a blister on the middle finger of his pitching hand and left after just 13 pitches.In his first two starts of 2007, the right-hander has allowed nine runs - five earned - in 11 innings with a .320 opponent batting average.Mitre lost his only start against the Padres last season, allowing five runs and seven hits in six innings of a 9-3 defeat on April 11, 2006, and is 1-2 with a 7.02 ERA in three career starts against them.I look for San Diego to roll behind Wells and get a nice road win today.

TIGERS

Here they come.With their 6-3 win Friday night the Tigers have won 5 in a row and send Maroth to the hill to make it 6 in a row.I am fully aware that after winning his first two starts of the year, Maroth has 3 straight no decisions. That ends today.Detroit has won 12 of their last 13 road games versus the AL Central and at this kind of price today, I am on them.Odalis Perez, who is 2-3 with an ERA of 6.91, goes today. He is trying to avoid being the team's first pitcher with four losses.Sorry, he can't avoid it as Detroit rolls again.

PIRATES

You are not going to win every game.At the big league level, it is just not going to happen and it is for this very reason I am going against Jeff Suppan today.Suppan comes off beating his old team in the Cardinals, who passed on him and if ever a pitcher was in a flat spot, this is it for Suppan.You throw in the fact he threw 117 pitches and it wouldn't suprise me to see him be very sluggish in this outing today.Zach Duke is back. Over his last 2 starts he doesn't have a decison even though he has given up just 3 runs over 13 2/3 innings.I will back the dog Pirates here and Zach Duke as the Pirates give me a great dog winner today.

Scott Spreitzer

SCOTT SPREITZER SCOTT'S MLB AFTERNOON HAMMER BEATDOWN!

(917) CHI White Sox vs (918) LA Angels Game Starts at May 05 2007 12:55 EST
Take (918) LA Angels I'm laying the price with the Angels on Saturday afternoon (3:55pm). The Halos are rolling at home, especially against righties in 2007. They're now 9-2 against right-handed starters, plating six RPG. I believe if they score their average today, it should at least double what they'll need for John Lackey. The Angel righty has made the right pitches when needed, heading into this one with a 2.19 ERA in six starts. And, when he's on the home bump, forget about it. Lackey is 3-0 this season in three home starts. He's allowed just two earned runs and 24 base runners in 18 IP. That's a fantastic 1.00 ERA with a 1.33 WHIP. In fact, over the last four seasons, including 2007, the Angels are 32-19 at home when Lackey starts. They should grab another "W" here when he faces Major League Baseball's worst hitting team. The White Sox are dead last in team batting average! The Sox send Garland to the hill today. His lifetime results against LAA show a 2-7 record with a 4.95 ERA, including 1-4 with a 5.18 ERA in seven starts at Angels Stadium. Not the numbers you want when facing this lineup. The Angels took two of three at U.S. Cellular, I expect another win on Saturday.

The Angels are my 5* Hammer. Thanks! GL! Scott

Marlins-
<o

The Fish are swinging the bats well and its translated into wins, as the Marlins 8 of their last 12 games. I expect more success tonight facing a struggling David Wells in this one.

Wells has really struggled on the road this season, going 1-1 while allowing 10 runs on 16 hits over just 7 1/3 innings. He's also made a bad habit of making early exits, pitching 5 innings or less in 3 of his 5 starts. Facing a red-hot Marlins batting order, the veteran southpaw is in for a rough night in this one.

Opposing Wells is Sergio Mitre, who just got off the DL after developing a blister on his throwing hand. Granted, Mitre is winless at 0-2, however his 3.97 ERA is respectable, especially compared to Wells' 6.23 ERA!

Padres offense has been sputtering, which can only be bad news for Wells and company, because you know damn well Miguel Cabrera and the Fish can and will score runs.

Bottom line, David Wells and the road haven't mixed well this season, and it could get even worse against a re-hot Marlins batting order. Expect another solid Marlins victory tonight, as Mitre gets his first win of the season.

Take the Marlins behind Mitre over the Padres in this MLB match up.

Tigers-
<o

></o

>
Don't jump off the Mike Maroth bandwagon just yet, as the Tigers pitcher loves to beat up on the Royals, beating Kansas City more times than any other team in his career (10 wins). Despite not recieving a decision in three consecutive starts, he was solid against the Twins in his last start, allowing 3 runs on 9 hits on 6 2/3 innings of work.

Opposing Maroth is the Royals Odalis Perez, who despite an ugly 6.91 ERA, is better than those numbers... Just not good enough. He'll be facing a surging Tigers club, winners of 5 straight, that's been swinging the bats well. Over their last 10 games, the Tigers are averaging a solid .286 versus southpaws, and we should expect no different tonight.

Listen guys, there's no doubt the Royals are better at Kauffman Stadium, but they're about to run into a red-hot Tigers club starting a resurgent pitcher who loves beating them. Let's not forget the Tigers are 5-0 when Maroth takes the Hill... Make it 6-0 after tonight. Tigers roll!

Take the Tigers behind Maroth over the Royals in this AL Central match up.

The Free Pick of the day is the game between (921) CLE Indians and (922) BAL Orioles.
<o

></o

>
Take "(921) CLE Indians".
<o

></o

>
Indians at Orioles: Cleveland has a powerful offense, one that is second in the AL in home runs and tops in on base percentage. That poses problems for Baltimore pitcher Daniel Cabrera, who has control trouble. He's walked 18 in 38 innings this season and in his career he's walked 298 in just 495 innings, a horrible ratio. Putting men on base is dangerous for all pitchers, and Cabrera is walk-happy. Baltimore is struggling badly to score runs, as well, recently losing 10 of 11 games. Cleveland lefty Jeremy Sowers is throwing well, and off his best game (2 runs in 6 innings). Unlike Cabrera he has excellent control. Unlike Baltimore, the Indians are playing well, recently winning 10 of 11. Don't mess with the hot team!

Hondo

SDS--I noticed in your Toutsbases.xls spreadsheet that you had N/A for Hondo on 4/29 and 5/04. For the record Hondo lost both (4/29--took SFG over AZ, 5/04--took MIN over BOS). For his picks you can go to nypost.com and in the search box enter "Hondo" and it will give you the archive of his picks.

Just thought I'd let you know so you have more data.
Thanks for all the info and keeping this up.

Thanks for the kind words and for the Hondo link. More data is always a good thing.
<o

></o

>
However in this case, I have purposely ignored all other outside sources of data and record keeping. Here’s why:
<o

></o

>
I have been keeping a daily record and a running season record for a majority of the services whose plays Bookie Buster obtains and provides. And occasionally other RX members share their paid / confirmed plays with us. However, there is zero consistency as to which service's plays can be obtained on a daily basis. So I can only track what is provided, and when it is provided. It would be unfair for me to include plays that we do not have access to within my record keeping efforts on the spreadsheets.
<o

></o

>
No matter what some other source is reporting in regard to a service’s W~L record or winning percentage, it doesn’t help anyone here in this forum. The only way it could help them is if they were to actually go out and purchase that service’s paid or premium picks every single day.
<o

></o

>
Bottom line: we get the plays that we get and we can only choose to play, fade or ignore the plays that we get. Therefore it would only be fair and useful for me to track the plays that we have available to us here in this forum.
<o

></o

>
Besides, can we trust the records being reported by these services? Or the records being reported by other third parties who may or may not have an incentive to make mountains out of molehills?
<o

></o

>
Services give out all sorts of different plays. All sorts of different categories and packages and plays. And I am pretty certain that services are pretty creative in how they choose to report their results.
<o

></o

>
But thank you for the info. I appreciate you looking out like that. I hope you can understand why I choose not to use it. BOL with all your plays and I hope that our efforts on these daily threads helps you in some way.

Reguarding Hondo you can use the nypost.com for record keeping of hondo because he post in the ny post free everyday. That is most likly the only one you can trust as far as that goes.

Oh, OK, then that makes sense. I'll go check it out. Thanks BB. And thanks Artie. Sorry about the long winded rant about outside sources and etc.

But I am sure that this question has been in the minds of others as well for other services, so hopefully my response is still beneficial to any one else with similar questions.

Thanks BB. The night kind of fell apart near the end. I ended up 7~5 for the night. Nothing spectacular. Too many plays probably. Lost two 5-Inning plays too. But it was Hudson and Halladay...I'll make those same bets the next ten times.

I never ever thought I'd be betting bases, let alone finding any type of small success with it. I'll keep on doing what I am doing until I hit a brick wall. We'll see how it goes.

Good luck with De La Hoya. I like him too but didn't lay anything on it.
