You really think Silva is a better pitcher than Batista right now? I'll take Miguel over Silva anyday.

Yeah, true. Batista has a worthless 3.50 ERA, and hasn't allowed more than 3 runs in his last 4 starts.

I understand Silva has been very good lately, but to call it a mismatch is just plain dumb.

Hou about this one:

Jake Peavy (San Diego ) -150 over Brian Lawrence (Mets)

Jake Peavy (Last 3 starts): 1.37 ERA, 0.97WHIP
Brian Lawrence (Last 3 starts): 5.06 ERA, 1.69WHIP

Already on Bannister. Outside of his first two months, has been as good a pitcher as just about anyone. Told someone at the mini-Bash this weekend and we had a cash. This one looks scary as Contreras has been complete dog-shit lately. Nonetheless, Bannister is one of a few followers/fades I will keep riding as long as the odds don't catch up.

I don't care who's pitching for KC. Anytime you can get even,+ vs Contreras, you have to take it.

has anybody seen contreras pitch this year,is he injured? his numbers don't make sense this year,this guy has always been a top notch pitcher.
thanks and good luck

Richierich+ · Aug 22, 2007

Flava buddy,
question........are you playing the top 3 now? second in looking at the top
5 Ariz, KC, MN, Cinn, SD I believe ........how did you select MN as the third?
Because their ERA is better?The WHIP is lower with SD and Cinn. even thou it isn't much. Just trying to understand it better for myself.
Have you tracked the top 5 if you played those?
Thanks again for sharing your insight with us.

Guys a headcase. In 05 when he was lights out, it's because he'd just gotten his wife and kids moved here from Cuba. This year, he got served with divorce papers on opening day and...well, you've seen the results.

God damn a KC ML/o8.5 parlay is looking sweet this morning.

I_Need_Money · Aug 22, 2007

Yeah I'd take Bautista over Silva as well.

Another mismatch (though I probably wouldn't bet it) is Burnett over Loaiza.

SlashednThrashed · Aug 22, 2007

MistaFlava · Aug 22, 2007

Minnesota off to a 4-0 lead early...

Journeyman · Aug 22, 2007
