PO69 winning baseball selections for Tuesday 2-0 +5.00 units

PO69 · Apr 29, 2008

I went 2-0 yesterday while up 5 units. My picks range from 1 unit to 5 units. I will NEVER post higher than a 5 unit pick. I may actually bet a 20 unit play, but would never post a unit pick higher than 5.

In todays action, we have very few big favorites. I like a few underdogs today as well as Arizona again today. All lines come from sportsoptions.

1. New York Mets -215 (with Santana conditional) 2 units

2. Arizona -152 3 units Houston just is not scoring of late and Arizona is on a tear!

3. San Fran Giants -117 2 units Tim Linecum has been dealing lately. He is a superstar in the making since last year. The reason the line is so low here is because Colorado has only won 2 out of their last 10 games, but both wins were with Aaron Cook on the mound. If the over/under was 7.5 here, I would bet the house on the under, but not as much value at 7 runs. A tie would be a definite possibility there

4. Milwaukee -118 3 units (Sheets conditional) Sheets is ON FIRE lately. I also am betting the under 8.5 in this game. If this were a day game, then maybe I would lay off it, but it is a night game at Wrigley. That screams a 3-1 final score here!

I am also betting Tampa bay tonight, but not making it an official pick here. And a threw some cash on the White Sox as well

PO69 - Night games usually lead to overs at Wrigley. Tonight will be the exception as it is only 40 degrees. 5-inning under should be solid too with the state of the Brewer bullpen.

PO69 · Apr 29, 2008

Well I am having a rough day so far! I really wasnt expecting Arizona to get killed today!

Looks like the Brew Crew are going to win this...10-7 to the 9th...

But that comment about Sheets was only true... BEFORE... he once again injured his pitching arm...he looked like shit tonight..7 walks. Lucky that the Cubs pen could not do the job here tonight.

If the Brewers can close this one out...you would have a 300 dollar winner...HELL...you could almost pay TROCK the $$$ you owe him. :103631605

PO69 · Apr 29, 2008

Well I win alot more than $300 if Milwaukee comes through.

Of course I already sent that money one time, but thanks for being my accountant again.

I sure could use San Francisco to win tonight. I have them in 3 parlays that only need SF. That will be additional $1600

TonyMar · Apr 30, 2008

Are you going to be at the bash this year?

I have never attended...but may just make it to my 1st bash this time around.

Man...that is impressive stuff right there...back up catcher-turned emergency 3B...with an absolute rope to lead off the 7th. Barmes gets 'em over with one out...big spot...right here...right now.

PO69 · Apr 30, 2008

That hurt!

Lincecum allows the run to score on a balk!

TonyMar · Apr 30, 2008

Little Lincecum balks him in...terrible...

3-2 Rox

Cannot argue balks...bye bye Bochy and Bengie.

Gator627 · Apr 30, 2008

that was an awful call on the balk. You can clearly see the Ump throw his hands up to signal time out and then he decides to call a balk. Ridiculous.

TonyMar · Apr 30, 2008

Disagree...

Molina stood up before Darling called time...and Molina did that when Lincecum was starting his motion...that's why Darling called the balk, because Bengie Molina is not the umpire...colossal mistake by a veteran catcher.

TonyMar · Apr 30, 2008

Here is a definition of ridiculous...

Randy Winn's base running right there...ball was hit too hard to try that shit, going to 3rd with no outs. Another veteran player...acting like a rookie.

No. Did you actually see the play? Darling throws both hands up, Lincecum stops his motion and then Darling calls it a balk. If he didnt award Molina the time, why did he throw his hands up to signal time??

You cant signal time and expect players to keep playing. thats just ridiculous.

PO69 · Apr 30, 2008

Well the run may have scored anyway even without the balk.

But it isnt over yet, we need to get into the Rockies bullpen!!! The Rockies could have hit for the pitcher last inning, but they let him hit. I would have kept him in there as well since there was no one on base at the time and 2 out.

Cook has been pitching great for the shitty Rockies lately

Gator627 · Apr 30, 2008

I really hope Velez doesnt go on the first pitch...

Gator627 · Apr 30, 2008

now that is the definition of ridiculous...

Yes I am watching the game...

Molina came up before Darling called time...Lincecum stopped his delivery...which is a balk...BUT the key was Molina...he stood up before time was called...he messed the sequence up...wow...

Velez is a foolish player...amazing play...getting picked off there.

PO69 · Apr 30, 2008

FVVCKCKKKK!!!!!

All of the Giants have a bet on this game!!!

Gator627 · Apr 30, 2008

Velez and Lewis need to be taught baserunning 101. In the first, Lewis got thrown out trying to steal home on a first and third throw through. It would have been 2nd and 3rd 1 out. Now Velez gets picked off in another 1st and 3rd situation....

TonyMar · Apr 30, 2008

Ray-ray...Mr Clutch with the whiffffffffffffffff....

Some fine baseball there...

Leadoff double...and a veteran ballplayer, Randy Winn makes a mistake...

Then first and third...with one out...and...

The get nada...well that is Giants baseball 2008.
