My lines:

Phillies -150, 9.5 Pk
Dodgers -150, U8 -115
Rays -150, U8.5 -122

Bets:

Laying off Philly. My line is so far off, public is all over them, and the line moved the other way on opener. Something is wrong here.

San Francisco Giants +160 1st 5 innings
Pitchers: Johnson/Billingsley

Billingsley is a stud that should dominate but Randy Johnson looked like the pitcher of old in his first start and the Dodgers aren't exactly in mid-season form with the bats. I don't trust the Giant bullpen at all so going 1st 5.

Yankees/Rays Under 8.5 +100
Pitchers: Wang/Kazmir

Kazmir always dominates the Yankees and New York is without Big Tex today. Wang's first start scared me but I'm chalking it up to rust since he almost always pitches well against Tampa and was making a return after a long layoff. He should be better this time around.

what u think SF game???

Went 1st 5 since I don't trust SF pen at all. Randy Johnson appears to be back to being a very good pitcher again. GL.

My lines:

Mets -215, O8.5 -118
Orioles Pk, 10 Pk
Brewers -150, U8.5 -116

Bets:

New York Mets -1.5 +100
Pitchers: Pelfrey/Silva

Pelfrey is not as good as billed IMO but the Padres don't have much on offense and even if they get 3-4 runs, I still think New York wins this game by more than a run. Silva is not MLB material and the Mets offense should smack him around. 7-2 Mets.

Baltimore Orioles +110 1st 5 innings
Pitchers: Uehara/Padilla

Baltimore has crushed Padilla the last few years and is hitting well right now. Uehara was extremely tough for the Yankees to hit and should have success his first time around the league. I have no idea what will happen when the bullpens come in so playing first 5.

Royals -135, U8.5 -120
Cards Pk, 9.5 Pk
Red Sox -160, O8.5 -118

Bets:

Boston Red Sox -145
Pitchers: Lester/Braden

Boston can hit lefties while Oakland can't and that's going to be the difference. Lester has amazing stuff and should do well while I think Braden will give up 4-5 runs in the first 4-5 innings before leaving Boston with a nice lead.

You were conspicous by your absence over the week-end.
Rumor had it that you were on a week-end date with a young co-ed from Whitman College out of Wala Wala.
