Kershaw dominates Dodgers.. Bumgarner better on road for reason, not sure that holds up this season but still..

Kershaw around even $$$ against a non ace is almost an autoplay for me.. I will be on the Dodgers tomorrow and I will be on them good..

what did you mean kershaw dominates dodgers? did you mean he dominates the giants? ...and yes i like that play thank you

gynecologist · Apr 11, 2011

LOL I meant Giants. hahaha

That was funny

PatsFanatic · Apr 11, 2011

Like the Dodgers play Gyno.

I also like the Sox tonight. Tampa is one of those teams Dice K could throw a no hitter against. Certainly not saying thats gonna happen as he has stuggled with them in the past, but this aint the same Rays team. Undisciplined and lacking pop. He has faired well individually against their current line-up.
The Sox have only faced Hellickson in relief once but tagged him for 3 runs. I like the Sox to gain some momentum after a successful series against the Bombers.

-145 at home against a struggling 1-8 team, I'll take it. Also throw some on the run line.

Also, we are kinda having our first humid day of the year here (78%), i expect the ball to fly well tonight, along with plenty of base runners = over.

MIKEY.1TIME · Apr 11, 2011

boston.. i agree with pats on sox... also until dice k shows me something, i think getting a total below 10 is good value for the over. sox and over here.. gl!!

Couldn't agree more Gyno,
Not a whole lot of handicapping required...it's a play simply off of value. We know Kershaw has been successful vs the Giants. SF's defense looked pretty iffy too. Couple more errors over the weekend.

Careful if you're thinking under here. A breeze blowing out at AT&T
LAD even$.
3-0-1 to date.

METFAN · Apr 11, 2011

1 SHIT DAY TURNED A GOOD WEEK INTO CRAP

1-5 -$634

ytd 17-15 -$139

METS..that fucking pen blew a gem by Young. so much for the new regime..Bullpen sucked worse than last yr..2 new guys brought in today. And the "contact team" stuck out 17 times..no hits in 5 innings vs the Washington pen..give me a break

I am going to take my daughter and her friends to the game tomorrow. we have some tickets on the Mets dugout where i can get a better pulse of these guys.in the meantime

tonight ..Finally some warm weather in NYC
can't trust Pelfrey the way he's going..so I'll play first 5 over until he shows me something Hammel isn't exactly Bob gibson, but the way the Mets are hitting ..who knows

$150 first 5 over 4.5 -110

YANKS..Was that bob feller pitching last night? a national disgrace..Beckett was great and deserves all the props..Brett Gardner looks lost and the only one slower than Jeter has been is the waiter the other night on my anniversary

will try to post earlier tomorrow :toast:

gynecologist · Apr 11, 2011

Only 7 replies?? Where is everyone?

BeerRemedy · Apr 11, 2011

No Yankees or phillies today. That might be part of it.

Thanks for the winner Metfan

gynecologist · Apr 11, 2011

Probably right, just hoping some people would give me some info on their teams..

I'm learning the White Sox BP sucks.. Keep that in mind.

MikeyLo · Apr 11, 2011

Bullpen day for the Cubs tommorow. With the injuries to Cashner and Wells they called up Coleman and Stevens but Stevens is in the pen so 5th starter still a huge question mark. They are starting James Russell but it won't be a normal start. They want to get 3 innings out of him, 4 at the most. I think we'll see Jeff Stevens and Jeff Samardzjia too. Neither are very impressive. Might see John Grabow again or Marcus Mateo. Carlos Marmol threw about 35 pitches tonight so not sure how available he'll be if the Cubs have a lead. The backend of the Cubs bullpen is typically very strong, but the long guys (who we will be seeing tommorow) are certainly not. Houston is throwing their ace, Brett Myers. I think I'm going to back Houston tommorow, even though they're a bad baseball team and they're a favorite. Many, including myself, we're thinking Myers would regress this year but that hasn't been the case thus far with 2 quality starts against 2 good lineups - Philly and Cincy

gynecologist · Apr 11, 2011

In case you guys aren't noticing..

Matt Kemp is on FIRE.. He has lost 15 pounds, is staying away from sweets and junk food. He's on a mission and its showing.. Watch out for him gentleman..

Riv34 · Apr 12, 2011

gyne, do you live in the LA area?

gynecologist · Apr 12, 2011

Yes in Glendale.. 4 miles away from Dodger Stadium..

Whats up man.

Riv34 · Apr 12, 2011

oh shit, Im out in hb but i usually get to a good number of dodger games a year (usually more angels games since its closer). we'll have to grab a beer sometime

gynecologist · Apr 12, 2011

Yeah definitely.. Dodger tickets are crazy cheap. Lets do it man.

My brother lives in Aliso Viejo, not too far..

MY PLEASURE ,,HOPEFULLY HERE ARE SOME MORE

YTD 18-15 +$11....That's a lot of work for $11

METS..The way the Mutts are playing you can only really look at the totals..new regime same shit. When the starters pitch well the pen comes in and blows the game..When the offense scores 6-7 runs the pitching stinks. i'm taking my daughter to the game tonight to give her a break from the baby..and to get a better feel of this team.GREAT SEATS RIGHT ON THE METS DUGOUT

not remotely sure how the line can be 7.5..fell like i'm going into a trap.. the starting pitching hasn't been particularly good and the pen is already getting stretched

so i'll play the following:
$100 EACH:

TOTAL O 7.5
FIRST 5 O 4(EST LINE)..don't see either starter giving up less than 2

WITH THAT PEN... HAVE TO GRAB INNINGS 6-9 FOR $50

METS -.5 FIRST 5 AWAITING THE LINE (MORE OF I'M GOING TO THE GAME BUT I AIN'T TRUSTING THAT PEN PICK) for $50 as well

YANKS..For the most part the yanks bats are cold..Tex hit homers in the first 3 games
and is still batting under 200..brett Gardner is lost batting .167

Still it's the stadium and runs seem to come in bunches..burnett has a good track record against the dirty birds but i'm not sure he is fixed yet

$50:
yanks/birds o (est 5) first 5
and
$50 on Tillman and the birds first 5 LISTED PITCHERS ONLY

NOTE:
RAIN IS IN THE FORECAST FOR BOTH AND SINCE I'M GOING TO THE MET GAME I'M SURE IT WILL..

rain delays would only enhance the overs as the pens would have to come in earlier than expected

i have alot of strong trends that i like today and will post them at lunch..will definitely be playing philly, tex, astros first 5 , brew crew..prrobably playing all straight and rl 50/50
good luck today:toast:

HookEmHorns · Apr 12, 2011

No time for a write up, but Rangers for me today

Main reason is I see Penny getting rocked. Also, CJ should be able to contain Det offense to a minimal amount of runs.

Note: Wind is blowing out at 15 mph. Look for an over play if it picks up harder

GL today!

mplastered · Apr 12, 2011

Milw at Pitts
Really liking this Kevin Correia so far for the Bucs. However, he hasn't pitched well against Milwaukee in his career and last year the Brewers pretty much owned the Pirates taking 13 of 18. Leaning towards Milw, but not big.
