20th: 1-4 -3.4
ytd: 10-6 +2.0 (6-6 ML, 1-0 RL, 3-0 tot)
comments: the dark side of the force betrayed me yesterday; truth was, I really wasn't crazy about either the Braves or Cards, but the line looked a little cheap to me; my spider-sense also told me that the Westbrook start was a better under play (oops), but the +140 was overwhelming; thank-you LAblue for saving a worse catastrophe...only liked LA a little there, as well; seduced by the dark side...

Rock n Roll

too close for comfort:
--Reds (priced more than the -130 I mighta bit at; K.Wells has the occasional gem)
--Washington (gimme +150...+120 is a joke vs overdue Smoltz)
--Phillies (Kennedy comparably occasional capable; -150 was my absolute ceiling)
--Cards (think Carp the better SP, but his 6.35 era means he might not benefit from ump Winters gratuities (i.e. fairly big k-zone))
--mets@Fish under (hold that thought...)
--Brewers +1.5 or under (8 at Minute Maid and, oh yeah...the Brewers...)
--la@SD over 8 (Eaton is overrated and Erickson's 6.97 era begs the over)
--Giants and/or under 8 (Schmidt sans Ortiz--no coin flip there--but -185?; D'Backs should avoid shutout and Ortiz can be flakey)

--Tigers and/or under 9 (Bonderman to I-Rod can be intriguing, but Buerhle starting hot, as are Chisox, and Tigers bats erratic; total is more tempting, 'specially at Comerica)
--Twins and under 9.5 (Gassner will not win any awards this year...-170?...gimme a break...BAnderson is another occasional gemmer (though maybe supra-occasional))
--bosox@O's under 10 (10?...I figured maybe 9 in this matchup...still, I like the side better, here)
--Jays (Chacin has looked sweet, but the Pinsteinbrenners are revolting against mediocrity; +120 is juuuuust a bit outside)
--D'Rays (Brazelton rocked at Tropicana last year; price right about where it should be at +120...I came close here)

better save before I'm zapped...

--a's (Harden has impressed, but A's bats have not, certainly not compared to M's improved sticks; Franklin enjoys SAFECO; A's should be getting +coin...another temptation avoided)
--Angels and/or under 9 (lookin' for 9.5--no less (though ump Timmons has conformed well to the under-age in the past); -140 too much vs Millwood, and overachieving (save for yester :cursin: day) Indians bats)

even closer than that:
--col@Phil under 9.5 1/1 (go Kennedy go...go Kennedy go)
--Marlins 2/2.2 (you can drop that thought now; Leiter can be one of the fiercest competitors I've seen (in baseball, that is :rolleyes: ), and I'll take Marlinsticks over Metsticks for sure)
--dodgers 1/1.4 (I can't resist vs Eaton, with Dodgers, for this price)
--bosox 1.5/1.5 (Clement sucks me in almost as much as Westbrook does/did/does...well, almost; Bosox bats totally outclassed O'sticks Wednesday)
--nyy@Jays under 10 1.2/1 (Yanks did not perform in outing vs Chacin last year, and he has been in great form so far this year; Mussina has performed well vs Jays, though only 6-8 @used-to-be Skydome (3.98 era at so-called Rogers Centre))
--a's@M's under 8.5 1.65/1.5 (Harden should calm pesky M'sticks, while anyone can tame A'sticks these days (Joel tried yesterday, but he is a Pin-eiro...Franklin has been stud-like his last 2)

re-hash:
col@Phil u9.5 1/1
Marlins +110 2/2.2
dodgers +140 1/1.4
bosox +100 1.5/1.5
nyy@Jays u10 1.2/1
a's@M's u8.5 1.65/1.5

risk is 8.35u
I need at least a 3-3 to retain my confidence in Paul Martin.


wait a sec...


May good fortune spill over onto your freshly shapooed endeavours.
