    Pavano

    Has an ERA of 13.50 as we all know. Staying pretty much even this month. Note to self: Must stop playing dumb parlays. Picks: Florida (3 units) Florida/Expos over (bit of a hedge play) Cubs KC Toronto Yankees Twins GL J

    Is it just me or . . .?

    Does everyone agree that Sheffield is not just a selfish boor but also one of the worst clutch hitters in years? Lotta' people in Kcwolf's thread went 2-1 and made a little money. Love the idea of sending some of it to disaster relief efforts. BRAVOS -125 over Phillies. Duck is a stud in...

    Major Value Saturday

    Phillies-1' -120 over Montreal Phillies/Expos over 9 We all know Pavano's record. His 31.15 ERA (not a typo) may go up this game. He has given up 16 runs and 19 hits in 4.1 IPs. Person is somewhat better with a nice 3-0 record, 2.17 ERA in his L4 starts. Bad blood from last night's game...

    Weds Woofers

    Bravos under. Glavine loves a big strike zone (ump) Atl's bats are asleep. Dessens +190 Fish/Cubbies over Brews/Bucs over Giants -115 Giants/AZ over CWS -115 Orioles+ Hudson's hurting? Maybe. Inspired Pitcher Theory, anyway, for Towers. Angels win on the road GL J

    Tuesday

    My egregious error in posting yesterday will not recur. Lots of incredibly good-looking games but a need for chalk cutting with run line plays in a few of them. More "public" ramblings no small thanks to AOL. Mesa's absence will not hurt the PHILLIES because he probably wasn't going to be...

    apologies

    <<Tollberg has gone five starts without giving up a base on balls and Burnett has given up about 100 in that same time frame but has been lucky a lot. Luck fails him here. Marlins win this one about 8-2>> Obviously, that was suppose to be "Padres win . . . " Damn game played out just like I...

    Weak Capper/Strong Streak

    OK, I think I can do this. Nice day yesterday, Saturday was also fine and today's limited card looks worth a try. Maddux cannot be faded here, the total looks tough but I would like to play this game in spite of the big price. I am assuming that the Inspired Pitcher Theory holds here and that...

    There is no pen left

    I'm doing OK, thank you. I might have made Tiger's list again today but I'm not sure. Still wondering why my 4-2 Friday missed the list. OK, let's lead off the with the VALUE OF THE WEEK: The game in Texas is now over. Eight Boston relievers threw 199 pitches. Kim threw 64 of those alone...

    saturday

    Phillies/DBacks under 9 ev. Strong under ump and Coggins has been sharping giving up only 9 runs in past 26 IPs. I think Batista will try to make a statement here to try to stay out of the pen and will give a strong 6 innings or maybe more. Both these guys will benefit from today's generous...

    DBacks need 2 days of Rain

    Tonight, I like the Expos because I will never forget what it was like to watch Reyes pitch in person a couple years ago. Weak, very weak. I also will play Daal to beat Anderson because I think that the DBacks morale has got to be low after watching Spahn and Sain (Curt and Unit) go down in...

    Guaranteed Winner Or Rest of Week is Free

    I guarantee that this joke is a winner or the rest of the week you are free to ignore my jokes. I also realize that a joke should be posted elsewhere, but the slump we have all been experiencing merits a little levity. What's in a Name? A strikingly handsome young man walked into the office...

    Two Dog Day--IMPORTANT READ!

    Started my day at 5:30 AM running with my two dogs. Actually, the old girl walks with us for a while and then I take her home and run with the "pup." Thought about how incredibly fun it is to spend time at MJ's and wished there was a little less dissension. Oh, well. After you have typed a...

    Mendoza Line

    I would need powerful binos to see the Mendoza Line but I think I might have a few winners today so I will share, attempt to garner fame and plaudits from Tiger and establish my rep as an insightful but erratic contributer to MJs. BREWERS+. Go against Tapani ("Mr July" but not Mr. August) and...

    Two Friday Totals

    Two nice-looking totals for Friday. (Much thanks to Prospector for the great Under of the Year win. Congrats!) Angels/Tribe OVER 10 runs Anaheim is almost always a good under play but these two pitchers are suspect. Ortiz has a shoulder problem and lasted only 1.2 innings in his last game...

    The Day After the BPs Got Cooked

    Cubs/Stros under 10--high NL total even in Houston Phillies-130. Brews BP worked OT last night Bravos/Rocks over 12'. Same BP issue (Passing Schilling and Rocket because I am unconvinced that reducing 300 to 160 with 1' runs makes it a much better play.) Schilling/Williams under 8. OK...

    Washburn Alert--NOLAN please read

    I think that Jarrod Washburn had an MRI last week to check his pitching shoulder. "Jarrod Washburn (9-6, 3.76 ERA). The left-hander won a career-high eight straight decisions from May 13-July 24, but he has since lost two consecutive starts. In his last two outings, Washburn has allowed nine...
