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... -

Significant wounds/ Lucky 7 Pack
Bravos' infield is hurting. Veras is already out and now Lockhart's ankle may keep him out, too. Couple infield errors good for a couple runs? Angels will be resting Percival for the next two days but they get Salmon back today. Yesterday, along with the entire team here, I ate it. Picks... -

Lucky 7 Pack+1 for Sunday
3-4 yesterday. Both two unit plays won so it was an OK day. (This is as close as I can come to keeping my record in order) Brewers -125. I like Sheets. AS game inspired him, too. CWS hurting and sliding. Cubs under. 8 runs scored in 3 games since the AS break Tribe+ +105. Wickman... -

Lucky 7 Pack for Saturday
Go against Reds at home until the really prove us wrong even though Burba will probably leave this to the BP to wiin CLEVE-150 Mets score fewer runs than anyone. UNDER 8 Rekar and Armas have been two of the worst pitchers this month. Rekar's ERA is over 7 L4 starts and BA against is .293... -

AS Break Lull// Poetry from 1948
"First we'll use Spahn, then we'll use Sain. Then an off day followed by rain. Back will come Spahn followed by Sain and followed we hope by two days of rain." Wisconsin kids in the fifties and sixties grew up thinking this was a nursery rhyme! [This message has been edited by jng (edited... -
