    Anybody watching this TB game?

    Ok, I think I may know the answer to that question. Anyway, Corcoran is trying to singlehandedly give this game to the O's. He's just getting murdered. The two outs that he's recored both came on guys getting thrown out stealing. His pitch count is at FORTY! And yet I'm sure the manager...

    Balls jumping out at The Safe...

    Ok, so part of it was Moyer having nothing at all tonight but the weather was in the 90's here today and because of that the ball is just flying out. Safeco is a pitcher's park but when it's hot and humid here like it is now you would think it's Coors Field. Why do I mention this? The next...

    One play for Monday 7/17...

    Let me first throw out the disclaimer that I've been getting absolutely killed with my baseball picks this year. Some of it has been bad luck, some of it has simply been bad calls on my part. Therefore, you may want to tread lightly if at all. Anyway, on to the pick... Red Sox -1.5 (-135)...

    Vin Scully still going strong...

    The M's pregame is on and they're interviewing Vin right now. I thought he was still announcing but I wasn't sure. I live in Seattle now but lived in CA for about 12 years. One of the things I miss most is hearing Scully call Dodgers games. The guy is absolutely phenomenal. For my money...

    One play today...

    Giants -1 (-110) I rarely post baseball plays but I think this one has a great chance of winning. Here are my reasons why... 1) This is just a huge pitching mismatch. Schmidt should have no problem at all quieting the M's bats. Even though they have been hitting better of late they're...

    Miami -1.5 game 5 line...

    I figured it would be around 1.5 or 2. I'm sure that by tipoff the line will be Dallas -5. :mj07:

    These refs are great...

    Don't get me wrong, I completely missed the boat by betting on Dallas tonight (silly me thinking they might play with some heart and decide to play hard for a whole game), but after watching this game I've decided I can't put another dime on these games. The refs have way too much influence on...

    Interesting line movement...

    A few minutes ago the O10 line in the AZ/SF game jumped from -105 to -128 at Pinnacle. That's one of the bigger jumps I've seen, given that it happened over the span of about 2 minutes.

    Question about Nate McLouth...

    Actually, more like two questions... 1) Why is this guy in the big leagues? and... 2) WHY ON EARTH is he hitting in the leadoff spot? I've been wondering this all year long. I seriously think there are pitchers who hit better than this stiff.

    Angels -245, -1.5 -110?

    Does anyone else think that line looks a little fishy? When I saw the -245 I was thinking -140 at the least. Could they possibly be wanting money on the Angels -1.5? I have to admit ignorance about Keppel. Is he a stud or something???

    Good thing Ozzie left Freddy in...

    it's been obvious all game that the guy has nothing, but you may as well just leave him out there to embarrass himself, right? NOW the bullpen warms up after he gives up 7 runs? :mj07:

    Any tips/thoughts for Vegas?

    Hey everybody, In the immortal words of Balki Bartokomous, I am going to Veeeeeeeegaaaaaaaaaas in a couple of weeks. Oh come on, I can't be the only who used to watch Perfect Strangers. Anyway, I used to go all the time when I lived in CA but since I moved up to Washington it's been about 8...

    2 picks for Thursday...

    0-1 YTD: As you can see I don't post much in the baseball forum. I don't play these games nearly as much as hoops or football. I like a couple of games on the card for tomorrow. I also looked hard at Milwaukee because I love betting on Davis and Capuano, especially when I can get them as a...

    Walking Ibanez to get to Sexson?

    Ok, this is at least the third time this year I've seen a team walk Ibanez to get to Sexson. Two times he's homered, the other time he hit, I believe, a double. My question is... why??? While Ibanez is no slouch, Sexson is without a doubt the biggest threat the Mariners have. It never ceases...

    So when was the last clutch hit for the Cards?

    1985? And was it Vince Coleman, Willie McGee or Jack Clark? I'm kidding obviously, but for a team that is supposed to have a stellar offense watching these guys hit with runners in scoring position is painful. I like Pujols and Rolen a lot but the other guys certainly aren't anything to write...

    Throwing my hat in the ring...

    Oakland - 112 ok, I'll take a stab here. I'm not going crazy since it's the first week of the season but betting against the hometown boys in certain spots has proven to be quite profitable the past couple of years. Guys like Jojihma and Lopez are going to be good additions for the M's but I...

    Sacramento -2.5?

    I don't play a lot of NBA games but this one really jumped out at me. Sacramento is still playing for the playoffs and Golden State has officially mailed it in. They are pretty much an automatic go-against for me at this point. Not only did they get embarrassed on their home floor against the...

    George Mason in the 1h?

    I wouldn't be surprised to see another one of those games where the inferior team comes out and gives the better team all they can handle in the 1h. I also like that the crowd will be with GM. I could be wrong, UCONN may come out and blow them out of the water early but I think heart and...

    How many steps did Hollins take...

    after that steal? Seriously... 6? 8? I have a whole bunch of money wrapped up in UCLA but that was a huuuuuuge travel.

    I'm already salivating at UCLA 2h...

    This game is shaping up exactly how I thought it would. UCLA looked like crap against the Zags and I think they wanted to make a statement early. Well, they're making it. I know it's early but I think it's going to be a long day for Memphis. UCLA plays great D and they are also a great 2h...
