6/26 MLB Plays

[Nick Douglas]

I will be in Milwaukee starting tomorrow until the 2nd, so if anyone from the area wants to meet up for a brewski at Summerfest or elsewhere, drop me an email at nick_douglas@mac.com and I will give you my cell phone number.

One early today. I am struggling, so for the time being I am playing games at $100 per game using the only angle that has worked for me lately. I am looking for teams that came back the night before but ended up losing, or to fade teams that came back the night before and ended up winning. Good luck.

SAN FRANCISCO -215 over San Diego 100/46

This game actually fits both angles.

 

[TIME TO MAKE $$$]

Nick, Bonds is out, does that effect your wager?

 

[Nick Douglas]

Sorry for the late reply. Bonds generally sits out day games after night games, so I was expecting it. From the times I have watched them on Sundays this season, the Giants generally seem to pick up the slack when Bonds is out.

Three more plays today. And I also want to say good luck to the Bucks in the draft tonight.

Atlanta -149 over METS 100/67

Very risky taking Glavine here in my view, but the scenario fits perfectly as the Mets jumped out 7-0 yesterday and the Braves scored the next 4 and left plenty of baserunners on in the 8th and 9th that could have tied or won it for them.

Arizona -175 over HOUSTON 100/57

Dunno if there is too much value in playing Johnson in this scenario but it certainly fits the scenario of Arizona finally coming back to tie last night in the eighth, only to lose it the next half inning.

Detroit +100 over KANSAS CITY 100/100

This is a play I have to make on Bernero. The guy is simply a stud and I see him tearing it up under the radar just as Vazquez did last season. In fact, only reason I am not playing Vazquez at the small number today is because I feel that Pittsburgh is about to go on a tear to get back in the Central Divsion race now that their lineup is healthy and hitting.

 

[Antonio]

Gl on your plays today Nick. I also was about to pull the trigger on Det and Binero, but i found:

Bernero (R) 1- 4 TSR 5.11 ERA IN NIGHT GAME TY
May (L) 2- 0 TSR 3.86 ERA IN HOME GAME TY

To be honest it scared me off. But sharp money definitely seems to be swinging on Detroit so GL.

I was more looking at his recent form than YTD numbers. Trachsel had a similar situation last night with the day/night split and it ended up burning me.
