Ended a 3 day losing streak so I'm happy about that. Took a bit of punishment in the NFL so I'm not as thrilled as I was last Sunday. Should concentrate on bases for the next couple of weeks as it's too early in the NFL and there should be some good plays available for the remaining bases with a few teams calling it quits, other non-contenders that look to finish the year strong, and some fairly interesting playoff races as well. I figure if I keep paying attention for the next couple of weeks then it should pay off.

Brewers and Tigers are system picks for Monday. Astrosticks look like they might make a game of it, going by their last series, and especially Sunday's game, but Gallardo has shut them down before and looks like a hot commodity; Albers has had the odd good start over his past half-dozen but the Brew-Crew hit him well in previous meetings, including recently on September 5th, and I suspect that an over/under on his homers allowed for this contest should be about 2 or 2.5 (he's allowed 17 over 96 innings including 3 over his past 9, with the Brewers getting 2 over the 3 innings that they saw him). Tigers should take this one with any kind of decent game from Rogers; I like the Tigers for a series play, certainly at anything even money or better.

Other spots with value maybe include either the D'Backs or Yankees on the runlines, and the Cubs on the moneyline. Webb's done good work against the Giants before and the G-men appear to be one of those teams calling it quits?at least at the plate?course, they've been trash with the sticks all season so it's kind of hard to tell; Correia has been pretty solid as a starter and the system call is 61% under the 8?which just got switched to a 7.5 at one of my books?oh, well?gonna likely take it easy until Tuesday, where it looks like I may be playing a lot of dogs (or near even-money plays?can't really tell without seeing the lines). Yankees should pound Cabrera as everyone else has been doing, though their offensive numbers have been down lately?think that might change back home for this series vs the Orioles?Yanks runline will play for me for Monday and Tuesday, at least. Cubs have a good shot as Reds have trouble with lefties (11-17 on the road to L).

I don't think I'll play the listed total as I'm a Tigers backer and will be happy with that. Might play the Tigers team total over but I'll have to have a better look at TTs and see what's doing.

Will post picks and smoke my sacred stash.
The Seahawks did choke and cost me cash.

TTs
(+over,-under)

brewers ov5 -120 (+11)Albers poor work vs; Brewers 7-day OPS a solid .844; looks real good but I'm already deep into the moneyline
Astros un4.5 -135 (-14)Gallardo one beauty vs on Sept.5th; Astros 7-day OPS .811; I'd like this better at a 5; pass

giants un3 -110 (-15)Webb good numbers vs; Giants 7-day OPS a lowly .636 and they've scored the fewest runs in MLB over that time; might grab a piece as the D'Backs line is pricey; runline maybe equivalent in value as this is a low total
--have D'Backs at -4; 7-day .776

tigers ov5 +110 (+9)Tigers 7-day only .739, after being nicely over .800 just a couple days ago; would really like it at a 4.5...still might give it a shot as I think that Byrd is nothing special
--have Indians at +4; 7-day .781

Yankees ov6 -110 (+19)Yanks 7-day only .737 but at home it's .860 which is the highest in MLB and they've scored more runs at home than any team in MLB, and vs R the Yanks are .845 which is 40 points higher than 2nd place and they've scored more runs off of righties than any team in MLB; Cabrera really looks like fade material lately so I'm backing the Yankees I just have to figure out how much I'm putting into what...this play looks okay, though I think the runline looks better
--have O's at 0; 7-day OPS of .783; .745 vs R; .726 on the road

Angels ov5.5 +115 (+8)Angels 7-day .774; at home they're .815 and, like the Yanks, I think that they're production will improve returning home; Jackson has the odd good game but seems quite hittable by better hitting teams, which the Angels (sorta) are (.766 vs R); runline looks a little better due to Escobar's superb numbers vs the D'Rays
--have TBay at -6; Escobar solid vs; D'Rays 7-day at .799; vs R .752


Maybe a couple worth a shot.
My totals ARE keeping me afloat this month, after all.

I'm in the high fidelity first-class travelling set and I think I need a Lear jet.

That's a wrap. Spent some time looking into week 3's NFL and, better yet, Tuesday's ball. I think that I'll have a pretty heavy day going for Tuesday, as I've tried to guess the lines and the results have shown me a number of spots where there should be value. Got to be careful this time of year but certain situations just look too ripe not to be picked.

Go get 'em Yovani!

Escobar has kinda struggled lately so maybe you've got something.

About to crash and I've closed down all my date files so not much to go by memory; Escobar has stellar numbers againt the 'Rays...could be his bounce-back game as he makes a final (unsuccessful) push for the AL Cy.

On another note, they just opened the Series prices at one of my places.
Tigers look good at +130. Wed will be tough v.Sabathia, but I think they take the first 2.
Phillies at -125 also looks good; Wed will again be tough, v.Wainwright, but I think they win today with Kendrick and tomorrow with Hamels returning...have a shot, too, on Wed as Moyer shut down the Cards in their only '07 encounter.

Need some shut-eye.

adding:

phillies -118 2.36/2


I think I might get a better line somewhere else, if I wait, but I need to crash and took one last look to see if they'd opened it yet or not.
They HAD opened the series prices after all.
Voila!
