I was downstairs, but I couldn't leave w/ a runner on and Vlad up. So, I stuck around and watched it all unfold.Holy #### was that crushed...FIRST PITCH...OBLITERATED!If the neigbors were sleeping, I assure you they no longer are.Sonny, we're back in business. Juan Rivera w/ da monster shot.
That's unbelievable. I was watching on mlb.com and turned it off to concentrate on poker during Texas' big inning. I was done with it, but felt like checking. I come back to see Vlad doubled in a run. It's still no luck as we need 3 more. I see Rivera coming up still down 3, but forget to check it. I was just focusing on poker and then suddenly decide to bring mlb back up. Top 9 I see, no big deal. Then I see the score is 6-6. No ####, Rivera goes yard to tie it. We'll see if we can pull it out. :fingerscrossed:I was downstairs, but I couldn't leave w/ a runner on and Vlad up.

The reason I mention this is that they may quit the practice of messing with the baseballs. Keep an eye on their totals when the Rockies get home, could be "over" time once again.
I thought the practice of the Rockies keeping balls in the humidor was to cut down on runs and the humidor practice is regulated by MLB. It could be OVER time when the Rocks get home, but I am not sure that the way in which the Rocks will be storing baseballs is going to change.
A quote I found interesting: "Runs have never been harder to score at Coors Field since the stadium opened in 1995. The average game now features a combined nine runs -- down from 15 runs that were scored a decade ago." 6 runs a game? They must really be soaking those things.
Awesome....hit another Two Dog Parlay, this one paid 5 Units. Sweet. That's three of those puppies in a row...Man, if the Angels had won that game, it would have been a very sweet night. But still good...never complain about positive performances. this game can humble you in a hurry.
That and it helps that colorado has a much better pitching staff and not nearly the power hitters of 10 years ago, but you are right - 6 runs is a TON
Pirates +190 again this afternoon for me. Probably a parlay to the Over as well.
MP I like your thinking... Cubs coming off the DH split. Gorgenzola or w/e has good stuff just needs to control it a bit better, I like Bucs +180. I also like the Over 8 just b/c it seems like a good value play. I'll play it as an IF BET not a parlay though, GL to all.MarshallPlan said:
You get my check yet? Its been so long since I mailed anything I don't know how long it takes.
got it! sitting in my wallet between a condom from 1997 and a Buffalo Nickel.
And Morris? Meh.
This is looking damn good about now
WTF....gorgonzola throwing a 2-hitter thru 6? Dude has an ERA around 6 coming into the game. And the buccos lighting up Zambrano? THIS IS THE LAST DOLLAR I PLACE ON THE CUBS AGAIN THIS YEAR.
lol @ 'gorgonzola'This is looking damn good about now
kid was a top pick for the Bucs in 2003, took his lumps after his call up July 1 but has settled in his last two starts. I only know this because i'm right certain he killed me last trip out.Pirates are filled with ####### "top pics", Van Benschoten, Snell, Duke, Burnett, can't even think of the others right now, I'm solol @ 'gorgonzola'
But, they all ####### suck. Had the same argument with some dude from Pittsburgh before the season started. He was all amped how this was the year the Pirates were going to be good, maybe make the playoffs. I said they would be LUCKY to be 20 games under 500. I'm going to find that thread right now. I hate the pirates
sorry big fella...For tonight, i'm not amped up about too much. Though I'll say this....the Zito -107 line stinks like the ###### of a tuna fish. Ain't no way that he's -107 over Washburn -103. Seems like the books are begging you to take him...Pirates are filled with ####### "top pics", Van Benschoten, Snell, Duke, Burnett, can't even think of the others right now, I'm solol @ 'gorgonzola'
Like GM said earlier Gorzelanny isn't just a scrub the Buccos threw out there. I didn't know, but he's a top draft pick. His ERA was near 6, but that's with just 24 IP coming into the game. You have to throw that ERA stat out the window. Don't didmiss it completely, but with 24 IP all it takes is a few bad innings to blow up your ERA. I have a stat called the xERA which is a better measure of what the pitcher really does and Gorzelanny's xERA is more than a point below his regular ERA, saying he's really not that bad. His xERA is 4.72, which isn't terrible and he had a good HR rate coming into the game, which is key in Wrigley. His control is his issue.Nice pick GM. I didn't know I actually had 2 units on the Pirates at +190 and I didn't get to toss the parlay in. Nice 4 unit start to the day here.This is looking damn good about now
Hey look, the kid's got diarrhea again.BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH. BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH BLAH. AND BLAH, BLAH, BLAH BLAH. BLAH SOME MORE.This is looking damn good about now
I like Phily here too. How has Wolfe looked?I hit on the Bucs and Gorganzola this afternoon :thumbsup:Tonite I likehillies +138 (Phillies just took 2 of 3 from Cards and I think the Mets are realing after a tough series w/ the Fish) This one turns into a slugfest and the Phillies hand it to the El Duque who has been less than impressive this season)Tampa Bay +172 (Schilling looked terrible in his last outing and last time Boston played at Tampa they lost 3 of 4. Tampa Bay looks like good value at this price)
Not great in his one outing 4.1 and 3ER but he is a good pitcher overall.I like Phily here too. How has Wolfe looked?I hit on the Bucs and Gorganzola this afternoon :thumbsup:Tonite I like
He looked decent besides the first inning where he had some control issues.I like Phily here too. How has Wolfe looked?I hit on the Bucs and Gorganzola this afternoon :thumbsup:Tonite I like
My boy may make it after all
pay no attention to that
