I was going more on recency and ERA. The last 5 starts against the Rangers he has given up 3,5,5,5,4 runs. 3 of those games this, 2 of which he lost as you noted. Anyway, that puts his ERA against the Rangers over 6. Just to clarify what I was talking about. Wish I woulda bet it.Not that career stats matter much considering player movement and such, but Zito is 16-3Haven't played it yet... still looking over some numbers. Thanks for the heads up though.

Well, I lost my parlay and my Total figure....
Is it me, or do the lines tonight look too good to be true for chalk backers?
Should be fun tonight to watch some of these games, that's for sure.
Risking 1 Unit each:
Twins Santana -112
Angels Lackey -118
Marlins Willis -117
Cubs Zambrano -118
1/2 Unit Parlay:
KC +170
Colorado +123
GLA

My buddy's hammered again. He just played a $1,000 parlay, on my recommendation.
So we've got Pitt to KC to win $7,178.
Edit: I had nothing to do with the bet size, just thought it was a decent "monster dog parlay". Hell, it was the ONLY "monster dog parlay".
No way we hit this...

He's also got two dimes on the Yankees (but I'm not in on that one)...

Good call, glad I missed the first pitch, I WAS going to play it to. So I'm glad I didn't. I actually didn't play anything tonight so good luck to everyone. Nevermind, I played the SF/Ari o9.5 EV for .25 units

I think we've all been there, pal. hang in there. at least i've been there. a few times. too many.Having a terrible night here. Bad day, followed by worse night. I should have realized those 'great' pitchers laying low chalk was a clue to stay away. i knew better, but i bit the hook anyway. Sent out 3 Units on Boomer Francis and the Rockies to stop this Dodger Streak. I lose this, I'll double it up and so forth. This is a good Dodgers team; it is not a GREAT Dodgers team. IMHO.lost my whole bankroll in a matter of 3 days

Hang in there - the tide will turn - it always does, for better or for worse!Green94 - I had to laugh when I saw your post about missing the start. I was on hold at Pinny for 10 minutes to lay the wood to ANA tonight when I gave up - So here is a big thanks to the 800 pinny number not picking up right away!Like GM said, we've all been there, don't worry about it.

we sure have... it will turn around, just follow your convictions and believe in your capping abilities.Whenever I have a rut I like to go back and review the reasoning for my picks during the losing streak, that might help you too.Hang in there - the tide will turn - it always does, for better or for worse!Like GM said, we've all been there, don't worry about it.

You mean why I go back to check on the reason I placed the bets I did?Well, it kind of goes hand in hand with my first statement, believing in my own capping ability...If I see, when I review my plays, that I have placed the bets for the right reasons, solid capping, I can write it off as variance and not because of a brain ####up. By doing this I have also found plenty of bets I am not very good at, sports I have no business betting at all, and some that I should focus more on.As an example, I found out that I am absolutely horrendous picking sides in College hoops, but decent at totals...Edited because my grammar sucks...reasoning?we sure have... it will turn around, just follow your convictions and believe in your capping abilities.Whenever I have a rut I like to go back and review the reasoning for my picks during the losing streak, that might help you too.Hang in there - the tide will turn - it always does, for better or for worse!Like GM said, we've all been there, don't worry about it.

Well, the Yanks made it okay, I guess (for him). But we didn't even get to enjoy 10 minutes of the "MONSTER Dog Parlay". Houston was up like 7 - 0 in the 2nd.He's also got two dimes on the Yankees (but I'm not in on that one)...
I have an idea of what Gambino would be like to hang around...and this guy is him. Will put whatever down on anything at any time. All-the-while playing large poker hands online with LOTS of Dewar's/rocks and cigs. Frequently stays up ALL night. Classic.Just saw KC won...damnit.

Let me expand some on that pick...
in 16 1/3 innings in the last 3 games, Reyes has allowed 12 runs, 20 hits, 9 walks
Arroyo has 17 runs, 26 hits, 4 walks in 18 1/3
not very solid performances from either pitcher...
this is game 4 of 4 in the series, the other 3 games have resulted in 14/13/15 runs...
in the prior 3 games, the pens have given up at least 3 runs per game, so I am looking at getting 6-7 runs from the starters through 6 innings. Given their history the last 3 games that is doable.
ETA: My numbers have this matchup at 12 runs on average, 6-6

Home with the kids today. I need something to watch other than Bob the Builder and Elmo Goes to Prison.
Mets Hernandez has been a winner with the Mets. Young is starting to show signs of tiring and his ERA is creeping higher and higher by each start. Liked the Under a touch, but laid off it in favor of the Mets.
Can't belive Guru likes the Padres. We're never on different sides.

I divorced bourbon in 1994, but I still sleep with her now and again. quickies mostly.
Alrighty, sent one play in for tonight.....thinking one more.
####
Just reviewed my play and I don't like it....my eyes were seeing things or something. Going to have to figure out how to fix.
I like Texas -1.5 (Eaton +135) though.
Rangers at home, Seattle throwing Pineiro out there, see a high scoring affair, and I'll take Young/Lee/Blalock/Texeira over Beltre/Ibanez/Sexson in that one.
Also leaning Toronto tonight (Lilly +109)...but I need to do some more due dilligence on that one.
