    Wow, I got a shot to win both of these.

    Dodgers grinded back from a 2-1 deficit to get up 5-2, right now in bottom-8. Remember, I have to win by 2.

    Texas, down 7-4, got two solo HR in the 7th, now down 7-6 and has 1st and 3rd nobody out in the top of the 8th.

    Druff nice call on NFL

    That was definitely a trap game. Miami QB was banged up before the game but +4 Miami made no sense.

    KEEP IT GOING

    Unfortunately my baseball picks are both losing, though neither is out of it.

    No I don't feel bad about winning when the opposing QB goes down with a major injury. I moved the discussion of that injury to the NFL thread.

    Had absolutely no idea which end was up on this game and struggled to even find it on TV for the last 4 minutes.

    Thx Druff

    Well this isn't going well. I don't know why I thought Ashcraft would have a good game. He has some talent, but he just hasn't been that good.

    Anyway, most of you didn't get to bet it because I posted it so last minute.

    Here's two unders you will have time to bet:

    Yankees (German) vs. Baltimore (Voth) - Under 7.5 -105 (8 -125 ok)
    Washington (Sanchez) vs. Philadelphia (Syndergaard) - Under 8.5 -125 (Game 2 of Doubleheader)

    I am submitting Miami (Alcantara) F5 +140 v Milw (Corbin Burnes).

    Alcantara looks to be back on the beam and Corbin Burnes has def not been so sharp his last 5 outings
    Burnes is the trusted brand name with ploppies.

    Brewers just feel quitters to me.


    KC Singer F5 -110 is every wiseguy’s dream pick. Ploppies love Cleveland. Indians Civale is no prize. I’m gonna lose my BCR privileges but Cleveland will finish strong and win. I wonder what it was overnight? CLV is over rated. Put the F5 to work for you.

    Atlanta +116 over Mets of course. I did the series +240. Fair price no lock. Hedge like a bitch if you see Jansen in bullpen. (Life advice - no ATL runline in playoffs cause a 3 run lead with Jansen spells a likely loser. Druff knows.)


    Kershaw and Mariners are approved parlay chalk.

    Hard to get invested when a game is -11.5 and you could have got -7 at the open, but here we have Kent St.

    Cincy wasn't even close. Lost 6-1.

    Yankees under wasn't close -- in a good way. 3 runs scored total, easy win.

    Phillies game 2 was postponed.

    Druff keeps rolling

    KC’s Singer won F5 and Indians came back strong & won game as predicted. That’s a pretty good call

    One MLB pick today

    Ortiz has been surprising everyone in Pittsburgh. Montgomery was great for the Cardinals at first, but has seemingly collapsed.

    I'll take the far hotter hand.

    Pittsburgh (L. Ortiz) +185 at St. Louis (Montgomery) - first 5 innings

    The 185 on BOL right now might be a mistake, so grab it quickly. I see 170 elsewhere (which I would still take)

    Ouch. Horrendous pick on my part with the Pirates. 6-0 Cardinals in the second inning. Also I have Ortiz on my fantasy team, which is in a close battle for 2nd. Double pain.

    This has been my second bad pick in two days. Notice that for the past month or so, even my losing picks have been very close, for the most part. When I start picking games which get blown out (when I lose), that's when I begin to scratch my head and revisit things. Two games don't mean much, though, and the regular season is about over, so I won't be making any changes.

    I may stand pat with the Falcons only for tomorrow. I'm looking at few others, such as the 49ers, but I'm not ready to fire just yet.

    Okay, I'm going to fire on the late game.

    Here have been Dylan Cease's last 8 games:

    8 IP, 2 ER
    9 IP. 0 ER
    6 IP. 0 ER
    5 IP, 3 ER
    6 IP, 1 ER
    6 IP, 0 ER

    Granted, this was against Arizona, Minnesota, Oakland, Colorado (in Chicago), Cleveland, and Detroit -- none being offensive powerhouses, but still. The guy has a 2.06 ERA and 1.089 WHIP in 31 starts this year.

    Clevinger is inconsistent, and he's had bad outings in 3 of his past 4 starts.

    I'll take the evenish money on the White Sox here.


    White Sox (Cease) -101 at San Diego (Clevinger)

    Against my better judgment, I will re-fire on the Pirates against the Cardinals.

    Roansy Contreras has allowed 2 ER or fewer in 6 of his past 7 starts -- the only exception being against the Yankees, where he still struck out 10.

    Adam Wainwright, all 41 years of him, has allowed 4 ER in 4 of his past 5 starts, including against 2 bad teams. I will take the nice plus money on this one. However, I'll go first-5, because I don't expect the punchless Pittsburgh offense to outplay St. Louis in the later innings, once Contreras and Wainwright are gone.


    Pittsburgh (R. Contreras) +160 at St. Louis (Wainwright) -- FIRST 5 INNINGS

    I had Dodgers -1.5 last night. Was dead down 4-1. Then the walkathon happened and it was 4-4. Still needed exactly 2 more. Thankfully more walks and Bellinger brought home that glorious 6th run with 2 out hit and turned shit bet into winner. I might have briefly hummed I love LA.

    Duke was big for me yesterday. Good day. Lost Indiana, but hit Duke, Dodgers, Maryland, and smaller bet I forget now.

    Don’t love this one, but Falcons have horrible run defense. Browns may not win, but hard to see them lose badly, but we will see.

    Cleveland down 23-20, going for at least a FG, throws an interception. 23-20 Falcons final, I win.

    Colts under looks dead. 24-17 in the 3rd with 7+ min left in quarter. Zeroes for rest of third, but still need a complete zero 4th. Colts make baffling decisions to kick it with 2 min left, down 7, and miss FG. Final score 24-17.

    Amazing. Definitely been lucky here in my now 16-2-1 start in NFL.

    Roided Pujols killing me though in Pirates bet. 4-4 in 4th, but Cards have runner on 2nd, no out. Shit.
