    Two baseball dogs today:

    Pittsburgh (R. Contreras) +148 vs. Toronto (T. Richards)
    Miami (E. Cabrera) +151 at Atlanta (Elder)

    Note: Prior to getting hit fairly hard by the powerful Dodgers last time out, Cabrera had almost 23 straight scoreless innings over 4 games. Trevor Richards is starting a bullpen game for the Jays.

    Contreras and Cabrera both pitched well. Toronto scored 3 off the Pirates bullpen, and won 4-1.

    Miami loaded 'em down 1-0 in the 9th against Kenley Jansen with no out, got one across, and then sadly WALKED in a the winning run in the bottom of the 9th.

    0-2 and the slump continues, with that little break of winning that last Angels bet. Sad!

    In the old days BadGuy would be giving the sharp play on the US Open women's match, that prop bettor would have given out his Gold on who was getting the first TD, baseball sweat on some unders and Dogs, JSearless would have the latest on the Royals..

    We have Garcia -150, Bills -1, Brewers under8.5, Yankees over 6.5, Brewers -180. Hate favorites this big but fukit yolo..

    That’s completely out of line.

    You and Druff played a [redacted] game over this issue. No one knows anything. It was intentionally kept dark and now you blast?

    But you do you pal.

    I don’t know if you saw or heard anything about Alcaraz v Sinner last night in the US Open Quarterfinals. 19yo v 21yo

    The McEnroe brothers were in the booth. John McEnroe said it was one of the 5 greatest matches he ever saw. I agree. One of the most exciting things I ever saw in sport period. Alcaraz is so insanely quick. Bulked up and athletic.

    Most important these two were like relief pitchers. They would fuck up a shot and it was wiped from the memory bank. Alcaraz definitely has a wiring problem. Nothing bothers him. The anti-Kyrgios or Shapo to name two emotional retards.

    The match went 5+ hours and didn’t end til 3am EST. The latest match in US Open history. Tennis more than any other sport (without exception) is THE greatest live wagering sport currently. The live algorithms aren’t complete yet and may never be good.

    I happened to get lucky in what was a flip between the two but I caught up to +725 for the win. I’ll take +725 on a flip all day

    I was pretty shattered and didn’t get to handicap Swaitek or Garcia. I’m good for now.

    I thought about posting something last night but I didn’t want to step on Druff’s Radio.

    ……….

    I promised I wouldn’t talk about the [redacted] issue and I have to honor my promise. I love you guys but I gotta have a code. I won’t say another word on the subject.

    Any of you degens betting Tiafoe v Alcaraz tonight in US Open Semi?

    A blue dot signifies a $10k limit which is larger than usual.

    Alcaraz and the over points (which correlates to anticipating 5 sets) is everyone’s preference. Mine too.

    The bet boost I’m offered is a parlay Alcaraz and the under for +200. Another contrary indicator.

    I got this at 39.5 points but I’m offered 40½ -120 (juice just jumped) …. my alternate lines are juiced and the 39.5 isn’t even offered.

    In the end it’s the number. Which is why we hate sports wagering. Right? Druff has this aspect of gambling mastered but he his an emotionless robot.

    I’m doing Tiafoe +180. . Do not come in here post match with your winners. Step up now in chat.

    I don’t really love anything today. Just numbers. I’m staying home for tennis so I made some picks.

    I missed the best Tiafoe number (+180). Sharps are coming in too.

    I bet Cleveland over last night and the number is better now. Oh well.
    I rather like Sawks Bello. His numbers are much better than ERA. SAWKS bullpen is trash.
    Who doesn’t like CWS? Ploppie pick.

    Absolutely gonna bet Dodger game over live somehow. Wind out and humid.

    Angels (Lorenzen) +185 vs. Houston (McCullers)

    As usual, it's the Trout/Ohtani show. Tonight it's Trout.

    2-1 Angels in the 6th. Gotta hope this fail bullpen can hold this lead.

    I watched that entire match and am convinced them two could have played until sunrise. Two Alcaraz matches in one week instant classics. I was on the wrong side with Tiafoe but picked a few winners in MLB.
    Alcaraz has all the tools to be a great one and looks like we finally have some youngbloods ready to contend every tournament. Djokovic missing 2 majors a year being unvaccinated is messing with his legacy which kinda sucks.

    Alcaraz is an assassin. How does a 19yo possess that kind of composure on a stage like that? NYC is clearly & loudly behind Tiafoe. Oh to be 19 and never get tired. He has a lot of hours accumulated on the court now for this tournament. He’s kinda small so he’s not lugging a big body around either.

    The Alcaraz Sinner match was an instant classic but this was great too.

    Alcaraz is -205 vs Ruud Sunday but lotta recency at work atm. Let’s see if the sharps sacrifice themselves so I might get a better price.

    I missed Dodgers over live as was my plan cause I was watching tennis. Oh well. It never got cheaper than 8.5 but I saw May’s pitch count and it slipped by me.

    I had a good night. Up 2.26 units. CWS coming back from down 3-0 top of the 9th to win 5-3 was sickness & a big swing. I ask you, who deserves it more than me? The rest were clean wire to wire wins.

    Just throwing some ideas out there in exchange for college ideas.

    I’m not sure but I don’t think I’ve ever done a 3 teaser this year. This is +211. RL for any of them individually is ok too.

    White Sox -192
    Phillies -240
    Brewers -225

    The Druff-style pick would be

    Pirates (Brubaker) +167 vs Cards (Jack Flaherty) …… I prefer RL +1.5 -107.

    Fried, Giolito, Jack Flaherty are forever linked in my head coming off the same SoCal high school team. All killed it but only Fried has survived time. Flaherty still means something as a brand name. He’s coming back off injury and is still finding his way. He could revisit his teenage self but I’ll gamble as Druff would.

    I would've gone for that Pirates pick if I were around when it started. But I looked at it too late. And it's winning at the moment. Oh well.

    Late season dogs killed me in prior years. I stayed away from them in the second half of 2021 and did very well. This year I haven't stayed away from them, and am struggling recently.

    Incase anyone is intersested I posted this just now in my NFL thread.

    "Hey guys, sorry something came up and I cant really break down games this weekend, I will try to write something up later tonight, or tomorrow morning, but if I cant get around to it I thought I would at least let you know what my picks are for my survivor contests.

    My current picks for my multiple survivor contests week 1:

    A> SAINTS
    B> COLTS
    C> RAVENS
    D> TITANS
    E> 49RS
    F> BENGALS

    Good luck everyone. Since I don't have time to really go over the games does any one have any picks they really like? THANKS!"
