Service Plays Friday 7/22/11

[Can'tPickaWinner2]

The Rx.com Mod Team has created this Service Play sub-forum in order to supply an area for Rx Service Play Posters to expand upon their posting topics without creating a logjam in the main forum where the three principle threads are maintained..

Posters can track services here if they care to but we will need any trackers to do so in an accurate and civil manner. We did not create this area for posters to ridicule or bash any services..

You can also discuss who is hot and who is not. The general state of the pay for plays industry and any other subject or topic related to service plays.

You can also create individual threads about specific services and discuss them freely but civilly. Again bashing and abusive treatment of any services will not be tolerated.

Please remember, this forum is not here for regular posters who cap their own games to post ther daily plays. Please use our individual sport forums to post your plays. Professional cappers (those that sell plays) must remain in the Site Promotion Forum.

The Rx.com will not tolerate posters that post false records of any services they track. Please be truthful if you decide to track a particular service.

Lastly The Rx Moderators are appealing to you our everyday posters to report any promotional threads or posts that are made by services or individual touts. No links or contact information to an individual service will be allowed. Just the name of the service. Please report any threads or posts that are promotional attempts by services and touts to use this forum to promote themselves..

Posters can easily report a promotional post by using the triangular Report-a-Post Icon at the bottom left of all post boxes. The poster name of any poster who reports a post that is out of line will be kept strictly confidential.

I will leave this thread open for a month to take questions and do my best to answer them. I will check in daily but am off on Wednesday and Thursday.

I hope this additional Service Play Forum will satisfy those posters that would like to widen the scope of topics relating to service plays and the industry in general to have their own threads. Mods will be liberal as possible regarding topics but this forum was specifically created to allow you more freedom to express your ideas regarding service plays and related subject matter. No off topic threads will be allowed.

Thank you, wilheim

Hey guys, I am pretty new to the site, but I have been playng a service that is strictly over the phone for the time being. They are pretty dang hot at the moment. They are coming out with a 75 DIME play on the UNDER in the Mariners Redsox game. Under 8.5 Felix vs Lackey. Thought I would share the wealth. Good luck to everyone.

MLB NEWS AND NOTES
Atlanta Braves At Cincinnati Reds MLB Betting Preview
By: Adam Markowitz

Atlanta Braves at Cincinnati Reds (+105, 8.5)

Last season, the Atlanta Braves and the Cincinnati Reds were both bounced early in the NL playoffs. This year, both think that they are contenders for the NL pennant once again, but both have a ton of work to do. The two will begin their weekend series on Friday night at the Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati.

The first pitch is scheduled for 4:10 (PT), and there will be live TV coverage on Sports South, Fox Sports Ohio, and the MLB Network.

This is the start of a vital 10-game home stand for the Reds. They enter this series at just 48-50, but they are only 4 ½-games behind the Milwaukee Brewers for the top spot in the NL Central standings. A solid record at the start of this home stretch might make general manager Walt Jocketty a buyer at the deadline, whereas a questionable start might give him second thoughts.

There's no doubt that the Cincinnati offense is good enough to win it all this year. This is a unit that ranks No. 6 in baseball at 4.59 runs per game. Of late though, the unit has been down, scoring just a total of seven runs in its past five MLB betting battles.

What is clearly needed is better pitching. A 4.06 staff ERA is on No. 21 in the league, and one of the biggest culprits for this problem, Bronson Arroyo, is going to be on the mound on Friday.

Arroyo is 7-8 with a 5.57 ERA. Batters are teeing off on him to the tune of a .295 batting average, and his WHIP of 1.40 is his bordering on his worst mark since joining Cincinnati in 2006.

The Braves are in a heck of a lot better shape right now even though they are trailing the Philadelphia Phillies in the NL East chase by 4 ½-games. There really aren't a heck of a lot of serious contenders for the NL Wild Card this season as long as this mess of teams in the NL Central keeps beating each other up, and as a result, Atlanta should be in the postseason one way or the other.

Whereas Cincinnati is going to be looking for arms at the deadline, the Braves need some bats to help out. Chipper Jones is still battling a knee injury and will be out of the lineup until at least Sunday, which isn't making matters any better for a team that is only batting .238.

However, that might not be a tremendous issue on Friday. Manager Fredi Gonzalez gets to deploy his Cy Young Award contender, Jair Jurrjens. For a man that didn't get his season started until April 16, Jurrjens has put up some simply awesome numbers. He is 12-3 with a 2.26 ERA.

Jurrjens is coming off of the worst start he has had all season long. He allowed six runs in five frames against the Washington Nationals at home, but the team bailed him out and managed a 9-8 victory. It was the fifth straight win for the Braves with Jurrjens on the bump.

Against the Reds this year, the righty already has a 'W' to his credit. He threw eight strong innings, allowing just one run for what was his seventh victory of the campaign.

The Reds are only 3-7 in Arroyo's last 10 starts at the Great American Ballpark. Meanwhile, the Braves are 18-8 in their last 26 games and have already taken two out of three against Cincinnati this year.

Early afternoon thunderstorms will hopefully give way to good conditions in the Queen City. Expect muggy conditions with temperatures in the high-80s and a heat index approaching triple digits while the sun is out.

Friday’s Streaking And Slumping Starting Pitchers

STREAKING

Cory Luebke (3-3, 2.57 ERA), San Diego Padres

This 26-year-old lefty is making the most of his chance in the Padres rotation. The second-year hurler started the season in San Diego’s bullpen but got bumped up to the five-man starting rotation at the end of June.

He’s 2-1 with a 1.50 ERA and a 0.66 WHIP (walks + hits per inning) and opponents are hitting just .148 as a starter. Oh yeah, and he has 26 strikeouts against four walks in 24 innings of work since getting dropped in the rotation.

Brian Duensing (7-7, 4.14 ERA), Minnesota Twins

Here’s another southpaw helping his club win games recently. Duensing is 2-0 with a 2.01 ERA in July and the Twins are 3-1 his last four trips to the mound.

The 28-year-old hurler is never a high price, so you’re going to get a good deal backing him most of the time. The under is also 4-1 in Duensing last five outings.


SLUMPING

Bronson Arroyo (7-8, 5.57 ERA), Cincinnati Reds

Oh boy. It’s just a season to forget for Bronson. Maybe he should fall back on his music career. Nope, just remembered, he sucks at that too.

Don’t let Cincy’s recent record in Arroyo’s starts fool you (4-2 in last six); this guy is tossing beach balls at the plate. The veteran right-hander is carrying a 8.25 ERA over his last four appearances.

HOT LINES

Friday’s Best MLB Bets

Chicago White Sox at Cleveland Indians (-105, 8.5)

You think the Cleveland Indians are in search of some help in the outfield? With Grady Sizemore out more than a month following sports hernia surgery and Shin-Soo Choo on the shelf until September with a broken thumb, things are getting desperate in Cleveland.

To make matters worse, Michael Brantley and Travis Buck also missed time this week, leaving the Tribe with an outfield that consisted of Luis Valbuena, rookie Ezequiel Carrera and Austin Kearns on Wednesday. Yikes.

"How can you substitute the absence of Choo and Grady Sizemore? I don't think that's a secret,” Indians manager Manny Acta said about the team’s search for outfield help. “We know that from top to bottom and we're working on it. But people need to understand, too, that it takes two to tango.

"You can have all the Christmas lists and wishes and all that, but you need to have somebody that you can engage with."

Until then, they’re stuck with what they have – which isn’t much.

PICK: White Sox


Tampa Bay Rays at Kansas City Royals (-105, 8.5)

The Kansas City Royals were fun to watch early this season. They’re a team that’s really trying to build on a young nucleus and after being the AL Central’s perennial whipping boy for years, it was cool to see them get out to a 10-4 start.

Of course, that didn’t last and they’re right back where they belong – in last place of the division.

The clubhouse is probably a little tense these days too after Wilson Betemit was shipped to Detroit and more moves rumored to be on the way.

Luke Hochevar gets the call for the Royals Friday and though he was great in his last outing, allowing just one run over seven innings in a win over Minnesota, we’re not sold on him yet. Before that start he gave up 11 runs over eight combined innings in two starts.

Plus, Wade Davis just keeps getting it done for the Rays, leading the club to wins in three of his last four starts.

Love the Rays at this price.

PICK: Tampa Bay

CFL NEWS AND NOTES
CFL: Tiger Cats-Lions Betting Preview
By Josh Smith

Hamilton Tiger Cats at B.C. Lions (-3, 50)

Hamilton finally got the monkey off their back with their big win against Saskatchewan last week. That proverbial monkey, however, still sits on the ever-weakening back of the BC Lions.

Hamilton looked every bit the Grey Cup contender in their walloping of the Roughriders. The Offense looked to be getting into a nice rhythm as the game went on. Quarterback Kevin Glenn looked comfortable in the pocket, and the team stuck with the running game throughout, even when Avon Cobourne went out with a foot injury. The Offense wasn't at their best, but it was a vast improvement over the previous two weeks.

The Defense played one of the five-best games I've ever seen a Defense play. The stats for the game are mindboggling. You'd have thought the Cats were playing a middle school team with the way that the Defense smothered Saskatchewan's Offense.

Special Teams kicked in (no pun intended) with a great game as well. Hamilton played with a short field for most of the afternoon and capitalized on it by putting 33 points on the board.

If the Cats can repeat that type of performance, they will hang with anyone.

The Lions will enter this game a very desperate team. No one wants to go 0-4 to start the year. I can't quite comprehend why BC has yet to win. It seems every week it's something new that scuttles the Lions' plans for victory.

With this game being played in Vancouver, the Lions will need to establish themselves early to avoid the boo birds from coming out. If the Tabbies get a lead, it could be a long night for Travis Lulay and co.

This is a late start Friday night, with kickoff scheduled for 10PM EST. But if you're a nigh owl, you can catch the game on television on TSN or on the radio at AM900 CHML.

CANADIAN BACON

Friday's Best CFL Bets

Hamilton Tiger Cats at B.C. Lions (-3, 50)

For a second straight week, Hamilton meets a team looking for its first win of the season. The Tiger-Cats did dominate the Roughriders last week, winning 33-3, but that victory doesn’t convince me.

On the other end, the Lions are much better than their 0-3 straight up record indicates. They have played good football against the Alouettes and the Stampeders, two teams that could very well make it to the big show in November.

The Tiger-Cats will be ending a tough road trip in the west and could be worn out by the time they suit up in British Columbia. That said, Avon Cobourne, who still hasn’t scored a touchdown this season, could very well take advantage of the Lions' poor run defense but I doubt it will be enough.

The Lions will get rid of their demons after having a poor 1-4 record ATS in their last five home games in Vancouver.

PICK: B.C.

Friday’s Betting Tips: Rockies' CarGo Hurt Again

Who’s Hot

MLB: San Francisco has won seven of its last nine.

MLB: The over is 12-4 in Baltimore's last 16 games overall.

CFL: The over is 4-10 in the last 14 meetings between Hamilton and B.C.

Who’s Not

MLB: Cincinnati is 3-7 in Bronson Arroyo's last 10 home starts.

MLB: Oakland has won only three of its last 16 visits to Yankee Stadium.

CFL: Hamilton has covered in four of its last five games against B.C.

Key Stat

1.7 – The Pittsburgh Pirates headed into Thursday’s action atop the NL Central with a 51-45 record, but according to Accuscore.com, they have just a 1.7 percent chance to make the playoffs.

Injury That Shouldn’t Be Overlooked

Pablo Sandoval, San Francisco Giants - Sandoval was forced out of Wednesday's game with a sore right triceps, but after an off day on Thursday, the team hopes he will be ready to return to the lineup Friday in the series opener against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Game Of The Day

Milwaukee Brewers at San Francisco Giants (-120, 6.5)

Notable Quotable

“I know the (Hamilton) defense inside out. I pretty much know the offensive scheme,” Dennis said. “I’ll leak all of that to my new team. I’ll let everybody know anything we need to do to win. I’ll sit down with the players and coaches and share my knowledge. Individually, I’ve already gone to Geroy (Simon) and told him how he can beat his man.” – B.C. Lions DB Jerome Dennis on giving his new team an advantage when they go up against his old team, the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, on Friday. Dennis was released by Hamilton earlier this week. The Lions are set as a 3-point home favorite.

Tips And Notes

Colorado Rockies outfielder Carlos Gonzalez left Thursday’s game in the middle of an at-bat in the fifth inning with an apparent wrist injury and was taken to hospital for X-rays. Now there is some concern that he could be headed for the disabled list. CarGo already missed a few games with a wrist injury, but he thought it had healed. Gonzalez is hitting .288 with 15 homers and 56 RBIs.

David Wright is expected to return to the New York Mets’ lineup Friday for the first time since he landed on the DL with a stress fracture in his back on May 16. Wright was hitting just .226 with six homers at the time of his injury but was hitting .476 at Class A St. Lucie during his rehab stint without any discomfort.

David Ortiz is eligible to play Friday against Seattle after serving his three-game suspension for his part in an altercation with Baltimore’s Kevin Gregg on July 8. Boston is set as a -135 favorite and about 68 percent of Covers.com Consensus bettors are backing the BoSox.
