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

MLB NEWS AND NOTES
Cleveland Indians Battle Blue Jays, MLB Odds
By: Matty Simo

Toronto Blue Jays at Cleveland Indians (-110, 9.5)

Cleveland starting pitcher Mitch Talbot will look to break a personal four-game losing streak and earn his first win at Progressive Field this season when the Indians host the Toronto Blue Jays in the second game of a four-game series on Friday. Game time is scheduled for 4:05 p.m. (PT).

Talbot (2-5, 5.60 ERA) has gone winless in his last six outings with an 0-4 record and two no-decisions. He is 0-2 in four home starts with a 6.86 ERA but has only pitched there once over the last month.

The last time Talbot pitched at Progressive Field came on June 21, when he went 6 1/3 innings and gave up three runs and eight hits with two walks and two strikeouts. Cleveland lost that game 4-3 as a +120 home underdog, and Talbot has not been a favorite in any of his 10 starts so far this year.

Ironically, the last win for Talbot came against the Blue Jays back on May 31. He allowed just one run and six hits in 6 2/3 innings of a 6-3 victory at Toronto.

The Blue Jays will send 26-year-old southpaw Jo-Jo Reyes (3-7, 4.85) to the mound searching for his first win in four starts. Reyes is 0-2 in his past three outings, surrendering 14 runs in 15 innings over that stretch. He has been an underdog in five of his last six starts.

A former member of the Braves, Reyes started just five games combined during his previous two seasons in Atlanta, He is five starts away from setting a career high he achieved there in 2008 when he started 23 games.

Reyes is also only one victory away from totaling a career-high four wins, which does not necessarily say much for a pitcher who owns a lifetime record of 8-22.

The one major accomplishment Reyes can hang his baseball cap on this season is the first complete-game victory of his career which he earned at home against Cleveland on May 30. He allowed just one run to the Indians on eight hits over nine innings with four walks and four strikeouts in an 11-1 rout.

The only mistake he made was serving up a solo home run to Shelley Duncan in the fourth inning.

The ‘over’ has cashed in the last two starts for Reyes – both at home – while his past two road outings have gone ‘under’ the total. Similarly, Talbot’s last two starts have gone ‘over’ though they were both on the road while his last two at home have each gone ‘under’ the total.

This series marks the second and final meeting between the two clubs this season. The Indians won two of three in Toronto (May 30-June 1), all three contests going 'over' the total. Cleveland won four of the seven played at Progressive Field a season ago, the 'under' going 4-3 in those matchups.

Friday’s weather forecast in Cleveland calls for a high temperature of 82 degrees under partly cloudy skies and a low of 65.

Friday's Streaking And Slumping Starting Pitchers

STREAKING

Gio Gonzalez (8-5, 2.31 ERA), Oakland Athletics

Not long after being named to the AL All-Star team, Gonzalez put out another ho-hum seven-inning shutout of the Arizona Diamondbacks, striking out seven and walking three. That effort dropped his ERA to 2.31 on the year and to just 0.82 over his last four starts.

Oakland catcher Kurt Suzuki says the lefty is controlling his emotions better this season.

"Emotions aren't bad," Suzuki told MLB.com. "If you can control them and use them the right way, the way he does, it works. His emotions are because he cares so much. He wants to do so well and be so successful that sometimes they get the best of him. But now he's learning how to control them and express them in the right way."

Javier Vazquez (4-8, 5.64 ERA), Florida Marlins

The bad news is Vazquez gave up a couple of homers in his last outing. The good news is those are the only two runs he’s allowed over his last three starts.

We’ve seen solid stretches from the veteran in the past, though it’s hard to know when it may all fall apart for him.

“The life of my fastball is back, and I feel a lot better,” he told reporters this week. “Sometimes because my velocity wasn’t there, I would try to trick people. Now that my fastball is back, I’m trying to stay more aggressive, mix it up better.”


SLUMPING

Jason Hammel (4-8, 4.31 ERA), Colorado Rockies

Hammel is coming off a terrible outing that saw him give up seven hits and five earned runs over just 3 2/3 innings in a 16-8 blowout loss to the Kansas City Royals. He labored through 67 pitches and gave up a pair of homers while walking a pair and striking out one.

Hammel has just a 53:39 strikeout-to-walk ratio, so when he’s missing his spots, he’s in big trouble. He has allowed at least four runs in three of his last four and is a pegged as a +115 underdog Friday.

Nick Blackburn (6-6, 4.02 ERA), Minnesota Twins

It’s hard to know what to expect from Blackburn this season. He started the year by losing four of his first five starts, then won five of six between the middle of May to the end of June and now he’s struggling again.

He has allowed 13 earned runs over his last 8 1/3 innings, giving up 19 hits over that span. The 6-foot-4, 240-pounder has struck out more than four batters just once in his last seven starts.

HOT LINES

Friday’s Best MLB Bets

Colorado Rockies at Washington Nationals (-125, 8)

The Colorado Rockies couldn’t be happier to get the heck out of Atlanta after taking a four-game sweep on the chin and even though shortstop Troy Tulowitzki will likely be out for a few more days, Carlos Gonzalez may return from his wrist injury Friday.

The Rockies could certainly use the boost. They may have won eight of their last 10 in Washington, may have their work cut out for them in D.C. this time around.

The Nationals are doing a great job winning the games they’re supposed to, riding a 12-3 run in games in which they are favored. They’ve also managed to win 20 of their last 29 at home and are 8-1 in Jason Marquis’ last nine in front of the home crowd.

For now at least, it looks as though Davey Johnson is the right man for the Nats’ clubhouse.

"Davey's been wonderful for this team," F.P. Santangelo, the Nationals' TV color commentator, told ESPN recently. "The one thing he's done is make everyone feel included. I think the atmosphere in the clubhouse is different now."

PICK: Nationals


Seattle Mariners at Los Angeles Angels (-160, 6)

Seattle Mariners rookie Blake Bevan did exactly what he was told in his first big-league start and ended up with a dominant seven-inning performance that saw him give up just a single run on three hits in a win over San Diego.

It helped that he was throwing to catcher Josh Bard, who also caught him in the minors. Word has it Bevan didn’t shake the veteran backstop off all night.

“Sometimes, you make it so complicated trying to trick guys and do all the stuff, you can throw the perfect trick pitch but if you throw it down the middle and it’s hanging, it doesn’t matter,” Bard told reporters. “We really talked to him about execution with his heater. He pitched in, he pitched out. He probably only threw 20 off speed pitches the whole game, and did a good job.”

It’s probably not going to be that easy every time he takes the hill, but with Ervin Santana sharing the mound with him, we’ll play under the tiny total.

PICK: Under

WNBA NEWS AND NOTES
WNBA: Liberty-Silver Stars Preview
By Brett Huston

New York Liberty at San Antonio Silver Stars (-7.5, 163.5)

After a fantastic first month, the San Antonio Silver Stars opened July with a tough loss at Madison Square Garden.

They didn’t have to wait too long to get another crack at beating the New York Liberty.

With a week’s break separating this home-and-home set, the Silver Stars look to get back on track Friday night at the AT&T Center and avoid falling to the Liberty for a fifth straight time.

San Antonio (7-2) won seven of its eight games in June to grab first place in the Western Conference, and had a chance to notch its second four-game winning streak of the season last Friday at MSG.

A poor shooting performance ensured that wouldn’t happen. The Silver Stars shot a season-low 34.2 percent and missed 23 of 30 attempts from beyond the arc in an 81-75 loss.

“We didn’t play particularly well,” said San Antonio guard Becky Hammon, who had 16 points against her former team. “We didn’t execute our defensive game plan the way we wanted to and we didn’t shoot the ball well. It’s hard to win when you shoot 35 percent.”

The Silver Stars haven’t played particularly well against the Liberty for a while. Last week’s defeat was their fourth consecutive in the series. They’ve shot 40.6 percent and averaged 69.8 points in those losses.

Getting Essence Carson back could help New York (5-5) continue its dominance of San Antonio. Carson, who had averaged 15.9 points in her previous seven games, missed last week’s win with traumatic iritis to her right eye but is expected to play Friday.

While Cappie Pondexter led the way with 19 points last week for the Liberty, it was Plenette Pierson who made the difference down the stretch. Pierson scored 10 of her 14 points in the final 4:08.

She’s averaged 16.0 points and shot 58.9 percent in New York’s wins, as opposed to 10.2 points while shooting 46.7 percent in her team’s losses.

“I’m a veteran in this league. I’ve been there, done that many times before,” Pierson said. “It’s not how you play the entire game, it’s how you finish.”

Silver Stars forward Danielle Adams has been playing like a seasoned veteran, leading all rookies at 16.2 points per game. She had a team-high 19 against the Liberty despite missing seven of nine 3-point attempts.

Adams is shooting 37.8 percent from beyond the arc overall, though, and has an impressive inside-outside game - she’s also second on the team with 4.7 rebounds per game.

Liberty rookie Sydney Colson, her teammate at Texas A&M, knows Adams’ game well.

“She can shoot outside, she can take you inside,” Colson said. “She has quick feet for her size and she really lulls people to sleep and you’re not expecting her to do what she can do.”

LADY LUCK

Friday's Best WNBA Bets

New York Liberty at San Antonio Silver Stars (-7.5, 163.5)

Both teams have had a week off after the Liberty handed San Antonio its second loss of the season with an 81-75 victory in the Big Apple. That’s more than enough time for the Silver Stars to get back on track.

They hit only 34 percent of their shots from the floor in that loss, down for their 45-percent season average. These Silver Stars are a deep bunch that can beat you a lot of different ways.

Take Danielle Adams for example. She just won Rookie of the Month honors for June, putting up 16.2 points and 4.7 rebounds off the bench.

"Defensively for a rookie, she really moves her feet and positions very well," San Antonio coach Dan Hughes said of Adams. "And offensively she gives you a unique weapon from the standpoint of you can really challenge post players to guard her away from the basket, yet she's strong enough inside to get some things done at the basket."

New York’s on a nice roll here, but we can’t back the Liberty with the Silver Stars returning home.

PICK: San Antonio


Phoenix Mercury at Tulsa Shock (9.5, 182.5)

Before we tackle this matchup, let’s recap the Shock’s last two games.

They were absolutely hammered 83-63 at Washington as a 7.5-point underdog and then came back to the comforts of home to get drilled 101-71 by Minnesota as a 8.5-point underdog, which put the club 5-12 against the spread in their last 17 games at home.

Now they have to take on Phoenix, which just hung 101 points on the board against Los Angeles and has covered in six of its last seven games overall.

This has the makings of a blowout written all over it and while you might be a bit worried about a backdoor cover after the Mercury regulars do their thing, it should still end up as a double-digit Phoenix victory.

And if you're feeling really sassy, we wouldn't scold you for throwing an over bet in a tasty little parlay.

PICK: Phoenix

CFL NEWS AND NOTES
CFL Betting Preview: Stampeders-Lions
By BettingSportsReview

Calgary Stampeders vs. B.C Lions (-2.5, 53.5)

This game features last year’s best team the Calgary Stampeders against a western rival in the B.C Lions. Both teams opened the season with a loss, Calgary lost a tight one to the Argos with a final score of 23-21, bettors who took our pick of the Argos to win and the under were paid out quite nicely. The Lions lost a shoot out against Montreal 26-30 making the bettors of the over winners. Calgary had the best record in the west last year and the majority of the Stampeders’ starters on offence and defence return for the 2011 season. The Stamps were one of the league’s best offence and look to continue that this season.

The B.C Lions made some good off season moves to bolster their front line giving QB Travis Lulay time to make plays from the pocket. As seen in their game against Montreal when given time Lalay can find open targets and move the ball down the field. We will see if the Lions can repeat their performance of last week against the Stampeders

This is one of my money picks of the week. I feel that oddsmakers are over rating the Lions after last week’s performance and under valuating the Stampeders and is the reason we only see a field goal separating the point spread in this game. My sports betting pick is on the Stampeders to cover, last year’s best team in the regular season should be able to pull out the win over the Lions who’s inconsistency on offence will be enough for the Stamps to move to 1-1 on the season.

I also like the Over in this game, Calgary was one of the best offensive teams last year and the Lions look to be making a move in the right direction putting up much better offensive totals than last season.

Friday's Best CFL Bets

Toronto Argonauts at Winnipeg Blue Bombers (+1, 48)

Winnipeg quarterback Buck Pierce was hit hard on the blind side in the third quarter of the Bombers’ 24-16 win over the Tiger-Cats. But the injury-prone Pierce got back up, finished the game and will play Friday.

The Bombers, however, weren’t able to avoid the injury bug altogether. Receiver Kito Poblah (knee), SB Terrence Edwards (arm), WR Greg Carr (hamstring) are all hurt, although only Poblah is expected to miss Friday’s game. Defensive end Odell Willis (groin) and DB Jovon Johnson (hip) will play despite injuries, while LB Henoc Muamba (knee) and S Brady Browne (biceps) will miss at least a few weeks.

Toronto’s top offensive weapons Corey Boyd and Chad Owens picked up where they left off last year, helping the Argos steal a 23-21 win in Calgary last week. But unfortunately for Toronto bettors, the Argos still must rely on Cleo Lemon at pivot. He only completed 16-of-30 passes with 186 yards, one TD and one pick.

To keep things in perspective, if Calgary hadn’t miss three of four field goal opportunities, it would have won against the Argos.

PICK: Winnipeg


Calgary Stampeders at B.C. Lions (-2.5, 53.5)

The Stampeders are coming to Vancouver with the firm intent to rebound from a loss to the Argos. Calgary has its share of injuries after one week. Defensive tackle Justin Phillips (toe), K Rob Maver (leg), G Dimitri Tsoumpas (hamstring) and S Malik Jackson (concussion) are probably all out against the Lions. Receivers Ken-Yon Rambo and Jabari Arthur are questionable.

British Columbia lost its first game of the season, 30-26 in Montreal, and dropped both home games against Calgary last year. The Lions will have DB Stanley Franks and of S J.R. LaRose back in action for Week 2. Slot back Nick Moore, who dropped three passes, two of them possibly for TDs, is out with an elbow injury. Rookie Steven Black will replace him and showed great potential during training camp.

In any case, with Geroy Simon, Paris Jackson and youngsters Shawn Gore and Akeem Foster, QB Travis Lulay has many options when it comes to throwing the ball. In the loss against the Alouettes, Lulay completed 26-of-45 attempts with 366 yards and a TD.

The Stampeders secondary still must prove itself and that could play in the favor of B.C. The Lions have also shown some pop on special teams, especially with newcomer Tim Brown (191 yards on nine returns, one of them being a 97 yard TD).

PICK: B.C.

Hondo

The Pale Hose socked it to Hondo last night as they were thrashed by the Twins to push the soaring deficit to a season-high 1,700 kellers.

Tonight, Mr. Aitch is counting on steady Freddy to be ready to slay the Rays -- 10 units on the Yanks.
