Toronto/Boston Under 8.5 (POD)
Toronto is on the road at Boston now, they lost 1-5 yesterday to Detroit, Halladay had an odd start last time, he had a 1.35 era against Cleveland at home, I actually went against him and picked up the +230 dog price with Byrd, he gave up 10 hits, but lost just 2-4, he looks to bounce-back today and he likely will do so, he had a 1.04 era against Boston last game as he faced Lester and lost 0-1, he looks to rebound from that to, he faces Byrd who the Red Sox have seem improve a great deal the last couple of games as he is 4-0 of late with eras of 1.60, 0, 1.29 and 2, and he won several games on the road including the Angels, Yankees and the Twins, which is tough to do and shutout Detroit at home, so of course, Boston was interested, if anything a lean on the under here as Byrd shows up in his first game for the fans at Fenway and Halladay looks to avenge his last loss and the last 0-1 loss to Lester, likely a 2-4 ballgame of sorts. Under is 6-2-1 in the last 9 meetings between these 2 teams meaning the pitching shows up, Toronto's hitting has been questionable all year, Halladay is 8-2-1 to the under on grass, Halladay on a bounce-back and revenge against Boston earlier this year and Byrd wants to make a good showing for the fans at Fenway and has been pitching well, thus, good spot for the under.

Game: Los Angeles Angels at Cleveland (7:05 PM Eastern)
Pick: Game Total OVER 8 -110
<!--p-->
The Cleveland Indians did almost nothing for most of the season, but they certainly have come alive over the last 19 games where they have averaged 5.6 runs a game. The Indians seem like a team really swinging the bats, and they are, but not compared to what this Angels’ offense has been producing over their last 19 games. The Angels have scored 133 runs or seven per game, so combined these teams have been scoring at the rate of 12.6 runs a game for the last three weeks. We have two of the hottest offenses in baseball right now playing to a total of eight runs. It is quite possible to see one of these teams reach that total on their own, so we will play the OVER in this one.

Sports Reporter
They can be streaky like all other services. Sorry you caught a bad month with them a while back. I have joined many services over the last 30 years and just happen to find them the most consistent, along with being honest unlike others I've joined like ATS who give out lines many times you can never get and then pump their chest everytime they win and try to get you to upgrade to their next level of service.
One thing I've learned over the years is that the guarenteed picks in baseball is not the way to go as USUALLY all the tout is going to do is try to guarantee himself money with one of the highest favorites on the board even if it isn't truly value. Although I realize that's been a touchy topic in this forum. The other is avoid services with multiple levels of picks. It's tough enough to win with one level, let alone three or four (ATS killed me on this and lied consisteny but they spend more time on marketing than sports selections).
I have to admit, Sports Reporter was more valuable when Dave Malinsky was associated with them but he has long since gone on his own. I prefer a service who only has one level of service, consistent grading of selections (1-5, 1-10) not 10, 100, 1000. That is ridiculous. Others who seem consistent in my years of following are California Sports, to some extent Winning Points and now I might have to add Chris James sports.
Again, good luck to all and hope no one has to experience what I did last night with brutal losses on the same game:
<HR style="COLOR: #fdde82" SIZE=1> <!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->
3 units : Carolina +3 1/2
2 units : Under 36
1 unit : Parlay Carolina / Under.
1 unit : Philly team total under 20.
Past the midway point of the 4th quarter :
Carolina 13, Philly 0.
I'm thinking EASY sweep, instead I got swept.
Almost impossible.
