Service Plays Thursday 7/28/11

[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

MLB NEWS AND NOTES
LA Angels Open MLB Odds Series At Detroit Tigers
By: Jeff Grant

Los Angeles Angels at Detroit Tigers (-120, 9)

The Detroit Tigers and Los Angeles Angels both have their sights set on reaching the playoffs as they prepare for a second meeting time this season starting Thursday. First pitch for the series opener is scheduled at 10:05 a.m. (PT) at Comerica Park.

Los Angeles will be concluding a 10-game road trip in the Motor City and trails the Texas Rangers in the American League West race. The Angels have tallied an AL-best 25-12 record since June 13, but were unable to pick up ground due to the Rangers' 12-game winning streak earlier this month.

The Halos took two of three from the Tigers just before the all-star break in Anaheim and are 53-29 overall in the series dating back to 2002. That includes a 31-15 mark in the Motor City.

Joel Pineiro (5-5, 4.61 ERA) gets the opening assignment and will be looking to snap a two-game losing streak. He has allowed 11 runs (10 earned) and 15 hits over 5 2/3 innings in that span. The right-hander has tallied a losing 2-3 record and 4.95 ERA in eight road outings, issuing 15 walks and registering just 16 punch outs in 43 2/3 frames. Opponents are hitting .304 against him away from Angel Stadium.

Pineiro enters with a solid 8-3 record and 3.16 ERA in 14 appearances (12 starts) versus the Tigers, including a 3-1 mark and 4.91 ERA in four outings (three starts) at today’s venue. Despite his success at Comerica Park, bettors will find that the Angels are 3-7 in his last 10 road outings, while the ‘over’ is 5-2 in that particular situation.

Detroit will come into this important weekend series as a division leader and will look to even up its 12-13 record versus AL West foes. Starting pitching has been a strength for the club all season, but the bullpen ranks 29th in the majors with a 4.69 ERA.

The Tigers have been relying heavily on the offensive exploits of shortstop Jhonny Peralta, who is hitting .400 since the All-Star Game with two home runs and 11 RBIs. Due to having a potent lineup and a shaky bullpen, the ‘over’ is 54-41 in Detroit’s games this season.

Brad Penny (7-7, 4.51 ERA) has won two of his last three outings and will aim to improve his even 3-3 mark and 5.50 ERA in nine starts versus the Angels. He walked away with a 5-4 road victory over Los Angeles on July 6, giving up four runs and six hits over 6 1/3 innings.

The right-hander has been much better in front of the home fans this year than on the road, posting a 4-2 record and 3.15 ERA in 11 home starts compared to a 3-5 mark and 6.36 ERA in nine road outings. He will need to pitch carefully to Angels designated hitter Bobby Abreu, who comes in with a .340 average and two home runs in 53 career at-bats against him.

Weather forecasts are calling for game-time highs in the mid-to-upper-80s with a 50 percent chance of scattered thunderstorms. The wind will be blowing in a southwesterly direction at 10-15 mph (right to left). The ‘over’ is 3-1 at Comerica Park in those conditions.

Thursday's Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

STREAKING

Josh Beckett, Boston Red Sox (9-3, 2.07 ERA)

Even a hyperextended knee couldn’t slow down Boston’s ace. Beckett has allowed just one run over two starts since suffering the injury and now sits second in the bigs with his 2.07 ERA.

A solo homer was the only blemish on his resume in his last start against Seattle. He went seven innings while striking out seven and walking one.

Scott Baker, Minnesota Twins (8-5, 2.88 ERA)

The Twins were holding their breath when Baker made his first start off the DL against the Tigers, but he made it through five innings all right in a 4-1 victory.

Baker, who has battled an oblique problem and elbow soreness, didn’t allow a run over those five frames and had to throw just 82 pitches. He could be working with a pitch count Thursday and don’t expect the Twins to push him for a while.


SLUMPING

Chris Capuano, New York Mets (8-10, 4.26 ERA)

Things looked pretty good for Capuano through four innings of his last start against Florida. Then the fifth inning came along.

Capuano headed into the fifth with a two-run lead but then gave up a couple of jacks and four runs before getting the hook.

“It all comes down to execution,” Capuano told reporters after dropping his third straight start. “It’s just a couple of pitches that I didn’t quite get where I wanted to.”

Joel Pineiro, Los Angeles Angels (5-5, 4.61 ERA)

Pineiro gave up only three runs over 5 1/3 innings in his last start after allowing seven earned runs in only 1/3 of an inning, but that doesn’t mean he’s out of the woods just yet.

Pineiro also yielded 11 hits in the 3-2 loss to Baltimore and his skipper was far from impressed.

“J.P. really struggled to be honest with you,” manager Mike Scioscia told reporters. “The ball was up, he was behind a lot of counts, he really had trouble repeating pitches to put hitters away. It just didn’t seem like he was able to take control of the game.”

HOT LINES

Thursday's Best MLB Bets

Baltimore Orioles at Toronto Blue Jays (-150, 9.5)

The Blue Jays made a major splash in the trade department Wednesday by pulling off a pair of deals that put the likes of Colby Rasmus, Mark Teahen, Brian Tallet, Trever Miller, and P.J. Walters in Jays jerseys.

The big fish here is Rasmus, who has a lot of upside but butted heads with St. Louis manager Tony LaRussa before the deal.

"No, he doesn't listen to the Cardinal coaches much now, and that's why he gets in these funks, in my opinion," La Russa told KDSK TV-5 earlier this week. "If he would just stay with (basically) what they teach, he would have ... but I actually feel concern for him, because he hears it from so many places, he's got to be confused."

It was obviously time to move on for the 24-year-old and he could develop into a solid everyday player for Toronto. The new faces in the clubhouse should be a boost for the club.

PICK: Toronto


Los Angeles Angels at Detroit Tigers (-120, 9)

A day after Ervin Santana fired the first no-hitter of his career and the Angels’ first no-no in almost three decades, the club’s supporters may be in for an entirely different type of performance on the hill.

Thursday’s starter, Joel Pineiro, has allowed 25 hits over his last 12 2/3 innings.

Meanwhile, the Tigers are coming off a 5-3 road trip after dropping a 2-1 decision to the White Sox on Wednesday. The big problem in that loss was that Detroit had just one hit in nine chances with runners in scoring position.

“The thing that frustrates you a little bit is when you have opportunity after opportunity,” Tigers manger Jim Leyland told reporters. “If you just take one or two hits in that game, you might have three or four runs."

We think that a matchup against Pineiro should fix those issues.

PICK: Detroit

WNBA NEWS AND NOTES
WNBA: Mercury - Silver Stars Preview
By Associated Press

Phoenix Mercury at San Antonio Silver Stars (-2, 182)

The San Antonio Silver Stars closed out a three-game road swing on a positive note. The Phoenix Mercury are hoping to begin their own trip in positive fashion after wrapping up a disappointing homestand.

The Silver Stars return home looking for a fourth victory in five games Thursday afternoon against the Mercury, who have won five of six on the road - including an impressive performance in San Antonio last month.

Three days after starting their trip sandwiched around the All-Star break with a 10-point win in Los Angeles on July 18, the Silver Stars (10-5) turned in their worst performance of the season. They shot a woeful 27.7 percent and trailed by as many as 28 points in a 73-55 loss at Seattle last Thursday.

San Antonio's Becky Hammon was honored at Saturday's All-Star game as one of the WNBA's top 15 players of all-time, and in her first game after the break, she played like one. Hammon had 22 points - the team's only starter in double figures - and the Silver Stars took advantage of 19 Washington turnovers Tuesday in a 73-67 victory.

"Most of the time I feel like I have to get other people going,'' said Hammon, who entered with a league-best 6.2 assists per game but had only two against the Mystics. "On nights when it's a struggle, sometimes you just have to take more shots than you normally would.''

Phoenix's Diana Taurasi, who joined Hammon on the WNBA's top 15 list, also returned from the break with a strong performance, but her team couldn't follow suit. Taurasi had 26 points, four assists and three steals Tuesday against Seattle, but the rest of her team shot 34.0 percent in an 83-77 loss.

"We didn't come to play,'' Mercury coach Corey Gaines said. "I talked to the team, they listened. We just didn't come to play. Just didn't play well.''

Phoenix (10-6) lost 106-98 to Minnesota on July 20 after opening its homestand with a win over Washington, but has been more comfortable on the road lately.

The Mercury, who visit New York and Minnesota after leaving San Antonio, are 5-1 away from home since June 21, when they beat the Silver Stars 105-98 behind 30 points from Taylor and 20 from Candice Dupree.

Hammon outscored Taurasi 28-7, but it didn't make a difference.

As much as the Mercury rely on Taurasi's scoring, she's been making a concentrated effort on finding her teammates more often, averaged 5.6 assists in July - more than double her 2.4 mark in June.

The Silver Stars, meanwhile, need to get their other All-Star going. Rookie center Danielle Adams has totaled 17 points in her past three games after averaging 17.6 in her previous six contests.

Adams had 16 points in 19 minutes in the Silver Stars' 101-99 win at Phoenix on June 17.

LADY LUCK

Thursday's Best WNBA Bets

Phoenix Mercury at San Antonio Silver Stars (-2, 182)

If there’s one thing that should get the Phoenix Mercury back in the groove, it’s a date with the San Antonio Silver Stars.

Phoenix has covered the spread in six of its last seven meetings with San Antonio and dropped the Silver Stars 105-98 as a 3.5-point road underdog near the end of June.

However, the Mercury are sputtering. They dropped consecutive games at home against Minnesota and Seattle before packing their bags for a three-game road trip.

And after their last performance, you’d better believe they’ll want to get off on the right foot Thursday.

"We didn't come to play,'' Mercury coach Corey Gaines told reporters after the club’s loss to Seattle. “I talked to the team, they listened. We just didn't come to play. Just didn't play well.''

Diana Taurasi was the lone exception as she downed 26 points, but the team needs more from players like Penny Taylor, who was held to seven points.

We think the Mercury step up in a big way.

PICK: Phoenix


Washington Mystics at New York Liberty (-11, 149)

The Liberty have dropped two of their last three games, including a 85-79 loss in Connecticut as a 5-point underdog. Coach Whisenant has a pretty good idea what went wrong in that one.

"When we are consistently shooting 10 less free throws then our opponent, that's a sign that we aren't aggressive going to the basket," Whisenant told the Liberty's official website. "That's a sign that we're shooting too many jump shots. We need to go to the basket."

So it’s not exactly rocket science. Still, this line isn’t nearly as easy to figure out. New York shouldn’t have a problem winning this one at home, but we’re looking at a lot of points here.

These teams meet four times between now and the middle of August. We’re thinking the Liberty make a statement here.

PICK: New York

CFL NEWS AND NOTES
CFL: Lions-Blue Bombers Preview
By Adam Markowitz

B.C. Lions at Winnipeg Blue Bombers (-3, 52)

Teams that used to share the West Division together square off for the final time at Canad Inns Stadium on Thursday night in CFL betting action, as the Winnipeg Blue Bombers meet up with the BC Lions.

The Leos have been handed another tough loss, and it is clear that this is becoming another frustrating start to the season. BC knows that it is going to be in trouble going forward as the only team without a win this year, and Head Coach Wally Buono probably won’t be able to survive another 1-7 start to the season like he had last year. He was lucky to get the Leos into the postseason a year ago, and right now, he looks like he’d be lucky to get the job done this year as well. The problem last season all revolved around the offense. There was no consistency under center at the quarterback position, as the Lions went back and forth between Jarious Jackson and Travis Lulay. This year, it’s been Lulay’s job 100% of the time, but though he is one of the few QBs in Canada to have thrown for over 1,000 yards on the campaign, he also only has a 54.0 completion percentage. The defense has been a train wreck as well, allowing at least 30 points in all four outings. That just won’t get the job done, needless to say, e
specially against a hot Winnipeg team.

Things are just working well right now for the ‘Peg, though it knows that the schedule is going to get significantly tougher than this in the near future. The Blue Bombers are a 4-0 ATS team, one of the two in CFL betting action, and they are just short of a perfect SU record at 3-1 as well. If BC’s defense has been a disaster, Winnipeg’s has been a dream. The 24 points conceded last week to the Toronto Argonauts was the worst number of the season, but fortunately, the offense really came to shine. QB Buck Pierce was a question mark for the game after suffering a quadriceps injury two weeks ago, but he came out with vengeance and just never looked back. The former member of the Lions went 22-of-27 for 361 yards and three TDs, but most importantly, he didn’t throw an interception. If the defense can keep up this pace and the offense is taking care of the football for the most part, Winnipeg could be a playoff team once again this season after missing out last year.

We have a ton of confidence right now in the Blue Bombers, something that we just don’t have in BC. The Lions are a much improved team, no doubt, as they are staying in games. However, when push comes to shove, this week, we have to go with the Blue Bombers -3.5, especially in their own backyard.

CANADIAN BACON

Thursday's Best CFL Bet

B.C. Lions at Winnipeg Blue Bombers (-3, 52)

The situation is getting desperate for the Lions, who are the only winless team in the CFL. And it won’t be an easy task to pick up their first win in Winnipeg this Thursday after a short week of preparation.

The departure of WR Manny Arceneaux (NFL) was costlier than anticipated. The vertical attack of the Lions doesn’t scare anyone in the league. And defensively, veteran Davis Sanchez, at 36, has lost a step and was moved from cornerback to safety after a terrible start. The knee injury that ended the season of defensive back Stanley Franks only made the secondary more fragile. It remains unknown whether the addition of rookie Travis Williams as a wide-side cornerback will make it better or worse.

You can bet that Bombers QB Buck Pierce will try to exploit the lack of CFL experience on the Lions stop unit. Bettors should also consider that the Winnipeg defense has been solid so far.

CFL bettors will watch the Bombers declaw the Lions and keep B.C. winless.

PICK: Winnipeg

Thursday’s Betting Tips: Tribe Battles Historic Trend

Who's Hot

MLB: Atlanta is 13-3 in its last 16 home games.

MLB: The over is 8-2 in Florida’s last 10 road games.

CFL: Winnipeg is 9-1-1 against the spread in its last 11 games.

WNBA: Even though Tulsa is 1-15 straight up this season, the Shock are 7-3-1 against the spread in their last 11 home games.

Who’s Not

MLB: The Chicago Cubs are 7-20 in their last 27 road games.

MLB: Kansas City has won just nine of its last 32 games in Boston.

CFL: The over is 2-9 in the last 11 meetings between Winnipeg and B.C.

WNBA: Los Angeles is 2-8 against the spread in its last 10 road games.

Key Stat

265.8 – The Winnipeg Blue Bombers lead the CFL in total defense by a small landslide, allowing just 265.8 yards per game. Toronto owns the next best defense in the league giving up 318.8 yards per contest. Winnipeg is set as a 3-point favorite Thursday against the B.C. Lions.

Injury That Shouldn’t Be Overlooked

Erika de Souza, Atlanta Dream – The Dream’s starting center is reportedly dealing with a concussion and is listed as questionable for Thursday’s game against the Los Angeles Sparks. The 6-foot-5 force in the middle played just 11 minutes in the club’s last contest but is averaging 11.6 points and 8.1 rebounds per game.

Game Of The Day

Pittsburgh Pirates at Atlanta Braves (-155, 7.5)

Notable Quotable

"When you have [Lindsay] Whalen coming down on the break and you have Maya [Moore] and Augustus on the sides, that's like having Kobe and Dwyane Wade coming on the wing. Who do you guard? Who do you check? They are talented, they are athletic, they are fast. [Rebekkah] Brunson is a beast. Taj [McWilliams-Franklin] is experienced. In my mind, they should be the [WNBA] favorite with the skill set they have." – Los Angeles Sparks coach Joe “Jellybean” Bryant on the Minnesota Lynx. Minnesota dropped L.A. 85-72 earlier this week to move into first place in the Western Conference standings. Minnesota is currently listed at +450 to win the WNBA Championship, behind the Seattle Storm (+300)

Tips And Notes

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers are trying to cope with the death of Richard Harris, their assistant head coach and defensive line coach, ahead of Thursday’s game with the B.C. Lions. Harris, 63, reportedly collapsed in his office at Canad Inns Stadium on Tuesday afternoon. The Blue Bombers are set as 3.5-point home favorites.

If history holds true, Thursday could be another bad day for the Cleveland Indians, who were no-hit by Ervine Santana of the Angels. Since 2000, the team gets no-hit is 6-16 in its next game, while the under is 17-5, cashing in on 13 of the last 15.

The North Carolina Tar Heels fired head coach Butch Davis just nine days before the start of preseason. His dismissal was based on the NCAA investigation about improper benefits and academic misconduct that continues to plague the program.
