Service Plays Wednesday 7/28/10

[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

Streaking and Slumping Pitchers

Streaking

Fausto Carmona, Cleveland Indians (10-7, 3.51 ERA)

There haven’t been many bright spots for the Tribe in 2010. However, Carmona could have something going in Cleveland after winning three straight starts. The Indians right hander has been steady over his last eight outings, boasting a 6-2 record and 3.53 ERA. Carmona went five shutout innings in his last start, leading Cleveland to a 3-1 win over the Tampa Bay Rays.


Slumping

Edwin Jackson, Arizona Diamondbacks (6-9, 5.01 ERA)

The D-backs’ hurler has dropped three starts in a row heading into Wednesday. Jackson has given up 13 runs on 23 hits in that span, including allowing four earned runs – six total – in a 7-4 loss to the San Francisco Giants Friday. He had two throwing errors leading to three runs in that defeat.


Debuting

Eddie Bonine, Detroit Tigers (4-0, 2.72 ERA)

A doubleheader over the weekend has the Tigers digging in their bullpen for Wednesday’s starter. Bonine gets the call for his first start since September 2009. He went 1-1 in three starts last year, giving up five total runs in just under 17 innings of work. He has made 31 appearances out of the Detroit bullpen this season, taking the bump for 1 1-3 innings in a 6-5 win over the Toronto Blue Jays Sunday.

Hot Lines: Today's best MLB bets

Florida Marlins at San Francisco Giants (-137, 8)

The Giants must get a big smile whenever they see a team from the National League East on their schedule. San Francisco is a sparkling 15-8 against teams from the opposite coast this year, winning six of seven series against those teams.

And the team’s play against the Marlins has backed up those numbers. San Francisco is 3-1 against the Marlins this year and has gone 10-6 against the fish the past three seasons combined. Overall, the Giants have won seven of their past 10 games.

"We have a very talented club that, if we play up to what we're capable of doing, what our potential is, we're going to be fine," Giants manager Bruce Bochy told MLB.com. "This club has been playing like we think we're capable of playing."

Meantime the Marlins are just 13-16 against teams from the NL West.

Pick: Giants


Pittsburgh Pirates at Colorado Rockies (-215, 9.5)

Don’t expect to see many fireworks between these two sides.

Pittsburgh starter Ross Ohlender is a horrid 1-9 this year, but the over has hit in just three of 14 starts. For the Rockies, Aaron Cook also is an unspectacular 4-6, but the Rockies have topped the number in just eight of his 19 starts.

The Pirates also are the worst hitting road team in the Majors, have a league-low 11 away victories and have seen the under go 7-1-3 in their past 11 away games. Meantime, the Rockies haven’t been much better, floundering to a 2-8 mark in their past 10 because the team isn’t hitting. Colorado is averaging just 3.3 runs per game over that span.

"We're not playing worth a darn right now," Rockies manager Jim Tracy told the Associated Press, "but there's two months to go and we know how to fix it."

But it’ll take more than a series against the Pirates to fix the Rockies’ problems.

Pick: Under

Bettors' best friend: Wednesday's wagering tips

Lines to keep an eye on

Red Sox at Angels – This game opened with a total of 9 runs, but it has since dropped to 8.5 with many books.

Cubs at Astros – The total for this game opened at either 7.5 or 8 with many books, but has since jumped up to 8.5 in many markets.

Pittsburgh at Colorado – The home team opened as -205 chalk but that moneyline has moved to as low as -215 with some books.

Weather report
(Forecasts are extracted from Weather.com the night before the game.)

Athletics at Rangers – There is a 40 percent chance of precipitation, but just a 9 mph wind expected to blow across the diamond from third to first.

Pirates at Rockies – An 8 mph wind is expected to blow across the diamond from first toward third with a 30 percent chance of precipitation.

Marlins at Giants– A 12 mph wind is expected to blow from behind home plate toward the outfield.

Diamondbacks at Philles– A 13 mph wind is expected to blow from behind home plate toward right center field.

Dodgers at Padres – A 12 mph wind is expected to blow in from left center field toward home plate with a 20 percent chance of precipitation.

Yankees at Indians – A 13 mph wind is expected to blow in from right center field toward home plate with a 30 percent chance of precipitation.

Mariners at White Sox – A 13 mph wind is expected to blow from home plate toward left center field with a 60 percent chance of precipitation.

Cardinals at Mets – A 16 mph wind is expected to blow from behind home plate toward center field.

Who’s hot

The Marlins have won eight of their past 10 games, but wager on them for all nine innings – four of those wins have come in their final at-bat.

The Phillies are finally playing up to their potential – the team has won five straight and 12 of 14 home games, including going 7-1 in the team’s past eight as a favorite.

It’s going to take a special pitcher to slow down a white-hot Yankees lineup. The Bronx Bombers have topped the total regularly and are 8-2-1 against the number in their past 11.

Who’s not

The Mariners couldn’t hit their way out of a paper bag: the team has fallen short of the total in seven of the team’s past 10 games and is averaging a measly 3.3 runs per game this year.

The Tigers need a miracle to pull out of their tailspin. Detroit is 3-10 in its past 13 games and has scored three or fewer runs nine times over that span.

The Astros have crash landed hard the past two weeks. Houston is a pitiful 3-7 over its past 10, with bad pitching leading to the over cashing in for six of those games.

Key stat

15 – Home runs allowed this year by Yankees pitcher Phil Hughes. This number seems a little high but nothing crazy until you think about this – all of them have been hit at Yankee Stadium. He’s the first pitcher since Gaylord Perry in 1982 to give up his first 15 home runs of the year at his home ball park. Sounds like someone has become a road-only play.

Injury that shouldn’t be overlooked

Everyone thought that Jason Bay would miss some time when he crashed into a wall in Los Angeles as he made a play on the ball in the outfield. But he seemed fine. He looked fine. He’s not. Bay, who is hitting .259 with six home runs and 47 RBI, missed Tuesday’s game against the Cardinals with concussion-like symptoms. He has 48 hours to be evaluated before the team could opt to put him on the disabled list. With Carlos Beltran just returning to the lineup and a slew of other players on the DL already, this could further shake-up a batting order that has been unable to develop any consistency this year. The Mets are going to have problems scoring runs if Bay misses a significant stretch of games. "I didn't really have a headache until we got on the flight on the way home," Bay told MLB.com. "Over the last couple days, it's just some dull headaches. Given everything that happened, we'll try to be cautious."

Notable quotable

“Whether he was mentally checked out or just wasn’t quite into it down the stretch, he wasn’t the same guy. I think everybody saw that, but no one wanted to acknowledge it.”
--Toronto Raptors President and General Manager Jerry Colangelo to the Toronto Sun on Chris Bosh’s last season north of the border.

Tips and notes

- A few days ago we said jump all over the MLS All-Stars because of their fantastic, 5-0-1 record against European powers in the current format. A win over Manchester United still is very likely. However, pay close attention to who coach Bruce Arena puts into his starting XI. Not only is he the coach of the All-Stars, but he also is coach of the L.A. Galaxy, who have Landon Donovan, Edson Buddle, Omar Gonzalez and Donovan Ricketts elected to the exhibition. To complicate things even further, the Galaxy play in the CONCACAF Champions League on Tuesday night, putting the fitness of those stars in doubt, along with Toronto standout Dwayne De Rosario. The MLS side, especially listed at +1 (-140) still is a solid value. Just watch the lineup.

- If the Rockies didn’t have enough problems, things just got much worse. Closer Huston Street, who missed a majority of the season with an inflamed right shoulder, is in bad shape after getting hit in the pelvis by a line drive during batting practice on Tuesday. Street reportedly lost consciousness several times and was taken by ambulance to an area hospital. The closer has converted six-of-seven save opportunities since coming off the disabled list late last month and is a huge part of a Colorado bullpen that has a 3.83 ERA and already has eaten up more than 296 innings.

- Keep a very close eye on the Red Sox and their outfield. Jacoby Ellsbury, a fantastic defensive player who is a base-stealing demon, has played just nine games this year for Boston because of fractured ribs. However, Ellsbury looked really strong in a minor league rehab assignment last night, running down a fly ball and going 2-for-3 with a stolen base and run scored. The Red Sox are second in the league with 521 runs scored, but the team has swiped a Major League-low 33 bases and is far too reliant on extra-base hits to start rallies. With Jeremy Hermida batting a terrible .215 in left field, Ellsbury can’t get to Boston soon enough.

Bruce Chen proved he's no Doris Chen last night when he threw the Royals for a loss that caused Hondo's negative number to expand to a beefy 1,130 brohamers.

Tonight, recent history suggests Mr. Aitch has gotta go to Jo -- 10 units on Santana over the Cards. Also, His Aitchness expects Cahill to present a mound of problems for Texas -- 10 on the A's.
