The PoliticoPundit MLB Angles thread hosted by Scott and Bar

[barman]

It's 11:40pm EDT and I'd just got in from the sports bar (the SheBar is weak...what can I tell ya...I was good until 2am)

Let me take this moment to Apologize To All My Fans. (KTCK Hardline listeners will get that gag)

If I'm going to have losing selections, I'm proud when they lose in spectacular fashion.

Winner winner chickenshit dinner +80 cents with the win and push. Sometimes its not what you win its what you save.

Night all.

Statless Sunday:

LAD +120
HOU +100
COL -135
NYY -135
TEX +135

 

[barman]

Per my quip in my Great Game thread....being as the WAS and LAD Angles are both still in effect from yesterday's analysis, there's No Way they (the Angles) could lose two days in a row

And the Rays happen to be in the Angle that Scott first put up back in Post #1 of this here Thread

Yankees bullpen eats monkey meat and their ongoing nemesis is the LAA

Twins rake solid at Home vs LHP and Chisox playing Away After a RoadWin are slightly below .500

Cleveland enters today's game with a season record of 2-14 when playing Away After a RoadWin

I got

LAD +125
HOU -113
TB rl +123
DET rl -107

MIN -120
SEA -147
SF rl +155
LAA +129

 

[ScottL]

Fading me on the Yanks eh? Bar, the Angle on TB is for Game #2 of a Series only. There is a pretty mean stat on the Rays today as well, but the A's starter is throwing too well for me to touch this game.

NYY is 17-4 on the Road after a Road Loss by 5+ runs in which they also allowed 10+ runs since 7/05. Angels Home Series of 3+ games have seen them sweep just 20 out of the last 128. 4 of those 3+ game sweeps were vs KC.

I switched sides in LAD Series as LAD 23-4 since last year playing a team who beat them the day before.

SEA is 11-26 off a Home Win in which they allowed 3 runs or less, so I switched in that Series as well.

3 team parlay: Phillies, Giants and Red Sox $5 to win $12.65

Simply takeing the better team at home with the best pitching. I expect all three to win and get paid odds if it happens.

Seis y dos para +4.54

Less than Excited when - for the second afternoon in a row - I'm out toiling and making lawn/garden $$$ and the Rays take a midgame lead.....And then instantly give it away.

Coming into this past week, the Rays previous five weeks had seen the bullpen with an ERA Under 1.50

Good time for the AS Break

 

[punter]

Zito is a Ranger killer but a clown against The Padres. Go figure.

 

[barman]

Well I used SF (in real world wager...was half of an $11 2TP for $30)

But it can't be viewed as Muy Increible, because if we look at Giants previous week and Padres previous week, both were in desperate need of a reversal towards their median team scoring.

 

[roadreeler57]

Good thread.

MOVING INTO

THURSDAY, July 16

*The Oakland A's since beginning of last season are just 2-16 in first game Home After road when graded at -1.5

Unfortunately, their meager season to date does not set them up for significant ML fave prices and the associated Fave RL price of -150 or less (for tonight's visiting opponent LAA)

BUT if we look a bit further for a complimentary selection.....


*Philadelphia playing Game 1 Aways this season is 12-2 when graded at +1.5
Take it back through last season when they were 19-8 in this role and that's 31-10

Meanwhile, Florida so far this season in Game 1 Homes is just 3-12 when graded at -1.5
Take it back through last season when they were 8-17 in this role and that's 11-29

2TeamParlay

LAA +1.5 (-178)
PHI +1.5 (-183)

Lay 10
Pays 14.15

------------------
HOUSTON Astros in their past 70 Away games are 39-31 SU with 36 of those wins by 2+ runs

HOUSTON arl -1.5 (+210) at LAD $7

Due to my observation that often teams strangely change personalities over the all-star break, I will be on the sideline for a while.

 

[ScottL]

10-6 so far in this thread, +4.00 Units -- Sorry to be against Bar and with Brandon Lang today, but I made up my mind before viewing the forums.

CUBS -120

LAD -140

OAK -120

Too late in the day for posting stats. Spending a lot of time lately trying to chase down a stiff. If I posted his name you'd all SHIT! NOT HAPPY!

 

[ScottL]

By the way this thread title sorta sucks =)

 

[barman]

Actually used Cubs myself in overnight 2Teamer with Hou ml

but only tallied in The Great Game thread

We all have our crosses to bear Scotty. @)

 

[ScottL]

WOW Fletch! You don't even take a pause for those $uffering.
Ever have a book/agent pull up on you? Guess not!

 

[barman]

go easy.... and re-read his alteration of your Quote

Fletch was making a funny

 

[ScottL]

No biggie bar.....I got it the first time. Still not funny or appropriate. I'll let him slide because it's his rep.

Now I'll have to protect my backside because when you tell a guy who brags he will drill anything that breathes you'll 'let him slide' you'd better clench fast.
