RED SOX(Rodriguez) -128 over Yankees(Nova)(Win 4-3.........Jackie Bradley 3-3.......Betts and Ortiz HRs)
RED SOX(Rodriguez) -1.5(+155) over Yankees(Nova)------The Yankees committed serious war crimes in Atlanta;  they ran up the score and killed a fan..........Honestly,  I think they just cost themselves a chance at the postseason and I want them annihilated in this game.(Lose 4-3........Jean Machi in the 9th:  Hit,  BB to A-Rod,  BB to McCann,  BB to Headley to walk in a run.........I couldn't even watch)

PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES(Eickhoff) +190 over New York Mets(Colon)-----Phillies have the Team Revenge and Eickhoff has the Pitcher Revenge against the Mets.............Eickhoff:  only 2 BB in 12 innings so far(of course,  Colon doesn't walk people either).   Phillies have Freddy !!!!!(Lose 3-1.........good start by Eickhoff wasted)

Saturday, August 29, 2015

MILWAUKEE BREWERS(Garza) -137 over Cincinnati Reds(Sampson)(Lose 12-9)
MILWAUKEE BREWERS(Garza) -1.5(+150) over Cincinnati Reds(Sampson)----Sampson.....has had 5 total starts,  allowing a .297 average.  Garza,  not having had a good season at all,  being a little harder to hit,  having a chance to punish Cin in Milwaukee.............Slender Man.........Jeff Dahmer........the blood of Payton Leutner...........make it big.(Lose 12-9......Even after Garza puked out 6 runs in the first 2 innings,  the Brewers STILL----mirabile dictu-----had a chance to win this game.  Brewers were ahead 9-8 in the 9th inning!   Francisco Rodriguez had a chance for the save;  he blew it and lost the game on Votto's HR..........What slime is the city of Milwaukee.......this city of garbage...........is gonna NEED Slender Man for any chance of salvation..........just filth...........what a despicable city..........)

MINNESOTA TWINS(Pelfrey) +110 over Houston Astros(Fiers)-----Pelfrey has allowed a .290 average against,  so he's probably not gonna pitch a no-hitter like Fiers did last start.   But........Edwin Encarnacion went 3-5 with 3HR and 9RBIs in a 15-1 beatdown on the Detroit Tigers,  just today,  as CNN was airing a report FROM the bankrupt eyesore motor-city.   So the Twins are really a must play,  since they have Eddie Rosario,  Eduardo Escobar and Eduardo Nunez.(Lose 4-1.........The Twins' bullpen actually shut 'em down after Pelfrey barfed up all those runs by the 4th inning.  But they couldn't hit Fiers.   SWEET SWAN OF AVON-dale.............So unfortunate the Twins couldn't win for me.........
  http://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/southwest-valley/breaking/2015/08/31/police-details-emerge-avondale-double-murder/71460800/
(The Avondale mother accused of murdering her twin toddlers Sunday told investigators that she drowned her sons because she wanted to spare them a life of being bullied, newly released police reports say.)............)

CLEVELAND INDIANS(Kluber) -155 over La Angels(Richards)-----Kluber does have the Pitcher Revenge against the Angels who rocked him last meeting.  And Kluber...........doesn't get rocked that often.(Win 8-3............Grand Slam by Yan Gomes.........Michael Brantley 3-4........Chisenhall 2-3..........Carlos Santana 2-4..........Bryan Shaw gets the Win while Joe Smith gives up 5ER while getting nobody out to take the L for the Angels.)

Friday, August 28, 2015

BOSTON RED SOX(Owens) +190 over New York Mets(Harvey)-----The Mets have gone 9 9 6 16 5 14 14.........they've basically averaged an unheard of 10 Runs/game over their last 7 games.   And you have to look back quite a ways to see a time when Harvey's been rocked.   So........there is some significant "Notional risk" in this bet.  But............OWEN Labrie is free!!!!  He's not guilty.....!!!!   Bitch wuz lying!!!!!    Yeeeeahhh,  Owens.(Win 6-4.........Blake Swihart with the inside-the-park-HR late to pull the Sox ahead;  Ortiz and Bradley both had 2H and an HR.........a bizarre scene in the 7th when,  after Robbie Ross is taken out,  Alexi Ogando----who I didn't even know Boston had-----walks 3 batters,  the last walk walking in a run to tie the game.  But it becomes more surreal when Junichi Tazawa is allowed, with no one up in the bullpen,  to get 2 outs and then walk 4 batters in a row,  putting in another run.   I couldn't watch the end.)

CHICAGO CUBS(Hammel) +200 over La Dodgers(Kershaw)(Lose 4-1)
Cubs(Hammel) vs Dodgers(Kershaw) UNDER 6(+110)--------Cubs have actually won 3 more games than the Dodgers have.   Did you know that?  True, Kershaw hasn't been rocked in a while.......but Rizzo and Fowler DO hit lhps.  And how is Kershaw still so effective?  I'll try to watch this.(Win 4-1........yea I guess he's got a slurve as well as the big curveball.)

Reds(Iglesias) vs Brewers(Jungmann) UNDER 7.5(-120)-----Reds do have the Team Revenge against Jungmann but,  all in all,  he's been effective.............and we know the Reds' offense is a fucking joke.(Win 5-0...........only 3H and 3BB allowed by Jungmann)

Thursday, August 27, 2015

MIAMI MARLINS(Nicolino) +190 over Pittsburgh Pirates(Cole)------Pirates have offensive advantages in batting average(.261/.254),  Runs(535/471) and walks(339/309) over Miami and they are as many games over .500(about 26) as the Marlins are under .500.  So,  ok;  the line's right.  But with Justin Verlander taking a no-hitter to the 9th yesterday while Justin Upton had 2HR for the Padres,  we'll go for Nicolino;  he did well for us last time............if the rest of the Marlins want to screw up the game like they did last time,  that's on them.(Lose 2-1........fuck this;  great opportunity to get a win in Miami,  great performance by Nicolino again..........but Miami can't fucking hit.  Well,  its time to get Wet,  Miami;  we got a 'cane coming for you.)

MARINERS(Elias) +120 over White Sox(Rodon)-----Rodon just beat Seattle so Mariners have the Team Revenge here.   Cruz is very good at hitting lhp's..........hopefully the rest of Seattle can take some walks;  Rodon walks 1 ever 2innings.  Good scoring by Mariners over last 4 games.(Lose 4-2........Brad Miller 0-4,  Mike Zunino 0-3...........Mark Trumbo 1-4, 5LOB..........Ketel Marte 0-4.........for White Sox Adam Eaton went 3-3 with 3R)

MINNESOTA TWINS(Milone) +135 over Tampa Bay Rays(Smyly)-----Twins on a 6 game winning streak.........Smyly..........recently beat us..........we'll try to beat him again.(Lose 5-4.........Game-Losing Passed Ball by Kurt Suzuki)

Wednesday, August 26, 2015

PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES(Eickhoff) +134 over New York Mets(Colon)----Mets in 1st place..........but.......Colon has become quite hittable.  Eickhoff has 1 good start---his only start.  Colon..........seems to be the color of this morning's shooter,  Vester Flanagan,  ummm.........seems to be a case,  well,  evil;  anti-employer-revenge...........dark jealousy.   We'll see if Alison really made racial comments.(Lose 9-4............Yup,  she sure as hell did.   Colon was.........really declining, to the point that hitters were hitting .291 off him.  Colon gave up only 5 hits in 7inn and 0 runs in this game.  He hasn't done that well for his last 9 starts,  since July 1st.   So it was definitely a justified hit.....on the CBS affiliate,  on racist America.......certainly due to the US military's execution of a British citizen in Syria----a totally illegal extrajudicial murder.   America..........and the US Military.....are EVIL!   That's just how it is.  I keep telling them to stop it.  Quit.  Cut it out.  But they just keep killing,  Obama.........killing.  CIA-killing.   THEY KNOW the result of their actions will be ISIS-inspired attacks IN America, ON America.   And they keep doing it............And the goddamn media never says SHIT about it.)

Tuesday, August 25, 2015

MINNESOTA TWINS(Santana) +135 over Tampa Bay Rays(Karns)-------Tampa has the better pitcher in this matchup(altho Santana has only had 9 starts this season).   But Twins are on a 4-game win streak while Tampa...........has scored more than 2 runs in only 1 of its last 6 games.(Win 11-7.........Santana sure got rocked but........Eddie Rosario 2-5,  HR........Dozier and Sano HRs.......Torii Hunter 2-5.........Eduardo Escobar 2-4,   Byron Buxton 2-4..........Win for JR Graham)

COLORADO ROCKIES(Bettis) +106 over Atlanta Braves(Foltynewicz)----------Bettis hasn't pitched since July 18th;  so he's on the comeback.  Rockies have lost their last 4(they faced the Mets who were.......rampaging) and must be sick of losing.   Bettis is ok,  maybe not the best of pitchers,  but look at Foltynewicz:  He's been rocked by the Cubs,  Arizona,  Giants,  Mets and Padres just within his last 10 starts.(Win 5-1..........DJ LeMahieu 3-4............3 Errors by Adonis Garcia to create 4 unearned runs)

Sunday, August 23, 2015

BLUE JAYS(Dickey) -110 over Angels(Richards)-----Dickey used to get rocked,  but he's only got rocked in about 2 of his last 15 starts.   I know,  the Blue Jays won big yesterday.   But the Angels are just not scoring lately;  they deserve to be bet against for that.(Win 12-5......Edwin Encarnacion 4-4,  HR.........Bautista and Pillar both 3-5)

White Sox(Danks) vs Mariners(Walker) OVER 7.5(-110)------Statistically,  these are weak offenses.  For Seattle,  Cruz has hit .370 vs lhps and Cano has hit .255.  So that's kind of a split.   But these pitchers,  while they occasionally have a good game,  I don't care for;  their stuff isn't really that good and never has been.   It's Sunday,  a day game...........yeah,  this one's going Over.(Win 8-6............HRs by LaRoche,  Abreu and Cano.............Austin Jackson 2-4)

CINCINNATI REDS(Iglesias) -110 over Arizona Diamondbacks(Anderson)-----Iglesias got rocked a couple times and then did very well.   Anderson has been rocked in 3 of his last 4 starts yet has shut down the Reds during that span.   So,  Reds do have the Team Revenge against Anderson.  And Reds are at home.(Lose 4-0...........Iglesias had 13Ks and only allowed 3 hits..........Reds suck at offense.  Arizona somehow got 3 DPs.   Total,  pathetic failure by Reds hitters.)

TAMPA BAY RAYS(Odorizzi) -122 over Oakland A's(Graveman)-----Technically,  the A's have scored 40 more runs than Tampa this year.   While there's nothing very effective about Graveman,  and Odorizzi never seems to pitch past the 6th inning,  the A's are a wretched,  miserable team that couldn't score more than 1 run on 10 hits for Chris Bassitt when I bet on him;  the A's are a losing team and today,  should lose.(Lose 8-2............Steve Geltz takes the L and the BS for Tampa.   Graveman dominates.  How do you not hit Graveman?  Has Graveman ever done as well as he did in this game?)

Saturday, August 22, 2015

LA DODGERS(Greinke) -122 over Houston Astros(Kazmir)------You don't need too much of an excuse to bet Greinke this year at this kind of price.   This game is at Houston.  Dodgers..........not bad vs lhps.   Scott Kazmir's former team got revenge on him last start(Tampa)........so we'll see if this is good or not ........ http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2015/08/20/donald_trump_boston_immigrant_attack_beaten_homeless_hispanic_man_should.html
(Police said Scott Leader, 38, told them it was OK to assault the man because he was Hispanic and homeless.
“Donald Trump was right, all these illegals need to be deported,” he allegedly told the police.)(Lose 3-1........I bet on one of THE BEST pitchers in baseball on one of the BEST teams............and I lose to Scott Kazmir whose team got ONLY 3 HITS FOR HIM and no walks.   Guess its time to clean up the streets----if you SEE something or someone who looks illegal,  then SAY something because Scott Leader's actions have just been endorsed;  these illegals have to go.   There MUST be pogroms on illegals.   I bet against this with THE BEST pitcher on one of the BEST teams...........and I lost.  If the Obama administration doesn't get its act together soon,  its pogrom-time.   Illegals are a plague on this country:  https://www.radioislam.org/historia/hitler/mkampf/pdf/ger.pdf

in dieses fremde Gesicht starrte und forschend Zug um Zug

erste Frage zu einer anderen Frage:
Ist dies auch ein Deutscher? )............)

MIAMI MARLINS(Nicolino) -125 over Philadelphia Phillies(Harang)----Obviously,  the Phillies disgraced BCLI 2 days ago,  so we have the Personal Revenge against the team.  They do have a few guys like Ruf who have hit lhps this year.   But Harang............rarely does anything by get rocked and,  with AJ Pollock coming off his 2nd 4-5 day after yesterday,  I'll go with the double-O, L with Nicolino.(Lose 4-2.........With 2 Phillies out in the 8th inning,  Miami was winning 2-0.  Then,  in his 3rd MLB at-bat,  Darnell Sweeney hit an HR.  AJ Ramos gave up 2ER and 3H to lose the game for Miami.   Absolutely sick that the Marlins could destroy Jerome Williams----with my money on him---and also get ONLY 3 FUCKING HITS in this game(and 5BB).   Nicolino did fine;  but Marlins were dominated by Harang.)

WHITE SOX(Rodon) over Mariners(Nuno) parlayed with PIRATES(Cole) over Giants(Leake) parlayed with INDIANS(Salazar) over Yankees(Severino) (+570)------Pirates have that Korean,  who should be strong with that war about to start..........Can you believe the Giants just snatched Leake up like that?  Rodon's walked 1 every 2 inning this year.  Not good, but we'll take him.  Should have taken Indians yesterday.(Lose 6-2............When does Salazar get rocked like this?  4ER in 4inn........when's the last time that happened?)

TEXAS RANGERS(Gallardo) -118 over Detroit Tigers(Wolf)-----Randy Wolf.   Hmm.  Hasn't been around for a while.   I guess the Tigers think Texas can't hit Lhps.   Ok,  Choo has hit .187 vs lhps.  Fielder is weaker,  at .264 vs lhps.  Hamilton has hit .229 vs lhps.   There's some truth to that.   But Wolf hasn't held opposing batters below .300 for some time and Tigers...............have lost for me,  seemingly so many times this year,  haven't they?  (Win 5-3)

Friday, August 21, 2015

OAKLAND A's(Bassitt) -106 over Tampa Bay Rays(Smyly)-----A's have a problem with winning,  but Chris Archer won with a CGSHO 1-hitter yesterday and..........Chris Bassitt could continue doing well,  and maybe even win.(Lose 2-1...........Bassitt allows 1ER in 6...........A's still lose..............because they SUCK.)

BRAVES(Miller) +170 over Cubs(Hendricks)------Braves might suck,  but Hendricks just hasn't shown the domination that would justify his price here.(Lose 5-3..........Braves have a 3-1 in the 5th and a 3-2 lead in the 6th..........then blow it.   2 Unearned runs charged to Miller due to an Error by Pedro Ciriaco.)

Thursday, August 20, 2015

BALTIMORE ORIOLES(Gonzalez) -1.5(+135) over Twins(Duffy)-----Only 2 starts for Duffy----1 good and 1 rocked.   Gonzalez isn't real reliable,  but look at Kris Bryant going 4-4 w/HR yesterday while Khris Davis had 2HR and 5RBI for the Brewers.   Well,  Orioles have Chris Davis.(Lose 15-2........Miguel Gonzalez allows 7ER in 5inn and that is THE WORST start for him this year.  THE WORST.   He's beaten before too,  when I've bet against him.   Now,  he fucks up this bad when I support him.   I've had it with guy,  I'll have him deported back to Guadalajara as an illegal.   15-2?  Oh,  you're gonna run up the score on me,  motherfucker?  Do you know who you're fucking dealing with?  Fuck the Twins...... ...........http://www.philly.com/philly/news/new_jersey/20150822_Twin_brothers_found_shot_to_death_in_Camden.html
(It wasn't until another resident drove by, around 7:30 a.m., that someone realized the men - 26-year-old twins - were dead.

The discovery of Markice and Maurice Harper stunned residents in Camden's Fairview neighborhood, where friends and neighbors said the twins grew up)..........)

ANGELS(Tropeano) -120 over White Sox(Quintana)------Nick Castellanos 2HR going 4-5 yesterday for Tigers while Nick Markakis went 3-3...........gotta take Nick Tropeano.(Lose 8-2..........Tropeano falls apart in the 5th.   CJ Cron 0-4 6LOB.   Angels' offense fucking sucks.)

PHILLIES(Williams) +127 over Marlins(Hand)-------Williams is coming off 3 good starts after his ERA peaked at 6.36.(Lose 9-7...........Jerome Williams allows 8ER 8H and 4BB in 1 2/3innings.  On June 16th,  Williams lasted 2/3 of an inning and allowed 6ER.   But he has NEVER allowed 8ER in a game this year until this one,  when I bet on him.   FUCK THIS GODDAMN BULLSHIT.  And Miami is a weak as hell offense!  What the fuck?)

COLORADO ROCKIES(Flande) +180 over Washington Nationals(Scherzer)----------Oh,  Rockies have Nick Hundley.(Win 3-2..........Flande 2-3...........Reyes 3-4...........GWRBI Ben Paulsen)

Saturday, August 15, 2015

CHICAGO WHITE SOX(Quintana) +112 over Chicago Cubs(Arrieta)------I'll make it a priority to finish One Hundred Years of Solitude if I can win this.(Lose 6-3............Shit;  bet so much on this)

WASHINGTON NATIONALS(Gonzalez) -105 over San Francisco Giants(Peavy)----Peavy's ok.........but not for pitching late into games.   We'll try the Lhp against Crawford and Belt,  the core of this Giants offense,  who don't bat right.(Lose 12-6.............Absolutely no excuse for Gonzalez getting rocked and Washington losing for me.   No excuse.   Washington blows up like this for me,  Washington's gonna blow up........

PHILLIES(Williams) +155 over Brewers(Nelson)------Utley's back,  batting leadoff!(Lose 4-2.........Awwww,  they had a 2-0 lead,  Utley hit an HR...............How could this happen?   Fucking 0-3 today-----time for some ISIS....
  http://www.cnn.com/2015/08/19/middleeast/egypt-explosion/
(ISIS claimed responsibility for a car bomb attack that wounded at least 29 people in Cairo early Thursday, saying it was retribution for the execution of six men in May.)........)

Friday, August 14, 2015

TEXAS RANGERS(Perez) +100 over Tampa Bay Rays(Karns)----Clearly,  Karns is the better pitcher here and he is from Arlington,  where this game is.  Longoria,  also,  for TB,  hits lhps pretty well.   However,  Rangers have the Team Revenge against Karns for a May 8th beat he put on them.  And look at what Billy Hamilton did last night: 4-4, HR !  Rangers have Josh Hamilton so we'll go with that.(Win 5-3..........Josh Hamilton HR + GWSF.........Delino DeShields HR)

ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS(Ray) -120 over Atlanta Braves(Teheran)-----Ray has gone 5 starts without a win...........Arizona has scored 6,  13,  13 runs over their last 3 games---while going 2-1-----so yeah,  I'm gonna play this.(Lose 3-2............I have a big problem with this team now:  Arizona has Goldschmidt hitting .340.  Pollock .312.  Inciarte and Peralta at .300.  ..........And when I bet on them, FUCKING NOTHING.  They don't fucking hit for me.   This was not a good game for Ray,  who walked 4 and gave 6 hits in 4innings,  throwing only 45 strikes in 83 pitches.  But still.........Arizona's run production for me has been horrible-----only needed 4 to win this game.)

METS(Colon) -113 over Pirates(Happ)------Let's see if the Mets are good enough for post-season.  Colon is not the best Mets pitcher,  but Mets are at home.   Pitt's gonna try the lhp Happ,  because Duda and Granderson bat left(Duda actually hits lhps well).  Pirates are 20 games over .500,  surely making them one of the best teams I'd think.  Batters hit .289 off Colon but he walks only 1 every 9 innings.(Lose 3-2.............Shocking how well both SPs got along in this game.   Cespedes 3-5 w/HR.  Mets did get their hits----10 hits I think.   And its Bobby Parnell with the Loss,  in a 0inn 3H, 2ER performance.   Mets not ready for prime time.)

Wednesday, August 12, 2015

MINNESOTA TWINS(Pelfrey) -115 over Texas Rangers(Martinez)(Win 11-1)
MINNESOTA TWINS(Pelfrey) -1.5(+170) over Texas Rangers(Martinez)-----Both pitchers are highly beatable.  Pelfrey's case is more interesting as he is coming off a rocking,  so he has the revenge against that.  He also has the Pitcher Revenge against the Rangers because.........they rocked him last time.   Michael Lorenzen did get rocked yesterday,  but there were some other Mikes who did good:  Michael Brantley,  for instance,  went 3-6 with the GWRBI,  Mike Moustakas went 2-4 w/HR,  Michael Cuddyer went 2-4 and Miguel Sano went 2-3.  Also,  Aaron Hill went 3-5 w/HR for Arizona and the Twins have Aaron Hicks.(Win 11-1........Aaron Hicks 4-5 HR.  Miguel Sano 3-3 with 2HR,  6RBI and a BB)

Tuesday, August 11, 2015

SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS(Bumgarner) -140 over Houston Astros(Kazmir)(Win 3-1..........CG by Madison Bumgarner.........2HR by Brandon Belt)
ATLANTA BRAVES(Perez) +170 over Tampa Bay Rays(Ramirez)-----Williams Perez has allowed a BA against of .277 and walked 1 every 2 innings in his first year.  Clearly,  that's not very good and not nearly as good as Ramirez.   But the Braves do have Adonis Garcia and Avisail Garcia had 2HR yesterday for CWS.(Lose 2-0...........Excellent game by Perez who pitched an 8inn CG.   Braves outhit Tampa 6-4, still lose)

Sunday, August 09, 2015

COLORADO ROCKIES(Flande) +260 over Washington Nationals(Scherzer)------Nats 5 games over .500.........Rockies 16 games under .500.........ok.  So its +260.   But Flande's numbers aren't bad.(Win 6-4.........Gotta hand it to Rockies bullpen:  They took their time,  always seeming as if they were about to blow the game.   But Betancourt,  Axford,  Logan and Tommy Kahnle ended up giving 0ER and 3BB in 4inn.   Carlos Gonzalez 2HR,  DJ LeMahieu PHGWRBI.   Somehow Nolan Arenado had 3 errros in this game.)

CINCINNATI REDS(Desclafani) +125 over Arizona Diamondbacks(Corbin)----Both teams lost for me last time I bet on them........for some reason I'm more disappointed in Arizona.  With Jose Ramirez going 3-5 for the Indians yesterday and Jose Abreu hitting 2HR for the White Sox,  I'm wondering if Joey Votto would be helped by that.   Granderson had 2HR yesterday so I'm comfortable with Brandon Phillips being on the Reds.(Lose 4-3.............Peralta doesn't go 5-5 when I bet on him.)

DETROIT TIGERS(Verlander) -138 over Boston Red Sox(Owens)-----------Ok...(this line just moved a lot).......I realize that Verlander is completely unreliable and not even a good pitcher anymore and,  though the Tigers have great offensive talent,  they're not much of a winning team without Cabrera.   But..............Owens?  Henry Owens?(Lose 7-2...............Jackie Bradley,  a .148 hitter,  has 5RBI against me in this game.  Verlander doesn't allow an ER,  but Tigers are done;  I'm sick of their losing me money.)

CLEVELAND INDIANS(Kluber) -1.5(+135) over Minnesota Twins(Hughes)----------all right;  Indians scored 17 yesterday;  if they're still in hit-mode,  Hughes should oblige----he just won't walk you.(Win 8-1.........Chris Johnson 4-4.........Michael Brantley 3-5..........Jose Ramirez 2-5.......HR Abraham Almonte.   CG 3-hitter by Corey Kluber.)

KANSAS CITY ROYALS(Duffy) -120 over Chicago White Sox(Quintana)-------I don't know if it means that Quintana will get rocked today,  But Santana did get destroyed yesterday in Cleveland.   That Delino Deshields went 3-6 yesterday should mean that Danny Duffy will at least do well,  if not dominate.   Cain does hit pretty well vs lhp's.(Win 5-4..........Kelvin Herrera gets the W;  Duffy only went 3 ineffective innings.)

Friday, August 07, 2015

ATLANTA BRAVES(Teheran) +142 over  Miami Marlins(Fernandez)---People think Fernandez is so good;  but let's see how good he is after Fernando Rodriguez allowed 2ER to blow a save and cost the A's the game last night.(Win 6-3............Markakis 3-4)

Wednesday, August 05, 2015

CINCINNATI REDS(Holmberg) +150 over St Louis Cardinals(Martinez)-----Reds are 8 games under .500 and Cardinals are 28 games over .500.  So.........we're fighting an uphill struggle here.  But,  we have the home field and Holmberg got good run support in his last start.(Lose 4-3......JJ Hoover gives up the game-tying HR to Matt Carpenter to the blow the fucking save.   Holmberg did well for 5inn,  allowing only 2H,  but 3BB and 2ER.  Reds outhit Cardinals 7-6..........so this is really bad fucking luck, isn't it?  Dylan Axelrod took the L.   GWHR Randal Grichuk.  Seth Maness W.)

MINNESOTA(Duffey) +170 over Toronto(Hutchison)------Hutchison is 9-2 but hittable.  Minnesota's offense hasn't produced too many runs in the last few games.  But Matt Duffy was 4-5 yesterday and Danny Duffy got the win at Detroit,  going 7inn and allowing only 1 run.  Seems an auspicious order for Tyler Duffey's MLB debut.(Lose 9-7..........Twins out hit them 10-8........but Duffey just sucks,  I guess.   Makes no sense.   Join ISIS.)

SEATTLE MARINERS(Walker) -115 over Colorado Rockies(Rusin)------Mariners won big last night and,  while some people might take that as a reason to go against them today,  Walker pitched a CG 1-hitter in his last start;  overall,  Walker's numbers for the season are good.........Rusin,  of course,  highly beatable.  So, yeah,  I'm gonna play this.(Lose 7-5............Its always fucking Fernando Rodney,  isn't it?  How many games has he blown for me in his career?  It ALWAYS seem to be him.   Why the fuck is that?  In 1/3 of an inning Rodney gives up 2BB and 2Hits and blows the save.   JOIN ISIS )

Sunday, August 02, 2015

PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES(Morgan) +103 over Atlanta Braves(Teheran)-----Phillies are,  of course,  still in last place.   But they've scored pretty well lately,  going 12, 9, 4, 2, 3, 11,  5, 5 for scoring in their last 8 games.(Lose 6-2..........wishful thinking)

ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS(Ray) +137 over Houston Astros(Mchugh)--------Astros still 13 games above .500.  I get the feeling they don't like to lose for us.  But I don't know why.  Mchugh is an incredible 12-5 while actually having been rather hittable.   Arizona on the road here.(Lose 4-1.........I would have preferred to win with Ray here.........http://www.tennessean.com/story/news/crime/2015/08/05/dispatcher-active-shooter-reported-antioch-theater/31171021/
(Vincente Montano walked into a theater at Antioch’s Carmike Hickory 8 just after 1 p.m. Wednesday. Seven other people were in the theater to see “Mad Max.”)
Oh,  Antioch.   That's right down there next door to where Ray's from in Brentwood.  Ray didn't do that bad but.............no support by the absolutely pathetic hitting Arizona Diamondbacks.   Mchugh should NOT be shutting them down for 7inn.   You have to FUCKING SUCK to not score on Mchugh.   Well,  'Mad Max' is a Warner Brothers movie and Warner Brothers owes me $1 Billion for my role in creating Harry Potter.   And the WB hasn't paid.   They are stubborn.  They are fucking greedy.   And they are ingrates.   The worst,  most hated corporation of all time.  Disgusting.  Filthy.  I hate Warner Brothers so fucking much.   Good movie,  though,  Mad Max.)

NEW YORK METS(Syndergaard) -121 over Washington Nationals(Zimmerman)------Nationals couldn't score enough for us last night so..........I'll go against them here.   The Mets' offense is.......well,  look at this:  Duda hits 2HR for the Mets last night and...........the Mets' score 3 total runs in the game.  Duda hits 3HRs for the Mets on July 29th and.........the Mets score 3 total runs in that game.   Well,  they're a weak offense.  But with Syndergaard having shown solid,  consistent effectiveness,  and with Brandon Belt having hit 2HR last night(along with,  yes,  6 other players who also hit 2HR in MLB yesterday),  we'll count on Granderson generating some offense today.(Win 5-2.......I see Anthony Rendon wanted to ruin this for us,  going 3-4 w/HR.   As if I deserve to go 0-3.  FUCK YOU,  I deserve to go 3-0.)

WASHINGTON NATIONALS(Ross) +135 over New York Mets(Degrom)(Lose 3-2..........Lucas Duda 3-3 2HR---what the fuck is that?)
Nationals(Ross) vs Mets(Degrom) UNDER 6.5(+100)--------In 5 starts,  Ross has allowed a .223 average against while walking only 1 every 10 innings.  Degrom has pitched a lot more and allowed a .196 average against.  So.............two good pitchers.  But,  with the Nationals having the Team Revenge against Degrom,  and with Ian Kennedy winning yesterday while Ian Kinsler went 4-5 for the Tigers,  we'll see the Nationals having Ian Desmond and bet them.(Win 3-2)

ROCKIES(De La Rosa) +165 over Cardinals(Lynn)-----Did you know the Cardinals were 29 games over .500?  That's a pretty unsustainable win rate even for the best teams.......at least the Rockies have Reyes now,  right?  While Lynn often does pretty well,   the Rockies have scored 7 or more runs in 4 of their last 6 games;  they got shut out yesterday but they can certainly hit well on any given day.(Win 6-2............Nolan Arenado 2-5, HR........Charlie Blackmon 2-4..........Ben Paulsen 2-5, HR)
