I didn’t have time to deal with all these early starts, was planning on capping them last night/early morning then hitting casino while I was out running errands this morning but ended up watching a movie and passing out, slept longer than usual so no chance to cap them. Just gonna skip anything that starts before 2:30 and see if anything left worth Fuckinh with.
 
Only thing I'm in on so far is Freeland o4.5 ks -105 and same game parlay Rox+1.5/u9.5/Freeland 4+ ks +220
 
Curious to see how Greene does vs lad, I prob woulda took a shot on his over 6.5 at plus if I had time this morning.
 
Lot of potential for walks from those 2 starters, I assume the roof be open and ball should fly, couple walks could easily lead to some crooked number innings up there today.
 
Like Ray first 5 quite a bit, might have your 7 ks thru 5 also

Every time I play seattle Ff their pitcher does well but they don’t score any Fuckin runs, at least it cheap enough you really don’t gotta lay the half run, I swear every time I play that they tied after 5.
 
The last 31 innings montas has pitched vs seattle he has 50 k’s! He ain’t exactly better in day starts but his k/bb rate is way higher in day starts for some reason. What kinda ump we have in Oakland today? Could be a bunch of punch outs.

Ump is Lentz

Don't know anything about him, prolly have to look at blankets to see stats

I have him as fairly neutral, no real history with either pitcher, never called a Ray game, montas 1 a long time ago but wasn’t good. Not that I’m taking anything from sone rando start 4 years ago, lol.
 
think I’ll just stick with Ray over 6.5 k’s and not worry bout montas or seattle lineup.
 
Cueto has went 6 or more innings in 6 of 7 starts, weather seems favorable for pitchers today with slight helping wind in. Gotta think he has a pretty strong chance to go over 17.5 outs, think I prefer that to the 4.5 k’s, he could get there assuming he pitches past the 6th but think he almost has to get the innings to have a chance at the k’s so outs makes more sense to me.
 
Had to play damn 5.5 on the Ff over in milw. Not gonna lie that feels high, I was a tad iffy at 5 but not playing for pushes and I absolutely think the potential there for a few crooked numbers! Of both these Fuckinh pitchers could put guys all over the bases and get out of it forcing ground balls, lol. Still think it worth a play just little smaller.

Was pleasantly surprised price on Ray was cheaper, think I got his over 6.5 at -115.

Gonna need Freeland to pitch the 6th, think at that pitch count he should

Might do Ray ks as well as first five, wish they could be parlayed

Also, this NBA draft has my head spinning, don't think live betting is an option but so much could go on with the top 5
 
Well fuck, at least cards got 2 but there that huge inning killer double play I was worried bout. For a second there I thought cards might cash this bitch before I even left casino! That woulda been sweet! Really don’t wanna have to count on milw offense just cause I never really know wtf hudson gonna do! Lol

Stay there for the draft, if they do live betting on it that would be incredible!

I’ve never really been into betting drafts, I def think there some money to be made if ya pay enough attention and do little digging but I don’t have the patience for it.,

That one thing I love about playing the fish pitchers, they get everything they can out of starters, don’t baby them like 80% the teams do! Yesterday I still needed 1 more k from Lopez and he was at 96 pitches, only team I was pretty confident they would send him back out, not sure any other team does that!! He rewarded them by pitching the entire inning and getting my k!!

Freeland at 89 but not really doing anything with 2 strikes except throw curves and sliders

Guess I hope they let him throw the 7th but the hbp last inning, kinda doubt it.
 
Bam! K #5 for the last out in the 7th, not sure I'm healthy enough to bet him (or anyone) pitching like that again.

I can’t fairly say what I woulda done after the fact but I kinda cringed when you said he needed 5. I do like the lhp vs fish angle (a lot) but he has never had much swing and miss stuff and his velo a full tick down this season., I havnt been following that game, did they send him back out for ya?

Time to get the parlay, just need +1.5, if it somehow goes over 9.5 that ticket never deserved to cash anyway.
 
Fucking shit. Nobody has scored in milw since I left casino. I’ll say this much, if ya got live betting option I would maybe wait another inning or 2 then see bout a live under,, in another 30-40 min there gonna be a nasty shadow over the batter while pitcher be in sun. Hopefully they can get these 3 more runs before it happens! I don’t think it be a issue till bottom 5th at earliest. Here is milw chance for their crooked number inning!! 2 on no out, top of order up!

It would take one those stupid extra inning screw jobs to beat the under or your +1.5
 
Why would your best player be dead taking on 3-0 with 2 men on? By all means be super selective but if you get a meatball you should smash it! Hudson bailed him out with a walk tho!! Bases juiced, need a hit!!
 
Those shadows getting close, need these runs now! Fucjing ump gave hudson a gift on that 1st pitch of ab

Probably on him and what he wants, be glad he didn't smash into a DP

Side note: Does Counsell basically have a lifetime extension there at this point?
 
Amazing that 2 years removed from knowing these umps like they were family and now I don't recognize half of them.

He just passed the buck to the next assholes to strike out then the fucking DP ball, rather have had yelich taking a swing at a get me over meatball slider than the next dick head who couldn’t even make contact vs a guy who doesn’t fan anyone or the asshole after who pounded another sinker into ground!!

So cards hit into 1st and 3rd dp in 1st to kill inning now milw does it with bases juiced., now that Fuckinh shadow becoming a issue, needed the runs right there instead of letting him off the hook. Pretty much exactly what I feared, I knew the potential for crooked numbers be here but also new the chances of them being erased by DP’s was higher than I’d like with these 2 extreme ground ball pitchers. Think it sunk now.

There has been a lot of turnover it seems. I havnt done much of any adding to my little black ump book the last couple seasons (far as new names, still try and update notes from time to time). so there now plenty of guys I don’t even have in it!
 
man I hope he safe. I dunno why the duck milw sending guys against cards outfield. God dammit

Crazy rate of turnover for an incredible gig that pays so well for 3/4 a year basically
 
I guess I get sending him since these asshole can’t get runners home In scoring position but you can’t make 1st out of inning at home!! I was already typing “bases juiced again” next thing I know I hear tv guy saying cutch was going home, knew that was bad idea.

Bailed out with 3 run bomb!! Woot woot
 
Ball carrying like a Mfer, I didn’t think that was a bomb off the bat but just kept carrying!!!
