MLB Friday 5/19

[Wiretowire]

YTD +1995
1-4 last
0-1 GS - So I'm headed for bed with 26 runs still allowed to easily win the GS and just two games left. Sure thing. LA/StL put up 24 runs just to prove there is no such thing as a sure thing. Shit happens. Next.

All x50 each

AZ ML -170 - Gallen just too tough.
Cinn +2 1/2 -170 - Lively a reliever starting which I hate but Schmidt beat up big in his last.
Phil ML -120 - Stroman struggling and Suarez looked just ok in his first start but -120 is a bargain for the home team against the Cubs.
Balt +2 1/2 -240 - Gibson is better than Kikuchi but I'll take those lovely +runs.
Mets ML -150 - Carrasco used to pitch for Cle. I'll bet they wish he still did.
Sea/Atl under 9 1/2 - Kind of a high total for two solid starters.
Hou ML -250 - Can't say enough bad things about Oak and who built them to what they are.
LA ML -110 - I don't think StL will score 16 against Gonsolin.
KC/CHW under 10 - Both starters solid
Miami/SF over 6 1/2 - Both starters supposed to be decent but struggling.

That reminds me, I'm not sure if this was already reported but the folks at the Tropicana in Las Vegas gave their employees notice on Wednesday because Oakland A's will be moving there and the trop is the site of the new baseball stadium in Las Vegas. GL

Grand Salami under 139 -440/+400

True totals of all games 130. They are adding 9 runs on a 15 game card and I think that's too many. GL

I live in the Bay Area Wire. It’s ashame to see this area lose teams. The opportunities to see the Yankees vs A’s or NFL teams play the Raiders here locally is now gone. Oakland is a shit hole so I understand it but it’s crazy to see Oakland with zero pro teams now. Golden State is in SF now next door to the Giants ballpark has a new beautiful venue so at least we gained that.
The historic grounds of A’s and Raiders are now gone which is a bummer.

I can’t stand the way these billionaire owners hold cities hostage to either pay for their new stadiums or they bolt. Unfortunately some city will always be willing so putting your foot down just gets you left without a team. Fuck these owners, especially assholes like the A’s who pocket revenue sharing instead of put it into the team. Dunno why anyone would build that prick a stadium.

Vegas seems to be having issues with the Tropicana site now because they want $400 million of public money

I agree Wise. It is a shame they are moving from Oakland. GL

Bank, Vegas has all the money and begging for teams in all sports. Money talks and they will get an NBA franchise to complete their set of all sports. Easy to promise to sell out all games played in Vegas as casinos can give away tons of tickets to get folks into the casinos. GL

 

[Wiretowire]

Thanks KJ. Jesus why would those guys hold up the public for money. That is shameful. GL
