Monday Discussion Thread

Thinking weekly discussion threads. Monday through Sunday.

Until I start running my mouth which for better or worse I think Is coming! I dabbled this week, I’d actually been much better off playing all bases and not the sweet 16/ekite 8, every night I had one game I love totally ruin my day after hitting practically all my mlb plays, hasn’t been a lot, maybe 5-7 games but havnt missed much, it was Theresa bday over weekend and she still hanging tough so it wasn’t easy for me to post. I’m getting the itch to talk bases with ya’ll!

Apparently the offshore doesn’t open some the pitcher prop markets as early as the US books so I can’t be posting my prop leans till A) if I know I can get number I want, and B) can’t be having some guys gobble up my numbers before I can bet them! Lol
 
I'm excited to see Jobe's first start for the Tigers. This is the official start of the Tigers season to me after facing the payroll champs to get things underway.

I thought ya’ll showed pretty well vs lad, that team is just redic and most the series I paid attention to ya’ll were hanging in until it got into the pens.
 
Interested to see singer making his reds debut, kinda like Cincy at plus money.

@B.A.R. Your guy couldn’t pick a better team or park to debut in. You have a guess on a pitch count for him and what his stuff like? I could use a scouting report :)

I wrote leans down last night to cap more today. One that hit my radar was the kc/mil ff over 4.5 but I still have to make sure I liked the reasons I wrote down! Or actually used my notes app! I think the dinosaur days of pen and notebook are finally over for me! Lol

Tigers and A’s ml both on my leans list as well. Along with some pitchers I’ll bust out later today if I get good numbers!

Oh yes good to see you Banky. Feel free to take over discussion threads when you feel up to it. I was telling BAR and HUNT that i‘d just fire up weekly or when baseball-fatigue sets in monthly discussion threads until you took over with your daily talks!

Seems odd we have day games today but none 2marro, think most of them are home openers and maybe that why? Just seems weird to have day game mon and wed but none Tuesday. It will prob be a minute before I post every day but I’ll start trying to post at least some.

Man if he can go 5 innings against Seattle you think he hit ov 4.5 k’s, too bad he isn’t left handed as it appears it doesn’t matter how many rh hitters Seattle puts in their lineup they just cannot hit lefties! Springs and Sears both did a number on them over the weekend which is same ol same ol for this Seattle squad, can’t hit for shit and it like they can’t even pick up a baseball thrown by a lefty!
 
I played A's over 71.5 win total. Think they'll be a really tough out at their AAA home yard. Liked what I saw in Seattle over the weekend.

Really looking forward to that home opener tonight.

If I played those I agree I think they could easily be right around .500.. assuming springs is the same guy before TJ that rotation is plenty solid, he looked great his 1st start, most lhp looks great vs Seattle but the stuff looked basically the same to me, lot of good young hitters, a freak closer. The Al west as a whole I think is down, as in Houston won’t be as dominant, Seattle still can’t hit lefties and the offense scares nobody, angels are the angels, Texas could have a bounce back year if the pitching stays healthy but who knows there? Every pitch degrom throws is 1 pitch closer to another injury unfortunately.

I like A’s tonight

Good stuff, we know how badly Seattle starts. This is a team that gets going in June.

I dunno if he has short leash or not. I'll do some reading. He brings the heat though!

Man I use a combo now of pad of paper and notes app. I'll never let go!

To be honest Theresa always bought me new notebooks at beginning of seasons, I hate trying to use one from last sport that all beat up and shit. One early morning I was in bed capping a little on phone and thought “ I keep forgetting shit when I come back to the game” so I opened the notes app thing and gotta say I kinda like it. I’m sure it won’t be long till I’ll miss writing it down on paper but at moment it been pretty seemless opening the notes and seeing what I was thinking earlier and can then quickly get back into capping what I was without having to start all over wasting more time. So at the moment better than nothing but I could see getting used to no paper and notebook, maybe, lol.
 
Man Peterson k number I expected a 5.5 but not sure I love things bout his 1st start and I dunno that fish are the same team who like Seattle used to be great to play lhp k props against?
 
I did play the tigers rookie over 4.5 k’s. I mean I’ll pretty much play any pitcher with a pulse to fan 5 mariners! Give me a lhp and not sure he even needs a pulse! No clue what it is but Seattle has compiled what might be the worst group of right handed bats when it comes to making contact vs lhp! I know tigers rookie right handed im just saying for future plays. I’ve already cashed both lefties k props who started against Seattle!!
 
Laa/stl ff un 4.5

We had great baseball weather over the weekend where the park played pretty fair. That not gonna be the case tonight as a cold front came thru, it gonna be chilly and breezy tonight, I don’t even care which way wind blowing the ball isn’t gonna carry at Busch tonight imo, cards have lived on timely 2 out rbi hits, that usually not something that sustains although we do always see a team who does drive in 2 out runs at a crazy clip. I was encouraged by what I saw from cards this weekend, the fact they swept is shocking to me but we all know how I feel bout twins meathead manager! Anyways if certain Cardinals stay healthy maybe they could win this god awful division. That said Anderson the kind of junk throwing vet that often gives cards issues. I trust Mikolas when they park playing big and he facing a lineup the white Sox held to 5 runs in 3 games. This has low scoring written all over it to me.,

Love it, tailing you on this one. In early season, knowing how the ball will carry in your home park is huge. First thing I do when I'm capping it look at the flag in CF at Progressive Field. BOL Banker.

need milw offense to give us some help, you would think that got a few those new bats from yanks after getting crushed for 3 games!! I like Bubic overall just thought there were indicators to fade him early in the season, might have whiffed on that as beers not doing shit! Bright side it just take a bloop and a blast!
 
Bubic is just dominating the top 3 in Milw lineup. Go to the new bats! Outside yelich nine you scrubs ever been able to barrel up a ball! Lol
 
So last year When giants turned hicks into a starter he was very good out the gates but it didn’t take real long for teams to understand to make him throw a lot of pitches, to let that power sinker go if it starts at knees or below as it moves so much he had a hard time throwing it consistently for strikes. I do think early in the year other than teams adjusting to him he was fresh, that was his 1st time starting so as the innings piled up the less effective he was. Fact is if he can throw the power sinker flor strikes he incredibly tough to barrell up (of course with these new bats I’m not 100% sure where the barrel at?!,!?!?

Im really not sure how I feel bout Houston new offense? Grabbing Walker from snakes was a nice move to help mask the loss of Bregs and Tucker, I think he might be pressing at the moment as lot more pressure than he had just playing ball in zona. I have no doubt he get it going but right now he not providing protection Yordan needs. Long way to go and I believe he will, losing 2 professional hitters to middle a lineup is rough tho. This could be a good hicks outing?

Slight lean to the Ff under but not sure I need a play, I’ve made 7 plays all season now im approaching 7 today! Lol. Prob not the best idea!
 
Of course 1st 2 bets I post lose. The obviously big mistake fading Bubic, felt kinda jerked off not cashing the Ff over in milw. Kc for 4 fast And then nobody could get a damn run for 3 innings. That baseball! I promise it get better! lol
 

How long till Acuna back? I assume profar was mostly a stop gap or insurance policy for him since he always hurt, maybe he can get some that juice from profar! Of course these guys doing it all wrong, I bet at least 20% the league still doing one form or another so If you getting caught your trainer sucks!
 
So normally I stay off these 6.5 k totals the 1st time around cause you know if pitcher gets into trouble odds they let him work deep are slim, that said if pitcher is cruising plenty of guys have went 6+ innings their 1st start. Braves ain’t exactly seeing the ball right now scoring 7 runs in 4 games vs pads, 0 runs last 2. Now they get Glastnow? I’ll roll the dice here, if his stuff is right he can punch out 7 in 5 innings way Braves swinging right now.

Glastnow ov 6.5 k’s
