I liked the card on Fri and barely broke even....not enthused about today card and will try and be more selective

New York Mets* -108 vs Washington Nationals 108/100
Washington Nationals/New York Mets* Over 7 -170 170/100...this line is moving down but I will hit it here as the Mets bullpen gave it away.The Mets (32-44) and Nationals (40-39) have played six times this year. On three occasions, the Mets bullpen has pitched scoreless baseball and New York has won. In the other three games, New York's bullpen has given up multiple runs and the Mets have lost. Overall, the relievers have posted a 6.32 ERA against Washington this season.
Gee is 3-1, 2.81 in his last five starts and Jordan took 4+ years to get to AA, but he is 7-0, 0.83 in AA Eastern League this year. This is MLB debut for Nationals' #17 prospect.The 24-year-old right-hander drew plenty of attention with his 9-1 start to the minor league season. Beginning 2013 with Class A Potomac, he was quickly promoted to Double-A Harrisburg, where he was 7-0 with a 0.83 ERA. But this is the big leagues. I will take the more experienced Gee who has a 3.12 ERA in six home starts this year, versus a 6.02 ERA in nine road outings. Gee is 5-1 with a 2.70 ERA in eight career starts against Washington. Gee has fared well against Washington, going 5-1 with a 2.70 ERA.

Atlanta Braves* -145 vs Arizona Diamondbacks 145/100
Atlanta Braves* -1 -101 vs Arizona Diamondbacks 101/100
Arizona Diamondbacks/Atlanta Braves* Over 7 -120 120/100Arizona Diamondbacks/Atlanta Braves* Over 6 -190 190/100
yall know I'm a Braves fan so I want bore U with any lengthy writeups...let me just say that Atlanta's 2.44 home ERA not only leads the majors this season, it is on pace to be the lowest home ERA by the Braves since the franchise moved to Atlanta. The last time the team posted a lower home ERA was in 1958 (2.30), when it was still the Milwaukee Braves. Yes I know Kennedy is 0-0, 2.19 in his last two starts and Kennedy owns a 2.84 ERA in four career starts versus Atlanta with wins in each of the last two, including a 5-3 victory on May 15. He yielded three runs and struck out seven in five innings. Discussion if wanted.

Colorado Rockies* -107 vs San Francisco Giants 107/100
San Francisco Giants/Colorado Rockies* Under 9½ -115 78/50De La Rosa (8-4, 3.19) had also struggled to get run support recently until a 7-6 win at Washington on Sunday. The left-hander has a 2.74 ERA in his last seven starts but had gotten zero runs in each of his previous two. He will get enough to win today Giants lost seven of their last eight games. Colorado lost three of last four.And for u ump lovers,which I'm not, 12 of last 14 Davidson games went over the total.The struggling San Francisco Giants are just not playing very good ball at present, especially on the rd

San Diego Padres* -1 +110 vs Miami Marlins 100/110 ...I'm certainly not the best capp in the world put plaese give me the liberty of being pissed about Fri Mia loss that I completely mis-capped!! San Diego continues to have Miami's number.The Padres will make it five wins in as many games against the Marlins in 2013 on Saturday night.San Diego (40-40) has dominated the season series on the strength of its pitching, posting a 0.75 ERA while holding Miami to a .205 batting average. Turner is 1-0, 2.25 in five starts this season. Stults is 4-1, 1.70 in his last eight starts. This is just a pissed off play for me!! No total for me

 

[The Capping Genius]

I originally like the Mets today myself but after looking at this rookie (Jordan) starting I decided to play the Nats. The rookie seems to be some phenom from the minors and has a huge strikout/walk ratio. Also, it seems that first time pitchers are doing well. Most batters need to go a few times against hard throwers to get in a groove against a pitcher they have never seen before.
Since the Mets also struggle offensively, I decided to go against Gee as he has been going long innings (over 100 pitches in 3 of last 4 starts) and when he failed to go that far in his last start he was beaten by the Phillies.FWIW
Gl today on the plays.

Pittsburgh Pirates* -177 vs Milwaukee Brewers 177/100
Pittsburgh Pirates* -1 -145 vs Milwaukee Brewers 145/100
Milwaukee Brewers/Pittsburgh Pirates* Over 7 -156 ... up to -205 now,I played this one last nite and will most likely be on the Pirates every game until they give me a reason not to be. Liriano is 3-2, 2.27 in his last five starts. Hand threw 4.2 scoreless innings in only start (52 PT) but he is mainly used in relief, allowing six runs in 19 IP overall this year and since May 1, the Brewers are just 5-19 against NL Central opponents, getting outscored 122-85 in these contests.Pirates won their last seven games, scoring 49 runs.So I dont see any reason not to lay the heavy juice today.

Philadelphia Phillies* -108 vs Los Angeles Dodgers 54/50
Philadelphia Phillies/Los Angeles Dodgers* Under 7½ -175 88/50...I'm a big Lee fan and this game should be a goodun as a pair of stellar left-handers meet for the first time.Lee has won his last seven decisions for the Phillies, who will get their first look at impressive Dodgers rookie Hyun-Jin Ryu.Lee (9-2, 2.51 ERA) was working on a six-hit shutout Monday before he failed to retire the two batters he saw in the ninth inning and was charged with two runs as closer Jonathan Papelbon blew a save in a 4-3, 10-inning loss at San Diego.He has still gone 7-0 with a 2.00 ERA in 10 starts since losing at Cleveland on May 1. His 0.95 ERA against the Dodgers (36-43) is his second-best against any club, and he's 2-1 in five starts against them.Lee faces rookie sensation Yasiel Puig for the first time. Puig is hitting .424 in June to lead the majors.Lee has fared well against Matt Kemp (1 for 13) and Andre Ethier (0 for 8) while Adrian Gonzalez (9 for 16) and Hanley Ramirez (5 for 10) have caused him problems.

BlueJays/RedSox N/P as I have a series play on the Jays but the Red Sox have won 6 of 10 meetings vs. the Blue Jays in 2013, with six of those games being played in Toronto. Dating to July 20 last season, Toronto is 8-1 at Fenway Park. Toronto (39-40) has lost four of five while batting .187, but could take some encouragement after coming from five runs down to briefly tie Friday's game. Go Jays

Cleveland Indians* -110 vs Chicago White Sox 110/100
Cleveland Indians/Chicago White Sox* Over 9 +105 50/50....not sure what to expect from these two teams after last yesterday but Jimenez is 2-0, 2.25 in his last three starts and Axelrod is 0-0, 9.20 in his last three starts. Cleveland is the hot team winning eight of its last eleven games while White Sox are 4-7 in their last eleven games. Cleveland and Chicago combined to allow 46 runs and 59 hits in Friday's doubleheader, which lasted 7 hours and 53 minutes, an MLB record for a two-game set that didn't feature extra innings....so what happens to the pens today, dont know but my experience says the Over should hit even with tired batters

Minnesota Twins* -110 vs Kansas City Royals 55/50
Kansas City Royals/Minnesota Twins* Under 9 -120 120/100 this line is dropping like a rock with Gibson is 7-5, 3.01 in 15 AAA starts this year (Twins' #4 prospect) starting but I still like what I see in the Twins and their pen

 

[bloodhound]

Houston Astros* +2½ -220 vs Los Angeles Angels 220/100
Los Angeles Angels/Houston Astros* Under 9 -110 55/50 I know most cappers cant touch a line like this but with but I cant back LAA with Blanton is 0-3, 4.50 in his last five starts. At least the Stros are giving us a decent SP with Lyles who is 3-1, 3.02 in his last seven starts. Hate to go against the Angels who won their last five road games, scoring 33 runs but as u can see I bought some insurance here. As far as the total, more a feeling than anything else. and just a fyi, The Astros are hitting .216 (167/774) this month and since the designated hitter was introduced in 1973, no American League team has posted a lower batting average in the month of June (1981 excluded -- season started in June). Bottom line, Houston is a bad team. Houston committed two errors Friday and have been charged with 11 over the last eight games, pushing the club's major league-leading total to 63.
Damn, I hope +2.5 is enough LOL

Wise, U know I like to talk college football. We may even have some football fans in this MLB forum
U are correct about the O Line being something to watch, especially early on. There are only two returning linemen with Steen and Kouandjio but they will provide enough foundation for newcomers around them to gain some experience quickly.While this year’s unit can’t come close to the dominance that Bama had in 2012I dont believe there are enough holes to sink the ship.
Health will play a factor in 2013, as it does on any team. Last years unit started all 14 games which is unheard of in modern football. Center Barrett Jones played the majority of the SEC Championship Game with a bum foot, but that was the only major injury Bama’s front five was faced with all season. I hope for similar luck for for this year’s unit.

Replacing Jones, Fluker and Warmack, now all NFL linemen, would seem to be a hindrance to this Bama team. However, this could still be a strength of the 2013 team with leadership from Steen and Kouandjio.Making sure your backfield is safe while stopping giant men exploding off the snap and driving into the backfield requires more than a good benchpress max. Doing so with no holding penalties, no false starts and no other mental miscues is quite a feat.An U know Saban hates penalties and will have this new line ready.

Tack on Steen’s five years of experience and you’re wishing you had 4 clones of this guy blocking for you. Though he has played a more silent role in the midst of four sure-fire future NFL linemen, Steen’s leadership alongside newcomer Ryan Kelly looks to be a major plus for Bama’s front five.

The only other returning starter from last season to the offensive line position is left tackle Cyrus Kouandjio, and with a healthy season, this will likely be Kouandjio’s last wearing Crimson. The Maryland native should end up as one of the NFL’s top prospects in the 2014 NFL Draft.
Cyrus’ brother will likely flank him this season. Arie Kouandjio has persevered through a career haunted by injury. Working his way into the contenders to the starting line up for 2013, Arie has impressed due to his ability to play right tackle or either guard positions. Look for the eldest Kouandjio to be a cornerstone of the Tide’s 2013 offense.
Center Ryan Kelly has been named to the Rimington Trophy’s watch list for 2013, likely more by association and projected prominence within the Tide program than anything else. Kelly played in 10 games last year was named an All-SEC Freshman.
Probable starting five looks to be Cyrus K. at left tackle, Arie K. at left guard, Kelly at center, Steen at right guard and Austin Shepard or Brandon Greene at the right tackle spot. Whoever the starting five ends up being, they’ll be charged with the task of protecting an arsenal of offensive firepower. Speaking of bets, if this group gels together anywhere close to the effectiveness of the 2011 and 2012 units, barring no injuries with the rest of the team, Bama will once again be tuff
What do U think Wise?

 

[wiseplayer]

T.J Yeldon is what I think! Lol. I think we have a Heismann candidate as a sophomore. I have yet to look at the replacements yet but without looking I have to believe its just a refill of great talent for Saban. Thanks for the early cfb chat!

 

[bloodhound]

I can't seem to get SD/Mia or Hos/LLA /side or total right no matter which way I go with, so unless yall see a clear cut winner today, they are out of the picture for me :angry2:

Everything else went pretty much as expected

12-6-2 +3.54 series plays for the wk have gone 5-0 +5 with Cards and Twins outstanding ...UP 292.33ytd
