Thursday Discussion Thread


they should still be in the meeting if they discussing everything wrong with their asses!! to me they been one the most disappointing teams this year, white sox certainly have a case as well but they always overrated, i thought tigers could be close to a .500 team who would have lot of value, instead they right there with A's and O's as one the worst teams in AL. A's sold off all their guys and O's stinking is a given. Tigers were buyers this offseason, the offense has just been so freakin bad, it a really ugly sight looking at the numbers, any given day they liable to have 4-5 in lineup that at or below the mendoza line, other than miggy old ass i think every other player is under performing. Torkleson hasnt been as advertised at all! meadows hasnt been good (i forget who they gave up for him but something tells me tampa ripped them off as tampa usually does!), schoops been a shell., im sure im forgetting others.
 
this should be a winnable series for the tigers and i like hearing they had a meeting cause i think they match up ok w PereZ and as i said while fading him last game i dont think he gonna continue pitching nearly as well he did the 1st 2 months. Brieske overal numbers nothing to be excited about but his last 2 starts he shut the jays out for 5+ innings and went 6 strong against yanks only allowing 2 runs, if he can handle those lineups you would think he should be able to keep it going vs a not very potent rangers lineup, +135 a pretty decent price to play them and see if the meeting did any good. it warm in det and the wind blowing out, perez hr/fb rate is redic low, there no way that holds up. looking at tigers lineup you wouldnt think they be as horrible they been vs lhp all season! these dudes seriously have a grand total of 5 jacks vs lhp all year, the next closest team has double that!! I just cant believe that can possibly keep up, so we have a pitcher who sporting a way lower hr/fb rate than sustainable and a team that cant possibly be this bad, after all they were 20th in total home runs vs lefties last year. obviously this is baseball so could both things keep going? of course, but at some point the damn gonna break on both tigers ineptitude and Perez's fortune.

Doesn't matter because our Godfather will be there. So Tigers are a lock

On the other hand, I'm going against my Red Sox today and taking the A's
 
Will be watching for the Nationals lineup. If no Juan Soto, that will be a play for me.

you would think phils should smack Corbin around a bit and wheeler has been fantastic for better part the last 2 months. i think they fucked up with his k prop at 5.5 again!
 
should be a heck of a pitchers duel in seattle tonight. both those offenses are struggling mightily and both these pitchers capable of dominating. pick your poison far as how ya attack it. you could look at k or out props for either pitcher, i lean to kirby ov 5.5 k's with the way halo's been fanning this month i think they will struggle to hit his stuff. nothing wrong with Ohtani k prop either, 6.5 with minimal juice isnt to big a ask for him. 1st 5 under 3.5 seems like a no brainer to me. where the hell the runs gonna come from if these pitchers are on?
 
Didn’t like the day games so everything tonight:

Wheeler ov 5.5 k’s
Sevi ov 6.5 k’s
Gilbert ov 5,5 k’s

Tigers ml
Seattle ml
Laa/sea Ff un 3.5
 
The A's third baseman seriously just did that? Routine ground ball to end the inning/game and he airmailed it
 
Going to my first MLB game in 3 years.
You live in a 4 sport city, so it gets taken for granted(not saying you personally).

Any reason for the layoff?

That’s one thing here I really wish we had. Have to retractable roof it in this heat for sure if we had a team but I’m always jealous of you all with ballparks close.

Traffic, parking and the works (and construction) makes what was once awesome a pain in the ass anymore

Reserve going to games anymore when visitors are in town and want the experience

Obvious transplant city so when teams are doing well there's more excitement here, should be better shortly once we have a full generation or two that have grown up as Cardinals/Dbacks (and eventually Coyotes) fans. Suns have at least been here since '69 I think.

Kinda surprised NO never gets kicked around as a potential MLB place, guessing most everyone there are Braves fans

I think you're forgetting he's in Detroit
 
One thing I do love about the DC ballpark is that the Metro let’s you off two blocks away. I also went to school and lived in New Orleans. If I had a magic wand, I’d put a ballpark right up against the riverbank, in walking distance to the hotels, restaurants and the casino. I bet they’d do terrific attendance.
 
You know if they still getting daily test or he have symptoms?
Pretty sure it's still daily

Was supposed to meet my uncle during his layover today and he couldn't fly due to Covid so they rebooked for Tuesday, I haven't even traveled since the pandemic so wasn't aware that was a thing
 
Pretty sure if you have your DK account online you can do a nice 3 team same gamer w/Kirby k's, SEA ML and under for a decent payout

I know when my brother went on vacation to Mexico they had to have negative test before they could come back into country, didn’t know you had to text for domestic tho.
 
I’m on all 3 separate anyways. Well Ff under instead of full gm.
Yeah it's why I brought up the same game parlay, all 3 hit...not sure if you can do Ff but even full game is reasonable. Pays +330 if they all hit and that's without any boosts that might be out there

They don’t let you do FF. I don’t have any problem w full game under tho.
 
I ended up using tigers +1.5 in RR, have the ml straight but was kinda surprised how cheap the rl was, I like getting that 1.5 runs if it less than -130.
 
6+ ks for Kirby is -165, bump it to 7+ it's +110 and that parlay goes to +425. Rather use the 6+ for the 95 cent difference on the parlay really when the difference on the extra k is already 75 cents
 
Yeah I get ML +105, u7.5 -125 and Kirby 6+ ks at +330, not a bad way to play it if you see the game correctly

Seattle the only part I don’t feel real great bout. I thought plus anything was a decent bet but felt like a coin flip to me. The +1.5 be nice to have here but I’m sure it kills the odds as it prob in the -200 range. Actually just looked, -155 ain’t bad. Kinda wish I would have took the RL in the RR they in.

Pretty sure I got him over 5.5 (which is same thing as 6) around -125. Those things go up pretty quick once they get hit tho. 7 is a lot, he could fan that many if he goes deep but he not a big time strikeout pitcher.,
 
Need 2 ks from Wheeler in the 4th

He's racking up a lot of pitches with 2 strike counts but not finishing

Played him w/Tigs +1.5

Yea he getting 2 strikes pretty quick on most everyone, he should prob have another 1-2. Only at 46 pitches tho, he outta be able to pitch into the 7th.
 
Played the Phillies live at 2-0 and that seems good. I know the A’s and Royals are bad, but the Nats are the worst team I’ve personally watched.

My concern in blowouts is an early hook. Shouldn't happen in June but there are a lot of things that shouldn't happen but still do.

I don’t think there any chance he goes less than 6 innings. Maybe they don’t push him past 6 but I can’t see them anxious to put the pen in!
