Thanks for the kind words ShortBusDriver7 and eitstgss... always appreciated.
Posted at the last minute so wanted to get the plays up. This is pretty much the same story as yesterday... getting a great price on what I believe is a pitching match up in our favor.
I didn't go back and check but I believe this is the highest juiced play I've posted in this thread... It's worth it. Villanueva will be on a 60-70 pitch count limit which means we will likely see the middle of the Cubs' bullpen. Given how great Pittsburgh's pen has been this year we've got a total mismatch on our hands (and if Burnett goes deep it will most likely be because he is dominating seeing as how this is his first start coming off the DL).
Chicago White Sox Team Total Under 4 -120 risking $480 to win $400
My biggest single wager to date. 5 runs against Garza? I know the pen is tired but I still like our chances against a team that can't hit a beach ball with a tennis racket

Dr. Jimmy - Sorry that I didn't see your post in time but I passed yesterday.
Varkey - When I capped the game earlier today I decided to pass. Later, I actually ended up playing the Cubs strictly as a tail of Kevy. I figured it would be ill-advised to post the play as my own in this thread since it truly wasn't. Nonetheless, you should know that you get what you deserve when you fade your own city!! Don't hate on our Cubbies...
Forgot to update my record since my last play. I was laying in bed around 1:30am this morning when I saw Garza at +121 against an (occasionally) hittable Lance Lynn and thought "Wow, that's definitely going to be a play at that price"... then I dozed off. Of course when I woke up the line had sunk tremendously and continues to do so. Not sure if I'm going to play it anymore but I will post if I do.
Should have put my play in yesterday but for those looking for Sunday Night Baseball action, here ya go:
7/14:
Chicago Cubs/St. Louis Cardinals 1st Half (5 Innings) Under 3.5 -115 risking $230 to win $200
