MistaFlava's MLB SUNDAY ***Power Selections*** (Notes & Analysis)

[MistaFlava]

Here we go guys, been on fire lately. Love these.



DETROIT TIGERS ML -149

I know these guys have screwed me more than once this season but I am think they are going to finish off these A's road trip here. Oakland is on a disasterous, season ending, run right now and this is the final game of their East Coast trip. Believe me when I say the only thing on their minds right now is that plane ride home to Cali where they can regroup and get their shit together. Robertson is the only reason the line is so low here because the guy cant string good starts together but I think this is a great way to get back to winning ways for him against a shitty Oakland offense.

Fact of the Game: Oakland hits only .233 versus lefties on the road, Detroit hits .317 versus lefties at home.




TORONTO BLUE JAYS ML +134 ***PLAY OF THE DAY***

No doubt about it here. My hometown boys are going to be inspired by the return of Vernon Wells and they are going to pound around a lefty that has always had problems pitching here. Cliff Lee is 0-3 lifetime in six career starts versus the Jays and the Jays have won 5 of their last 6 games versus left handed pitchers. Im not a big fan of Wells but boy do they need his batting presence in this lineup and the season is pretty much on the line today. If they can't avoid the sweep, you can kiss the wildcard chances buh bye. Scott Richmond has been a victim of hard luck. Whats funny is that he was pulled off the Olympic team to be here so you can bet your bottom dollar the guys want to get him a win for missing the Olympics and joining the rotation. Cliff Lee can't dominate hitters forever and his nice little run hits a road block in this game.

Fact of the Game: Blue Jays are 9-2 in their last 11 games as a home underdog.




LOS ANGELES DODGERS ML -127

This is a trap for people who think Matt Cain is going to continue to dominate the way he has. The is a huge game for the contending Dodgers and losing this series is not an option. Manny Ramirez has brought a new pop to this offense and for the first time in years I feel comfortable backing these guys on most nights. We are talking about a San Francisco team that has won only 4 of their last 26 games as home underdogs (thats pathetic) so I don't give them much hope of winning this one. The Dodgers looked lacklustre in yesterday's 3-2 loss so expect them to bounce back here. Billingsley has owned the Giants while Cain has had all sorts of problems with the Dodgers in his career. Neither team has had much success pounding away on right handed pitchers but the door is wide open here for a Dodgers series win and they have been the better team. As a team they are firing on all cylinders (pitching and hitting) while the Giants are batting only .230 in their last 10 games and that has ruined good pitching performances.

Fact of the Game: Dodgers are 16-5 in their last 21 games in San Francisco.

What about the Day/Night Whip Report? Are you considering posting these as well?

I looked @ Yahoo and came up with these:

Washington
Boston
San Diego
NY Yankees if Pettitte starts, he may miss due to shoulder stiffness and Rasner could take his start.
LA Dodgers

I went on who had a better whip and some starters had less than 50 innings pitched, so I didn't count them.

Good Luck on your plays

Wells really changes the dynamics of this lineup and now maybe the Jays can make a run. The Jays love lefties...nuff said.

 

[powerz]

everyone has this misconception about the jays loving lefties from last couple of years this year they are hitting .243 & OBP 323

your going to need scutaro and rolen to have a big day

gl with your homies

 

[boombaby]

Wheres your whip report Mr.Flave? Look forword to the nice work!

 

[PC16]

:missingte

 

[Nolockshere]

The Jays hit .231 at home vs lefties.I would hate to see their numbers against pitchers they hate!!!!

 

[BigTime21]

Why would u put ur money up against Cliff Lee.

 

[fivestarjake]

[jackleg]

Mista I have been watching your plays over the years and im not bashing you but you play way to many trends with baseball and college football.

 

[Mr.Parlay]

Wells needs to be traded!
