Gl terps Im on the other side

I base that upon the good chance that Bonds will be out of the lineup - but interestingly he is only 5 for 27 (.185) vs. Thomson with 2 homers.

"Thomson has allowed just two earned runs in his past 14 innings, and two earned runs or less in six of his past seven starts. The right-hander has struggled against the Giants, going 1-7 with a 5.17 ERA in 13 career appearances (12 starts) against them."

I saw that after I looked at his career stats vs SF and laughed


Tucker Snow and Cruz have done well against him going a combined 19 for 62 (about .306) with 4 homers and 10 walks

Other than that (and bonds who is 5 for 27) the only other person currently on SF who has faced him more than 4 times is A.J. Pierzynski who is 1 for 7 (.143).


"1-7 with a 5.17 ERA in 13 career appearances"

Sort of a misleading stat wouldn't you say? - Its not wrong but there could have been some context given-

Here's why I think so:
He is 1-4 in 5 appearances at PacBell/SBC...

(none as a member of the Braves [OR as a member of the rangers last year - http://www.sportsline.com/mlb/players/player/gamelogs/2003/8130])


...therefore he is 0-3 at other parks (either Colorado or Shea Stadium) vs SF. That is what the 1-7 breaks down to. Not particularly informative if you ask me.



I dont fault you for liking SF - I just wanted to be sure you had the facts.

I do wish you luck though and look forward to yer response.

-2 is +171 (at pinny)- not bad for a home dog with a better pitcher on the mound

FWIW only 7 of their 18 wins this month were decided by 2 or more

If looking for payout I would have gone with the -1.5 (+120 at bodog)


I need a win though not a big payout

If bonds does start though I cant imagine him not getting to Thomson despite the good record he has vs bonds it has been over a year since he has faced him - I am awaiting these lineups on the edge of my seat

Line on SF keeps getting better since they released lineup with Bonds out. Keep in mind Atlanta's lineup is without some regular starters, including Giles and Chipper (got slightly dinged the other night).

With an average pitcher I make be concerned, but Lowry has been lights out and in pitchers park facing Atalanta for first time I'd take the dog line.

One concern is if Tucker and Ledee will heep their horrid hitting, or do they break out against a pitcher they've done well in the past?

Dog line at +160 too good here. Might get better right before game time.

"Lowry has been lights out"

in lowry's last 3 games combined he has given up 19 hits, 13 runs, 2 homers, 6 walks, and to his credit 17 strikeouts,

but with an ERA of 7.16 over those three I can hardly justify the comment that he "has been lights out"

Thomson however you could make the case that he has been "lights out"

over his last 3 he has given up 15 hits and 10 runs - but only 6 of those runs were earned - and his ERA over the period is 3.0.

Not bad is it?
