Ted..thanks for the reply a couple of days ago. You're a class act and a good capper. About the Cardinal run line...I'm crossing my fingers for you and it'll probably work out fine with Zag-Nut pitching for the Cubs. Only thing I'd worry about with the run line is that 28% of the Cardinal wins at home have been by 1 run. I realize that it's redundant to say again but...better than 1 of every 4 home have been 1-runners. Honestly, I think they win by 3 today but thought I'd add that just for a little extra to consider if you haven't already pulled the trigger.

Thank you and it was my pleasure. If you have any other questions, always feel free to ask and I will do my best to provide you an answer. Appreciate you providing this kind of information, not only for me, but our member, poster and viewing body. This is what makes the RX so special IMHO. Posters that freely provide information for others to consider. Here's wishing you the very best of luck both today and in the future! :toast:

Can't do it Kevy! Really feel the Padres have a big edge in this one today. Yesterday was a toss up going in, but in this one, Bumgarner is still young and learning how to ptich. I'll be watching and rooting for the Giants for sure but just can't wager on them in this spot. Best of luck to the Giants today. Oh and you too! @):mad:

The runline kinda scares me cause carpenter's recent starts vs the cubs were all by 1 run if you look below and the cubs also lead the league in 1 run games just throwing that out there

Never, never, never make a wager that you are not comfortable with. Just pass. There is always the next play. Only make a play when you are confident! Best of luck whatever you decide to do! :toast:

Nice card Ted. The Mets always scare me. But I can see where the phils have not scored any runs. Maybe the Under might be the play for me. BOL

Glad you like the card! As for the Mets, they faced Halladay in his last start in Philadelphia and he went 7 innings, gave up 9 hits, 5 earned runs, 0 home runs, walked 1, struckout 10 while throwing 111 pitches. He has appeared tired to me starting just before the all-star break. Misch, a left hander, comes in from Buffalo (AAA) having an 11-4 record in 23 starts, a 3.23 ERA in 150.2 IP, giving up 150 hits, 54 earned runs, 11 home runs, 25 walks, 99 strikeouts and a 1.15 WHIP. The way this depleted Phillie line-up is unable to score runs, you might just have something there on the Under. Best of luck whatever you decide my friend! :toast:

id be flattered if i am somewhat responsible for
a) calling your attention to the mets here
b) my handicapping and analysis of the way these 2 teams are going sent u in this direction

either way, i have consulted your thread many a time to see your reasoning, to either keep me from making a mistake, or to confirm what i thought......or perhaps open my eyes to something i didnt know......id like to think you sometimes feel the same bout me....lol

Zeke:

I have to be honest with you and don't mean to hurt your feelings as you know I completely respect your ability to handicap. That being said, I have a routine I go through when I handicap and never even look at the forum until I have completed my work. I do check out your thread after I post and was happy to see that we agreed on the Mets and for very similiar reasons if you read my comments in this thread. Hopefully, we will both cash a nice sweet ticket here. (<)<

Congratulations on cashing the Under! Cubs and Mets both beat me today! I'll be fortunate if I can go 1-3 today. Tomorrow is another day. At least the Giants won today and have Lincecum going tomorrow! @):)
