2021 HOT STOVE

'27, '37, '47, and '57. Ruth, DiMaggio, Mantle. Then Mickey retired and nothing has been the same since. 

I feel safe with the A's at 9-0 Good night

The Pirates cut Todd Frazier today. The fact that this guy is even still getting looked at is a very sad commentary on the current availability of talent in “Major League Baseball”. Good God....

Man do I miss the dog and under parlay in all sports. It used to hit a lot back in the day. 

@undermysac

 An example today might be Alcantara/Flaherty. Lots of pitching and K's, no offense. From 6.5 and up I could play an under in a regular season game. 

@KeyElement

 Marlins are at +120, the total is 9, under +100.

Something is up with Flaherty this spring, only way it goes over is if he gets pummeled.

I like both plays, like the Marlins side more

oh yeah I was saying that yesterday literally how bad he is and how he still even plays 

used to be awesome 

but age getting to him time to give it up and hand up the mit

MLB ST: 28-22-7 / +15.00U

Yesterday 3/26 graded:

MIN  -135   3U           -4.05U

OAK +135   3U +4.05U

1-1 +0.00U

Maeda 4.0IP 3 hits, no BB, 4 SO no earned runs.  Happ fucked me, pitched too many innings (3.2) lets up 6 runs on 10 hits... but that's why they call it ST - nothing but a big scrimmage/practice and let that bum throw grapefruit after grapefruit because the game don't matter.

Regular season I'd have laid -160 and easily won.

Spring Training 2021 [ 19-21-3 / +143 Units / RoR 3.6%]

3/27

Blue Jays -115

Marlins +145

Comment: Looking cautiously for a shutdown point now. Saturday may be OK, but Sunday is questionable, and Monday is definitely out. Time to complete projections and make a few wild azz guesses regarding season win totals and be ready for Thursday. MLB is back. Yee-Haw  

3/27

Putting the Malachi on MIA, sorry this whole board is or will be on them. Maybe they'll import Happ from MIN to pitch the last 5 innings now that I took them

MIA +145 3U

BOL

Jeg and Sac what's the call in the tourney today?

Tons of aces going today with low lines.  What could go wrong 

If I jump on Miami you guys can blame me 

The line is beyond stupid. Miami's lineup came out and the line went from +120 to +155. Now +150. And the Cards lineup isn't out. What secret weapons have they been holding out?

And Flaherty needs to pull an Aaron Nola today, but that was vs the Yankees. Yes the mighty Yankees hit rhp worse than the Marlins, much worse.

Julio Tehran? 

Bauer with a nice 3 spot in the 1st 

@KeyElement

 I did own the rights to The Allman Bros Song post, but since you wrote an acceptable response I can refrain from bringing in the high price Lawyers to deal with your transgression, so MY TEAM  is letting you off the hook this time, ALSO your using that phase which is also mine, just a couple warnings to let you know they are not being un-noticed my fair weather friend.                                                

He gave up 3 hr's in the 5th inning of his last outing

As if the line couldn't get any more fishy, the Marlins are using a DH, the Cardinals are not.

@undermysac

 right but that was after 4 stellar innings......he was prolly messing around in that 5th.....I didn't take too much stock in it 

@JEG53

 See you in court
