    $$$$ THREAD CONCEPT - This thread is for all of us to share our expertise with everyone else to benefit the group.

    THIS IS NOT A PICKING CONTEST!

    PLEASE make special note of this! If you have an area of expertise, please make some $$$$ choices from your area of expertise when you have a game you are confident enough in to call it a "$$$$ PLAY". The difference between a PICK and a $$$$ PLAY is that a PICK is a game you like, a $$$$ PLAY is a game that you KNOW. If you are claiming your choice is a $$$$, and you really have NO true knowledge of that game, then you are just cheating us and posting your PICK just for attention and to see your name on the board.

    RULES FOR POSTING - We will not track your $$$$ PLAY if you do not follow these rules. You are welcome to still post your PICK or card, but unless you do the things below, we won't be putting your $$$$ on the spreadsheet.

    Only one $$$$  per day and a MAXIMUM of 4 per week. 

    A week starts on Mon and ends on Sun.

    - No buying points.

    - No other "line-manipulations" like teasers, etc.

    - No parlays

    - No props

    - $$$$ PLAYS need to be -129 or lower.  Anything -130 and over, take the -1.5 goals or runs.

    - Do not try to cheat on lines. We, as a group, are all over the lines and every time someone gives a stinky spread, it is always called out. If the line is off, the $$$$ doesn't go into the spreadsheet.


    AND THE MOST IMPORTANT RULE!

    You must give an ORIGINAL explanation as to why you KNOW this $$$$ PLAY will win. And don't just "stat" us to death. Tell us about the game. DO NOT COPY YOUR WRITE-UPS! People on this thread are all over the internet and will find your plagiarism. I guarantee it. You can use Last 10, ATS, etc., numbers to support your argument, but stats from a gambling website are not an explanation.

    FOLLOW THESE RULES AND YOUR $$$$ PICK WILL GET TRACKED

    Thank you for helping keep this thread positive.  It is for the benefit of everybody, not just a place for you to blather out random picks and toot your own horn.

    Soccer Play From Rf_Dawg:

    WEDNESDAY: 

    Portuguese 2nd Division
    Feirense vs Vitoria Guimares B

    I rarely play a side in the Portuguese 2nd division as it is typically low scoring with lots of draws.  Nonetheless, on Wednesday morning we get 6th place Feirense hosting 17th place Vitoria Guimares B.

    Feirense are 11-3-5 at home while VGB post one of the worst road records in the Segunda Liga at 3-6-10, and post a -16 goal differential.
      
    Guimares hasn't won on the road in 9 games and have conceded 2+ goals in 12 out of the 19 road games.  That gives me hope that even if Feirense concede they can make it up and win the game.  

    I always like to look at the motivation factor at this point in the season.  Feirense are 6 points out of a promotion spot and will view this as a necessary 3 points. Feirense won the reverse fixture 1-0 earlier in the year and I look for them to take this one as well...something along the lines of 2-0. 

    $$$$ Pick: Feirense ML (-109)

    RULE ADJUSTMENT

    I am increasing the threshold for a $$$$ play to -150 primarily due to MLB.  

    Nothing over that will be accepted,  I will try to remember to update the rules on the first post of tomorrow's $$$$ thread.

    So narrowed down the plays I will be capping today and will hopefully have a $$$$ pick but here are the ones that survived the initial cut in no particular order:

    Blue Jays (Happ) -128
    Tigers/Marlins Under 7 EV
    Marlins (Fernandez) -150
    Dodgers (Maeda) -130
    Giants (Samardja) -133
    D'Backs (Corbin) -150

    nationals -1.5 (-125)

    Strausburg will come out and mow down this weak Braves Lineup. I think this year is the year he finally gets the run support and I see the Nats winning this game 5-1 6-2 ish. 

    Thanks!

    Hey,

    I'm doing Giants -1.5 today. Not sure what the line is yet as Bovada doesn't have it up yet. Should be around even, +115. But I agree with Beantown, Jeff finally on a good team and the Brewers are just...bad. 

    Good luck everyone!

    $$$$ Miami Marlins -140 $$$$

    I was on the other side last night with the Tigers but I have to say the Marlins impressed me a little.  Gordon has a lot of heart and this team was pretty pumped to get that game into extra innings.  Most people think that taking the L last night took the wind out of their sails but I thought they proved something to themselves and they know how to battle.  They are also younger and will bounce back a little fresher today.  The real angle here is Fernandez pitching at home where he all time is 17-0.  This kid is their ace and his stuff is good, real good!  The Tigers have some big bats and had 3 homers last night but in 47 starts Fernandez has only allowed 18 HRs. HRs were the bulk of the Tigers runs yesterday and I expect an end to that today.  Pitching for the other team is Sanchez who didn't have a big workload in Spring Training due to elbow inflammation.  When he did pitch the numbers were just okay giving up 4 runs in 9 innings.  I expect the Marlins to get enough hits off Sanchez for a win.  The Tigers bullpen was very suspect yesterday just as they had been last year.  Many figured the addition of K-Rod would help alleviate some issues but they have continued.  K-Rod has gotten older, lost some velocity, and that change up didn't look too hot either.  If this game is close late the advantage will go to the Marlins.

    I am laying off the Blue Jays today although the revenge factor is high after the umpire review loss. 

    Two other small plays for me today...

    Tigers/Marlins Under 7 EV (.1U)
    Dodgers (Maeda) -130 (.1U)

    Now come on and give me some good $$$$'s to tail!

    $$$$ Blue Jays $$$$

    So my pick lost yesterday had LA Kings in regulation but they decided to win in overtime -_- but whatever back at it again today, sort of changing it up usually I'm more of a hockey picks guy but ill back my second favourite sport today!

    After yesterdays game which ended so stupid! I'm gonna back my hometown team here, when listening to a lot of the post game reaction seems like a  lot of Jays are not happy! so I'm gonna say there gonna take that anger out on the ball today!

    Even though I'm not a big fan of Happ's return back to Toronto I think he has a lot to prove, especially after receiving that contract deal.
    The Rays just aren't scoring runs so far, and it's tough to win when you're going up against an offensive loaded team in Toronto. Theres just no way you can say no to the Blue Jays today because revenge is best served with a HR Derby today lol!

    Hello,

    For my first $$$$ PICK of the 2016 MLB season, I am going with Toronto - 125

    I like the POWER HITTING RIGHTY STACKED lineup against Matt Moore (LHP). Moore, who made 12 starts last season for the Rays was demoted to triple A, where he has ok success but had a rough time upon returning to the big leagues. Moore also posted a 11.5% HR/FB ratio last season. I expect Toronto's lineup 1-9 to do some damage and score a lot of runs.

    Side Note: Moore has a 5-2 record vs Toronto during his career, but keep in mind this is a different Toronto Blue Jays team.

    I also assume that Toronto is a little salty after losing last night to the new sliding rule.

    Toronto -125 $$$$

    Game start time: 1:10PM ET 

    Thanks for all you do Budda!

    Well not a great start to the thread with that bogus 8th inning killing the under in the HOU/NYY game but so is life sometimes. Today I'm going big on the fish.

    $$$ Marlins mL -150 $$$

    Jose Fernandez on the bump for the fish. Whats not to love about this kid. In 26 career starts @ home he is 17-0 with a 1.40 ERA and hitters only hitting .180 off him. The wind is will be blowing in from left center at around 20 mph making the lucky long ball less likely. I dont see Detroit stringing together a lot of hits against Fernandez. This isn't the case for Sanchez. Last year he went 3-6 on the road in 10 starts and had a 5.19 ERA and .277 BAA. I just feel confident in the Marlins at home in this one with their ace on the bump. Last night they battled back after getting down 5-0 early and these young hitters will be hungry to provide some run support to Jose.
