Couple thoughts

Little more on Kolek

The surface is fine at 4.15 ERA, so I’m not calling him a gas can. But the matchup is interesting because he does not miss many bats. His K rate is only around 16%, with a 20% whiff rate, and Tampa is a contact heavy lineup

If Tampa is putting the ball in play all night, KC has to defend, Kolek has to work, and eventually that bullpen has to get involved.

Pitch-mix wise, his slider is the real weapon, but the sinker/sweeper have been much more attackable. The sinker barely misses bats, and the sweeper has been hit

he was just activated after some time away, so there could be a little rhythm interruption. Not saying that means he gets lit up, but it is another small piece of the puzzle

You got this man. The way you skipped through all the day slate trash just shows how laser focused you are right now. Bring a broom. 

Now, if we get the traffic I expect, we’re going to be heading into that Kansas City bullpen.

And when you dig into those bullpen numbers, they’re bad.

Real bad.

Kc first 5 looks golden

The KC bullpen numbers are ugly 

Around a 5.66 ERA on the season, dead last type profile, and the recent form has been even worse with an ERA north of 11 over the last week.

Not much clean swing and miss, control issues late, and some arms already carrying workload.

If Tampa gets traffic, this is the group we want to see

I see it. KC up 4-1 and Tampa closes. Your writing the script. you can have the game, I'm taking the half.

KC sucks but even the worse win 33%......

Good Luck

 Trying to offset the mojo  TB start to finish B2A. The real question is.. Will Caminero HR? I think TB feels the separation with NY & would love to get another one tonight

Looks like a small buyback on Kansas City after lineups

Am I concerned Not really.

The handicap didn’t change. Tampa’s lineup is in, the matchup still fits, and Kansas City’s bullpen is still the group I want involved.

I got offered -120 after already liking it at -130, so I pressed it.

Because that’s who the fuck I am 

This is a big game today, i’ll be handing out bottles and bags for sure

@LVTruck

 Lol PRE$$$$ no seriously man GLGLGL!! The read is sharp. Always makes me feel a little better seeing the line go back the other way when I feel confident I am on the right play. I'll be pulling for you bro 2 day check this week due to Dr appointments last week so I don't have any action tonight myself. Honestly had a great time and good vibes the last couple nights guess it's a little different when I'm not sweating the loss personally kinda crazy to see it from that point of view .

CRU$H THEM. 

@LVTruck

 Did you press the full game only?

yes 

No worry, boogeyman

You’re definitely an action tonight

I still got two more bills until the end of the tunnel to get even until next week so as you know it would extremely appreciated. Just know you don't have to man money is super hard to come by these days so take all you can get!  I got the game pulled up.

LET$ RIDE BRO! 

Sh1ts been rough lately got diagnosed with Crons a few years back and just tried to work through it.. pay bills etc. apparently it's not smart to do that but going through the treatments and stuff now so its gonna get better. Anyways

$HOWTIME. 

No Salvy for KC..? I know you posted the lineups earlier, I didn't catch it

He is out with a sore left elbow, and Carter Jensen is catching 

@TheBoogeyman931

 Sorry to be a downer boogey. I didn't go at gainst the vibes. It LV wanted to he could have taken the F5 , HE DIDNT. HE THINKS THE FULL GAME. As I root for him for the full game I will gamble the fade on the F5, WE BOTH WILL WIN.

Your obviously emotional. You post often and most of your posts are some sad story about how you have no money. You shouldn't even think to gamble because obviously you cannot afford to lose. 

Continue to ride the sidelines and begin to save. And learn some things so when you build up a bankroll you can finally have your time. 

Or stop with the sad story posts, we all have issues one way or another and we all feed into the addiction. You seem like a good guy and this is from an outside perspective that may be wrong, but I doubt I am. 

I'm sorry you have issues...... I do as well but different than yours. Good luck

Nice. I know he's old but still a veteran presence..

I know I write a lot BS, but I did play the first five and I need them to get off to an early start.

Let’s keep it positive in here. I’ve got a lot of money on this game, and I don’t need any negative bullshit right now.

If you want to start another thread and post your stuff, please do. Thank you.

let’s keep it moving

Matter of fact, after Kansas City wins the first five, shoot me your Cash App or Venmo.

I’ll send you a good bottle of whiskey
