Ohhh! You Got Your Ass Kicked

Los Angeles @ Baltimore
The Pick: LA Angels +105

Yeah, I'm sure whoever set this line ended looking at again this morning and ask "fuck, we done did fucked". The LA Angels opened last night at +115 at some books, and in most books +108. still line movement and data indicates that 66% of people are on the Angels side of things, take the moneyline in hopes that Orioles have another struggling day, and won't even come close to winning the series. LA doesn't just have the good lines in their favor, they've got a few more good things too; three-time All-Star and No. 3 hitter Torii Hunter will be back today to power-up the offense on LA's side, not like the Angels have been playing like they need any help scoring runs. Hunter who has been batting .305 with 17 homers and 65 RBIs in 77 games will add just a little more juice to an already very dangroud batting lineup. The Angels didn't even miss a beat, winning 23 of 32 after Hunter went on the DL. In those 32 games, they batted .311, averaged 6.8 runs and swatted 46 homers. Batting is no secret, but with no good pitching it's useless as we see with Washington, and well, maybe even The Orioles. Sean O'Sullivan (3-1, 5.12 ERA) looks to rebound from his worst start of the season when he faces the Orioles for the second time. The rookie was roughed up for six runs and six hits over 4 2/3 innings but escaped without a decision Monday in the Angels' 8-7 win over Tampa Bay. O'Sullivan has allowed 10 runs in his last two starts after yielding 12 in his first five major league outings... Oopps! look buddy, next time just don't get wasted before the games, I mean shit happens you know? but just because you've been fairly decent, and you have one fuck up day doesn't mean you'll be terrible every day.. Good pitchers are consistent ones, not crazy ones. Oh, and one more note, consistence in winning... not licking fat donkey ass... With losses in four straight starts and tied for the AL lead in defeats, Jeremy Guthrie (7-12, 5.43) hopes to reverse his fortunes when he takes the mound for the Orioles. Since pitching eight strong innings in a win over the Chicago White Sox on July 19, the right-hander is 0-4 with a 6.75 ERA in four starts. He's given up five of his league-worst 27 home runs during that span.. yeah those stats are as bad a licking donkey ass... consistently.. Kinda like every time you go to a Denny's at 4am, there's always some over-weight bitch with a bad attitude wondering why you didn't tip her. Consistency. No one leaves a Denny's and says "dude, too bad she's working the graveyard shift I'd really like to take her home and fuck her while choking her...(girls are kinky like that) anyway...Guthrie struggled again in his most recent outing, allowing five runs and a season-high 11 hits over 4 2/3 innings of a 9-1 loss to Oakland on Monday. He is 1-2 with a 3.60 ERA in four career starts against the Angels, pitching at least seven innings each time. Guthrie is going to struggle again today, with Baltimore not being able to keep up with LA's Offensive power. O'Sullivan, although only 21 and inconsistent at times takes the halos for another win, and then they will party all night and go to Denny's... you know how it is.

New York Yankees @ Seattle
The Pick: New York Yankees 1.5

The Yankees are winners, and everyone knows it, and quite frankly, they actually deserve it, unlike the Dodgers.Today, Chamberlain will make his regular turn in the rotation Sunday when the surging Yankees attempt to sweep a four-game series from the Seattle Mariners at Safeco Field.The Yankees (74-43) own the best record in baseball and are pulling away in the division race, holding a season-high 7 1/2-game advantage on second-place Boston. So, with that much of a lead the Yanks were hoping to rest Chamberlain (8-2, 3.85 ERA) until visiting Oakland on Wednesday in an effort to preserve the 23-year-old's arm following a pair of shaky starts. The fiery right-hander is 1-0 while allowing eight runs and 11 hits with nine walks in 11 innings over his last two starts after going 4-0 with a 3.05 ERA in his previous seven. Still he is kicking ass regardless of his recent problems. New York, though, has seen six of its last seven games decided by three runs or less, causing manager Joe Girardi to use his bullpen extensively and turn to his rising star earlier than he'd hoped. Most of you would read this and say "well what the fuck, why runline" well that's exactly the thinking. Chamberlain is on a different level than the previous three starters, and well both last night, and the night before, the Yankees win have been semi-close, but today I expect Chamberlain to do a excellent job, and shutting down this already helpless seattle offense. I really think the Yanks break away in this one. They want as much leway as they can get.The Yankees could use a strong effort from him as they attempt to complete a sweep of the Mariners (60-57) after Saturday's 5-2 victory. Derek Jeter has been on a tear of late, hitting .478 with three homers and five RBIs over the last six games after getting two hits with one leaving Safeco and two RBIs on Saturday. That offensive surge has him tied with Omar Vizquel for second on the career list with 2,672 hits as a shortstop. The Yankees captain is one behind Luis Aparicio for the top spot. The Mariners have lost four of five, getting outscored 23-7 and batting .209 with one homer. They showed some improvement at the plate Saturday, getting 10 hits to equal their total from the first two games of this series. Seattle will give the ball to rookie Doug Fister (0-0, 0.00), who is making his second start after allowing one hit in six innings before leaving to a standing ovation in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to Chicago... this however an't Chicago. This is the team that leads the MLB. Let's see how consistent the Triple-Aer is

BOL I chose not to mess with this game as Seattle is due, it is hard to sweep a home team and the yanks have diahrea from eating too much Ivar's clam chowder.

If I were forced to bet I would be on the yanks though. They are an all-star team.

lets gt em

you seem to be beating the chalk and plays alot of these days,, nice run,,  whats your up/down unit  count thou?

kirbyZhang been following your work buddy, my question is how do you come up with this brilliant research. whats the first thing you will say is most important in handicapping in your opinion everyone has different thoughts on that question. thanks buddy it up!!!!

kirbyZhang FOR PRESIDENT

Well to answer your question there isn't exactly one thing that I look it, it's a combination of things. Handicapping is I talent, it's about taking the data and assessing what it tells you, and making a decision about it. I truly believe that it is a talent. anyhow hope this helps.
