good day fellas....since the game is about to start, i will be brief....cubbies first 5  -1/2 +110 small is my choice for todays diamond action. i just prefer feldman over danks....thats all, no other reasons. iwill dig around to see what i can find on these night games....EVERYONE travelled last night, so..i dont know how that factors in...
feel free to leave comments and/or post anything you like today and maybe we can all benefit. for those that follow us, you know we win through group-think and ideas we bounce off each other....two brains are better than one, especially when one is a pig....good luck fellas..

i just checked the wind at wrigley.... i know feldman has been pretty good this season...danks...only 6 innings ...BUT there is a fair wind, 8-10 MPH blowing OUT...thats not much, but i have a feelin OVER 5 for the first 5 is a reasonable play....im on it...

pigskin last time I got burned on F5 U3.5 you told me it never hits. Now we have two beasts in Anibal and AJ going after each other. O3.5 is at -120, what are you thinking? Both pitchers are pretty lights out this year.

Also what about Milone vs Lincecum? That game is set 3.5 F5 and those pitchers aren't THAT great.

let me correct you....i said....when the first 5 total is set at 3 1/2, it seems to almost always go over....regardless of who is pitching... thats what i told you.... now that said, personally, im not betting U 3 1/2 first 5...even with sanchez and burnett both pitching well, i would NOT take the under...its just  2 easy to be rolling alonga pitcher walks someone, infield makes an error, and BOOM a 3 run shot and 3 runs trot across the plate, first 5 U 31/2doomed...cause usually another run has scored or will be scored... i look for 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 totals involving questionable pitchers, and those are the first 5 overs i play, that simple... considering milone and lincecum...i LOVE that over 3 1/2 and i was going to post it later, but i already have it in, and i have it parlayed with the cubs over 5 first 5, though just a small parlay...good luck buddy..

Hi, Pig....hope all went well at the doctor this morning   Highly doubt I'll be posting any plays today as there's way too many variables to accurately reason through what with a highly unusual schedule.  I'll  probably dabble but certainly don't want anybody tailing today.  Sometimes the best post is the one not posted

No, I get it. Regardless of who is pitching try to stay away from the U3.5 F5. I think I just confused you with how I worded it.

nice size parlay for me today is angels ML/blackhawks ML parlay. also pig, in regards to the SF/OAK over, giants are suffering from a flu bug widespread throughout the club house. i read reports pablo sandoval, marco scutaro, and few others were feeling the strong flu affects. i don't know if it will affect the batting signficantly but it is something to consider

 i know you asked metta...but he seems to be out of pocket.... i cant take chris capuano, and i dont want to lay the heavy juice on the angels in weaver's first start back from the DL...
my thoughts on texas... grimm is nothing special on the mound. he has allowed runs in the first inning in 4 of his first 8 starts this season...mccarthy got off to a rough start but has pitched much better lately....for the first 5, i can get the dbacks at + 115, to me thats the play...my  favorite play of the night though is SF-oakland over 3 1/2 first 5...

oliver i'm not nervous about weaver's return from the DL, he hasn't been forced into a start or rushed but the angels have been babying him and preparing him for his start by having him throw simulated games, get his arm strength ready, etc. plus i expect the angel bats to come out strong tonight vs the dodgers after losing 2 straight. also, i'm fading capuano.
