All in all a decent day. Today I'm not writing a "lookback" summary on today's picks. Mainly because I want to save some time tonight and just jump straight in. Also, I started late writing tonight's post.
The Picks: Lets take a look...
Possible pick VfB Stuttgart W/D
I cant guarantee this one, but this seems like a good pick to me. Borussia has only won 1 out of 26 meetings. Stuttgart won lasts year by 1 and also beat them at home 7-0. I'm done, just trust me, this should be a decent pick.
Pick #1 Boston... again
Similar scenario to last time they played. Boston ranks 1st in runs, batting average, on base and slugging percentage. Mariners rank 30th in runs, batting average, on base and slugging percentage. Also, they will be at home again. Here are some pitching mix-ups. King Felix will lead the Mariners at the mound with his 3.31 ERA, 10-10 record, 174 strikeouts and 1.18 WHIP. No doubt Seattle will have a pretty good pitcher tomorrow. However Boston will start their best pitcher in Josh Beckett. His pitching is ridiculous; posting a 2.17 ERA, 9-4 record, 127 strikeouts and 0.94 Whip. You read that right folks, 2.17 ERA and 0.94 WHIP. If this isn't a good pick I dont know what is. Boston, probably the best team in the MLB (ranks wised) will have their best on the field and should be firing on all cylinders tomorrow. Even if they lose and you lose a big streak, there is not a much better way to go down.
Pick #2 Colorado Rapids W/D
Another fantastic prop. If I could choose Boston and San Jose, that would make me a happy man for sure. Unfortunately Streakmaster is going to make you choose... Here's what Colorado has on their side.
1. Colorado has a better table rank than San Jose.
2. Colorado has a better record (9 wins, 10 draws, 6 loses) vs San Jose (5 wins,10 draws, 8 loses)
3. Colorado has scored more goals this season. Colorado (37) San Jose (25)
4. Colorado has a better goal difference. Colorado (+4) San Jose (-4)
How did Colorado get the draw option? My only answer is San Jose is at home. I would go Colorado hands down.
I'll write more tomorrow. Its Friday night. I want to chill out
Im nervous about the VfB Stuttgart W/D pick
ReplyDeleteMe to honestly. I think I will change that to a "possible pick"
ReplyDeleteWhats making you guys so nervous about it? lol Any counter stats or anything that really stands out that makes you think that stuttgart will lose?
ReplyDeleteI think i'll stay away if there is some doubt in your mind, since i don't know anything about German league. Argentina looks nice, since you don't have to worry about the draw. Then i may take Colorado afterwards.
ReplyDelete229476..... whatever your name is haha. I based it mainly on past information. I dont know a lot about these teams this year. Except apparantly Stuttgart is supposed to be better and they have absolutely dominated them in the past. If you made me choose I would easily choose Stuttgart. If your feeling good about it though take it.
ReplyDeleteJames,
Yes Colorado looks like a really good pick. Not a lock, but about as good you are going to get tomorrow next to Boston in my opinion. I would be a little surprised if they lose to San Jose with all of the stats on their side. They clearly look better if you were going to base a pick on paper.
I think I will go Boston. If Felix wasn't picking it would definitely be in the top 3 for lock of the month. Even with Felix pitching I still think they pull it off.
Those are my 2 best bets for tomorrow. I've only been picking 1 or 2 games a day
I think i'll probably go Boston too. When they faced Felix in July, they did pretty well against him.
ReplyDeleteI like both of these picks as well, unfortunately we can only pick 1 of these games during the time frame, with Boston having a 10:10pm start, and Colorado having a 10:30pm start.

ReplyDeleteFuck, lost my W6 on argentina, as well as some other guy in our group. I figured after the angels lost, there couldn't be two afternoon streakbreakers. guess i was wrong :P Meh, i'll feel better if boston loses to seattle later tonite.
ReplyDeletewhat group are yall in...im looking for a solid group
ReplyDeleteneed to add some picks that go with streak survior
ReplyDeleteWhat's on your mind for Sunday?
ReplyDeleteYour info is very helpful even though Boston hurt me should of took Colorado. Thanks for your time.
ReplyDeleteI feel you man, me to. My logic was that they beat them with Lackey, so I assumed they could beat them with one of their best pitchers as well.
ReplyDeleteGood luck the rest of the way
