ok lets get this cracking again up in this bitch...honestly i dont really got nothing 100% solid yet..some leans and a few totals i really like but hate totals w/o knowing umps...just wanna get the discussion going and see if we can have a repeat performance...
Oak-112? really? i know this be popular as shit and i actually like this kid Beaven for sea, hell how can you not respect a kid that held his own against bos and tex? But lets be real besides the fact A's bats are hot this about Cahill vs sea pathetic offense, which he has owned pretty much everyone except Ichiro.
I guess the biggest problem is can we overlook how bad oak is on the road?
Call me crazy but if we get a decent ump in Bos i would be real tempted to play this under, figure it gonna go up tho and i need a solid ump for sure so i can wait just putting it out there. I know Lackey is beyond garbage most gms but even with his sickening whip he has limited some weaker offenses from scoring a lot of runs lately and no disrepct to cle but like i said yesterday it doesnt take cy young to keep these guys from lighting up the scoreboard. Tomlin has had a few bad road starts in tough places and it doesnt get much tougher than Fenway, he did shut Bos down at 1st of year but cant really go off that as Bos was not the team we know now so im in no way suggesting he is gonna shut these guys down. But i do think he is capable of at least slowing these guys down and i trust cle pen a little more than cws atm.
like i said i gotta have a good ump to even consider this as it even feels crazy as i type it
d-bags +122 seems really tempting to me even tho im not a fan of going against Cain or frisco at home for that matter, but if there was a time i think it may be now when zona is in pretty good form and G-men havnt really got their offense together since the beltran deal. Im sure that only a matter of time but is Kennedy the guy to be the one you all a sudden figure it out against? Huff is the only sf player that has had any kind of success against kennedy in their careers but that has been mostly singles with one jack. Not a whole lot of success against Cain for zona either, Upton has solid numberrs as does Nady, hopefully this isnt the time not having drew starts to hurt. Under 6 also seems like a solid play.....
None of this is set in stone guys im just putting some thoughts out there to get the ball rolling....Hopefully we can get some good discussion going and try and figure this shit out...
