I'm on the Tigers tonight large.

Silvia has lost 8 out of the 10 past starts for the Mariners. Also is sporting a 5.5ish era.

DET are 9-4 in the last 13 meetings in Seattle.

alot of pitchers started off rocky this year. look at roy halladay guy was 8-6. Is that what he should be with his potential? No but he started off slow but you know hes capable of shutting down weak offenses just like verlander is quite capable.

I see nothing wrong with being excited about your picks. Nobody places a bet without true hopes of winning or believing it will hit; however, putting down others picks only to make you sound "better" is simply immature. Regardless, I'm on the Tigers. If it doesn't hit then Seattle backers were right and I was wrong.

It is easier to find long term winning situations with those teams than it is to find for teams like the Yankees and Red Sox, yes. The glamor teams are overpriced, and if you bet the Yankees and Red Sox every game, you will end up losing money. And that is a FACT, not an opinion,

wow you must be smoking some laced weed

just cause Verlander has struggled in the early season you are writing him off?

you are writing off someone who can throw a baseball over 100mph

ok....

those SEA backers might be a little worried that he has pitched better as of late

everyone has a opinion but if you dont have a bet on the game....what you're talking about means nothing

if anything...it makes you look like a bad beat...or a kiss of death

ironically...Ive seen a few of those around here on this forum and anywhere else that involves gambling

the real REAL sad thing about that aspect of gambling is....some....and I do say 'some' people actually get off on seeing other people lose
