2nd Half Run With The Rookieee ((( Thurs Plays )))

[THE_ROOKIEEE]

ANAHIEM ANGELS VS OAKLAND ATHLETICS

I Am Going To Start Off My 2nd Half Off With The Anahiem Angels Who Just Came Off A 3 Game Sweep Of The Yankees Where They Scored 29 Runs And Are Batting .329 Over The Last 10 Games

The Angels Have Gotten Back To Their Offense Form and this Will Be Their third time seeing Dallas Braden...they will score more than the average they have been giving Santana (3.04 Runs Per 27 Outs) One Might Wonder How Can I Risk With Our Pitcher Tonight, Ervin "omg" Santana With His 7.71 ERA With A Whip Close To 2.00...especially knowing in his Last 3 Starts He Has Givin Up 5 Dongs In 13 Innings For An Era Almost Touching 10????? So Why Then ????......

Well He Is Close On The Verge Of Losing His Job Once As Was The Case In 97 When He Had Troubles.... But He Gets A Chance To Start The 2nd Part Of The Season With 7 Days Rest Against A Team He Has Dominated Over The Years As His 9-1 Record Suggests, Including A 4-0 Mark With A 1.50 Era At Network Associates Coliseum...im Not Saying He Is In Any Sound Form By His Recent Outings But Over The Years He Is 13-3 In His Next Start Coming Off An Outing Of 90 Pitches Or Less..... Throw In The Facts The Oakland Hitters Hit A Measley .172 Against Him Lifetime Including Their Top Hitters

Giambi 1-14 .071
Suzuki 1-17 .059
Newcomers Nomar And Holliday Combined 3-11 .272
Crosby 2-20 .100
Cust 2-10 .200

AND .....

They Are In Oakland Once Again Where The Field Plays Big For Pitchers And He Hasnt Given A Homer To Any Player On This Team.... The Angels Have Won The Last 3 Games Here ......his Counterpart Dallas Braden Is Of Quality Sound But His Few Bad Games This Year Have Come Against These Angels Not To Mention He Has Lost Both Times He Has Faced These Angels This Year..... Lifetime Against These Angels He Is 1-3 Carrying A .283 Batting Average Against... With Only 3.76 Runs Of Support

I Have To Take The Value Here And Go With The Angels Outhitting Oakland In A High Scoring Game Once Again Even Though We Have A Pitcher In Suspect Form

7****** ANGELS +120
2*** OVER 8.5 -110


BREW CREW VS THE REDS

I Also Like The Cincinatti Reds And Homer Bailey To Beat Hr Champ Prince Fielder And The Brew Crew.....homer Is Starting To Show Signs Of Good Things To Come As He Has Put Together B2b Good Starts For The First Ime Since His Entry In The Bigs.... When A Young Pitcher Does This And His Strike Outs Increase You Can Be Sure That His Form Is In Solid Form... I Look For A Monster Effort From Him In His 5th Start Of The Year Against A Team That Has Lost Their Last 6 Of 7 On The Road.... I See The Reds Winning This Game Handily With Their 4.75 Run Support They Give This Kid....

7******* REDS -109
3*** REDS -1.5 +170
