Source Willingham Plans To Retire After Season - RealGM Wiretap  
Josh Willingham insists that he hasn't made a decision on his future scarpe basket kobe bambino , but a source says he'll retire after the season.
 
 
The veteran outfielder has told people close to him that he is "100 percent retiring" once this season ends.
 
 
Willingham, one of just three players in Minnesota Twins history to hit at least 35 home runs in a season, disputed that version in a text message.
 
 
"I haven't made a decision yet and don't know what I'm going to do," Willingham wrote.
 
Royals Find Giants Infield Dirt Extra Wet - RealGM Wiretap  
 
When it comes to the Kansas City running game, Royals manager Ned Yost thinks the Giants' grounds crew are being sticks in the mud.
 
 
The area around first base appeared to be a bit mucky for Game 3 of the World Series on Friday night. The Royals appeared to conclude the dirt was hosed down with extra vigor.
 
 
"Maybe the groundskeeper just was looking at all the Royals fans up in the corner there and just forgot," Yost said Saturday. "I thought it was a little extra wet around first. When Moose (Mike Moustakas) or somebody got on -- it might have been Moose -- and he dove back into first base and he came up extremely muddy, I thought that it was a little damper than normal, yeah."
 
 
Giants manager Bruce Bochy claimed not to notice any unusual dampening.
 
锘? The final score in any professional sports game never tells the whole story. Your job as a bettor is to get a full sense of what a team?s character is like, and that is something that can never be summed up in the scores that you see scrolling along the bottom of your television. In addition to reading game recaps and watching a team play, the following statistics are important to look for when gauging whether a team is a worthy investment: 1. Momentum ? Once a team gets on a roll, do they keep it going? Conversely, if a team gets scored against scarpe basket nike kobe , will they get flustered and be scored against a few times in a row before the bleeding stops? Or will they buckle down and look for an equalizer immediately? For the NBA, most news sources do a good job of mentioning significant gamechanging runs by each team in their game recaps. Although points are easy to come by in basketball, giving up a game-changing 20-0 run, for instance, can be a huge morale breaker for a team and can put them in an insurmountable hole. Be careful of teams that get in the habit of having to crawl out of such holes to win games. 2. How points are scored ? Scoring summaries and game recaps should give you an idea of how a team puts points on the board. Don?t think for a minute that all points are equal-just because points count for the same values does not mean that the implications are the same for the serious sports bettor. This is particularly evident in baseball. Before someone bets on a starting pitcher, he should be familiar with how runs have been scored against that pitcher. If a pitcher is credited with one earned run against him in an inning, he may have thrown well and struck out three batters, but left one bad pitch up over the plate and given up a home run. Compare this pitcher with another pitcher credited with one earned run, but who gave up a long double, walked someone, gave up another single to load the bases, and hit a batter to bring in the run. While the two pitchers have the same number of runs against scarpe lebron bambino , it?s clear who the smarter one to wager on is. In football, look at whether a team prefers to run the ball or throw the ball, and compare these numbers with their upcoming opponents? defense against the run and the pass. If you find you?ve got a great running team against a team that defends well against passes but is weak on the ground, for instance, you may consider making a wager. 3. When points are scored ? Often the final score doesn?t give one team full credit over the other. By tracking score changes throughout the game, you can get a sense of whether the outcome of the game was ever really in question. How many times have you heard the expressions ?this game was closer than the final score indicated? or ?don?t let the final score fool you; (team x) wasn?t ever really threatened in this one?? This is what you have to be careful to watch out for. If two football teams engage in a hard- fought, back-and- forth battle, and one team ekes out a gritty three-point win on a last second field goal, it says a lot more about the character of both teams than if the game is a blowout, one team has held a comfortable tenpoint cushion and has been playing reserves for the whole second half, and the losing team happens to close the gap to three on a last-minute touchdown. In the second instance, the final score gives the losing team more credit than they are due scarpe basket nike lebron , and you should by no means assume that they will ever be within such a slim margin of other good teams. Look at when in the games teams like to score points. Is one basketball team known for their ability to ?turn it on? in the fourth quarter? Does another team rely on a big first half and then hope that the cushion is enough to outlast their opponents and win? A key stat that should be emphasized is how teams fare late in the game. Entering the fourth quarter down by 15, most basketball teams will buckle and call it a night. Even if they come up short, the teams that work feverishly to close the gap are the teams you want to keep in mind when you?re wagering. Their ?heart? and refusal to roll over will overwhelm less committed teams, and when these plucky teams enter the fourth quarter in a close game or with a lead, you can count on them usually pulling out the victory. Naturally, the stats that count the most will vary from sport to sport. However, by adopting these approaches into your betting strategies, you can go beyond the box score and give yourself the Inside Advantage over your competition. If you are thi.
