Three multiple run leads blown out of the four losses. Can't get more frustrating than that. But wait, this is only the beginning of baseball so I guess I better get used to it! The only consolation in playing and losing with dogs, is the fact that they lost too. 
1-4 -300 yesterday
15-12 +415 ytd
Oakland +106 Boston may be waking up.
Not too many choices. Will sleep on it and see if it looks better in the morning.
Good luck everybody!

So what is "predominately favorites"? What is your range -150, -200 or more? I have never chirped after winning with dogs and I don't bet them so I can boast of any glory. If you're playing predominate favorites exclusively, you will lose in the long run. The Covers graveyard is littered with many that played the favorites and lost in the end. Just for information purposes, I rarely play a favorite over -122, maybe up to -125. If I really like a big favorite, I'll play the run line to reduce the juice and that has to be either even or plus $. Maybe you should start posting your plays on a daily basis. I'll be possibly there everyday to wish you luck but I WILL NEVER be there after the fact, to tell you, "you lost".

Spot on Tinfoils
You're right on the state of (starting and relief) pitching. Nolan Ryan referenced today's pitchers as pampered and without toughness. The days of the 10-11 man staff with four starters and a fifth "long reliever" that would pitch in a doubleheader or come in before the fifth inning to get to the 7th inning (if needed) so the "closer" could come in and finish the game are long gone. I guess the amount of money being paid to pitchers dictate the short stints of the starters. Which then dictate the amount of relief pitchers you need to be competitive.
BINGO 
well said Tinfoils
who's boasting not TinFoils .... not sure who or what your comment pertains to lajohn?
