For all of those haters, the people who don't understand how long the baseball season is, and for the people who don't understand statistics, here is a stat for you:

Games Played on Avg So Far: 22

Games In Reg Season: 162

22/162 = 13.58% of the season.

This MEANS that if GH trends the exact same way he has over the rest of the season.... He will be up...

7.3636 * 4.42 =

32.55 Knoblachs

So even after all the bad beats and "How Terrible He's doing" comments think about some true statistics and money management before you come in here bashing you losers.

Keep up the great work Game and remember you're barely over 10% of the way through the season!

GH thanks for your picks and I am with you all the way...My question is why would you chose to bet the spread on 3 home teams?  If they are up by 1 after the Top of the 9th the game is over... It is like we are missing out on 3 extra outs to get the runs we need to win our bet.  Just wanted to know what your thinking on this might be...Not bitching or anything like that...

Those are all valid points but are also factored into the runlines. Home teams -1.5 runs are typically 30-40 cents cheaper than they would be if they were on the road for that very point. Today's games:

1. Cubs - I think Randy Wells is one of the most underrated pitchers in the NL. He has good GB rates which should help on a windy day like today and he has allowed 3 earned runs or less in 23 of his 31 Cub starts. Lopez ia a big fly ball pitcher. Not good on a day like this.

2. Dodgers have been struggling but mostly to left handers. Morton who I have backed a lot in the past, just might be what the doctor ordered.

3. Tampa is 17-5 overall. They have covered the runline in 14 of their 17 wins and in 13 of this L14. Niemann dominated the Royals in the past while the Rays have hit Bannister.

GL game, the Dodgers are brutal right now, but Morton is worse, 28 hits and 24 earned runs against in 4 starts

What are your thoughts gamehunter about Boston RL?

I think Boston destroys Baltimore today especially after a day off.

They are 45-18= 71% after a day off.
Money Management and discipline is the key to success in sports investing

GL Game...

We're on different pages today.  I like TEX, but not playing any of the others.  I am fading CHC though...
