4/9/17

7-4-1, RoR +38.8%

Braves, FG, +135, Teheran (20-11) / Cole (12-9)

Yankees, FG, +117, Sabathia (14-16) / Miley (14-17)

Twins, FG, +118, Santana (23-7) / Quintana (23-9)

Athletics, FG, +102, Manaea (14-10) / Perez (18-14)

The folks are welcome to bet home field advantage all they want, but I compute pitching and offensive matchup advantages that are greater than that overrated factor.

Agreed, in baseball homefield is overrated except in some cases where you have a pitcher with great pitcher's ballpark and have huge splits.

I had the Rockies yesterday because of homefield, Kershaw has an ERA of almost 5 there and getting a line of +180. Now we know coors have other factors and Kershaw ended up pitching well but the Rockies won.

Congrats on the strong Saturday.

You really love the Twins and Santana. I still remember the infamous "they should be a -250 favorite today" comment last year, when the Twins were the worst team in baseball.

Key- You are a pretty good baseball capper. But, I'm sorry. I will never let you live down that dumb comment.  

I might jump on the Twinkies today with you. Looking into the Rangers myself. Public is all over Oakland right now, Texas is now the underdogs.

Good luck!

I like to but the 5 inning lines open so late they destroy the better dogs. Just look at the odds now as opposed to what I got early this morning. I still have a 5 inning under occasionally because the line does not drop much from half of full game if you have two great starters, but two crappy bullpens. 

I would bet if you and goalline bob got together it was more than a couple beers. 
   and on, and on, etc.

There's not too many sports where ML betting is a good proposition on a regular basis...

especially when you can go 2-2 and still profit
