MLB RPI SYSTEM 2012

Back to my question on 6/28/12. CLE @ BAL had an rpi difference of 45. BAL had won 4 of their last 10. DET @ TB had an rpi difference of 42. TB had won 4 of their last 10. CHW @ NYY had an rpi difference of 39. At this point the system is purely a mechanical system. Once you start putting things in like "best player is out", "team era is too high", "bad team is hot", "team doesn't do well out west", etc. the system is no longer mechanical. I just go by the rpi difference rule and don't play the first month of the season. I'm doing fine this year and it takes me five minutes to figure out the plays. This is baseball and anything can happen. Remember, the first rule of the system is the good teams beat the bad teams. So I played BAL and TB and they both won their "B" games. I did not play NYY because it did not meet the rpi minimum. That being said, I hope you guys win the NYY "C" game because win is what we all want each other to do regardless of  the discussions we have. If I did something wrong, I can't find it and I've been dead on when I match my picks with what you put on this forum up until now.

I double checked that game (cle/bal) RP-RT, I didn't see those numbers (RPI difference) you are talking about. Maybe I missed it.  You may be right...fyi.

As far as the other filters, well, I don't generally use them either. I normally just go with what the RPI says.  Good points by the way.

bettor2win, this is what I downloaded from ESPN on 6/26/12. does it maech what you used?

Yes it is what I have.  But on 6/26, I thought I doublechecked that even with the degen and canis spreadsheets and it showed BAL/CLE at a 39 difference.  Maybe it's this new vegetarian diet I'm on. 

We have 4 potential plays for tomorrow heading into the 4th of July week. This is when this system really got going last year.  Maybe someone could light a FIRECRACKER under the RPI's A$$ and we could win some "A" games.  The plays look look like, potentially:

NORTH EASTERN BIRDS
SNAKES
ONE EYED BANDITS
TOMAHAWKS

I'm trying something new. See if Karma comes our way.

I'm in for 3.5 units a piece.

Not sure what you are trying to do, but here are the rpi and stats as they existed the morning of 06/28/12.

Show Me the Numbers!

ATL is a go.

PIT is a go using the 40-42 range for a home team RPI differential.  (the differential is at 40 for this game)

Okay, I must have screwed up somewhere and it was too late for me to go back and get the 6/28/12 numbers again from ESPN to be sure I had the correct set. It's all good. Thanks for the help. Thanks again for the system. Now I'm golden in MLB and NCAAB. I have to continue working on NFL and NBA though.

havent seen a recap for June.   looks like it was a risky month but still profitable.     Chasing the DOG was  a theory I back checked after a DREADFUL MAY which netted over 2000 for the month of MAY vs. chasing the favorite which netted next to nothing.
