    Ali and I just wanted to thank all you guys. Counting our threads last year, we just got our 250,000 click. If we knew who the person was, we would mail a case of Pilsner Urquell to your front door. Anyway, we can't thank you enough. You don't even troll when we suck with the dogs. But it looks like The Dog Machine© is back on track.

    Thanks again.

    This is an overall great thread. Of course a lot depends on OP's personality and style. TBH you never suck with the dogs, you have a reliable system with decent variance which is profitable long term, but everyone knows this.

    Best of luck!!

    I can't see backing Yovani Gallardo tonight. Here's my reasoning, if you'd be okay with shedding some light on your decision (because J.A. Happ is no stud himself).

    So obviously the basics, he has an ERA of 5.59 and a whip of 1.65. That alone scares me. But where it really makes me shy from him against a powerful offense like Seattle is his BAbip and G/F ratio. Dude has a .400 BAbip (% of batted balls that result in hits). That's insane. Granted he does strike out almost 12 per 9, it's still nuts. But his G/F is 0.45, which is scary considering he will be going against guys tonight who live to hit the ball in the air. That combo just doesn't sit well with me.

    So maybe I'm missing something here that you could help me out with because it seems like a lot of people are on the opposite side of me on this one.

    We are system bettors and use a lot of algorithms and various filters in handicapping dogs. Plus, we use a ton of trends involving as many previous games as possible. So, here are two significant trends regarding this game.

    Sub .600 early season (< 28 games under their belt) underdogs are 1303-1590 (45.0%, +144.63 units straight up.

    Early season dogs are 919-977, +196.66 units. This trend was extrapolated and refined from the above system with an added filter that made sense.

    So, to us this game made sense as it made it through our handicapping system which had many other filters. The Dog Machine© is rocket science. In addition, according to what we have, Gallardo is a little higher rated but you bring up good points. We just want to show you a little of what went into capping this game.

    Looks like Locke has been scratched for Worley. Still a play for Ali on the brewers?

    We always list our pitchers on the betting slip and so that makes the game scratched for us. Every time you see a pitcher change you know our game is scratched.

    Absolute truth. That's why I liked your comment regarding the game. Our common goal is to kick the sports books ass. That simple. But the way you handicapped that game is awesome. That's why we love this thread. There are so many intelligent bettors in this thread, we have learned a ton in here and hope you guys do too.

    Cracking day, see if you can finish it off..... but either way great day. It was my first day following today lol nice time to start tailing.

    Must be tempting to not play some picks when your always picking dogs but got to be disciplined and trust the system.

    That's the hallmark of these dogs sometimes. But, well, we know we are gonna lose half these games. But the Texas loss stung, no doubt about it. You can't complain about a 4-2 day with the dogs. Still love them, it's the only way to bet baseball.

    You really can't complain. I cover all the loss from soccer bets because of mlb dogs. Looking forward to reading your thread over all season.
