    I don't know, probably in the 70s. Think I saw a few -300 lines (75%) with Scherzer facing weak offenses.

    Red Sox have such a good value at +168. Really hard betting against Archer, but Masterson very well is pitching for his spot in rotation in next couple starts. Been flat out awful of late, including last week vs this same Tampa team, didnt even go 5 innings, and got shelled.

    Not sure if I'll pull trigger but at +160+, My god its gonna be hard not to.

    Braves ML also a solid bet.

    I actually have a play in the 70s today and it is San Francisco 72% (-257). So I can't bet Colorado.

    Masterson last pitched May 12th, @ Oakland. Archer for some reason fares below avg vs. Boston.
    Over is 6.5

    Masterson was on DL, he was replaced by Joe Kelly, now he's filling in for Kellys spot rotation. Needs to pitch well today

    whats the weather like in Philly?

    I was thinking that game would sail over.

    Line at 8 seems like the bookies are tipping they hand.

    LT, since ppl don't always know what your model predicts, can you generalize how many cents off your price would still be justified as a play with value? Sorry if already asked but how many cents off actual lines, as a rule of thumb, do you require to justify a play? Thanks in advance.

    Calculate his ROI based on his bets and profit and then you know what's the range.

    If I was basing all of my bets 100% off of model results, answer would be 10%. But in realty, I have at times made bets on plays that were just pennies off and passed on plays with more than 10% variance, so I do use SOME judgement.

    Unreal that I am not 5-0 so far. White Sox blow that 4-0 lead in 8th, Twins/Brewers was 1-1 bottom 8th.

    Keep it up LT. Experience has built and is building a level subjective knowledge you may not realize you have. Some judgement calls utilize that knowledge when many hardly know they have it. While much of your judgement may revolve around the model, you also have subjective baseball gambling knowledge.

    It's part intuition, and just part innate wisdom.

    Mixing quantified subjective factors with other more straightforward statistics will greatly increase any bettors success and viewpoint of the marketplace.

    Stay ahead of the curve LT, looking good.

    LT you must have wanted to quit several times or weren't sure if you actually had something. Any tips other than meticulous record keeping? Do you compare to the closer everyday etc? This may be inappropriate questions.
