My friends and I have always been into sports. While in Iraq, we opened up a sportsbook account. During our downtime we would read up on teams and trends and we ended up turning quite the profit. We started out following some of the service play touts only to be let down. We determined that we could do better and decided to form Sports Pedagogy. We have been working close with a bookie of 20 years finding ways to beat the books and avoiding traps. We have decided that we would start posting our plays full time for this MLB season. There was a little tie up with our account but it has been worked out and we can now post. Best of luck to all !
Rough day yesterday ... I contemplated between Phillies and Rockies for awhile but in the end i determined that nobody needs somebody to tell them that a -260 is a good favorite. Instead i went with the -200 rockies and Jimenez got tee'd off on. Guthrie shut down the rays, Angels lost it in the 9th and well .. the twins got killed. Always hard to get a feel for the players early. We have been doing well in other sports and i certain we will right this MLB ship ore sooner then later.
Yesterday felt better, we hit alot of our leans but didnt play all of them for fear of the unknown.
our Top Plays are still bombing, mostly in extra innings. I truly believe that sports betting is 75% preparation and 25% luck. That being said, each day we learn more about these teams and we continue to up our preparation. I feel confident for the future. We also have two other handicappers but they are currently focusing on NCAABB and NHL.
Our standings thus far:
Blake (2-5) -518
Riot (1-3) -350
Riots Plays
Rockies -185
Love the matchup. I believe that the Rockies bats will come alive for 5 runs in the first 6 innings off of a struggling Saunders. Chacin should hold the weak bats of Arizona to at most 2 runs thru his 6 and a half innings. The bull pens have been solid, but should start to fatigue a bit seeing solid action 3rd day in a row, so maybe a run for either team in the final innings, I see colorado walking away with a 6-3 win!
Blue Jays -140
Favorable line and a favorable match up. Toronto already proved they can hit the ball off of the Twins best pitchers, so Blackburn should be no problem. I think Cecil should continue to give the Twins fits. The Twins might attack the Blue Jays Bullpen late, but it will be to little , to late Blue Jays win 7-4.

Looked promising early, Blackburn was giving up hits and he just bended but didn't break. Then the 9th inning comeback fell just short. To make matters worse, the Rockies game was "Snowed out". It was 75degrees in Denver Saturday ..... Anyways, there are alot of baseball games left, so lets get to it.
Riot (1-4) -490
St Louis -148
I feel that, despite his last spring training game, Charlie Morton leaves alot to be desired. He could be just what St louis needs to break their batting slump. The Pittsburg Bullpen has been solid, there is a good chance that Meek will get the ball in his hands and possibly get into trouble. As for the Cardinals, Lohse had a great spring training and has proven to be a good pitcher when he is healthy. I see this one going 5-2 in favor of the cards, but for now, im going to stick with the ML, till we get a better look at this season.
Riot (5-7) -373
Mets -155
Phillies -120 (Sucker Bet that i think we win)
Yankes/Sox o10 -105 (Totals havent been nice to me ... but i like the rivalry)
Riot- I was riding high on B.A. Dickey before this season ... wait.. is it to late to rephrase that ? Anyways, i liked his match up against Washington and he fell flat, Phillies got up 3-0 ... then lost 3-6 ... but atleast the yankees/Redsox went over shortly after the ceremonial first pitch. Im hoping to pull out of the red before blake, so here we go !
Mariners/Indians o7.5 +105 - Decent starters, but Cleavland swings the bat well and Seattle has one of the worst bullpens thus far in MLB.
Marlins/Astros o8.5 -110 Both Vazquez and Norris got Tee'd off on last time, one may pull it together for this game, but i think the odds of them both having a great came are slim. i def see a 4-4 tie at somepoint in this game.
Giants -145 Line moving in favor of Cardinals, alot of people backing Garcia, but i think Cain keeps the Cardinals bats cold. The guy has been a machine since the playoffs. He is my sleeper Cy young and im going with him today.
Did you know .. Home dogs are 25-12 SU ? Dogs in general are 73-61 SU. expect this to eben out eventualy, but its still something to consider.
Rangers +115 - You could say Verlander wins this matchup, but dont sleep on Ogando. He threw 6innings of 2 hit ball in his first start, albiet against Seattle, it was still a nice job. The starters wont play the whole game, and Texas has been swing the bats better and own the better bullpen.
Rockies -107 Both pitchers struggled in their last games, Pelfrey struggled a lil bit more. The mets will have to rely on him in this one, cause once the game hits the bullpens, look out. the rockies own one of MLB best bullpens while the mets bullpen has struggled mightily, i fuly expect the rockies to squeeze out a late victory.
Oakland/CWS o8.5 -120 Both starting pitchers looked a lil rocky thus far, neither team has gotten decent play from their bullpen, it could be a rough day pitching all around or these two teams. i think the sox capitalize, but regardless, i think were looking at an 6-4 game.
Riot - By our records Vs amount lost, its obvious to see we are getting killed by the favs. Luckily, i think we are starting to even things out. Perfect day yesterday, hopefully it continues .
Oakland A's -145
Rockies/Mets Game 1 o8 -105
PHillies/Nats 07

The slide continues, Im going to tweak a few things, im going to avoid high priced games, instead im going to go with the RL. Im also going to limit my plays to plays i feel really good about instead of 3 plays a day. Ironiclly, i feel good about 4 plays today, so im going with them ..
Yanks -111 Looks cheap with Burnett on the mound. He is due to bounce but I dont think it happens tonight. Too much offense from NY.
St. Louis -152 Westbrook is so so but Pujols is beginning to come around and another powerful offense is healthy. May be high scoring but the Cards score more.
Riot is 6-2 in the NBA playoffs so hes going to continue to focus on that with a few MLB picks here and there.

In will take Texas -108 in what should be a nice pitching dual. Also taking the Cardinals to bounce back after game 1 loss and take the night cap -160. Finally going to take the Dodgers at home +120 to get enough run support to beat derek Lowe and the Atlanta Braves.
