Pluthero's 2013 MLB Thread

[RetardStrength]

Yup the night before we got lucky, last night...unlucky!! LOL, just like you pointed out. Oh well. Let's get it back today!

BOL

[Pluthero]

I crashed before the games were over too. I hate that feeling first thing in the morning when I realized things went bad...but at the same time at least I didn't stay awake to watch that crapfest.

I'm feeling good today, RS! A lot of units on the line. As usual, don't bet more than you're comfortable losing, though.

4/24/13
Reds -168 3.0X
Nationals -153 2.5X
White Sox -130 1.0X
Mariners -117 3.5X
Giants -163 5.5X
Red Sox -163 4.5X
Pirates +105 3.5X
Yankees +105 4.5X
Brewers -125 3.5X

Good luck all!

Any opinion on the O's today? You don't see any value?

Ive been betting on the Nats the past like 5 games waiting for them to turn it around and it hasn't helped. Im afraid -150 is too high even for Strasburg for a team which cant get a run! With that being said, Im sure they will win today..

I don't see any value with Stinson on the hill. He's yet to show that he can get MLB hitters out. I also think Toronto's the better team even without Reyes. If there's any value in this game it's probably in the over 9, imo. But as you know, I don't bet totals.

[Pluthero]

There's your over, hope someone was on it.

That sucked. Losing that Giants game in extras was the whole day for me. We're still on pace for 100+ units, but this past week has been a little brutal.

[joco]

i literally have 8/11 of ur plays today the same...i hope we have a good day. need it after yesterday

[Pluthero]

You ain't kidding joco. Good luck to you today sir, on all your plays.

[RetardStrength]

Yes GL Pluthero, I'm on the Phils and can't decide on the Rockies but other than that locked and loaded

BOL!

[Tofudog]

Good luck today Pluthero.. With my vast knowledge of baseball .. I managed to pick only the 5 of the 6 that you lost.. plus I decided to play B'more cuz I'm a fan. I think its finally time to lay off the Nats till they get their form back... each run they get is from their 7-9 hitters. Werth, Harper, LaRoche.. aint doing anything. I think they miss Morse.

Good luck today man!

[Pluthero]

Bad luck on the Phils, RS. That Philly bullpen is oddly mediocre. At the beginning of the season, I really thought it might be one of their strengths with Papelbon, Adams, and Bastardo.

Tofudog, I can tell you from personal experience that you should probably lay off Baltimore games. Your judgement is clouded because of your fandom and will cost you money. If I had back all the money that I lost betting on a certain team that is dead to me now, I'd...well...I'd have a lot of money.

Good luck Gentlemen, 3 down, 8 to go.

That's more like it. Thanks chrizgod!

[iMxth3xbossx5000]

thats sum good shit right there man... who u liking for today

[RetardStrength]

BOOOOOM!!!! A much needed bounce back!

I am so pissed at myself. I checked your card and about 90% of them matched up to mine, which is somewhat typical. The reason I check is I value your expertise! You certainly have the ability to sway my decisions. So I had the Phillies, and you had the Pirates, and I thought "Pluthero knows best" and I switched the play. Then I thought (let's say overthought) and went with my original lean on Lee, thinking he'd go 8 or maybe even 9 and the Phils would get a bounce back win after a let-down the day before. So I flip-flopped, and right as I put the play in, I dropped the units to 1/2 (since Phils were heavy favs) and played them. Penetrate me. I am officially done playing the Phils. Their bats are a joke and their bullpen is deplorable. From here on out, the Phils and the Angels are an auto-fade or a non play.

Keep up the good work, Pluthero. I need one more bounce back day and I should be back in the black for the week!

[joco]

do it again today pal

[Pluthero]

Hey guys, I didn't get up early enough to finish capping all the games today before I left for work. I'll post my picks tonight when I get the chance.

[Pluthero]

That's a tough flip flop RS. I finally got to the point where if I'm not sure about a game, I lay off. I thought that game yesterday was a toss-up so I took the dog. Had Philly been +160 or whatever I would've been all over them (not that there was a chance of that with Lee pitching).

Thanks for the points, bullshooter! As it turns out I've got more time at work today than I thought so here we go:
4/6/13
Nationals -130 1.0X
Yankees -133 3.0X
Braves +122 2.0X
Cubs -111 2.5X
Mets -124 2.0X

White Sox -135 0.5X
Rangers -120 1.0X
Cardinals -201 2.0X
Rockies +120 4.0X
Orioles +105 2.0X
Giants -114 0.5X
Angels -140 2.5X

BOL everyone!!

[joco]

bro r u reading my mind? i agree with 9/13 plays and the rest are no plays for me. lets goooooo

[Pluthero]

Let's get it joco! Thanks for the points chrizgod!

[Catchn_Picks]

Dude you are seriously on full on fire! This is one of the best streaks I have seen in quite awhile. Congratulations already in even before the games are all done.

TY for posting...please quit your job...just kidding.

[RetardStrength]

What a night!!!

Great work bud! I am back in the black BIG TIME! Only differences on the board for me besides not playing a couple was I played the Mariners and the Padres.

I'm officially convinced I'm the Philadelphia Mush!!! LOL. When I play them, they lose, when I fade them, they win!!!

I'm not going to complain, however. You sold me on going big on the Rockies, and that was my biggest play of the night... Had me nervous through 4 then BOOM they open it up! Not only did I go big on them, I parlayed the Rocks with the Orioles so hit quite nicely on that as well. Between MLB and going 2-0 on NBA last night, it was a +500 night.

Thanks again for your hard work. If I could throw you more than 2 pts, I would!

BOL today!

Thanks Catchn, I just hope to maintain some semblance of this going forward. And honestly, if it was up to me, I'd quit my job and just cap.....my wife has different thoughts about that though.

What a night!!!

Sounds like a good night buddy and I'm glad to help get you back in the black. I was a little nervous about Colorado, too. When they put in Outman, I thought we were doomed. Fortunately they were watching him close and were able to get Belisle in there before things got too ugly.

Good luck today guys! I slept in this morning for the first time in a while so it's going to be a bit before I post any picks.

Break the books

[Itsamazing777]

Who would even believe this? 1000 for 5 games is ridiculous.

[Pluthero]

As soon as the mods wake up they'll delete the post.

Hey Johnny do me a favor, don't directly quote him. Just reference the poster because when the mods do delete his post, his quote will still remain in your post. Savvy?

[Vinnie Paz]

you dont play runlines?
-265 is a lot.

Thanks man, the mods do a pretty good job of deleting his posts after they get reported (red triangle at the top right of the post). Good luck to you today buddy!

[Pluthero]

Nope. It is a lot, but I don't see Houston winning this particular game 27% of the time. I've been burned on run lines before and just prefer to keep it simple.

[Swarles]

Im not the biggest fan of baseball, but sports betting has me hooked lately. So I've got to find some sort of pattern to it. Your picks lately are ridiculously hot. But I've gotta try the blue jays today, they need a game, sabathia pitched like garbage against TB, and Happ had a good outing last time.

Either way, Good luck to all!

[Pluthero]

Adding...Mariners -162 0.5X

Good luck Swarles and welcome to SBR.
I don't think Sabathia gets hit much today. The last time he got rocked (against Boston) he went out and threw 7 shutout innings 5 days later.

[RetardStrength]

Sabathia beast mode today and more importantly, these Yankees bats are finding themselves lately.

Sabathia will feed off of the offensive confidence and all we need is him to open up strong. It's not time to fade the Yankees yet.

Were on same page today except I'm on the Padres.

A couple spots of yours are no plays for me.

Lets get em again today!!!
