bballs84 · 04-01-13, 02:25 PM

Two afternoon plays

WHITE SOX -125 ($125 to win $100)
REDS -115 ($115 to win 100$)

Going to try my best to update spreadsheet all the time too.. Best of luck

bballs84 · 04-01-13, 08:21 PM

Last play of the night

DBACKS -105 ($105 to win $100)

bballs84 · 04-02-13, 01:30 PM

Well finished day 1:

3-3 (down 5$)

No harm done at all.. Didnt expect Burnett to pitch that good opening day but you live and you learn.. Felt like Reds had tons of chances to win that are in extras but let them slip away.. On to day 2 plays posted shortly

bballs84 · 04-02-13, 02:18 PM

RANGERS -170 ($170-$100)

Usually don't like laying juice like this but I think the Rangers bounce back tonight.. Darvish will continue where he left off last year and this spring.. Might have a late west coast play.. Best of luck

bballs84 · 04-03-13, 08:46 AM

Day 2 done:

4-3 Overall ( +95$)

Darvish was excellent and I wish he would have finished the thing off.... One of those games that feels great from beginning til the end.. Lots of baseball today here is what I like:

YANKEES -120 ($120 to win $100)
Looking for the Yanks to bounce back here after all the flack they have taken after GM1

A's -145 ($145 to win $100)
Might be a little bit of a homer pick here as I am a huge A's fan.. Not a big fan of Saunders and the A's killed lefties last year.. I will take my chances

bballs84 · 04-04-13, 07:55 AM

Day 3 Done:

5-4 Overall (+$75)

Loss of 20$ on the day.. Did not expect Kuroda to try and play Hero and get ran early for bare handing a ball... Expected that solid effort out of the A's against the lefty and sure enough Young hits a bomb in his first start of the year... Today here is what I like..

Over 8.5 Reds vs Angels ($110 to win $100)

I think the bats finally get going in this one... I expect Hamilton to have a little break out and Blanton going for Angels should get touched for at least 4 or 5... Gonna Ride the over here in Cincy

Will be back this afternoon with some more plays... Make $

Bostongambler · 04-04-13, 08:03 AM

Good luck bballs

bballs84 · 04-04-13, 09:11 AM

Thanks Boston and to you too buddy

bballs84 · 04-04-13, 02:05 PM

Well we can cash this one early fellas.. Just what we like.. Big Joe gave up 5 like I hinted at and Hamilton drove in 2 and has been on base twice.. It's nice when things work out the way you expect them too.. Two plays left today gonna go to the AL East

YANKEES -115 ($115 to win $100)
Yes I know Andy is getting even older but guy still has great stuff.. He's a big game pitcher and although only the third game of the year I think the Yankees and especially their fans view this as a big game.. He will keep them in it and I think the offense does just enough to get it done..

Jays -1.5 +115 (100$ to win $115)
Another team with high expectations that has under performed out of the gate.. Looking for Buhrle to get back to his old ways being back in the AL.. I think the offense awakes in a big way gonna take them here on the RL..

As always Best of Luck and Make$

bballs84 · 04-04-13, 10:20 PM

Well another Day done and very good going 3-0

Overall 8-4 (+$390)

Andy threw the gem I was hoping for and the Yankees got a much needed win.. What a roller coaster with the Jays though.. Took a 3 run lead 3 different times in this one only to let the Tribe come back after every one.. Big move by Reyes in the 8th to score from second on a double play ball that Bautista beat out bc of a kippins un clean exchange from glove to hand.. Great start to the season fellas long way to go.. Keep making$

bballs84 · 04-05-13, 08:48 AM

Well not much catch my eye this early morning.. Gonna make one play right now and maybe back later with another.. Hope to continue a nice little streak to start the season...

MARLINS +140 ($75 to win $105)

Make$

bballs84 · 04-05-13, 05:31 PM

About 30 min to gametime boys would be nice to start this Friday with a dog hit..Not thrilled by the card today/tonight and don't want to force anything else tonight.. Long season.. Go Marlins

bballs84 · 04-05-13, 11:42 PM

Another perfect day going 1-0 with the Marlins upset win.. That's 5 in a row could not ask for a better start to the season.. All plays being recorded on Spread Sheet

Overall Record 9-4 (+$495)

Make$ fellas

bballs84 · 04-06-13, 03:04 PM

Play for Today so Far

ANGELS +110 ($100 to win $110)

Day game in Arlington and I think the HALOS get their bats going... Struggling so far in this early season and nothing like a day game in TEXAS to get the bats going... Hanson makes his AL debut this afternoon and I look for him to keep a lot of these Ranger hitters off balance.. Will be back later.. Hoping to keep this run going.. Make$ fellas

bballs84 · 04-06-13, 04:50 PM

Another great start lets have the bullpen hold on...

bballs84 · 04-07-13, 11:21 AM

Another perfect day Boys.. Rolling Along

Overall Record 10-4 (+$605)

I believe that is 5 in a row and 9 of last 10.. Not to mention two straight Dog hits.. Being really selective right now not forcing any plays.. Some think I should up my units during this hot streak but I know this is a very long season and just trying to stay consistent.. On to today... Some big time Aces out there at plus $ which you usually never see.. Is it a trap? Or is there really true value behind these horses.. To start going to try and get dog win #3 in a row..

RED SOX +110 ($100 to win $110)
The Sox send Lester to the bump where he was lights out all spring and in his 1st start this season.. Dickey has come back to earth in the AL in the WBC and his 1st start.. No Bautista for a 3rd straight day in the Lineup and going to Ride the Sox to a W here on Sunday

Braves -140 ($140 to win $100)
Huddy on the mound for the Red hot Braves against The Wr from ND.. Jeffe was out standing during the opener but I see him coming back to earth her in HOT lanta.. Justin Upton off to a tremendous start and look for the Braves bats to just do enough before turning it over to lights out Kimbrel

Best of luck in the morning fellas Make$

bballs84 · 04-07-13, 12:22 PM

Wow a great start for Dog number 3 in a row 5-0 Sox Hopefully Lester on his game

bballs84 · 04-07-13, 02:35 PM

Braves take 3 run lead in the 6th looking like 7 in a row could be around the corner

bballs84 · 04-07-13, 04:08 PM

Overall record 12-4 (+$815)

That's 7 in a row fellas.. Making$

bballs84 · 04-07-13, 04:20 PM

Got a lean with Weaver tonight not sure if I will make it official

bballs84 · 04-07-13, 05:49 PM

Last play of the day going for 8 in a row

ANGELS +120 ($100 to win $120)

Weaver has been historically bad in Arlington but going against that trend... Darvish was lights out against the AAA Stros but developed a small blister in the process... The guy also threw 111 pitches in his 1st outing.. I know the public all over the Angels but public not always wrong.. Going Halos streaking for 8

Make$

bballs84 · 04-08-13, 08:46 AM

Well the streak finally came to an end as Weaver continued to be horrible in Texas

Overall Record 12-5 (+$715)

Still having a great start to this brand new year... On tap for today

Yankees +105 ($100 to win $105)

We are going to try this again with Kuroda.. Hopefully no bare handed line drives.. A lot of fans have over reacted to the slow start and I think the odds makers too.. CC was +190 yesterday against Verlander and threw a gem..

Will be back later with more Make$

bballs84 · 04-09-13, 12:34 PM

Winner with Yanks

Overall Record 13-5(+$820)

Winner today is your LA DODGERS -135 ($135 to win $100)

Staying on this streak fellas make$

bballs84 · 04-10-13, 11:45 AM

Loss with Dodgers yesterday.. One day play today..

Overall Record 13-6 (+$685)

RAYS +110 ($100 to win $110)

I like this price with Moore on the mound against a scatter brain in Holland.. Neve know what you will get with him.. Look for Longoria to hit his first bomb of year today.. Rays for the win

Make$

bballs84 · 04-10-13, 08:19 PM

Another winner.. Although no Longlria Bomb.. Moore fantastic

Overall Record 14-6 (+$795)

Making$ fellas

bballs84 · 04-11-13, 08:50 AM

Play today is a Day Game

Giants -140 ($140 to win $100)

Look for Vogelsong to be solid yet again... Giants will build off the sweep at home of the Rocks as they take on another bottom feeder in the Cubs.. Giants scored 10 runs yesterday and look to continue the trend today.. Giants start the Road Trip off with a W..

I'm with you but if the gm gets rained out then it's waste

bballs84 · 04-11-13, 11:47 AM

Agree about the weather.. Light rain falling right now.. Line ups out like what I see.. Hoping they can get this one in for the WIN

bballs84 · 04-13-13, 10:06 AM

No plays yesterday.. Update...

Overall Record 15-6 (+$895)

Two plays for the Day today...

Rays +120 ($100 to win $120)
Price vs Lester after the rain out yesterday.. I expect a lot better effort out of Price today than in his first two outings... The hard throwing lefty will keep the Sox offense off balance all day long... Getting a great PRICE, no pun intended, in this game with the Ace going for the Rays..

Tigers -120 ($120 to win $100)
Did a write up last night already on this one.. I am a die Hard A's fan and they are the hottest team in baseball.. Going against all of that to back Verlander today.. Guy eliminated them last year from the playoffs by himself.. I believe the A's struck out 17 times last night in their walk off 12 inning win.. Look for more of the same today... Big key in this one was that Crisp and Cespedes both unlikely to play after leaving mid game last night with injuries.. 1Pm start which means no rest for those two and out of the lineup they should be..

Two Aces today at great prices... Lets keep this great season going

Make$ fellas

CATA · 04-13-13, 10:15 AM

would you place a small wager on the under for both games also?

bballs84 · 04-13-13, 10:37 AM

Yes if I played either total I would lean under for both.. BOL with your plays

bballs84 · 04-13-13, 12:31 PM

Those of you waiting to see lineups no Coco, Cespedes, or Lowrie in line up.. Game is a must play

bballs84 · 04-13-13, 05:52 PM

Looking like its going to be a split as long as Tigers hang on and a wash on the day games $ wise.. One play left..

Reds -145 ($145 to win $100)
Liking Cueto in this spot.. Hoping to see Votto get going and Phillips to continue to mash for their Ace..

Make$ fellas

bballs84 · 04-14-13, 10:15 AM

First losing day in a while..

Overall Record 16-8 (+$750)

Phillies -140 ($140 to win $100)
Banking on Halladay figuring this thing out.. When a struggling pitcher takes the mound a good remedy is usually the marlins... Think it's a pretty good price considering the fact if the real Halladay was pitching in this thing would be around -200

Jays -110 ($110 to win $100)
Like the jays going for the sweep here today with Morrow on the mound.. They seemed to rally together without Reyes and steer the ship in the right direction.. A sweep would be huge today look for a couple of long balls to keep the W streak going..

Will be back later for 1pm games... Make$
