    1st thread here, need some help on my tips today

    Ok, I'm new here, I have been watching this forum for some times and just want to say you are doing a great job, most of you... keep it up

    anyway, I've been through few threads today and made some picks based on picks of some of the members here, I'm not a capper or anything, I dont even watch baseball but it seems like a solid sport to bet on, atleast for me, since I had some succes by tailing some members here on sbr

    so here are my picks today
    yankees -1.5
    cardinals : reds - Over 8.5
    white sox : KC royals - CWS ML

    and I maybe mexico city reds vs laguna cowboys... I dont know if anyone has any info on this game, since I really dont know anything bout this league

    so feel free to comment my picks, any help would be great, thnx

    Where did you get 8.5 or the Reds total?! You should get another book, most books have it at 8! GL!

    In baseball, the money is in the dogs. Not all dogs are good to bet, but if you focus on betting just a few of the best opportunities with good money lines you will likely end up ahead. Bet when the books are having to pay out a lot more than you would think for a team in a given situation.

    Another thing is you might want to avoid interleague games because the small rule change (DH) can do funny things to the motivation of the players and teams.

    I like small dogs or RL on huge favs to get back some of that juice. It doesn't always pan out, but I hate laying more than -150 on a huge fav only to see them win by 5-6 points. As for today I actually like CLE at home with Carrasco pitching. He should be able to hold them to 2-3 runs giving CLE a chance to win.

    I like the No Run and Under in the SD/SF game. SD and SF are one of the 2 worse hitting teams against righties in the league and they have 2 aces on the mound. Not sure who is going to win, but it seems like a 1-0 game to me.

    DET/LAA U is a very solid play. Neither team is a huge hitting force, they just play well on given spots. Two solid pitchers, the park they are playing in etc make this a pretty decent play. The Yankees are always unpredictable at best I always avoid games when they win against a lessor team on the first outing. CC S. Is a great pitcher but that doesn't score runs.

    I'm liking ATL with 2 key players out for the Rockies. That game also should be a low scoring game. If your looking for low juice Tampa with Shields on the mound might just be the best play. The Rays always play better on the road than at home.

    no luck today, played the games above, parlay, padres blew it...
    I threw out yankees RL they trashed that other team, I threw out cars and reds over, I threw out pirates and astros no run 1st inning
    so far only good thing was throwing white sox out of my plays...
    really no luck in picking plays today, and it just hurts cuz it seems it was just one of those days where every game went how it was supposed to go and money was there to take... maybe I thought too much , looks like it, simple was the way to go today
