    To Hedge or Not To Hedge?

    And if so, how would you go about it? Thinking of a Mets/Over parlay to balance it out in case the runs come in droves as they'll likely be the ones doing the damage.

    I have a really low bankroll right now so every buck counts, but I'd like to go into the break on a winning note and would hate to miss both parlays. Thoughts?

    Yeah, thinking of doing all 4 combinations to come out with at least $100 regardless.

    If all you were trying to win was $100 you wouldn't have made four or five team parlays. I too think you should play it out. If I was going to make a hedge, I'd bet on the over. That's the one that will probably hurt you. Giants win this game...Pelfrey sucks on the road and Cain has been pitching well (other than last start).

    They were shots in the dark really, didn't expect to win both so I'm happy to play all combos with a little more on the SFG/Over. Still make out with $500+ if the parlays hit. Thanks for the insight!
