I don't know what has happened. Nothing has really changed. I just happened to hit a lot of RL in the past two days. I actually kind of tried your style a bit. I know you are shooting for 500 plays, but I know you play a bunch of games regardless. I thought I would just try and play most of my leans and match them up with some RL. Just lucky two days. I am just happy to be positive for the season.
Thanks again. Best of luck to you as well.

No idea. I have no intention of playing them again as of yet.
TA, I bought points on the spread. You played the ML. We both won that one with the ladies.
Didn't know anyone was following me, but for anyone who is. Just letting you know I'm being a little more cautious. Not doing plays every day anymore. I think I already explained to some of you I have a job that interferes a lot of days. I've decided to fish out the good ones like a patient fisherman.
No worries, there are enough great picks to go around here. 
**My new approach may or may not work out, but I figure what better time to do it than the beginning of the second half. Cash positive with plenty to play around with. As always anything posted here is for us to help each other as best we can. Bet at your own risk, and I would strongly recommend everyone to come up with there own system that only uses others' picks as filters at best.Comment -
Congrats, brutha. Good to see another guy tearin it up. I predict that more like MexicanStallion will come around, and you tailers out there can start doing some real strong consensus picks here on this board. Heh.I don't know what has happened. Nothing has really changed. I just happened to hit a lot of RL in the past two days. I actually kind of tried your style a bit. I know you are shooting for 500 plays, but I know you play a bunch of games regardless. I thought I would just try and play most of my leans and match them up with some RL. Just lucky two days. I am just happy to be positive for the season.
Thanks again. Best of luck to you as well.
Curious, looks like you're back on track with your old ways. For anyone who doesn't know about Curious; I can tell you he's one of the best here. Don't let a few bad days fool you. This crackhead knows what's going on.

1 for 4 last night, dropping 4.56 units.
Alright, so my percentages give me the following as strong probabilities to win :
TOR, ARI, LAA, DET, ATL. These are listed in order of decreasing probability. So from those I will be choosing the matchups that I like best.
TOR -1.5 +130 risk 1.5 units
The starting pitching matchup favors the Blue Jays. Rzepczynski has had a solid start and the Indians have yet to see him. Huff has had a rough go of it vs. AL opposition and has rarely made it past the 5th inning. Bring on that Indian bullpen!
LAA -1.5 +140 risk 1 unit
Revenge is sweet. After getting swept by the Twinkies in the dome, the Angels will be looking to tack some more W's onto that win streak. The Twins are coming off a rough series in Oakland and can't wait to get back home. Unfortunately they will have to pay their toll in Los Angeles before they can get there.
DET -118 win 2 units
French has been very good to start his major league career and has always given Detroit an excellent opportunity to win games, they are 4-1 with him on the mound. Washburn has also been good, but not quite as good on the road. The Mariners snagged one on the road last night, tonight, the Tigers take it back.
Good luck to all.

Forgot to mention, I didn't go with the Braves because I didn't want to pay that kind of juice when a team is going for a 4 game sweep. The Braves have flat out dominated this series and the Giants have been horribly deflated. The part that makes me hesitant is that the Braves have been so abnormally dominant and the Giants have been so abnormally deflated that I wouldn't be surprised to see a little normalcy to return, perhaps even going in the opposite direction.
The Diamondbacks are carrying some mega juice for this game and I don't trust their bats with the runline. I think Haren will be good, but the Pirates usually impress me in situations like this and do better than I expect. Morton has excellent numbers as a reliever against many of the D-Back starters. I will have money on Arizona in this series, just not this game.

Today's write up
Today I believe I have a write up for ya:
Here's what I've got, and let's hope this boy cashes:
LAA -150 (2.5 units)
LAA -1.5 +140 (.5 units)
In the past three games LAA are slugging at .556 with .345 avg compared to the Twins .500 and .278 avg. We've got a 60% runs per inning for the past 3 games a bullpen with a .700 ERA and a 1.210 21 day ERA compared to a Twins' 2.231 ERA and 1.418 21 day. I personally feel the pitchers are fairly even matched maybe a lean on Weaver, but that's alright; I expect LAA to cleanup today. This team plays well on the grass, and at home, and does a bit better against righties to trump whatever starter advantage there may be.
Seatle +120 (.5 units)

Raining real hard in Detroit right now and calling for rain througout the day.
Tampa Bay vs Chicago:
Tampa Bay:
Kazmir throwing the pill today. He has been erratic his last 3 starts, going 0-1, but the team winning 2 of those games. Tampa is not horrible on the road (22-28), but they aren't the same team away from home. Last night they lost late by giving up 3 runs in the 7th inning. TB is batting .267 vs lefties the last 10, and they have a couple of players out with injuries.
Chicago:
Buehrle is pitching today and he is 14-6 in his last 20 starts at U.S. Cellular Field. He did have a rough outing 2 starts ago, giving up 8 runs in 3 innings at Minny. However, other than that, he has given up no more than 3 runs in his last 5 starts. CWS are batting .345 in their last 10 against lefties, but they are sitting out Thome for rest today.
OTHER: Bull-pen edge goes to TB, CWS are 8-3 in their last 11 home games, and TB has only won 8 of the last 25 games at Chicago. Buehrle is really tough to beat at home.
PICK: White Sox (1 unit)
Record: 30-19-1 (+18 units)
Not getting a strong feeling on any of the games today so far. I won a couple last night and another on tuesday, but they were all pretty lucky. All come from behind, one run games (Phillies xtra innings, Seattle late home run, Houston a 9th inning rally)
Good Luck on all your plays, may try again later............

Thank you. I appreciate the support.
Thank you. I posted late in here, but plenty of time ahead in my thread. Since you and another poster are on the White Sox, I think I will add that play for a unit. I had a lean on it, but feel stronger with you guys on board.
It must be the power of the thread. All good vibes. Thanks for sharing your thread.
