Phillies dumping on the Rangers right now. Had a feeling that would happen. Glad I stayed away from the O/U there.. GL on your picks.

Madison · 03-31-14, 02:45 PM

3 run homer for Bogaerts gets back in the park. Wheh!!

Tillman = lot of flat fastballs.

mgoncalves10 · 03-31-14, 03:13 PM

Tigers win in a walk-off.. Baseball is back

Madison · 03-31-14, 03:47 PM

If this was July sox would be up 5. Lot of well hit balls snagged at the wall. Not impressed with Tillman.

Yeah, at least i didn't have to sweat that one long, eh? I started my first rain dance of 2014 in the second inning in Arlington. Obviously, it didn't work.

Thanks a lot for the well-wishes, fellas. Appreciate it. So psyched that baseball is back!

1-1-1 -0.03u afternoon

Leans for tonight: Tribe ML, Giants/Dbacks over 8 (roof open), Mariners ML (hard to pass on Felix at plus-money)

Razorbacks1 · 03-31-14, 07:31 PM

With you on the Indians. Anyone else like the Giants?

You said it better than I could've. Sox lineup took some big blows this offseason, losing Elsbury, Salty, Drew and Victorino likely out today with pulled hammy. They really struggled with the bats in spring training. I'd hit Lester well last year (like 4.70 ERA In 4 starts). I think Sox will be fat and happy from World Series title and start the year slowly. BOL whatever you decide OMGChoGath.

Cruz coming thru!

Lean Giants but like over better. Probably passing on that game.

BiffTFinancial · 03-31-14, 08:35 PM

Less enthused about Tribe after noting that Masterson is 0-5 with 7.71 ERA in 6 career games in Oakland.

BiffTFinancial · 04-01-14, 05:24 AM

Monday 3.31.2014 final card
1* Phillies/Rangers under 8 (-113) - LOSER
1* Orioles ML (+110) - WINNER
1* Cardinals -1 RL (+114) - PUSH
1* Marlins -1 RL (+104) - WINNER

2-1-1 +1.01u

Too bad i passed on my late leans as they all won, but good to know that i had the right read on those games. Onward and upward.

YTD: 3-1-1 +2.01u

BiffTFinancial · 04-01-14, 06:04 AM

early leans for Tuesday
Rockies/Marlins over 7
Jays/Rays under 7'
Phils/Rangers under 8'
Brewers
Braves/Brewers under 8
Tribe
M's

would lean Giants/Dbacks over with the roof again supposed to be open, but Cooper behind the plate there leans pretty strong to the under. can't play under in AZ with roof open. may have to give that one some more thought or simply pass.

Rick22 · 04-01-14, 07:42 AM

Nice start Biff.

Tuesday 4.1.2014
1* Rockies/Marlins over 7 (-105)
1* Braves/Brewers under 8 (-110)
1* Tribe ML (+122)

BiffTFinancial · 04-01-14, 08:52 AM

Passing on Brewers, like em but like under better.

Probably passing on Phils/Rangers under after yesterday's offensive explosion plus fact that I don't entirely trust AJ Burnett (motivation) and Eddings (weird form late last year). Maybe Phil's TT under worth a look.

Model doesn't love Jays/Rays under as much as I expected. Will have to put in more work on that one.

Definitely still lean M's.

Hope to put in more work on M's, Trop under, Phils TT under this afternoon.

good stuff here. thought you dodged a bullet with the indians though lol, I would have went heavy on Oak (kazmir) over Cle (kluber) for several reasons

I hear you. There are certainly arguments to be made for taking Kaz over Kluber (i.e., who has advantage when player goes against his former team - former player or former team?). Not sure that I will be playing Tribe today. Doubleheaders are great for watching, but more difficult for capping purposes - more statistically unpredictable, esp when playing second game in DH as first game impacts second game. Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts, particularly when they do not agree with mine. This is not an echo chamber.

STF, without having run the numbers yet, i doubt that model will like Twins/CWS over. Iassogna is behind the plate and he is one of my top under umps. I pretty much never play an over with one of those guys (and pretty much never play an under with one of my top over guys).

Davidson behind plate in Cubs/Rats, Fagan for WAS/NYM. Neither of those guys lean hard either way in my book. Also, to be clear, my ump factors will change over the course of the season (guys sometimes adjust their zones year-to-year), so I'll be tracking all umps as we go and guys can move around. That said, Iassogna has been a pretty consistent under guy for some time.

BiffTFinancial · 04-02-14, 06:00 AM

Assuming that roof is open in Arizona, will strongly consider the over there.
