I took ML parlay Sox/Marlins +165. GL guys!

Both Ortiz and Braun out, but have to like Sox options to replace Papi much better than Brewers options to replace Braun. Actually considered under there. BOL, Madison, hope you hit!

**BiffTFinancial** · 04-05-14, 04:28 PM

Still pondering Rangers/Rays over, wish it would go to 7 already, but i suppose that's not a terrible sign...

Gonna get a start on tomorrow's card before Final Four start. Some nice ump names up tomorrow: Iassogna, Eddings (day game!), Gooch, Kulpa, Danley, Cuzzi, Gibson, Davidson. If weather decent and likelihood of rain-outs looks low, could be a good day to try Salami under.

Most important aspect to MLB capping, i say, at least for totals. I'd rather watch a game with a gun in my mouth than have an under with McClelland behind the plate or a day game over with Eddings behind the plate/any over with Iassogna calling balls and strikes.

I get it, why I usually ask. Just to old.

**2daBank** · 04-05-14, 05:12 PM

I swear I'm gonna start paying attention to umps this week! Honestly didn't check 1 on any total I played and been fairing well but I know it not wise..

**msads** · 04-05-14, 05:39 PM

good luck

**BiffTFinancial** · 04-06-14, 06:50 AM

Taking an initial run at all games through model, i get 109 runs. When you add up all of the current totals, you get around 116.5. Grand Salami under should be in play, particularly when you consider the likelihood that Sunday lineups will lead to a few players getting a day off (although i'm guessing that David Ortiz will make his return to glory today after last night's much-needed respite). I'm guessing Salami opens at 115 or 115'.

Oops, found an error: make that 112 after initial run through model. That makes a difference. Hmmm...

**BiffTFinancial** · 04-06-14, 07:37 AM

Weird that i started the day thinking that i'd likely be playing 4-5 unders and nothing else and ended up with the card that i did. My other favorite totals were NYY/TOR under, SEA/OAK under and MIL/BOS under. Passed on the first two because of excessive juice and i already have two high-juice totals that i like much better than those. Passed on MIL/BOS under because of weather (stiff breeze out to right) and the fact that i liked under a lot there last night and concerned that i might not have a good on those two teams at the moment.

Liked over in LAA/HOU, but weather there likely will keep roof closed, which would take it from being a solid play to being borderline. Lean under in SD/MIA, but roof should be open there and same thing - takes it from solid under to borderline. Normally like playing Iassogna unders (he's working PHI/CHC) but under for day game at Wrigley with breeze blowing out is always risky.

Still may consider Grand Salami under depending upon where it opens. Upon closer review, i have around 110-111 runs today, so if Salami in upper teens, may play it, but probably pass at around 115. It is worth noting that weather today is relatively agreeable for Salami under.

**Razorbacks1** · 04-06-14, 07:43 AM

Good morning Biff. With you on two..St.Louis (gotta like Wainwright vs Volquez), and Tampa.Cobb bounces back. Three more that i like
Miami with Eovaldi, Toronto (CC auto fade) and Philly with Burnett
Liking the Giants again for tonight. Not sure if I can trust Cain though
BOL today. Your season is off to a great start.

Morning, Razorbacks. I do lean Miami, just liked under better there and decided to pass altogether. Tend to agree with Jays, and Jays play would agree with my strong under lean there. Just surprised how bad CC looked in first start (one of the things that helped me talk myself out of under). I actually lean Cubs FF ML (Villanueva was great to me FF last year) but no way can i talk you out of Phils. The Cubs are the Cubs, and unfortunately for my friends who are Cubs fans, apparently always will be.

BOL today!

Grand salami is total number of runs in all games (also used in hockey for total number of goals scored on the day). Grand salami under is under that total.

Exceptional work pal!! Bad day in Madisonville yesterday. Ended up netting .5 unit loss but missed opp's off the charts.

Ortiz sets MLB mark...

We have Ripken at God knows 15 seasons and 2100+ games and then ...

SHORTEST stint without a legit excuse in MLB history. New record at (4). Athletes is a misnomer.

Gone longer than expected then got caught up watching that shitstorm of a ballgame at Jacob's Field. Will take a close look at Giants/Dodgers now.

Grady Sizemore played more consecutive games (5) to start the season before getting a day off than Ortiz (4). What kind of odds could I have gotten on that at 5Dimes preseason?

Bank, i like Giants/Dodgers under, get under 6 runs there. Greinke owns the Giants lineup, though obviously small sample size. Current line is under 6' +115 or under 7 -122. Might be worth considering Dodgers ML/Under 7 parlay, which pays +209. Then again, i'm 0-3 on parlays so far this season...
