MLB '14 Picks by Meditations

[Meditations]

Went 3-2-? and +0.85 units. Though it really feels like 4-2 and +1.85 units considering I had the Over 7.5 in the Pits-Reds 7-7 game that was suspended after 6th... I'll hold off on counting that towards my record until I can find a definitive answer on standard Las Vegas rules for situations like that.

i usually put my bets in the night before too

really like strasburg and tanaka tomorrow. just put them in a parlay.

leaning..

Texas... seattles lineup vs's lefties just doesnt cut it for me. Ross Jr pitched two games well, shutting out boston for 5 innings. texas will either put up 1-2 runs or 6

dodgers..lincecum was my favorite pitcher for years and when theres a good hitting team he just doesnt have it anymore. love the dodgers lineup

pirates ML and +1.5 RL ....even though reds hit righties well i think Coles stuff will be in top form. pirates should be able to get enough runs off leake, who throws darts

Nice man, I'm with ya on Texas ML and Pirates ML. I also sort of like the Dodgers tomorrow and I think that that pick has some value, but I personally think that value is a little too marginal for my liking.

GL!

Lot of rooks throwing today. Will be interesting to see how many of them end up making team staffs in the long-term

Looks like it was a rough day today.. but I noticed with today you only have 3 losing days in the last 15. good job. What do you think for tomorrow?

Thanks and yes, 2-4 and -2.61 units today.

And guess it looks like the over/under 7.5 bet on the suspended Pirates-Reds game (4/14) was cancelled by most sportsbooks, despite it having gone over prior to the suspension/delay (7-7 when suspended). This is obviously nonsensical shenanigans on behalf of the sportsbooks, but what can I do? I will be chalking that game up as a push as far as my record in this thread is concerned.

Went 1-6 and -6.00 units yesterday.

Def absorbed a chunk of a hit, but such is variance; I can't say I'm at all surprised to have finally run into this kind of neg streak on one day over a 100+ picks sample size. Particularly brutal today was the +1.5 Houston and Under 9 on the same game, with a 4-4 score though 9 innings where extra innings was a ticket straight to Wreckville. No crying in baseball though, amirite? On we go...
