That could be possible but I really like the Mets to win by 2 or more here. In their 7 games in 2008, the Mets went 4-3. Not 1 of those 7 games were decided by one run and all but 1 of those games totaled 8 runs or more. I don't see the trap here as Santana has been solid throughout the spring and is obviously one of the best starters in baseball. I think Harang's off season weight loss is being blown out of proportion as he struggled through spring with a line eerily similar to his below average 2008 season. I like the Reds this year and think they out perform some expectations but I don't see them taking down the Mets today.

Tough break on the run line. The Mets had a ton of chances to break the game wide open and failed each and every time. David Wright was thrown out at home on a terrible decision by the 3rd base coach which eliminated a possible huge inning. Oh well...it's a long season.
Lets go PIT!Comment -

padres offense sucks ass, wow words cant describe...Comment -
Yeah, I know they're terrible but I expected Peavy to dominate this game.Originally posted by Kav
2 mistakes today:
1. Betting an over on the CIN/NYM game before checking the weather...won't happen again
2. Betting a run line with the Padres...especially when they're the home team and would have 8 at bats compared to the road team's 9.
I was excited for the season to start and looked at what I thought was everything but left those two important details out. I guess hindsight is always 20/20. The season is long and bad breaks and a few bad picks will happen.Comment -

I love the splits on this one. Bedard could come out and dominate like he used to but he didn't during spring training and said he felt great. Minnesota gets some revenge here and takes SEA down.
FLA RL -1.5 +135 - 1.5 units
I like FLA this year and think they're going to be undervalued early this year. Olsen, who was hated by his former team, is throwing and I can see the Marlins jumping on him early.
So a list of plays for tonight currently:

MIL/SF 7R over -120 - 2 units
FLA RL -1.5 +135 - 1.5 units
MIN ML -112 - 1 unit

Last night went 5-1 on plays, 0-1 on my first parlay...solid night. Had ARI won, I would have run the board with a 7-0 night...stupid Diamondbacks.Comment -

Marlins win on a close one. I'll take it but I was pretty sure they Marlins were going to blow my 2 unit RL pick. Either way, I'll take the win

Decent night at best currently. I really thought strongly on a couple of teams but I'm pleased that 3 of my 4 dog picks won. I guess we'll see on LAA and MIL, both look good currently. I'll post my record sometime tomorrow morning with some possible leans for tomorrow.Comment -
Looks like I went 4-4 yesterday for +.86 units...not a good day but I'll never complain about a positive unit day. I had a couple of tough breaks in the Minnesota game with them winning by 1 when I had the run line. The Angels game was ugly with Fuentes blowing the save. With them giving up 6 runs in the last two innings, the loss is hard to take.

MIN ML, BOS ML, NYY ML, STL RL, LAD ML, MIL ML
1 unit to win 28.52 unitsComment -
This could be a rough day...apparently Jarrod Washburn is now trying to be Sandy Koufax by shutting out the Twins. Carpenter was no hitting the Pirates and still losing 1-0. Tampa Bay/Bos have put up 4 runs through 5, so this one is going to be close. BAL is playing NY tight...crossing my fingers. Really I'll be stoked if i go 2-2 today after the start of these games.Comment -

Nice to see you doing well here D. Keep it up. Love the KC pick, by the way. One of my favorites today as well. BOL.Comment -
Thanks. This is really my first season betting on sports. I've dabbled here and there in college but have always loved baseball and have really taken a strong interest in all of the intricacies of sports betting. I'm hoping it continues to go well. I started a blog to track my plays, comments, reasoning, etc. as it seems some of my friends are getting into it as well and find it pretty interesting.Originally posted by jellobiafra
It seems that my parlay lost immediately with the CHW/DET game going well over...Oh well, I'm keeping track of those seperately to see if I can make them profitable throughout the season.Comment -
I had a nice start with the White Sox win and what appears to be a Philly win but my big underdog in SF will not be coming through tonight...what a terrible start to that game. Oh well, 2-1 isn't terrible considering they were my two largest plays of the night.Comment
