You know what, you are right. I am going to let it ride and if people don't want to post in here, so be it. The rest of us can continue on, and if folks drop out, who cares.

Keep it going Mag. This and the parlay thread are my favourite on SBR

**eddycash** · 04-15-15, 04:13 PM

I was just worried about the poor bettors looking for winners while chasing too many. I will still post 1dog each day for this thread, and that dog will be my real bet also. Today i got the rockies +110

**BeanTownClown88** · 04-15-15, 04:43 PM

Why oh Why are the Reds this heavily dogged? And line is moving towards Cubs.
What am I missing?

**eddycash** · 04-15-15, 05:00 PM

That guy Gibson has a great record against them. I am not a Twins fan, well this year so far, but stat's don't lie. BOL to you men.

Baseball = groundhog day when it comes to some of these cats. Same guys fvcking up every year, over and over again. Rodney certainly qualifies.

Just because you post a dog doesn't mean you are betting them.
Let's not make it too complicated.
Mag chose to post records and that's fine
...he doesn't even have to do that - simply writing 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place is enough. Or posting the winners for the day.

Why would you post a dog that you wouldn't bet?

**pacocn** · 04-16-15, 12:24 AM

Mag nice thread

**pacocn** · 04-16-15, 12:25 AM

Lot of hands lighten the load I'll post my running tally with my dog of the day (dotd)

Milwaukee +135 would be my dog of the day for Thursday, but I also bet Phil +135 and Arizona +160.

i would never post a play i wasnt personally betting myself. that feels wrong on so many levels, mostly just weird you would even bother but also a little messed up imo. to each is own i guess..

That gut Gibson certainly has their number. Good job to the guys that took minny.

I couldn't disagree with you more if I tried. There are a number of excellent MLB cappers on this site and almost all of them will tell you that the reason they do so well and love betting MLB so much is because picking dogs is the easiest way to make money on this sport. Obviously you shouldn't be picking 6 or 7 dogs a day average but if you are doing your homework and identifying those couple of matchups each day where you are getting essentially a coin toss and the better pitcher at plus money you are probably gonna hit an average of somewhere around 50% and win the juice instead of paying it to the book. When you look at that over 300-400 plays in a season at an average of +120 odds then you are talking around a 40 unit profit.

Don't believe me? Take a look at the history of NoCoin's MLB threads over the last 3 seasons. Almost all dogs played and showing a profit of 80+ units for each of those seasons. We are talking about a profit of around 250 units over 3 seasons. Mitch51 is also hosting a dogs only thread and is currently sitting at about +3 units 2 weeks into the season. Doesn't look like much now but take a look at a 1.5 unit average per week multiplied by what 26 weeks in the season? Again you are looking at a pace of about 35-40 units profit come October. Most people once they try sticking mostly to dogs in MLB will never go back to laying that -170 on Clayton Kershaw.

yeah, LT said the same thing. That is a shit load of work!!! LOL. When they have contests @ SBR I sometimes join them, BUT, their computer does all work for them in the standings. I would have to do this all by hand everyday, no chance of that. If you guys want to POST your own + - units that's fine. Other than that, I don't know what else to say. We can simply drop thread, was trying to have some fun, and a few guys asked me to start this again this year, so I did. But I am no computer. LOL. Whatever you guys want to do. JUST DUMP THE THREAD.

Hoping you stick with this thread Mag. As one of the initial people who asked you to do this again this year I think that the people who understand the value of playing dogs in MLB will stick around and the ones who don't like are not obligated to be here. I also think seeing as how its your thread, you set the guidelines of what you think will work best and is easiest for you and everyone else will just need to accept that. I certainly appreciate your efforts for this thread as I am sure a lot of others do as well. Its meant to be fun and show how profitable dogs can be in MLB. I am certainly willing to track my own record if that makes it easier for you.

**LT Profits** · 04-16-15, 06:20 AM

3-1, +2.88

I will attach record to my picks going forward.

Twes, nice write up.

Quite a few fella's on here agreed to keep track of their units. It is a good idea by LT & Red Zone. It's just impossible for one guy to do it all. I am sure anyone in here will be accurate, why would anyone want to take their own credability away in front of everybody ??? They wouldn't. Thanks again men & BOL & continued success.

**LT Profits** · 04-16-15, 07:00 AM

Thursday:

Phillies +133 (Listing Hamels)

3-1, +2.88

**44 Mag** · 04-16-15, 07:11 AM

Thursday:

Milwaukee +140 @ 5 Dimes. Loss: -1.40 for today. Yikes. That's going to leave a mark.

3-1 +2.21.

**twestacott** · 04-16-15, 07:20 AM

Current record:
4-1, +2.32

Back later for a pick but currently leaning Phillies and Hamels. Might wait to see if Rays become a dog.

**44 Mag** · 04-16-15, 07:24 AM

It's a tight race so far.

I know you two guys will eventually be in the lead, as this is you forte. You have some competition with Mitch 51 & Red Zone, 2 da bank and several others. Me, not so much LOL. Keep up the good work.
