    False.

    I'm anxious to see how Albert does in California, I pumped to watch Pineda in pin stripes and curious to see if he can win say 16 games.

    I'll watch the Mets and root for them to lose because the Mets losing is almost as good as the Yankees winning.

    Can Kershaw pitch lights out again?
    Which of the kiddie phenoms will have a break out season?

    Interested in seeing if the Jose and Han-Ram thing works out.

    I think the KC Royals might sneak a wild card this season, let's see how that plays out.

    Will Josh Hamilton and Braun take the abuse from the fans well when they go on the road?

    Tons of side stories.

    Two words I never get tired of hearing.

    The umpire barking out "play ball !"

    Baseball cant get here fast enough. Day games, that great mlb package where you can watch games online in great quality. I miss just looking over stats for baseball, its going to take every ounce of effort not to wager alot on spring training.

    MLB network is outstanding, Millar is both knowledgeable and amusing, their coverage is all killer, none of that ESPN schtick.
    And I can look at these gams all day too.

    I love when guys cant wait for a sport and say they kill it

    Its streaky, maybe you did well last year but everything turns

    some years you win in football, some you lose, baskets, ect

    all percentages

    If bases was so easy no one would work

    Quick question, if I recall correctly, just about every MLB line was -/+ 1.5. If that's the case, wouldn't a shortened Martingale system work if you're betting with a strong team (Red Sox, Yanks, Angels ect) against a weak team? Obviously you would base it on matchups, but that seems rather easy right?

    Yanks had a 17 game stretch last season where they either lost, or won by at least 2 runs.

    Is that something along the lines of JJ's system?

    they offer the -1.5 and +1.5 for every game, but most bet the Moneylines. Like -170 and above is a big fav. Mostly until the end of the year you don't see anything beyond -290 favs or +270 dogs. You can also bet the underdog on the alt lines of -2.5 or +2.5 as well as the fave with all the different juices at many books

    I really love the game of baseball and it's not just the betting of it. For me its the sport I enjoy most, I like games that are 2-1,3-2....ect. rather than a game with many runs and do not like DH in the AL.As Dick Allen (ex. Phillies 1st baseman) would say " if cows cant eat it I don't want to play on it." What a great sport.!!!

    Out of 4 years, 1 was profitable for me. The other 3 were disasters. Last year was profitable. Not by much. I bet almost everyday on baseball games. Averaging about 2-3 games a day at about, $500-$800 a pop. I was proud of myself that I actually lasted all year.
