[MrMannix]

PIT would be a play but Starling Marte, paternity leave, is probably out for the series. Seeing as he bats in the middle of the order, leads the team in batting, & starts in LF, this is no play.

[MrMannix]

BAL, CHC, & CHW for tomorrow.

Still ended up playing Pittsburgh, thanks

How would Baltimore qualify? Their RPI is only .032 better than Seattle.

They are not today. Their RPI put them on the edge of a play yesterday but today's RPI #'s disqualify them.
You are correct, sir.

Me, too

No Boston today?

[JLaw]

Oh Nevermind RPI is .046 difference

[MrMannix]

No Boston today?

Just shy but I'm playing them anyway. They're bats have been on fire & Porcello has been pitching well.

[MoMoney2]

Sorry to have to ask this guys, but what difference in RPI rankings is needed to make an official play? I see that BAL and SEA have an RPI difference of .032 and I am trying to understand why this isn't a play? I looked back into the rules and didn't see anything about how the RPI difference makes a series a play or not.

Thanks in advance for anyone who can help me out!

Before the all star break:
Home team .042+
Away team .050+

The spreads on those games are getting goofier as the day goes on. White sox are now an underdog at +101 and Cubs dropped to -171.

Agreed. Got some RLM going on. Fishy.
When capping these games, I don't like CHW at all. Still like the Cubs though.
I'm glad I'm just tracking most of these plays & not blindly chasing. Tread lightly.

[JLaw]

Yeah I hear ya. Are you taking white sox +1.5 or just going ML? I figured parlay the Cubs and white sox and if I lose nail the hell out of the loser tomorrow. Pitching matchups look decent tomorrow.

[MrMannix]

I stayed away from the sox today but I'm on the Cubs.

[scavenginglocks]

I thought C bets was bet the exact same winnings on A Bets? Why to win 4.4 units on the CHW?

In the 1st post I said I was running it like a traditional chase. The systems write up suggests that you may want to have the C play equal the A to limit br damage on a C loss.
I am listing it as a chase to win 1 unit unit on 3 plays for tracking purposes only.
I wouldn't suggest blindly chasing these plays. I haven't been playing all of these games, only the ones I've capped & see a strong play. I.E.- stayed off of CHW last night cause I didn't like the matchup.

[scavenginglocks]

Thanks for the reply. I did see yesterday you skipped CHW. How do you feel about them today? Sale 8-0 and been great against Astros.

[MrMannix]

Possible play on PHI tomorrow.
The Cubs are right on the edge but doubtful.

Line is a bit juicy but can't go against Sale right now, especially after 2 losses.
These are teams going in opposite directions past week or 10 days, though.
I feel like HOU can turn it on here for a bit & get some value plays hopefully.

[MrMannix]

Got some RLM on the sox game. Down to -160 now.
Very fishy. Tread lightly.

[BigMattyIce]

Playing Blue Jays? They qualify against Twins.

They're below .500, on a 5 game losing streak, & 3-7 in their last 10.
