Is it possible that the hot sauce on Strasburg's nads could be a slump buster??

5* = 1 unit or 5 units?
10* = 2 units or 10 units
25* = Bet the farm?

Just to clarify. Never bet the farm. But luminosity is right each * represents one unit of dough. So, 100 bucks per star is 500, 1000, and 2500 respectively. 20*plays perform very well in all sports but cannot by themselves be expected to win every single time. It is the combination of all wagers that make the methodology successful despite our poor results to date I expect the end of the season to show significant gains

[John Ryan]

Cole Hamels is off to a five and one start to the season with a 2.28 ERA. In his seven starts the team record is six and one and has recorded 49 strikeouts in 47 1/3 innings of work.

[John Ryan]

He is also 3-0 team record and 2-0 team record in his last three starts with a 1.7 ERA in a 1.048 whip. Like the Phillies to continue their winning ways. They are a strong team and was only matter of time until they started to blend and win games. Hamels is a perfect 3-0 his career against Boston with a 1.44 Era 0.88 whip. He is 27 and six in his career in the month of May.

[John Ryan]

For Friday night we're going to St. Louis Cardinals they are listed at -123 as they take on the Dodgers in Los Angeles. This is a five-star rated play and part of the contrarian method. Supporting this Graded play is a system that has gone 101 and 87 over the last five seasons for 54% winners but has made 57.2 units per one unit wagered. Simply play agaist all home teams after having won six or seven of their last eight games ans is a team winning 62% or more their games on the season. Further supporting this play is a game situation showing that the Cardinals are 20-9 against the money line in road games when facing a starting pitcher who gives up an average of 5 1/2 or fewer hits per start over the last two seasons.

[John Ryan]

I also like a 10*play on the Toronto Blue Jays as they take on the New York Mets set to start at 7:05 PM. this plays reinforced by a system that is gone 90-27 since 2006 for 77% winners. Play on home favorites using the money line ranging between -125 to -175 as a good fielding team turning 1.1 or more double plays per game on the season and is now facing a struggling power team averaging 0.75 or less homeruns per game on the season.

[John Ryan]

5 star philadelphia with Hamels -150 playing Boston. Research is on the site.

5* Anaheim with Weaver over San Diego.. -163 research on the site. BOL.

[John Ryan]

5* graded play on the Reds as they take on the NY Yankees set to start at 1:05 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that the Reds will win this game. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 30-12 for 71.4% winners since 1997. Play on any team that is a very bad NL offensive team scoring fewer than 3.8 runs per game and is now facing a team with a very good bullpen posting an ERA <=3.33 and after two straight losses by four runs or more. Reds are a solid 33-19 (+17.7 Units) against the money line in road games after a loss over the last 2 seasons. Yankees have never faced Homer Bailey and he is coming off a strong start allowing just one earned run in 6 ⅔ innings of work in a 3-1 win at Atlanta. Nova struggled big time in his last start and his command has been quite poor - not something corrected in five days of bullpen sessions. Take the Reds.

Reds +138 5* Titan

5 star washington with Strasburg boxed -144
5 star Cardinals -119. In the article written Friday, I stated that Wainwright would be pitching. That has changed to Loshe and this is still a valid play on the Cardinals.

No plays for today? Looks like it couldn't possibly get any worse so I'm gonna start tailing a few plays for the next while. See how it goes..

[Luminosity]

check 20 minutes before the games start. His plays will be up if he has any.

[John Ryan]

The Cubs have fallen apart and are mired in the basement of the NL Central standings and have lost six straight games. Sunday, they were shutout by Jake Peavy and the CWS 6-0. However, this is more times than not, the optimal time to get on a ‘ugly’ team that is facing a team that has largely outperformed over the past several weeks. Houston is five games under. 500, but that is far better than even the most optimistic preseason projections. The Cubs are also sending a strong starter to the bump in Matt Garza, who has posted a 2.58 ERA with a 1.037 WHIP in seven starts this season. He has recorded 41 strikeouts in these seven starts spanning 45 ⅓ innings of work. Bus Norris pitching his best baseball of his career, but why then is the line a near pick-em one. he has posted a 0.45 ERA and a 0.842 WHIP over his last three starts and posted a perfect 3-0 record, BUT the line this skinny and the public is betting Houston.


Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 43-17 for 72% winners since 2006. Play against NL home teams when the money line is +125 to -125 and is a struggling offensive team scoring <=4.1 runs per game and with a very good bullpen whose ERA is 3.33 or better on the season and is now facing a good starting pitcher posting an ERA of 3.70 or less on the season. Take the Cubs for a 5* graded play. This is also a Contrarian Play.

5* using Anaheim -1 1/2 plus 156 on the Run Line when they take on Oakland.
5* Boston - from Contrarian article to play against Hunter and the Orioles -110
5* Seattle +135 playing Texas.
5* UNDER REDS/Braves 9 -115

Bottom line still looks poor, but I believed we were at -175 units at one point so the last week top 10 days has been solid and if you did tail me last night you made a ton. Way to go.
