    Thanks Haren, Trout, Pujols...and the LA Angels

    Placed my largest wager on them ever at +115 last night, and the game was rarely ever in question.

    Now I am able to make a sizeable withdraw for the 2nd straight week.....YEAHH.

    After 5 years of this, I am just about even in the game. It feels like I've had wayy more downs then ups......but when you win the bigger ones, it makes up for it.

    Im usually in the $75-$125 range......and I went way way above that.....way above.

    History didn't bode well for Haren against the Rangers lineup, but the Rangers have been struggling, and those numbers usually even themselves out over time.

    Plus Harrison has been nasty, but righties have hit .290 off him this year, and the Angels didn't have 1 lefty in the lineup. Seemed like a good place to take a shot. I had a good week already, so I figured why not.

    Will be back down to betting normal units tonight.

    This is solid handicapping right here.

    As silly as it may seem, I have vowed to not post my picks on sbr.

    Call it a jinx or whatever you may, but my posting record is atrocious. I started a thread a few weeks ago, and lost the only 4 games I posted. Since then I've hit 68% with an average line of -112 over 41 plays.

    I post every play, considering stopping.
    Just too many a-holes.

    YA.....I just had a feel, and was surprised at the line.
    I was expecting it to be -105/-105, especially with how cold the Rangers bats have been.

    I guess Haren was the unknown factor, as he hadn't pitched in a few weeks.

    Going to take it easy with 2 games tonight
