    2nd half thread

    I am going to start a thread and actually stick with it for the second half instead of posting my thoughts in everyone elses threads...

    My new strategy which has been working pretty well lately is to go through the entire days card and ELIMINATE the games I know I do not like and then see what I have left. This is helped in reducing my number of bets a day (3-4 average) compared to 6-8 that I used to play.

    I have eliminated Phils/Cubs, CWS/TB, and Hous/St Louis so far... Working on the rest, as always any CONSTRUCTIVE thoughts are always welcome...

    Ok here are the matchups I eliminated:

    NYM/Nats
    CHIC/Phils
    StL/hous
    FL/SD
    Balt/NYY (actually think Balt has a chance...)
    TB/CHIW
    MINN/Oak (Minny plays terrible on Mondays AND they are on the road after a 12 inning game in hot ass Texas at night...)

    Braves Giants may pull the upset

    -$336 on the night in posted plays, also took "yes" for first inning score for dodgers game for $50 and over first 5 for $100.

    I am sick about Minnesota... Not only did it cost me $366 it cost my a 3 teamer for roughly $250.

    Unreal... Oh well no time to wallow in my misery, I already broke my computer chair so now its back to work...

    With you on the Brew Crew and Angels. No action for me on Philly, Houston, Boston, Rays and Yanks.

    Mets/Nationals - Two double A teams with Wild Thing Perez on the mound with the "ace" of the Nats throwing. I would have to take the Mets on principle alone but I just can't play a game this series.

    Cubs/Philly - Harden is a beast on the road going 4-1 with a 2.17 ERA in 6 starts. The Phillies have won 9 games in a row. The Phillies have a good shot but don't like the matchup and the Phillies are bound to lose a game shortly. Don't trust the Cubbies offense though so no play for me.

    Cardinals/Astros - Can Wandy stay this hot? Don't know and with Mr. Inconsistanct starting for the Cards I just don't have a good feeling about this one.

    Red Sox/Rangers - I do like the Red Sox but with a line in the -160's it's a little to rich for my blood. The Red Sox offense has been in a bit of a funk and for some reason they seem to struggle against rookie pitchers. I think the Sox win but no play becuase of the high line. Beckett is a beast though.

    Yankees - I rarely play them. Their my team and I only play them when I feel it's a no brainer. The O's can hit and with Mitre on the mound the Yanks could lose this game, especially since their bats have been cold. They did light up Hill earlier this year but with a line in the -170's no action for me.

    Houston is the strongest play on the board. Wandy kills the cardinals.
