    Tonights bets Texas and Minnesota will win (June 6, 2013)

    Texas +141 Under 8.5 vs Boston (at Fenway)

    Since Holland (5-2, 2.81) allowed four runs in 4 2-3 innings of an 8-1 loss in his first start against Boston on June 6, 2009, he is 5-0 with a 1.73 ERA against the Red Sox. He's yielded a two-run homer and five other hits over 14 innings to win his last two at Fenway.



    Minnesota +128 Over 8.5 vs KC (At KC)

    Pelfrey pitches for the Twins with a 6.66 ERA and KC counters with Davis at 6.16 ERA
    This one is Going OVER.

    Why the Twins side? Just a hunch, no science there.



    Thoughts? Predictions?

    13 wins 5 Losses
    I had an incredible 6 team parlay last night that paid $23,215.72 on a $225 wager. (Cubs - over, D'Backs - over and Those Classy San Diego Padres - over)

    Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man. The Dude

    thanks much Thunderous. Texas leading 3-2 bottom of the 3rd. Need to calm down on the runs now. Looks like I might have been wrong on the totals.

    Good luck! I'm looking a little weak already on the under in Boston. Already 5 runs in the bottom of the 3rd.
    damn...

    I'll give you a piece of advice.
    Look for + money in games that are a coin toss.

    That is the secret to my success.

    This means go for the underdog in games too close to call?

    Yeah, if you think a team should be -110 and the book is offering +130, hit it.
    If you think a game should be +115 and the book is offering +138, hit it.
    I rarely lay more than 3:2, laying anything more than -150 is a recipe for disaster.

    agree...i bet the dogs and try to see where they might be better than the reports. I try to find a logical reason.

    Unlike tonights twins bet...but hey, they have a 3 run lead in the bottom of the 2nd. Lets keep those runs coming and please slow down in Boston!

    Not easy this one!

    3 - 3 in bottom of the ninth in Boston.. Boston wins on 3 run homer...

    just not meant to be...

    The Twins and KC are stalled at 3-3 ...

    I won my $300 bet playing black jack today, so no big loss...

    Record drops to 13 - 7 (pending outcome in KC...)

    Bad beat. MLB at its best. No one can predict it every day successfully.

    Damn right... Sorry to anyone who tailed me on this one.

    And my advice on the yankees over...shit...they got 4 runs in the 3rd! ended up under by .5 runs...

    just a horrible night...

    record drops to 13 - 9

    Somebody knew something as 98% of the betting public was on the NYY OVER and that 7.5 never moved.
