There is bad movement on the Buccos (Skenes) but no worries. If it goes down in flames so be it-the opportunity cost is well worth in terms of the type of investment it is. Collateral damage is fine when you buy anything of good quality at bargain basement prices and the investment doesn't pan out

Couple of 9th inning closer situations with Guardians and Rays here crushed my totals moves and sides...Yikes!

**atthehalf** · 07-06-25, 05:29 PM

Dang...my overall success took a shot at me. This is how i feel right about now

**atthehalf** · 07-06-25, 05:56 PM

I figure that the best way to mitigate the collateral damage is to utilize my positions that I already have by strengthening them. Those were some ugly late game losses

**atthehalf** · 07-06-25, 06:36 PM

Looking ahead to tomorrow the Wanderers are in a bad spot-even with deGrom on the bump vs the Halos. The Tigers are also in a bad spot too. deGrom's slider is going to cook the Halos earl until they get him out of the game tho. Kikuchi's strikeout ability is firing on all cylinders and it's the Wanderers. Runs will be at a premium

The Buccos have not scored a single run in 6 straight games. That's insane. It's like you want to load up against them but they are vulnerable and backed into a corner. It's a dangerous situation to bet against-I am leaving the Royals and Buccos alone tomorrow no matter how good they look and focusing in on the total.

The Royals are 25th in OPS vs lefties with a pedestrian .637 and an average of .240 with (get this) 167 K's in just 66 games. That's 39.5% of their batters are getting K'd up vs lefties. Not that Falter is a K specialist-and not that the Buccos ae hitting lefties well either with a .221 average. Looks like your classic under in the making.

As far as the Blunts/Giants game the Blunts will be tired somewhat from the change in time zones and the late night flight. Christopher Sanchez gets the Giants and their problems vs lefties. Roupp is becoming better at using his three main pitches in tandem and I trust him more than earlier in the year. He got squeezed last time out with a higher zone rate than strike rate on his sinker. You read that right. This one may end up being a fantastic OVER play given the Blunts travel issues with the startling fact that the Giants usually go OVER when they are a SHORT NUMBER underdog. I don't know why that is.

The Red Leggins are home and just got swept by the Blunts-the Fish are in the way. End of story

**atthehalf** · 07-06-25, 07:32 PM

Ok Cardinals-so this is how it's gonna be....

**atthehalf** · 07-07-25, 06:41 AM

Alright, alright-I will take the heat. Some of those early late inning losses definitely cut down on my overall production and then the losses kept happening. But no sweat. No stock that I have ever purchased had a steady climb without some days of going in the red-so MLB should be pretty much the same.

I didn't actually see a decent CRUMBS POD for today. Everyone is so expensive and out of the profile that I look for when selecting a proper streamer for a huge return-so I will find a bat along the way today to draft.

Back to the lab. I will be along throughout the day. My POSITIONS will be random today

**atthehalf** · 07-07-25, 08:46 AM

Colton Gordon is favored over Bibee? Wow. I know the Guardians have had their problems of late but this is a slap in their faces. Huge pitching disadvantage in this one

**atthehalf** · 07-07-25, 08:48 AM

I will be making my moves in the 3-4 PM time slot. Our runner is a little behind today, and based on using my app yesterday it's best to get it in this way because I also get tips on the wishes of the Hard Rock counter boys and where big bettors are placing their money

Rafael Devers (Giants) is 3-4 off of Christopher Sanchez (Blunts) with a triple in the mix; good for a .750 AVG, .750 OBP, 1.250 SLG and 2.000 OPS

**atthehalf** · 07-08-25, 02:58 PM

Cam Schlittler makes his MLB debut for the Bombers and I'd pick him up, if I were you though-because I did. Schlittler controls his secondaries well while sporting four-seamers upstairs at 97+ mph. He could find himself with a lot of volume in a wounded Yankee rotation and be a major pick up for the second half. And BTW obviously he has 0% rostership. This would make for a sneaky big payday tomorrow if I featured him-but I didn't. There's no telling how long of a leash he may have

CRUMBS POD for Wednesday Brandon Walter (Astronauts) with a crisp 13% rostership. Walter has a solid arsenal and faces a mid Guardians team.

Just absorb the Cubs loss today. Don't bet out of it. It's part of the bigger picture. Collateral damage happens when you bet the board Billy Walters style

**atthehalf** · 07-09-25, 08:16 PM

Once the Cubs lose this one today get ready to drop a 5 UNIT move on Rea for tomorrow. We're not paying any vigorous for today's loss so it's smart mathematically to secure the strong possibility of a good gross gain tomorrow if that makes sense to you

**atthehalf** · 07-09-25, 09:49 PM

Our runner just came around at 10:00 to snatch up moving money for tomorrow because he has some domestics to handle Thursday-no seat. I already know what I want

Lord...every time the Halos get the lead the bullpen gives it back. This is your typical go to bed and pray for the best type of game. The quality of the bullpens is reflected in the team's records
