The New No Home Series Sweep Thread

[Cosmo213]

Officially we're using the ML for the first two games of a series to maintain a high win %. The RL is used only in the event of a game 3 to help keep the bet size under control.

But I really wish we used the -2.5 RL for Philly, they are sticking it to the Nats...

[jolmscheid]

Way to go PHILLIES! Yeah I agree with Cosmo...we will do the RL on the first two games, since that is where most of the wins come from, and then we will do the -1 RL on the third game?

[reverend]

For those interested, stingy has started his thread for his picks, and I have done the same for my picks. Looks like i will be off to a 4-0 start on the year. 96 more wins to go!

[Cosmo213]

Phillies crush Nats 11-1

White Sox beat Cleveland 6-0

2-0 today with 2 remaining.

[allison13]

Good start......lets keep it going

Ok so your not all doing the same picks? Seems like a missed a bunch of winners already but I'm just now finding this thread. What teams are left.....LAA?

Yes....LAA is a play tonight.

4/4 already on the season plus the Angels playing tonight. I'm scared of the Twins though.

4 wins already ... if your serious about this for the whole season, cancel. Not terrible on juice, but it's a decent amount and it's a grind.

Especially when you are 4-4, don't go with something that you don't feel confident in, especially chasing it. Just my .02

I agree. This is the first full day of baseball. If you're scared of a pick don't take it. There will be 2,410 more games to choose from after today.

[mncosoldier]

I would not play LAA at MIN,not very smart at all.

[HayMan]

Especially when they are at LAA, LOL.

As it is imperative to this system to pick the top teams and the bottom teams, i found the accuscore predicted win totals, and thought they could add some value in determining top and bottom teams. of course, this is not an end of itself, but just another tool to help us narrow it down.

the link: http://accuscore.com/mlb/tools/team-win-forecasts

Some thoughts:

Accuscore's Highest and Lowest projected win totals:

Highest:

Yankees 94.6
Phils 94
Cards 91.8
Boston 91.8
Rays 88.2
Minn 86.8 (I bet this was before Nathan was lost for the year though)
Colorado 85.8
WhiteSox 84.3
Angels 84.3

Lowest:

Toronto 67.7
Padres 68.1
Royals 69.3
Pitt 71
Cleveland 71.4
Houston 72
Mets 73.8
Wash 75.2

I like how this list goes along mostly with what we have been thinking. I did find it interesting in how low accuscore had the mets. And how high they had Wash.

[DuncHen22]

I got TB and MIL tomorrow. Thoughts?

[IWinMyBets]

TB is a lock for Tuesday
