So, the Pirates lost 33 straight games against teams with a winning record, and then win two in a row against the Phillies?

Red Sox Fav of the day again

**Betting Guru** · 07-03-10, 09:13 AM

Unbelievable with the Pirates!

**df1000** · 07-03-10, 09:44 AM

the only thing the phillies have proven to me is that they are a minor league team masquerading as a big league team. go cinncy.

**JVP3122** · 07-03-10, 09:57 AM

Ok, so I'm going to catch some flack for this, but it's what I'm playing so I need to post it. Considering the Phils couldn't score more than two runs in the first two games I'm jumping ship. I'm going to place the C bet on a different play. You'll see it along with the B bet on the Angels.

LAA (-175) - Risking 4.64 units to win 2.65 units
STL -1 (-149) - Risking 10.83 units to win 7.27 units

today gentlemen.

I agree...the Phillies are much like the Cubs...weird and scary to bet on...

You will not hear it from me

no point going down on what appears to be a sinking ship

of course if your luck is like mine the Phils will win by 10 today

BOL

**JVP3122** · 07-03-10, 06:41 PM

Unbelievable. The Cards have bases loaded with no outs in the bottom of the third and can't get anyone across. It just might be that kind of night.

**diegoelmestre** · 07-03-10, 11:02 PM

NYY and Red Sox opened both at -210... how we do in this situations? choose one?

Some guys take the over under run line and bet the highest one...so in this case it's 9 for the Yanks and 9 1/2 for the Sox....so you might take the Sox...to me this is too close to call doing it that way in this particular situation.

Personally, I also look at the dog's road record since both dogs are on the road and choose the one with the worst record as the game to bet on..in this case...I will go with Baltimore because they have the worst record on the road in all of baseball...they are currently 8-31 while Toronto is 21-24...if it is too close to call in some cases by looking at the records I may just go with my gut......or you can flip a coin or use some other method to break the tie...in the end it's still gambling and anything can happen...but this is just my method...there are others who post on this thread that are more knowledgeable than I am and they may have some better suggestions for you...

I hope this helped!!...good luck.....

**balls2wall** · 07-04-10, 09:05 AM

my initial lean is to BOS

like nasty was saying, you have to go against BAL when choosing to go against them or TOR

if someone wants to lobby for NYY feel free

right now it is looking like BOS...

**DustyDiamond** · 07-04-10, 09:33 AM

we looking at Boston as the official play?

**balls2wall** · 07-04-10, 09:41 AM

looking that way Dusty

could go with yanks, but liking BOS better

**balls2wall** · 07-04-10, 09:43 AM

**DustyDiamond** · 07-04-10, 09:45 AM

I'm going to go with Boston, I'd rather the be playing against Balt, then Toronto. For those of you that pick NYY GL and lets hope for a win all around.

COL under 8

5 straight overs

41% over team should have 6 max overs on most occasions

chasing COL for 4 or 5 games for a half unit

went one past the usual max with 7 overs

won on 3rd game

**balls2wall** · 07-05-10, 08:55 AM

Monday FAV System Play

B Bet: SEA -1rl (-138) risking 3.56 units to win 2.57 units (1 unit profit)

**DustyDiamond** · 07-05-10, 09:14 AM

I can't believe Seattle is the favorite today. Team is playing under .500 ball

Slim pickings when they make Sea the top fav of the day.

**balls2wall** · 07-05-10, 09:29 AM

at least they have the pitching edge and are playing an equally bad team at home

I felt the same way when the cubs and nats came up a few times

at least it's keeping the juice relatively low

**diegoelmestre** · 07-05-10, 09:51 AM

bahh.. seattle as favorite of the day... dont feel much confident :S

**df1000** · 07-05-10, 10:49 AM

if you want a juicy dog today, cleveland might be just what you are looking for i think.

**df1000** · 07-05-10, 10:51 AM

i also like the cubs game to be an over

**balls2wall** · 07-05-10, 11:34 AM

thanks df

good luck if you play those

**PALLETIZE** · 07-05-10, 11:40 AM

Convert Run Line from -1.5 to -1.0

I know that this question has been asked before but is there an easy spreadsheet to use for this? The ones that I have tried seem to be a little complicated to me.

Agreed...I am more comfortable betting Tex over Clev than I am taking Sea.

**DustyDiamond** · 07-06-10, 04:44 AM

Looks to be Tex today

**diegoelmestre** · 07-06-10, 07:21 AM

Texas hope win easy... but if exist team that can surprise another, are Indians
