crappy on the push, but still good overall. I try to stay away from team totals when they hit 5, unless it's a really hot team against and awful pitcher.

well played

Thanks

Good Luck to you!

4 is OK. if they only score 4 it's a push, at least. 3 or less and both would lose anyways.

Here's to a good day

[dynamitappletini]

Was right on all but 1 game yesterday (including one that I didn't bet)... but did not choose unit distribution wisely. Could have been a big day.

Milwaukee (Wolf) -1.5 -110 15u
New York (A) (Hughes) -1.5 -103 3u
Kansas City (Greinke) -1.5 +119 2u
Philadelphia (Moyer) at San Francisco (Wellemeyer) Over 9.5 +100 2u
St. Louis (Carpenter) -1.5 +130 1u

If I ever had something similar to what some call a "play of the year", it would be Milwaukee today...

Mil owns Pit -- the streak speaks for itself
Pit is hitting poorly
Mil is hitting lights out
Pit is calling up Karsten from AAA
Mil has Wolf on the mound
Mil at home

I don't see how Pit even stands a chance. I only wish my book had -2.5 run lines.

Nice going man! The Phillies win would have been to good to be true though
Looking forward to your picks!

[dynamitappletini]

Wow whole lotta units on Mil
I'm probably going -1.5 with 10 units and -2.5 with 5... will think about it
Thanks for the plays anyways

ya, it's a lot of eggs in one basket, that's for sure.

Just make sure you are playing unit sizes that you're comfortable with.

For me, one unit is about 1% of my bankroll, so I end up risking around 20% on any given day... which is suicide in the long run (and I wouldn't recommend it if you're not willing to lose it all), but it works for me in MLB only. NBA/NHL, I wouldn't even dare.

Cheers

[TheCommish]

Oh, and thanks for the points, but they aren't necessary. I"m just doing this for fun, and it's a good place to keep track of things while I"m browsing the site anyways.

Cheers

[dynamitappletini]

sure I just think it's a nice gesture for your efforts... don't know what to do with them anyways...
Yeah my unit size is about less then 2%, 5€ to be accurate not to much but I just started out and a big loss is always hard
Let's just hope they'll kick it !

[TheCommish]

Just grabbed LAD in the middle of the 2nd inning -- Santana is up to 49 pitches. He won't last more than 5 innings at that pace and that's good for LA -- love it at +125.

Los Angeles (N) (Kuroda) +125 1u
