    Morning LT. I have been mentally dancing with this match-up last night and this morning (which I usually say forget it). What's your take on this game? I also was siding towards the Rockies because I think Gray has been a little more consistent as of late then Teheran.

    Where you seeing the advantage?

    Nice pitching advantage for Coiorado, Gray is 6th in the majors with his 3.09 xFIP, and since that comes with a 4.81 ERA, he remains underrated.

    Good Luck LT, nothing from the Fund, yet.

    I do see a couple of nice hits on Colorado, they look sharp.

    LT, are you being sharp again today?

    Just play the numbers LT......wait for Game 1 to finish, and take the team in Game 2 who lost Game 1. I think this trend has been in the neighborhood of 22-5 this season.

    would it matter if Jamie Moyer was still pitching (for the cards) and right-handed to boot vs the nationals tonight? -120 @ home rolling vs stork who has never done anything vs the cards? why is money coming in on stork? last few starts? seems crazy to me.

    Totally irrelevant, don't fall into that trap. Each game is its own entity.

    Even a good one there. I just saw this.

    LT sharp, I posted this running down the games...

    Cubc/Pitt...Like Pitt, and Under, would pay for 9. Yeah, that Under is nice, just out side of the target circle but I see a lot of sharp bets on the Under. Will track these plays and get an overall feel for that sharper contrarian market, and not just track the Fund.

    We track indices in stocks, and we track individual companies that shows us direction, same thing here...

    This year is an aberration, you are playing short term numbers.

    Over the long haul, it is a sweep.

    Be careful 8er.

    LT.....respect you brother, but have you seen Lester lately? I always hedge nice parlays, but I took TB and Cubs/Pitt Over and I'm letting it ride. Nova is trash too

    Uhhhh....you guys were on it. Lester was due. THats the good thing about playing a streak though.....you can win a bunch of times in a row and only lose once. Cubs with Lester had a total Over 8.5 in 8 of his last 9 starts coming in


    Super streakers:

    Roark going for 5 in a row tonite
    Wheeler with the Mets....they've won 7 straight starts of his

    It is insignificant, since 2005, backing Game 1 losers in Game 2 has gone 174-166 for just +0.53 units. It is not worth paying attention to, especially with relatively small sampling for baseball.

    Keep an eye on that Regul8er, you could be playing with fire as the season winds down.
