    Had KC +1.5 last night but lost an very juicy OAK LIVE bet.

    It's close between Oakland and Atlanta but according to my records if you bet the same unit on OAK for every game this season you would be ahead about +19 units, depending on the exact line.

    This is the most profitable team in that fashion so far this season.

    Interestingly, doing the same bet for the Chicago White Sox for the whole season would put the bettor up about +3 units, a better number than bettors doing the same for Houston, Cleveland, and Tampa.

    The worst team for betting the same unit all season long is by far and away the Detroit Tigers. Being down about -32 units for the season, it's almost double the next worse teams of KC, Seattle and Miami.

    Wonder where those numbers were around the asb? I did great identifying twins as good from start of season, for a good while was getting plus money on them!! I’m sure they have dropped down the list significantly as they have prob been losing more games since books started lining them as favs!! Go figure. lol.

    For awhile I continued w them when they started being mid level favs but I often played the 1st 5 run line to eliminate the juice and avoid their pen!! I prob havnt bet them in at least a few weeks now if not more. I just havnt been following many teams once fb started which always the case as I prefer 1st half mlb for couple reasons plus I’m just burnt capping bases by this point! Lot of work! Lol

    Oakland has for years got the most out of their players verse the number of dollars they have spent.

    The Oakland dilemma is they are built for the regular season. Stars win in the playoffs and they don't have enough. I love their team but it's not getting past Houston and the Yankees. Minnesota has the same problem.

    Every player on the team is basically the same. I like them but they do this all the time.
