    Mr Octobers 2020 MLB Season thread

    Well the time is near folks. I will have a write up on each team and leans/plays/suggestions on win totals, divisional futures, and futures. I did this last several years it has been very successful. Here is last years records which are all on the forum as well here. https://www.sportsbookreview.com/for...als-plays.html


    MLB 2019 Recap:
    MLB Regular Season 303-320 +9.79u
    Win totals: 13 wins and 4 losses for +11.55 units

    Divisional Futures for 2019 3-2 +6.65 units

    Playoff Record 17-21 -1.310u


    Grand Total of +26.68 units for the year!

    i have dug into a ton already and the previews will start flashing up here soon. I appreciate all the support and kind words the last few years. I take an excessive amount doing this. Last year went very well at a grand total of +26.68 units but honestly that was not my best year by any means the regular season was only +9 units which is my worst year in 5 years but I will never complain about a winning year in any sport ever. Looking forward to starting on the previews by taking my notes and trying to put them into some organized words. My Tweeter is @MrOctober444. I put this out bc sometimes it is easier to follow the plays if you turn on notifications rather than tirelessly checking the forum.

    I had all team previews up and was ready to post them but those were predicated on a 162 game season. So therefore the win total list will be much shorter with such higher variance. This is probably your best chance to throw as many long shots together for divisions, WS, MVP, Cy Young, etc. so without further rambling here you go with my favorite season win totals this year.

    Regular Season win totals:
    Red Sox Under 30.5 -106 (to win 3 units)
    Jays Over 27 Wins -115 (to win 1u)
    Indians Over 32.5 (-115) (to win 3 units)
    Athletics Over 33.5 (-110) ( to win 1 unit)
    Marlins under 24.5 Wins (-125) (to win 1 unit)
    Reds Over 31.5 Wins -125 (to win 3 units)
    Cubs Under 32.5 Wins -105 (to win 1 unit)
    Diamondbacks over 31.5 Wins +100 (to win 2 units)

    Those were all bet at books where they require 60 games to be played for action. I wouldnt suggest betting an over at anywhere that doesnt require 60 games to be played. I also was going to post the teams that i played to make the playoffs but those since have been taken down at most shops with the talk of the expansion.

    I won't count these on here but here is what i played and some were before the pandemic even hit. but just throwing these out there for people that maybe has a local or another book in case you are lucky

    to make the playoffs YES:
    Braves -110 (1u)
    Dbacks +225 (1u)
    Reds +180 (1u)
    Athletics +135 (1u)
    Jays +600 (0.5u)
    Royals +1600 (0.5u)

    Here are the divisional futures as well:

    AL East:
    Jays +3500 (0.5u) (would play to +2800)

    AL Central:
    Indians +300 (1u). (would play to +200)
    Royals +10000 (0.2u) (would play to +8000)

    AL West:
    Athletics +230 (1u)

    NL Central:
    Reds +350 (1u). (would play to +220)

    NL Wes:
    Dbacks +900 (0.5u) ( would play it to +800)


    I have nothing opening night. but stay tuned for friday. as we will be ready to rock and roll.

    Just clarification for the new people... a underdog bet is always risking the amount of units posted while a favorite is to win the amount of units posted


    Opening day 6 pack

    July 24:
    Braves +140 (risk 1u to win 1.4u)
    Brewers +100 (risking 1u)
    Pirates/cards under 4.5 first 5 (-125) (risk 1.25u to win 1u)

    Athletics -132 (risking 1.32 units to win 1u)
    Tribe/royals under 5 first 5 -105 (risking 1.05 to win 1u)
    Rays -130 (risk 1.3u to win 1u)

    Nationals -1.5 -105 (1u) yes I love the prospect Pearson but this is more of a mad max going deep into the game and getting to that -1.5 later. If you wanted to back the kid maybe first 5 +0.5 runs is the angle. I’m not sure I have value on the nationals -1.5 contrary to a lot of other people.
