    I am oh so patiently waiting for the Nats to get ahold of a lefty and the wonderful prospect of taking their team total to go over...

    Baseball betting is all about knowing when to make a move with alacrity.

    We are all gonna inevitably be around .500 at the end of the year especially with relievers doing what relievers do. Case and point, I saw the manager of the Twins last night call on a pitcher out of the bullpen who had a 10.80 ERA for his team as they were making their comeback. I already knew it was time to turn the channel.

    I pulled the trigger on the Snakes again today even after they demolished the Giants 17-1 last night on the highway. They may fall flat today. It's just the way it is-even if they do have the superior arm on the hill today.

    This thing is designed for you to fail gentlemen. So have fun and slow cook a brisket today and drink as many beers as you can stand. Try to sneak in a quickie with the Missus. Your money is at the risk LOL!

    Ok so in between beers here and looking ahead to tomorrow, I won't be making moves in this format on my top 3 Nola. Kirby, Javier because they will be far out of what I am willing to risk for juice. #4 through 15 looks clean to select from-especially the Fish with Cabrera#10 more than likely getting serious crumbs with the Cubs and Hendricks#28 on the bump.

    I am going to blast away on Montas (Red Leggins) as he is the middling guy who no one wants to talk to in the clubhouse but is good enough to give good innings against lesser lineups. He's probably super boring..

    Hopefully Lodolo will be in for the Red Leggins. I do like that breaker he was throwing in his last start and on top of that there will be crumbs attached! What a great time to be alive.

    So Verlander walks in from off the street after throwing 77 rehab pitches against my quality start stud..ok

    Rolling with the Bombers and Twins on the RL which isn't available yet

    Anyway here are my positions I have taken for tomorrow

    Rot.#903 Brews-124 Peralta#1 3 UNITS
    Rot.#919 Pale Hose+145 Crochet#5
    Rot.#924 Nats+152 Gore#14

    Is that Warren Cromartie of the Expos in that pic? By the way, great thread. Will be paying attention

    You seem to have a pretty good command of this sport. Despite the reduced vig, it’s not that easy to beat anymore. I know a lot of people that used to beat it that don’t anymore, myself included. Wishing you continued success going forward.

    Thanks Maizey. It's all about the financials now. Like would you rather take a -180 loss or just take the RL at +120 instead and if it looses you only go down one unit compared to basically losing two games in one. Having a background in making fantasy league moves helps too because I rate pitchers each and every single day for roster purposes. you get to know what the pitcher is throwing that the other team doesn't fare well against, etc. I find two guys who are top 10 and facing one another then I will go the FF under. I find two DNS guys facing one another I go OVER FF while they are still going to be a part of the event. When I know that I am going to take a favorite I like to get down on them as early as possible to avoid the sharps, hard money bettors etc exploding a line and make me end up with less value. In effect I don't really look at consensus, line movement, and stuff like that...

    Also I like Quintana#12 tomorrow as well. I have Keaton Winn as a DNS starter which bodes badly for the Giants-doesn't hurt that the Metropolitan bats are in order suddenly either. There is no line for it yet....

    I performed my pitching rostering early and waited for the lines to be offered by the men. Some of the top 10's are juiced beyond what I am willing to pay in vig so I will have to wait some of them out for the RL's to be announced.

    Anyway I snapped up some positions for Tuesday already. Once the RL's are offered I will blast away on those and post them up on this reply

    It's Corbin. It's the Dodgers. If he would just throw the damn cutter instead of sinkers he would actually creep up to my third tier. As for right now he is ranked dead last for Tuesday's arms.

    Dodgers Team Total OVER ANYTHING on Tuesday

    Making moves for Thursday early here. Peralta is back for the Brews! Sort of an up and down day on Wednesday and most of the week for that matter. Errors are pissing on the money in this format-despite that, my fantasy studs are hired aces and are going to keep on doing so as the revenue streams keep coming in from my rosters. betting on games is much harder because of relief pitching and errors. Because of this we are all going to end up with around .500 records by the end of the season

    Bit of a buy back with Andrew Heaney#12 of the Wanderers. He has developed an outstanding mix of elevated 4 seamers and sliders, curveballs and changeups low and out of the zone

    Taking a chance on Freddy Peralta despite having his start pushed back 2 times. Could it be that he has some discomfort of some sort? Guess we will find out the hard way. My fear is that having him so high on my roster and the Brews not revealing an undisclosed injury would force me to go get a temporary bat to replace him in case he ends up on the IR! Guys in my league are chomping at the bit to make up the distance on me! Egads!

    Yep. Something was wrong with Freddy Peralta and as public person I wasn't privy to that type of information. I kind of touched on this earlier this morning. It was a feeling that I had

    4.2 innings pitched 5 hits, 5 earned runs, 5 walks, 5 k's, 1 home run and get this 91 pitches and only 51 were strikes. I got hosed. I immediately will swap him out for Rafael Devers of the Red Sox at the conclusion of today's events.

    I won't have much time to be around today-lots of family stuff so I pretty much stuck with my top 10 today. I am gonna chase K's with Burnes, Eflin and Eovaldi. I don't like to pay negative money for a RL if I can get around it. Anyway I will post up the K's lines once those are available.
