jcubs55's Second Half of MLB Season Thread

[jcubs55]

Hey guys, I have only posted two plays on this forum thus far this year (2-0), but I have had a couple winning seasons on other forums. I will use this thread for plays that I will post over the course of the rest of the season. Today was fun, I had the NL ML, NL reverse RL, and Under 8.5... awesome game. Anyways, no need to keep talking, hopefully my plays will speak for themselves.

Won't count the two posted plays that won since that was the first half of the season... clean start:

0-0 +0.0 Units

Let's do this

GL next half man. Go CUBS!!

[hoop22]

yep good luck & have a great 2nd half guys!!

[tuohy]

Looking forward to see your picks.

[jcubs55]

Thanks for the kind words gentlemen. Almost all plays will be less than 5 Units, with a significant portion of those being 2 Units or less. Bankroll management is key; set your bet amounts accordingly.

Two small plays for tonight:

Los Angeles Dodgers +117 risking 0.5 Units to win 0.585 Units
Texas Rangers +104 risking 1 Unit to win 1.04 Units

Heading down to Wrigley for the Cubs game tonight so won't be able to wait and see what happens with late lines, oh well. Good luck to all.

[jcubs55]

Not going to play the Cubs runline today, wind is blowing in so we might not be able to hit some out today off Wandy.
