Blue Jays -124 (W) 2 units
Let's recap today's selections:

One small step for man, one giant leap for the contrarians.
The Contrarian
The contrarian continues his great start as the contrarian tower takes on more followers

Contrarian Double Dog Play
For those of you who are not familiar with the Contrarian Double Dog Play (CDDP), we are looking for two dogs with value, looking to cash at least one, to generate positive units on the day.
The Yankees followers, after the home opener win, will get awfully confident today. The linesmakers put out the nibble -155 line to lure them in, we know better. The price for the Tigers are right for them in the Bronx.
Tigers +145 (2 units)
The Braves after their shutout raised their hype a notch or two. But at the end of the home opener, what really happened, the Braves were 2 runs on five hits. The Nats at home with Lannan present a value.
Nationals +145 (2 units)
The CDDP sets up nicely. We will be spreadsheeting these in the Tower.

Contrarian Tower is waterfront property? Love it. I will have TheJewBear take on dock boy duties.

Just to be clear pair, do we bet CDDG plays the same as you mentioned on the opening page? so it'd be risking 2u to win 2.9

2 units individually on each game. If one wins, you will be positive units on the day. Moreover, bet the same amount on each game.

I am not a parlay guy, particularly at the start of the season.

Dock boy? I guess I can handle that job too. Nice hit on those games yesterday fives...maybe just end the season now on a high note..
I will be on the CDDP for today and I acutally am going to make it a CTDP and add in San Diego at +135. All the money seems to be flooding in on St Louis..let me know if my contrarian logic might be correct here.

Congrats on your 2-0 day yesterday Pair. It was almost as good as my 3-0 day.
AND, I narrowly escaped the SCHNIDE down at the game. Down to my last batter, my last strike.
Good luck today, Sir. You are the greatest.

If both legs of the CDDP cash, I am hiring Jose Feliciano to perform at the Tower.

I don't like the triple for the fact that you will need 2 winners to show profitable units. The purpose of the Contrarian Double Dog Play is to find two value plays at + money, cash at least one for profit. With third team in there, you are just playing three dogs.
