    Yeah not sure Detroit can do it. And I'd take the Tampa under before I'd take Tampa. Good luck

    I don't like:

    Det - check the pitching matchup. No way I'm laying that juice.
    Dbag - their bats is inconsistence, the bullpen sux, WAS can hit just about anyone that is less than an ACE
    Sea - they have no bats. Felix is an ACE but doesn't have good number against Tex, and Hunter is a beast in his own right. Texas slaughtered the M last night. Chances are M will win today. But I don't see an edge or any value here. I wouldn't bet on it.

    Good luck.

    They also know that in baseball any team can win on any given day, so if you lay the juice for favorites all the time, they will still make money the 1 in 3 days that the favs lose.

    Best thing for baseball is to watch and play with the gut.

    and favourites only win 55-60% of the time so dont always go for them...making money long-term is all bout money management, check out this ebook i have http://www.megaupload.com/?d=FULC91FW. read page 79 to get a quick fix on capping baseball and also check out the baseball under dog system. pg 59 has the sagarin era ranking website.

    if the bookies have the teams figured out, as you propose in the originally OP, you should only be betting teams at prices that are off-market

    No problem, thanks for the picks See i aint betting for fun or to prove anything, just to make some cash for school. So its easier just tailing you than spending hours doing research and making less money. Fun for me is seeing the cash roll in... new comers dont hate if you unfortunately tail on a losing day, streaks happen all the time in capping, and its about the long-term, if you dont know that well your in trouble. (read the ebook!) with that being said, paco is solid.

    I'm sure that -250 is much higher today.

    You know once you lay off the favorites, they will start winning again. You have to go with your GUT! Although tailing Paco is much easier. lol

    Being able to cap your own game is a gratifying experience.
