Hey, just curious, do you ever play -1 RL? I usually play that instead of -1.5 RL because I get the push in one run games like Boston last night.
Anyway, good luck on your plays for today. Hope the baby and family are doing well.

LTA, yeah, I do play -1 RLs. Last night, I just thought Beckett would shut down the rays, didn't expect Nieman to do the same to the bosox hahaha. I actually don't play RLs that often, can't stomach it. I still have nightmares of 5 run leads going into the 9th and out of bullpen comes Bobby Jenks.....

i like Vogelson and the Giants too..but they are outside my personal limits of faves <-125.
during may/june, i like to roll with doggies and faves <-120
as july/august comes around and the contenders start to separate from pretenders, i slowly roll to faves below -125 juice.
just my personal taste, that's all. Helps me from going overboard on plays.
Super busy @ work and missed my earlier plays. Just gonna put it all on my remaining pick
Rockies-110 for 3x

Still killing it! Almost at your 30x goal...you'll get there and beyond I am sure.
Good luck tonight on the Rockies. As you know, I was leaning Braves hard but layed off. It's a good game so far, tied in the 8th. I hope you cash it

I never pull out the dancing man for my own winners, but you definitely deserve it. Way to hit that big 3x play on the Rockies and hit your +30x goal in the process. Congrats. Time to put that 30x in the bank for the kid and start all over again! Good luck my friend.

Lol. Man, those were great games for us both. Thought your angels were toast after that 5 run inning by Tex but then they came back with. 6 run spurt. Awesome.
Thanks for the support. Funny how I ended right on my goal. $3,000 for the college fund and above 55% hits. Can't wait for NFL!

Took a day off yest to recharge. Phase 1 of this MLB experiment was a success.
Going to start Phase 2. New goals: +45x, $4,500, and hit better than phase 1 % (57.1%)
Phase1 (14 weeks): 96-72, +30.00x, $3,000 (57.1%)

knowledge sharing:
This is a good article on Pitcher metric "K% vs. K9". From article:
"....knowing a pitcher’s K% is important for at least two reasons (in that it’s predictive of BABIP allowed and home runs per fly ball). Beyond that, K% is plainly the more accurate representation of what we’re intending when we cite K/9 — namely, to note which pitcher or pitchers are the best at inducing strikeouts."
This sunset has a pretty high Glory Factor (GF). The attentive reader will note that FanGraphs Dark Overlord David Appelman has recently descended from atop his inlaid throne and made some changes to…
