looks like too many games

[johnnymapalo]

that's why I only risk $5.00 or $6. Most of my money is on straight bets..

I'd go for an upset in the Padres/Yankees game. The game has the trappings of an upset waiting to unfold.

I like the Braves/Rangers Under 10.

In Hudson's last 10 starts, the most runs in a game was 9 and it happened twice. The Under is 8-2 in the Braves last 10 games. Under is 4-6 in the Rangers last 10 games, but they are up against Hudson. Padilla is Texas's best pitcher as he is 8-3 +10.75 units this season alone, and second place on the Rangers is Gabbard at +3.65 units. Hudson has the best ERA on the Braves and also a 1.14 WHIP.

I also like the Houston/Balt Over. I don't like any play on the Twins game. Good Luck.

parlay payouts are so tempting

I think 2 pick parlays are the way to go... usually going with dogs.

My bets range from $50 to $100 depending on how I'm doing for the week....

so far, so good.

2 pick parlays are my favorite. Win Big, Loose Small. I love it.


Good Luck

Those stats don't really mean squat. I rarely look at stats dating back months back or so. I look at how they've been playing recently to form my opinion. Baltimore played Pittsburgh recently in Baltimore and all 3 games went on the over. That showed me that Baltimore was vulnerable to the over. Houston just got blown out by New York, an embarrasment, so they want to stop the bleeding and put some runs on the board next game. I knew they would get at least 3 runs cause Olson is not Baltimore's ace. Coupled with it being the first game of the series, first game of any series is usually the high game, Baltimore prone to going over at home to weak teams (Pittsburgh) and Houston wanting to come back from the weak performance, plus 1 days rest. That's how I figured it was a shoe in for the over...

Just like the pittsburgh/white sox over 8.5 game and the texas/Atlanta over 10. I don't know why nobody saw the pitts game. That was a guaranteed over. 2 sorry teams, 2 sorry pitchers, 1st game of series. Guaranteed lock on the overs..
