      I had a decent afternoon but Fla and possibly Tampa are going to derail my winning day. I like the Snakes or maybe U9 and while I'm tempted to take the Angels I'm not sure going against the blazing hot Rangers is the best idea.

        do people think you should ride a hot team out until their winning streak ends, or bet against them anticipating for the streak to end imminently?

        I get the funny feeling that as soon as I hop on the Rangers bandwagon, they'll finally snap their winning streak

            Common sense says take the streak until it ends, I mean if you took the Rangers 12 games ago and kept riding them you would be sitting pretty right now. At the same time anyone who can pinpoint a spot where an ace pitcher is going to have an off-night or a streak is going to end probably gets a nice return on the investment.

              and against lefties. don't think i can pull the trigger on under 9, but has me thinking about Dbacks (or Brewers TT under 4.5, but that's -125, so might as well just play Dbacks if anything)

              also, can't go against the streak. that has to be Rangers or nothing.

                In this case the Rangers are a dog so it's not like there is a lot of value on the Angels by any means, I'm sure it can be looked at that as the Rangers being the 'value' play tonight. However if you decide tonight's the night they go down then laying -120 isn't terrible but not desirable for the type of situation.

                  this is usually what happens to me... i get on hot teams little too late.. If I put my money on rangers, they will sux today for sure.. maybe I should just skip this game..

                      I find it somewhat strange that with 2 solid pitchers the over is getting most of the action? I know the Rangers have been hot at the plate but they couldn't do it by themselves last night. I thought the same thing with the Reds game earlier, over was getting pounded despite the fact the Reds had yet to score in the series.

                        agree with most rather just say rangers or nothing

                              TEX 2x

                              ...my hunch!
                              when the rangers finally lose,
                              it will be when we least expect it,
                              as a -150 or greater favorite at home,
                              for example. good luck, y'all- whatever you play!
                              I'm rolling with the hot bats and a shutout pitcher as
                              road dogs for plus money. good luck all around!
