Who is with me? I may add Texas later if I'm not getting slaughtered.
San Diego was a lean but the line is fishy....

Don't forget that Mil. Is red hot winning 16 out of 18 and 75% of their home games.
Still like LA...

I actually never play a team based on trends, stats, or heaters/slumps. I value each team at square one & subtract/add from there. If there is a typical base ball upset to be had it would be a freak LAD win.
Mil also likes to go games only posting 1-3 runs. Add that both teams had tiring outtinhs yesterday. The advantage here goes to Mil because they didny travel & usually perform well after a near shut out. So for LA to win they will need to post about 5 runs or shut out mil completely. I just dont see it.

You could be right. I'm taking an underdog. They aren't supposed to win.
I just feel like the Twins or LA will win. That means profit since both are +money.
I expect Lilly to pitch well tonight. That's why I took LA. That being said, he could get shelled as well.

Big your rational is sound of course. You can 160 bucks to win 100 or risk around what 70 to win 100+? I get it long term if you lose 70 your good but if your losing 160 a wack your struggling. Im very lucky in the fact I parlay everything & Im hitting about 64% on 4-5 teamers. I really only need to hit round 52% to stay profitable but this makes it easier for

Lilly looked beautiful against a Phillies lineup that was stacked with R's. He did have quite a friendly ump, though. Ihad to seriously consider this play at those odds until i smacked myself in the face for considering going against the Brewers at home with the Dodgers... Just doesn't seem necessary.. Scary as it may be, i'm liking the under here. Waiting for it to hit 9, still may take it at 8.5.

See now thats logical. I could back the under here no matter who wins. I will wait for closer to close hope we get a good number.

I should have taken the under in the Dodgers game since I thought Lilly would pitch well.
Lilly pitched 7 innings and gave up two hits, one run. Meanwhile, the Dodgers had two runners thrown out at home and hit into a triple play. Oh well, I went 1-1 with Minn. and LA like I hoped so I profited there.
