Hey Wallco... Do you have rough idea when first play of your system will start?

[griksiflips]

is this system profitabile for long time? Because this system not update by few years?

[jcygts6]

cant wait till jm plays start

[hagball52]

cant wait till jm plays start

Won't be long. We have a play coming up on Monday. It won't be official but I believe that it will be a good play.

[hagball52]

Lots of action tomorrow. We have 10 possible sweeps. Tampa is also on the verge of being swept but they don't finish their series with Boston until Monday. The other teams to watch for are CIN, PHI, MIL, PIT, SDG, ARI, MIN, TOR, DET and KAN. Will update after the games go final tomorrow. GL all

Hey Hagball I appreciate you taking charge of the Jm Plays and keeping everyone updated!

[delbiand]

Thanks haball

[cmdyrds]

doesn't seem like the braves will pass the rip filter. anyone playing it regardless?

[HuskerExpat]

I'm taking the Braves regardless. RPI not settled in yet...

[hagball52]

Absolutely. I've already handicapped the series and I have ATL favored in games 1 and 3 so hopefully they will get at least one of those.

Thanks and I will be counting on your help again this year. I know you stepped up last season when I made a few mistakes. Looking forward to your assistance.

[hagball52]

Out of 10 possible sweeps today there were 4 with 3 of them resulting in future plays. The SDG/LAD matchup in May is only a 2 gm set but we have to track it. It will not qualify as a system play unless the Dodgers win those 2. I have it marked on the schedule for tracking purposes. Also there is one more possible sweep tomorrow. TAM has a 4th game at BOS.

hello hagball,

how did you handicap ATL for games 1 and 3, can you explain? also, when will the RPI numbers be meaningful and what is the best source of the data?

thanks!

thanks!!!! apologize for the foolish question but this is using moneyline bets, correct? what is the best money management system to use for JM's mlb system? Labbying?

this is my first time following this system, the NBA system did not work out bc my bookie did not allow for 3 points of buying, only a max of 2.

thanks for your help! looking forward to a (positive and) productive season.

Yeap def. I'll help out throughout the season.

[petters72]

I wonder how to play the MLB? I have never done it before, the only thing I have played is the 7/5 in NBA. Is it the same strategy? Or something else? Perhaps I am not the only one wondering so if someone could be so kind to explain once and for all how it is done, that would be higly appriciated.
Thanks in advance

A lot of people handicap in different ways but I take all the fundamental stats that are available (espn website is a good source) and look at pitching matchups, run differential and streaks of wins and losses, team batting avg., onbase percentage and also the pitcher's whip, plus home and away. It gives me a pretty good idea of the strength of each individual game. That being said, it does not always translate into wins.

The rpi numbers will start to make some sense by the end of April.

Several websites have good info. I use espn, vegasinsider, scores and odds and don best.

There is a couple different ways to play JM MLB. Chase (Martingale) or labby are the most popular. There is labby information all throughout these threads and me personally, I chase. The chase method is explained in Morrison's rules.

*Unofficial*

Notes: I will be playing with the format a little as we get started into the season. I'll try to be as informative as possible without overdoing it. Also I will probably break down the V2 plays between official and unofficial this season. Last season I lumped them all into one. GL today everbody. I will be playing this series for one unit.

Another good source is S.I.com (Sports Illustrated). Go to MLB pitching probables. This will show pitching match ups for all series.

Thanks. I'll check it out.

Hag, sorry but I forget however why is this one Unofficial?

Keep up the great work! And thanks

RPI differential is out of the .015 range.

[J.M. Disciple]

Anyone have the post # of past records for A - B - C? Looking for winning % of each stage.

[J.M. Disciple]

Also labby will be more profitable with this system seeing how 1 loss on a chase could wipe out your entire season.

[J.M. Disciple]

I would probably take the -1 line instead of the juice on this series. -1 at (-115). On3 is on ATL for his home game stand as well. Besides starting pitcher, mets clearly have advantage in this game.

[Brundle99]

Hi Hagball,

It's been a long time since iv'e been on here, hope all is well.

[imotiv8]

Lets get it started!

[Brundle99]

Terrible start Atlanta, let's try and finish this at the [B] bet! :0)

[DustyDiamond]

Morrison email called the Atlanta series official

I'm sure it'll stay official if Atlanta wins one. If they don't, he'll come back and change it to unofficial after the fact. Typical Morrison BS.

Notes: Someone earlier mentioned that Morrison sent out an email calling this play official. I got the same email. He is calling it the first system play of the season. He does not say official or unofficial. We all know how this will go. If it wins it's official and if it loses he will come back and say the rpi was off and call it unofficial. Also note that Atlanta is a small favorite (less than -115) so according to JM's rules it should be bet on the alternate (+1.5) run line. That should put the juice well over -200. No thanks. I'll take my chances and play them as a small fav. GL all

P.S. We'll keep it unofficial. We will always play by the rules even when JM doesn't. He has always fudged the rules to suit his liking. We'll keep it real.

P.P.S. Also note Atlanta qualifies as a V2 play.

Good to see some of the familiar faces back. I'm doing well and looking forward to a profitable season.

Sounds about right based on all the stuff I've heard about the guy, lol.

Thanks for all the organization in here, will probably be on board for the next play.
