Yep, generally people here post their picks get them in right away if they figure it is going to beat the closer.

I have a quick question and it might be a dumb one: Why not take the Rockies at +1.5 for 2 units, that way if the dodgers still win but it is 1 run game, you can win both in this case, if Rockies win you still cut most of your losses?
I don't want to lay money on both bets for the least likely scenario. I am laying 150 and need to get back 140 on Rockies if they win. If dodgers win by 1 I still make a unit.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something but you have the Dodgers for 1 unit and Rockies for 2 units. They play each other?

I could be wrong because I'm just going off of what I remember watching through the years/games vs. actual stats, but I think some of these KC cats hit JV pretty well.

Hosmer and I think Moustakas will be as well. Butler hasn't quite developed the way I thought he would. Gordon's still hit and miss.
As usual, the Royals have a lot of young talent. We'll see how long they hold onto them before unloading.

that was pure torture for 3 innings...and to lose with 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th hurts worse than if we lost it early on

No, but was watching and worse than just losing was them tying it and then losing it. Hopes dashed. OUCH! Books had to make some real coin there.

Nice. I'm getting it at 7. Weeee!
Edit: And I got Cards under 8.5.
Does waiting to see line movements hurt or help you more often than not in the long run, Dex?
