LTA...can you please tell me where I can get the home plate umpire assignments...thanksComment -
Generally, Covers, Statfox, Oddsshark and Vegas Insider (among others) do a good job of providing the home plate assignments in the matchup section for each game (I generally use Covers).
If it's a first game of a particular series (so usually on Monday/Tuesday or Thursday/Friday), you will ONLY be able to get them on MLB.com about 1hr - 1.5hr before game time. If this is the case, you will need to go to the scoreboard section of MLB.com, then in each game section it will say "Box" in the upper right-hand section if the lineup and umps have been released (again, usually about 1-1.5 hrs before game time). Click where it says "Box" and the boxscore will come up. From there, scroll to the very bottom and the umpire assignments will be released. Once you get the name, you can go back to Covers or Statfox for statistics on the umps with respect to strike percentage, over/under tendencies, results against particular teams, results against particular pitchers, etc.
You should be able to find them pretty easy if you use the above directions. If you have any trouble, just let me know. Good luck.Comment -
Our night is going to be made or broken by our late-night west-coast under plays. Despite the line movement in favor of the over in those games, I am pretty set on adding another unit to each. If these don't hit, it will definitely be time for another adjustment against the books. We did the same about three or four weeks ago and went on a big tear. Let's just hope it's not necessary though. The Philly under is already cooked. Let's get the Pirates and Devil Rays unders and we'll be in good shape going into the late games.Comment -
WNBA 7/5/11
LA/Phoenix under (177.5) 1.5x (Locked)
I am also playing for my 1h experiment but not for the records here the 1h under (87) for 0.50x.
I cannot believe the over did not cash in the Seattle game. We had 139 point with 1:25 remaining. HOW DO YOU NOT SCORE 5 POINTS WITH THAT MUCH TIME LEFT AND THE FAMOUS WNBA FOULING LATE IN GAMES? Whatever, I am done bitching about the WNBA...these girls are crazy but hopefully they end up making us some money tonight. Good luck!Comment -
Cash the 1x Cardinals over and 5x Pirates under! Unfortunately, the Phillies under was a 2.5x loser...big games coming up here tonight...Comment -

We're pretty much playing right at the number for the game total. However, I lost the 1h experiment on the under. It was actually looking really good with 3 minutes left. I mean, after all, Seattle and Indiana didn't score any points in the final 2 minutes of the game to burn an easy over play. Wouldn't you know, though, that LA and Phoenix do the exact opposite and score an easy 17 points in the final three minutes of the 1h to screw the 1h under. This is going to be one crazy season. Hopefully, these bad breaks even out. We've won some close games this year, so hopefully we can get a little luck on this LA/Pho under. BOL...Comment -
I'm hanging out with the fam and hitting the hay early. Hopefully, I'll have something to celebrate in the morning. Good luck everyone!Comment -
Good luck LTA. Appreciate the hard work.Comment -
Not a bad day at all, the add ons kinda hurt though...Wed gonna be HUGEComment -
thanks for the picks!Comment -
Well we could have had a nice day, but the seattle/oakland under pushed out of nowhere in the bottom of the ninth when oaklad tied it at 2-2 and seattle scored two in the tenth for a push at 4-2. Just our luck lately, but we are due for a big day today after treading water for a week now. It's times like this that you prove yourself as a capper because we have to have the discipline not to get frustrated and go all in on some stupid play. Thankfully, I'm not your average capper and have too much intelligence and discipline to make mistakes like that. We just go back to the grind...there's nothing I like for a huge play today. We might have a 4x play though and plenty of action. Gotta get to work and will post three early plays. Good luck today!Comment -
MLB 7/6/11
Astros ML (+ 110) 1.5x (locked)
Indians ML (-105) 1.5x (locked)
Astros/Pirates under (7.5) 1x (locked)
Norris dominated the bucs earlier in the year in a tough luck loss 1-0. Morton should limit the astros to hold the under, but not enough to win. The indians play is a fade of Hughes in his return. We will have more plays later and we will be going back to some of our line movement/pubic fade plays now that inter league play is over. Good luck!Comment -

Thanks for the umpiring info...in review of yesterdays games...I was a bit puzzled that LAA and Det
were juiced to the over...with such low whips as Verlander and Haran have......wondering if it was a 'headfake" to take the over......gotta watch for that stuffComment -
Mariners/Oakland under (7) 4x (locked)
This is my highest rated play today. I would make it larger, but the ump welke is a big over ump. However, he has a decent strike percentage so we'll go with 4x for two pitchers that have been on fire and teams that struggle offensively while trending under. Good luck!Comment -
MLB 7/6/11
TB/Minny under (7.5)(+ 100) 1.5x (locked)
Been waiting all morning to get 8, but both of my locals opened at 7.5 and stayed there. Major books just dropped to 7.5, so couldn't wait no more. Darling is a big under ump and Davis has pitched well. Just hoping we can get a good performance out of liriano. Good luck!Comment -
MLB 7/6/11
AZ/Mil over (8) 0.50x (locked)
Fading collmenter and gallardo despite movement in favor of the under...good luck!Comment -

Hey LTA. Can you update your record as it's been a few days. Cheers and good luck pal for tonightComment -
we will see how the total plays out on the Mariners game.....lot of movement to the over, rarely have I seen a total move up...when it opens that low....Comment -
I will try, but I always have trouble keeping up the record during the week when I have to work, cap all the games and meet all my family's needs. I try to do most of the bookkeeping on the weekend. Let me see what I can do. If not tonight, I will get to it after fridays games. Good luck tonight!Comment -
Cash the 4x mariners under!
Comment -
Good call LTA on the Mariners game. I gotta admit I was nervous about that one when I saw it posted. Glad I decided to ride along with you on it.
GL rest of the night, I am sensing positive results heading into this weekend.
Grind on!

Mlb 7/6/11
Philly/Marlins under (7.5)(+ 100) 1.5x (locked)
Sanchez will be locked and loaded for this game and kendrick has pitched ok. Eddings favors the under and both teams are solid under bets. Lets hope they did all their scoring for this series yesterday. Good luck!
Waiting on some line movement for a couple more plays...Comment -
