Excellent show Dave - Afternoon baseball..I am taking the over 5 total runs (-130) for the Cubs. After 2 straight losses I look for the Cubbies bats to be strong...BOL today on your plays!!

[BatemanPatrickl]

Vegas Dave...Nice video pal.

[JamesBrown]

Another great video, Vegas Dave...Thanks!

I'm curious, how much do you weigh travel time/distance and home field advantage when capping baseball? These are big factors obviously for basketball, but I was curious as to how heavily these factors weigh when researching your baseball plays.

Nice work VD, BOL.

[VegasDave]

dude what r ur thought with the cubs,

Very sorry I didn't get back to you in time, I got busy over here, sorry about that!

Wouldn't have had much to add though. Couldn't recommend betting St. Louis sending Walters to the mound, but also wouldn't want to lay that much chalk on the Cubs on early season Zambrano + Cubbies mini-slump.

Let me know what you bet if anything so I can root it home for you .

[Flyers09]

i got em ML forst 5innings and over 5 for first 5 innings

so far 2-0 cubs top of second

[Brock Landers]

San Diego +150 is the play of the day VD

[Willie Bee]

Well Zimmerman is available in one of my leagues presently. Just wish it wasn't against Derek Lowe on Monday, assuming rotations hold. I've got an empty slot so what the hell. He can at least keep a spot in my rotation until Dice K and Kuroda come back from DL and the Rays get off their stingers and bring Price up.

[VegasDave]

Thank you all for the kind words! I'm really glad you guys are enjoying these!

If you don't mind waiting a few days for an answer, would definitely like to answer this on a show next week... this is a great question

Uh-oh... I'm going to be more nervous than Zimmermann! If he has a terrible first outing and I ruin Willie Bee's fantasy team's week, my days might be numbered .
