    Betting Yankees is a very bad bet..............
    Guess who has the best record in baseball this year?? that's right, the NYY.. and guess what, despite having the best record in baseball and being 30 games over .500.. if you bet the NYY each game this year, you'd be up only a few units.. how sad is that? and that's after this big winning streak they're on, too.. Imagine how much you'd be down if they weren't doing so good and having a mediocre season?

    and if you bet the NYY every game for the last 10 or so yrs, you'd be down well over 100 units.. NYY would have to win close to 104 games in order to break even.. How sad is this.

    it's a no win situation betting the yanks.. their price is always too high and that's because the squares love them..

    Despite them winning every game like this, stay away from the yankees.. and thank me later.

      I bet the Bronx Bombers at -2.5 (+145) tonight and enjoyed all 9 innings.

            imagine that, MJ.. 9th and are 30 games over .500..

            every year, they win about 95 games and lose close to 18 units....

            best record in baseball and 30 games over .500 and are 9th best.. imagine if they were having a mediocre season??

              Which is why you don't blindly bet on any team all the time. I'm not scared to bet on the Yankees...you have to pick your spots like everything else.

                      I pick and choose days to bet on the Yankees. Thankfully today, they put me in the green overall

                        It is not a team I bet very often, but if they are profitable this season there were probably some spots where they were a good bet

                              So you scientists basically make picks after the game is over? I would love to see where you posted this pick and don't give me that speadsheet bs neither because a lot of white guys are changing their numbers in there. And you know how they are about money....

                                  I'm glad I was fading the nationals as soon as that 8 game win streak started

                                          I have been winning with them of late and will continue to take them.

                                          I think your up though a decent amount if you took them the last 40 games

                                                  Fade em early, then when they streak you lay off. You'd be killing it right now if you had adpoted this idea. I usually stay away from them though

                                                    Fade the Yanks FOREVER, not just this season, you will guarantee a profit.

                                                              packs, you have no idea waht you are talking about.. if you bet NYY this year, despite them having the best record in baseball by a long way, you'd ONLY be up a few units.. imagine if they were mediocre like usual.. you'd be broke.

                                                              and in the last 10 yrs, if you are betting the NYY, you'd be down 100 units and more if you are playing into a 20 cent line. way more, like 160 units.

                                                              only reason you are up this year is because they happen to be doing great..
