Fade the Oakland A's as they suck.

Correct. Last night, at least to my knowledge, was the first time all year more dogs won straight up than favs on an MLB card. Favs have been killing it.

Depends on what you consider a ‘dog’, but if you don’t consider Cincinnati (-105) beating KC (-109) a dog as I do, then your numbers are way off. I tracked from day 1 and have dogs winning 26 days, favorites winning 48 and one day was a tie. Yes still majority favorites but that’s how it goes and this is coming from a dog bettor.

By comparison, at this time last season - 13 dog days, 56 favorite days and 6 ties. These are my own personal numbers of course. Nothing factual but I am thorough.

Maybe. Either way you have to bet them with their recent form and huge lines they're getting.

**CHIEF BRODY** · 06-13-23, 11:44 AM

OAKLAND again a incredibly valued dog and at home

Tiger's also a tremendous value

**JIBBBY** · 06-13-23, 11:51 AM

I just don't have the man stones to bet on the A's during this winning streak. Just taking a pass and an outsider looking in.

Very tempting to bet now but still can't! Value is insane!

Thanks for the data. Much appreciated.

I've been fading KC and making bank roll on that. KC still a crap ass team!

KC is on a 7 game losing streak. 1-9 in their last 10 games. KC blows!

They are at home today again and could win as the Reds aren't world beaters but I just continue to fade and get paid! They are the new A's!

Detroit has been a tremendous value for a while now.

2022, last year, they only won 40 percent of their games, but turned a profit.
Last season, Detroit went 11-9 in interleague play, and the National League teams they beat the Tigers were obscene dogs.
Most of those games they won at +220 or greater bow-wows.

Conversely, LA Dodgers went 111-51
60 over .500, yet lost money from a betting standpoint.

How's that possible?
Those 51 losses they were on the average a -220 favorite
LAD won 111 games, all as a favorite.
I'll do the math.

111 x 1.00 = 111
51 x 220 = 112
111-112 = -1.0

Well, just because they lose 1 game doesn't mean to back off. If they're playing good ball then you keep betting them. And they have turned it around. I think they hit the books and the war room and got some things figured out. They still have a share of weaknesses but they 100% were/are not as bad as how they played most of the year.

They have a lot of young players too. Look at Waldichuk for example. He has a 7 + era but last night came in in relief and did well. Maybe this is where he will excel instead of starting? And don't forget....they lost Olson, Murphy, and many others but they did get players in return and some of them are on the field every night and pitching. Things take time!

I think biggest crowd all year on hand so far for the Athletics. Let's Go Oakland! Let's Go Oakland! The crowd intimidating.

I thought I saw some YouTuber who has a channel about going to their games said for yesterday’s game they were trying to get all of these people to go to show ownership the fans don’t want them to leave or something.

I heard there is some sort of promotion going on at the stadium.
I didn't look into that, but that's what I heard and could be the reason for the crowd.

They're doing what they call a reverse boycott. I guess they're trying to show the owner John Fisher that Oakland can support a team. Everyone is wearing shirts that say sell. Hoping that John Fisher will sell the team

This.

Another stellar A's pitcher showing up tonight so far thru 4 innings of play. Just amazing! This is a very good Rays team they are shutting down at home so far.

Almost tempted to live bet the A's but just can't do it! My balls shrivel up when trying to bet on the A's!

Hogan's Heroes is going to be pretty good. I said that last week but he just did alright in that game but they still won the game. I got them ML to win 2 hunge, +2 win 2 hunge, and the under 8 LIVE I got to win 2 hunge. I don't blame you if you didn't catch the streak earlier. My smallest risk is on the ML in this one.

Now, their pitching is getting better. I thought Hogan had the best stuff but he might not. The first time I watched him pitch a few weeks back I was impressed.

**Nate rasta** · 06-13-23, 10:39 PM

Feels like a playoff game in Oakland! Go A's

**JIBBBY** · 06-13-23, 10:41 PM

Tied up 1-1..

Amazing throw by Langeliers. Fast release and perfect placement.

**hehfest** · 06-13-23, 10:58 PM

Jibbby is that you runnng around on the field all drunk?

**JIBBBY** · 06-13-23, 11:02 PM

A's get the win against a very solid team again. JUST AMAZING this turn around.

Now I'm kicking myself in the ass for not betting it. I am a streak following gambler too..

Damn it!

I’ll be on them again tomorrow. Loving these nice dog prices.

Yep ride again

**Allure** · 06-14-23, 01:35 AM

At this point I'm not even betting anything besides Oakland anymore.

They are +230 again today. I'll play RRL today as well, probably hits too.

Collect your daily gifts and call it a day no need to bet anything else.

Only 20.5 out of the wildcard with 93 games left. LET'S GET IT!

I mean it surely is a lot however 2-3 of these winning streaks and they'll be right there. Oakland will most likely sweep Tampa and Phillies is next, so could be a 10+ game winning streak.

They might need Roy Hobbs about now to make it. Last year I think 86 wins was the last Wildcard in. Since, there are now 3 in. Who knows maybe this year its 84 or 85.

Too little too late. They're averaging less than 9k/game this season and have had awful attendance for years.

**Nate rasta** · 06-14-23, 09:10 AM

Las Vegas is a L.A. market. I don't see them having a good fan base there or even having good attendance at the games

**JIBBBY** · 06-14-23, 09:21 AM
