    Small units in bases on the net. To win $250. Hockey units bigger. A Vegas El Niņo POUND PLAY in bases has been as high as $7K. Have had much better bankroll management this year though.

    Yeah, the Twins are brutal this season. I remember I was bustin' on BIGDAY for backing the Orioles against them. Twins jumped out to a 6 run lead and lost by 3

    The tough thing about fading the Twinkies is the fact that Gardenhire is the manager. He is as good as it gets IMO. I lived in Minny for 6 years, there during the ridiculousness talk of contraction and that SOB just kept winning the division or getting into the play-offs. Tough to fade a team that has such a strong leader - but it goes to show you that a coach is only as good as his players and right now the Twins Suck Ass!!

    I agree. After TK retired, Gardy picked right up. I'm a big Gardy fan and a fan of the way they have played ball the right way and developed a lot of their farm team talent. Minus the Mauer contract (which was absolutely necessary with the new stadium coming in) the front office has done fairly well in letting "past their prime" talent looking for big money contracts go, i.e., Santana, Hunter, Cuddyer, Kubel. I knew they were in a rebuilding phase, but I didn't think it would be this bad.

    I'm a huge Twins fan as well. Grew up during the World Series years. I was at Game 6 of the 1991 World Series. Lots of good memories in the Homer Dome, but they just suck right now. That Nishioka signing was dreadful. Their starting pitching has been terrible and is usually what kept them in division races. Solid pitching, tight defense, and a solid bullpen. Hopefully this downswing isn't more than 2-3 years.

    zYou know I love you Nino and I've been a fan of Gardy in the past, but I'm starting to wonder. Should they be a contender? No. But there's no reason for them to lose this many games year in and year out the way they have on his watch. Big difference between being .500 and losing 90 games or more three years in a row, which is where they're headed. I think Molitor is the Twins' manager by next year.

    They should not be losing 90 games...no. They also shouldn't have a CF batting a buck fitty nine. I would agree that Gardy is out if they finish in the cellar or lose 90+ games again.

    Hicks just isn't ready. You can see the tools, but he's really raw.

    I just love when the Cubbies or the Twinkies take a 1 or 2 run lead into the final 3 innings...the ML on "opponent" will be value because most live-betting algorithms are based on a monster-sized database of MLB games, ergo based on "average" or "normal" propensities to blow games...not on especially "gifted" teams like these...

    Deemer, it had to be done.

    Deemer, if my instincts are square, the opposite is sharp.

    Deemer, there is a high probability that these profit.

    Hitting a couple home dogs for 2u a piece. One of these cashes, there's value on both.

    With Felix, he runs in streaks and right now he is pitching poorly. The Mariners choked away a chance to steal one on the road late in the 9th inning last night. King Felix is going up against Andrew Cashner. The Padres are 4-1 this month when Cashner has started with wins at home against the Nationals and the Marlins and wins on the road against the Dbacks and the Orioles. Cashner is 3-1 (1 ND) with a 3.45ERA 19K's and a WHIP of 1.25. He pitches better at home than on the road. I believe I'm getting the slightly better offense here with the Padres.

    With Lohse, you have a pitcher that usually pitches well, gets zero run support, and has the propensity for one bad inning almost every start. Milwaukee is near the bottom of the Majors in nearly every relevant offensive category when they are on the road. The Brew Crew is struggling having lost 8 of their last 10 games. The Twins can still score in bunches and should have Plouffe back in the lineup.

    I'm fading 2 road starters here with name recognition who are small favs. You may be able to line watch and get the Padres at better than +111 if King Felix money comes in. I don't have time to line watch all morning though. Also, there may be inclement weather in the Twins/Brewers game so keep that in mind if you do not like tying up your money in a possible rain delay.
