    More antiquated thinking. You seriously need to stop.

    Look at PIT/LAD or DET/TEX today. The "right side" of "line movement" is a complete non-sequitur.

    I'd seriously invite you to start tracking your % on plays where you crush the closing number.

    You'd be shocked at how irrelevant it is now.

    I have been tailing for the most part and the majority of his plays that he kills the closing number have lost...He would never track that though because it would defeat the point of his model

    100% FALSE, that is the same thing as saying the line you get does not matter. That is just ludicrous in nature, especially in an efficient market. Unless you believe MLB is an inefficient market, which is equally absurd. Even if the games where you SMASH the closing line do have a losing record in the short term, consider that you still "win" by losing less on those plays by getting the better price. I think I did have a losing record on games where I beat the closer by 30+ points less year, but limiting the damage by getting good lines on the losers contributed to the +93 season.

    So I guess what I am saying is that getting good lines ALWAYS matters ever when you have a losing record.

    And I know you do this year.

    See what I'm getting at?

    You know what "matters"? Picking winners.

    Of course picking winners is paramount, but beating closers is equally important because its a win-win. (Either you win or you lose less than you would have vs. closer). That latter part usually gets by those that think beating closers means nothing.

    As I just said, was 4-1 when I posted. That was far from 'over' with Cueto and the Baltimore bullpen. I posted before the three runs in blink of an eye.

    Up-to-Date -6.38 YTD as we begin new week Monday. Still in the running for winning season.

    Yup, I personally think you will have a winning season...just the banter needs to stop is all....and to be only down 6 units after 600,000 plays in a season is pretty remarkable

    I do have 1 serious question though....how do you change up model for the end of the season games when teams that are out of it are playing a majority of reserves?

    Precisely why volume goes down in September, I have to be doubly careful with lineups. And when in doubt, pass regardless of model variance.
