    FYI, you may see fewer Totals for the foreseeable future as I am trying not to lay more than -110 on those until I get my Juju back.

    I wouldn't say that I'm obsessed, I'm just confused. I cant figure out why you clowns keep tailing and asking for advise from a man who's clearly losing at baseball betting.Thats like me asking OJ Simpson for advise on how to fix my marriage.

    10.5 is a monster total in baseball. I get 9 Median, 9.115 Average. Happy to take the plus money odds at 9.5 I got yesterday.

    Doesn't happen much, but as you can see, both teams great on Overs and both pitchers have been stinking it up. Sometimes I don't agree with the numbers I come up with, but I have no probs with this one.

    I put more weight on long-term numbers than on season-to-date until shortly after the All-Star break, and both starters grade out well in that sense. Also Braves at home before this season is meaningless.

    Braves Home this Season

    OU: 16-10-0 (1.71, 61.5%) avg total: 8.6 over / under: +$520 / -$716 ROI: +18.0% / -25.2%


    Have you had any luck with guys like Weaver with those long term numbers vs short numbers? Guys hit the end of the road at some point. Harvey and Teheran could possibly be heading there. Just saying.

    You have it wrong. It is high BECAUSE of who is pitching.

    Oh starters get adjusted over time, Weaver has been downgraded several times the last few years. To put it another way, long term numbers are weighted heavier for recent seasons, I just think adjusting for CURRENT season before All-Star break is too soon due to sampling issues. Exceptions would be underlying issues like obvious change in velocity or pitchers adding a new pitch. But for the most part, I let them pitch it out over half-season or so before reacting to avoid recency bias.

    And Harvey and Teheran are both young, they are nowhere near the end of the road.

    These pitchers also faced their opponent 3 times each already this year, with Over going 5-1, and the only reason the Over didn't hit the one time is cuz ,the Braves gave up 6 runs and scored 0. The Braves scored 18 in those games and the Mets scored 15.

    All I'm saying is the line appears justified to me.

    I understand your logic overall, and you know I respect you and have learned a lot from you, you're obviously more experienced at this. We just have a little disagreement about this number and I thought you was getting a bit defensive about it when all I do is show respect to you. It's all good.

    They may be young but the talent may be going and then again, it could just be a phase or a bad season, it happens. I just think with about 12 starts into the season, is a little safer to rely more on this seasons numbers.

    I broke one my rules of going into somebody's thread and posting something against one of their plays, I usually try to only post positive things relating to someone's play.

    I think this is the last season LT will go with his models if he loses 30 units or more

    He will have to make adjustments

    Not at all, where did you sense that.

    I was just explaining my philosophy of being more of a long-term guy that dies not tend to knee-jerk to recent outings, I believe more in regressing to the mean.

    Maybe more of a projection because I broke my rule. It's easy to do in here, because so many people ask questions and even though their for you, it's hard for me not to try to give my thoughts.
