        Baseball is a grind JJ, for bettors and players.

        Gotta pace yourself and not bet too many games. Dont chase with late night action, always a recipe for disaster.

        Have done well this season, hit a bit of a losing streak lately. Will take it slow for a while, too much losing is hurting my psyche.

          I cant be the only one getting chewed up on mlb

          Shyt is frustrating as fukk, specifically these last 3 weeks... Shiit aint even been close.

          Bullpens (worst of all)
          Scrub pitchers trowing gems
          Power teams cant hit
          Aces getting light up

          Obviously not every great pitcher is gonna throw a perfect game every outing and vice versa with the shytty ones but man...hardest of all is gauging effort level on day to day basis. You just never know with baseball players.

          At least playoffs right now u know your getting effort. Gotta pick my spots a bit better from now on.

              The amount of bad losses by teams with superior ability must be like 3 levels above standard deviation. The Rangers are the streakiest bunch of fuks on the planet

                  Exactly... Rangers finally play some teams under .500 after 3 straight weeks of playing winning teams and go 3-4 against them. WTF?

                  I think I am going to start fading myself in baseball. I am on a bad losing streak lately. I think I am making plays that make sense, but the opposite happens. For example the Mariners/Indians game the other night with Felix/Ubaldo pitching, I had under 7.5 in that game and it goes over in the 3rd inning. Ridiculous, those 2 pitchers have started all star games and won Cy Youngs and were facing lousy offenses to boot.

                              Problem is that baseball is the only thing going on in July and August... my money makers are college football and basketball but those only go on for 7 months out of the year.

                                Wed. night I picked 6 games I loved. 5 baseball and the amazing 76r's on the ML to crush the arthritic Celtics. Ended up 1-5 for the night. I also took a 875/500 lead on Halladay for Thursday thinking that was great value and would buy back a scalp or let it ride if Wed. was good to me. My normal bets these days are $100-200 per game. After getting my ass handed to me yet again I decided to bail on the Phillies who dropped to -160 at the time. What the hell, bought the Cubs back on the runline and basically forgot about it until I saw an update on espn. Phillies 8-3 late. Turn off light go to sleep...hahaha Cubs score 4 in the 9th to cover runline. Get it all back on minor miracle. Not sure what my point is here but yeah bases is upside down this year. Good luck and stay the hell away from this interleague steaming shitshow.

                                        It's slow in the summer out here on the farm. All of the women are gone til pickin' season and that makes the farm animals nervous; so we bet baseball to pass the time. Roll Tide?

                                                I was treading water all season, but have taken a beating this past week to fall several units below even.

                                                think I am going to use a totally different strategy the next few days and see what happens

                                                      JJ, you should try betting tennis. When Djokovic was down a break in the second set to Monaco yesterday, I felt like I might fall into a depression ... I take every Friday off -- I don't bet on any favorites; maybe take a swing at 1 or 2 dogs -- just to give my mind and body a break from the anxiety.

                                                      Perhaps you just need to take one day off a week just to give yourself a break from worrying about MLB wagering.

                                                          I'm not worn down yet. I am up for the year so as long as I stay up I dont think I will get worn down.

                                                          Its when you are losing that it wears on you.
