My partner passed on Oak as they have lost 8 of 10. we bet SF at -122 (even though they have lost 7 of 10). Will not bet tex even though the odds are good. good luck!

I bet the A's because they played well enough to win last night.

When you say Tex and SF you're talking about those games, not those teams right? I have Bos (vs. Tex) going from -270 to -280 to -254 and AZ (vs. SF) going from -135 to -122.

I'm following an interesting trend that may turn out to be nothing. It's when a team gets a worse price of about 5 points and then gets better by 10+ points. In every case I've followed (about half a dozen) the team getting the better price wins. Bos would fit this scenario today. I'm thinking about taking them on the RL.

Quantum, nice pick on Oak! We saw none of last night's Oak- NYY game, so your reasoning was solid. You were correct about the Bos line move; my partner WILL bet Bos if the line keeps declining. We have SF opening at -135, and bet them at -122. My partner is looking at CWS, LAA. Good luck!

My mistake on SF. You're right, it went from -135 to -122 and is now down to -118. I'm looking at those as well as Pit. Pit has hit over 20 points of a change which causes red flags to come up for me. Also, I was hoping Atl would fall in my scope but they have fallen off the radar.

Was the Minny pick based on line movement at the last minute. Any night games?

That was a big concern for me but I disregarded that late line movement. I made my choice on previous line movement along with quite a few other factors such as recent performance. Line movement simply brings up the game on my radar and then I look at it more closely.

I should have more picks closer to gametime.

Nice day so far yo.

Thanks doc. Got the 2 dogs early. I'm still secretly stewing about those 2 dogs I didn't get yesterday by 1 run each. Time to move on I guess.

Where were you for our "Fade the Yankees" thread?
