2012 MLB O/U Record: 191-184-18, -$1,210 (Been making bigger bets this year, with countless bad bullpen breaks, obviously)
2011 MLB O/U Record: 366-270-42, +$1,104
Not slowing down whatsoever, as last night’s 3-1 performance (Including winning all three of my biggest bets) extended my current run to 21-11-2 over the past week-and-change. Actually, I am going to slow down a bit - just for today - as Sundays historically have simply been a laid-back kind of day for me. I especially need that on this very Sunday, as for those who aren’t aware, I do my over/under routine for hours literally every single night (Before doing more over/under studying the nextday for several more hours), but I got home pretty late last night, and was a combination of tipsy and tired, which significantly took away from my focus. Thus, why force several bets today when I knew I wasn’t properly 110-percent into my mindset like I usually am? When you do this stuff every day, you have to recognize the few days where you’re not as into it, and this final Sunday in June certainly qualifies as such. There’s no shame in conceding a few days to The Book Man when you do this every single day for six-plus months. As a result, only one or two games I’m taking from today’s slate (With less analysis, by the way. These type of days are the closest things I have to a day off), although that could change as the day rolls on…
David Price vs Cole Hamels UNDER 7.5 -$20 for $15
Very peculiar move on the part of the linesmakers to list this one at 7.5, as it is a delightful pitching matchup between two premier hurlers in a National League ballpark. For the most part, both studs featured in this one have been their usual excellent selves, but the most striking thing concerning each pitcher here is the fact that they both enter this contest with significant streaks being in overs. Hamels’ last five starts have all gone over, although not particularly because of him, while Price has been involved in three straight such outcomes. That said, while my “feel” wasn’t completely into this one, which is why it’s a small bet, I’ll rely on the general consensus that both pitchers are capable of dominating on any given day, as well as the vastly underrated Law of Averages, which should never be a main reason to take a bet, but I look at it as a little bit of icing on top. Plus, it’s a generous extra half-run we’re being offered. 5-2 can be very possible.
