Tuesday Plays
Mar 31st
Texas Rangers +183 for Game (1.1) [5Dimes]
Minnesota Twins +125 for Game (1.7) [5Dimes]
Florida Marlins +186 for Game (1) [5Dimes]
Toronto Blue Jays +153 for Game (1.5) [BetJM]
I like the TOR 5in line better if you can get it near +145. Also like the TEX 5in line better if you can get it near +170.
I will not be around for the 5in lines tomorrow, so I just took the full game ones.
Monday Results
Mar 31st
1-3-1 (-4.30 units)
Got rocked today. I guess I should have made them full game plays.
Sunday Results
Mar 31st
1-0-0 (+1.68 units)
Good start to the season thus far.
I saw the movie “21″ tonight. Not bad if you haven’t read the book, Bringing Down The House. I highly recommend the book.
Updates to ESPN and BP
Mar 28th
Some updates to the ESPN and Baseball Prospectus websites screwed up a lot of the data I was downloading into my excel spreadsheet, so it will take me a few hours to correct it. I’ll try and find some time this weekend before the games start on Monday.
I guess this is what happens when you do things on time…
Wednesday Results
Mar 26th
1-0-0 (+2.50 units)
No listed pitchers for tomorrows games as of now. If they are not posted by BetJM soon, I will not have any plays.
Wednesday Play
Mar 25th
Oakland Athletics +100 for 1st 5 Innings (2.5) [BetJM]
I got internet access at a library so I have 1 play for tomorrow. As of now, no other pitchers have been listed yet, so I have no more plays.
For future reference, on all favorites I will be list my risk amount, not my to win amount.
Tuesday Results and BetJM

I am totally stoked. BetJM is now offering overnight 5-inning lines. Finally. You should check them out if you do not have an account there.

Tuesday Play

MLB
OAK +147 (1.5) [SuperBook]
You should be able to get a better line than this (probably at matchbook?). Don’t settle for anything less.
I am very limited in my play posting ability. I’m running on something worse than 56k internet (I can’t even access matchbook), so I’m not sure how many plays I’ll get up this week. I’ll be at full strength on Saturday.
