Really good week hitting over 80%. I would have liked to close out the week with a win.
Gonna try something new starting today. I will bold my strongest games. I usually find a couple of games that really stand out then I decide on one. Outside the formula plays will have a score on them. Anything game that ranks a zero is a formula pick, anything that is less than -2 gets considered. Typically, many of the -2 picks are dropped unless and edge is spotted. Remember formula picks are based solely on numbers. Outside plays add the human factor.
Houston +219 - Atlanta the far superior team, but this is a mis-match. Houston could steal this one. Philadelphia -130 - better pitching and bench, but Philly struggling right now. Cleveland -126 Texas +113 - -1 Boston -185 - Juice too high -1 Milwaukee -110 - is on a streak, remember what I said about teams on the rise. -2 Washington -2 Cincinnati - -2 Cleveland - hasn't played in a few days, so I need to get a read on them before I can pick them again. -2 Seattle - crappy team, but with a little rest and back at home, they are better than the Twins.
May 1 - St. Louis +101 - 3 Unit - LOSE May 2 - Chicago Cubs +190 - 7 Unit - LOSE May 3 - Chicago White Sox -125 - 5 Unit - LOSE May 4 - Texas +107 - 10 Unit - WIN May 5 - Texas -116 - 5 Unit - LOSE May 6 - Philadelphia -146 - 5 Unit - LOSE May 7 - Cleveland +179 - 10 Unit - WIN May 8 - Tampa Bay -120 - 10 Unit - WIN May 9 - *Philadelphia -103 - 2 Unit - WIN May 10 - *Detroit +104 - 5 Unit - WIN May 10 - *LA Dodgers +107 - 5 Unit - WIN May 11 - Philadelphia -114 - 3 Unit - WIN May 12 - Arizona +125 - 5 Unit - LOSE May 13 - Chicago WS +109 - 8 Unit - WIN May 14 - Toronto +106 - 9 Unit - WIN May 15 - Florida +112 - 4 Unit - LOSE May 16 - Texas +113 - 6 Unit - PENDING

Good Luck , nice record . If Texas was at home here I would agree with you but it seems to me that they have struggled to score a little on the road this year and I think Nelson Cruz will still be out of this one . The White Sox on the other hand seem to be comming around after a really bad streak and Though Edwin Jackson has a bad record , he has had some tough road losses vs good teams . He is still arguably the better pitcher here too though ...

MrTiger and MILFHUNTER74 - I hear you and your assessment is correct. Sox on the up swing and Rangers struggling. My opinion is the Sox have already peaked. Both teams are about dead even tonight. Pretty close in pitching, pretty close in bench, where they differ is in the bats. Rangers have edge in hitting.
erikhaovo - this is not my strength, but looking at the game. I, I would say that is a bat bet. Kkeep in mind the Angles have better closers and I would not be surprised to see a a tie score at the bottom of 5.

RUSSINGER - I went back and re-ran the numbers on this game and found an error in my script that didn't account for something. Nice catch. I wouldn't have played anyway, but it certainly shouldn't be a formula play.

Status check. 3 - 2 and 4 pending. Of course the only one that matters is Texas. Looking good so far.
Houston +219 - LOSE. Close game. How happy would have been to hit +219 dog? Philadelphia -130 - LOSE Cleveland -126 - WIN (if KC comes back after being down 15 points, shoot me.) Texas +113 - PENDING -1 Boston -185 - PENDING -1 Milwaukee -110 - PENDING -2 Washington - WIN -2 Cincinnati - WIN -2 Seattle - PENDING

I think I am going to change the posting each day. I only want to focus on the one pick per day and the listing of all the games I look at it is distracting from the single pick.
So starting tomorrow I will only list the game I am playing.
