Closer X - You are doing a great job. You are looking at the right stats (it's telling you had same 2-team parlay Bodio posted - and you had it up last night before his post). In other words, I give credence to your methodolgy and thought-process. Your logic is sound.

That being said, baseball is NOT about records (33-11), it's about units. Going 33-11 backing -175 favorites is much different than doing it with +120 dogs. Regardless, your record is GREAT - keep up the good work. I (strongly) think you should be including UNITS for your records.

Good luck!

Thank very much for your advice. I have actually been thinking about this a lot lately. I have been trying to add in as many lower juice plays s i can. It really just has to do with the numbers i get after capping the games.

The biggest hurdle i am encountering is that from what i have studdied. negative runlines are incredibly hard to make money on in the long run because so many games are decided by 1 point. So wen i cap out a game and like a team that is favored, i run into this predicament.

Like i said at the begining, i am new to betting MLB. I studied it everyday since the NBA season ended but thats it.

If anyone has any advice on how to do this better, i would really appreciate hearing is. **i am not saying this with sarcasm*

Also, i can start including my units both in my picks and my tally.

oh, and when i do see value in dog ml's i jump on them imediately. Trust me, they are my favorite bets. An example would be with the white sox today.

one last thing. i dont know why a bunch of people think i am bragging with my record. I just post my picks and post the winners/losers. I have never claimed to be great or put anyone down for their plays. I hve actually tried to always be nice to everyone.

If posting my units would help get rid of that impression, i am all for it.

**btw, i wrote this from my phone.. so im sorry for any grammar errors. the buttons are small lol
