7-01

$469 Rockies +174, (Bettis/Hahn) L

$469 Phillies +107, (Lohse/Harang) L

$469 White Sox +136, (Quintana/Lackey) W

YTD 94-63, +$10,274.81 (+23.9% RoR)

7-02

$446 Rangers +121, (Gallardo/Gausman)

$446 Nationals -188, (Scherzer/Banuelos)

$446 Rockies +142, (Rusin/Hellickson)

BOL

Rockies: Play to +104. Gallardo is hot, 7 straight quality starts and an offense currently producing 5.8 offensive earned runs per 9.

Natinals: Play to -224. Scherzer is the best in the business right now and should get the start for the N.L. All Star team. Banuelos is a bone being thrown to the dogs (why burn a decent chucker versus Scherzer?).

Rockies: Embarrassing stint at Oakland but regardless of the standings the A’s are a far better team than the Dbax and Hellickson could not make the rotation there. Lefties are the weaker probability for the Dbax, but righties are the stronger side for the Rockies.

Going out for a couple hours, cya later

One more note before I go. Someone last night said he went all in on the ChiSox +1.5. Just to be clear, I absolutely HATE the +1.5 run line at heavy juice, which it almost always carries. The simple way to look at is "If I need to pay heavy juice for a dubious advantage, I probably should not be playing that game at all".

Hey guys, what did I say about my plays and key's colliding?  Yep, keys is going to win.  He takes tex, I take balt.  Sucks to be me. 

keys got this so bet with confidence

Now I got to hedge my play because balt is going to lose.  Do allow me to tail keys moneyball with...

Wash -1  just to shave off them odds.

Key, is it worth playing Wash -1.5 for less juice? Is here value there instead of laying a ton of juice, even though Scherzer is best in class?

While Scherzer has pitched great this year,he's still prone to give up the long ball.The lack of run support is why he has 5 losses this year.If the kid and bullpen keeps the runs at 3 or under,then the Braves have a chance at home.Never liked going against pitchers i've never seen because you don't really know who is going to show up.

You are using the decimal line.  (-200) = 1.5.....meaning on both you win 50 cents on every dollar wagered.

You trying to mush Key's plays? What's with the "danger" comment? 

"Home field advantage" in MLB is an overrated public perception that probably doesn't factor too much in Key's analysis. That's my hunch anyway.
