Had Houston as a dog in their season opener!
They're getting more runs than expected via "small-ball" and have
decent pitching in comparison.  They're going to be a pretty good dog
by hitting the whole season long.

I agree with you Pendo. I had Houston too in the opener. Felt pretty good to hit that one. They'll be finding themselves in a lot of classic money spots this season. Houston may just finish in the black (units won) this year. Then again maybe not, still a lot work to do, and they weren't able to take any of that season opener magic with them anywhere.

For 4.22.2013 Take:

#971 Oakland Athletics +143 ($616 to win $794.64)
over the Boston Red Sox

*List Anderson/Lester (definitely list Lester)

*The Oakland A's are 36-13 (73.5%, +30.83 units, +58.6% roi) since 2012 after 4+ games on the road. 22-8 +17.56 units after win.
*Jon Lester is just 11-19 (36.7%, -20.66 units, +60% roi fade) as a home favorite since 2011. 
*That's a real nasty 3-14 (17.6%, -21.15 units, +114.1% fade) for -150 to -200 at home since 2011.

So far no one wants any part of Oakland today (nearly 0% of the public bets) even though they smoked Boston yesterday 13-0.

Oh my God. Pardon me. That game closed at -280 or above -250 in most books so it simply didn't get logged in my database. 

PLEASE forgive me for that one. I will have to try harder when checking my stats.

Thanks for the advice...
