Yesterday: 6-4, +3.05 units
YTD: 266-238, +57.61 units

Not only did I break the 1st cardinal rule of betting on the Nats -- don't ever bet on them, ever! -- but I also broke the 2nd cardinal rule as well: if you're going to bet on them, only take the 1st 5 innings.

BoSox bullpen, on the other hand ...

This is looking like it may turn into another 10-plus play day.

Bos/Bal u9 -110
Chi/Pit u8.5 -102
Col/Lad u8.5 -102
Nym/Mil u7.5 +100
Was/Fla u7.5 +116
Fla -1 -106

Sorry for adding these so randomly, and just not all at once. But I'm actually trying to take advantage of the "offer" option at Matchbook instead of just taking what's available immediately.

Bos/Bal u9 -110
Chi/Pit u8.5 -102
Col/Lad u8.5 -102
Nym/Mil u7.5 +100
Was/Fla u7.5 +116
Fla -1 -106
Tor +119
Oak +115
Sf/Stl o7.5 +105
Hou/Sd o8.5 +107
Pit +124

Did I say 10-plus plays? I think I meant 15.

Nice thought on Verlander, Mike. His odds can only get worse.

Aaaand still contemplating a play on Tex as well.

I guess I could be pretty pissed off about the BoSox game, but after last night, it's kind of hard to.

They r not going to keep giving these Alist starters awy cheap for no reason, i got det and it doesnt look like they can hit today. Thats y starting pitching is only 1/3 of the battle to handicap!

I've always had a hard time drawing the line on "too many" so sometimes I'll just play what I like.

Whether I play 12 games today, as opposed to 6 today and just 6 tomorrow, what's the difference? Other than my mental well-being, of course.

They're not too many games as long as you make $$$ when the dust settles at the end of the day.
 
Best of Luck.
