Week 3 Recap

We've certainly rallied since our last recap in the middle of last week.  Over the weekend and since Thursday we went 8-5 and picked up 4.5 units.  We sure hope this is a good indicator for May.  For the year we're now 19-36, down 10 units for a 14.81% return.  

April 30th MLB

We wrap up what may have been a tough month today.  Last week things began to turn and we hope that continues through May.  We'll recap all of last week later today.  For now this is what we're on.

AZ +160
BAL +160
SEA +125
HOU +105
LAD +120

Sunday April 29th MLB

Came back to earth a bit yesterday with an 0-2.  Still a pretty good week so far.  Today we have 4 positions for sure and are waiting to see if we can get a better price with Baltimore, Philadelphia (need to get +100) and Colorado.  Here's what we have today:

CLE +105
SEA +135
HOU +180
TB +120

Friday April 27th MLB

A nice sweep yesterday.  Hopefully the rally continues today.  We have two thus far and may have an add in the CHW/BOS game and in the SD/SF game.

SEA +180
HOU +131

Week 2 MLB Recap

An ugly start for us if you been following along the last two weeks.  Its a long season and are hoping to turn it around.  We try and keep everything above board so we'll run the harrowing last few weeks.  Going into today April 26, 2012 we went 7-27 (is that possible??!!???) and lost 17.5 units.  For the year we're now 11-31and down 14.6 units.  Until we get a bit larger of a sample size we'll chalk this rough patch up to variance (read more here) and keep moving along.

Sunday April 22nd MLB

A rough start so far, but we'll keep grinding.  Here's our full card for today:

CLE +105
CHW -115
CHW/SEA under 7 +100

Friday 4/20 MLB

A bit of a bigger card then yesterday.  If you've noticed we've joined the ITG Team over at http://itglife.com/  You'll be able to find some of our positions over there.  Should help to provide some good independent tracking and having interacted with a lot of the people you should find some more good info.  Here's what we have today:

MIA +115
SF +125
HOU +120
CO +120
AZ +110
BAL +135
OAK +110

BAL +138
CLE +109

Tuesday April 17th MLB

Major League Baseball 2012 Season

Today is our first post for Major League Baseball.  If you've been following us on Twitter @TheSportsMarket, you've gotten the first few of our positions.  We'll be posting here, on Twitter and utilizing Wagerminds for some independent tracking as well.  You can find our profile for them here.  Our tracking may vary slightly from theirs as we utilize a few books to get the best lines.  At Wagerminds you'll be able to see that we're successful against widely available market lines (or at least we hope) and how we should get a little boost by shopping for better lines.

Our approach is fairly simple.  We try to get mediocre or better teams, at dog prices against mediocre or worse pitching.  We play things a little differently earlier in the season, but for the most part you'll see us playing only dogs all year long. The only other thing we change is sometimes playing the under in widely or nationally televised games. With that being said, here's what we're on today, all 1 unit:

Houston +183
NYM +180
SD +185
LAA/NYY under 10 -120
