Betting - One Nail in the Coffin?

Record 10-17

Bank Account -1205

Reds at Yankees - No way my boys lose to Bronson Arroyo. Bet Yankees $320 to win $200. Bombs away for the Yanks tonight!

A's at Giants - Love Jarrod Parker for Oakland. Take the A's $100 to win $100.

Cards at Dodgers - Love Ted Lilly this year, but I expect Lance Lynn to rebound. Bet the Cards $125 to win $100.

Mets at Blue Jays - Jon Niese has been solid, but look for Ricky Romero to bounce back from a poor effort against the Twins. Bet the Blue Jays $148 to win $100.

Rangers at Astros - Wow, this is a nice value pick and I am going to unload. Bet the Rangers -1.5 $200 to win $220.

I didn't look at any trend numbers as these are my first impressions. Lets see if this makes a difference. I will add all solid gamblers shake it up when things are not going well. My odds are still 50/50 regardless if I look at trends or not. Keep that in mind.
