Bailes, we don't play Thursdays, not enough action. We'll reload tomorrow, gotta look into setting up at BOL, my only other out. R.A. pointed something out that now makes a whole lotta sense to me, been chasing a ghost for over 6 months now and I think, with R.A.'s help, I've caught it. C'ya tomorrow.

This is just more evidence of how August has been going, by the end of the month last year, I was up over half a mil, this season sucks:
Win 4 Team Parlay
Cancelled 8/16/17 8:05pm MLB Baseball 908 Chicago Cubs -1 -169* vs Cincinnati Reds (H Bailey - R must Start J Lackey - R must Start)
Win 8/16/17 8:05pm MLB Baseball 918 Texas Rangers -1 -138* vs Detroit Tigers (A Sanchez - R must Start C Hamels - L must Start)
Cancelled 8/16/17 7:10pm MLB Baseball 923 New York Yankees/New York Mets Over 8 -135* (J Garcia - L must Start R Gsellman - R must Start)
Win 8/16/17 7:10pm MLB Baseball 925 St. Louis Cardinals +1½ -135* vs Boston Red Sox (L Lynn - R must Start E Rodriguez - L must Start)
I think we gotta start considering the position clubs are in right now. There's no excuse for the Cubs, Lackey was 6-0 lifetime against the Reds, now 7-0 but that score is stupid and he actually doesn't get the win. And I let Baron get in my head with that Yanks total, but it made sense, Gsellman has an 8+ ERA of late, why wouldn't ya take over. Anyway, back to my point. There's a number of teams out there so far ahead in the division that they'll be "resting" key players on a daily basis. Stros, Nats and Dodgers to be specific. Stros are banged up but somehow pulled a rabbit out of its hole against Zona so far. Nats are banged up, got Harper now on the DL, along with Werth, Harper is a big loss, leads the team in HR's and RBI's. Only thing that might keep the Dodger engine running is a record of some sort. If I'm not mistaken, they're on pace to set the single season win #, I might be wrong, correct me if I'm mistaken. Just sayin we gotta keep things in mind we normally wouldn't when capping games. GLTA!

Opening total? 12? 12.5?
Yeah Bailes, we were on the right side of that Cards game last night, when I first saw the play from Ty, thought he'd lost a marble or two, but then I got to thinking about the big picture, and they're in the hunt both division AND WC so I had zero problem putting them in. Unfortunately, they decided to lose by a run, LOL. But I think my message was made clear and I'm gonna keep the "races" in mind when selecting teams.

Just a housekeeping note or two. This being Thursday, we don't play. Not enough action, although this is the first Thursday this season, I believe, that has more than 9 games....11 today. We'll continue to play at 5Dimes, I'm well funded and nothing other than losing or winning will change that. If for some unbelievable run of bad luck we drain the team balance, which sits at $533 as of today (I paid for that second par last night), then we'll be jumping ship. R.A. brought up an issue with making deposits at 5Dimes and I'm glad he did as three separate attempts were made to use my debit card this year alone, one was at a Western Union in Cali, and I haven't been to the west coast in the past 18 years, and the other two were out of the country. I'm on my fourth card since January first, lol, and trust me, it's a pain in the ass as I make all my payments either on-line or have them set up to withdrawal off the card. So we'll move to BOL if need be, they don't offer as many wagering opportunities, but I've never had security issues with them. So I'll expect plays tomorrow, preferably winnas, lol. We're getting there, I mean who in their right mind would expect Colorado to score 17 runs last night???

Shale, that over is a dimester delux, Feldman's pitching over a 10 ERA right now, and Lester is just about 5. Don't like the batting avg's against the prospective RH/LH pitching, but that never has seemed to matter in this situation. I'm banging the hell out of over, might buy it to 11.5. GL
