Sharing a MLB win % probability betting method (listed in parenthesis with each bet) that I've been working on for a few months.

I tracked these for a month or so and started wagering them in August. There were no qualifiers Aug 1st, 2nd & 5th. Aug 3rd, 4th & 6th (2-1, +0.22 units) I didn't post anywhere. Aug 7th, 8th & 9th (3-0, +3.0 units) are posted at the other forum that I frequent.

I have somewhat of an idea which side and/or total I'll bet about an hr before start time but I don't actually bet until closer to 1st pitch so at any time you decide to follow along you may want to subscribe to the post.

I've noticed there's some sides have higher juice but with the very small sample size thus far there hasn't been much difference in betting the ML vs the -1.5 RL. I may be able to determine which is better with a larger sample size. If you have a book that has a -1 RL that may be beneficial to you with the larger favorites.

Rarely is there more than 1 qualifier on a single day but it does happen. Less is more in my opinion. MLB is a very tough sport to win consistently but I like what I see from this so far. I'll continue for the remainder of the season.

Just to be clear, only one of these bets have been posted here at the RX and I clearly stated that in post #1.

"I tracked these for a month or so and started wagering them in August. There were no qualifiers Aug 1st, 2nd & 5th. Aug 3rd, 4th & 6th (2-1, +0.22 units) I didn't post anywhere. Aug 7th, 8th & 9th (3-0, +3.0 units) are posted at the other forum that I frequent."

Sorry anyone who may have followed. The Athletics scored 6 in the 1st and blew the under while the Padres gave up 3 runs in the 1st after an error and, after coming back and taking the lead the Pads gave it up in the bottom of the 8th. That's gambling.

We got shafted today. Why? Because Cease only pitched 1 inning in his last start (which was a rain delay game) and was too tight and had no control until the 4 th inning.
He'll be money again in 5 days.
SD was the right play IMO.. I lost as well.
