Man is this a weird card on the anniversary of Elvis' death and Madonna's birth, two one-named musical American icons. Dog days of August are a trying time to bet bases, but the astute and disciplined bettor can still turn chicken shit into chicken salad.

I am a guy who makes his living on Totals, and specifically UNDERS, but I see plenty of offense and little to stop it today.


Col/Was OVER 9 -120

ChC/Fla OVER 9 -110

Hou -104
HP Ump Mike Di Muro is 20-4 for the home teams this year. Almost makes you wanna cry "foul!"

YTD: +3.13 Units

Totals 12-4 +8.25
Favorites 4-3 -0.35
Dogs 1-5 -3.84
Parlays 0-1 -1.00
RL 1-1 +0.40
Series 1-2 -0.35 ( Dogs +1.0, faves -1.35)

Forgot to include:

Pit +1.5 -125

Pedro is one of my favorite RHP of all time. He threw the most impressive one-hitter I have ever seen, in Yankee Stadium in Sept of '99, striking out 17. including 8 of the last 9 hitters in a CG win.

However , this ain't '99 anymore, and his fastball is not the same as when we partied like it was Nineteen-Ninety-Nine.

Over looks good too, but I'll settle for this insured bet.

I knew I was forgetting something big. The Babe and The King died on the same day! Imagine the party.......

It is also my sister's BD, which is what reminds of of the other milestones of 8/16, but I didn't think anyone here knew or cared about that.

May scratch that Fla/ChC Over play, since 3 regulars are sitting.

Will be gametime decision

I am gonna leave it alone. ( meaning let it stay as an over play)

Florida has been an OVER play all year, and Cubbies are #1 NL offense. This has been an OVER series for years now. Let er rip!

Wow.

Two straight days of the opponent ( Snakes) batting around in first inning.

Not a very good way to get started, a nickel in the hole before you get to bat.
