5-0-1 yesterday, with la/sf ppd. nothing to get too excited about yet, but system has performed consistently this week. for sunday:
atl/fla over 8-
stl/hou under 9
la/sf under 7
cws/det under 9
kc/cle under 8-
tex/sea over 8-
one of the components of my totals system is umpires, so i try to keep track of their tendencies. occasionally they compel me to take a side. today, i already liked cincy as a live home dog based upon dempster's recent form, then looked a home plate ump wegner's history. he is one of the major's most consistent "homer" umps, with the home teams going 79-44 (64%) over the last five years, and never under 60% in any given year. in addition, ryan dempster is 3-0 in games called by wegner, with an era under one.
so, one side today:
cincy +120
