am i the odd man out here?
you are talking about team streaks, i pick up here and there about team's lack of hitting, whether they are last or first, etc.
it is all very interesting, but in my limited, but sucessful experience, it still boils down to pitcher vs. pitcher and finding the right odds. game selection should be first, but based on pitching match-ups and looking for that extra value.
i am not following bb every day, mainly just sundays, but just about every sunday there are (perceived) odds aberrations, i look for them, analyze, and if right in my opinion, jump on them. this includes jumping on have nots such as tampa, etc., which have yielded the best results odds wise, but only when the pitching match-up is right.
there has been talk about the umpires, wind speed, humidity, attendance? should the handicapper not key on the main elements, and then use smaller variables as re-inforcements? when i hear talk about that, it appears like some of you are starting out from the premise of a streak, overdue, etc., thereby disregarding the main element, which in my mind is looking for value, eliminating toss-ups, etc.
atlanta is not hitting: nothing that livan hernandez and pitchers like that can't cure.
i don't know, tell me i've missed something here.
