CalvinTy picks 5-15 to 5-21

[CalvinTy]

Yesterday 1-3 -2.75 units
YTD 5-8 -4.69 units

5/18 plays:

MLB: Was (R. Ortiz) +160 at ChC (K. Wood) 0.5u/0.8u
MLB: CWS (J. Vazquez)/TB (M. Hendrickson) Over 9.5, -115 1.15u/1u
NBA: Pho +5, -110 at LAC 1.10u/1u

No real feel about the Was/ChC game since it's Cubs Kerry Wood's 1st start today & Nationals Ramon Ortiz's WHIP is terrible. I disagree with my 'capper here so I'm not sure what I'll do with this game. Most likely, I'll not play it in my real account. For here, I guess I'll leave a half unit on the big underdog in case Wood underperforms.

Yesterday 1-2 -1.45 units
YTD 6-10 -6.14 units

5/19 plays:

MLB: Min (F. Liriano) at Mil (D. Davis) -155 2.33u/1.5u
MLB: SF (N. Lowry) +120 at Oak (D. Haren) 1u/1.2u
MLB: LAA (J. Weaver) at LAD (A. Sele) -130 1.3u/1u
NBA: Det at Cle +5, -105 1.05u/1u

My 'capper finally indicated a "3 unit" instead of normal "2 unit" play on the Milwaukee game above. Doug Davis's numbers speak for itself so I'm going for 1.5 units here. I am thinking about the Under 9 here as well; if so, I'll post it here.

I also like going against LAA's Jeff Weaver as well. Those interleague matchups this weekend should prove to be interesting.

If u haven't bet yet u should look at pinny they got lowry at like +135 and Davis at like -142.

Total on MIN v MIL is pretty sharp IMO, I prefer the over in PIT v CLE & SDG v SEA (OV 8), cos it is a low number.

I'm with you on MIL & SFO, GL!

Underdogs have been doing well in NBA playoff but I doubt if Detroit will underperform again in Cleveland, especially when they are playing for survival.

Everyone, sorry for the delay. I was not near a computer from Friday evening to Saturday afternoon, then again Saturday evening until now.

A quick update: I only managed to put some bets in my real account before one of the late afternoon baseball games yesterday. I'll update this thread shortly on those as I have to get off for about 15 minutes.

In meantime, while I have the picks ready from the 'capper, I'll post it right now:

MLB: Fla (D. Willis) at TB (S. Kazmir) -140
MLB: SD (C. Ho Park) +100 at Sea (F. Hernandez)
MLB: LAA (E. Santana) +130 at LAD (D. Lowe)
NBA: Cle +8, -115 at Det

FYI, for anyone curious, the lines I post are from Bodog (including today's lousy numbers, dang) but yes, I just set up an account at Pinny. Gahhh, why didn't I do this ages ago? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

MLB: LAA at LAD -139 {W, 4-8}
MLB: Cin +155 at Det {L, 6-7 in 11}
MLB: SD -112 at Sea {L, 3-6}

I only got to make 1 2-team parlay bet on Cincy's Milton & SD's Hansley, so once again, the parlay bet saved me a unit or so instead of straight bet Cincy & SD.

Not a good beginning week, haha. Alright, I have to off computer for a few hours today as well. I'll be back online & in full force tonight. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Kazmir cashes again for me. Chan Ho Park & Ervin Santana had bad outings. Okay, new week coming...

Week of 5-15 to 5-21 summary:

WL record, 10-17; -10.74 units.

Posting all results in the final post just to get a feel of how my first week went. To be honest, this is probably one of the worst weeks that my handicapper had in months, if not ever. Sure, there were 0-4 days that I can remember, but usually came back with 4-0 and 3-1 days as well. Just not this week when I finally post the picks, lol.
