As the season nears what are you guys doing to prepare? There is a virtual sea of information out there, what information means the most to you and why? Thanks

I take a long hard look at pitching staffs, especially bullpens. With so much player movement there is no way to compare last years staffs with the this years. I also look into how projected starters come out of the gate. Many pitchers are slow to come around and are good bet againsts in April, natrually others are the opposite. A good example is Wade Miller starting right hander for the Houston Astros. The last two years in April (combined) he went 0-5 with an ERA over 7:00 and an opponets batting ave. over 3:00. Painstaking a bit, but still worth the effort imo.

I am setting myself up for the best possible scalp situations.

Yankee's over at home. No lefties pitching so lots of lefties hitting it against them over that short right field wall. And if that doesn't do it the Yanks might be able to put up a few runs also....

I am going on record and saying that betting the Yankees OVER for the entire year will produce a figure in the RED.

All I have heard since the AROD trade is how everybody is recommending to bet the OVER in every game.

Dont you think the oddsmakers know this???

The lines will be inflated so much, look for good value on the UNDER.........especially in certain situations.

stat fox stat fox stat fox and also stat fox. this is at its best for baseball no question about it. also having as much info on pitchers who may be on a pitch count or pitchers hiding injurys

the yankees have absolutely no speed. that line up isnt dynamic for beans. all power. anytime they face good pitching the under is a value becuase the only way that line up can score is to double or go yard. its not like they all bat .330
