I actually made a play on the Yanks under 95 wins and hedged it mid-season after the all star break for them to go over 36 wins in the 2nd half...I have a greeeeeaaaat Middle..

I need them to finish the season off no worse than 27-27 and no better than 36-18...I was very happy with that middle, I had to play it....

I said all winter I was taking the Rays over and I didn't pull the trigger for some reason...I usually make big prop bet every season in baseball and the Yanks looked better at the time...Def didn't see them and still don't see them winning 95 games.

Also have the Cubs to win the central, Mets to win the East, Yanks to win the East and LA Angels to win the world series at +1000...I was shocked to see them +1000 at the beginning of the year...anyways good luck on all your props as most of them are looking very good:toast:

Nice grab with the Angels. I looked into that play myself but just like yourself I manage not to pull that trigger. I instead took the tribe (shucks). I really liked the dodgers given A) the value at +2250 B) great staff potential (was hoping Penny and Jason can do some damage but the staff is doing great nevertheless) and C)Torre

I didn't take the Yanks under cause I love fading them early on. I did well in doing so but then hit a rough patch after the first 2 months.

Just pulled the trigger on the fish so it looks like we're gonna be biting our nails on this one. At +560 its really a no brainer for me. Rhodes now gives us the left handed arm in the pen which we didn't have.

VoR,

Your Dodger Blue bet just turned the corner here baby! I need to PayPal you some money and see if you can find me a dadgum prop to get the Cubs to win the Central. I wonder that that juice is at right now.

I could not be more happy wth the Cubs season right now VoR. Check out the NCAA forum for me. I dropped in again with a little FUTURE RAMA.
