Wassup everybody? I'm ready to start my first year of full MLB betting, as i did the first part last season and then fizzled out when i hit a bad streak after starting the year out very, very well.

I was looking at the over/unders for the teams and have a few leans that I was hoping people would comment on:
Philly u87.5
Detroit u93.5
Cubs u87.5
ATL o85.5

probably the only 2 i would be close to placing are the Philly UNDER and the Atlanta OVER, but any opinions or other teams i should look at would be greatly appreciated.

i'm still not a believer in the tribe, but thanks for everyone's input.

i've yet to look over schedules like interleague and stuff like that, but the Phillies under looks to be what i'm going to play.

thanks again

ok after doing a little studying on the Phillies' schedule here's what we're looking at:

18 games (9 home, 9 away) vs.: FLA, WASH, NYM, & ATL

Interleague: 3 vs. TOR, 3 vs. BOS, 3 @ TEX, 3 @ OAK, 3 vs. LAA

Non-division: CHC (3 vs. 4@), MIL (4 vs. 2@), HOU (3 vs. 4@), STL (3 vs. 6@), ARI (3 vs. 4@), LAD (4 vs. 4@), SF (3 vs. 3@), SD (3 vs. 3@), PIT (3 vs. 3@), CIN (4 vs. 4@), COL (3 vs. 2@)

the Phils were 89-73 last year, 47-34 at home and 42-39 on the road.

i will do some studying later, but it's time to

lanastasis is an Indians fanboy who is clearly not thinking with his head.

the Phillies play 11 teams with over/under win totals of 84+. They have 84 games against these teams and only 78 against teams with an over/under of 83 or less.

this makes me think the Phils have a tough schedule, and the Marlins at home when it's sprinkling out can steal some games, and hopefully the Nats don't disappoint.

it looks like i will be on the Phillies UNDER 87.5. I'm not sure how much i'm gonna put down, as i lost my OVER 9.5 wins for the Broncos this season (a 10-unit play). I'm thinking 5 units for this one...any input on how much you guys play your futures?

i'm debating not doing it, but it's nice to have something to root for in my opinion...i think it's gonna be a 5-unit play

Philadelphia UNDER 87.5 (-115): 5 units
