  • 3 Wise Men MLB Sunday 5/22/05 UPDATED

    A few short notes:

    First , a word or two on record keeping … although we knew ahead of time to play the weekend real close to the vest The 3 Wise Men are still counting the weekend’s results for full value . With intangibles like this and a few perks now and then we’ll all realize at season’s end that we will have done a lot better than what our bottom line will indicate. We are not about “window dreassing “ … that’s the least of our concerns.

    In addition … we may start eliminating –140 plays soon and set our limit to –130 or -135 tops. I want to consult with my partners first. I’m sure you’ll agree it’s not in all our best interests to have to hit 60% of those kinds of plays and break even laying –150 ( or lose with >-150 ) Not our style. All the fine Cappers in BC have their own way of shearing sheep. We have ours …We don’t like vig.


    The Plays for Sunday:

    1 ½* Pittsburgh -140 or less

    1* Arizona -105

    1* Toronto -135

    1* Atlanta +105

    2* San Diego -115

    ½* San Diego ( -1 ½ +135 )

    ½* Angels of Anaheim +135

    1* Oakland –115

    Note: The Angels, Yankees and Indians all look like dynamite Run Line plays at +1 ½ but the lines are high.

    Alert

    If you cant get Pittsburgh at -140 or better, then consider laying 1 Run
    with them at even money .

    Frank B did that with the Mets last week and I passed it on to you (
    remember ? ) and we won.

    (Pittsburgh today falls into a similar situation today as the Mets did last
    week )


    **************************************

    Saturday Result:

    1* San Francisco -105 Won

    2* San Diego -105 Loss

    **************************************

    1 ½* …. 14-8 ….. +495 ….. +745

    1* ….... 38-43 ….. -960 ….. -960

    ½* ….. 18-6 ….. +1320 ….. +660

    Summary of all plays:

    83 - 65 overall

                    I always take your advise Neil, and did cut back as you suggested. Didn't get hurt at all. Thanks for all the time and effort you put in around here.

                              Hey Jack I know what you mean but there are lots of times we get whipsawed thinking that a team will bounce then they come back and get beat again ... especially in baseball where there are 162 games. In football playing the bounce ( along with other factors ) has a lot more merit.

                              Yeah Saturday's results left a bad taste in our mouth after seeing what happened on Friday.

                              Just starting the 2nd Quarter of the season though ... so many more plays ahead of us.

                              Hang in there and Best of Luck !
