The Sports Investing Professional - Tuesday

Yesterdays Recap - just remember one thing....."Closer" is just a "C" away from "LOSER"
The Giants should have cruised but Idiot Boy Wilson had to turn an easy winner into
a cardio workout. The bottom line, however, is that we pick up a nice $500 piece of change
to add to our pie.

Today's Play(s) - This one is tough because the lay is so heavy. Of all the
games and totals I look at I think the biggest mismatch is Verlander vs Chen.
Question for me is to play the whole game or just the first 5. If you've watched
the Tigers lately, you know that they can't seem to get anyone out from their pen
and so I really don't want any part of that. I see the Tigers bouncing out to the
early lead and then after the 5th I don't care what happens. Let's take the bullpen
out, play ONLY THE FIRST 5, and gut it up to make the lay.

The Sports Investing Professional - Monday

Well there is no Sunday to recap since we had the day
off so lets get right into today's action.....

Today's Play(s) - There is a qualifying play today...at least
in my eyes. We'll go back out to the west coast and look
at the San Francisco Giants. They are one of MLB's top
home teams and they have the good fortune of catching
Florida on a little 3 time zone overnight flight. A few of
you have asked and it's not an automatic to play against
teams who travel cross country but that can be one check
mark if there are other things to go with it.

For San Fran Cain has been the model of consistency on the
mound all year and for Florida you have West who like many
young pitchers will look great in his first few starts but it doesn't
take long for the league to get the book on you so a combo
of factors here leads me to the Giants as my investment
for today.

MLB - San Francisco Giants -165 [LISTED] West / Cain - 825.00 / 500.00
