Matty Rain's 2024 MLB Betting Thread

there was one around the corner from my lawschool... I spent more time there than the library...
I used to go to the one on 37th between 7th and 8th when my mom first moved into NYC. I was 12.

Above it was the bookmaker with a 3 legged cat, a guy named Frankie Avalon, a 80 year old guy that guarded the door w a knife and more cocaine and degenerate vibes than you can imagine.

No I didn’t do the cocaine lol.

Their cumulative batting WAR (1.4) is currently the lowest in the league with the injuries to their main guys. It's not even close. Reds, Marlins and Rockies are almost tied for 2nd (around 9-10)

Still, the model has them as a +164 dog today, so we'll take the +175.
 
So I watch a lot of baseball. Watching the Tankees and every time I hear them say how good they are with Judge playing so poorly, they are bound to get better.

I scream at my laptop “You think Soto isn’t going to level off”?

Today that line looked suspicious, and now I’m kicking myself for not pulling the trigger on Oakland
