    Yup .. and just so you know they are my team and I hate them right now. But I love Gio and he's on the mound.

    You hate them? I would have thought the past year and a half have been the best ever for Nationals fans! I've certainly become more endeared towards them since last season, really took over where the Phillies left off. I thought Werth was mad going there a couple of years ago when his stock was high but man they've improved so well.

    Anyway this is a betting log not baseball discussion so I'll stop. Congrats on the recent run of good results and hope it keeps up tonight! Angels look like they've found their bats again so I like that pick.

    :)

    Ah no I love the Nats always will, have suffered enough over the last decade but just the last few weeks they've been killing themselves. Mind you Mr Harper was terrific last night to make up for his error the night before that cost us the win.

    Betting log going well so happy out at the moment!

    Just seen WilliamHill do a -1 run handicap which is refunded if they only win by 1 run and is always a better price than the moneyline, might interest you as something to look into!

    On a side note I've taken out €100 and donated it here, I thought I would post it up on the log and feel free to donate yourselves if your feeling generous :

    http://www.mediaconcepts.ie/johnnyhayden/

    It's a complete horror story, the husband is paralysed from the chest down after an operation but with a further six months rehab there's a very strong chance he'll walk again.

    His missus was six weeks pregnant on the third child when this happened. The little girl was born recently & they've called her Hope. They need €36k to keep him in rehab otherwise he comes home confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life as they've run out of funds and the friends & supporters of the family have exhausted all avenues for income.

    Basically they need the money by May 31st so if any of you have a few quid to donate from your winnings dont be shy and go for it! :D:D:D

    Any idea as to why the Phillies/Nationals game has disappeared from betting markets?

    Thanks for this man I'll look into it, I think that the stats will tell me the margins are too thin for there to be value in it for me but it's always worth looking at other markets incase our friends in the bookmaking industry are making small errors.

    Yeah as I said majority of your picks win so even if they win by 1 its a refund but when they do win by more your getting good value

    Did you get paid out for the Braves winning against the Mets on Saturday following the rain suspension?
    Betfair voided my bet.

    Yeah Betfair sportsbook replied..apparently if a game is suspended they use the result at the time of suspension to decide the market..thus as it was 5-5 the result was Push

    Congrats on the big score, and great thread. Pity I know f**@ all about baseball :)

    Do you follow all these games, or do you just check the scores in the morning ? Stopped backing American sports myself since I got a job and wasn't able to stay up and watch them :(

    Depends on the night, I usually just get up and check the next morning, love the game though so Friday and Saturday i'll be up watching as much as I can.

    After the biggest score comes the worst night! Probably got my mixes wrong looking back, Padres and Cub should have been stronger and Nats and Red Sox should have been for the bigger accy. Anyway these things happen!

    Bad night again! White Sox and Padres no shows and Cardinals losing a 2-1 lead in the 9th.

    I'll be away for the weekend and I dont think i'll be able to get on but here but we'll see what happens. Obviously a little slowdown over the last two nights and looking at tonight's fixtures we've got some great match ups , really hard to call alot of these games but we'll have a go anyway!
