[Home On The Range]

I'd play Minnesota anyways

[SlumpBuster]

I wouldn't play Minnesota just because they are playing Seattle. King Felix is pitching for the M's. Gotta remember Home the best teams in the league only win 60% of their games and the worst teams usually win 40% of theirs.

[TheWiesguy]

who do you pick in a situation like KC Chicago when there are some positive situations on both sides.

Do you go gut or reason?

Gut: Royals are a team on the rise looking to make a statement

Reason: Sox are at home on opening day

Gut: Meche is better than Buehrle and 7-3 lifetime against sox

Reason: Buehrle is 19-9 against KC

I really like KC for good value this year. Go Royals..at least for today!!

[SlumpBuster]

In those cases I don't bet

But the smart play, in the long term, if you were going to get action would be to take the underdog.

[TheWiesguy]

agreed...I always go underdog. But sometimes that is the problem.

[Sports Betting Phenom]

When does your gut instinct just come it to play too though, I mean if you watch enough B-Ball like I do, you start to get a feel for when a club is hot or not, same with how a pitcher is playing at certain times of the year...

Sometimes you just know when a #1 guy is going to have a bad day...
