Angel Campos has a very small LOW zone. (proven) Angel runs a K/BB ratio that rests in the 2.20-2.40 range during the last few seasons, but he's become a terror to pitchers during the first weeks of 2010. He was deceptive to me, because he had a 15-17 Over/Under record in 2009 (17-5 in 2007), but his numbers, aside from the high home run rate, were all pointing to an UNDER umpire (Strike Rates, K/BB, Pitcher matchups...

My original use of the term "King Maker" comes from a baseball handicapping system that I developed a few years ago. The King Maker System was an extremely popular subject at Pregame and it exploded with the help of my partner (The Game/JD). With his help, we gathered as many as 2,200-3,000 page views during a period when Pregame had a much smaller membership base. In the end, I can thank the King Maker System for my... Read more

Note: I just posted the pick alert over my old Blog so that I wouldn't take up space in the Forum: I'd like to apologize for not posting plays, but it wasn't out of some innate need to screw anyone. I've been privately running a 45% win rate (which is not marketable, and not what I'm accustomed to), and it's taken me two weeks to get back on track. Two weeks ago I realized that a sizeable chunk of my system... Read more

Embrace an Indian if you can! Laffey Should be able to hold Detroit down Backing Cleveland is never a happy experience, but sometimes you have to go with the facts and let it ride. The Backside? Yeah Cleveland has one of the worst bullpens in recent memory, but I'm almost certain that Perez will be replaced by a little known lefty named Tony Sipp (3 innings 6K's and 1 Walk), and I think we might luck out,...

DO WHAT YOU WANT WITH THIS INFORMATION: After all, it's your money.... The Boston Game Is More Likely To Exceed 9 Runs. The drawback comes first: Lester is actually getting his strike-outs (22/7 K/BB), but he's really missing the zone on batters and it appears that he's falling into hitter's counts on far too many occasions. He struck out 7 in a recent game, but hit 114 pitches after 6 innings of work. This... Read more

The Adverse Affects of an OVER Umpire Gerry Davis and Mark Buehrle Mark Buehrle is a southpaw pitcher for the The White Sox. In many ways, this is your next Jamie Moyer in the making. He's a guy that has to have his "edges" and if they get taken away his pitches become VERY hittable. He no longer has any real power, and his "movement" is his only true weapon. So this is a pitcher that DEPENDS on an UNDER or NEUTRAL... Read more
