Week in Review
 
The Baseball Handicapper managed a small profit for the week going 5-4 while winning .08 Units. We are now +1.28 units on the season. It was see-saw week winning our first 3 decisions, then losing 3 in a row and then going 2-0 on Saturday.  On Sunday we had 1 Best Bet (Arizona) where we took a 2-0 lead into the ninth. The DBacks couldn't hold it however, and they lost 4-2 in 10 innings.  Arizona now has 11 blown saves this season, most in all of Baseball and 23 Save Opportunities, 2nd most in MLB.  This 52% Save Rate however places the DBacks near the bottom of the ranks.
 
We had 9 Best Bets on the week, a slight pickup from week 1. We lost our first (and only) 3 unit play and have not released any totals yet in 2013.


Scoring Update

Teams are averaging 4.26 Runs Per Game this year which is the lowest since the 4.12 scored in 1992. In totals wagering however, the Over has a commanding 283-249 lead (253-228 in Non Extra Inning Games). This 53+% Overs percentage won't be sustained, so look for the Under to catch up over the next few weeks.

Have a great week!
