Wednesday's MLB Best Bets: Luis Castillo, David Peterson, and the Strikeout Watch List
Do you know what's crazy about this list? Everyone on it covered yesterday. All three guys. All three were plus money (nbd) and all three covered. That's just how the strikeout watch list works. It's truly a special gift to us sports bettors. And it saves time too. By the time lineups come out everyday, I've already forgotten everything I read earlier in the morning. So the obvious thing I do is check out the watch list. If you see enough strikeout artists in the lineup, you know you can move on a play. An idiot can make this thing work. I'm serious, idiots love this thing. The beauty of today's list is we have a day game to start us off so if we get what we want, we'll be gambling all day long. There's no better life than that. Everyone knows that.
Remember, we need to see AT LEAST five of these batters in these lineups when they are released. If that happens, get ready to fire away. Be somebody today.
