Record 10-17 Bank Account -1205 Reds at Yankees - No way my boys lose to Bronson Arroyo. Bet Yankees $320 to win $200. Bombs away for the Yanks tonight! A's at Giants - Love J.Parker for Oakland. Take the A's $100 to win $100. Cards at Dodgers - Love Lilly this year, but I expect Lynn to rebound. Bet the Cards $125 to win $100. Mets at Blue Jays - Niese has been solid, but look for Romero to bounce back from a poor effort against the Twins. Bet the Blue Jays $148 to win $100. Rangers at Astros - Wow, this is a nice value pick and I am going to unload. Bet the Rangers -1.5 $200 to win $220. I didn't look at any trend numbers as these are my first impressions. Lets see if this makes a difference. I will add all solid gamblers shake it up when things are not going well. My odds are still 50/50 regardless if I look at trends or not. Keep that in mind.

Reds' Chapman to stay in bullpen...for now

Via Fox Sports Ohio  |  May 17, 2012
NEW YORK - One day, the Reds promise, left-hander Aroldis Chapman will be a starting pitcher. But it cant happen yet, not when two of the teams top setup men remain on the disabled list.

Latos throwing good pitches, but too many

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  May 17, 2012
Right-hander Mat Latos of the Cincinnati Reds has pitched pretty well in the his last three outings. He's given up a total of four runs, in fact. But he's gone six, five and five innings.
