Friday's Baseball Best Bets!

As most of you know, I don’t do handicapping for baseball because I like to take a break from my time preparing to handicap football, but I have discovered a great baseball handicapper that I respect that uses methods that are in line with my theories on finding value in other sports.

Gill Alexander
Gill Alexander's sports betting advice uses advanced sabermetrics. He is known for his informative “Betting Dork” podcasts. I’ve had discussions with Gill on his methods and have been impressed with his approach to finding hidden value in baseball. I’ve never had another handicapper on my site, but I believe in Gill’s handicapping enough to start posting his baseball plays on my site (with his consent, of course).

Performance
Previous 4 Seasons TOTAL: 761-654 (54%) for +61.60 Units
2012 Through All-Star Break: 143- 122 (54%) for +33.60 Units
Total MLB Record: 904-776 (54%) for +95.20 Units

Gill is hitting the same percentage in his sports investments as in previous seasons but is winning with more underdogs this season and enters the 2nd half of the season on a 23-12 run. Most of Gill’s plays are 1-Star or 2-Star but he has an occasional 3-Star play.

Gill was 1-1 on Thursday for +1.10 Stars and is now -6.32 Stars since the All- Star Break and +27.28 Stars for the season. Gill was winning big before the All-Star break but dropped over 20 stars the first week posting on my site, but he’s now won 6 straight days.
