MLB POST #7

March 23, 2012

Just wanted to list the 4 important emails for members that should have been received and saved:

#1The 49 Page Baseball Guide

#2March Newsletter

#3Important Dates

#4Win/Loss Expectancy

If you are a member and do not have these 4 items saved please contact me.  Or if you received and could not open let me know.  This will also be sent in email form today, I need to make sure everyone is saving these as the season goes on and will continue to update.

Main email for this week

MLB POST #6

As we get closer to the season I am going to be sending out this weeks main email "Some Things Never Change" sometime later today.  It will be a break down based on expected statistics for the season and next week a little look back at last years performances. So the title will be perfect for both as I point out some numbers that will make you a little more aware of what to expect from  two groups of teams representing two thirds of all the MLB teams.

So check your emails later tonight.  Anyone else interested in joining please contact me soon the longer you wait the more you miss. 

Again this one is probably worth saving to file as a reference for later in the year.      

 

 

MLB POST #5

The early week email has been sent, if you are a member and did not receive contact me.  If you are someone interested in joining contact me, easy procedure and you will find a lot of work goes into the blog and emails. 

This week we will be discussing what I call "some things never change" see email.

Newsletter for March

MLB POST #4

I am sending out a newsletter for March to all members please read through it. The newsletter will cover estimated win/loss totals, odds, key additions and losses for 2012.  Very informative and this should help everyone gain some knowledge of basic statistics.

If you are not a member and want to receive the March newsletter you can by using the buy it now button on the right side of page.  Each month I will prepare a newsletter for members and anyone else wanting it involving helpful statistics.

If you are interested in joining please contact me.

MLB POST #3

Just sent out an e-mail to everyone and by now all current members should have the guide.  I will be adding a few more people in the next few weeks I am sure so if you hear the same information a few times be patient. 

I will start with team reviews and transactions later today.  I will post some of the information in the blog and always all of the information when needed in e-mail.

October 3, 2012

End of 2012 MLB regular season
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
October 4, 2012
Any division or wild-card tiebreaker games would take place.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
October 5, 2012
The wild-card games would be on Friday;
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
October 6, 2012
The two Division Series featuring the 2-3 seeds will start on Saturday, Oct. 6
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
October 7, 2012
The two involving the wild cards will start on Sunday, Oct. 7.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A problem could ensue if the ALDS involving the wild card goes a full five games, ending on Friday, Oct. 12. The ALCS will begin the following day, as mandated by baseball’s contract with TBS. Thus, there would be no travel day in between, and the teams would not know where the ALCS would begin until after the ALDS is over.
The problem in ’12 is that the regular season ends on Wednesday, Oct. 3 and the World Series begins on FOX on Wednesday, Oct. 24. Squeezing in additional wild-card games never was part of the plan.

So I am guessing at this point the playoff and world series schedule could possibly be changed with the new wild card format, seeing the players seem ready to start it this year. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MLB World Series begins Wednesday, October 24, 2012, and ends Thursday, November 1, 2012.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Immediately after the World Series
Eligible players become free agents
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sixth day after completion of World Series
First day that Major League and Minor League free agents may sign contracts with teams other than their former clubs
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

12th day after completion of World Series
Midnight ET, last date for a player to accept arbitration from former club 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

November 30, 2012


Midnight ET, last date to tender contracts  

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
December 3-6, 2012
Baseball Winter Meetings, Nashville, Tenn.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
December 6, 2012
Rule 5 Draft, Nashville, Tenn.  

Remember nothing is written in stone as we anticipate possible changes due to a new wild card format but at least this gives everyone a heads up of the possible changes.

3/5 Baseball thread begins!

Post #1 MLB 2012

Ok lets start the MLB thread the guide been sent to current members.  I actually needed to get some help to format it from a member so thank you for that.  The guide is very long (49 pages) so take your time and read it.  We have a few weeks before the season starts and I really hope everyone enjoys the new format.  It was a lot of work and now the hard part starts for me statistical analysis of every team in MLB. 

So lets see how this all starts out.  Just wanted to get a post out there and the e-mails for baseball will start up very soon.  Thanks again everyone and I look forward to a very interesting baseball season.  Normal posting in here will start when the season starts but I will add and reference the guide here and in e-mail as needed till then.

I will be numbering the posts also for reference purposes and easy look up as this is going to be a season loaded with action. 

2/27 Baseball guide info

Working on adding a few basic links to the guide and a few other things should be sent out by March 1st.

2/25

Ok I am editing the baseball guide now...if you are a member in good standing and receive it...  if you find minor errors just adjust...

I should have it done tonight or tomorrow...Been working on it all day.  As far as hockey goes again the thread itself is over for the year and the results down a few posts.  If during the next few weeks I find a few plays will be sent in e-mail.

So just a few posts in here a week next week with updates and now baseball news.  But the e-mail will still be the main source of communication thanks again everyone for the support...lets switch to baseball...

2/24

Seeing the system series have ended for hockey, if there are any filtered signals when I am checking just for statistical purposes I will e-mail out, if nothing is e-mailed instead of saying no plays just about everyday here I will now just be posting baseball notes within this thread. So as mentioned earlier in the week hockey is over if anything stands out I will e-mail, but leaning more toward just switching my focus to baseball and finishing the guide this weekend.

That will allow a nice long period of (Q/A)question and answer period for anyone who has any questions.  But please let me get the guide out.  Welcome new members and thank you for joining up.

Expect the guide Sunday or Monday please anyone with questions once you receive it ask, I will have a whole month to answer now that the system has ended for the hockey season.  E-mail questions and I will respond within 24 hours, if changes are needed will revise, if something small will just send add ons.

Will send out a brief e-mail.

2/23

Working on the baseball guide should be completed by Sunday or Monday,  As the system for hockey has ended for the year if I see anything positive using the filters I will still mention as we go along but nothing tonight.

The final record and breakdown for finished series is below.

The Three Cross and Sub System totals:
Hockey
A wins 41

B wins 7

C wins 3

system losses 2

Total system series record 51-2 for the year.

2/22 Notes

No plays for Wednesday.

I am going to spend the rest of the week finishing the baseball guide.  I want to get it to members in good standing by this week end.  I will drop an e-mail about the guide today.  I will continue to try to post a few plays a week but remember there is no record keeping on them and they are not series system plays.  The series systems plays for hockey are over for the year the final record was posted over the weekend (51-2) and there is a complete breakdown a few posts below of the "A", "B" and "C" finished series.

I have come up with a few add on items for baseball I think everyone will like as well as an idea for the blog.  Please see today's e-mail, any thoughts or feedback on the e-mail are appreciated.

As far as hockey goes as I said I will still try to post a few plays a week but make sure you read and understand yesterdays e-mail, no more record keeping as the positive filter plays do not fall under the system series plays and will just be plays at extreme low risk strategy wise.  They will be posted at the same time, or with a note in e-mail.

2/21

Team #14 on new code list...please see e-mail for basic directions as the system series have ended for the year...  It is time for reduction, the system final statistics are a few posts down with the A,B,C totals... (51-2).

The thread for hockey will continue with random picks till baseball starts there will be no more record keeping as the system series have ended.  But I will continue to list what the system likes for another week or two.  I advise everyone to read the e-mail first...  everyone that was part of the e-mails and blog thanks it has been a great year but system wise it is over.  All picks from this point on will be based on a positive filter reading.  I will try to get a few up a week.  Will be more in the area of the leans I listed just in the e-mails once in a while and there are no B or C, in fact no "A"'s either just basic positive filters no high lights or up dates on them as the system series was the point of this thread and they have ended.

The baseball blog will start at the beginning of the season in this thread.  I would expect 1-2 weeks max more of hockey with the random system picks, again read the e-mail first to play properly.  These are close out plays that the system players should pass on, as they are just showing a positive filter reading. 

2/21

The guide should be out for baseball this weekend.  Lets return to hockey as the system is on a nice mini run going 5-2 the last 7 after bouncing back and forth for a few weeks which is normal. 

The new code list was sent last weekend, going over tonight's games now back in half an hour with either systems plays or a note that the system passes.  There will be an e-mail sent out today also, welcome to new members joining for baseball and after the guide comes out and I post the guide is ready the last few spots fill up quickly.

So back in 30 minutes either way, up to now no clear plays coming off the weekend break lets see if anything comes up or the system passes.

2/20 No plays

2/20

Only two games scheduled today one very early afternoon and one tonight.  No system plays back tomorrow.

2/19

Busy this weekend so no time for reviewing plays back Monday.

Complete Record/New Code List

Here is the complete record and guys we have a new code list...check your e-mail....  Not sure if I will have time to to filter plays for Sunday yet...


The baseball guide is being worked on right now...  Anyone thinking of joining I would not wait to much longer...once I fill up the spots there will be a waiting list...  Guide will be done in the next few days.

Not sure of exact end date but we are getting close...everyone is aware of their status member wise and thanks for nearly 12,000 views here in a small blog in under 5 months and just about everyone is already on board for baseball...  The guide is coming along very well.

The Three Cross and Sub System totals:
Hockey

A wins 41

B wins 7

C wins 3

system losses 2

pending series 1 52B
Total system series record 51-2

Remember we have a new code list.....

2/18 No plays

Taking the day off after a nice run wanted to post early seeing I am going to be busy this weekend.  Might also take tomorrow off not sure yet need the time for other things. I will update the complete record later tonight and send out the week ending e-mail shortly.

3-1 on the week straight up as we clear 3 more series.   The "C" win covered the "A" loss and everyone should have 2 clear wins for the week.  Again there should not be a single person down following the Three Cross System and the Sub System whether you joined last year or last week it is all about system consistency.  No wild changes ever needed just long term results.

13 up weeks, 2 very small down weeks, 1 even.  Will also update exact total of "A", "B" and "C" wins.
