In an attempt to make lemons into lemonade, I tried an experiment.  For the SD series I decided to risk $20 by betting $5 against the Giants each game.  I'm now $6 ahead but the odds are shortening drastically and for the last game I had to put up $5 to win $3.  

The odds for the Dodgers series will be even worse, so I'm going to quit this experiment while ahead.  (Even though I think the Giants will lose at least 90 games this year, at short odds the winning bets will probably be outweighed by the 65-70 games they win.)

So I'm gonna take that 6 bucks and try to get my 13-yr-old nephew onto the Stanford sailing team.  I think the odds are better.

Now if you had just bet the Giants to beat the Dodgers on Monday...  This is why they play the games, and I don't bet on them!

Giants just a game out of first place!
