March Madness
01/04/2015

Although the month ended with some March Madness, it was still a very good one with a ROI of 107.0 % and + 13.5 units from 130 bets. With equal bet size the month would have yielded 106.3 %. There were quite a few days with significant profits or losses and if I were able to choose, I would choose a return pattern with less variance.

I feel pretty comfortable going forward handicapping MLB regular season games with The Handicapper. The simulation results for Spring Training games have been pretty solid overall, even though I have had to make some changes to the simulation algorithm.

ABOUT

The Spring Training selections (picks) are different from the selections during the regular season. Teams are making a lot of substitutions in Spring Training games, which make the handicapping difficult. The analysis and measurement of teams can not be expected to be very accurate during Spring Training and therefore it's highly recommended, that wagering for Spring Training games should be done with caution.
