Makinen: Better MLB bullpens on three-game losing streaks remain gems
 

In what was an uneventful week using my systems, the better bullpen on a three-game losing skid angle continues to thrive. More on that below as well as updates on the overall record, the drill-down systems, and my updated bullpen stats and rankings.

As a reminder of the methodology behind my bullpen systems, over the course of the last 5+ years while with VSiN, I’ve employed a generic system of tracking the results of teams that have a bullpen rating edge on my scale. I offer updated team bullpen ranking on the daily matchups page on VSiN.com, and I track the results. It has done consistently well long term, producing profits each season in that span. However, I’ve always felt it was something I could improve on by narrowing the scope of what should actually be wagered. I’ve done that by breaking down the bullpen edges by line ranges and other various game situations. I will detail those shortly.

For now, the general bullpen system was slightly negative last week, going 45-45 for -4.48 units. These were the results by day:

Monday 5/15: 8-4, +3.66 units
