Well, when you have as bad a month as we did in February, it's very easy to talk about turning the ship around; all that really counts are results.

And March was all about results: we really had a great month, going 15-5, and recovering nearly 8% of our losses from our low point on March 2nd (we actually went 15-3 from March 3 until the end of the month).

Now basketball is coming to an end (we'll probably just pick another game or two in the upcoming week), and then we'll move right into baseball. The transition from basketball to baseball is seamless, since the two seasons overlap nicely - the Major League Baseball season will have had about two weeks to gather stats before we start picking games.

For our newer clients who haven't been with us during baseball season, it's certainly a different beast: instead of picking over/unders (as we do for the NBA), PickLogic selects winners in baseball, and the "odds" aren't always at -110 - in fact, they rarely are. We'll usually take games anywhere from -150 all the way to +120, but the method remains the same: PickLogic will tell you what to RISK (not what to win), and the odds will only have an effect on the net profits.

Once the season starts, we'll make another blog post that outlines some of methods that PickLogic uses to generate baseball selections.

Thanks, as usual, for your support - we look forward to a profitable baseball season!

After a record August, we've had a nice start to September, already up .75% after nice win Thursday night. That puts our total since November 2008 at just a shade under +30%, with a 22.2% gain for the 2009 calendar year.

But we thought we'd post a quick note regarding Friday's selection, as there were actually three excellent picks that made the grade. Of course, we only take one (at the most) on any given day, but here were the three that qualified:

- San Francisco (-110) at Milwaukee
- Minnesota (-110) at Cleveland
- Seattle (-110) at Oakland

All top-quality games...but only one qualifies as the PickLogic selection for Friday: San Francisco is the pick!

As usual, don't hesitate to contact support@picklogic.com with comments or questions.

Well, we're two weeks into the season, and PickLogic selections are 4-5 so far, for a meager positive return of just under .7% - which actually isn't that bad, considering that 3 of those losses came in a 3-game losing streak (which always temporarily slows the rate at which PickLogic accounts move forward).

Remember that we don't necessarily expect to make selections at a rate too much above 50% for the season (it should settle in the 53-58% range when all is said and done), but we DO expect to generally avoid losing streaks...and when we do, we expect to gain anywhere from 2-6% each month.

If you're new to PickLogic, we'd love to hear what you think about the way baseball picks are made, and if you have any questions.

For Friday's selection, there were actually four games that were nearly even in our selection process; we had to dig deep into the stats to come up with the eventual pick...and we figured we'd pass them all on to you, as we do occasionally:

• Philadelphia vs. New York Mets, -118 (this is the pick)
  
• San Francisco vs. Colorado, -115
  
• Boston at Tampa Bay, -127
  
• Seattle vs. Oakland, -112
  

We'll have a follow-up post after the games to see how the selections did (we predict: 3-1).

Just figured we'd make a quick post...see if we can't jinx ourselves. The PickLogic selections are certainly doing quite well lately, having won 4 in a row, 7 of 8, and 13 of 17.

As a direct result, our clients are already up 10.6% in 2009 so far - quite possibly the best investment return you can find anywhere these days. Our 18.3% mark for the NBA season is also very solid.

At any rate, after just two picks through the first week of March (both winners), there are a number of games that qualify for Sunday, March 8. With the vast majority of all selections coming out accurately lately, we decided to "spread the wealth" just a bit (and let's see if that completely invalidates our recent run of success!).

With that said...here are the games that qualified for Sunday:

-- Utah at Toronto, UNDER 208.5 (this is the actual pick)
-- Phoenix at San Antonio, OVER 219.5
-- New York at New Jersey, UNDER 220
-- Denver at Sacramento, UNDER 212

We'll check back Sunday evening to see how we did (but as long as we win the first one, we'll be happy).
