I usually wait to use those trends after 3-4 weeks so that each team has at least different levels of competition.
A team could have started the season with a series vs CHW, COL, and MIA and looked like world beaters when they actually only had a very favorable schedule.
I get bombarded and hammered daily by him telling me to bet against the white sox, a couple times i told him I am not betting against them and he goes off on me and hurts my feelings.
