Red Sox -150 Large
Ricky Romero has been living on the danger side for a quite time, getting into deep counts, walking hitters, but really hasn't blown up yet. This is a fundamental bad match-up for him. Last two starts against the Red Sox he got rocked and couldn't go the distance in either one. This bode terrible for him and that Blue Jays bullpen.

For some reason the way Josh Beckett has been throwing he isn't getting priced as the superior pitcher, as well of Red Sox's sticks and bullpen.

 

[TheHungerForMore]

I was surprised to see that line wasn't opened at -170.

 

[TheHungerForMore]

I see a great amount of totals i like at plus money if anyone wants to talk about those.

 

[TheHungerForMore]

Interested to see what the market does with Fla/Hou, Sea/Det and Kc/Cws games.

If Astros get boost up to +110 i may be on them. We may of seen the best of Nolasco this season. Getting rocked last start and facing the same team once again is concern for a young pitcher. Bullpen advantage to Houston.

 

[BluBirdz$$]

Hey Hunger....the totals have not come up on bodog, but I cant tell I will like the TX over at around 9/9.5 and it looks like its + money from what you have

Who ya got?

 

[BluBirdz$$]

Also looking at Marlins Over, LAD under, and Philly Over all at +money

 

[EzMoney012]

Astros -Vs- Marlins Over 9 runs

Last time these two startes hooked up just a week or so back they combined for 20 runs.....

The first four games between these teams all went over

Nyy/Oak o9 +120 Fla/Hou o9 +111

I have placed wagers on those. Still looking at more. Maybe Kc/Cws o9.5 +115

 

[TheHungerForMore]

Det +117 - I am agreeing with the market here.

 

[TheHungerForMore]

Seems like the market is buying into Royals offense and thinking Freddy is going to be rusty. I disagree Meche has been struggling and getting hammered by the long ball. He'll be going against a lineup with a lot of pop. So Freddy doesn't need to be sharp as possible. Bullpens will come to play no doubt. Royals have one of the worst bullpens giving White Sox the clear huge advantage.

"Garcia made 4 minor-league rehab starts for the White Sox before getting the call and was 0-1 with a 1.80 ERA. The right-hander also had 19 strikeouts in 20 innings."

Good points made on Romero and good read on this game.

Not the most appealing card today.

Upper medium plays:
White Sox
Marlins
Red Sox

I agree i may of went over boarded with Nolasco. Last start he wasn't getting some of the border line calls from the ump and didn't have most of his stuff. While Marlins having a nice match-up vs Bud Norris, hard hitting line up vs a pitcher who throws mainly hard stuff across the plate, a slider that average. They did hit him hard as well, was lucky to escape some dangerous jams. I will have to see the line up card first unless Marlins get to even money. My line is -115 with no Nick Johnson.

Interesting picks. Have not been posting at this site but that may change later today.

Beckett is 3-5 with a 5.95 ERA in 10 career starts versus the Blue Jays

This maybe why Beckett isn't --165, -170.....still agree with the pick

 

[TheHungerForMore]

I'm playing Atl/Nym under 8.5 +111

 

[TheHungerForMore]

Hey, BG do you still like Brewers as a play? If you have time can you break down why you like them.

 

[TheHungerForMore]

Red Sox -150 large
Det +117 med/large
Cws -120 med/large
Brewers -109 (waiting for feedback) med
