the closest thing to a lock today

cant believe the dbacks are a dog in this one, take the plus money




D-backs +122

to the bank!

 

[MrCleo]

if you cant believe they are a dog, you must not be watching bases lately

 

[BuffaloSabre]

Dude still thinks its 2001

 

[KidKash]

we'll see but the line is skewed for a couple reasons

a-its the cubs and everyone has jumped on there bandwagon, only to see it end once again early in the post season this year

b-haren goes for them tonight and the public sees him as an ace pitcher which is another urban legend.

im well aware of the dbacks sub .500 record, i just really like this spot for them tonight.

 

[MrCleo]

i think you mean Harden. and he hasn't done anything on the mound this year to suggest he's NOT an ace pitcher.

 

[krk1030]

Look at his numbers, when healthy he is as good as anyone.

Big Unit.......

12-0 LIFETIME vs. Cubs.

12-0 LIFETIME vs. Cubs.

Jeeeezzzzus !:nono5:

He hasn't pitched against the Cubs since 2004. Only Ramirez and Lee are still on the Cubs now. Johnson has pitched well lately, but I like the Cubs tonight. Harden is an ace when healthy and the Diamondbacks can't hit for shit. They have had bullpen problems the last couple of games too.

You think it's an urban legend that Harden is an ace, huh? When healthy the guy has won over 67% of his starts. I guess that sub 3 ERA is a myth. No doubt he's been injury prone but there is absolutely no doubt how good he is when healthy. You don't put up numbers like his by accident.

 

[LittleBuddha]

Harden being an ace an urban legend... have you ever seen him pitch?

Wait, I know the answer is no. hno:

 

[seriousaddiction]

Harden is an ACE...to say anything less than that is ignorant...When healthy he's an ACE on ANY team in the majors...

and as for Randy being 12-0 vs the Cubs...those were all wins when A) The Cubs were terrible
and
B) When Randy wasnt 65 yrs old and below 500.
