They are only dogs b/c the lines say they are. That doesn't mean anything really. We look at momentum, pitching matchups, lineup capability against pitching matchups, and instinct. If we were not sure on these dogs, trust us we wouldnt have wagered what we did. And taking risks will make you profit not taking the favs on payouts of (-175, -200, -220, etc....) And we all know those are not always guaranteed. Like the Dpdgers or example: They are favs b/c have won nine in a row. Penny is a phenomenal pitcher, but the tank has to be low on the everyday players. They are due for a flat game anytime now, that is why we wagered what we did
