    Mark Buehrle is currently 10-1. Will he finish in the top 3 for Cy Young voting??

    I bet against him one time this year and have bet on him and won 5 times.
    I keep saying he will be a great fade soon but he hasn't hit the wall yet.
    Will probably continue to keep betting him until he shows signs of his old self, especially on the road.

    I'm gonna say he won't finish in the top 3 by the way.
    I'd be surprised if he kept doing this for a whole year.
    He's never possessed that kind of dominance, although has always been a good innings guy who is never on the DL.


    What do you guys think?

    I am a streak bettor in MLB.
    So I ride the hot hand or bat until they fall off.
    I have made a ton of money on Him and the Jays this past month.

    I am still waiting for that one start or 2 where he falls apart and hints at going back to normal form, which is basically a .500 pitcher who sucks on the road.

    He's just not doing it yet though.
    Gonna keep riding him and that team as long as they stay hot.
    That fkn team is on fire right now.

    Buehrle is an outstanding pitcher.

    He has always been an inning eater too and works fast and doesnt walk anyone.

    I was a little surprised when I looked up his stats and saw he's not .500 for his career.
    Basically just a solid #3 man his whole career.
    Maybe this is his year.

    haha my homework...? my opinion of Buehrle is not going to win or lose me any money.

    i honestly wish the hall of fame would burn to the ground ( with no one in it ofcourse) and i dont care about individual awards like Cy Young. I do like Buehrle but yeah he is not Kershaw.... he doesn't have ungodly stuff.

    he's just the type of pitcher who will go deep in games and give your bullpen a rest while giving his team a chance to win more times than not.

    He seems like a stand up guy so i am happy for him. I sure wouldnt mind seeing the Yankees and Red Sox both miss the playoffs.

    I haven't watched him at all this year, but i'd expect him to regress to the mean and finish with about a 3.25 ERA and 16-18 wins and no where near the top 5 in Cy Young voting

    guy has always been a smart smart pitcher that over achieved what you would expect from a guy with pure stuff like his.

    maybe he has turned a veteren corner and is in hyper Jamie Moyer mode

    the guy has pitched 2 no-hitters, and the list of guys to do that in the Major Leagues is pretty short, so I guess at times he can be dominant.

    0-5 since this thread was made.
    He may finish below .500 if he keeps it up.
