    Toronto -147 vs Pittsburgh Tonight?

    Toronto is starting Cecil (1-2 6.86) vs Pitt's ace Karstens (5-4 2.66). Public isn't really skewed in either direction (which I find a bit surprising). Thoughts on the matchup/odds?

    Toronto's offense is kicking a little bit more lately and they are at home, where traditionally pitt has not been a good road team. I honestly think neither team is really a powerhouse... I am going to take a shot with the Toronto RL just for action. I just can't bring myself to bet on the pirates... every time I bet them they find a way to lose. If anything I would say this is a good game to stay away from.

    Play the UNDER 8.5 ($even)
    pitt's 27th batting avg. against lefties (2.39), poo jays 22nd batting avg. against righties (2.45)...Karstens has been a rock, icey cool jays bats..1st start for cecil against the bucs
    karsten's gone under 5 of his last 6 starts
    if i had to pick a side i'd go PITT, wonder when they're gonna start getting some respect on the road

    U really think Karstens is Pirates ACE?

    He is not! He is ok, Cecil is not the same. Toronto didn't score much yesterday but this game is based upon if cecil. OLD or the one with a dead arm.\\

    Maybe not, but he's done pretty well so far thus season. I don't have time to cap the game...probably going to lay off it, just wanted to see some different angles on why the line is so high.

    I took the pirates, Cecil is a liability.
