    Why is the Texas line dropping?

    Anyone? I took em at -130 cause the Astros is just horrible. Now it's at -115..Thoughts?

    I grabbed Houston at +112 now they are +105.

    I like Wandy tonight. I see it as a good value betting on the home team with their ace on the mound in a Rivalry type game.

    GL.

    Rangers going for the sweep. May be hard to get.

    I liked Houston before the line movement and before I knew Lang was on them. Now I really like them.

    Houston has the worst record in baseball yet the line started low and is now moving In their favor against the defending AL champs......that should tell you something.

    I'll make a normal bet on Houston in what I consider a coinflip. In getting plus money in a game I feel I win 50% of the time.

    Books love games like this.

    Wandy Rod is an above average pitcher.

    Smart money moving in on Houston. Maybe last minute injury to other team or someone knows something.

    Be careful.

    I took a small bet on Texas at -110 but wow did that line move from what it opened at for a team in favor of the team that is crushing. I'll probably lose but whatever I got suckered in after the line dropped that much and have no problem going small on it.

    Haha. I'm rarely right on these though so I have to live it up.
