Why is Bucholz only -200 at home against an 0-4 pitcher?

[OhMyEli]

Why is this not juiced up around -275 or so?

I don't see anything out of the ordinary considering the books know they will make tons on the Sox no matter what. Explanation?

They will make sure his hair is dry.

They will make sure his hair is dry.

Exactly 30+ pitches and down 2 runs, which could have easily been 5 in the first inning.

And what did Morneau and Mauer do in the first?
I got .5* Minny at +180

I didn't know baseball games concluded @ Top 1.

[stevenash]

thanks Boston

Did you lay -200?

[stevenash]

I didn't know baseball games concluded @ Top 1.

Yesterday's Tiger game did.

[forthewin]

I didn't know baseball games concluded @ Top 1.

I never implied who was going to win the game. The point is under such inexplicably heavily juiced odds against a dangerous hitting Twins team, Buchholz is getting worked more than he has in any of his other starts this season. He could also very well have been affected by Jack Morris "spitball" remarks. He is starting to settle down but he definitely was getting hit hard and early and there is no reason to not see value in the Twins @ +180.

[forthewin]

Yesterday's Tiger game did.

Right. Along with the Marlins @+170 and The Rays @+104

Regardless of the outcome Twins @+180 is good value pick.

I saw the line go from +174 to +180 five minutes before first pitch, threw a small 1/2 unit on them because of the way the meat of the order hits Clay.

Luckily did not play this, knew something was up at that price. I wouldn't have been surprised to see -300.

[forthewin]

Also, the Tigers were -220 vs the Twins less than a week ago... The final score? Tigers 2 - Twins 6.

I believe the biggest price ever at Fenway was Pedro at -270

[tbird509]

i seen pedro -400 before,highest juice i ever seen,im pretty sure it was vs det around 2000-2001....alot of big spreads back then

[stevenash]

Sox have a golden chance right here, down 4-2 first and second, no outs.

[forthewin]

That was a good game. Stephen Drew played his best game this season.
