    How much is bet on Sabathia every time he pitches?

    I noticed last time Sabathia pitched the Yankees were the #1 baseball play at BetCris and it's the same thing for tonight's game. I'm thinking the Yankees are probably the #1 play practically everywhere every time Sabathia pitches so...

    How much is bet on Sabathia every time he pitches?

    I'm thinking between offshore books, Vegas, and bookies it's got to be an average of millions of dollars.

    betting on aces for the entire season is a losing proposition.

    Betting on aces when they are expensive -220+ is a losing prop. Betting on aces at cheap prices -140 to like -170 is very profitable... The books let you win on the cheap lines to crush you on the -200 and up.

    when the price is nice i go with yanks w CC but every gm i bet nyy tt ov when fat boy on the mound, usually a lot less juice and cashes just as often i believe. is the downside of a push while yanks win but certainly cheaper.

    CC has struggled in the past on his birthday. Just a food for thought.

    lol wat.

    betting against aces, especially when they're on the road, is profitable on its own. people like to bet on name pitchers on name teams. home dogs are awesome.

    DUCY.

    This may be the most original idea I've ever read on this board. The books get you hooked then...WHAM!

    Some pitchers are also very streaky in piling up wins and losses so just because he rolled with a sweet game previous does not mean he'll do the same next time out. Just remember it's a long season and even the best of the best have their losses too.

    I think we all know that but the market as a whole doesn't seem that conscientious.
