Why are the Pirates +185 on Monday?

[No coincidences]

Logged in expecting +150 at the most. What gives? I'm confused.

Didn't Verlander, almost, throw a no hitter against them last year?
Verlander is a public pitcher, public pitchers always get heavily favored unless if they are pitching against other public pitchers.

Also, doesn't Detroit have a strong history of making Francisco Liriano their bitch?

i dunno im a sucker tho cause i grabbed me some pit, too steep for me to pass up...liriano been really good thus far, big step up from pitching against scrubbies, muts, and stros tho..on same note while verlander hasnt been his normal dominating self he has been facing tough lineups and in tough conditions (like wind tunnel in arlington) so who knows but seemed pretty damn high to me as well so i played it..

I love JV. He's my favorite pitcher by far. Huge Tiger fan. This line is absurd.
