    I might lay 2-3 k on the astros on Wed afternoon.

    This could be a huge play for me. Norris laying only -120 versus Coleman. Man i am so tempted.

    Why not put it on a stronger team, Houston always seems to lose no matter what. Even though tonight they finally pulled a miracle.

    This is a once in a lifetime chance at such a good line on the better pitcher. Stros will rock coleman.

    Houston is the worst team in the game, you'd wager that large on them?

    LB, you do realize Astros play VERY well against the Cubs, recently it has not shown (last couple games and wrigley series) but it stuck out to me too. Watch line moves before game tomorrow just to be on the safe side before placing that huge wager.

    I would rather lay -240 on the yankees or phillies than the ******* astros at -120.

    Meh -- Stros *should* win (especially after what happened tonight), but this is still the worst team in baseball. Not saying I wouldn't play it, but $2-3 grand?

    I like the Rays and Twinks tomorrow LB.

    The Astros and Cubs can both goto hell. I'd rather bet on a little league game.

    not touching this series because one pitch is likely to decide the outcome like tonight.

    like seattle under since they scored 20 runs tonight

    Well good luck if you take it. I would never do a big bet on the Astros no matter what the match up. But at least you have some kind of fall back in that the Cubs are also relatively shit.

    Astros have a decent bullpen especially their middle relievers and setup guys, so if Norris can give them 6 or 7 of 2-3 run ball they have a great chance. I'm not sold on Melancon as a closer but there are certainly worse out there. The young kids can hit and seem comfortable so far at the Juicebox.
