Josh Johnson shouldn't be -230 vs. a high school team

[No coincidences]

What a line.

[forthewin]

These are definitely trap lines we are seeing today. A big dog is going to hit today and it may very well be the Astros. Of course the BJs want to beat up on the lesser team for a possible sweep, after their own recent spankings; however the Astros have proven to be upset artist and seem to take at least one big dog game in a series. This may be it. These recent lines have been completely outrageous and inflated. Look at what happened to the Nats yesterday at -240? (First off even at home, regardless of who is pitching, the Nats have no business anywhere near -200ish against anyone right now and I don't care who is pitching.)They got destroyed 11-0 and came back as a dog and beat the Mets with Matt Harvey on the dirt against them. Or the Mariners -240 with King Felix. We all know how that ended. Both huge favorites lost yesterday and there is three today. Josh Johnson is terrible so that is worth more than a look and please someone tell me how in the world the Giants are -240 against the Cubs? Bumgarner or not, Soriano gone or not. The Giants are playing somewhere in the realm of the Nats right now. And Rusin isn't gonna be a walk in the park by any means for the Giants anemic offense. Some huge dogs today. They are all worth a look. I am not gonna lay a dime on the Phillies against Scherzer though. Cubs and Astros parlay would win huge lol. Its very possible.

I think they are setting line so high to get everyone on Houst. Toro wins this 6-1

[martino maserati]

josh johnson is terrible this year but a guy with his talent is in a good spot for a strong start against such a horrible team...not even messing wit the ml just take run line toronto will sweep today

[Bostongambler]

Houst might even get a few runs, but I see Toro ( much like last night) hammering them with their bats.

there is no way in hell that Johnson gives up only 1 run...the blue jays might win, but it will be high scoring

[Solid]

I wouldn't bet here at all, but Josh should be well rested after only pitching 2 innings his last outing. He really should get it done, but these odds are garbage.

[JMon]

...going nowhere near this game

[blackeyeshamus]

Dis-Astros+1.5@+105
Fool rushin in where angels fear to tread. BOL.

[t-bone]

nice thread buddy.........astros or nothing in this game!

[Jeff Grant]

Blue Jays have won just three times with Johnson on the hill - covering the run line each time at the Rogers Centre

Only way to play the game in my opinion

[LT Profits]

Astros +206 here, it is unfortunate that Johnson just hasn't been the same since coming back from shoulder surgery last year.

[JMon]

agree with LT..would play Hou here, if playing

[ethandavis2]

wow, he really sucks

[BigDofBA]

Josh Johnson was a high school teammate of mine.

I hate seeing him struggle like this....

[TheFlash]

Lol this JJ guy is GARBAGE. I'm not even on this game

[secueritae]

I bet Ricky Romero could have pitch better than JJ's last couple games

[JMon]

yikes...lol

there is no way in hell that Johnson gives up only 1 run...the blue jays might win, but it will be high scoring

[rainman416]

Jumped all over HOU today, +200 classic let down spot for jays coming off a big win... Keuchel pitching... HOU was winning last night as well and jays had that 1 big inning... Hope houston holds their lead

[BrianKay]

Houston may find a way to give the +200 ml back to the bookies...penetrate me, Astros can suck with the best of them at times. Please hold on!

[rainman416]

Whap!! Hou + tb = $$$$

[Big Bear]

good call Coiner.

I was take the Astros but i got busy and didnt get the bet in.

shocking that a 1-6 pitcher was a -230 favorite

[forthewin]

And what do you know 2 out of three huge favorites lost, as both Jays and Giants got bit by the dogs. I hope someone parlayed the Cubs and Astros.
