    Interesting. I figured they'd be +110 minimum given Hellickson's struggles. I know it's been bumped up to that now, but I'm not sure I'd declare the Rays dead just yet.

    +113 sounds like the place to be today.

      I heard Wil Myers may not play.

      Hey Coin is this play made based on the line or
      do you actually think Hellickson is capable?

        It's rediculous how these lines have been so close every game. Vegas espn and the world has no respect for the Red Sox.

        Red Sox should be a -155 favorite tonight

          Red Sox were the favorite to win the World Series to begin the playoffs.

          Sox are the best team in baseball .. aint no doubt about that

          but its usually not the best team who ends up winning

                You're kidding, right? ESPN slurps Boston/NY c*ck every chance they get. The lines are where they are because Vegas knows even though Boston won the season series 12-7, most of those wins were first half of the season. The last 11 games (including playoffs) are 6-5 in favor of the Rays, hence the "close" lines. Instead of whining you should be happy for the "disrespectful" line and hammer away.

                  It was at +100 prob cause peavy has been equally atrocious in the post season.

                      And if you think my comments are whining, educate yourself.

                        I'm plenty educated, thank you. You post "Vegas espn and the world has no respect for the Red Sox." Sounds like whining to me. And ridiculous isn't spelled with an "e".

                              Peavy hasn't pitched any better for the last month either. Hellickson actually has better numbers for September. Peavy has been giving up walks at alarming rate. I like Rays at home +108.
