Thank you, bet on Kuroda huge last year also...

I hear ya on Kuroda but my concern is Jimenez at Yankee Stadium...... That being said you always seem to know your shit inside and out so I will probably tail just not for 5 units.

Actually after looking at this closer Jimenez has pretty much owned this lineup over his career only giving up 3 HR and 10 xbase hits over 140+ batters. Only Yankees with any real success against him is Beltran, McCann and Ellsbury and Ellsbury doesn't really hold much weight as he has a tiny sample size of 4 at bats.

Ubaldo's day game stats are not very good, but yankees can't do much right now anyways. I'm getting on board thanks lee.

They have scored 4 or more in 3 of their last 4 games so I wouldn't say they cant do much at the moment. They key here is that Kuroda was money at home and in day games last year so it is unlikely that he gives up the other 4 to put this game over.

**joster6** · 04-07-14, 11:51 AM

yes agreed

**twestacott** · 04-07-14, 12:44 PM

Any feelings on Houston beating LA today Lee? Cosart looked pretty good in his last start whereas CJ Wilson was good awful. Houston also looked pretty decent in Week 1.

**Simon Gruber** · 04-07-14, 02:00 PM

be a miracle if this cashes with the way this clown has pitched this afternoon. 109 pitches and 65 strikes. He's making 13 million a year.

**Simon Gruber** · 04-07-14, 02:04 PM

time to break out the hangman

**akay47** · 04-07-14, 02:31 PM

^^^ Yup, what a joke.

**Simon Gruber** · 04-07-14, 02:32 PM

Hopefully the yankees can hold on here.

**mcdonae101** · 04-07-14, 02:39 PM

Lol, first half total was 4.5 that walk was a fukin joke

**BeanTownClown88** · 04-07-14, 02:41 PM

Praying the under holds! I'm checking out some more lines, the under in Cin/STL looks good, wacha vs cingrani rematch. No one can hit Wacha, Reds's can't hit period, and STL can't hit lefties...the matchup a few days ago went 1-0 in favor of Cincy.

Also see major line movement in the KC/TB game and the Athletics/Minnesota game. I'm thinking of playing heavy on Oak -1 and KC ML

I don't know how you guys stomach totals. I really don't. Feel like chucking darts has more scientific value.

I disagree Coin, totals add a whole new realm of possibilities. Especially if you look at all the data, and then add in the wind. That can make a possible over or under a lock to me. If you pay attention to the forecast, and act when the lines first come out, you can find lots of value. Often enough to middle some games, if you're into that.

I'm really glad leet hit this bet, but after watching the game, there should've been 10 runs scored minimum.

**yoderlw** · 04-07-14, 03:33 PM

My point exactly...

**JonEJet** · 04-07-14, 05:36 PM

Would books have to take it if they make the game official after 5 innings and the rest gets rained out?

Dont think so, some books may, but most don't, has to go 9 innings on totals

oh i coulda sworn this happened to me before and it counted.. maybe not

**mcdonae101** · 04-07-14, 06:08 PM

Game counts after 5, totals need to go full length

**leetreaper** · 04-07-14, 06:15 PM

According to pinny:

When wagering on either total runs (over/under) or team totals (over/under) the game must go 9 innings (8.5 if the home team is ahead) to have action. If a game is called or suspended in extra innings, the score will be determined after the last full inning unless the home team scores to tie, or takes the lead in the bottom half of the inning, in which case the score is determined at the time the game is called.
