2014 MLB thread with friends

Really don't see much other than this. I pretty much lean all favorites tonight, but the numbers aren't worth the risk.

parlay a couple of em then

i like the rays tonight.

Inferior record, inferior pitching record, yet a pretty big favorite. Yeah, makes sense to me, too.

[EXhoosier10]

Love this one, got it at 8!

Damn, 4U? Good luck!

Thanks guys. Bullpens fresh (and relatively good), offenses are below average, Kulpa is a top 4 under ump by my metrics. Hopefully it pans out

TB -136 (1.36U to win 1)

[EXhoosier10]

over 7.5 in cincy @ +122 ~ 1u (pinny lean)

[No coincidences]

im not a big totals guy but how is the cubs total at 7.5? i expected 9.5 at least.

Yeah, that's a weird number indeed. Never know, though -- might be strictly a Wrigley/wind blowing in thing.

[No coincidences]

LOL -- how bad is Buchholz?

[LtDarsh]

how you feel about the yankees vs rangers?

Have no idea. You'd be crazy to lay that kind of juice with Darvish given how bad TEX is right now, though.

I saw that too. Made me want to jump on the over.

That means if you play the under you will probably cash.

[No coincidences]

really tempted to, but i honestly wouldn't be surprised at all if it went over by the 3rd inning

Basically, two minor league teams/pitchers going against each other.

Unbettable.

Burnett.

Coin, check out Cubs TT over 4 +115, pal. In 18 games vs lefty starters, Cubs have scored 5+ runs 12 times, 4 runs zero times, and 3 or less runs 6 times. At home, it's 5+ runs 7 times, 4 runs zero times, 3 or less 3 times. Two of the six games with 3 runs or less were when Gio Gonzalez shut them out twice (once at home, once on road). Rockies have allowed 7, 8, 7 and 9 runs in Flande's four starts.

Interesting.

Can you figure out why this game total is set so low, though?

No, i cannot. 10 mph wind in, night game, under ump, Rocks really struggle vs LHP (esp on road)? i have this one at around 8.3-8.4

I know next to nothing about these two pitchers. I figured the total would be in the 8.5 to 9 range.

Flande is awful, puts a lot of guys on base, can't miss bats, and Rockies pen is very taxed. think i'm playing Cubs TT over based upon their killing lefties. was also eying Cubs -1 RL, but in those same 18 games vs LHP, Cubs are just 10-8 (5-5 at home) despite their sick totals.

HOU TT over 3 (2.5U to win 2)

It's hard enough to back the Cubs as a dog, let alone a favorite like this.

The Rockies are just plain awful, though. Like I said, this would be akin to attending a PCL game.

hopefully, this is a lot more high-scoring.

kulpa is tomorrow...

[No coincidences]

HOU FF +0.5 +110 (2U to win 2.2)

[EXhoosier10]

kulpa is tomorrow...

well go f\*\*k this bet. Lance barrett would make this a 2.5u play. He's historically been an under ump, but has been pretty even/slight over lean this year. Looks like another monday ump day of mixups

[mikmik]

Coin why do you even let these idiots get to you. Keep doing your thing.

[No coincidences]

[Dollars2Donuts]

We were finally on the same game. TB cashes for us.

Boom.

[BigDofBA]

Does this guy ever post anything useful?

I've been seeing a lot of useless posts from him.

[BigDofBA]

Brock was on the Brewers and Red Sox. I hope everyone bet accordingly.

I always want to go bigger on the fades but something keeps holding me back.

I feel like eventually he will have a good night but it never happens.

What's happened to Bumgarner?

Giants have totally fallen apart.
