Meh, don't really care about that. There is no valid reason for it so just an anomaly over a small sampling.

SORRY !!!!

[RollinDo]

SORRY !!!!

I'll join you in this laughing fest Mag.
Hilarious!

[LT Profits]

SORRY !!!!

Not that I'd mind seeing that pattern continue tonight. It is just meaningless from a handicapping standpoint.

How can this be meaningless?
Sorry to be blunt, but what the crock exactly are you looking at when you're handicapping this game? 10-2 on the road and a decent track - record at Camden? Meaningless?

yes it is meaningless. you cant be serious with this?? cause he happened to be better on the road this season it some great reason to bet him every time he on the road the rest of his career?

Who said to bet on him on the road the rest of his career???? And how is it an anomaly that this year he is better away from home???. Maybe he just doesn't do well in KC's park. There are a lot of pitchers like that. Take Delarosa for Colorado for example, excellent @ home and can't win on the road. Bumgarner ring a bell. WTF are you talking about. Some guys don't do well in certain parks, simple as that. So I guess the question is , what is meaningful to you??? In LT's case, he writes a column here, so of course he is going to be biased, what's your excuse ????

It also could be why you are almost 60 games under .500??? Look, I was just trying to add something to the conversation that "I" thought was pertinent to the KC wager. I took them myself, and based SOME of my opinion on that. I certainly wouldn't base it on the SBR experts. LOL. Well fella's best of luck tonight and in the future, hope all is well.

all the gms between these 2 were pretty early i believe. tillman pitched a 5 hit shutout in his only start vs kc this season.. shields has had good success in camden yards throughout his career.. balty better get him early cause after that 1st inning he been shutting teams down..

Did you write this today??????????

Wow...a little contradiction it appears.
We may as well throw that 10-2 road record out the window cause it means jack diddly squat this time of year. I mean, guy could have gone 2-10 on the road and still means absolutely nothing from a handi-crapping standpoint.

[RollinDo]

Thanks for at least putting that info out there Mag.
A couple people are appreciative...The majority shove it aside and it's O's or bust, cause KC just doesn't belong here and Shields 10-2 road record should not be factored in at all.
After all, none of those wins came in October. LOL.
I should be focusing my handicapping energy on factors such as...the shade of blue that KC will wear tonight.
I really want to find info on how those Orange guys respond to powder blue vs royal blue...could be the deciding factor!
And what is the W-L record in post-season of road teams who ate BBQ pork vs Rack of Lamb for pregame din-din.

[RollinDo]

Probably should be a tight game since both starters last names both contain 7 letters.
And there you have how tonight's total was determined.

That clown wrote that this morning @ 6:22 AM. Now he goes the other way??? Probably goes the other way in life as well. LOL.

Yes, I think you've got it!!!!! That's how they determine the game total.

Home/Away splits only matter if a pitcher's home games are either a pronounced hitter's park or a pronounced pitcher's park. KC is pretty neutral so there is no reason to break it down to that detail, the overall numbers will suffice. And ballparks are caught in the wash in xFIP anyway.

Forget the record, only the -4.79 matters. Of course winning percentage will be low when over 90% of the sides are underdogs.

[44 Mag]

Well if betting "huge" dogs everyday is your idea of gambling, then BOL. Besides, we both have the same team tonight.

And I must be doing a pretty good job if I am 60 games under and -4.

But + is better, there is still time.

[44 Mag]

As I say , BOL LT. We will need it according to all the "experts" on here. Not directed at you.
