    It's a trap. Don't do it. The Red Sox have the better offense, defense, and bullpen. Lannan can't pitch 8 innings every start.

            NO value on NATS unless you can get them at +160 or more. Period

              I love taking them as huge dogs. Not big enough of a dog to warrant a play for me.

              By gametime, the line should go up. Maybe if you wait it out, it'll be around +140 or so.

                You're posts always make me go

                How is betting the team getting only 8% of the bets a trap?

                  Betting the team getting 92% of bets and only being a slight favorite is the obvious trap

                      I don't even know if that's enough. Nats winning % is below .300 I just can't back a team like that against the best AL team. Good luck though.

                        Only way Nats have a chance, is if the game is extremely low scoring. Don't see it happening.

                        Besides why not wait until Game 3 of this series when you get Smoltz in his first game back. I'm all most sure he will not finish that game and the bullpen will be used extensively. Thats when the NATS will have value. But I still wouldnt lay money on them, when their is at least 13 other games everyday.

                          I believe the definition of a trap is a game that looks good on the surface but in reality is bad. IN this case, the Nats look good because Lannan has been good and they are underdogs at home. The Nats are the worst team in baseball for a reason. I wouldn't bet the Nats at +120.

                            Understood fifawcs, but my point is the Nats don't look good on the surface (hence only getting 8% of the bets)

                              Home underdogs always look good. They are the secret to making profit in MLB.

                                  Home underdogs look good if they are a decent team...and they are playing a team thats as good or maybe just slightly better.

                                  However this is the worst team in the league at home against one of the best.

                                  So the Red Sox are the sucker (square) play, not the Nats. I'm not saying the Nats are gonna win but they are deffinately not the sucker play like you said before. I'm not sure how you dont see that

                                    The nats are a possibility....+120 or 170..doesnt matter to me...value is value..i would rather win a +120 then lose a +170...capping the game they are a possibility

                                            Nats have all the numbers in their favour tonight (slugging, whip, in their last 3 games etc.) ... And, while I hate going against CK, the Nats have only won 4 game-1's of a home series, against the Braves, Astros, Giants and Jays. None of those teams are even close to Boston caliber. Their overall game-1 home record is 4-8 which parallels their 12-23 record at home so they aren't losing more game 1's then they are losing overall at home, but still.

                                            And they have yet to win a game 1 on the road.

                                            My money's on the BoSox but heavy consensus tends to go to the books ...

                                                  Based on the line, the Nats are definately the play......Best of luck

                                                    22 teams have home records of .500 or better this year in MLB. Last licks is a huge advantage over the opposition. Nats were in this game until the bullpen came in. This team is terrible. Their bullpen blows almost every lead they get. They are the sucker play. +200are usually nice odds, but it isn't if you are betting on the nationals. Trust me on this one.

                                                      I think the line failed to take into account the Nats bullpen. Should have been (-160) + Boston.

                                                          good call fifa.....the Nats do offer good value once in a while. Today I probably should have stayed away even though I thought theyd win since they werent getting enough juice.

                                                          In the future even if I do think they are the pick with sufficient value I've gotta take em 1st 5 innings because their bullpen is absolutely atrocious

                                                            Nothing worse than someone that gloats after the fact about a stupid play and how "they were on the other side" grow up you ****....have you ever been on the wrong side in a game? I was on the Nats and I'm not ashamed of the pick. I still went 4-2 on the day
