    I was thinking of the same thing. Maybe it is because CIN now couldn't score away from home and CUBS just don't know how to score. The last three starts for Leake against the CUBS were all under. Then, Volstad gave up only 2 runs in 7 innings last out makes it more confusing. Of the six games played this season, only one has gone over 7 runs. The fact that the line came out -118 on the under makes it even more intriguing. So maybe it will be an under or no play for me. Then again, I can easily see Volstad gaving up 10runs by himself. LOL. GL on whatever you decide.

    Volstad looked good in his last outing in LA, he did however benefit from a ridiculously wide strike zone. Weather is rainy on the north side. Tough to bet this one either way.

    If it doesn't get rained out, why not just play the Reds? Fairly cheap price compared to the limited board tonight.

    That line is suspicious as hell, you are right. I am leaning under because of it. As we all damn well know, the lines are there for a reason and often to make us all look like idiots ... broke ones at that.
