Remember these angles are never 100 percent foolproof so use this information at your own risk when handicapping tonight's game.
I live right smack in the middle between NYC and Boston here in Connecticut and we're on the back end of a pretty good Nor'easter that started 24 hours ago.
The 2" of rain we received is gone but there's still a major wind event going on.
As of now, 4pm the sustained winds are about 20 mph and gusts at times over 50 mph.
I'm sitting at my desk at home facing out the window here and I just experienced one of those gusts.
Believe me, it's windy! Logan Airport had a gust before of over 80 mph.
Right now as of 4pm the wind is blowing out to right center (closer to center) around 20 mph so you know any ball hit in the air with any force is going to carry, and carry, and carry. And if one of those balls gets caught in one of those gusts I don't see how it's going to stay in the park. Like I said this is just an angle and nothing in life is guaranteed. Here's your link.
Looks like the bookmakers are aware of this.
The total is 8.5 and the 'reduced juice' is juiced to the heavens at -114.
Your pal Nasher is a sucker, I'll bite on the over at -114 myself.
