    Should Cole Hamels be -160 tonight

    I realize Locke isn't very good, but Hamels has been dogshit this year and the Pirates are arguably a more complete team than the Phils right now.

    I guesstimated -140 at first look. It's close enough for a no bet 4 weeks into a 23 week season

    I have the Pirates +125-130 in this one.

    At +147, I'm interested.

    Something I found about Hamels: Philadelphia #Phillies have NEVER lost 5 consecutive starts by Cole Hamels in his career (2006-13)

    hamels gets his first win tonight.

    facing the pirates is exactly what Hamels needs.

    All hes gotta do is pitch around McCutchens and the rest of the Pirates line-up is straight up dog shit

    It's a little high but prob. right. Pitt. is not having much luck vs. lefties this year, with a team BA of just .150 and scoring avg. of 1.8 runs per game.

    I really appreciate your efforts, Jeff, but this is irrelevant information and really steers "surface" gamblers in the wrong direction. The trend is not your friend when it comes to "factoids" like this. It is meaningless happenstance, regardless of what happens tonight.
