    Boston minus 125 vs Yankees????? Help Me Out Fellas

    Why is Boston favorites in this Game, You Got CC Sabathia vs Dumpster and no I didn't spell that wrong, he is terrible. Is this a trap, I get it Boston is home team, but that is it. I want to play the Yankees heavy but line is scaring me, I thought line would be Boston as a slight favorite but Heritage had them at minus 120 this morning now it is up to minus 125, seems like the money is on Boston, help me out, what do you all think is going on. Thanks

    Im not sure, I think that if you have it specified or have the pitchers listed that you may be able to void the bet, I guess you got to call and ask the book. Yea I agree, the Yankees don't have much by way of hitters right now but I just think that if CC is on his game he can keep Boston down to 1 or 2 runs, maybe the Under is a better way to go.

    CC has been HORRIBLE this year and NYY doesn't have a NYY lineup! BOS is hitting better as well! I'm not surprise that BOS is the favorite!

    My money is on the Yankees though! CC will figure it out eventually! Hopefully it's tonight!

    Sabathia is not the same pitcher he's been in the past and the Yankees lineup is mediocre at best. Dempster been pitching rather poorly since leaving the Cubs, but I actually like Boston here at a fair price.

    Amazing band, very few bands have captured the awesome sound that Tom Scholz got out of the instruments he made. Ton of good tunes. Don't Look Back may be my fave actually.

    Take the better hitting. A bad pitcher can always be pulled...

    I bet some on the Yankees but it hurts to do it.

    Compare the lineups.

    The Yankees have Cano. The Red Sox have Pedroia, Ortiz, Ellsbury, Napoli...

    Yankees are unbackable with the lineup they put out there tonight. I have a significantly large wager on BOS.

    Nothing is wrong with the Yankees lineup. That's how it's been day in and out.
    What scares me is that Yankees is a huge public dog because of C.C. Let's see how that goes.

    For the most part, yes. Except for Almonte.

    But the lineup does stink.

    ESPN announcers talking about how Girardi is using this revolutionary concept of putting your best hitters in the top four spots of the lineup.

    Only lineup play I know that is gutsy is hitting your better hitter in the 5th spot over 3rd.

    Couldn't take the Yanks although I really wanted to, instead I took the over 8.5
    I don't expect Fatboy and Dumpster to have pitching duel

    Youre telling me there is no one in the MLB better than what the yanks have 4-9? These guys are virtually automatic outs, take out the first 5 weeks and this is one of the worst offensive teams I remember

    Plenty of guys are. They're on the other MLB teams.

    The Yankees don't feel like trading prospects away for short term help.

    What the Yankees have are the guys other teams have dumped. The dregs.

    Gardner and Cano would start on the vast majority of teams. Ichiro and Nunez would start on some teams. That's really it. The rest are replacement players.

    Brock Landers or Beaner probably bet the Yankees and started celebrating. Can't beat the mush.
