    3-0, 0.93 era Gibson at +168

    Yes, yes and yes.

    And please don't counter me with, "its against David Price"

    Please. Gibson is the better pitcher today. Stop living in the past. How did Felix do last night.

    Terrible value at +168. Like the idea, but value is gone with that shit lineup.

    I dont understand this logic...if it were +200 and it lost would that be better than +168 and winning? Because there was better value?

    Long term, yes it would be better. Obviously that 1 game instance which you described would be better to win. What I'm saying is I set this line around +185, around the opener, so if I'm not getting the correct return on my investment then I'm not gonna play it. But it's all relative. If OP thinks it's good value at +168, say if he set it around +165, then all the power to him.

    Probably cause you don't understand the word value for starters.

    I remember when Shane Battier was the leading scorer through the first 5 games of the season for the Heat...

    Coming from the guy who just told me top 4 team in the league in scoring is a 'shit lineup'

    Man, that sure is some cool laughing emoticons. Really fell off your chair laughing at yourself huh?

    I don't think you understand where I'm coming from. Well, I know you don't as evidenced by your idiocy. I'm not saying Gibson doesn't win. I'm saying I think you're not getting the correct ROI.

    That 0.93 ERA is due for some, um, regression. Keep in mind what Gibson did last year over 10 starts and 51 IP -- 6.53 1.75 .327. On the other hand he was strong in AAA last year before his call up. Maybe he's figured something out this year and though I was tempted on a first look this morning I'm laying off.

    And on top of my point about your +168, +180 is now available again. So hey, you're doing it right!

    Did you say that last game against the Yankees when Price got shelled?

    Once again, Im not saying the Twins are guarantteed winner tonight. But making the point that your giving me the Twins best starter who currently is 3-0 with an under 1.00 era, at +180 value now, is fantastic bang for your buck.

    On top of that your giving me the 4th ranked team in runs scored with a TT of 3 at +100 as well.

    Both plays have terrific value

    I know Price is overPriced, but he always is. Tampa bay is tough at home, and will fight till the end, and yes minnesota has a great pitcher at their disposal but one great pitcher can have an awful outing, tampa bay has been tearing up the scoreboards against new york yankees in 2 games, and the same can happen with this match, although i don't think so, if price is back to his usual self and Gibson continues his streak, well then we're in for a long match with possible extra innings

    Mariners had also lost like 6 in a row going to last night right?

    King Felix only allowed 2 runs in 7 innings but Mariners are on a cold streak
