    Lines that seem off Friday in mlb

    Pirates +120 (@ LA)...wrong team favored I think.
    Marlins +127 (vs Braves)...is anybody seriously gonna play Braves the way both these teams have played lately? What are oddsmaker thinking here? It's not last year's pathetic Marlins team.
    Rangers +160 (@Nats)...Come on now

    Please help me understand these lines...

    Nats vs Rangers is classic case of ace vs gas can. But i hear ya... Nationals offense is not as good as Rangers.

    Pirates are a very strong play i like that. But ofcourse books gotta respect Dodgers at home and make
    Liriano prove himself which i think he will. LA is a good pitchers park at night and Beckett certainly can't duplicate last weeks performance.

    I think the Marlins line has value as well. Koehler is very good. The under might be worth a look in that one.

    2 solid pitchers in a very pitcher friendly park.

    Betting for a 20-8 home team vs a 10-13 road team that is struggling.

    To me, Braves an Nats are worst plays on board tonight....too much juice for both...Both might lose too.

    Rangers line way off, Strasburg always over valued

    just play the under in mia and the over in wash problem solved. Fish wont hit Tehran and braves wont hit koehler 1+1=2 and if y'all think that tex will beat the phoneme then play the damn over because the only way nats lose is if strasburg has 1 of his infamous 1st or 2nd inn 4ER implosions. Dont over complicate these things...this aint the nba.

    LAD PIT line does seem off when you consider Dodgers hit LHP at an MLB-worst .216 with a lousy .288 OBP. Liriano's peripherals aren't bad but still I have no confidence in him this season. He's had just one start that I'd consider good, vs. MIL.

    Speaking of MIL, they are barely better than LAD in OBP vs. LHP and face tonite a lefty themselves in Travis Wood. The Cubs at +145 against a shaky Estrada are interesting; they've gotta break their 20-inning scoreless streak sometime...

    Cueto was shelled, kershaw was rocked and waino keeps losing to the cubs. All the aces have bad games now and then...
