    Tampa -203

    I know this will win but who is playing it?

    Lol.

    It goes against everything I believe in but I might just play it.

    This coming from a guy that usually never plays anything over -150 in bases and plays more dogs than faves.

    It's so ridiculous it has to hit. You would think this would be like -175 or something tops.

    170 is exactly what I thought it would b. I don't mind playing -200 in baseball, if I feel it's a "lock" like tanaka at home or something like that. But this is in no way a lock

    I'm not saying it won't win, but what makes you that confident about a team that has won only one game out of their last ten (one of those loses was -210) and nine of those ten games they were listed as favorites?

    1-12 last 13, just put in small bet on Seattle just because. Bad teams find a way to lose.

    They wouldn't be -200 if they were almost a sure thing.

    Oddsmakers know everything you just stated.

    I'm not saying this is a smart play. It's actually stupid.

    I haven't played it yet either. I would imagine people are going to fade Tampa at that price regardless. This might come down tomorrow.

    Agreed, too much value on their side IMO at +185.

    you would be amazed how many early game favorites lose. should start tracking these.

    about the game: tampa is the worst team in baseball and even if they are going against mr. magoo he would be the play at +185, even if it has a high chance of being a losing one. haven't capped the game but based on the lines i'd say seattle is the play

    What baffles me is that they open at -203.

    paulz right i always lose my first morning game (fav or dog) so i'm taking seattle for the $$$.

    Rays cant win a game to save their life, they have lost 11 outta 12 and if they manage to win somehow, oh well... id rather take the chance to win big than bet on the rays. its the earliest game too, i can always place another parlay if they win.

    Mariners hot rays not. Rays got a huge pitching advantage. Mariners definitely better team but their pitcher blows.

    Thought price would shut them down and they could score a few of Seattle's pitcher.

    It was dumb. I know.

    easy one, they got shutout by a scrub through five and seattle actually has a solid bullpen

    should probably always fade early game favorites
