    Bullpens have to be...

    The biggest single thing that sucks about betting MLB. It's unreal how many relievers lose games or push totals over.

    I feel you. If it wasn't for Romo and Jansen I would have had an even better baseball season thus far. Always important to factor the pens into a play

    many solid pens out there. totals staying under for the most part. have made a lot of cash in-game betting with certain teams and clutch relievers. guy must not be able to win or it overreacting to one game

    Chew on this: no steroids.

    Can you imagine how bad some of these losers would be if it was 2004 right now instead of 2014?

    don't even get me started on pitching. last two weeks it seems like every game i bet on, a terrible pitcher has a career day, and a great pitcher is terribly bad. Not to mention the BP. Just has gone on and on and on. To the point where I am about ready to give it up and just wait for the football season. Lost way too much money, was up a like 950, now its down to a couple hundred.

    Exactly. Boeing Power is SBR's number one troll. A real piece of garbage.

    so its easier to come into a game cold with runners on 1st and 3rd having to throw strikes?

    why do starting pitchers have their worst split era's in the first inning? isnt that a reliever situation

    relievers are up this year. by far. have to cash in to see it tho

    Sure, this is true. Its just a complete mind penetrate though. Seems like the entire world is against you, when you do everything right, and yet you still continue to lose.

    Bat Man, is just angry about his under getting rocked to the tune of 12 runs in the last two innings. It makes him feel better to come here & cry about it.
    .....And Boeing Power isn't your worst troll Bat Man






    I am
