White Sox (+190)

I would think that the NYM/MIL line will move a bit in NYM's direction tomorrow. That's about all I see right now though.

I am taking ATL tonite -165. Teixeira is expected to play for ATL tomorrow....James has given up 2 runs or less in each of his last 5 starts and Sampson is 1-2 with a 5.77 ERA in his last 7 starts for HOU. Also, ATL won 14-0 on SUN so they're feeling good about the win and the trade..add in HOU is only 18-34 on the road this year...I think this line will change if Teixeira starts, so I'm rolling with the idea he will.

I say Cards go up to -120 higher
and
Rockies go up to -110 or higher

WestsidePete · 07-31-07, 12:32 AM

yes I agree...cards and rockies to go up...

MonkeyF0cker · 07-31-07, 12:36 AM

Yeah, I can see it in the Rockies game. But I don't find anything special about the Cards game, honestly. Pretty even matchup in pitching and righty/lefty splits. Unless people chase the small streaks they're on...

Red Sox -150 or higher

Braves -175?
higher?

MonkeyF0cker · 07-31-07, 12:58 AM

The risk/reward of purely hoping to scalp lines of -150 or worse isn't worth it to me. It would have to be a pick that I was willing to make and I almost never lay that much wood. If you get 10 points on the back end of it, so you get +160 for the other side (which is a fairly hefty movement) you only get a 2.5% return. And if it doesn't move, then you're stuck with a turd of a pick...

braves -175 definitely...especially w/ added help to the lineup, people will jump on board tomorrow before game time if that happens...I mean we're talking the difference from having Julio Franco a 48 year old at first base being replaced by a good power hitter...
