    Trap or Gift?

    Brad Penny is only -145 on Saturday against Snell.

    Why "trap or gift" Dan? Line seems about right to me. I think you are underestimating just how good Snell is already, and he will be a stud in the near future.

    As for this game, haven't looked deeply yet, but I will probably pass on both side and total. Small lean on Pitt, and even smaller lean on the Under.

    Not underestimating Snell at all personally in this particular spot LT. However look at this game from the side of the general public view, and you will what I'm getting at

    Yes, I hope that general public keeps betting the Dodgers. I want a real nice price on the Pirates come game time.

    Great. The Pirates go up 1-0. That is not good for me.

    I am on the Pirates, but it always seems like when my team goes ahead 1-0, they end up losing the game.

    You should cash DocJ.

    Don't write this game off just yet Looker. I think the Pirates will win this game for us tonight.

    Yep. Got the runs on a walk and a wild pitch.
    Just no clutch hits again.

    But I will take it anyway I can.

    Penny is having a hard time getting Snell out. Walked him once, on 6 pitches, then Snell took him for 7 more pitches the next inning.

    Helps with Penny's pitch count at least.

    I see they got out of it.

    Looks like the Dodgers are mounting a 2 out threat here in the bottom of the 5th. 1st and 2nd with 2 outs.

    whats wrong with this picture:
    Pickoff attempt to third,
    I'll tell you... Theres no base runner on third.

    The Pirates are playing like the bad news bears right now.

    If I was Snell, I would go bitch slap the entire bullpen.

    What a fitting way to end the game, on a walk off Grand Slam.

    Talk about a gift for the LA backers tonight. A walk-off grand slam for the Dodgers, and they cover the run line to boot.

    Congrats Dodgers and the over backers.
