    Lester: Cubs ????

    How the hell is Jon Lester and the Cubs worth -260 !!!! Are they kidding??? This is guy is a far cry from Kershaw & Mad max & Greinke. WOW. They are making Philly worth a serious look.

    No doubt Mag.
    Even Phils TT (U 3) is juiced at -125...not worth betting this game.

    2 weeks ago I would have agreed, but since the break Philly has won 5 and the one loss was by a single run. Either I chance Philly or just skip it, most likely skip it. lester doesn't look good on paper, but his numbers are basically good , but he gets no run support.

    jerome is a freaking gas can tho. you still right that phils only playable side but it only cause there virtually no gms they fav is worth that price and we talking cubs who not exactly consistent and at times strand runners like it their favorite stat. playing a phils team that at least trying. for me i think if you made me play a side id either consider over (havnt looked at wind or anything, of total, lol) or scrubbies -.5 ff but that just off top of my head and considering that prob juiced id never do it. i think it insane to lay juice on rls.

    I have faded williams for the past 2 months and it has worked really well, he has an ERA upwards of 8 on the road. He is the type of pitcher who's best case scenario is 5 innings 3 runs. So i like cubs - 1.5

    Totally agree. The line now is at -277. Insane! I think I'll do a principled play on Phillies ML +247. It's Lester and the Cubs for goodness sake. I also like Cubs TT UNDER 5.

    If it was anyone but Williams maybe would make a play on the phils. Going with the Cubs.

    CAUTION HERE!!! I stated earlier Philly's have won 5 of last 6, and lost one by 1 run, this is true. HOWEVER, I forgot to mention those were all HOME games for them. They are on the road tonight. Might make a difference.

    Cubs are free money here.

    The 2nd best line-up in the NL with a solid starting pitcher.

    yeah Lester is no Greinke or Scherezer but he is solid and the Cubs have a great hitting team.

    Anybody who bets on Jerome Gas Can Williams in this spot might as well just light their money on fire.

    That's why I said to myself last time Jerome Williams started a game. Phillies lost that game 19-3. I'd donate my money to charity insted of ever betting on that gas can again.
