    Seems like the value lies in fading them at this point... how many games in are they now?

    I don't think I ever have seen a -500 line in MLB.. That would be a trip!! .. I'd have to pass if that ever happened I think.. I'd be forced to play the -1.5 line for sure if that happened in this streak..

    I think they're winning the next 3. But you don't have to bet every game either. Or you can open parlay as well. They are cooking with hot grease right now. Got to put the fish in the pan while it's hot.

    Would you really fade a team on a 17 game winning streak???

    If you flipped a coin 17 times and it came up heads, would you bet tails the next time? Odd's are you are playing with a loaded coin. This Indians team is loaded right now.

    If they beat the A's' streak by one and you get +300 each game, you break even. If they tie, you win

    That's how you lose money in gambling.. That's like hitting green on the roulette table in Vegas.. It will happen at some point but hitting when it happens is a huge long shot.. Historic trends in this sport can't even dictate that....

    I didn't say I was gonna do that. Lol

    I just said at the price and at this point in the streak, it seems there is more value in the fade.

    Don't think I will be doing either.

    If I was taking a side, it would definitely be on the Indians. I actually think the Indians are, dare I say it, a lock tomorrow.

    Odds are only -220 today.. Tomlin isn't that great and Junis is a pretty good pitcher for KC.. Indians have their hands full today.. Still in on the Tribe!!! https://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/kansas-...ans-370914105/

    $220.00 $100.00 Pending 9/14/17 7:10pm MLB Baseball 968 Cleveland Indians -220* vs Kansas City Royals (J Junis - R must Start J Tomlin - R must Start)

    ^^^With all due respect Greaser, I don't understand how anyone can bet against a winning streak like this?? Especially at these skinny odds.. If you're gonna take a shot wait til it the odds are +350 or something like that..

    Looking at the game, I hate the royals here. Lol

    But the line has moved 50 cents with 70% of the wagers on Cleveland.

    We shall see what happens

    Today could be the day, I am on Royals +195. And no, I have not faded the Indians much during the 21-game win streak, only twice back on Sept 4th and 6th.

    I cannot fade a fiery hot team. The Indians aren't just hot, they are on fire. I would rather pass than fade.

    I'm actually a little nervous with this game.. It's gonna take a really good game from Tomlin and the Tribe bats I think to get this down.. GO INDIANS.. Keeping hope alive and the streak ...

    Wouldn't this logic lead to a bet on the O9 runs? I am not really a baseball fan but the line seems strange to me for a team on this kind of run.

    Yes it would and I was thinking about the Over earlier.. Not a bad idea in this game..
