Good luck Wilforth. Good luck on your plays tonight.

Goodluck today LB, I don't like much today. Gonna take it lightly with just 2 plays.

Thanks bro. I already made my money in soccer today. I will probably give it all back at night time.

What you on?

I would be careful with the Rockies today. I know both teams are bad at the moment but the Rocks are horrible on the road this year going 23-36. They're especially bad on the first game of a road series going 5-14 this season. Their B/A agianst lefties last 5 is .190 & overall on the road against lefties .233 for the season. What sucks is I think LA is priced too high here & add a little rlm makes LA look fishy. I just dont like Col on the road. They're a completely different team away from Coors. GL with your plays though.

And the Dodgers are equally bad when Kershaw pitches in the 1st game of a series. Dodgers are 2-12 in Kershaw's last 14 starts during game 1 of a series. Fading the Dogders when Kershaw is pitching the 1st game of a series has been a "cultural" play for me.

Thanks for pointing that out. Based on both of these shitty game one trends, I think this game is untouchable for me. There's no way I can back Col here with as bad as they are on the road. Both teams suck right now. There are better games to bet on tonight. GL with the Col play.

I wouldn't bet that game with your money, let alone mine.

lb...u got any opinion on the total in the twins game?...60% on the over yet it dropped from 8.5 to 7.5

That's not a good sign for Twin backers IMHO.

MIN traditionally hits Danks hard. If oddsmakers were expecting a repeat of that tonight, that number wouldn't be plummeting.

**No coincidences** · 08-17-10, 04:55 PM

What's even more bizarre about that total dropping:

Why are the Cards still stuck in the -175 range on the ML?

my only opinion on that game is that the white sox win .

because milwaukee owns them at busch.

**chibears** · 08-17-10, 05:45 PM

hey LB i have a question. you are a line movement expert. what does it mean when the Orioles line is plummeting to -116 right now when it has been holding steady all day today at about -125 range. does that favor the orioles or mariners?

i have to agree now..something fishy goin on there..bought off my twins bet

**Pauulzcappin** · 08-17-10, 05:56 PM

Hey LB, doesn't the Twins line look bad?

It means one of two things. THe books are trying to get you to take the M's or there is serious coin on the M's.

Yes- the Cards are due. THe rl opened so low. You know i wont pay -180.

**SRBI** · 08-17-10, 05:57 PM

Can't believe I'm fadin Bucho at home tonight and going with the Angels with you LB...for some reason though it feels right, lets hope so

I havent looked much at that game but my gut tells me that the sox are the play there.

**Pauulzcappin** · 08-17-10, 06:00 PM

70ish% of the public on Twins and line only moved 1 cent since opening.

**lakerboy** · 08-17-10, 06:03 PM

Okay i see that now paul. I believe that the white sox are the play.

**Pauulzcappin** · 08-17-10, 06:04 PM

I wasn't gonna make a play on this game but I might take the Sox now.

Last time there were those bad lines by the public backed team, they both lost.

**SRBI** · 08-17-10, 06:05 PM

I just put a half unit on Verlander +158 1st 5 - why did I just do that I don't know, hope it hits

**lakerboy** · 08-17-10, 06:10 PM

Rays RL +130 (1 UNIT)
