    Anyone else feel like taking the Orioles +390 today on principle?

    I mean give me a break. Plenty of capable hitters and a capable starter. Could be a lazy Sunday afternoon trap game for JV and 'Stros.

    Value, Leet, value. A sharp capper cannot ignore this kind of value staring him in the face. Not saying a max bet, just a min bet.

    (IMHO) I'm not sure there's any value in taking the Birds; even at +420 or +430.

    But ya never know. If the Birds pull it off it could be the biggest sports upset since Buster Douglas vs Iron Mike Tyson.

    Define value in this case? What does it consist of?

    Quite simply, it's an overinflated line, in my opinion. You're entitled to disagree and see no value.

    Wow. 3 run, inside the park homer in the top of the ninth to screw you. Still pulling for you.

    Right after the Orioles stranded 3 with just 1 out. Good team.
