Cardinals killer Bud Norris at +230?!?!

[No coincidences]

Before you think a STL win is a shoo-in, look at what this guy's done in his career against the Cards:

3 GS, 3-0 record, 18 IP, 17 K, 0.00 ERA.

Granted he sucks donkey balls against everyone else, but are you really going to lay that kind of chalk here? Carp's been his usual solid self this season, but his wins have come against Cincinnati twice, Atlanta and the Muts. This game's far from a given.

Interesting note NC-I was looking at the line and the results from the past days thinking-what the heck am I missing here? I wonder if he's worth a gamble at that price? Cheers, thanks for the heads up.

Hi...

im taken cards ...

This isn't necessarily an endorsement for HOU, but rather, a warning if you're going big on StL.

Should the Cardinals win? Of course. It's baseball, though, and are you going to lay that kind of chalk against a guy who obviously has this team's number?

[dodger33]

I agree but sample size is too small and I will take the law of averages. It is not a coincidence that the man has a 7 era. Even if he pitches his ass of tomrrow Carpenter will show up and prove why he is a CY Young candidate.

0.5u each on:

Parlay: HOU ML / O7.5
Parlay: HOU ML / U7.5

Just for fun.

i like what you're thinking NC. did anyone think the stros' had a chance to even salvage a win against the cards? Pujols is ice cold, holliday isn't even good... the rest of the lineup is just awful. I'm not endorsing the astros either, but at this point it's them or a no play for me

[jtang0701]

still going with STL, good luck with whatever everyone ends up playing!

[Dexter]

laying 3/1 chalk on 1 game in a sport where there are 162 games is pure insanity to me....

guess it really doesnt matter what he does against ever one else since hes playing the cards so go houston

[HedBustah1]

good info

[lenahanj]

might have to place a small wager on the astros idk though carpenter is a monster

[CHAZ]

Maybe UNDER 7.5 is the bet....

Ya, and anybody can beat the Muts!

matt holliday is stiffs defined!

Cmon dude they are +230 for a reason, you might get lucky and hit this but this is not a +EV wager

look at recent match up. seem very tempting to take hoston. bud is nice i just think odd maker making this bad due to recent bad pitching by buds, bud state is pretty nice

[Cosmo213]

Astros +1.5 +125 (5Dimes Reduced Juice)

Great value IMO

IMHO, it should be a no play for everyone. That much chalk on a single MLB game is madness.

[mandude]

I agree. Laying that heavy chalk on Stl is not a smart bet. I wouldnt even touch the R/L here either. Yes Norris does suck but for whatever reason he has the history of showing up against Stl & Stl seems to be in a funk of late. I would say it's Hou +260 or no play.

[fatty mcgoo]

My local has houston @ +270 still, so i should probably put this in right

[bigsmitty]

I still don't get why it should be no play altogether. Houston has won the past two outings! Throw in the Bud history gig and the insane line against and it should be a part of every bettors reportoire (word of the day). Cheers

I feel like something is wrong here.

[WiseGrumpy]

I'm a Houston native and a big fan, I bet the first two and I have a bet tonight.
This time with the +1.5 though.
Let's go astros!!!

[sheffield77]

Bud Norris is getting rocked today he can't get lucky forever

[MUHerd37]

It's hard to imagine that the Cardinals could get swept at home against Houston. Norris' one win this year against the Cards was against Lohse who is 0-3. Carpenter is 4-0 with an era that is half of Lohse's. The key I think will be whether or not the Cards' bats will finally wake up.

[No coincidences]

Hope some of you thought twice here.

[PorkChop]

Wow.

Hope u played it.

DOnt know what the F is wrong with St.Louis.
Houston is one of the worst teams in the league.

Only reason i didnt bet Cards, was cause there value was ridiculous.
