You'd be out of your mind to think the pirates win again
Every square on the planet is picking the pirates based on the last 2 games, that never works out at +230 odds. Cubs will not be swept.
Wager your roll on this.

reason the line is so high is the chase systems, and individual chasers...
In reality this line should be about cubs -140 if that...
and its baseball, even the worst teams win about 60 games a year and the best teams lose 60... hell the cubs are gonna lose 80 this year....
there is nothing CLOSE to a lock in baseball

Ya, just like the Cards would not get swept by the Astros. It's pro sports, bad teams beat up good teams( and Cubs are not even that good) all the time. Wake up.

people cannot imagine the surfire winner the cubs are today and the riches that befall upon them today. teams like the cubs with a roster full of all-stars is what you dream of on days like today. if ernie where there he'd want to play two.

It's the sixth most bet on game as of right now and 60% of the bets are on the Cubs. Yesterday is was the 9th most betted on game. I guess the Squares as you call them are betting other games than the Cubs/Pirates.

cubs may win, but I sure the hell am not putting any money on them. May just put a few bucks on the pirates.

I feel for anyone that is blindly using a system instead of going through games themselves. Obviously you need to be able to be able to figure out at least a reasonable line for every game based on the available stats. Put yourself in the bookie position and ask yourself if you would be willing to pay 2.5x wagers on a game such as the Cubs. Good luck all.

This is exactly how vegas wants you guys to think, all of you guys to blow your load on the buccos thinking you found gold and then the cubs blow them out. Take the cubs for your whole account and thank me afterwards.

Yes bro it is. The books know what the system plays are, they inflate the lines on the games. People will still bet on the first and second game and when it goes to a C Bet some people get scared and will lay off and the books get a nice payday off those suckers.

Today I will make it back, Risk 10 grand on the -250. Lilly will not embarrass the city of chicago anymore than it already has. I had 2000 on them SU so I still profited.

Tail if you want to make 4000 dollars fade if you want to lose 10 grand. I don't have anything to prove other than try to make money and give winning advice. We'll celebrate after the game.

hasnt pittsburgh won 5 straight this year vs the cubs, its one of the few teams theyve played well against, i couldnt take the cubs at that price, they may win, but its too risky on 2 bad teams

I'm not sure to tail you yet yesterday you said the KC could not win back to back games and they did, and the Pitt -2.5 play yesterday didn't work out for you. maybe we should fade you on this big Cubs bet.

KC lost last night buddy, I was dead on accurate about them not being able to. Cashed in big with the sox, now I will cash in HUGE on the cubbies.

who in the world would take the cubs at -250? they've lost to the pirates 5 times this year and are put lilly on the mound. the cubs are an awful play today at these odds. i'm taking the pirates at +210.
