Still four innings left... but yeah, BAL is looking damn good. If Cliff Lee can't get it done, who will?

too bad tillman probably won't get the chance to go for the perfect game even if he keeps up the great work. 89 pitches through 6 for 22 year-old kid, hard to see him hanging around til 9th at this pace.

They sucked in a whole lot of bettors on this one.
They could have made the Rangers -400, even -500 favorites and the public would still pound the line.
Balt would have also have quite a few bettors on them, especially after last nights win, and with the poor play of Texas. I did not bet them, but can see why people would have. Vegas is not going to just give a Texas line away, and with Cliff Lee starting lots of people obviously pounded them at -400, but I cannot see why anyone would lay that money. Hope lots of the SBR's were on Balt and not Texas.

Maybe Cliff lee told his old mates to jump on Balt, like "hey guys, this ones for you-take it t o the bank!"

I reckon the line won't move that much for tomorrow's game... Vegas has bankrupted the public on these last 3 games

Hopefully Baltimore wins again. Texas deserves to get four-game swept by the worst team in baseball after screwing everyone yesterday. I wasn't touching them again today after that lifeless effort.

they didn't screw everyone. anyone that has a clue either took baltimore or nothing. you don't bet huge favorites in baseball ever no matter what as i say it until my hair hurts. keep thinking because a team is favored -200 or more they are going to win. it doesn't work like that.

Relax. I had them in a parlay, which they cost me.

Maybe it's the Cliff Lee curse....giving up 4 players for a rental is pretty expensive for a shot. All they're trying to do is up the worth of the franchise if they win so they can bilk the next buyers. Personally, MLB should of clamped down on them because of the bankruptcy.

Had the O's for $1000000, Vegas lost big yesterday. How I wish I could say that, but truth is I was sucked into the rediculously expensive Rangers ML and am looking at a tough uphill climb to recover my loss. I for one learnt my lesson yesterday.
