    Baseball is so fukked. I'm not watching this sport anymore until it gets fixed. About five teams can win, while half the teams are just glorified farm clubs for the big boys. Fukkin joke.

              Yes

              action gives you action, but it would be at a new price.

              no reason to ever play action.

                            I have never heard of this. Once you are locked into a price you are locked into a price. Can the Mods confirm ??

                              this is what i would think Rixsaw, how the fuk if i bet at -105 can they make me bet it at whatever the number is if Lee gets scratched? if this is really the case why the fuk would anyone ever bother betting action?

                                What if your ticket says:

                                979 Yankees vs Mariners
                                -103 MLB

                                  if your ticket says x price at that time, that is what you get. if the line goes nuts your ticket doesn't change. if you have the yanks -105 last night, action, that is what you get i don't care if yogi berra is pitching.

                                        Here's what it says on vegas.com:

                                        Listed pitcher(s) option

                                        When making a baseball bet, you are betting team vs. team. You have the option to specify that either or both listed pitchers must start the game.

                                        Since baseball odds are determined on starting pitchers, any late pitching changes often force an adjustment in the odds. This will increase or decrease the payout on a winning ticket. However, if you list starting pitchers, and your pitcher doesn't start, then the bet is refunded.

                                            Here is the rule my book carries...
                                            -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                            Pitcher Selection
                                            Baseball wagers will be accepted in the following manner:
                                            Action
                                            Team against team, regardless of the starting pitcher. "Action" bets will be computed by the opening price with the new pitcher. A pitcher is deemed a starting pitcher after throwing one pitch.

                                            -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                            Either way, getting in on the new opening price will not be too bad. Figure people are going to pound the fuk out of the Yanks. Might buy out of it depending on what happens, but I'm staying pat for now.

                                                    So, basically even though I put it a bet in with the Yankees @ -103 (which it states on my ticket) they can change my bet to lets say -150?

                                                      It's funny that anyone can call themself a Yankees fan. How could someone wish success upon an organization that is nothing more than a carousel of this year's hottest acquisition? With a few obvious exceptions (Jeter, Posada, Rivera, Rivera), there are no career Yankees, no developed players you watch for an entire career, just hired guns who are ready to play for the highest bidder.

                                                      It's pathetic.

                                                        i can't see how that is possible. you take the patriots to win the superbowl at 6 to 1 and brady goes down for the year so now they tell you it is 20 to 1 or vice versa.? no chance, you get what you get when you make the bet.

                                                          It's baseball bro. How many teams actually do have that?There are a few exceptions on every team to go along with a bunch of journeymen. Just the way it is.

                                                                I seems like to me that the Yankees get someone good every year.

                                                                  Jeter, Rivera, Posada, Pettitte, Thames, Cano, Robertson, Hughes, Chamberlain, Johnson and Pena. There are others who are homegrown that have played but are not currently on the 40 man roster as well.

                                                                  Welcome the MLB. How many teams have players where you watch their entire careers anyway?
