wasn't there a thread going earlier, that someone said it was a lock to take the over on Hou/Mil?

[JAHgger4noz]

hmmmm, well i was the idiot that said houston is good for 1 win in a series these days, either game 1 or 2 vs Milw.

[louisvillekid]

nevermind, i went to my profile and looked for my previous posts, it got moved to a private thread.

I hate the .5 on an over . 9 is not a low # really . 6 - 3 , 5 -4 , the unbalanced showing is of course a killer for an over >> 8 - 1 , 7 -2 , 9 - 0 , yeah right . Friggin 5 - 3 was a score I looked for 1 year every time Mil was at home . When doing an over , I hate the 9.5 line almost as much as 10 .5 . So with that being said by lucky me , the over is a cinch . 8 - 5 , 6 - 4 , 6 - 5 , 9 - 6 . This was chinese huh . I dont like the o/u here .

I believe most people play the word asocaition game alot when handicapping baseball .
A capper sees the starters name and jumps to immediate conclusions .
Because a pitcher is up from the minors or out of the bullpen does not mean that guy will pitch poorly , or that the hitters will be all over him (various reasons for each side )
We see the poor era and tend to jump to the over scenario quicker than Bate runs for his dictionary when clicking post quick reply .
While the %s are probably no better than 50 + % to use this quick to judgement over or go against when seeing the unknown or high era straters, it always seems a wise play before the first pitch .

Note : directed towards post above : sept 19th in the last stretch run of baseball season is not exactly a great time to be posting what I posted . The bullpen would not exactly be rested this late in the season , nor would the starters . Some pitchers arms may be like jelly and not last long , but what do I know , they refused to answer my calls just now .....
Going by the # s of bush starts AT Hous , finals were 5 - 4 and 10 - 1 , that is no indicator whatsoever if we had to try and use that .
If one of the starters get chased early then I would love to be on the over 9 . 5 .
Astros starter got rocked at home by the nats , did he learn anything from that start , hold on my crystal ball is fizzing ....
I have no idea how to strongly foresee Gutierrez pitching tonight .
If you do plz fill me in ?
I look at houston as a hitters park and someone gave me feedback on here that texas was more of a hitters park than Houston .
If he thinks houston is indeed a hitters park I have no clue , Wille !!!
Bush just got lit up the start before last AT CINN a hitters park and he didnt make it past 4 inn last wed at the Pirates giving up 4 runs 5 hits 2 walks .
Do these facts mean anything tonight ?
If your answer is yes then the over 9.5 like someone originally posted as a lock seems a good shot .

MIL/HOU 0-0 after 3...a lock for the over??don't think so...

[dodif]

My bad , I left out the 3 - 2 result and all the other totaly improbable low scoring results . We never think a 9.5 could be 1 - 0 , 2 - 1 , or friggin 3 - 2 . Amazing . It still could go over though in one of those "NO WAYS" !!!

[pokernut9999]

Fat Lady has not sung yet !!!!

[WestsidePete]

wow...BOHICA time for Brad Lidge ..gives up 2 run HR in the 9th 4-4 now...

[pokernut9999]
