Take the Tigers on Friday. +228

sharper2 · 07-29-10, 11:23 PM

boston rested, didnt play today, tigers flyin from tampa to boston after getting swept, are you just taking detriot because there's literally negative reasons why to take them?

2daBank · 07-29-10, 11:24 PM

LB you were so close with zona today...you really think this one hits?

polsefest · 07-29-10, 11:24 PM

can you tell us why afterwards? Im super curious now.

Yes im convinced that the line will move in my favour. Det is a bad public perception right now and Boston is off the road trip, one of the best betting angles in sports. I really feel Lester is gonna get hit hard in this game. He pitched well in Seattle but imploded.

sharper2 · 07-29-10, 11:27 PM

The +1.5 for Detriot is even money but theyre +228 underdogs..shouldn't the +1.5 be + money?

yea i like the off the trip thing for sure.....scared of Lester though...i will certainly go look hard into it

dynamite140 · 07-29-10, 11:29 PM

Boston blowout 9-2.

Det already went down from +240 to +215 at The Greek and the RL is moving in there favour. Take the RL if you feel safer. Wait and see what the Det RRL is first before betting.

BrigadierPudding · 07-29-10, 11:34 PM

Line has dropped 20 cents at Pinny.

absolute · 07-29-10, 11:36 PM

i agree LB, this line is ridiculous. if you think about it boston hasnt been hitting the ball well when they were in seattle. they hit the ball ok vs. the angels, but they always play the angels well. i like it too. GL

sharper2 · 07-29-10, 11:36 PM

I would take the RL at +money, but I don't get why its just even money in some places, or +104 at pinnacle. I see your angle on Sox coming back from a road trip though, however the Sox got a day to rest after coming back so that might change things on that angle. Good luck though, I'll most likely tail this with a lil money..

lakerboy · 07-29-10, 11:38 PM

the bottomline is if you take the tigers now you will almost certainly beat the closing line.

paco · 07-29-10, 11:41 PM

Lb, u said u were done betting on the Tigers

This is a NBA angle LB. Loving it.

It works in MLB AND NHL as well. Your avatar is killing me houli.

HoulihansTX · 07-29-10, 11:48 PM

Yea it makes it look like I'm yelling at everyone on my posts.

No coincidences · 07-30-10, 01:38 AM

I love the Tigers dearly, but no thanks buddy.

If I miss out, I miss out. I'm not sure Galarraga's ever pitched a decent road game in his life.

I do love the "fade the first game back" angle in the NBA, but it doesn't seem to happen as often in baseball. We shall see.

I do like the under 8.5.

VTranX · 07-30-10, 01:42 AM

what are you smoking? and where can i get some?

ThisGuy · 07-30-10, 01:51 AM

I'm already there with you

Whatever happens, way too much value in that line

hush-hush · 07-30-10, 04:48 AM

What is the line for Tigers -1,5?

HOT WINGS · 07-30-10, 05:36 AM

I was thinking about this. The Tigers need a win they are a desperate team. This might be a good spot with a lot of value. GL

WiseGrumpy · 07-30-10, 06:23 AM

Didn't want to play this one, but the value is huge, and I must jump on this train with everyone else for a small bet.
GL.

CHAZ · 07-30-10, 08:03 AM

Tigers lost 13 of their last 16 games.
Galarraga is 0-2, 5.76 in his last four starts.
Magglio Ordonez, Carlos Guillen, and Brandon Inge are out.
The Tigers have lost 22 of their last 30 at Fenway Park.

Tigers it is.....

J-Ro11 · 07-30-10, 08:18 AM

as of right now; sbr is offering DET at +225, or even for +1.5

mp5070 · 07-30-10, 08:21 AM

I might take the +1.5 Detroit RL or maybe +2.5 at a good price!

Thanks.

Old Young · 07-30-10, 08:32 AM

The ML and RL looked crazy yesterday when the lines were posted and still look odd to me. Lots of value in the Det +1.5.

Dukebluejms · 07-30-10, 08:43 AM

I think the tigers definitely deserve a look. They are too good of an offensive team to be held down for long. Not to mention the sox are struggling too. At these odds I see nothing wrong with the play

JMUplayer · 07-30-10, 09:00 AM

I can't go against Lester... even @ +225.
No play is the correct play at these prices... might as well flip a coin.

rustyscrub · 07-30-10, 09:03 AM

Galarraga beat the Red Sox back in May -- but that's when Brennan Boesch was competent. Plus they had Magglio & Inge at that time too.

sharper2 · 07-30-10, 06:17 PM

Early 1-0 lead for the Tigers.

hawley · 07-30-10, 06:43 PM

2 - 0 tigers

dodger33 · 07-30-10, 07:02 PM

Uh oh
