Are you really gonna lay -220 with the Oakland A's tonight?

[lakerboy]

Obviously Bannister is a hurting pitcher but you gotta ask yourself how could the A's be -220?

The wise play is Royals +1.5 -110.

[No coincidences]

I normally don't, but I'm taking the RL here. Square as square can be.

[limitation]

I got them at -190 last night.

[Kav]

only added them in a parlay with the jays, hopefully the a's come through with a one run win so we are both winners.

I know I have a special line out, but you might be right on the run line play. I will not be shocked to see a 4-3, 5-4 win by the A's.

[emoney]

Have them in a parlay with Boston, not looking good.

[broadway6]

-220 is a little steep for a team that doesn't have one starter batting .300 and only one batting higher than .280...but it's baseball.... its square

[lakerboy]

Good call A's backers. I just hope they win by 1 only.

[No coincidences]

You dodged a serious bullet there, LB.

[Kav]

bannister is settling down after that high pitch count first inning, i just hope the a's friggin hold on to this run.

[Rbyrne]

Im big on the A's runline.....all the dogs already won today....Jays, Indians, Brewers, and Astros

[Rbyrne]

big 2 run double baby.....go A's runline..........lakerboy....never take KC....next time dont over think it

[lakerboy]

big 2 run double baby.....go A's runline..........lakerboy....never take KC....next time dont over think it

A's -5.68 units on the rl and +1.84 units on the ml
KC --4.74 units on the rl and -1.62 units on the ml.

I took the royals on the Rl versus a team that hasnt made money at all .

[Rbyrne]

Ok LB....KC recently just traded away 3 of their best hitters and have another one on the DL...Dejesus.....anikiel, callapsso, and posednik...their all important lead off hitter

never bet a team that just traded away 3 of their best hitters.....they have won 3 in a row....all vs the Orioles...the chances KC wins 4 in a row????? very bad


Cahill lost his last home start to the White Sox....which means he wont lose 2 home starts in a row

[Rbyrne]

Another reason to bet the A's is.....look at all the dogs covering today....what are the chances another dog covers??? not likely....i had 3 plays today...astros ml, braves ml, braves and mets under 6.5, and A's runline


looks like im bout to go 4-0 baby

[lakerboy]

aight cool buddy. i actually didnt bet royals to win.

[Rbyrne]

Bannister has thrown 88 pitches threw 4 innings with 4 walks.....WOW

[Rbyrne]

OK buddy cool....well your runline bet aint gonna cover either....but goodluck...stick to the nba.....to bad the Heat are gonna own the league for the next 6 years

[SprtsCapnGuru]

Ankiel wasn't really one of our best hitters considering he was hurt most of the year

[lakerboy]

OK buddy cool....well your runline bet aint gonna cover either....but goodluck...stick to the nba.....to bad the Heat are gonna own the league for the next 6 years

What is your baseball record this year?

[SprtsCapnGuru]

I'm confused as to why everybody is claiming victory on a game that still has 4 more innings?

[thebayareabeast]

I straight bet them at -215, I rarely lose when I lay heavy juice I usually pick good spots

[Rbyrne]

um because we have an all star pitcher on the mound vs AAA hitters and the KC bullpen is horrible...thats why

[thebayareabeast]

um because we have an all star pitcher on the mound vs AAA hitters and the KC bullpen is horrible...thats why

[Rbyrne]

Ankiel was the difference in the braves mets game tonight....trust me he was one of yalls better hitters


Big 2 out home run....5-0 A's


Im glad a double downed on the A's runline

[SprtsCapnGuru]

He has one good game with the braves and that makes up for the fact that he was a wuss all year with a BS injury that he got while falling over a water cooler in spring training?...trust me, it was all over the news here....here was as sorry as the saints defense!

[Rbyrne]

haha sorry as the Saints defense??? ok lets not even go there because we did win the superbowl...so i guess our defense couldnt of been that bad....we only had the most interceptions in the league and the most points scored off those ints

Ankiel is a beast...under rated...i realize he only played about 27 games for the sorry ass Royals so maybe thats why you couldnt see his potentiol....he is a clutch hitter that will help the braves down the stretch

[Gee]

after the yanks and redsox epic fail, i laid a LOT of money on this... bad money management, because if it loses, i'm back to $20 units i think i'm sweet though...

[Rbyrne]

Yea i didnt lay -220 on the moneyline...i got the runline at +105 which is great....i never lay -220....just referring to the thread title


KC has hit into 3 double plays....wait it could be 4...im not sure i lost count

[SprtsCapnGuru]

yeah...wanted to take a cheap shot at the Super Bowl champs....felt good though...Hope the Royals pull this one out, but probably won't....just get shocked when people who bet on sports all the time call a game a lock when it's only half way over! Seen some crazy things happen. Remember you said Ankiel is a beast....that's a bold statement!

[tanner40]

I straight bet them at -215, I rarely lose when I lay heavy juice I usually pick good spots

That is what I try to do. The Mets burned me yesterday doing this though

[Rbyrne]

Yea i usually dont call things locks before its over unless im 110% sure.....and in this case i am

[tofuman]

i took -1.5 so i was alright
