    most likely 3...philly is in self destruction mode right now. not betting on any game 3 or 4 because ncaa fb and nfl

    besides i think all 4 series are going 1-2 for some reason. just going to chill and check the updates during the commercial breaks during those football games.

    I like the D Backs but the Rockies are on a big roll.

    pretty sure they will favor the d backs because of better record/home field advantage

    probably real small though

    maybe -125?

    rocks will be a solid play

    rockies would be favored over the dbacks in a 7 game series.

    FYI - I can confirm that the wind is blowing out very hard today in Denver. Strong gusts. Believe the weather report. At least right now at 5 pm MST. I live 2 miles from the stadium. Grass seed is flying everywhere

    The D'Backs will be the favorite because the first 2 games are in Phoenix. My guess is that Arizona will be -125 to -150.

    My guess is:

    Arizona -115
    Colorado -105

    If the Rockies had home field, I would have made them about -130, as I do think they are the better team right now. As it is, I predict Rockies in 6.

    Weren't the Cubbies favored over the D'Backs? Even with Zona's homefield advantage, I can't see them being favored over a team that's won 17/18. I'll say Rocks open -120 for the series, and I'm sure most of the early action will come in on Colorado.

    The Cubs were favored because they have a huge fan base and public money likes to bet on teams they're rooting for. The books know this and they choose the favorite on who they think the public is going to take. I'm hoping the Rockies open as a dog because I'm picking them in this series.

    That's probably true, but I think the Rocks, being that they've won 17/18, will be a big public fave in this series as well.

    Just made a small play on the Rocks -115 for the series.

    Looks like the books have been monitoring this message board and made the Rockies the faves. Dammit! I got the Rockies -118 to win the series.
