    Gotta take my chances with him on Thursday

    I don't like betting chalk at all...but I'll make and exception here.

    Arizona -122

    Webb is just nails!

    I can't believe I'm actually getting him only minus such a small number like this. What really intrigues me about this this game is that the Snakes have a much more of a superior bullpen who got absolutely no respect all season long.

    Two things: Francis isn't as good as Webb, but he is the best the Rockies have and not much worse than Webb. Furthermore the Rockies are a stronger team than the Diamondbacks. If the series lines are right than Webb is probably cheap. However, I suspect that Webb is actually a bit overpriced and the Rockies for the series are a steal.

    anybody thinking the line looks too low to take az?

    webb only minus 120 something?

    when something looks too good to be true it usually is

    on the other hand-colo - 120 something for the series looks too good to be true also

    they seem to contradict each other

    I think the Rockies are going to win. Francis is a great pitcher. If he pitched in Arizona that ERA would be low 3 or even 2. The Rockies are riding such a good streak I think they'll take this series.

    i already have colo futures for pennant and ws

    i think i'll take a shot with colo for game one

    i really feel if colo just steals 1 on the road they cant lose at home- and the pressure of that i think makes their opponents play very tight in their home games

    Who knows who will win this."Webb is just nails! "<----funnny
    All I know is the Rockies are 18-1 in their last 19 games. Thats tough to bet against, don't you agree. Its baseball, anything can happen because the best hitters only hit the ball 30-35 times out of 100.

    We are butting heads Dan. I am betting Rockies now that I could get at least +120 on them.

    I'm with LT. Francis has good #s at Chase Field & vs. ARIZ career-wise. I'll go for the + money if I bet on this one.
