    This bet looks too good to be true but.....
    If this is bait, then consider me a fish. The New York Mets and Mike Pelfrey are at home against the the Pittsburgh freakin Pirates. Now check this out. Charlie Morton is chuckin' for the Pits. The guy is 1-11 with an ERA over 9! I mean what the hell! How bad are the Pirates? How do you think the manager's/coaches conversation goes when they start this guy, something like "Well if we can get 10 runs on the board we've got a chance here."

    5Dimes has the Mets at -1.5 runs (+120). Call me a square but I'll take my chances on the Mets lighting this guy up and winning this one by more than 1.

    Morton actually looked halfway decent his last time out.

    That's about the only thing positive I can say here in PIT's favor, though.

        Right No Coin, it was his best outing in a long time but hey, he still got tagged for 3 runs. Hawley, I said the same thing about the Ravens?jets regarding the under. I posted a thread saying the Under was the play but it looked too easy. You can't over think these things. The only thing you can do is bet them but no bury them if you think there's an "issue" that you're not seeing.

          i agree that mets -1.5 is the play, i just think getting it at plus money looks like a real trap

          ill wait and see what hte line does closer to closing but i might make a play

                            Helps NYM that Tichenor's behind home plate, too.

                            20-8 in favor of the home team.

                              Well the books nailed this line! too much juice on the mets "should win" and just enough on pitt for a "could win" This is a coin flip for me so I'm staying away. Goodluck though

                                  Very nasty weather right now. Tornado warning for Citi Field area. If they play, it will be nearly an empty house.

                                    I'm actually surprised to see how much of the public is backing PIT -- 29% ML and 30% RL.

                                                            Rf thank you pal. Soxwin, he did look decent. Poor bastard could pitch a no hitter with that team and find a way to lose.
