    Keep rollin w/ Strasburg while u can get him cheap

    I know the trendy thing to do is fade Strasburg, and believe he is being overvalued, but u gotta roll w/ this kid while u can get him cheap. In the not to distant future he will be -175+ on the regular. As long as Wash. pen is avg and they have those heavy hitters in the middle that can provide a few runs w/ 1 swing, I'm taking 'em at -120. Not to mention this is not the real Bronson Arroyo we have been seeing. I don't know what this pecker head has been smoking lately but I don't believe he will keep it up.

    Reds are the better team

    Arroyo is the better pitcher

    Forget the media and the sensationalism, look at the numbers.

    Arroyo xERA 1.06
    Strasburg xERA 2.87

    Under 7 +110 is the play

    It has nothing to do w/ media. I watch the way this guy's ball moves and how hard and accurate he is. If u think Arroyo is the better pitcher u should stop donating to ur bookie right now

    I'm not entirely positive, but that may not be true.

    i can understand the comment that the reds are the better team but to say arroyo is the better pitcher is a little ridiculous. i get that espn has overhyped stasburg but he is a solid pitcher

    I don't know where you are seeing Arroyo's expected ERA at 1.06. I can't find the numbers anywhere, but there is no way that is possible.

    I think the Reds are a good play here. They are playing some very solid baseball over the past couple of months. Arroyo has been pitching well and they have been hitting the hell out of the ball. I know Strasburg is a good pitcher but you can not expect him to be stellar every game this early in his young career. Don't be suprised if the Reds light him up. Good Luck to All

    Strasburg is not good away, right?
    He is better home, but Washington can cover it tonight, I bet it, BoL

    I definitely like the over. The Reds have been hitting the ball and their bullpen has looked mediocre at best.

    Whoever said, "I wouldn't bet against the reds right now", I agree. I know everyone wants to jump on the Strasburgh train, but I think he gets touched up tonight.

    Don't think the rookie has ever given up more than one run. Tuff!

    Strasburg is the much better pitcher, but that is not the point. It is still the Nationals, so I am not sure taking them as a road favorite at any price can ever be considered "cheap".

    Agree, even if Stras keeps it down to 1-3 runs, Nats can still lose it... You have the Nats and a great pitcher thats an under play imo

    over looks good. even if stras holds it down, both teams can score enough in the later innings to cover the total.

    strausburg is dirt cheap at this price no question about it. problem here is that the other people with baseball uniforms on that play and coach with him are -400 favorites. bad mix.

    rolling with the reds at + money today. Nats as road chalk are never a good idea. Arroyo is not the better pitcher, but he might be for today.
