    I'll be out of town on Friday and Saturday

    Won't have any access to the Internet (roughing it), so I'm placing my Friday bets now and I'll (gulp) take Saturday off:

    CIN -140 (I love Cueto and the Reds here. His stuff has been filthy lately, and something's not quite right with Atlanta at the moment)
    NYM -140 (Tough banking on Pelfrey, but he finally settled down in his last game and Arizona is Arizona. Remember, too, that the last time these two squared off just 11 days ago, the D'Bags routed Pelfrey and the Mets and Kennedy pitched a gem. Now the Mets are -140 in the rematch? Line says it all)
    TB +100 (Public's going to be all over the Yanks here at the short number. I think Hughes gets hit hard in this one, and Davis has caught his second wind. Small play here only, though, because the NYY offense, as we all know, is a ticking time bomb)

    I also like the MIL/HOU over 8 (though why is that number so low?) and the CHC/COL over 9, but I won't play them because totals are the debil.

    BTW, I get the whole trendy appeal with taking Oakland on Friday -- I really do. It appears on the surface that Vegas is suckering people into taking the White Sox at + money, but Hudson has had control issues and really hasn't proven he is big-league worthy yet, so I don't think the line is that far off (though I'd say it should be about -115 for CHW). When you factor in the unknown surrounding Anderson's return, though, there are simply too many variables for my taste. That's just me.

    GL to everyone on the board, and I'll see you Sunday! Not sure if I can stand being away for that long.

    Now ask yourself this:

    "Why am I leaving town"?

    "Why was I born"?

    "Why this, why that"?

    Were being setup, they are after us, blah blah blah

    Ok I went off course there.

    Where are you seeing Cueto at -140? Its -127

    Pelfrey wraps himself around my dick.

    Agree that looks like a bad line for Cueto, but I understand you can't wait for it to drop. Wish you the best of luck with these and, more importantly, a nice vaca.

    It is a horrible line, but what can you do? It's been moving up all night.

    Arizona was -122 when these two pitchers teams squared off at the BOB on July 19. The Mets were routed, 13-2.

    Now, in the rematch, the Mets are -140 and rising?

    Have a good vacation man!

    I DO think A-ROD will hit his HR here. Wild call, but I think he hits it this game. I see Hughes gettin lit up within the first 5 innings.

    REDS WITH HOT BATS!

    I saw it.

    I'll tell you the same thing I told paco: I'd rather bet on a fvcking Triple-A game than this one. These teams are both beyond horrible.

    Do I think Baltimore's better? Yes. Do I think Arrieta's been pretty decent on the road, and that the Royals are in a horrific slump and just dumped their leadoff hitter? Yes. Do I think this could look great for 6-7 innings, only to have some awful pitcher like Hendrickson come in and blow it for you? Yes.

    If you want to take the O's, be my guest buddy. It "should" hit. But when these two teams get together, better bring your alcohol, drugs and circus music.

    The guy displays all of the characteristics of a paranoid schizophrenic.

    He also doesn't really seem to possess the ability to learn. He says the same things over and over and over again.

    Even after hes been proved wrong.

    It's really hard for me to bet on the Mets the way they played against AZ this season and the way Pelfrey is pitching.

    Mets are winning today, but fade them tomorrow. I know this team too well, unfortunately!

    You don't think it's odd, LB, that the line is where it is given what happened just 11 days ago in the desert? That's a massive line swing, given the 13-2 D'Bags win.

    Dropping TB. Just not sure about that one anymore, and it's not worth the hassle.

    Adding:
    HOU -110
    COL -120
    LAA -110
