Travis Wood -196, REALLY?

[darkenergy]

With these kind of stats
All Starts ERA 6.82 WHIP 1.548
Home Starts ERA 9.22 WHIP 1.684
Last 3 Starts ERA 11.09 WHIP 2.156

Is he a really 196 pitcher, or line where is it because they got their butts whipped by a sorry ass_tros last night?
I think T. Wood as gas can as Rodriguez.

I'll take a shot at Houston +183, and Houston RL.

[terrors3]

I like it had happ last night like under too

[JMUplayer]

The Astros are just a horrible team offensively... can you name 2-3 of their starters?
They are +150 vs. anybody at least

[pattymayo]

Love the Astros again here. Why the F not. Like you said Travis Wood at -196? Why? Reds are a 3-7 home team, losers of 3 of 4, Astros coming in with a 3 game winning streak. Def worth a shot at +180

[pattymayo]

Also, T Wood fighting to save his spot in the rotation with Cueto and Bailey coming off the DL soon. But he's garbage and I think will choke under pressure.

[darkenergy]

I honestly can't name any of their quality starters for you.
I just think it simple like this, same division game, Houston on the 3 winning straight, their offense production aren't too terrible in the last couple games.
T.Wood's shows that he shouldn't be favorite to anyone regardless home or away. With a gas can like Wood, who know Houston might produce another 13 hits today.
I like my shot. Beside, nothing big on this play, 1x on ML, and .5 on RL.
If you are going to back Cin, I think you should wait to game time, number will drop when people start realized taking Cin is as risky as Houston.
Best of luck with your decision regardless which side you are on.

Both of these pitchers can get lit up. Took over 8 1/2. GL.

[wtt0315]

over is the play.

Brett Wallace, Hunter Pence, and Carlos Lee.

There is three, now give me points

[High3rEl3m3nt]

Yah...it's not hard to name three starting astros, but I understand the point you are trying to make. It might be worth passing on this game, as Rodriguez is untested as a starting pitcher this year, though we have been able to see some of his stuff from a relief standpoint. His ERA, HR's, and BBs in 9.0 innings pitched aren't all that impressive...though he's been able to log in a descent amount of K's in each of his last three appearances, which might be the most telling stat available. Rodriguez might be trying too hard with his stuff and could get burnt by a potentially lethal Reds offense. Carlos Lee is still out of the lineup, if anyone does not already know. I was hoping to play the Reds' team total, but it's at 5 runs...There's not a lot of value anywhere in this game...BOL if you're a gamblin man

astros are horrible on the road, reds are equally horrible.

[PaperTrail07]

Agree---I am a reds fan but -200 is getting out of control hahaha I mean my god..................................... ........................................ ........................maybe -145 TOPS

[dvelasq]

Sorry buddy only two count Carlos Lee is hurt. no points.

[KnowingNothing]

Hitting the overs, like the reasonings.

[leafs_ducks]

Saw the -196 and took my chance with the over 9 instead +109

Shows how much baseball you know. The Astros are 4th in offense in MLB with a Batting Average of .270 as a team. They also scored 132 Runs which is 7th in MLB.

[CHAZ]

Liking the over here

[og4667]

wood has been shit lately but I do know he is fighting to keep his spot in the rotation with Bailey and Cueto coming back off the DL and either Lecure, Wood, or Leake has to go, not sure if it makes any difference today but Wood does have good numbers vs the Astros.

Astro pitcher today will be limited to 80 pitches so then its up to the pen..at this price though the Astros are worth a shot.

[AL1322]

good with the astros as well at this price..wood sucks

[face]

astros +1.5 -130? reds -190 forget that.

[thebestthereis]

Take against Houston vs right handed starters only. Stros or pass.

[R23k]

Over seems obvious so I am taking Houston and Under

[kingofmonash]

go astros.....

[wtt0315]

nice play for you under and houston backers. i went over and my horrible streak continues

[Dukebluejms]

Agreed. Wood at that price is definitely a no play on the Reds, but that does not necessarily mean the Astros are the play. Cincy probably wins, but not worth the juice.

[JackHorner]

Lol. Lyon is just a joke. He's about to torch our Stro bets.

[G's pks]

nice play for you under and houston backers. i went over and my horrible streak continues

opps...never call a game over even in the 9th when you think it will make you look smart...look what happened...

[JackHorner]

And there it is. How the hell do you keep in a pitcher that walks the leadoff man, throws a wild pitch, gives up 3 singles and still don't pull him. Comical.

sounded good on paper...but you had an Astro manager trying to micro manage like he was in the world series changing pitchers like crazy...what a fool.... at least you hit(1-2) the Rl and just lost a little...

[wtt0315]

opps...never call a game over even in the 9th when you think it will make you look smart...look what happened...

i should do it more often that was my first win in 2 days hehe
if you see i was congratling them since i ws on cincy and the over
now 1-11 last 2 days hehe

[Rixsaw]

Did you guys really think the books were stupid enough to pay Asstro +180?

[G's pks]

And there it is. How the hell do you keep in a pitcher that walks the leadoff man, throws a wild pitch, gives up 3 singles and still don't pull him. Comical.

funny part was he kept pulling the pitchers that were doing good...what a goof!

[JackHorner]

Hahaha exactly! I guess have your other pitchers do well means you gotta make sure they're rested for the game tomorrow.

[G's pks]

ok champ keep it up... and I am sure you have the cinny pick posted before the game in a post somewhere... I did not play the game..but always love the funny comments...

[Not-A-Kid]

Who you have later wtt? Just fukkn with ya man. On another note Brandon Lyon is the most worthless POS on any major league staff. How the Stros staff can justify running him out there in the 9th is beyond me, fukkn morons deserve what they get. His ERA is 7.15 in 11+ innings and his BAA is .389 FFS. Basically, every single batter this idiot faces is Ted Williams in his prime.
