      yeah Marlins are @ +130 on WSEX so that would be my play

      The Dodgers (a poor offensive team to begin with) are facing a highly regarded prospect (whom they've never faced).

      Coupled with the Marlins offense and the price, it's a go for a play on the Fish.

            I'm big on the OVER in this game. Both pitchers have been much worse than their results show recently. I predict a lot of walks.

              I'd like to hear more on this.


              Have you been following Volstad closely in the minors? Not being sarcastic, I'm just asking.

              In his only 2 major league innings he has pitched 2 scoreless.

                  my feedback is that this is the marlins 9th road game in a row of an 11 game road trip .. no days off .
                  playing on the other side of the usa
                  long long way from home .. sleeping in strange hotel room beds and eating hotel food , anxious to get back home .. 4 - 4 road trip about to go to 4 - 5 i hope .
                  maybe some spiked chicken wings !

                      He gave up 2 walks and 2 hits in two innings. This isn't the minors, and he has shown some location problems when he is off in the minors.

                      Stults gives up a lot of gopher balls, and against a good hitting team like the Marlins......

                      Well, like I said I really like the OVER.

                                I'm going to respectfully say that anyone who thinks Volstad sucks just doesn't know enough about him.

                                He's clearly the Marlins top pitching prospect and the Marlins are known for grooming some serious studs in their farm system.

                                Someone please show me concrete evidence that Volstad sucks.

                                kthanksbye

                                    i know nothing about volstad. i was talking shit
                                    never seen him pitch
                                    but i bet he allows at least 4, that would be my guess

                                    that said, the value is on fla tonite. they are as good as lad and maybe better. plus stults shoulD NEVER EVER be laying -140
                                    ever

                                        By no means does Volstad suck. In fact, I believe he will very good. But I don't think he is ready to show his best stuff yet. His best pitch is his 12 to 6 curve ball. He just occasionally has trouble locating his fastball, which equals walks.

                                          Exactly. Stultz at -140 is obnoxious. Which makes Florida at +130 a sound play.

                                            the spiked chicken wings might catch up to them by the 7th inn ..

                                            odds are now that the dodgers lose looking at the #s now that the phils game is over ..
                                            the nl fav/dog count will hit at 5 - 3 favs way with a pads win and lad loss

                                            nl fav losers were brew , astros , (dodgers)
                                            if both home nl favs win late then it will be a fri night nl fav domination result of 6 - 2

                                            odds are always better that it finishes at 5 - 3 than 6 - 2 .
                                            get up !

                                              I figured there to be no way in hell, that after 3 runs in first 3 batters, that this first five would come through, but Stults settled down, and Volstad was an absolute stud. 3-0 after 5

                                                  Hats off to Volsted. Burned me as bad as he was burning the Dodgers. I was wrong on this one.

                                                    Can't believe the under hit after those back-to-back jacks

                                                      The Dodgers (a poor offensive team to begin with) are facing a highly regarded prospect (whom they've never faced).

                                                      Coupled with the Marlins offense and the price, it's a go for a play on the Fish.


                                                      This game had "TAKE THE MARLINS" written all over it.


                                                      I'd fade them today against Kuroda though.
