Most Impressive Stat in Baseball Handicapping Right Now?

Sox - 1.5 pays at + 140. You would have to be crazy to think that doesn't win at least 50% of the time

Definitely can't make an argument - it's the longest current win streak by any active pitcher versus any team

As impressive as an Red Sox 22-6 mark since 2006 after consecutive games where Lester's whip was 1.5 or more. Still will not be on this game.

Lestr will get shelled for 5+

Good stuff

so... should we consider the over after opening at 9 and sitting at 8.5 as of now?

**Frank-King** · 06-05-12, 02:16 PM

Orioles are 2-8 in their last 10 games and are quickly fading down the standings

Sox are not a decent betting proposition anymore, just too eratic.

This certainly doesn't win 50% of the time. You might need to take a lesson in statistics, you're a fkn moron.

I didn't say the line would indicate that it wins 50% of the time. I said the sox will win the game 50% of the time - which is why there's tremendous value there

Oh wait, are you another one of these morons who thinks Vegas is a 100% efficient market and everything they say is 100% on point and exactly what's gonna happen in every game?

And Baltimore will win the other 50 percent of the time .. I don't see this tremendous value you speak of

Meh, Pitcher versus team stats are not very relevant unless they're current or at worst last season.

Betting to look at Pitcher versus Batters; do work.

No, that's not what you said idiot. Read what you said again. You said Sox -1.5 wins over 50% of the time.

I said the play wins at least 50% of the time, in my opinion at least. I didn't say that's the probability the line indicates. You retarded?
