Can you take the Yankees 7/23?

No -- you're paying a tax on their losing streak.

Under normal circumstances, they'd be about -135/-140 in this spot. No value whatsoever at -155 on up as far as I'm concerned.

I'm wondering about the people on a Yankees chase. With the chalk MLs, they must be in quite a hole.

Yankees and Rangers buried the world today.

Decent reasoning No Coin. I'm going to avoid the game most likely but I just can't see Seattle a team who averages 3 or less runs a game coming off a cross country flight is going to dominate the Yankees who are only going slightly up coast. But then again maybe they think their nearly 7 game lead is enough cushion that their coasting till they get back to NY.

I'm thankfully tapped out not because of the Yankme's. I'm not going to reload either, not till NFL. I'm not one of those guys who thinks NFL is easier to cap, I'm just more familiar with trends for NFL teams. I know the game better.

Totally agreed with you on this, if over -150 then lay them off.
