    Both teams suck but I don't see how you can justify Cincy as a -170 favorite. Phillies +155 look like the play if anything here.

    Maybe it's because Phillies haven't been a road favorite against anyone the last 2 years.

      I never said they should be favored. Read before commenting.

        Phillies were hot this spring, I say go with the hot hand. +155 it is! I also like Seattle with King Felix pitching +115. Cole Hamels was average at best during his early season games with the Phillies, he didn't get going till the warmer weather set in.

                  Phillies may not score but the Reds at -170 is a joke.

                        The reds are a -170 over NOBODY....the play is the dog...does it cash...well see....pretty shitty cold day but I still see Philly getting over3 runs...had to guess I'd say 6-4 reds....the Cuban does not like the cold and its a lot to ask for him to just cruise today.....he gives up atleast 2-3 before he is pulled IMO...

                          These 2 pitchers ERA combined last year is 8.80
                          Sure it's cold , they blow
                          I bet over
                          But these 2 on Opening Day , says it all for the season ahead for these clubs .

                            The reason it's at -170 is Iglesias was pretty good at home last season. I bet against him because of his shitty ERA but he threw a few gems at home. Hes a shit pitcher on the road, Drew Hutchinson problem.

                                I think the Phillies are going to be underrated this year

                                    To combine ERAs, you don't just add them up. It's misleading...

                                        The Reds are a completely diff offense when Mesoraco is in the lineup and Inglesias is their best young pitcher but I wasn't that happy with -148 yesterday.....unplayable at -165 or -170 imo.

                                        On Cubs Over 6.5 for twice as much

                                          You're correct
                                          The intent is they both average giving up 4+ per last year I like my chances with the Over .

                                                Outside of the Cosart, the Reds are being no hit. By Hellickson. Largest crowd in stadium history. They thought things were bad when Schott ran the team.
