First Post Season Play: Indians/Jays over 8

[unde0087]

4 straight unders to start this series and I believe we see the bats come out this time around. I got this last night as I anticipated the line moving to 8.5. Early bird gets the worm, although obviously think we see at least 9 runs scored.

Estrada vs Merritt

Merritt a rookie vs Jays lineup and a used up bullpen not a good combo On the other side we have Estrada, who pitched well the first time around but the Indians lineup just saw the guy for a complete game a few days ago. They should be able to get some good at bats in as well.





Lakerboy, here it is pal

tailing small

[sportsfan9698]

I think you are on to something here... but for a different reason... watch for the unearned runs with a weaker defense for Toronto

[PhattDaddy204]

I'm on it my man.

BOL

[unde0087]

[Otters27]

ended up taking over 4.5 -700. I hope you are right as I was not going to make the bet until I read this post. need Jays to get about 5 runs for over 8

[RollinDo]

Guys - why didn't you go Under 10 for like -170?

Trend in this series is Under and until you see otherwise, why play the Over? I don't see anyone scoring more than 4 - 5 max...if the rook comes undone, the BP will likely hold Jays.

[Otters27]

guys need to get the bat off of the shoulder

Settle down otters, you act like you went all in. It's the 3rd inning

No kidding - your Over 4.5 should hit fairly easily...the total heading for 7-9 range.

A piece of advice Otters - don't tail someone unless you first believe in it before you read a pick...and buying down to 4.5 leads me to believe you don't really believe in it or you'd only go down to 7 or 8.

I like this play. I took this in a contest. GOOD luck pal

[Otters27]

I still think it hits. I did go all in actually. that is why I bought it down. risk 402 to win 57. I want Underwood to win also though

[unde0087]

Otters, have some faith, I don't bet to lose my man

[unde0087]

You could anticipate a slow start for Jays, they have never seen the guy before, now they have all seen him

[Otters27]

ump has tight zone ****** encarnacion into a dp

[unde0087]

ump has tight zone

Tight zone, you mean wide zone, we got screwed there, should have been 2 man on 1 out

[Otters27]

that is what I meant wide zone. That call could have been the death of this

[unde0087]

Well otters, now Jays are seeing the same bullpen they have seen for the last 4 games and they have pitched a lot of innings. No more suprises, it's all up to these bums to make something happen

[unde0087]

You are way to negative guy

[unde0087]

Wow Pillar, 2 fastballs right down the middle and he can't put it in play what fukin loser

[vegasridah]

the over did look like the play pre game. Wont go over though unfortunately.

[Otters27]

need Cle to score 6

[teaserpleaser]

What's the love total at? 5? 5.5?

[RollinDo]

need Cle to score 6

When I do the math for your pick, I get 5.

[teaserpleaser]

Live total wtf spell check ^^

[unde0087]

Wow, is there a pitch that isn't a strike with this ump. That's the 3rd guy that should have walked in the last 2 innings that he punched out and the pitches keep getting more and more wide of the plate. This guy must have a dinner date.

[RollinDo]

Was scratching my head with your post for 1st 5 seconds.
Thought it was some tennis jargon mixed with mlb.

So I take it you didn't look into the HP ump?

[unde0087]

So I take it you didn't look into the HP ump?

No, sorry didn't anticipate a professional ump calling 50% of the balls strikes and making hitters swing at everything in fear of being punched out on a pitch 5 inches off the plate

[unde0087]

Case and point, that at bat. 5 straight balls not even close so the guy has to swing and grounds out because he had no choice, worst umpiring I have ever seen

Got'cha - too bad an ump has so much swing...much more than the Jays bats!

[unde0087]

Yep, this is a self destruction. Jays already bitching about being screwed on calls coming in and it was a perfect fire storm with this ump.

These umps have been on the tribe all series.
