    This logic might be considered 'square thinking', but..........

    Why wouldn't one blindly bet the 'over' every game the Texas Rangers play?

    That team pretty much has no outs and can rake like no team I've seen in years.

    You can't pitch around Hamilton because you still have to face Beltre and Young, Kinsler is a scary lead off hitter that provides both speed and pop, if he gets on he can steal second, or play a little hit and run with Andrus, who by the way is only hitting .328 himself.

    Then there's Josh, who has pretty much the perfect swing and is so locked in right now.
    Like I said, if you want to pitch around him, Beltre can take any pitcher deep, and Young can slap you silly too.

    Even Nelson Cruz with all his strike outs you have to be careful with, Napoli can hit, Moreland too.

    Even if Texas's starter pitches lights out, their line up can cover an 'over by themselves.

    I suppose Las Vegas will have to over inflate the Texas Ranger game totals going forward, because I can't be the only one thinking like this.

    yeah but 11 of those overs the rangers have won

    so parlaying texas w/ over is 11-24 not bad and up units

    more importantly though texas/over has won 5 TIMES OUT OF THE LAST 7 GAMES!! and over has hit 6 of the last 7

    IMO this should only help keep some value in the totals for the Rangers.

    yeah it's pretty simple, if you're playing the over then parlay with texas
    14 of their games have gone over and texas has won 11 of those

    if the game is going over, it's because of texas' offense

    st louis in the nl is on a big run on the overs. pirates unders for the year are 23-8-3, i dont think youll find a bigger split then that at this point for any team.

    "IF WIN" bet could work

    If you place a small wager on the 1st "If win" (over) and the second win on Texas ML for a much larger bet doesn't that make for a better chance of making more money.

    If the over dumps then the bet dies, however if the over hits the chance Texas wins is fairly good -BINGO you make some nice money at minimum risk.

    Craig is the hottest hitter in the majors right now not named Hamilton.
