OH THE HUMANITY ! (Matt Harvey makes his fourth start this afternoon)

[stevenash]

This is an extension of my Harvey thread from earlier this week.

I can't believe the Royals are sending out Matt Harvey again today.

Oh the humanity! Hide the women and children, Matt Harvey is on the mound again.
What? Ray Charles isn't available to pitch?

In case you missed his last start, this is what Cleveland did to Harvey earlier this week,

He did pitch 2/3 of an inning of relief on the third and gave up two more hits.

There's no White Sox hitters props posted yet.
(Probably because the Indians props from the last start killed the books)


Shame on me for making fun of poor Mr. Harvey but I can't help myself.

Me?
I cashed the over 9.5 on the last Harvey start.
I'm thinking -140 White Sox on the run line but don't like laying 7:5 (reduced juice)
Over 10.5 should cash as the Royals can hit some but 11 total runs to cash is high too, may have to pass on this clusterfuck of a game.

I'm considering using a White Sox stack in DFS at Fan Duel and DraftKing but I have the feeling so is everybody else that plays DFS.

Ya kinda wondering why KC wasting a chance to get fresh arms some MLB starts here in a season where they're going nowhere.

Harvey has 0 trade value at this point, might as well put him on waivers

We know what to do!

[stevenash]

We know what to do!

Yes we do, now the bad news, the books have made all the adjustments, you want to fade Harvey? (and who doesn't) you have to pay the juice through the nose and the ass.

I know bad #'s 12 ER in just 7 innings !.............but I may bet KC..Keuchel is a contact pitcher with a high GO/AO ratio @ 2.00 +.....and the wind is blowing out to left @ 20 mph.............

Yeah, I saw the winds gusting to 30 MPH and out, and KC can hit some.
Over 10.5 is the way to go here, but that's a tough total, you need (well duh) 11 total runs to cash and this isn't Coors.

I got a small 20 dollar bet on the over here.
I'm trying to work up the nerve to try KC at juicy +220, and they are my favorite team but how can you back Harvey though?
But if I try KC at +220 I'm betting on Soler and Dozier and Whit and Mondesi, NOT Matt Harvey.

i cannot bet harvey. i like the over. twins maybe if i get -190 ML.
