New York Yankees +225 To Win World Series...

Sforz · 09-20-09, 04:33 AM

book it.

Shortstop · 09-20-09, 04:53 AM

I can't see this line getting any higher. I'm sending it in now.

Let's Go Yankees!

It's Phillies world series to lose. Yankee pitching will be murdered by Philly bats and they are pitching outstanding.

JBC77 · 09-20-09, 08:55 AM

I like that bet. For dog money, it really has a fair chance of cashing. Seems to be a worthy investment.

CashMoney · 09-20-09, 09:09 AM

As a die hard Yanks fans I of course think they will win it all every year but they have a great shot this year. Of course the only thing that worries me is the Divisional Series. Anything can happen in a 5 game series.

jjgold · 09-20-09, 09:54 AM

Yanks do not have pitching to win it all

1 solid starter and the rest are erratic and hit or miss

lakerboy · 09-20-09, 09:56 AM

yanks bats will go cold in the playoffs and dont forget they have that jinx afag

Rich Boy · 09-20-09, 11:03 AM

Aroid will blow it, Burnett will blow it

InTheHole · 09-20-09, 11:05 AM

Yes! However can't tie up the $$$ hat long though. Sat all last season with 20 units of futures....never again

Shortstop · 09-22-09, 05:37 AM

Can't wait to see the Yankees playing in the World Series in October!

lakerboy · 09-22-09, 09:55 AM

Shorty it aint happening. The yanks won't beat anaheim or Boston

Immortality · 09-22-09, 10:07 AM

I like the National League to take it this year. I like either Philadelphia or St. Louis to win it all.

Good luck with your play though shorty

yisman · 09-22-09, 12:04 PM

I don't like this bet, Shorty.

Sabathia consistently chokes in October, and Joba and Burnett have been awful.

that leaves Pettitte. One guy who can be counted on for decent starts.

They have the best lineup and probably the best bullpen, but I would not bet on a team at +225 with that kind of starting pitching.

jjgold · 09-22-09, 12:14 PM

I say yanks Lose in 1st series

pitching is really breaking down

konck · 09-22-09, 12:29 PM

Thats a bad price youll do better betting each series...The yanks havent even won the Div yet 11 to go 5 up 2 more with LAA 3 with Bosux I think when the Yanks open at home vs Bosux friday if Horsebathia doesnt win the wont win the Div.
I bet the Yanks in June to win the Div from +195 to +135 the Yankee pitchers are fading quickly it would be a mistake to put Joba in the pen. With 11 games left Horsebathia only pitches 2 more times.

konck · 09-22-09, 12:31 PM

Bosux still have 2 games in hand on the yanks plus the have 3 left with KC 4 left with Clev everything favors a Bosux rally

DrStale · 09-22-09, 12:36 PM

got it at +315 a few weeks ago. Die hard Yankee hater but gotta go with value when I see it.

nah, blowing a 6 run lead twice last night was the death knell for Boston. They had to have that game last night.

Well the only team that has any consistent pitching is St Louis...

So i am taking it you like their chances???

LVHerbie · 09-22-09, 04:15 PM

Not arguing the side but you might get a better price if you parlayed your bets for them to win each individual series in the playoffs...

yisman · 09-22-09, 04:47 PM

nah, you can't parlay. Just bet each series price. If that wins, bet the next one. Should do better than +225.

charitableman · 09-22-09, 05:14 PM

at some point during the playoffs you will get better value than +225- trust me. It always happens to every team. There is some point during the playoffs where they struggle-thats when you have to man up and bet them. But if they are down 0-1 or even 0-2 in a series, then its payday....but i would advise you to wait, and try to get a better price. I dont see the yankees cruising , but i can see them winning

Shortstop · 09-23-09, 12:45 AM

A lot of love for the NL here. I'm not buying it.

Dodgers and Yankees is best case scenario, with Yankees winning in 6.

yisman · 09-23-09, 01:07 AM

they just about locked up HFA throughout the AL playoffs tonight.

I wouldn't bet at -200 or greater, but I would bet against the Yankees winning the WS.

Shortstop · 09-23-09, 02:01 AM

Yes, I just saw that they clinched a playoff berth tonight.

What I meant is just keep rebetting your stake and profit after each series not through a traditional parlay...

I knew what you meant Herbie.

yep, and it would be the equivalent of a better than +225 bet if the Yankees go all the way.

Shortstop · 09-24-09, 02:56 AM

It was up to +245 for a majority of the day, now it's back down to +225.

Ulver86 · 09-24-09, 03:01 AM

NL blows, sorry, the Yanks, BoSox, or Angels are winning it all

too many holes in the NL teams, you think Brad Lidge is going to save a game in the playoffs you're ****ing nuts

MJFtheGenius · 09-24-09, 11:13 PM

Yankees baseball baby

TWG1992 · 09-24-09, 11:49 PM

Money is on the Cardinals (I know, I know. Bias, blah blah. But not really). The Cardinals 1-2-3 punch since July has something insane, like a .800 win % when they pitch (Carpenter, Wainwright, Piniero). They have a great offense, especially with the most dangerous 1-2 offensive combo in the MLB with Pujols & Holliday. The Cardinals have the best record since acquiring Holliday before the deadline. On top of that, we have one of the best bullpens in the MLB, minus the fact that Franklin has been struggling a bit as of late, but it's nowhere near as bad as Lidge. At the very worst, I see them losing to the ANGELS in the WS.

hockey216 · 09-25-09, 01:38 AM

i wouldnt bet a future. There are too many evenly matched quality teams in the playoffs this year. Who knows what'll happen. Yankees look sharp but there's no value for a bet like this with so many good opponents.
