    Cardinals backers get ready to pay your books. You are in for a rude awakening.
    The Dodgers have played like garbage for 2 months.
    Torre hasnt won anything in years.
    The Cards have the greatest starters ever.
    The Cards have Pujols.
    The Cards owned the Dodgers in the regular season.
    Everybody thinks the Dodgers have no gas left.
    The Cards dont need homefield.



    This translates into one thing right the cards will win easily right



    WRONG- Dodgers win the series in 4 games. Now go ahead and make your Cards series bets people.

    The best playoff hitter of all time plays for LA. The best manager of the last 25 years manages LA. Larussa and Duncan are postseason choke artists. I dont care if they won a few years ago. Larussa constantly finds ways to lose with great starting staffs. Remember those great A's staffs with Welch/ Stewart/Moore/Eck- they found ways to choke at the worst times. Only a bs world series win over the giants with all that talent.Good luck with your Cards bets cause I know most of you folks are on the Cards.


    Dodgers for the series +125- 10 units

      I agree, Dodgers win.
      We are going to see very few runs though.

              I've got money on the series too but why not double down with points?

              Why not make it as interesting and fun as possible.

                    You say "in 4", call the sweep though so seek out that, I'd be interested to know the return....lot greater than +125 for damn sure....

                    report back


                    with any progress.

                      Not only will the Cardinals not lose to the overrated Dodgers, but St. Louis will go on to be the 2009 World Series Champions!

                        not having home field will be tough, but I'd favor the Cards.

                                    Randy Wolf is overrated and not that good, lets be honest folks

                                    not to mention that Cardinals hitters crush left handed pitching, oops,

                                    Manny isn't the same manny

                                    managers are overrated

                                    Matt kemp, Adre Either, Clayton Kershaw are the scariest players the dodgers have - La's pitching is more a tribute to the 2 other offenses in their league (hello triple A San Fran lineup and triple A Padres lineup) than their actual pitching - Wolf blows, eod. had a 4.5 era last year in houston

                                    LA is the publics team, St Louis is where the real baseball is played

                                        baseball managers are very overrated

                                        unlike sports like football, the coach/manager means very little in baseball

                                        talk to anyone who plays or has played baseball, the quality of your manager makes a difference in maybe 10 games out of a 162 game season

                                        ie. the manager is an overrated position

                                        you could get an orangatang to coach the yankees or the red sox and they'd still be good, meanwhile you could have all the best baseball minds in the world coaching the pirates and they still would be bad

                                        unlike football, managers in baseball mean very little - the reason these teams win or lose year in and year out is because of the quality of their players, not their managers

                                          I just love how someone from LA, or someone who at least has LA love, started this thread. It might hold some water if it was started by someone without hometown ties, but I just can't see the dodgers winning the series here. I mean it could happen but the smart money is on STL.

                                              if the dodgers can score runs they will win. the dodgers will pitch better than the cards overall. carpenter loves to give up first inning runs. if the dodgers can get a few early wolf and the bullpen will hold it. if not the dodgers will lose 2-0 or somewhere around there.

                                                the cardinals dont pitch against a set of triple A lineups most of the year, and pitch in ballparks that are pitcher friendly like SD, SanFran, and Dodger Stadium

                                                wolf is not that good, anyone that thinks he's an "all-star" is an idiot, this guy has a career ERA over 4 and has a low K/9 rate - its called pitching in a pitchers' park

                                                get to know some common baseball facts and get your head out of your homer ass and look at some real numbers that arent inflated by a favorable park and set of bad lineups

                                                  Sharp posts from Ulver86. Current line is close to spot on IMO. Cardinals are rightfully favored and more likely to win the series.

                                                  Lakerboy, you got bad line though, closer to +140 available for LA series win now.

                                                        I am a Dodgers fan, thinking about taking the Cardinals to win the National, and maybe World Series good matchup against Yankees to be honest. Cardinals have some solid hitting and anyone's starting pitching

                                                          I love how most here are so sure the Dodgers will lose. We all know that when the whole board is one team what happens. Guys its a 5 game series with 3 in LA. Dont worry about who has what pitching and so on. Its about mistakes and clutch hits. The dodgers have been on cruise control for a long time(maybe a bad thing). The cards are a square bet.

                                                            The Dodgers have the best ERA in the league not because of great pitching but because you often don't need more than 3 runs to beat them!!! So once you get between 3 to 4 runs against the Dodgers, don't waste your energy trying to score more!

                                                              That sounds crazy but it's probably true.
