    Baltimore seems like a very easy early game today

    I think it's a 1:05 Eastern standard time start

    Solid pitcher against the battered up Boston team

    If you want to get rid greedy two team parlay with the 4 o'clock game and the Washington nationals

    Stroudsburg is pitching very well

    this is moronic at its best. Did you happen to do any real analysis? Look at Strasburgs numbers against Atlanta. They arent great.

    I'd never bet Boston because they've been a bankroll burner all year long, but don't you think it's odd you're getting a guy who's 14-4 for a team that's 85-59 against a guy who's 1-8 for a team that's 63-82 at -130? I wouldn't touch Baltimore with a 100-foot pole today.

    No coin... I been burnt by boston all season long too...have not bet them since they gave up 5 runs in the ninth to Seattle awhile back but my gut is feeling this play!

    Taking Boston 1st five innings +120 , Also auto playing braves and over vs strasburg this has been money this season. 6-0 in 3 games to be exact but Strasburg pitching 4 good games in last 5 worries me just a little.

    Normally I would say the line is fishy, but look at this entire series. Free money for Baltimore across the board.

    Given it's a day game and given how well the public has done in general with favorites so far in September (very odd compared to the usual), I wouldn't go to the well again with the O's today. Be content with the two-game ATM Balty has been in this series and just pass on this one if you're leaning Orioles. You're asking for it if you take them again.

    There are plenty of statistical reasons to like Boston from that perspective, if you like to put money on heartless, gutless, disinterested, corpse-like teams.

    it's not a must win game for the orioles anyway. they pretty much have division locked and I doubt they can take first place overall. Buck will have the guys ready though.

    I'm just saying that all of Red Sox in the lineup who have seen Chen more than a couple of times had great success and his day/night split is awful.

    Boston couldn't be worse ATS if they were the Black Sox themselves.

    At 14-4, Chen's record is an inflated joke.

    -130 on the road is a pretty standard line for this scenario. This is why baseball is one of the easiest sports to beat. The bookies are allowing home field advantage to factor too much into the line here.

    perhaps the Orioles get complacent here and take the foot off the gas pedal bc they already got the AL east locked up? its possible... you see it all the time. Teams with big leads tend to lose momentum heading into the playoffs.

    You contribute nothing to this discussion or the board in general.

    He is a product of a home run hitting team. Much like 2011 (I think) Phil Hughes. I can't wait for playoffs so I can fade the fukk out of these shitters.

    But then you have Harang pitching for Atlanta...this guy is a dog! He tires out at the end of the season. I'm not saying this one's easy, but if I'm leaning, I'm leaning toward Stausburg, who has pitched well since his last loss to the Braves, at home vs Harang who has not been pitching well because I believe he's running out of gas. NATS -1/2 1st 5 innings looks like a solid play here.

    Public seems to be big on Baltimore, but it doesn't seem like the line moves are matching up. Maybe the books know something??

    Public hammered Balty in Games 1 and 2 of this series, there was a ton of "RLM," yet the O's rolled in both games.

    Normally I would take any team trying to avoid a sweep. But it makes no sense to back a team that has flown south for the winter. As always, the best play is no play.

    Careful Harang has dominated the Nats hitters. The real value in this is game is on ATL and/or the +1.5. Just depends if you wanna gamble or not

    Baltimore has the better pitcher/bull pen...if Baltimore has a significant amount of players with higher OBP's than Boston's line up, Baltimore is the play. -130 is fair for an away pitcher at Fenway under these circumstances..definitely shouldn't be higher.

    Not to mention Pedroia is out
