    2:20 est Rockies @ Cubs Over/Under?

    what do you like here

    under 8 juiced to the gills already and going to 7.5 already

    beautiful day here in chicago will be in 60's and sunny. Slight breeze blowing in 5-8 mph

    couple of #5 starters throwing in the daylight?

    over seems too easy

    go against the grain?

    The problem is that Hendricks is pretty good and the cubs bullpen is awesome. They could easily win this like a 6-1 type game. The cubs offense may have to carry the over but if you're just relying on that, you're better off taking the cubs RL

    Hey Arch, yeah I'm totally confused. Not sure why it isn't 8.5 with the over juiced. Not sure I can resist playing the over despite that warning sign.

    Cubs RL at only -120 also tasty.

    If I remember from last year, everybody used to tell me that day games in Chicago (Wrigley) the ball really carries well ??? I have never been there so ????

    I love the day time action but for once I'll lay off instead of do something I'm not sure about.

    Sigghhh wish we had some more to choose from

    You have two of the best run scoring teams in NL facing off with their worst starting pitchers and the total is 7.5 and you want to bet the under? You need to stop gambling.

    or maybe the people setting the line need to stop setting lines?

    I guess they gave us a gift.

    exactly.. stop trying to be sharp.. cant stand when people do this and then if the bet loses, they disappear, but if their bet wins, its "see!"

    it was the same shit last night. Line was 7 with 2 decen pitchers and game went 8-1 boom easy over. Either bet the over or dont bet. No need to take the under when cubs avg 7 RPG. I am taking Cubs o4.5.. Thats the best bet. Dont need to worry about rockies getting the bats going

    why in the world is this total 7.5?

    daytime at Wrigley (wind not blowing in so that's not a factor)

    and 2 horrible pitchers with 2 of the Majors hottest lineups ........ what.

    Hendricks is still a very good pitcher and the cubs bullpen is nearly untouchable

    You want to bet an over? Cubs homeline is 4.5. I think they've scored under 5 runs 1 time this year and it was against Greinke. They'll drop at least 6 in this game

    Hendricks is not a horrible pitcher. Just because he's the cubs #5 means nothing - he'll be around a 3.60 era pitcher this year


    the cubs 3rd and 4th best players are better than most teams #1 and #2s

    The OVER looks so easy in this one which has me leaning UNDER. Pass on total for me. Great value with Rocks.

    What are you talking about??? They have played 9 games and 7 went over 4.5 with 3 of those at home. You lost me on this one.

    yea very weird line movement but the books arent always right you guys... You guys act like EVERY single time this line movement happens, it goes the way of the movement. If betting were this easy, we would all be rich.
