Early look at Friday baseball

[RangeFinder]

Texas (Perez) -114 This is probably an early number to grab. Colon is washed up and cannot see him getting over 5 innings. Overnight action will probably send this price higher.

Detroit (Verlander) +118 Willing to give him a shot at pitching a big one here, Orioles not exactly world beaters and I'll side with the dog. Going to let the betting tell the tale here.

Colon is terrible
Most of minor-league pitchers are better than him I don't know why he's wasting a spot for a young kid

Interested to see where Verlander's head is at now that his starts aren't all job interviews. The psychological factor here fascinates me for some reason.

Good observation. I think this is a situation where line watching will tell us a lot.

I agree. If it stays around here or better, definitely worth a shot tho.

On Tigers as well

Not a lot of movement yet, but still early. I don't think these two games are going to see a lot of volume so I went ahead a played both.

Best of luck for those that do.

Texas must really be bad to not be favored -125

det/bal under 9

Well, the line has moved against me in both games. Concerned more with Detroit than I am Texas. That's a pretty hefty move on Baltimore.

[jjgold]

I guess in the Minnesota game they figure they'll just beat them in a shoot out and their home

[RangeFinder]

Early lead helps Verlander. Now he needs to hit location, change his speeds.

That didn't last long
