    I've got the Diamondbacks winning the World Series at +12000 and +13000.

    I'm worried about that one game.

    Might put a little on Colorado. Undecided right now.

                What else can they do? In my opinion, it is a big disadvantage to wait any more than an all star break kind of time frame for the players. Timing - edge - doesn't last very long.

                  goddamn those are some nice odds, I love the look of the dbacks but can you seriously picture Fernando Rodney shutting the door in the playoffs? I can’t

                    No, I hate that guy. I'm not sure why they don't close with Archie Bradley.

                    I don't really expect them to win it all, I'm just hoping to make a little money off of it. I just never know when the right time is to bet a little on the other side.

                      I wouldn’t start now it’s too early, and they will be dogs for every series so makes it expensive hedging if you start early

                        All I can say is that the Dodgers are rooting for the Rockies to win Big Time!

                          MINNESOTA TWINS

                          You absolutely cannot tell if they will score 2 or 8 runs......any + ML is a great value

                            I agree. The last six times the Dodgers met the Dbacks they had a record of 0-6. They want no part of the Dbacks. They're definitely rooting for Colorado.

                                  Are yanks biggest fav since wild card began? I may just not remember but don't recall any other wc line being over -200.

                                  Think I'm parlaying the favs, you probably right one ends up losing but I don't see it. Zona just playing so well, been saying since dodgers were on fire I thought dbags would beat them. like odds suggest twinks not really a playoff team, they traded their closer away cause they didn't even expect to be here!

                                        most years i like the new system of the two wild card teams, but in situations like this the old system was better. they both finished 6 games up, twins were only an 85 win team

                                        that said, i think twins win

                                          could have got them at the odds he did before the year

                                            The one game playoff is absurd it should be two out of three

                                                if you can't win on demand, you don't deserve to advance.

                                                  No, he bet the +12000 in March, I am guessing the +13000 not too much after.

                                                      I don't really expect them to win it all, I'm just hoping to make a little money off of it. I just never know when the right time is to bet a little on the other side.

                                                            Thanks buddy. Wasn't sure just couldn't remember one. Rangers always been that team capable of letting any garbage pitcher shut them down w their home run or bust approach. Do you recall how Yu pitched in that game?

                                                              Most complete team in the NL imo. Been saying they would bounce doyers since lad was on that sick run and everyone was crowning them... only real concern is that crooked hat wearing clown they have closing games, if they lose I think he be the reason.

                                                                after they beat the absolute dogshit out of my giants in Baltimore that year, I remember being convinced Baltimore was going to not only win that game but the playoff game against the pats that I skipped the spread and bet Baltimore ML the whole playoffs.

Those were the worst lined games I ever recall during a playoff run in my 20+ years doing this!!

Those were the worst lined games I ever recall during a playoff run in my 20+ years doing this!!

                                                                      I remember he pitched well but rangers couldn’t hit joe fukkin Saunders lol

                                                                      I think the o’s had to use all their best pitchers in the last few games of the season just to get in
