    But why have it go over if you can stop it. Best team still has the chance to win after the 1st 5

    Lol. Dunno if crazy or not but I’ll never buy into the fixed crap. If I did I wouldn’t bother betting.

    Pay attention to it more during big $ games. No ones going to remember the o/u 2 weeks from now. Easy $ for vegas and no one gets in trouble / obvious

    Milw has bunch of professional hitters that will take good abs scattered all thru lineup, that what you want in the playoffs imo.

    I just don’t buy it,, too much money in major sports to risk any kind of fix. Plus baseball is so freaking random you could try to fix it all you want and could easily still go the other way.., biggest factor is the amount of money risked on this total tonight is peanuts compared to every nfl game on Sunday, I doubt they care.

    I still think it going over but not gonna lie, the low pitch counts starting to worry me. Apparently Freeland is a monster on short rest! Lol. Told ya nobody knew wtf he was gonna pitch like, he probably surprised!! I just need these pens to come in before the 8th!!

    I've noticed over the years big games like these typically do go UNDER.. It probably does trend...

    Definitely. I just thought traditionally wild card games fly over and unders trend back in after first few weeks. Twins (Santana) vs Yanks (Severino) o/u 7 in the WC last year.. but Santana did get ripped.. neither pitcher should get rippe tonighT

    I said bunch of times yesterday should probably wait and grab over live after both these starters shine for 3-4 innings., only thing that has changed is the fact both have incredibly low pitch counts and pens might not even have a chance to get blown up.

    Lester started shaky, but cranking now. Cubs gotta figure out how to score a damn run though.

    Lot of game left though. Freeland pitching his ass off.. I'm impressed.. Playoff worthy if the Rockies advance.. Take note so far...

    That's the thing. They aren't risking anything. They're creating better endings, more drama and more viewers. I've been thinking this for years

    And the longer these guys go the more times they are free outs as hitters.

    Both teams have some pop on the bench as pinch hitters.

    Murphy, Contreras, Bote coming up in the 5th. Murphy needs to find a gap to get things going.

    Cubs offense been like this all year, hit and miss. Hoping they show up seeing Freeland for 2nd and 3rd time now.

    speak 4 yourself brother. Said in another thread 3 days don't hurt guys that rely on fastballs. Only junk pitchers. Need 2 more innings then it is bullpen time.

    Yeah, the weirdest stat is they had the 2nd most 0 or 1 run outputs, 2nd only to Balt. And yet overall offense near the top. When you're hot you're hot, when y're cold you're cold.

    Yep, they either score 10 or not shit. Seems like they play very few games where they score around their average. Kinda like me and bowling, bout a 190 average but I rarely bowl 190s, I either have a 3 game total well above 600 or barely 500. lol.

    This Cubs offense is pathetic.

    Freeland might pitch a complete game shutout with under 80 pitches.

    Isn't he on three days rest? You'd think they'd be working the count.

    Can’t believe we not even gonna get a crack at these damn pens. That was whole basis of my bet, really didn’t consider fact both these starters might go 8+ innings! Whoops. Lol.

    Cubs will have a decision with Lester in the bottom of the 6th due up first. If he cruises, it will be tough to pull him, but they need to get some runners on soon.

    I know right!!! Both these offenses making pitchers lives way too easy, rox forced 20 pitches out of Lester in the 1st and not sure he has had a 15 pitch inning since!!! You would think both could work counts a little and maybe foul a few balls off for Christ sakes!!

    Freeland on cruise control though 5.

    And Lester leads off the 6th so that's big.
