If houston had home field...thinking series houston 140 ?? What about yanks vs minn...yanks 165??

[nyplayer33]

Anybody

[2daBank]

I would have to do more work than I’m willing to do right now to give you a real accurate number (what I would make it anyways) but off top of my head I think your -140/-150 seems pretty reasonable. Anything less and pretty sure I’d pound Stros!!

[cincinnatikid513]

-200 hou

[nyplayer33]

200 seems quite high

[nyplayer33]

Never know with baseball....athletics lost 15 to xero at houston, then oak won 3 in a row at houston.

[cincinnatikid513]

200 seems quite high

just like houston's starting pitching yanks don't really have that much pitching

[nyplayer33]

Ok.

I think Houston -140 is close.
Yanks/Twins about -170 NYY

[stevenash]

-200 hou

No.
-150 Max, more like -140
If I’m offered +170 or more on NY in a Houston series I’m all over NYY

[2daBank]

No.
-150 Max, more like -140

I don’t think yanks beat them but I agree anything close to 2 to 1 and I’d have to play yanks.

[lakerboy]

No home field for the Yanks.

I say Yanks +165 minimum

[2daBank]

Home field is so overrated in baseball and hockey playoffs imo.

Yanks HF advantage is more to do with park dimensions than screaming fans tho.

i might be wrong so don't quote me on this but last time yanks houston played in the playoffs the home team won every game

You might be right, actually sounds right, but one series doesn’t change my opinion/overall feelings on home field being overrated.

I think it the most overrated in hockey playoffs, mlb a close second, nfl and nba it tends to hold more meaning imo.

That said there certainly teams it matters more for, off top of my head cubs are a great example, those bums been horrid on the road all season, had they got into the playoffs HF woulda been much more meaningful.

I’ll also say (as I touched on previously) some teams fields dimensions or other factors give a edge. I’m more referring to home crowds being insignificant. Obviously Rockies and zona hold unique advantages because of altitude/air. Teams who build their roster based off how their parks play give themselves a HF adv most don’t enjoy.

Hou -220/180

[pavyracer]

Houston -260

[dawg58kahn]

yanks at over 150 is a steal

[2daBank]

yanks at over 150 is a steal

So to be clear you are on yanks vs Stros? Just making sure. Makes it easy for everyone.

[dawg58kahn]

it depends on the line fish lmao...like everything else...betting 101 dawg

[Chili_Powder]

Guessing Houston -160 at minimum

[nyplayer33]

Pitcher has huge edge because they throw wicked fast...plus on top of hitter. Home field matters little

[2daBank]

You don’t have the 1st clue about gambling bitch boy.

[jjgold]

Houston -180

Pitching too good

[clockwise1965]

My guess would be Astros -145

[nyplayer33]

Odds to win world series are astros plus 200 and yanks plus 375...no way series line is above 160...no way

[dawg58kahn]

You don’t have the 1st clue about gambling bitch boy.

come over dawg....i show ya

[krk1030]

-200 would be nuts

Paxton and Severino can match up with anybody and the Yankees have the far better bullpen.

Teams are so even.

[bucket2233]

My guess is Hou -140, although personally I think Hou -300 or better is a good bet based on the poor performance of teams built similarly to how the Yankees are currently built - lineups reliant on HRs and that strikeout a lot have historically underachieved in October.

[ThaWoj]

Fwiw stros were +100 to win the AL and nyy were +220 earlier today on nitrogen..twins were +625

[nyplayer33]

However....how did braves with 3 hall of famers lose 8 in a row vs yankees in playoffs. Braves up 2. 0. And lose 4 straight then yankees swept them couple years later. If they play each other..lots of fun

I think players just get used to certain fields and pitchers especially feel more comfortable on their home mound

I don’t think the numbers really support it. They def don’t in hockey and I’m pretty sure baseball right behind them in playoff Hf not meaning a whole lot. I do think goofy places like coors or Bronx w retarded short porch might add little something but in general I think prices often times reflect a advantage that not really there. That why you will so often see me chase the road teams all series.

No away pitchers in LA get scared when they look up and see a sea of blue 4 decks behind home plate
