    -200 at home and lose to Washington, Losing 13-1 today. Lou Pinella might as well not show up anymore, these guys need a priest, not a manager.

                  very overrated, but on paper i feel like the team should have success. i dont see how they could ever be more than -150 favorite though...

                        Pinellas has always been one of the bottom 5 coaches in the league his whole career

                        He needs to be fired, he is a loser

                        They spent tons of money and go nowhere

                          how are the cubs going to win 91 games?
                          they would have to go 81-58 with a mediocre team.

                          if i had 1000 points to bet archie i would do brock one better and say no more than 82 wins.

                          there is really no match for the cardinals in the nl central this year, they are already pulling away - the brewers have no pitching and the cubs' decent players are way past their prime for the most part.

                            Cubs roster is a disaster. At least they have Colvin to build around in the outfield.

                              Here we go again, Cubs -160 LOL This has to be a joke, this team fukking sucks. If you bet them -160 you have no clue, i'm not saying Arizona is the play, but this line should be pick em, maybe -115 or so...-160 should be reserved for teams that know how to win, and this one doesn't.

                              Wind is howling like crazy here, so the game itself will be a total toss up, but the OVER will cash again.

                                  Cubbies have been bankroll killers for generations. Donkey's years.

                                    when its all said and done, they will finish under .500. they are to inconsistent and to many holes. Dodgers may be lumped into the same sentence soon.

                                          I personally like the Cubs. Everytime I bet against them at +160 or higher I win lol

                                              Dodgers without Manny. Shut out in four of their last six games.

                                                Right on JJ (for once)
