    Today's MLB play is the SF Giants
    Currently at -180 to -200 depending on the book. I usually don't like heavy MLB favorites like this, but with Lincecum pitching against Oliver Perez I think this is great value. Giants are a good team and will avoid a sweep with the best pitcher in baseball taking the mound. Hit it hard.

      i debated that but i've found that the better value is usually on the +1.5 side of it, and after getting killed on -1.5's last year i made a commitment to avoid them 100% this year.

      when it's all said and done, -1.5 is probably the better play though.

            i'm gonna take lincecum when he's a 1/2 fav when he's up against someone like oliver perez. no need to over think it.

              They're making Lincecum throw alot of pitches though, the Giants need to keep scoring cause were prolly gonna see the bullpen, the same bullpen that gave up 2 walk off HRs already this series.

                they'll let lincecum go as high as about 120, he should get thru 7.

                  Ace pitchers are never "great value" on the road. They are almost entirely overrated in spots like this.

                  Lookin good so far though, BOL with your play.

                          I'm on the Giants -1.5

                          I think I'll be sweating this game out. Like every damn Giants game.

                                        2 on one out, this is where the Giants begin to regret not scoring more

                                              chill out my friend, 2 run lead going in the latter innings. looking good.

                                              it's a shame we aren't up more with all those walks, but whatever, it's a long game and we're looking very good right now.

                                              the freak let up 2 in 6, good outing but not his best.

You believe in it, you are loyal to it, would defend it, and yet have no proof of it, other than that, at one point or another, you chose to believe in it. Self-hypnosis. What if there were a snapping of fingers that broke the hypnosis?
