ZetaPsi808 · 06-12-10, 10:28 PM

indians ML and +1.5 for me pal

suckerforparlays · 06-12-10, 10:29 PM

lol strassburg is gonna tear the plate up

pavyracer · 06-12-10, 10:32 PM

He is also facing a DH. There is no value taking a rookie at -220 on the road.

Slim · 06-12-10, 10:34 PM

How bout -203?

pat venditto · 06-12-10, 10:40 PM

I think number is about right.

Boscoe · 06-12-10, 10:43 PM

Bigtime square play, right?

Slim · 06-12-10, 11:20 PM

Bookmaker has it at -230 now.

Indians son

Deuce · 06-13-10, 12:12 AM

He is going to get chucked. Mark my words.

Metalhead · 06-13-10, 12:17 AM

If people are laying -200 in his second career start for a mediocre team, what's it gonna be like 5 years from now the Nats and Strasburg are much better?

pat venditto · 06-13-10, 12:18 AM

Maybe this kid is the real deal.

blix177 · 06-13-10, 12:20 AM

He is not that good.

ronjon619 · 06-13-10, 12:22 AM

I remember when Nomo first came up with the Dodgers. He commanded those type of prices also. He would be -250 at home and at least -180 on the road.

Metalhead · 06-13-10, 12:22 AM

I think he's good, but how many pitchers in all of MLB do you lay -200 on the road? Now think if those pitchers were on the Nats. Would you still lay -200 on the road?

rm18 · 06-13-10, 12:24 AM

Strasburg will be -500 against the Astros next year.

EDDIE MONEY LINE · 06-13-10, 12:25 AM

indians aren't good tho...almost had the perfect game thrown against them by a mediocre pitcher like galaraga

Fthenorm · 06-13-10, 12:28 AM

Nats will have to do something they couldnt do today which is put up more than a run

Exactly! That's the problem with the Nats being very average and on the road. At a price greater than -200 you need Strasburg to be good and enough offense to win this bet 3 out of 4 times. I don't know if that is profitable right now.

Brock Landers · 06-13-10, 01:01 AM

Helps that 1)he is facing Cleveland and 2)Huff is his opponent, the price is right

stealthyburrito · 06-13-10, 01:09 AM

price is not right, the nats are dreadful on the road and cannot score runs away from DC.

starfire · 06-13-10, 01:23 AM

ah. I dont buy this Hype. I cant wait till he faces a real team.

Brock Landers · 06-13-10, 01:32 AM

Strasburg starts out 2-0, Gets cup cakes in his 1st two...

Masu485 · 06-13-10, 01:34 AM

is -230 the highest road price of the year so far? it just seems so damn high, even the elite pitches on the elite teams barely break -200 on the road

rm18 · 06-13-10, 01:42 AM

Burnett opened higher that that against the Orioles a few days ago but it got bet down

eidolon · 06-13-10, 01:52 AM

Nats win 5-1

milwaukee mike · 06-13-10, 06:36 AM

i feel MUCH more comfortable playing the run line at -1.5 -122 than laying over -200

did this last time too, i think he's the kind of pitcher that can dominate.

even those 2 runs against him last game were on a home run that BARELY cleared the fence, he wasn't giving up any runs or even baserunners after that - just striking out anyone and everyone

milwaukee mike · 06-13-10, 06:37 AM

good luck all, i wouldn't go against this kid at this point

jjgold · 06-13-10, 06:50 AM

Take RL!!!

cmon jj act like u know something.hes pitched one game and it was against pittsburgh.he had his first start which was great but i dont think it will last.plus a rookie is not worth that line.i thought u knew baseball maybe u should stick to doing your aunt or whoever u wanted to do and let the guys who now baseball .pick baseball....

Chi_archie · 06-13-10, 07:47 AM

Huff is alot better at home.....

can't wait to see Strasburg face Arizona and strike out 21

This.

Nats are unbettable at this price, I don't get why it keeps rising. Huff 3.12 at home.. Stras going against better league, on road

played CLE solely because of the price.

ProfaneReality · 06-13-10, 09:27 AM

another thing... They have him capped at around 90 pitches... thats 5 innings, 6 if he is lucky.. a strike out pitcher like him, the pitches rack up quick.
