1)Yanks in bounce back spot at home in must win
2)Hunter is in just his 3rd year with limited experience (no playoffs obv) and now has to pitch in Yankee stadium in October..
3)Burnett has sucked this year, but is "battle tested" pitching solid in last years playoffs, particularly in a similar must-win spot game 2 of WS giving up 1 ER. Good chance he gives a decent performance, which is all Yanks need.
4)The line seems intuitively off at first look considering alone how bad Burnett is been; seems like a sign Yanks are play

If you take straight action and not listed pitchers, won't any action just be re-graded at the opening line of the "new" listed pitchers?
I ran into this spot a few months back thinking I could get some value, but didn't read the book's fine print on this. I was wrong. Is this just my book or (i would assume) industry-wide?

Indeed, listed pitcher to protect you from that. Action is like an auto-bet on the new line, which obv. sucks unless someone doesn't care about odds at all

I agree with this guy. NYY -140 is Fishy Line City. Books want everyone on TEX.

It's up to -146 at a couple of books. A pretty high number don't you think? I mean the guy hasn't won since July 28th...1-7, 6.82 ERA).
Girardi confirmed that Burnett WILL start tonight.
The Rangers WILL win tonight. Take Hunter and the gift from above.

I'm still leaning Rangers buy I do agree with your post.
Winning game 3 in Yankee stadium is a momentum builder. Thats 2 wins in a row and now you get Burnett and a +135 to boot. I certainly couldnt lay -140.(..and dam sure can't lay off)

Nobody remembers what the Red Sox did to the Yankees in 2004????
Yankees leading the series 3-0 and the Sox come back and sweep.
I see Rangers dominating tomorrow.
PS. I feel sorry for all those gamblers betting $1K units on the Yankees for Game 4 of the 2004 ALCS.

always would remember that for the rest of my friggin' life! Gotta love it!
But r the Rangers cappable? I'm will take the Rangers also I think, I've seen Burn-it so many time to blow it, but can Hunter handle it?
Bosox-Yankees is another story they hate each other they'll fight till the end just to fvck each other!

Latinrus, if the Rangers can score enough insurance runs for Hunter, I think they can cover it up for the Win.
