Fade the Twins

[Illusion]

Minesota finally goes out on the road this week where they are only 18-20. Fading the Twins this week is a real good idea.

[pavyracer]

I will look into them Illusion. You are correct. The astroturf is a big advantage when all you do is hit ground balls. Can you post their schedule on the road and pitcher matchups?

Thanks.

[rake922]

thanks for the heads up... they're screwed.... They play at Fenway.....

[sickler]

Look at the pitching matchups for this coming week. Fading them won't pay much unless you want to play the dreaded home team RL.

Minny is a very dangerous and well coached team, be careful here.

[Wilforth]

Can't fade the Twins against Matsuzaka. Better to let that one pass.

[johnnymapalo]

baker is hot garbage. would never fade the twins when baker is pitching. Boston and Matziuki is too good to go against with that bum Baker...

[ryanXL977]

you guys are wrong
as long as they are plus money, take them
well coached, fast, good d, great pen

all their starters are solid, especially baker and slowey
anyone who says otherwise doesnt watch baseball

Dude, fading means to bet against.

i agree...twins are better under the roof...but they can beat u on grass also

[ryanXL977]

if they are big dogs vs matsuzaka, who is just crap with a bosox uniform on, pound them
i will

[johnnymapalo]

Dude, fading means to bet against.

oh snap, my bad. Too much alcohol. Read wrong..

[ryanXL977]

matsuzaka is not good
i just dont understand how anyone who watches him can say that
i dont hate the bosox, healthy they are the best team every year, but matsuzaka is crap

laying -175 vs the twins?

sounds like i have no choice

baker is no worse than dice k

[sickler]

oh snap, my bad. Too much alcohol. Read wrong..

lol...I don't drink. Prolly why I caught it.

Twins +1.5 (-130)
Makes a lot of sense to take the twins on the runline against a team struggling to score runs. Baker is a tough customer and he keeps getting better.

[darrell74]

I'll get the twikies. Bosox had a late night, last night.
Come to think of it, this is gonna be my dog of the day in LT Profits contest . I had'em yesterday at a +103-WINNER! But L.T. had me switch to Houston-tough beat. Stros up 6-4 in the eighth, and blow it.
Why the hell not-Boston is 1-2 in Dice-k's last three starts. Minny is3-0 in Baker's last three. Minny 5-1 in last 6 vs. Bosox. Why not for a big +.
Hell anything sounds good after that robbing I took from Wimbeldon, yesterday.

[LT Profits]

I think this is a terrible idea Illusion. Twins road record is a reslt of their slow start, but they are on fire right now at 19-4 last 23 overall, and that includes quite a few road wins.

Well, I didn't MAKE you switch. The Twins were not listed for selection because they were not more than +110.

You're right. I'm bitter about the Stros choking.

[pat venditto]

dont fade teams. handicap game by game to see what is the proper play if any.

[woodg8]

I'd be wary with fading the Twins here. Red Sox have been utter garbage the last 2 series at home, and have fallen away the last 2 games at the Yankees. If anything, I'd take +1.5 Twins here.

[LT Profits]

Pat is right here (Did I actuallly say that?), you really can't make long term generalizations like this. You have to cap each game individually.

[AC1318]

for the record when and since illusion has been picking teams the past couple years to fade from what I can remember he usually fares well and picks up coin.

Although I am betting minn myself tonight

good luck all

[pat venditto]

lt i love u pal sorry about the other nights video i was drunk. lets win money pal!

[rake922]

0-2 so far

[Illusion]

0-2 so far

On the way to 0-3.

[rake922]

Pedroia is f'n awesome

[Tsoprano]

They got killledd today, fading them in this series is for sure!

[sickler]

Lots of chalk, but the Twinkie faders found success.

[Brock Landers]

They are like 2 different teams at home and away, come to think of it, this year has been more teams fit this pattern that any other year i can think of

[sickler]

Only four teams have a better than .500 road record so far this season.

Yanks
Angels
Phillies
Cards

[ZBOIZ]

Take Minn. tommorow..DONT FADE!!

[pavyracer]

Never fade Twins when they play Detroit.

[ryanXL977]

do not fade the twins period
they are the best TEAM in the al as of now
the best
mark my words, anytime they are a dog at any place but boston, bet em
