Too much chalk for Tampa Bay, but can anyone make a case for the Royals here?

Yeah I noticed, figured I'd see if any Players Talk heads have some differing opinions.
Are you playing this game?

TB -1 1/2, they are hotter than fire right now, to bet against them at this point would be really dumb.

doesnt matter how hot they are. cap todays game. yesterday had no barring and will not factor into todays results.
I think line is inflated and I couldn't bet either side.

I agree that the line is inflated, but I can still see TB winning.
The total might be a better bet but who knows. I don't sense much value here.

The "don't wanna get SWEPT" factor maybe ?

crazyl you're spot on pal. even if u get royals at +190 they are terrible and one of most inconsistent teams if not the worst team in league next to the nats.

Garza has been nearly untouchable at home & the Rays don't score much in support of home. Meche has been in a decent groove. Under would seem like the best shot, although I would point out that both pitchers average totals during day starts is around 9 runs per game vs. much lower totals for the home/road splits. Might go on the island and take the over. Lineups are essential.

Rays are 32-6 in last 38 home games.
These last 2 games are the first time the lines seem to have adjusted for the Rays success.
The only thing about todays game is the early get away game on a Monday. Not to many teams play these early games on Mondays. Are the Royals just looking to get out of town in a hurry, or are the Rays looking forward to the Yankees and happy with taking 3 games already.
This game to me is more of who mentally is ready to play this early afternoon game and not what has happened in the past.

Good analysis.
I wish there was a play that jumped out to me as I kind of want a little bit of action, but I won't force things.

Well after the game all the experts will come out with the "I told you so."
Rays win - Lock of the day fellas
Royals win - what a value play, suckers took the Rays
under - who did not see this with the way Garza has been pitching.
over- Had to know these two pitchers were overrated.
Watch when the game is over.

No Guillen for the Royals. No Upton for the Rays - that's about the only real difference I see from the other games as far as lineups.

After looking at the lineups they look solid, not soiled so I decided to pass on this game. I have some better picks for later tonight.

Don't be fooled. It's a books trick to make you think sharps are on Royals.

crazyl,
Sorry I didn't see this earlier. All you had to do was bet KC +1.5 -105 at You Know Where! 30 cents off market of +1.5 -135.
