Nice Dog play on Chicago White Sox Friday

[Brock Landers]

Danks is a quality pitcher, +168 is a really high number for someone of his ability. Colby Lewis is a decent enough pitcher, but he doesn't warrant that big a tariff.

White Sox lineup is fairly unchanged from last year

This should be a close one

My cash is on the + money

Salud!

[RoadDog]

With you on this one, because this is the only game the Sox have a shot of winning in this series and they know it.

[EXhoosier10]

Not sure why Texas is -180 in this one. just waiting waiting waiting until I can get +170

[SASH]

No, Texas is the play. Dont throw away money

[Brock Landers]

No, Texas is the play. Dont throw away money

its insane to lay that kind of number on opening day, The White Sox are plenty good with their best starter going

looks like youve already made your mind up so theres no way of swaying you. But your throwing away good money. So be it, Ill be the insane one tommorow on Texas

[HoulihansTX]

Brocks rolling. For him not to bet on a "sure thing" means he has money to blow.

[DSSCA]

Why is Texas such a good bet? (Not talking trash, just looking for good capping info)

[minet123]

Good Luck brock
I really need to check out your home group

you should be getting around +200 according to my rough calculations. The pitching matchup is pretty even to me. Danks and Lewis are both decent pitchers. Chicago's lineup isn't that great. I think Texas lineup is a solid 10% better and then you add 5% for homefield. Texas wins this game 65% of the time, not factoring in the bulpen. I think I threw around 2% more on Texas because I really disliked the White Sox bulpen as well.

AA could be a solid leadoff man, but is he really JUST NOW peaking in his 11th year??? Dunn is an awful cleanup man. Alex Rios, Gordon Beckham and Brent Morel are banjo players with SOME pop. This Viciedo may end up a player someday soon, but it won't be now. Pierzynski and Ramirez are solid hitters. The only good bat they have is Konerko. Compare this to the Rangers lineup.. Kinsler, Beltre, Hamilton, and Young are all really good hitters like Konerko. Andrus, Cruz, and Napoli are all solid hitters. Moreland is a bit of a banjo hitter, but he's the only one in the lineup. Murphy is decent hitter, comparable to AJ for the Sox. So you have 4 great hitters for Texas and 3 solid ones. You have 1 great hiter for Chicago and 2 solid ones.

Nice write up but none of this will matter. +1.5 sox is the best play

[HoulihansTX]

Under

[Brock Landers]

you can get a nice +175 on the sox now at Heritage

[BigBoi]

Rangers will not lose home opener.

[Smoke]

Mighty Quinn is on the rangers and he is terrible

White sox is the play

[HOT WINGS]

Under 9.5 and Whitesox +.5 ff +110 for me. Cant trust that bullpen late.

[jjgold]

I guess good value

Brock seems confident here

[marcojuiceman]

1-0 Texas 1st inning

[dondude]

Yeah good call the rangers suck right ??

[Powderguy]

Yeah good call the rangers suck right ??

lol, 1 inning of game 1 of 162

[Masu485]

lol, 1 inning of game 1 of 162

Thats 1/1458 innings.

Not only that, but I felt they should have gotten more runs there also.

[TheCentaur]

What an awful pitch to Kinsler

[dondude]

lol, 1 inning of game 1 of 162

Was being sarcastic. But I'm from Texas lol Pretty sure they win this one

[Jaug]

Easy win for texas. CWS 0 runs this game, calling it now.

[dondude]

The lineup hasn't changed much if anything they are better with David Murphy as a starter

[Jaug]

What an awful pitch to Kinsler

Yes, very bad.

[spankie]

Brock , do not bet teams you are in love with.

bad practice.

[Brock Landers]

Brock , do not bet teams you are in love with.

bad practice.

lots of game left

[spankie]

lots of game left

yes. but i am giving you advice for the future.

betting on teams you love = long term burial!

[Brock Landers]

Tie game!

[becketmcginn]

[Brock Landers]

was worth a shot on the + side

i can see Texas being very good again this year, White Sox are not a real good hitting team

onto the next play
