Thursday bases no-brainer

[grandpa]

Twins (Santana) -165

Everyone knows Santana's eye-popping post All-Star #s his entire career, so I won't bore with the details.

But add in Beckett's 0-5 L5 at Fenway, Boston 1-5 L6 at Fenway and Boston 0-5 season v Twins, and as unreal as it may sound, -165 is actually a bargain!

 

[LUCKY 7]

Makes you wonder about the line.......huh?

Good Luck

"Makes you wonder about the line"

From what I've seen, Vegas ALWAYS knows

 

[grandpa]

I ain't scurred of this line!

Glad to get it.

Juice only matters if you lose, and I ain't worried 'bout that!

Besides, Santana: 21-2 TSR as a favorite of -150 or more

 

[Orange03]

I dont remember santana's juice being that low in a while!!!

 

[grandpa]

He was -136 @ CWS on 8-26, an 8-7 extra innings winner.

He was -110 @ Det on 8-9 , a 4-3 winner, leaving the game with 4-1 lead before Rincon made it interesting in the 8th. Nathan closed it in 9th.

Only game started by Santana since the break that Twins lost was last outing, a 5-4 xtra innings loser @Cleveland.

 

[grandpa]

If you had played Twins in every Santana outing since the break this yr, as I have, you would be 12-1, like the Twins.

 

[BleedDodgerBlue]

not sure about no-brainer, but solid play.

you got all the help in the world with mclelland behind the plate. 0-7 for home dogs this year, and his 4 appearances with santana on the mound, he is 4-0.

boston has packed it in for the year.

Tailing you on this one and adding the awful fading White Sox for the parlay, Vazquez has some good luck vs the Mariners.

This could be the 3rd time I get screwed by the WSox this week. :mj07:

 

[KG5678]

Oh No ! It's Big Papi ! :mj07:

 

[KG5678]

Not such a no-brainer anymore eh buddy ? Santana is getting rocked.

 

[grandpa]

Well it would have been nice if he could have fielded the position in the 2nd. Who knows what it would look like now. Besides, if they get shutout, it doesn't matter who pitches for ya.

 

[KG5678]

Beckett is making them look silly right now. But I've seen this guy implode on several occasions this season, all it takes is one inning for the Twins to get right back in it. I'm actually expecting it to happen.

Santana better not give up anything else.

 

[KG5678]

Forget about it. Beckett decides to show up every once in a while. This game is over !

 

[grandpa]

Beckett also showed up a couple weeks ago at LAA v Weaver, giving the kid his first ML loss.

Hard to win when you can't score.

Still playin with loads of house money, but this one hurts.
