Maybe this is another night with too much action. We shall see.
Boston -290 over TAMPA BAY 400/138
Yeah, the price is steep, and I don't recommend paying 2.9x your normal wager to get down on this game, but it is just a crime not to take advantage of Pedro pitching against these guys for a small amount of money. This is just a total mismatch through and through.
For those of you who like value, look at it this way: Would you give the Sox a 75% chance of beating the Rays with Pedro vs. Sturtze in Tampa? I would. If you would too, then there is value in any line you can get under -300.
Philadelphia -120 over PITTSBURGH 408/340
I placed this at WSEX and you have to call to be exactly $400 on a line like this so I just went for the closest number I could find.
Person has been decent, but the key here are the smoking hot Philly bats and a Philly pen that finally is coming back to form. Anderson has turned things around for Pittsburgh but I see this as too big a mismatch for him to overcome.
