Cubs can't lose!!!

[Bob Stoops]

Bob Stoops - Head Football coach at the University of Oklahoma as well as Kelvin Sampson - Head Men's Basketball coach at OU are singing "Take me out to the ballgame" in the seventh inning stretch!

Stoops won the National Championship in 2000 and Sampson went to the Final Four this year.

Load Up!

yeah, but Sampson lost to a clearly inferior team. UH oh, cubbies.

Seriously, I'm with you on the cubs. Half unit on the over, too.

I hate betting Cubs (except totals). They are never worth this chalk.

and many of these pitchers brought up from minors, are excellent in their first game (if they have previously pitched in majors)--lots of adrenaline and work hard, but have enuf experience not to be overwhelmed.

But, yes, Brew Crew have a very hard time getting two wins in a row, and Cubbies usually show up to play after a pasting. so probably worth a shot at -1.5

looking for better stuff...

You are right on, Terryray......this is strictly an action bet for me....small. Lots of if's. Either the new guy blows up or gets blown up. Usually not in between. Clement, who knows? Maybe they play Bobby Hill today and he has a big game....very iffy. I'll take the scrubs and over.

Terryray--

They actually are best when they are making their first career start, according to Mike Lee's book. They tend to have the adrenaline going, and are very focused. I'm leery of them in their 2nd start, especially after they've had success in their first start (i.e Simontacci).
