Question for the Forum?

Minnesota and Kansas City were rained out tonight. Late last night, Minnesota opened as a $1.15 favorite (Radke vs George). Tomorrow, Radke and George are listed as the starting pitchers again, but this time Kansas City is a $1.20 favorite. What gives? Are the Royals favored because their bullpen got an extra day of rest? Thanks in advance!

That could be one factor.

IMO if you look at the number of HR that Radke has given up this year, maybe the oddsmakers have had time to take that into account as well. Personally I think that something is wrong with him, and you will be seeing him go on the DL soon. He also does not have great career numbers vs. the Royals. George has been a Gas Can vs. the Twins as well. Maybe some value in the over depending on the WX report.

The more I look at that Twins lineup, the more I don't like it. They may still turn it around, b/c of their solid bullpen but I realistically see them winnng around 85 games this year.

As psychopathic as the White Sox are, I see them winning that division. I could be dead wrong, but figured I would put my 2 cents out there anyway.

At what book? :shrug:

The overnight line at scoresandodds for both games. Escrow, I appreciate your input, but I don't think the oddsmakers are adjusting for something they missed the first time around. I think they have adjusted the line based on where the money was going today. Any more feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Where the money was going today was on Minnesota by 7-10 cents at most books. Scoresandodds I would not pay too much attention to

Minnesota opens tomorrow at -122, where today they opened at -115. Anyway we can start using scoresandodds as an out
