Philly has almost 70% backing them, yet the line has only moved four cents from -142/-146. This is probably partly because Blanton is pitching and has been subpar so far this season. If line drops possible Cubs play.

Similar scenario with Atlanta, over 70% backing them. The line opens up -138, quickly rises, but then reverses back down $.10, possible play on Pittsburgh if the line continues to drop. Kevin Bedard has pitched much better than the 0-4 record shows.

Washington looks very interesting as one of only two road favorites. They nearly beat the dodger ace last night, and will be watching this line. Why are the Dodgers at home underdogs?


Boston is the other road favorite, although they opened as a +110 underdog. The line has already moved $.20 in their favor. They have been pounding the ball and have scored more runs than any team in MLB to this point. Only 55% on them

Baltimore opens up -138 rises to -146 and they have 62% backing them. The line has now plunged $.20 to -126. That's very interesting. I like the looks of Oakland if that line keeps dropping, although won money on Oakland last night might be pushing it on another athletics road when. These guys are only hitting 203 as a team. That's pathetic, although somehow they have 500 record:shrug:

Ty for your insight, will look at your thread later on to see your final plays. All the best! :0008

 

[homerh]

good luck on your plays... like the info posted

Very small shot on Pittsburgh

may be pushing my luck, but I'll try Oakland for second road win in as many nights.

Also try Boston, Lester has been terrible, Jake Peavy has been fantastic, and the line has moved $.25 against him.

Mully I don't bet baseball but am curious--what does all that mean anyway? Anyone tracked it to see how these so called favortie bets do? Thanks. Someone posted kind of the same thing in college football one year and it came out 50/50. GL

Hawkeye, my thread from yesterday explains briefly what the columns mean.:toast:

Lewis has been solid for Texas, and owns a 4-0 record against Tampa. His counterpart is 0-2 against Texas. Don't like playing this much juice, but the line movement solid for Texas. Not a great idea playing against a Tampa team that's going for seven straight wins, but I'll take Texas.

 

[Mulligan]

Not looking like a good move taking Oakland to win two straight on the road. Going to make the same move with San Diego.

San Francisco had opened -165, 72% on the Giants and it bounced all the way up to -172, then dropped like a rock to -150, the freak at home and a $.22 drop with 72% behind them, that's why a small shot on the Padres. Hope they fare better than Oakland.

Really like under 193 in the Oklahoma City game
