[phonepole]

11 Cardinals +105
12 Dodgers -115

15 Twins +105
16 Indians -115

21 Red Sox -115
22 Mariners +105

LA, losers of 8 of last 10, favored over Cards, who won 8 of their last 10 and just swept LA in a 4 game series in St Louis??????????

Indians, favored over the Twinkies who have won 7 straight and just beat them 3 out of 4?????????

Sox only -115 over the lowly M's who haven't won a series all month?????????????????

I know there's home team advantage, but do these lines make any sense??? :confused:

Good Luck Phonepole- Nice to see ya.

[griffey_mojo]

Things that make ya go hhhmmmm....

[Kaptain]

Not to mention Mariners a favorite in Game 1---go figure----good questions.....kapt

If it seems fishy to you, then don't take the bait. Vegas linesmakers know what they are doing. People will see that the hot teams are dogs and jump all over them. Take the unlikely favorites.

[kbsooner21]

definitely interesting to say the least

[Tomorrows Paper]

Well, all three are almost certain to win Game 1 of their series - one will probably lose, but all three teams are at huge pitching disadvantages.
Boston won't start Schilling, and Beckett is horrendous on the road.
The Dodgers would be the one that scared me, but I'd play Seattle and Cleveland in a heartbeat.

The lines make perfect sense. Nothing weird whatsoever.

The Dogders are playing over .600 ball at home (28-18) while the Cards are only playing .500 on the road (22-22). Why would the Cards be favoured in this series??? Suppan, Reyes and Weaver vs. Penny, Sele and Billingsley. Edge to the Dodgers.

The Twins are playing .369 ball on the road (17-29) while Cleveland plays .500 at home (23-23). Cleveland is 3-0 this year at home vs. Minnesota and 9-2 at home vs. Minny last 11 home meetings going back to last year. Silva, Baker and Liriano vs. C.C., Sowers and Westbrook. Edge to Cleveland.

Boston plays slightly better than .500 on the road (26-23) while Seattle plays exactly .500 at home (24-24). Seattle is 1-3 vs Boston this year all in Boston and all 3 losses were by only 1 run. Seattle won the season series at home last year 2-1. Snyder, Gabbard and Lester vs. Moyer, Hernandez and Washburn. Bosox have a harder time hitting lefties and will face 2 in this series. Edge to Seattle.

The lines are exactly what they should be!!! They make sense to me!!

These were my opinions and not plays. And I was referring to the series not individual plays so the 6-3 is meaningless. I can just picture you all weekend waiting for these plays to fall, pathetic. After our incident a couple of weeks ago I didn't say a word about you on here as I followed the mods' rules. But shows real class on your part to attack me indirectly through another thread knowing that if I retaliate I could be banned?? What are you?? The school bully??? This shows me you're still hung up on what people think about you. Let it go Chuck, life's too short to waste time on foolishness. Now if you will excuse me I'll go thank TP for the Braves winner.

Mods.......

I let the Chuck thing go after you guys gave me a warning, what am I supposed to do if he's starting this again???

I was talking to Gary about our conversation over the phone on these plays....It has nothing to do with attacking you..I just told him that I thought your views were incorrect as the Cards should sweep every game as they are at full force again and the Dodgers are hurting as they're losing streak has shown. I watch the local news here in Ca and everyone living here knows that the Dodgers are beat up and hurting without Gagne.
Minny is one of the hottest teams out there and Boston, well they are one of the contenders come playoffs.

It's nothing against you, just your views...

Dont you hate when people just butt in when they don't know what theyre talking about?
