  • The hot team with the best pitcher is a pretty big dog -- WHAT A PLAY

    I had to look twice when I saw this line. And then I looked again. How many times have we said "the wrong team is favored". This is the first time this year, I honestly believe the wrong team is favored and not by just a little. The 10 cent line has Milwaukee favored at -154 and the dog San Francisco getting PLUS 144.

    Even with this being a road game for the Giants, they still should be the favorite. Just look at these numbers. The Giant's are hot, winning 5 of their last 6 games and the Brewers are just the opposite, losing 5 of their last 6 games. That's usually enough for me to find a play but look at the pitching matchup for this game. CAIN for the Giants has won 7 in a row and is 9-1 for the season with an ERA of just 2.28. And this guy is a dog!!! Granted, there is nothing wrong with Yovani Gallardoy, who is 7-4 with an ERA of just 3.00 but when is the last time you have seen the second lowest ERA in the league getting PLUS 144.

    The HOT team with the HOT pitcher vs a team in a slump. What am I missing here? This looks like a gift even thought I know there are no gifts in betting. But there are mistakes and it looks like the linemakers made a big mistake with this line. BTW, I'm an A's fan and I hate the Giants, but my money dosen't care who I play, only that I play the team that looks like the winner. So, now I have to root for the team I hate, but it's OK if we all make some money on them.

    PLAY SAN FRANCISCO PLUS 144 WITH CAIN.

    The line is most likely due to history where as the Brew crew has won the last 12 of 14 games at home against the Giants scoring 7 runs a game but I'm with you on this one SF is the play here. Also SF+1.5 is as close to a lock as you get,IMO.

    Good Luck!
