Be aware if you are wagering on this game.

Fossum is the listed pitcher for the DRAYS currently, but LOU PINELLA has stated that he will start a reliever for the first 2 innings and then bring in Fossum.

If you are wagering this game, be aware of this fact...............as if you list pitchers you will have NO ACTION on this game if this does in fact occur.............and if just listing your wager as ACTION without listing your starting pitchers, the odds will change on your wager.

Remember, on all run line wagers and total wagers, the listed starting pitcher at the time of your wager MUST START.............or NO ACTION.

If what Lou says is true, you may see FOSSUM taken down as the starting pitcher as game time nears.

the thing to do is fade the d-rays first 4.5 innings until lou stops doing this

I love sweet lou. This is a little strange to me though.

What is the difference if the reliever starts or comes in after after the 6th?

Why does it matter who gets them to Baez? Thats if they can actually get a lead going.

This is a stupid ass strategy if I have ever seen one. You want your best out there in the first inning when the other team's lineup is set up how they want it.

This is kind of interesting. Has Lou or anyone else done this before?

The problem with the first 4.5 inning bet is that those bets are ALWAYS with listed pitchers

Lou is losing it and trying to get fired. Hendrickson, one of the most hittable starters in the bigs actually outpitched Garcia. Carter was the pen clown that gave up Big Hurt's 3 run HR. When he said that, post game interview, the entire press corps laughed. I thinking he said it out of frustration of losing another winnable game. I have seen some crazy stuff, batting order out of a hat is one. But I would be very surprised if he did not cool off and reconsider. Poor Lou, great manager working for petty ownership. What a way to end a great career. You know he actually is a real good guy.

Looks like OLY, CRIS and 5 dimes are it. They list TB any starter? The late arrivers are just playing the waiting game. I am really shocked on the impact of his statement. Would appear nobody wants the exposure if he actually follows through. They are listing starter as undecided. MLB is not going to let this happen often.

If it were anyone else but Contreras, i would say they can list IRRELEVANT as the starting pitcher because it won't matter anyway.

You must have read my mind Brock. He is their weakest link. The intrigue is actually nice with this boring time.

After all that Fossum is starting. Thanks Lou. Wonder if MLB helped him decide.
