I don't tout too many sides, but I think the Devil Rays are a monster play tomorrow. I've been to both games so far here in Orlando, and Texas looks like they're going through the motions while the Devil Rays are playing like the World Series is on the line. Texas looks flat as hell, and their bullpen is exhausted. If Kasmir has a half-decent game tomorrow, the D-Rays should sweep them. Texas blows right now and Tampa has been riding the wave of the high-energy surrounding the excitement of playing in Orlando for the first time.

Thought about it, but it's really hard to play a team at -156 (at my book) when the bullpen is horrible.

Rangers also hit lefties pretty well last year and I figure they'll come around eventually.

Bullpen is concern numero uno though.

D-Rays have been playing good baseball lately.
Sound pick.

-156? Wow. Didnt think it be that high for Kazmir. If it drops some, sure..but -150 for a Rays game, is still a heavy price.

If concerned about bullpen, might I recommend the 1st 5 innings line - may be a good angle for this one...

Like the play personally and just hoping I can get it at a slightly better price.

Sometimes when a price is that high on a team you just can't see layin that kind of juice, I believe the books want you to think that, the line is that high for a reason. good luck

Loe has been very inconsistent and the Rangers are playing with very low energy right now. I've been sitting right behind home plate three rows back for these games. The Devil Rays are a young team and they all pumped up for these Disney games, believe me. Tampa looks good enough to eat tonight. This is one of those games that looks TOO good, and you all know what I mean. Anyways, I'll be there again tonight, this time with two hot Russian girls from my gym. Life is good these days, thanks to the Lord.

Money is trickling in on TB and the number is creeping up. I'm pulling a hostile takeover today, as I'm having one of those days where it seems like I have the next day's sports section in my hands. D-Rays...don't miss it, ladies!!! (Good luck, girls :) ...I'm off to the ball park...rain is threatening, though.)

this game open at 149, since that at most outs it 157-166 the key in this game if the number stay strong over the 157 area if it drop under 150 stay away.this game should be a 10 mins before the game decison play imo.gl.......ck

I was on Tampa and the shitty pitcher fossum last night but I may have to take texas here.. but I certainly don't feel comfortable playing them in this spot considering how they've been playing.. anti-liberal is right about the team being kind of dead, as they didn't show much at all at home against the angels

ANTILIB, it feels pretty good to be actually agreeing with you.....heh

Just saw your thread postgame, but had already posted TBAY as my own preference early this morning along with the Over.

The DRays are entering a stretch of about 20 games that look very favorable to their potentially lethal offense. Should be a lot of fun to watch.

:money8: We shit out with a walk-off homer! Right before that pitch, I leaned over and told the people I was sitting with that Young was going to get a rip to rightfield, and then he blasted it over the rightfield fence. What a fun game, and it's always more fun when you have the right side. We blew a 2-run and 3-run lead and it didn't look good after a two-base error to lead off the tenth for Texas, but the Devil Ray bullpen came through bigtime.
