Great prop bet - Russell Martin

I_Need_Money · Jul 10, 2007

Prop bet:

Player to get more hit + rbi

Russell Martin -115
Ivan Rodriguez -115

The only other NL catcher is McCann. He's been injured lately, so I doubt he plays much.

There are a total of 3 AL catchers, Ivan is old and has been to a bunch of these, so he probably only gets 1 AB. Plus Leyland, both his and the allstar manager, would like to get him out asap.

There are probably other Martin vs Pudge bets, but this is the one I found first. Will look for more.

BOL everyone

I do however see a McCann/Martin vs. Posada/Rodriguez prop.

Yeah that one doesn't really utilize the advantage either. But I do like the NL there too.

I just feel like Pudge gets 1 ab and Martin gets about 3 ab.

sharp post. Thanks for the thought.

NL starter-martin
reserves-mccann

AL starter-rodriguez
reserves-victor martinez, posada

gotta agree on this one, rodriguez shouldnt even be starting with the way martinez is playing, and you know the yankee gotta get some playing time

nice post and BOL. I've only got Mccann/Martin vs Pudge/Posada so defeats the purpose but good insight and reasoning. appreciate it

i might even take that, martinez is the best hitting catcher in the game right now, may not be the best behind the plate though, i would think he would get some good playing time though, 3 innings at least, so its 9 innings of at bats vs. 6
