How heavy would you bet them? Would it be your play of the day? of the week?


I've got a chance to bet on the Cubs tonight against a Mets fan for as much as I want at even money.

Cubs are hot, and they got their ace on the mound. They have been in Chicago where as the Mets have been on the road and just used their bullpen a lot last night.


I like the cubs a lot. But would not go crazy, I mean the opening line was -125 so it wasn't even that much higher than a regular pickem -110.

"Cubs are hot,"
What are the Mets?

"got their ace on the mound"
Zambrano still doesn't qualify as a true ace in my book because of his potential to walk 8 people at any moment. True aces you can always depend for a solid start.

"where as the Mets have been on the road"
They were in Philly. For 3 days. Thats like an hour away from home.

"and just used their bullpen a lot last night"
Hmmmm
Sosa threw 18 pitches
Joe Smith thre 17 pitches
Feliciano threw 17 pitches

Thats the extent of the Mets bullpen usage last night. That qualifies as what? They have Heilman, Sanchez, Schowenweiss, & Wagner. Sosa, Smith and Feliciano will all probably be available although Feliciano may be the only one needed.


Mets win 5-2

Middle em.

Take you boy for a dime on the Cubbies at Even.

Play the Mets for a dime +125 at 5dimes or another offshore.

If the cubbies win, you take your buddies money and replace it in your offshore account. If the Mets win, pay up your buddy the dime from the offshore account and you keep the $250.00

No risk, $250.00 reward.

Hell, if your bud can do 5 dimes take it all and have zero risk for a possible $1250 payoff.

Mets have scored an average of 4 runs their last 5 games. Cubs have averaged 9.

I really don't care about "your book". He has walked 3 batters in 26 innings this season.

"where as the Mets have been on the road"
They were in Philly. For 3 days. Thats like an hour away from home.


And if this game was being played in NY it would matter. It's in Chicago where the cubs have been waiting, and the Mets had to catch a flight after midnight .

I'm not saying their arms are going to fall off but their starters have not gotten through 6 in the last 2 games.

Cubs win 7-3

Cubs lineup doesn't scare me that much tonight. I know they scored 13 runs their last two games, but thats against the shit Pirates. I have the Mets tonight.
