yeah alot of big juice lines but the pitchers for those teams are Dan Haren, Aaron Cook, Roy Halladay, Joe Saunders and Ryan Dempster and they are all a home. Halladay and Haren have been getting -200 or better lines at home all year

The books got killed yesterday big time, but that's bound to happen several times during the year. The lines are just because you have the top pitchers all pitching at home against bad teams. Just look at all those matchups.

D'backs are -280 (vs Pittsburgh- Herrera)
Rockies are -230 (vs the Nats- Redding)
Blue jays are -210 (vs Oakland- Smith)
Angels are -215 (vs Baltimore- Sarfate)
Cubs are -210 (vs Houston- Moehler)

Redding is the only pitcher that doesn't suck, although Smith can be good at times. Colorado should be more like -150 actually, and Zona shouldn't be a high fav like that against anyone, but the rest are fine. It will be hard to find someone to bet against Haren though, even with that line.

A's win tomorrow. :103631605

They normally do well against Toronto, and Smith shut them down at the start of the year, but now they've seen them and the A's won't be able to hit Doc. Oakland is just one of the worst teams in the league on paper and it is finally showing.

Toronto should win a close game. 3-1 type of game.

Call me crazy but it looks profitable to bet all 5.

Hell, maybe I'm a sucker.

you think all 5 faves will win?

I can see 5 winning. I can see 4 winning. It just looks like a bad spot for the books.

Cubs with Dempster. Dempster=lights out @ home. Cubs=lights out @ home. Vs Houston who sucks on road.

Rocks with Cook. Rocks have been hot and look confident there going to make a run into October again and if they can take 2/3 from the Fish on the road they should glide past Tim Redding.

Jays with Halladay. A's have been kind of free falling post-break. Halladay is THE man. Jays bats came alive vs Rangers all weekend.

Angels with Saunders. Saunders is a beast at home. Angels are beasts everywhere. Orioles on the road with Safarte. Looks good.

Haren for the Backs. WAYYYYY overvalued. Lay off this one and I think we got 4-0 or 3-1 on our hands.

I know some people are allergic to juice but I don't mind it @ home with an ace if I feel confident.

Doubt I'll bet em all maybe none...who knows.

Saunders much better on the road then home

Cook is good but anyone laying that much juice on a 51-62 team needs to stop betting

Against a 41-70 team vs a team thats 9-2 in their last 11 at home I dont mind. I'll pick my spots.

Not saying I'm going to do it, just making a case for those that will. Saunders home stats are a bit blurred by an 8 run outing against the Rays. Take that start out and hes just as good @ home, if not better.

2nd: 6.2 IP, 3 ER, 6 H, 2 BB, 2 K WIN

1st: 5.0, 12 H, 4 ER, 0 BB WIN

Quality start 2nd time around. First time around threw a lot of strikes, he doesnt have K stuff so hits will fall on certain days with some bloops and nubbers. 12 H, 4 ER, 0 BB, tells me he threw strikes had some soft hits and got a lot of big outs.

I don't mind Saunders or the Angels @ home.
