Russel is a converted reliever so you could argue the Astros are into the Cubs pen in the 1st inning. Problem is Myers has shut down the Cubs of late and Astro's offense may need to put up 6 plus here. Over is tempting but I like Astros's with Myers -130 or so better. GL.
Like the play. Was going to go Astros First 5 because myers has alot of quality starts in a row but had a bad feeling about it.. Didnt think about the over until I saw your post.. Thanks.. Think its a winner.............
My thoughts too. Nice bottom of 1st w/ a 2 out hit and crazy baserunning play (player arguably ran out of baseline to avoid tag in rundown) gives Stros 3-0 lead. On Stros and team total over 4. How about a 7-3 Astros win and we all cash.
Agreed. And if Cubs don't score 3 or more they won't use Wood so Stro's should have decent chance to cover the over 8 themselves off Cubs middle relief.
You were right on with your reasoning for the bet. At 8 right now, hopefully they get another for us. I had a bad feeling it was gonna end 7-0 so I'm happy either way....thanks for the play and let's get one more run
