There's a line comparison here that I can't wrap my head around and it seems to point to Halladay being way overvalued by the market. The Phillies opened up at -155 against the cards. The Red Sox when Beckett was slated to start opened up at -205. If the Phillies were at home that translates to about -195. So there's only a 10 cent difference between this matchup: Sox/Padres best offense in baseball vs worst, Beckett vs Latos.....Phillies/Cards, about equal offenses(without pujols) and Halladay vs McClellan. I know that Beckett is expected to regress quite a bit but can the difference between Halladay and McClellan be almost equal to the difference in sox/padres offenses AND the advantage of Beckett over Latos?
and the market has already moved the cards up to -167 which put that matchup on dead equal footing with sox if beckett was starting vs the padres
