Why call them idiots? No one in here tried to answer your question or prove you wrong. They were just stating that a -360 and -320 got rocked a few weeks ago.
to answer your ? IDK, but I would assume anything over -300 has got to be up there with all of them...
I'm taking my chances against that -310 which it is now because I will never lay that on a MLB game.
2nd time it's ever happened:

Here's the scouting report on Astros first time starter:
[FONT=arial !important]
Jarred Cosart (RHP - HOU)
[/FONT][FONT=arial !important]Signed by the Phillies for $550,000 in 2008, Jarred Cosart quickly emerged as one of the more electric arms in the minors. Houston targeted him and Jonathan Singleton in the 2011 Hunter Pence trade but blisters interrupted his first full season in the Astros minor league system in 2012. He rallied late, allowing no earned runs in five of his last 10 starts, then threw well in the Arizona Fall League despite poor numbers. Cosart has a live, quick arm that produces a hard sinker that sits at 94-97 mph and touched 99 in the AFL. His fastball has excellent life down in the zone, which produces plenty of ground balls but makes the pitch tough to control. He excels at keeping the ball in the park, and he nearly got as many double plays (18) as he allowed extra-base hits (26) in 2012. Cosart throws his curveball with power, reaching 81-82 mph with good shape, and his solid straight changeup plays off his fastball well. Better command of his curveball would produce the strikeouts expected of a pitcher with such electric stuff. Cosart has shown flashes of brilliance but not consistency. Cosart pounds the bottom half of the strike zone well and is effective against both LHB and RHB.[/FONT]2013 STATS: Oklahoma City (AAA) – 17 g, 17 gs, 7-4, 3.29 ERA, 93.0 IP 50/93 BB/K 4.8 Ctl, .213 oppBA[FONT=arial !important]
CURRENT ROLE: Spot starter

I put a modest weight on HOU tonight. While they are a terrible team, they have considerably better splits on the road and vs lefties (I know price tore them up two starts ago). However, I suspect Price will have a short leash. 16 ip last two starts right after coming off the Dl. I think Madden will give him a nice long AS break witha shorter start tonight.
Ironically the last team to beat TB was HOU.
Good luck to all however yuh pick em tonight...
