Default Every Dog Has His Day - Monday.... Rays

Rays +155

I know Halladay is coming back off the DL. I know the Blues have benn tearing it up at home recently. But Halladay coming back reminds me of Smoltz last week. Start off rusty, then round into shape. The Rays aren't a team you want to face on your first day back on the job. I expect a lot of runs on both sides, but more from the Rays.

Laid $50 to win $105


Then I parlayed that with the 8.5 Over, with some lunch money.

This thread is 1-1 made $0

Other dogs that I took into consideration.

Royals /
Mets

I would have played them, but I'm limiting myself to one play a day on baseball. Just an evil sport.

You are predicting what will happen, not handicapping. Halladay can easily shut down the Rays.

It's still a good price with a team that can hit Halladay.

What's the difference? I see plenty of people using stats, or "Handicapping", and lose just as much or more than me. I use the stats to my advantage like any other guy, but a situational play is as good as any.

Yea, I almost cried when i saw that. I really thought I should wait for the Lang Fades to release, but I knew that the price I got would dwindle by gametime.

Nice hit. I guess a good strategy is to take the Red Sox, Yankees, Dodgers, or Rays any time they are this big of an underdog.
