Default Selection

Good evening gentlemen on this light night for baseball. We go with a total play with the Cardinal/Mets. 75% of the money is going Over. Combined ERA 11.4 sticks out like sore thumb for the square money. Also, there is a premium to take the Under at -115.

A ton of over bias with an under premium. Go contrarian and take the Under.

Under Mets 9.5 -115

I want to thank all the supporters of the thread. Would love to hear from you guys.

I actually like the UNDER in the cubs - braves game more where most money is also on the Over. The total for the 1H there is listed as 3.5 (+110) only so the books expect good starting pitchers' performance. Chicago's Total Runs only 3.

And I like a parlay of Braves / Under too.

Took the over in the braves (7.5) and A's (8) games tonight. Hot humid weather and over rated pitchers in both games. Good luck with the under tonight.

I tried to say that word out loud... impossible. Pair stays on the contrary with regards to the dictionary too.

Took Mets RL +175, even though most of the money is on the Cards ML. Just keeping it on the contrary.

I'm on the Under with you Pair. This is a true Contrarian pick if there ever was one.

It will take a small miracle for this to cash. Wellemeyer looked awful tonight (and quite frankly, he is awful).

5-4 top 8

6 outs.


I'll never bet on baseball again if I can get 6 outs.


When Luis Castillo faces a 3-1 count or 3-0 count he is GUARANTEED to show bunt. I always laugh.

OK. Where do I start? First Reyes of the Cards completely whiffs an easy out at first when he drops the ball while throwing it to first. Then, Castillo gets thrown out at the plate by Ankiel but the home plate umpire who was completely out of position to make the correct call makes the safe call. I 'd.

Tonight, the total gods were out to get the contrarians. I believe it was the right play but hand grenades it's not.

Under Mets 9.5 -115 (L)
