    Default Interesting prop bet on Clemens

    heres an interesting prop bet at thegreek right now:

    Over 8 wins +110
    Under 8 wins -140
    this line is tough, but i feel the over just might have some value here.

    by the time he returns to the astros rotation, you figure it's going to be right around the time the astros should make there move in the division race, and the wild card.

    you have to figure a well rested Clemens could really put a hurting on some of these teams that are just going thru the motions (aka FL,cubs,pitt to name a few)

    I'd take the under myself for a couple of reasons.

    He doesn't go deep into games and bullpen could blow leads.
    He may not get off to the great start the public expects.
    He may get injured somewhere along the way losing starts.

    Wish they did 3 way betting on this, so the vig on the under wouldn't be so much.

    I wouldn't touch a prop like that but just for the sake of discussion, I think rolemand made some good points and the UNDER is the better bet.

    If healthy he should get about 18-20 starts. I can value in the over.

    I dont like that -140 part but I think Roger will get 6 or 7 wins. No way he gets 9 so I make this bet.
