    Anybody crazy enough to lay -160+ on Marcum?

    Never, ever, ever should Marcum be a -160 + favorite on the road, anytime !!
    Anywhere, that includes if he was starting against an AAA team.
    I don't care if the Mets just swept the Yankees, doesn't matter, look at the big picture, don't look short term, big picture still remains the Mets are horseshit, Marcum is horseshit, they are flying into Miami full of themselves for beating the Yankees 4 straight, the public perception is "maybe the Mets are for real..."

    I don't care if it's Jacob Turner, and the oppostion is the Fish, I am fading the Mets, with horseshit Marcum, on the road in Miami.

    Taking home dog Fish, +145, over Marcum.

    Marcum a -160 plus favorite on the road.

    I'll fade Marcum at -162 on the road yet, 8 days a week.
    Even if the Mets win, I won't regret this bet.
    Even the Fish can hit Marcum, OK, he was sharp his last time out, that is the exception, not the rule for this guy

    Although I think the Mets will be doomed in the 2nd half of the season, they are on a winning streak right now and it was definitely more the Yankees going cold that allowed it to happen. Nonetheless, you can't discount the fact that the Mets have a lot of confidence right now regardless of their record.
    IMO Miami's terrible record at home is no better than their terrible record away. No value in playing a team who is 1-9 in their last ten games when they have been sh*t all season and them being home doesn't make it any more value.

    I respect what you have to say, however, -164 (now) on Marcum is way over inflated.
    You want to say -135, or even -140, maybe? but more than 8:5 is whack.

    Taking the + money here.
    Nice + money at that.

    Marcum loves warm weather. I wouldn't be surprised if he cruises to an easy win tonight.

    pissed off yankees fan fading mets? J/K don't think Marcum should be such heavy favorite here and against any other team incuding Houston I would consider fading him but I have absolutely no trust in the Marlins lineup as their almost all easy outs.

    Also respectable. You are just trying to find the best value for your money. I guess a value bet for me would never include the Marlins. BOL tonight

    I'm going to join you on this one Nash. I guess I'm a glutton for a beating as the Marlins just CANNOT hit. Heck they scored both of their runs yesterday without the luxury of a hit (wild pitch and error).

    Here's to hoping Marcum doesn't become a cy young winner tonight.

    Marlins!!!!

    Nash is the only MLB capper here that's better than LT. However, Marcum sails to victory tonight. 7-1 Mets.

    I see your reasoning behind the pick, but I've lost way too much money on the Marlins this year thinking I had a good value play. They honestly might be the worst team in the last 10 years. Good luck man, hope it hits for you.

    The Marlins are not worse than Toronto this season, how are they the worst in the last 10 years. Do you even watch baseball?

    I've learned repeatedly that if you bet Miami 1st 5, you have to win 1-0. This line-up is putrid, but you can't stay away from them because the lines are so inflated.

    good dog hit. might be a play again tomorrow as well. MIA has a problem winning back to backers, but they did already pull that off against the Mets this year.
