Millwood pitches better in regular play than spring training
|
|
By:
Rays have had plenty of pre-season hype and the public cant shovel enough money on them. But they are way too short at 1.49. Millwood is a decent pitcher and the O's upset the Yankees in their season-opener last year. Id be tempted to lay the Rays at that price.

The Rays are 1.53 to win su.
Road favourites, when they win the game, win by more than 1 run 79% of the time. So if you must bet short favourites on the road, bet the runline. Uncle Joe has the Rays available at 2.15 on the Runline. |

eH,? tHE rAYS ARE AT HOME

So they are, my apologies. Very embarrassing. I put it down to old age, opening day excitement and stupidity!
If you're still interested in my ideas; the home favourite's relevant stats drop to 70%, so the bet becomes less attractive from that point of view. As for pure analysis, Millwood doesn't do well at Tropicana Field and stunk it up in Spring training. In contrast, Tampa Bay have been ripping it up. With Roberts banged up, if I was to bet the game, I'd probably still take the Rays on the runline, but maybe not for the full £2. |

Millwood has a 6+ ERA in Tampa, where as Shields is usually an ace at home. There are worse 1.5 shots about.
|
|
By:
My ridiculously complicated spreadsheet predicted Tampa to be 1.51 so I agree the odds are about right. Minnesota are my bet of the night.

By:
rays look too short to me and have laid 1.5
|
|
By:
Have to be on the Rays even at that price ....agree that Shields should provide a commanding performance at home

Evening, just laid some balt at 1.3s, far too low with whats to come pitching wise!
boom red sox lead 3-1! |
|
By:
what a chance gone there for balt to bust it open
|
|
By:
2nd and 3rd, 0 outs and nothing lol
|
|
By:
Thats when i laid swindon, with men on 2nd and 3rd reckon at 4-0 they should be 1.25 so not giving away to much esp if they didn't score ;-)

|
By:
yeah i wasn't watching market tut

By:
3-1
|
|
By:
rays lucky that these home runs have only cost them 1run a time. Think they will still win this. Yankees lead the redsox 4-3 now.
|
|
By:
Ok now I've given up on the -1.5. Thought TB might have had a chance after that last inning but that's probably just done it in. :(
|
|
By:
95 pitches and Shields is still in there! Get him out!
|
|
By:
2-3
