If he would have came out in the 5th, he could have pitched in game 4 if the Rox steal the next two or something. Even if he won't pitch until game 5, why risk a fluke injury in the cold after sitting so long? That's what long middle relievers are for.

And as I type this Joe brings up this very point.

The announcers keep hammering this. I don't get it either. He could've easily pitched game 4 if he was pulled in the 5th.

Can someone plz tell me what the ballpark price was if I had bet Boston to sweep?

My local guy didn't have a number, so I just bet Game One, with the intent of parlaying it throughout.

Bodog's lines are terrible, shame you can't play betfair, there's like $300 available at +600 and +590 now

If you trust King Yao's numbers for each game, which were posted in this thread, the true price at the beginning of the series was around +760.

wow the guy who does MLB prop lines at the greek was really asleep at the switch this morning.

example of the carnage: rockies to win series 4-1 opened at +4050. first max bet moves the line to +4000. second max bet moves it to +2250. i guess that woke them up.

i honestly think a savvy bettor could have locked in a 10% no-risk profit by picking off the best lines and arbing them elsewhere.

anyway, to keep this post from going the way of BBV, one decent bet i have no further use for: Red Sox to win series 4-2, +365. 13% edge from where i stand.

edit: already gone. no $100 bills lying around in the street and all that...

edit 2: god bless intertops being too lazy to make their own prop lines, so they copy greek.

best bet is probably boston in 7 at 7-1, 35% edge. boston in 6 at 4-1 offers a 22% edge.

i posted my pre-series numbers at the playoff odds blog.

by the way, i think my big off-season project will be to make the stone-cold best playoff odds site out there. ambitious, but hopefully possible. stay tuned.

Crock,

What do you have for the true line on this prop? SIA has +2500...any value there?
