bmags Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Since we have nothing else to talk about, anyone want to explain what the spreads on baseball mean? Does that mean you are betting sox win by 2 runs or more, or angels at 1 run or win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a huge gambler myself, but I believe that means you need to bet $131 to win $100 (as opposed to +131 which would mean you'd have to bet $100 to win $131).

pettie4sox Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 (edited) There are two types of baseball bets. Moneyline and spread. That -131 is most likely money line with the -1 1/2 runs being spread (meaning they have to win by two runs or more) I would guess the odds be at like +165 for the spread.

muddywolfjohnson Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Time for Sale to break out of the slump. I hope really hope we don't get swept again in this series and can build up some confidence for the weekend against the cubs. since it's already 0.45 a.m. in europe i better get to bed, avoid the score all day long tomorrow, hurry home after work and watch the re-run. Go Sox! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 @scottmerkin Tyler Flowers was pulled from game yesterday due to dehydration and got a bag of fluid after. He's back in the lineup today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Sale has a 4.29 ERA in the first inning, best on the staff by over a run. Rodon's 5.40 ERA is the only other under 6.00. #coophasthemready Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go Sox! The game tonight is pretty meaningless, so Sale should throw a gem. He only chokes in the big games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only chokes in the big games. You are thinking of Jake Peavy. Not too many big games have existed during the Sale era. What about Smarj? I'm not sure what qualifies as a big game for an organization like this. Most of the guys they acquire are from losing organizations so they probably don't know what a "big game" is.

caulfield12 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 (edited) Only have to beat the Angels seven in a row to get to 1/2 game back, haha. Lefties somehow hitting .289 against Sale this season. No way that should be a double....Trout was pulling up at first.
