  1. They don't always end up with 50-50 on each game. They move the lines and odds to try and even it up. They can't lose, if it ends up exactly even, but it rarely ends up exactly even, and my point is they likely win more of the uneven games than not, since too many bettors bet with their hearts not their minds. Also, moving the line allows for a chance they lose both bets. Say the line opens at 3 1/2 and moves to 4 1/2. They could lose, if the game ends up at 4, if more people took the fave at 3.5 and the underdog at 4.5.
  2. His age and projections. Yes, I'd pay him more than JD, even with inflation. Papi is another story and never was near the highest paid 1B/DH in MLB.
  3. Part of the reason they win more than the expected 50% of the games, is precisely because fans play the favorites and home teams more than they should. They know that and set the odds accordingly.
  4. Careful, someone might say you and harmony are the same poster.
  5. Then pay him like the highest paid 1B/DH of all time.
  6. Ouch. That's gonna leave a mark.
  7. This kid is worth the hefty and long investment. DEVERS FOREVERS!
  8. Yes, as injury prone as he is, he's not on opening day.
  9. He might take $27M x whatever, but he'd get more, if he was a FA, right now.
  10. The Yanks are always hyped. I like it that way. We do better as the underdog.
  11. Quite a list to be joining!
  12. How many pitchers are in your "top tier?" 5, 10, ???
  13. I remember a few years back they signed like 3-4 pretty good RP'ers, and I think they all failed. They probably gave up.
  14. WOW! #19. They must believe in Cora magic.
  15. Soxprospects.com's top 10 list vs mine. SP/Mine 1. Casas/ Mayer 2. Mayer/ Casas 3. Yorke/ Yorke 4. Duran/ Bello 5. Bello/ Blies 6. Groome/ Duran 7. Mata/ Walter 8. Blies/ Jordan 9. Walter/ Groome 10. Jordan/ W Gonzalez My 11-25 11. Murphy 12. Mata 13. Winckowski 14. Rafaela 15. Paulino 16. Crawford 17. Binelas 18. McDonough 19. 20. Lugo 21. Seabold 22. Hamilton 23. R Hernandez 24. Koss 25. Hickey (26. Jimenez, 27. Ward)
  16. Sounds about right. Many teams have more questions and concerns than we do.
  17. I wanted to hear harmony's spin.
  18. LOL Why does BTV have Souza worth 0?
  19. BTV allowed the M's to clear their OF with this trade: Dalbec & Lugo for Haniger & Sewald
  20. He'll grab the best off the scrap heap or take on some salary for something better, maybe.
  21. Yes, he can, but he likely won't.
  22. Could be just the type Bloom swoops on.
  23. His health is always the biggest question mark, and nobody ever knows the answer to that Q.
  24. White Sox deal Kimbrel to LAD for AJ Pollock. Reports say the Red Sox were also inquiring about the RH'd Pollock, Makes me wonder, if Bloom is working on a deal, as teams look to trim their rosters.
  25. Like we can't replace Ralphie, if Shaw sputters?
