Oakland -187 ML RL-1½ +115

Looks to me like Vegas is looking for a TB cover but doesn't want to pay out + money.

the odds only matter when you lose. Take the line and don't lay 1.5 runs. If they lose outright it doesn't matter anyway becdause you lost. Never bet trying to save money by losing.

I agree with pshinnamon and will only lay runs if I'm getting +160 or better.


"How bout RL-1?"

I would make a money line bet for twice the amount of your run line wager.

Why is the TB -1.5 -109 the same as Washington?

That is the difference


One Home.. One away.



If Washington goes ahead by one in final inning, its finished.


Tampa Bay goes ahead by one in their final at bat, they'll still get their three outs.
