Cubs/Pirates Under

[johnnyonthespot]

The ones I really feel good about are few and far between, but this is one of them. Couldn't believe it when I saw that the total on this was 12!

Zambrano is still not very well known across the country, but he will be soon. Right now he is probably the Cubs most consistent starter. Only danger is if they get to him real early, when he tends to struggle a little with his control and/or overthrow the ball. If he gets out of the 1st and 2nd, more times than not he'll just mow them down 3rd - 6th, and he very rarely gives up the long ball. He held the Braves to 1 run in 7 innings in his first outing on the road, and I see no reason why he can't duplicate that today.

Fogg is also a good young pitcher, and I just don't see the Cubs O exploding again after getting 8 yesterday.

5 Units

Yeah, how could I have not seen the 2 jacks by Michael Barrett coming?

I was right about Zambrano, but Fogg just had nothing today.

i play over any cub total that is over 8.5 and play under any that are under 8.5.this has made me several units per yr.i pass at 8.5

lowell, you have the right idea. FYI, if anyone doesnt know, usually when a cubs total looks too good to be true at 11.5 or 12 for an under, it is NOT, usually the winds blowing like 15mph out to left or right field, hence a LOT of dingers and runs, The oddsmakers know what the hell they're doin, so trust em, I wouldnt be on any unders where its more than like 10, and check the wind, when the total is 7 and everyone thinks O is easy, Id think lot of times the winds blowing in, Vegas isnt stupid fellas, just keep that in your head, Im sure most of the people on here knew anyway at least the experienced ones, but some probably didnt

got burned doing this the other day when total was 8 ,maddox pitching and wind blowing in.think pitt won 13-3.same thing in nba with det or san ant.when tota is low it goes under and when it is higher it often goes over.
