rangers +113 1/1.13
Wilson (to the Yanks post-post?) had another solid season but hasn't excelled this post-season. He's given up 6 HR in his 3 starts, allowing 3 then none then 3. Cards have been utilizing the HR quite a bit the past month or so, including post-season, so the under 7.5 seems about as appealing as voting for another liar. 8 hours ago word was strong wind out to left-center and now it's allegedly strong left-to-right, which might benefit a lefty by some twisted analysis; weather reports need to be taken with a grain of salt this far in advance--even the night before. Cards lineup has seen little of Wilson, though the same could be said of most of the texsticks vs Carpenter. Speaking of Chris, he finished the season very strong and was one of the primary reasons they're even in the postseason. He's had 2 mediocre starts, so far, and 1 beauty (that was a classic, especially for us Torontonians, what with former-Jays 1st rounders Carpenter and Halladay facing off...didn't touch but was tempted by the under (oops) and woulda-shoulda cashed for that double-gem 1-0). I figured that tex would be the slight dog and seems worthwhile as they have the better O and should benefit from last year's experience. Wanted to try the Series price on tex but I was stunned to see it in the -150's (-164, last I saw), especially considering the game #1 price. Might drop to evenish with a Carp W but if Wilson doesn't contribute then tex's chances greatly diminish. Cards decent vs L this season but have struggled vs in recent years.
Football treating me better than this postseason so energy mostly spent elsewhere.
