Red Sox weak lineup

Red Sox weak lineup liked this one last night Seattle +165, has not moved down much Uncle Fister has pitched well, negating Lester edge red sox mediocre road team and a big favorite here which is wrong lineup is weak too Scutaro 2B Kalish CF Martinez C Ortiz DH Beltre 3B Lowrie SS Reddick RF Nava LF Anderson 1B

I think playing out the string has set in there too. they are not going to the playoffs

I agreed. I thought the line was attractive on Fister. The lineups definitely influence lines and results now. AZA came in today with 3 of their top hitters rested. I'm sure the Cards weren't too happy about that. There actually was some sharp money on the Red Sox in this game as I did bet +1.5 on a reverse run line just following the money. My own handicapping would have thought Seattle was good and if I had gotten +1.5 Even I would have bet them. The best I can say why there was sharp money is that (1) The probability that Lester would pitch well is extremely high in ball park like Safeco although his track record isn't overwhelming there but without knowing anything more I'm just surprised it isn't well above average. He has pitched well his last 2 starts and he's from the state of Washington. (2) Seattle on some huge streak I think challenging a long time record of not scoring more than 3 runs in their own ball park for 15 games? 16? Not sure. Their offense is atrocious. The over/under on their team total Over 2.5-120 at Greek I think. Haven't read the review but I guess the under 2.5 is a winner. (3) Fister more solid early in the year than the last 2 months. (4) Red Sox just not quitters. Francona doesn't expect a run at playoff spot but still some hitters there playing well. I think it was good value and I think paying attention to the lineups was great too. But I've learned that the money was telling us that the Red Sox might still be a good bet. Just trying to give the other side of why the line really went the other way.

it went down about 8 cents, it didnt move the other way. I liked it, still think it was a good bet, it didnt work. thanks for your post, very thoughtful
