Definitely didn’t need more pitching help.

Arraez 0 for 13. Everything is fine.

More good news: Sixto FB average was 92 topping out at 94.

[fish16]

The closing # was -108 both sides. Keep reinforcing how square you are, though!

Lmao I honestly don’t even know what you’re arguing about at this point. Not sure how that makes me square. I gave you stats about how meaningless being a favorite in baseball is and you somehow think you showed me and thought you were all hard like the little bitch you are.


“You will get called out on it.” Oh no!!!!! The horror

We’ll always have that spring though

Wow you mean it’s actually possible for Sanchez to hit lefties if you give him opportunities?

Your reading comprehension is brutal day in and day out (just ask lou).

You said, "At least we were the favorite!"

I said "no, you're wrong, both sides were -108" (illustrating clearly the Marlins were not the favorite).

Looking forward to your next fabrication!

Things are grim for the Marlins and the forum.

Ballpark will probably be packed tomorrow, Bruce!

Marlins were -120 on espnbet which is what their box score displays. I wasnt actively looking at lines, but your comprehension is so top notch that you cant see that im simply making fun of you for thinking youre adding anything impactful by posting the moneyline for an individual baseball game in april.

Also, the pure irony of you thinking you're not lighting your money on fire with baseball money lines while then displaying a pick'em with both teams odds juiced in favor of the bookmaker is chefs kiss brilliant. Do whatever you want, i like betting on sports too, it's fun, but if you think you're going to make a big profit over the long haul you're pretty fucking dumb. I was making a throwaway comment yesterday but since you wanted to get into it, at least you do so while displaying perfect dumbassery completely illustrating my point. You generally have to hit at between 55-60% clip at -110 odds to make money. Theres a reason those casinos are so nice. The numbers are stacked in their favor.

"please don't barf up nonsense here. You will get called out on it"

sixto's fastball was a full 4.7 MPH slower on average than 2 days ago.

Thanks for bringing up something that only applies to NFL when we are talking about MLB sports betting!

Dropping it for the sake of the forum. Nick is right,

Apologies to all that had to endure that back and forth.

that has nothing to do with a particular sport whatsoever (NBA and NFL spreads are most often those odds but obviously any sport can have those odds as well depending on the game/type of bet, as evidenced by todays marlins game being a pick'em). that's simply an example of basic statistics and odds and gives you an idea of generally how successful you have to be to be profitable betting sports. You're not going to beat the sportsbook. Especially in a random ass sport like baseball. It's why you havent quit your day job to go do it for a living.

Given the odds and winning percentage of favorites in baseball, you would be wildly unprofitable betting solely baseball favorites due to the complete clusterfuck of randomness that the baseball regular season is. Which was my original point.

It's also great that you just cut out the points where you look dumb when it suits you

cabrera going for 3 innings/50 pitches in jacksonville tomorrow. Garrett shouldnt be too far behind him. I'd guess if cabrera has no issues he has 2 more rehab outings before being back. maybe 3 since he was never fully built up in spring anyways.

Its kind of hand in hand with bad ownership no?

Fort Lauderdale native Michael Taylor looks pretty good this series IMO. 1/$4. But Garcia?
