Yeah they pounced on Cole early. That 52x er is definately a nice play. They pretty much are facing one of the best now in the rays. If they get by the rays good chance at the series. Still think the dodgers or San Fran are the teams to beat. Those 2 teams are seriously stacked with ballers. Dodgers have to get by st Louis tonight but if they do the dodgers San Fran series will be the series to watch.
Thanks! It's my virgin season sort of following and learning the ropes en route, but yeah, they are rightly so on bottom tier of teams left for this, I was saying much earlier they probably peaked too early and are now just purging all their losses, I don't know well enough physicality of the sport (if fatigue plays a part like football does) but I'm hoping by the time they're called on to play again they're up for it.
Dodgers the ones to watch eh? Already got past St Louis.
In particular, MLB Baseball is a special, rare, nostalgic, family, generational sport, it must be that unique sport where sometimes you follow it because yes, even if you don't like it ... but something in your childhood due to influence " familiar "or" moment "leads you to follow a certain team.
I have to say that definitely betting 6 months in advance is the best example of the difference between fan and gambler.
I totally get it. I can't recall where on this forum I discussed about what I always knew or heard about Baseball from pop culture (grew up in the 90s and many movies had people referencing Babe Ruth and BoSox never winning after that sale (then of course FSG also bought the club I support in England Liverpool). That's a faint familiarity and association for me, but it'll do!
That said, I always take pre-season future outright on footie. Possible to be both fan and gambler no?
@buwaytress, that's a nice future ticket to be holding
Thanks! "Regretting" not putting more on it
