Game 5 line is a joke

Question

No way should Cole be - 150 on the road after getting lit up like a Christmas tree in game 1. Based on intrinsic value alone Mad Max getting plus money at home is a must play.

Yeah lets make lines based on a 1 game sample, and ignore the fact that Cole is arguably the best pitcher in the game and that Astros are the better team.

Nah fam, this line is pretty much adjusted comparing to the GM1. That line was a joke with &#x2B;175 (against Scherzer smh), this was accurate af with &#x2B;125, Stros are the better team (pitching, hitting, bullpen, coaching) and at home. This should be the line at GM1, too.

Perhaps Cole is suffering from enlightened self interest? His agent who will get a healthy percentage from the free agency contract coming in the off season might have told him: "Why risk blowing out your arm and family's future for a team that won't sign you anyway?" No doubt his wife has chimed in with similar comments, so they are cosigning his BS.

These modern day athletes with the way things are structured are all about I, me, and mine.

I see Cole being lit up once again... an_burn_money A quote that may live in infamy but I will take my chances. Cole floats that ball up around their soup coolers...

A) the Astros are NOT at home this gameB) Cole around -145 is no more than a home-road adjustmentC) Books projected about the same rough probability and money has confirmed itOdds and probability do not completely re-define themselves based on one small sample size.
