I thought the wager was the same and Zona was -113. Seattle was +108. Does Key's number he posts "to win" or "risk"? I'm confused. Thank you

Seattle - $423 x $1.08 = $456.84 + 423 = 879.84
Arizona - $423 = 0

$846 = $879.84

$33.84 net profit @tgal
Sip on that plus money honey!

If you go to write-ups just below the picks he has written to take Phillie to -126,+105 is a bit better than that so go for it.

Key does not fudge his record,being human sorta,he can make mistakes,but as we see another friend did the math.

Astros have had a pitching change, not sure if that changes Keys thoughts on the game or not.

Looks like there's a pitching change for the Angels.   Heaney is pitching instead of Shoemaker.

No loss, small profit. If you "add the juice" on your favorites, then you lost.

Pitching change in the Stros game - Shoemaker out.

Since I ALWAYS specify pitchers, any pitching change automatically cancels the bet. Anyone that bets baseball "action" is foolish. If there is a pitching change and you have an "action" bet the bookie sets the new odds, no choice on your part, and he does so after seeing how people were playing the original line. That is akin to handing the landlord a blank check for the rent, and trusting him to fill in what he thinks is fair. 

I will go have a look at the pitching changes and get back asap.

I don't see any official pitching changes at all at 3 different sources and Heritage has my bets unchanged, and I always specify pitchers. They would list a bet as cancelled if there were a pitching change.

My Houston bet is still live on Pinnacle, too, who also would've voided me if either pitcher was scratched.
