Did they release the starting line-ups? Maybe Boston is sitting some of their top line players?

No idea Van but it makes me glad that I got the Twins at +115 before it dipped.

That cant be it can it?

To go from a -125 all morning to a -105 in an instant because of Ellsbury?

Very strange.....

It would be very unusual for a  semi-mature line to jump 20 cents on an express train unless there is something up.....

Even steam would make it move 3 or 4 cents at a time....  Not 20 cents in a blink.

Here's the Sox Lineup...No word on the Twins lineup as of yet tho.

Here's the lineup for today's 1:10 p.m. game at Target Field vs. the Twins. Jacoby Ellsbury again will not start after suffering a rib injury in a collision with third baseman Adrian Beltre on Sunday, and David Ortiz remains in the lineup despite a slow start to the season.

Red Sox (3-4)
Marco Scutaro SS
Dustin Pedroia 2B
Victor Martinez C
Kevin Youkilis 1B
David Ortiz DH
Adrian Beltre 3B
J.D. Drew RF
Mike Cameron CF
Jeremy Hermida LF

Suspect someone close to the team knows the line-up and is cashing in...my guess is either Pedroia or Youk is sitting...but thats pure speculation

If this is a joke, it went over my head - if it is serious - can you explain?

in stock trading (this may not be much different) you can have a high bid at a certain price and nothing below it. if someone takes out the entire bid, the bid collapses down 10 cents or so or to where ever there may be more money lined up to buy at a certain price

this may explain matchbook but not others

The Koshers are a large betting syndicate.  They move lines like this regularly.
