I think the Pirates are pumped up for this game and upset the Cardinals

Quantum_Leap · Answer

So that&#39;s it. Just take the team that&#39;s jacked.So the young UCLA grad will go into Busch and pitch a shutout? Seems the only way the Pirates steal this treasure is if Cole puts up 9 donuts. Pirates won&#39;t get more than 2 off big, burly Adam.

you think they&#x27;re pumped up for the game?? where did you get this inside info??

MasterMG · Answer

Ya screw it, the Cards line just keeps getting higher and higher. Don&#x27;t want them to win anyway. Pitt and &#x2B;money it is. Didn&#x27;t Adam Ace lose game 5 last year? and the year before or something like that

I think they are pumped just cause the haven&#39;t won a playoff in like what 30 some years!! And now is their chance!!!!

TheAnswer · Answer

Jody Mercer, Andrew Mccutchen, and Russell Martin are batting over 4.00 against Wainwright. The rest of the team is at a sub-par average. Cardinals have only seen Cole once and other then Molina could not figure him out. I see it being a close game. I give a slight advantage to the cardinals being at home. I will be staying away from this game. I am a hometown Pittsburgh kid and will be routing for the Battling Buccos

MasterMG · Answer

This is no lock for the Cards. Kershaw for the Dodgers at like - 250 the other night was barely a winner. This line is low. Pitt has damn good shot... Vegas says so.

This will likely be close but I don&#x27;t see Cole pitching as well as he did the first time around. Being a Mets fan and how close they were in 2006, I hate the Cardinals, but Wainwright is a hell of a pitcher and usually pitches very well. I saw one game this year about a month or two ago where he gave up like 9 runs in 2 innings which was probably the worst start of his career. Other than that game he&#x27;s had just 2 starts this year where he went less than 6 innings. I trust him in the spot tonight. Cardinals just have more hitting and more experience. Honestly, anyone taking the Pirates tonight is just going with their heart. I can see a team like Oakland taking out Detroit in a short series, but see a lot of people taking Oakland to knock out Boston...once again that is with their heart, not head. Boston&#x27;s lineup blows Oakland out of the water and their pitching is better too so I don&#x27;t really understand how people think they&#x27;re gonna be able to get it done. I went out to the Wild Card game last week in Pitt and had a feeling it would come to this point, but at the end of the day, St. Louis is a better ball club and I think that will show today.

line is moving up around 160, got in last night at -152 but this is no lock.  in the end, i have to take the pitcher who has been through the battles for many postseasons and the home team.

buckubad · Answer

its one game so you can say its a heart bet at the start of the series but one game with &#x2B;145 against a team that has scored 6 runs in the last 3 games is hardly a heart bet.  wain doesn&#x27;t blow cole away and neither does st l off over pitt off.  im on pitt &#x2B;1(-108) and over 6 -130.  this pitt team is a reflection of hurdle, I think they are more than up to the task

wildcat95 · Answer

agreed, i love hurdle.  bucs are hungry too.  don&#x27;t like the &#x2B;1 bet, rather have paid -160 for &#x2B;1.5.  you are likely for a push.

Ds0589 · Answer

They&#x27;re both good pitchers and Cole is likely the future ace of the Pirates staff and is gonna be around for a long time. Any time there&#x27;s good pitching you can never count someone out which is why baseball&#x27;s such a good and unpredictable game, but if I tell you, you can have either Matt Holliday, Carlos Beltran and Matt Carpenter or Neil Walker, Andrew McCutchen, and Marlon Byrd, you will go with the former. The Pirates main chance is because of Cole pitching, but Cole is young so you never know but in the end, it&#x27;s the hitting that will fail them, just like it likely will with the Athletics at some point this postseason.

buckubad · Answer

I guess imo holliday, beltran, carpenter and wainwright don't add up to -155 according to my math book. but hey that's why vegas can afford the huge electricity bill. we'll know tonight.
