Full day of baseball.

Giants at Cubs.

O/U line at 9.0 (-105), but team totals:

Giants 4.5 (U -170)
Cubs 6.0 (U -155)

Team total adds to 10.5, and O/U line is 9.0

Wind out to Rgt, out to Ctr, 15mph.

I am waiting 2-3 mins before game starts to see the wind conditions.

I think Cubs here can score 7-8 runs, Giants MUST at least get a run or two here.

Yanks are 4-1 after getting shut out. I think the O/U is either 1-4 or 0-5.

I will ALWAYS, ALWAYS play an O/U line of 9.0 when winds is blowing at least double digits at Wrigley.

ALWAYS.

11.5 O/U (what is was yesterday) is a different line than 9.0.

yea but how in the hell do you know which way the wind is blowing once the game starts....like i stated previously the flags were howling out yesterday and then on a dime they reversed out of the freakin blue.

 

my point is you may as well flip coins if you are going try to predict wind movement at that place most the time.

Yesterday was yesterday, buddy

Today is a different day. Different line. Different wind, Different pitchers. Different approach. Different scenario.

Different. Different. Different.

No clue.  I fell for weather.com yesterday.  I'd like to believe that MLB.com is up-to-date, but I have no proof of that.  Wish my friend were at the game today.  Could've used his info about the wind yesterday for sure.
