ROCKIES(Francis) +1.5 (-110) over Boston(Beckett)---------I dont really want to bet against either of these offenses or either of these pitchers, but I think Boston is favored by too much. Im thinking Boston -162 (and its -220). Boston got 16 hits and 5 runs in 12 innings vs Westbrook. That's not that great against him. If Drew is gonna start hitting and continue to hit......maybe the Rockies are in trouble(we'll see what he does against Francis if he starts). And yes, Boston rocked the lhp Sabathia and the lhp Perez in Cleveland's bullpen.....and Francis is, of course, an lhp. However, Francis has looked very impressive in the postseason and at this price, he's playable. And the other thing, the reason Im betting this, is that Beckett faced Colorado in the regular season (5inn, 10h, 6runs and only 1k) and got hit. Francis in that game? He shutout the Red Sox over 5 innings, giving up 7 hits(Lose 13-1.......yeah, i knew i shouldnt have bet this. Not only did Francis get destroyed, MORALES got murdered. And I thought he was gonna be starting one of these games......probably not after that. As much as I disrespect Schilling, Im not touching the Rockies again until they show up with something)
