For someone who didn't go to the Pete Rose School for Baseball Gambling, I have managed to go my entire life without seeing their gambling lines:

 

The Cubs are the underdogs (+125) at New York on Thursday.

Other teams are really jumping on this 'pitcher batting 8th' stuff, huh.

[DiamondMind]

Bryant must be hungover again :(

 

Im fine with giving people the day off, whatever. But why not Addy 7th and herrera 9th?

[UMFan83]

There was an article saying Maddon wanted to work in some rest for Russell and Bryant. Russell was last night, Bryant today.

 

Either that or Bryant has been sent to the minor leagues because of his struggles.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Because 9th is more important.

[UMFan83]

Now I'm DEFINITELY selling those tickets.

I thought Maddon was a tad more pragmatic
