tough one - i might let it ride, but if you put $10 on the Braves at whatever the line is, around +165, you'll win either way.

Since there's been such a long delay, are the original starters still scheduled to start? And is the line still available at books?
If the starters are still going, you never know how they'll react to the long delay. You definitely have the better pitcher with the Giants, but some of that may be negated due to the delay

GL either way

LOL great minds think alike - I added a bit about the pitchers too - its hard to say how pitchers will react to the delay - were they all warmed up ready to go, or was the delay anticipated? Since its not a "normal" game, the normal pre game warmup stuff is different, i may play it safe.

agree - pitchers are finnicky people - throw them off their routine and its hard to say what will happen, even with someone as talented at lincecum - if nothing else, i think it cuts the gap between him & kamikaze down some
