Is this something to keep an eye on?

After their win tonight, the Brewers have beaten the Pirates 16 straight times. 16

Brewers only -105 tomorrow, albeit with Suppan pitching, but 16 in a row against one team is really good and -105 a nice price for it.

Also makes the think at the same time that -105 is not much respect for a team that has beaten another 16 times consecutively. Just curious what you guys think, keep riding the Brewers or buck the trend?

that's why I played them tonight. I'm playing them tomorrow, too. I don't care who is pitching. Pitt will find a way to lose that game.

Ride the trend. It only stops once.

well food for thought..... stl didnt own washington as the brew does pitty.... they were short line -115 on saturday and even if pujols was in the lineup it wouldve been no more than -134..... a nobody had shut them out for 5 or 6 innings on their way to a national win......

many might be thinking of the same thing for this game but i would ride the brew crew till the wheels fell off bro..... win or lose ,you will be on the right side with mil .... one other thing.... suppan is a pitcher who pitches in streaks which usually runs 3 -4 games ..... 3 decent starts heading into tomorrow...bol

also .... im still riding the dodgers till they lose at home

he is pitching alot better this season
they say he was sick during his first start
since then he has been pretty impressive.

dammit dan, had to come and ruin a good thing for me lol

i actually don't look at certain lines as "too good to be true" in baseball as much as i do other sports because one swing of the bat can change absolutely everything, just so much can happen

i think i'll ride the brewers, 16 in a row why not? if i lose i lose on a team that has beaten their opponent 16 straight times and was still only -105
