Question for total guru's

[yomonte]

Has any total been set at 11 this year. I haven't noticed any. If so, did it go ov or un. Don't quote me on this, but I don't think any went over last year and the Det/Cle tomorrow is the first one this year I have noticed. I kept track of totals last year but do not have the time this year.

you mean not counting the ones TNP's guy has at Under31 +124??

LOL FF. And dat bitch wonders why he ain't welcome here. Last year I got lazy at the end but not one that opened at 11 went over. I've looked for it all year and this is the first one I've noticed. Both have scored 11 by themselves this series. The books are a funny sort. Sometimes you can feel why they made a line knowing everyone is going to side with the obvious when there is no obvious. I can't help but lean to the under.

i don't ever remember a baseball line set at 11 that wasn't at coors field.....but i dont' pay much attention to day to day baseball let alone totals...just don't remember ever seeing anyone play an 11 total.....11 is pretty high when you think about it....7-5 or worse means either some really bad starters or really bad bullpens. It is really hard i would think to hit an 11 total if you got good pitching out of one of the teams.....if a guy gives up only 2 or 3 runs you gotta get 9 or 10 from the other team to win.....9-3, 10-2....dunno.....who knows...i only follow sports that use aluminum bats

Three or four years ago, Coors Field was getting totals every game at 13-15. And going over almost everytime. Last year, 11 was probably the highest and did not go over. But I quit keeping track of it towards the end of the season. Like you said, 11 is a tough #. I think the books throwed out that # cause of the two 11 scores by each of them this series. I think the over is a sucker bet and the books know it.
