Mets 18/1 ? Why ?

[kermit16]

Marquis won't be on the playoff roster. And you can do worse than Lilly as your 4th pitcher. Mets have no answer for Dempster. Harden will be the Cubs 3rd pitcher.

Kermit - Take a look at the White Sox. Got +1500 today at BetJamaica.

Decent wager on the White sox at 15/1 although I actually like the Mets at 18/1 even better. I hit a Royal today so I bought a little more 18/1 on the Mets. Good Luck ! Since I have got stiffed by BOS books { all 3 of them ** and Royal, I prefer to put my futures bets down here in Vegas where there is no chance of getting stiffed or slow payed ! I am actually more of a Cub fan so I have some $$ on them and I love their team this year.

18/1 looks like a good bet to me. They should make the playoffs and once there, anything can happen in a 5/7 game series. The cubs are the faves but you could argue that the Mets are the 2nd best team in the NL.

They have the deepest starting rotation in the league but their bullpen is pathetic.

Brewers are slightly deeper.
Edge to CC-Sheets-Para over Santana-and aging Pedro-and inconsistent but improving Perez.

I think Pedro is shot, by the way. He is no better than an average 3-4 starter at this point

Right now I would call Pedro and Perez the Mets number 4 & 5 starters behind Santana, Maine and Pelfrey. However with 4 starters with era below 4 and perhaps the best pitcher in baseball in Santana, I feel 18/1 is a very good wager. It is fair to note that since Pedro returned from his injury, He has pitched very well but I'm not sure how long it will be before He is back on the DL.
