    538 giving Dodgers 40% chance in 'World' Series is highest I have seen, or could imagine.

    That's probably as good a guestimation as anything else...
    What are they saying in Vegas?

    Bayes’ Theorem?
    Quantified Belief?

    Craven always "said he said' that betting is a good method of data processing.....(or obfuscating sensor technology.)

    I'll buy 40-percent, but still plan to root for LA.
    They could use the good press....but that begs another question.....

    Which city would riot the most peacefully following a "World" Series win???

    I'm not a betting man. I just enjoy the game for what it is....

    You throw the ball
    You hit the ball
    You catch the ball

    I’m a fan of the team depicted ;).

    It would be nice if fantasy matches reality (y).

    Too late to win money on World-Series bets. Canny pre-season bets on BOS or LAD would have done better, but time's arrow...

    Better enough to pay for a seat in LA, Oct. 30, to see Red Stockings finish the job. That being my prediction (today :(). But a Series it will be, and with 8 runs per game scored in League Championships, perhaps meriting attention.

    Will Chris Sale wear his ring on a finger, or ???

    Ryu reminds me of Yu Darvish, last year. :mad: :eek: (Now Yu is the Cub's problem.)
    The Dodger pitching has been shaky all year. They need a complete overhaul, if that's even possible.

    rye getting a lot of props around here.

    sale is an unknown quantity, keeps going to the hospital with stomach problems. guy is 6'-6" and a hundred pounds or something.
    and that's on top of his post season history.

    price has had one good starting performance, we'll see.
