"Ace" was relative in terms of performance for the Bama starter. The line was already LSU +275 because Skenes was starting for LSU. But regardless, if you bet LSU to win before the line moved to +350 your payout on a 100k bet would vary by about 5k. So if you already know you are going to lose, bet before the move happens and inflates teh LSU line I guess

That seems incredibly dumb to me.  I'd never bet any significant money on a college baseball game.  Esp conference games.   There really is no such thing as a lock.

Because otherwise, people would have bet on Alabama to beat #1 LSU with Skenes pitching in Alex Box?

What if you're the guy that controls the mound? Don't even need the players to know. Just put in a trash arm you know will get pummeled and say he looked good the other day so you took the chance. Of the big three, baseball would probably be the easiest to throw as the head honcho.

My hunch says the LSU game wasn't the first time something wonky happened at the betting sites. The short time between the lines getting pulled and the firing tells me the authorities were already watching. And dumbfuck may be looking at some federal time to end his career.

Goddamn, what a stupid mother fucker. 

No shit, your payout can't be shit when you're betting on #1 LSU at home, what a $20K bet would pay $30K max?  You're gonna piss away your job AND career for that?

Beyond the basic “how the fuck does the casino know that?”, his accomplice is a fucking idiot to be tied to him in any way shape or form while doing this. Next they will tell us that they went to place the bet using a check from his personal account…

It's never about one payout, it's about consistent guaranteed payouts over seasons. Literally free money once you've got it going.

Watched Alabama beat Vanderbilt tonight 11-2 behind Luke Holman (pitcher who was scratched before the LSU game).    Holman is a stud,  7 inn, 4H, 7K's, 1 walk.

Alabama players looked relaxed and having fun.

Dumb question, but, um... how?

Based solely on me watching a lot of cop shows...

Phone records + Video time stamp + Phone pinging location.

But that info seems like it would have come out way later, unless of course someone was already onto him and monitoring.

And let's be fair, he looks like a guy dumb enough to call his buddy at a casino to let him in on some inside info.

We are pretty banged up and do not have that crucial guaranteed first win starting pitcher this year.  

Aggy skull fucking us right now.  Baseball, but it pisses me off that we have years with great pitching and no hitting and years of great hitting and so-so pitching.    Just like everybody else I guess.

The email from Iowa’s gaming commission came on the heels of the university announcing on Friday that it withheld “some student-athletes” from its upcoming games “due to a potential violation.”

Two Iowa athletics spokespeople did not respond when asked if it pertained to gambling.

“The commission takes the integrity of gaming in the state seriously and is continuing to monitor the situation and will provide any additional information when able,” said Brian Ohorilko, the director of gaming for the state’s commission.

Four players weren’t present this weekend for Hawkeye baseball games, On3Sports’ Kyle Huesmann reported. Two of those players — infielder Keaton Anthony and relief pitcher Jacob Henderson — stood out as ones who regularly play.

Anthony leads the team in on base percentage, batting average, slugging percentage and OPS. Henderson last pitched on May 2 vs. Illinois State — the Hawkeyes’ previous game.

Just like every year, Auburn's not going to do shit.

Spoiling someone’s regional (even though those morons won’t get to the CWS) is still shit.  If anybody can beat anybody on any given day, the way they are playing now increases that chance.

Authorities also found footage of Bohannon, wearing his Alabama uniform, being handed a large bag with a dollar sign on it from the bookie.

Still fuck those guys

 

 

 

Bad guys rallied for a 6-4 win.

We still locked the SEC East, and hopefully have a bye for the tournament, so all is well

Have you ever been to the conference tournament in Hoover? Wondering if it would make a fun weekend year after next.

I never have.   I’m close to retiring in a year or so.  I intent to watch a lot of live sports and RV around like an old fart.

Sounded like a pitchers duel for a bit until the Gator bats woke up.  Been a rough stretch on the Diamond for both baseball & softball of late for UK.  

Aggy seeded #10 at Hoover, so they got us where they want us.  

SEC has decent parity.  Gata does not have a shutdown starter good for an automatic W.   We might be in the losers bracket in our own regional. Still, we can hit the shit out of the ball. Maybe we can get lucky and be on the top side of a few 10 to 8 scores.

UGA getting shut out through 7 by a guy making his 4th start of the year.  I'm looking at South Cackalacky's stats, and the guys who impressed last year during our series in Columbia haven't done much this year, especially the 2 pitchers who shut us down.

UGA's lack of success at baseball is dumbfounding, considering the talent around here.

It's absolutely baffling, especially since the state has the Hope Scholarships for in-state students, so that 11.7 doesn't hit them nearly as hard.

When we join the SEC, I sure fucking hope that we don't have to go to this backwater to play our conference tournament.

 

I mean, there's some WAYYYYYYYY better venues to feature what will be a juggernaut of a conference.

 

I nominate Sugar Land / Houston in a dual bid kind of thing (first games in SL and final 3 or so in Minute Maide) or Nashville or New Orleans ... if the Zephyrs stadium is standing or Arlington (Also could be a dual bid) or lastly Memphis.
