Tell you what, lets nix this idea. You are a friend and they are your favorite team in any sport so I'm sure you'll be happy just having them win, as I would the Red Sox, whom I have never layed a single dollar on in my life.

If you shop around and really want to make some kind of bet, I'm sure you can find slightly higher than 2/1. Theres a lot of people on here who bet sports so maybe they know a good place. I wouldnt wait too long though. Their odds may shrink.

Tim they are gonna go down in odds. Matsui's successful return indicates that by playoff time he will be fully tuned up. I don't care what kind of pitching staff the other teams have, nobody is gonna shut this lineup down!!!!!!
CF Damon
SS Jeter
RF Abreu
3B A Rod
1B Giambi
LF Matsui
2B Cano
C Posada
Dh(take your pick between Melky Cabrera, Bernie Williams, or Sheffield if healthy by then)

Look at that hitting. I mean, if you are a pitcher you are gonna have a nervous breakdown. WHere exactly are the outs? I mean you are pitching to a guy like Cano in the 7th slot, with Posada and a DH like Melky or Sheffield behind that.

I just don't see how anyone is gonna beat a lineup like that.
