After guaranteeing my fan base nothing but handicapping success, I backed up that pledge with an impressive 7-3 win by the Cardinals last night. Furthermore, at 7-0 in the 4th inning, this game was never in doubt.
Tonight's action features several intriguing matchups. One game I am not releasing but have a strong contrarian feel on involves the New York Mets. With Mike Pelphrey on the hill (where he has been god awful during the past six weeks), the Mets find themselves facing Colorado Rockie ace, Ubaldo Jimenez and his gaudy 17-2 record. With the backdrop looking so ominous for the Mets, why then is the line only +140 for the Mets? Here is the deal: the Rockies are 4-22 in their last 26 games versus the Mets in New York and the Mets boast an impressive 33-19 home record. With a majority of sports handicappers and Met's fans thinking this team is finished, this game has Mets victory written all over it. With Pelphrey's recent pitching woes, what would be more torturous for a Mets fan than to see him pitch a gem tonight?
Phillies even money over the Dodgers. I could care less about pitching matchups in this game. Here is all you need to know: Philly owns the Dodgers, having beaten them in the playoffs the past two years, in convincing fashion. I expect nothing less tonight and at even $ I think this is a gift.
