Philly/Arizona U8
The two offenses have combined for 8 runs in the first 2 games of the series, and i don't foresee things getting any easier tonight. Cliff Lee has been solid as usual, with a 40:7 K:BB and 5 QS in 7 appearances. Trevor Cahill has been a bit more surprising, going 7+ IP in 4 of his last 5 starts, sporting a 2.80 ERA, while the DBacks have gone 6-1 U in his starts. Perhaps he's out-pitching his skills, but I'm going to ride the train til it crashes.
Miami/LAD U7
Two pretty weak offenses (Miami easily last in NL in OPS, LA has scored <= 3 runs in 7 of their last 10) and two pretty solid SP's. Kevin Slowey has 5 QS in his last 6 outings, has a 36:8 K:BB, and the Marlins are 6-1 U in his starts. Meanwhile Ryu has rung up a 48:12 K:BB in only 43 IP while holding opponents to a <.300 OBP. We have a favorable ump (Kulpa 46-25 U the past 3 seasons) and a night game on the West Coast.
Also have to look at Miami +182...I'm certainly not laying -190+ with an LAD team that is 1-9 in their L10 and is already down 14 units on the season.
