Braves are 11-0 in their last 11 home games.... Everyone seems to be cray about Dan Haren's last-out win over Angels--but he was miserable the five games previous, losing them all. (Even a blind squirrel finds an acorn every now and then.) Of course, the Braves' starter, Mike Minor, has been a train-wreck lately, too. Still, I think odds favoring Braves (-126) might be a tell.
Since I live inSoCal, I pay partic attention to locals, and I have to smirk at C.J. Wilson being -200 at home vs. Phils tonight--and I don't even know how Phillies have been doin' ately. But CJ has been downright Double-A the last month--just hideous. (I'd suggest he focus more on pitching than his nasty TV ads.)
Plus, the Halos have gone majorly south since they dropped 3 of 4 to the Dodgers. I can smell at least 1.5+ plus on Phillies, and I wouldn't touch Haren with a 10-foot-pole never mind buy his dandruff goop. Just saying.
P.S. Who else thinks Oakland and Lester are too much of a slam-dunk. Yes. he's been CyYoung-worthy since joining A's and even beat Royals twice since his move, but other guy on bump, Guthrie, ain't no bottom-feeder, just threw his first CG, and the Royals have won 8 in a row and are playing in their friendly confines--still miss Harry Caray! Can you smell a trap-ola?....
Stay thirsty, my friends! Remember, The Most Int. Man has never said, "My bad." (Maybe I will later tonight, but I got to give my two cents--I still have $3.26 on me--and hoping for more if my instincts come through!)
