Who you got for TUESDAY?
Marlins offense starting to dry up without Stanton
Giants bats seemed to come alive last few games
Jays offense built to mash lefties, hit Eduardo hard last time
Estrada in a really good groove right now
No clue how you make Cubs a favorite in this spot. They are on their longest losing Streak of the season (5 games), while Mets have won 4 straight. Cubs are below .500 on the road, while Mets are strong (29-11) at home. Cubs swept the Mets earlier this season in a four-game home series, which I'm sure the Mets do not forget.
I love me some Rubby, but the Dodgers have seen him twice this year (both in LA) and it has not been pretty. On the other hand, Frias has started twice against Arizona this season (both in LA) and given up a total of 1 earned run. Will the change in venue help Rubby/hurt Frias? Rubby in better form now, but Frias has been a good road/night starter all year. Lean under, but not sure what to do here yet.
Thanks for response GW. Most would agree the Cubs have the better lineup, but if the team with the better lineup always won our job would be a lot easier. Plus, Cubs lineup - while much more talented - is also very young and some of those young guys are struggling right now and prob looking forward to the break. In any event, I doubt these teams finish the season more than 5 games apart (if not less) so don't buy into the Cubs being that much better. Plus, Mets in weaker division and prob have more realistic chance at the playoffs (although a long shot for both). Anything could happen, but I'll take my chances with the Mets tonight.
Cubs 11 runs last 6 games.
Montgomery coming off balls-out game against his former team and due to come back to earth....Kennedy is in better form - I'll take SD at home
Ariz looks like a live dog at home tonight
Phil Hughes first start at Cincy.... extreme fly ball pitcher in high humidity and slight wind blowing out.... leaning Cincy TT over

You would be playing a Cokin free play which has been death fot around 5 games.Montgomery coming off balls-out game against his former team and due to come back to earth....Kennedy is in better form - I'll take SD at home

I'm a notorious Royals nonbeliever, but they're dogged way too often for way too much.
Dallas with ump 3.14 ERA based on 14.1
Have to give Houston a little the best of the pens.
I really did not like using Dallas in the 9th inning last game and running his pitch up a lot with a high tension 9th. So far not seeing any real reason for playing KC although it does help them to be using a lefties.
Erasmo has sucked off 6+. 65 innings ERA of 6.92
this tampons line now qualifies as completely insane
still probably too high for me to play Erasmo
