One Dog Today - Maybe Sorry we haven't been around for a while, but we normally take a little break around All-Star break. This still is not a good time to play because of the effect the break has on players. But there is a game today that looks interesting. A cloudy situation over the starting pitching makes it a questionmark.
For much of the year Kip Wells has been awful. But he has come around and pitcher very well his last two starts. In fact, he pitchd shut out ball against the Phillies. Today you can get Wells and the Cards at +132 against the Phils. Since 1997 Wells has gone 5-0 against the Phils with an era of 1.33 and a whip of 0.910. His teams have been 5-1 in those starts.
Now, if Moyer goes for the Phillies I would pass. But most reports have the starter as Kendrick. Who? Kendrick. It is true that in a pitcher's first start batters sometimes have troubles against someone they have never seen. But I would take my chances here.
We are offering a great Second Half Baseball special now. Starting Friday, Juloy 20, you can get our selections for the rest of the baseball season through the World Series. But let me rephrase that - it includes all our selections, not just baseball. That includes all other sports including boxing. Did I mention that since the World Series is in October you get the first month of football? How can you miss for the low price of $300? |
