Take The Astros Tonight!!!!

RHP Roy Oswalt (16-11, 2.91 ERA) will face RHP Jon Lieber (13-12, 4.67 ERA).

Oswalt is 3-1 with a 1.46 ERA in his career against the Phillies, allowing only four earned runs over 24 2/3 innings.

The Astros have taken 10 in a row from the Phillies. They send Roy Osawalt to the mound who got hammered the last game out. Look for him to rebound against the Phils.

My plays on this game...
HOU R OSWALT -R -105
HOU R OSWALT -R Individual Total Over o3½ -135
HOU R OSWALT (1ST 5 INN) -108

I like this play tonight also MAx, good luck!

U7.5 might be the better play here for if the astros don't give up a lot they aren't going to score a lot, too

i can see another 4-3 game

Playing Philadelphia. One pitcher is 5-9 on the road the other is 9-4 at home. Who should be the favorite? Oz has lost 4 times already this year as a road fav. Phillies in game 2 of a 3 game home series this year after a loss are 8-2.

i like the phillies here also. plus i am a homer and i will be at the game.......:lolBIG: ...gl on houston!!

FYI:
ASTROS PROBABLE STARTER: Roy Oswalt (16-11, 2.91 ERA). Oswalt is 4-4 since the All-Star break. The veteran right-hander allowed five hits and a run over 5 2-3 innings in a 3-1 win over Cincinnati on Thursday. He struck out 11 and walked one. He is 3-1 with a 1.46 ERA in five career games against the Phillies.

PHILLIES PROBABLE STARTER: Jon Lieber (13-12, 4.67 ERA). Lieber is 4-2 with a 3.96 ERA over his last six starts. He allowed four hits and a run over seven innings in a 3-1 win over the New York Mets on Thursday. He is 7-8 with a 3.45 ERA in 25 career games against the Astros.

i briefly considered houston for my POD, as the 10 straight wins were powerful.. but the road team and oswalt as a road fav, against the phillies-- got me off of it.. no-play for me but good luck..

**Lieber Does not pitch that great at night 6-7 5.13 ERA w/ 20 homers in only 93 innings

morgan ensberg was hit on the right hand last night and is not in the starting lineup. mike lamb at third. big drop off on offense and defense

got Oswalt over 5.5 ks, -130. I'm a phillies fan and this team strikes out too much. Lieber is good for 2ks thru the fifth

Key here is Oswalt..he gets off to a good start and he will not allow a run...if he walks alot then look out for a big 1st from Philly

Rollins struck out looking. 1 out
Lofton grounded out to third. 2 out
Utley lined out to third. 3 outs
Lot better than his 5 run 1st inning in LA last week

1-0 final. Ok, thats a bit much. I loved this game until I heard Morgan was out. Still played a few props. Got the first 5 with you and played Houston scoring first. good luck and thanks for sharing.


tn

2 innings pitched..14 total for Roy "O" after 2...

6 K's Than yooouuuu!:toast:

Phillies find a way tonight, sorry
