25-13, +22.12
Another winning day at 4-2 yesterday.
1* Milwaukee Brewers -108
Gotta like the value on the Brewers here, and I'll play them again with similiar reasoning as I laid out a few days ago before they were rained out. Ben Sheets steps up in big games, and I feel he and the Brewers take this Sunday game seriously vs. the defending champs and the chance to take a road series from them. Sheets was dominant on Team USA, and he can dominate any lineup when the stakes are high. He has a chance to exercise his past demons vs. the Cards and take advantage of their lack of offense right now. Cards are playing .500 baseball right now, their offense is struggling and you get a price of -108 on one of the best pitchers in the National League vs. a guy coming off the pitching performance of his career last game. Braden Looper is a career reliever, and I always look to fade pitchers after one of the greatest performances of their career. It is natural that they should suffer a let down or come back down to earth a bit, and that should be the case here today, especially with Looper getting deeper and deeper to each and every start - he charters further into unfamiliar territory of continuing to go out and pace himself.
Brewers 5
Cardinals 2
