1. Pittsburgh/St Louis Under 7 +110 (bodog)
This matchup has gone under the total at least 6 times in a row now in St Louis including last night and three times in Pittsburgh last week. The season scores between these two teams have been: 3-2,3-2,3-2, and 3-0. Pittsburgh managed to score three runs in the top of the first last night and didnt score the rest of the way, but held down St Louis to only 2 runs. Tom Gorzellany was studly last week vs the cards going 7IP and allowing only 4 hits with 0 ER. Wainwright was also solid in his last start vs the bucs going 6 IP and only allowing 2ER after stranding several runners. Both pitchers hold ERA's under 2.0. With Pittsburgh being the third lowest scoring team in the league and St Louis struggling at home (1-5) look for this to be a low scoring affair.
2. San Diego (Maddux -130) bodog
Maddux is one of the best students of the game, being with the Cubs for a few years he knows the strengths and weaknesses of this team better than probably anyone, holding an 11-3 career mark against the cubbies. Maddux exits a solid 4-0 win over the Giants while opposing pitcher Wade Miller struggled against Milwaukee allowing them to hit .450. San Diego had won 7 games in a row at wrigley prior to last night showing their dominance in the series and coming off back to back blowout losses expect the fathers to play hard today against a jeckel @ hyde team that could perhaps be without both alfonso soriano and aramis Ramirez.
Will post later picks.
YTD: 3-1 +$290
