Alright, really didn't know who I liked in the first game today until I dug deep. Gun to my head, I would take the over here, but I really don't like playing totals. I like the Phillies to win this game at home. Jiminez has been solid this year, but I think the Phils chase him in the 6th or so and get to that bullpen early. Still treading lightly, though.
1* -136 Phillies
Good Luck.

1-1 (sitting even)
Alright! First win of the playoffs and relatively easy. Adding one here:
LAD +1.5 -150 1*
4 out of 6 between these two teams this season this bet won. The O/U is set really low, I'm seeing it at 7 and 6.5 at two different locals, so I'll take the 1.5 runs and hopefully cover.

Okay, lets start this off:
1.5* Colorado +150
1* Under 9
Hammels doesn't get much run support and Colorado left some runners on in the early innings yesterday. I look for them to be more opportunistic today.
Usually I would take the over once the series gets going and the butterflies are gone, but traditionally these pitchers don't get run support. I don't know the reason behind this, maybe its the pace of the game, maybe its the attitude the position players have when they have these guys on the mound, but whatever it is, I think this goes under.
Good Luck.

Adding:
St Louis -106 2*
Wainwright brings the A-game that Carpenter left in StL this evening and comes through for a victory. He's been successful against LA in the past, has a W under his belt against them and I just don't see all the missed opportunities that plagued them last night continue.
Good Luck.

Still at even money, I'll do the math but been drinking.
Win some, lose some. Wainwright did bring his A-game, Franklin didn't. Tough to cap that.
Weird feeling now, maybe because I've been drinking and still celebrating Nebraska's WIN last night, but here is what I'm taking...
Min +1.5 1*
Under 9.5. 1*

As much as I don't like LA, I do respect them. I think they smell blood and are going to put that nail in the coffin tonight. Pineiro has been great at home, but I just can't pass up the plus money tonight. LA knows they will be facing Carpenter in StL then Wainwright in a possible game 5. Damn, I really wanted to see StL come up with the win, but my money is elsewhere.

Love this time of year! One play for tonight:
1.5* Over 7.5 runs (+105)
These teams will be scoring tonight, they won't come out timid. Although Hamels is working on extra rest, I look for this to be around 10 runs tonight. Slight lean on LAD, but just playing the total for now.
