Phillies -1.5 (+115), 3 wins 3.45
LeBlanc comes into this game having struggled mightily in his last four starts including a shellacking by the lackluster Seattle Mariner bats. The Phillies left a lot of men on base yesterday, reminiscent of their recent skid early this past week, but I think Hamels steps up and wins the series for his team.

Pirates +134, 1 wins 1.34
I, again, like the Pirates at these odds.
Outside of two starts against the Red Sox, a team who would beat up on a pitcher who has control problems, Dana Eveland has been pretty solid at times. Though Silva is coming off of his best start of the season, I'm still not sold on his ability for it to last. Whether or not his misfortune starts this afternoon or at a later date is irrelevant. In a fast paced, make-up, weekday afternoon game at Pittsburgh, I expect all those factors to benefit the Pirates.
