why?
Before I explain the reasoning for this pick can I please say 3 words.
WHAT THE F_ _ K!
Yes I had to say it, the Phillies opened up as underdogs at home against the Nationals. Whos pitching for the Nationals? Roger Clemons. No I 'Misremembered' it's the hyped up rookie Strasburg.
Phillies are 21-6 in their last 27 games. They are just started to get everyone back from the DL. Chase Utley, Shane Victorino and Jimmy Rollins are all 100% again. Kyle Kendrick is even having a good season for someone named Kyle Kendrick. He may not have the era to back it up but the Phillies have been winning when he's playing. They are 14-9 in games he started. In his last start he was lights out against the Mets. He will look to continue that today. Also may I add that the Phillies are a team stacked with left handed batters that eat up right handed pitching.
The Nationals started this game as a favourite! WHAT? People are jumping on the Strasburg bandwagon like 16 year old boys with playboy magazine. Is he really that much of a difference to the slumping Nationals that only have 3 wins in their past 12 games. Considering that Strasburg played worse than my grandma in his past two starts since he came off the DL is an indication that the young stud isn't ready to be the next Roger Clemons just yet.
No way in hell the line should be this close. Vegas lines aren't stupid but the people throwing money at the Nationals on the FRIGGEN ROAD AGAINST THE PHILLIES sure are. Take Advantage of this line and you won't regret it. Thanks for the support!
