Now 12-3-1 my last 16 plays overall here at Bettor's Chat.
Philadelphia Phillies vs Washington Nationals
The Phillies 5 losses on this trip have all come by 1 run, but that was vs Atlanta and Miami. Prior to this trip the Phils last 19 road losses had all been by 2 runs or more and 4 of their 5 losses in this park this year have come by 2 runs or more. Jered Eichoff has not pitched bad for the Phillies, but they give him just 2.75 rpg worth of support on the road and overall Philly can't scored right now as they have put up just 14 total runs in their last 8 games.
Jordan Zimmerman gets the ball for the Nats and is a solid 8-3 with a 2.50 ERA at home. Overall the Nats are 13-5 in his home starts and 8 of those wins have been by 2 runs or more, including the last 4. One of his home losses his year was to the Phils, but in his previous 4 home starts vs Philly he allowed just 4 total ERs, with the Nats winning those games 11-0, 7-0, 11-2 and 5-2. He normally dominates this team at home.
The Nats are out of the playoff picture, and are off getting swept at home vs the Orioles. I say they take their frustrations out on a bad Philly team tonight.
Play Washington -1.5 (-110) over Philadelphia
Arizona Damondbacks vs San Diego Padres
I have said it before and i'll say it again... Padre home games are o longer the low scoring games they have been in the past. For years this stadium would averaged under 7 rpg, but this year the padres have upgraded their hitting and downgraded their pitching and it has resulted in Petco putting up 8.43 rpg on the year.
Ruby De La Rosa comes in with a 6.46 ERA i his last 5 starts and a 1.66 WHIP in his last 3 starts. He has faced the Padres 4 times in his carer and his worst start was at Petco, in which he allowed 3 ERs in 6 innings. The Padres have averaged 4.09 rpg at home and 490 rpg in their last 10 games overall, so they should get to De La Rosa in this one, plus we note that behind him is a D-Back pen that has a 4.14 ERA in it's last 10 games.
Padre pitching has been bad overall this year, but it has been much worse of late as hey have a 5.55 ERA in their last 10 games and that includes getting a 6.90 ERA fro their pen over that stretch. Casey Kelly gets the Ball for San Diego tonight and will be making his first start in the majors sine 2012. In 6 career starts for Casey he has a 6.21 ERA and in the Minors this year he was just horrible, posting a 2-10 mark with a 5.16 ERA in 31 games (17 starts). He will face a D-Back team that averages 4.46 rpg on the road.
I can't see how both teams don't notch at least 4 runs each in this one.
