AJ....take a look at my logo, and ASK any of these guys...especially soswalter....im the biggest phillies homer on the board......and ilive and die phillies....i simply decided to profit today, as this line is begging for phils money.
hamels is better, he may be best in nl by end of the year.
whose the hotter team between the 2?
dont look now...its the mets....i watch every phillies game , and if u saw the reds series, the ball is flying out of this park like crazy in this current heat, and phils pitchers , whetehr its hamels or not, are having lots of trouble keepin it in the yard.
id like nothing more than to see the phils win, especially when hamels pitches....but the mets are somuch better value here...
these 3 things clicnhced it for me.
1.yes the mets scored 5- early then died....but they scored no runs in the stl series, and woke up for the phils.....the phils played extra inn and rain interrupted games the last 2 days, and had trouble beating the reds 2-1 in that series. the mets got rained out last night and arrived in philly be4 the phils beat the reds in 10th inn .
2. hamels has 9 win -145...blah blah blah....one thing everyone ignores, U GET JOHN MAINE AT 8 WINS @+135 with the better lineup for this park. delgado loves it here as game 1 shows (as we speak, beltran has 2 hr in 2nd game)...also castro played game one, which means if i back METS I GET RIGHT HANDED HITTING LODUCA IN GAME 2VS THE LEFTY HAMELS. IF THEY SAVE LADUCA FOR GAME 2, WHATS THAT TELL U BOUT WHICH GAME THEY R SAVIN THE EFFORT FOR?
3. pHILS ARE AS MUCH OF a momentum team as any in the league......after losing game 1, chances are good they lose game 2 . all that being said...i do like them to win saturday in front of national audience and again on sunday......
