pittsburgh under 10
arizona minus 200
early day game after a night game in pittsburgh usually favors the under. yes, cubs have hammered the ball against the pirates the last few nights. but 10 is still too high a number. duke with very good numbers in his career vs. chicago (over a good sample as well). and prior to last night, pittsburgh has been really struggling to score runs since their fire sale.
for san diego to sweep arizona, it would require them going through haren, webb, and johnson. can it happen? sure. sweeps happen all the time even against good teams. but this one would be very improbable. johnson has RIDICULOUSLY good numbers in petco (and in san diego period in his career) and even the padres 'good' bats have been seemingly hitting with blindfolds against him (see: brian giles .... 3 for 32 in his career with 13 strikeouts). you cant often say that 2/1 is a bargain. but ill say it here, simply because the odds are stacked against san diego completing the sweep against a long time nemesis.
