EP36's Astros Daily Pick (2-51-1 [-3.88])

[EaglesPhan36]

FRIDAY, APRIL 13th
Roy Oswalt vs. Brett Myers
2006 Season Series: 4-2 PHI

Both teams are off to slower than expected starts, but the Astros did pick up two much needed road wins in Chicago. The pitching match-up should be stellar with Oswalt having a fantastic 4-1 lifetime mark vs. PHI with a 1.58 ERA. That includes a 2-0 mark at PHI with a 0.57 ERA.

Pick: Astros (Even)

I agree with you EP, Philly is always overvalued at home. In each of the last 2 years, they have had far better results on the road than at home. This game smells like a home loss to me. I suspect the Houston offense will wake up a bit in this game, either vs. Myers or late vs. the Philly pen. And Oswalt, he will likely have Houston in it until the end.

I respectfully disagree with you in this game Mr.Eagles. I do like Philly in this game.

Nice record!
