no way Halladay goes down today.

[rthoughton]

not even at -210 currently.
John Lannan is 0-7 vs the Phils with a 6.06 in 10 starts.
He is 2-4 with a 4.70 in 12 home starts this season.

Doc is 7-1 lifetime against the Nats and went 7 shutout innings in his last game against them.
He has a Cy Young to win. A win tonight guarantees him at least a tie for the NL lead in Wins. The Phils' Magic Number is 1. They clinch tonight and will look to do it on their own.
They have lost 2 straight.

big big on Roy tonight.

[jbhomerun]

does anyone know if Zimmerman is still out?

[bonduforlife]

Totally with you on this one. I watched halladay's every start when he was with the Blue Jays. around this time he pitches shutouts/Complete Games. Probably the easiest pick of the day my prediction: 6-0 phillies

[BL]

play the UNDER

[rthoughton]

I agree with the under as well.

[CHAZ]

Its -210 though, I'd rather find another play with better value.

[rthoughton]

i mean... you dont really get much better value than a winner. ignore the -220. this is the safest play today.
Losing a -150 makes less sense than hitting a -220.

yes i think its a lock phils still has a reason to play they are fighting for their division

[cecil127]

do they get this game in tonight?

Well of course anything is better winning then losing. I just like the reward to be better for my risk.

Goodluck to you though regardless good sir

[floridagolfer]

You've got to like Halladay since he has a purpose . . . throw a good 7 innings and perhaps add to his Cy Young Award prospects. I would think he'd also get two or three innings later in the week, which would provide a perfect set-up to opening the playoffs.

[gtboy]

take the nats rl. doc might take it easy for the post season

[JohnnyC]

Betting faves in bases is a good way to go broke, so is betting dogs tho.

[philswin]

Lot of things in favor of laying this line - But I am going to the run line -1.5 and lay -120 for Phillies to win. Halladay to probably clinch the CY Young and Division tonight. Can John Lannan and the Nats stop this??

[linedrivr]

I will side with Vegas tonight and take the big doggie Nats.

[tltaylor89]

Phils O7 ,ML ,and -1.5

[obamaismyuncle]

I like the nats tonight

[latinrus]

agree

[Footballtime]

I agree, Lannan has been awful against the phils, GL FBT

[No coincidences]

Zimm's done.

[Shelton]

just a turn up he'll lose

[philswin]

Wow Halladay was strong threw complete game 2hitter, faced 1 batter over the minimum, 97 total pitches. that was easy

[stealthyburrito]

way too easy by halladay over the lifeless nats.

[tltaylor89]

Good job TLT

Phils O7 ,ML ,and -1.5

[bu08usc11]

[jboy4]

Just another day at the office for the Phils

[dynamite140]

Phillies very good team with Doc

[MoneyM1ke]

Nice call, now only if I would of bet big
