[fightingwarrior]

mark itttttttttttttttttt

[demarino]

HA! i'll be surprised if the phils don't sweep the reds.

[MartinBlank]

Mark it what, Fiction?

As a Reds fan-----I was desperately cheering for the Pads yesterday----hoping to give my Reds a first round matchup with anyone but Philly.

Halladay, Oswalt, Hamels.

That's gonna suck.

[demarino]

thats right you add those 3 with our offense, i'm sorry but no one in the nl has a chance, especially in a 5 games series.

[LLXC]

I am hoping they do but highly doubt it.

[Pauulzcappin]

Phillies will obviously win the series.

[sweethook]

any other time but phily is realy now

[mvp123]

mark itttttttttttttttttt

i got a 1k pts to say you are wrong ??

let me know

[biggamer3]

Doc and Oswalt are too much and throwing in Hamels as the #3 is sickness

[MartinBlank]

Get this stat.

If you look at the Phillies' results following the last 30 (10-10-10) games that Halladay/Oswalt/Hamels have pitched....

The Phillies are 24-3, with 3 no decisions.

[t-wizzle]

Now why would you go and throw your money away like that?

Phillies sweep.

[pavyracer]

And Bears ML was a steal last night. We get it guy..You like to keep the books in business. Thank you.

[alex.blasscyk]

You're a square!

mark itttttttttttttttttt

[onetrickpony]

philles big 3 over 200 ip, bronson only one for the reds, if there is a team that can get to these guys its the reds, the philles peaked too early 24-3 with 3 no decisions, while the reds have just been hangin around playing decent ball the last month, if they beat oswalt in philly then reds have a great shot

[brxbmbers42]

mark itttttttttttttttttt

never fukkin happen. i'd be shocked if they dont represent NL.

[nobodyukno]

Of all the series, this is the most for sure one

[Sawyer]

Reds won't give up easily.

[ehp6737]

peaked to early whats this guy talkin bout. They have done this 3 years in a row and played till the end.

[Pauulzcappin]

I think a lot of people will get buried playing the over tomorrow, just sayin'.

[THEGREAT30]

this is a sweep for the Phillies

[Pauulzcappin]

I meant the under earlier. duh;

[pavyracer]

It will be a 3-0 series for the Phillies. But if by any chance you want to bet the Reds series save your money instead and bet the over in every game. Because the Reds have to score 4-6 runs every game to have a realistic chance to win with their bad pitching.

[bonduforlife]

Doc wont pitch a shuout or anything. The first game is going to come down to Volquez. Hallday will allow atleast 3 runs if Volquez can pitch a 2 run game then the red might take the first game. I am going to take +1.5RL on the reds, i believe its the best play..maybe even over 6.5

He'll be 1-0 after Wednesday.

This is what he's waited all his career for, a chance to be with a winner.

Lights out

very close. he goes 6 and gives 2 imo.

Aroldis Chapman is the Xfactor in this series. Dude throws gas. If reds starters go deep look out!

[mikemca]

4 games most if they get to hamels.Don't see them beating doc or oswalt.

Reds have too many Latino starting pitchers. You rattle them in the start of the game with a few hits and with their hot tempers they lose focus and blow the game white open. Phillies starters have ice cold veins and they play at home.

[sportsguy04]

The reds have a chance.

They beat DOC earlier this season and gave him the most hits he has allowed all season in that game.

Reds also know Oswalt very well and roughed him up once this season scoring I think 7-8 runs off him. However, he is usually very good vs. Reds.

Hamels is also solid, but still hittable.

Reds had best offensive numbers all season. This series comes down to the Reds starters. If they can go to 7-8 innings, then they can win the series. Reds Bats have been hot.

[Flight]

5Dimes has the series at:

Reds +250
Phillies -270

Funny how the series with the longest odds is the most intriguing.

Dusty Baker's son still a bat boy? When Dusty was in Chicago, Junior was the bat boy and the hitting coach.
