R.A. Dickey faces Jamie Moyer tonight.For the Phils this will be the 2nd knuckleball pitcher in a row after Tim Wakefield shut them down last game.If Dickey's knuckleball is on it could be a long game for the phils but if it lacks movement the phillies hitters might put 2 touchdowns on the board.The fact that so much depends on whether the knuckleball is going to be live or not makes this game a huge question mark as is usually the case with Wakefield also.When its flat they get destroyed like its batting practice but when its live its the hardest pitch in the game.I hear that Dickey throws his knuckle harder than Wakefield though.

Interesting spot. Wakefield Owned the Phils.

this is a game where vegas could set either team as favorite
i think they think phills will have trouble- thus setting phils as favorite-
wanting money on phils
if they thought dickey was going to get reamed theyd set mets as favorite
and invite bettors to bet on mets
they are usually right

Dickey not quite the quality of Wakefield. Knuckleball for 2nd game in a row = Phillies Roll! Don't over think it!
