    the wild lefty vs th soft tossing lefty, mets/phills who do we like
    i kinda like the mets and the over here. perez should be able to get some ks vs the free swinging phils and perez isnt the easiest guy to run on; the phils were one of the best teams in the history of the league last year in SB%. who do we have here?

    As crazy as this may sound, I would be more hesitant to take the Phillies if they were a +155 underdog. I think the books are begging people to take the Mets today, in their home opener, with the much better starter, coming of an off day against a left handed hitting heavy Phillies team that hasnt been off in a while. The fact that they are only a +130-135 dog right now tells me that the books do not want Philly action. Additionally the Phillies will be up for this game. This has become a big time rivalry with Rollins mouthing off last year and Beltran mouthing off before this season. I also have a thing that I usually play the decent sized dog anytime I can against Oliver Perez. This is one of those situations. Finally, theres the Burrell factor. He still owns the Mets.

        If I had a lean it would be on the over. Staying away from this one too.

          It's a toss up. Why not go with the TLS play on the Mariners?

            Just got through looking this game over and came up with the same thoughts. Really like the over and Perez in my opinion is a much stronger pitcher than Moyer.

              i like the over as well. The wind is blowing in slightly today, but it shouldn't be enough to make much difference. ny is a pitchers park, but getting + money on the over is where im leaning.

                      yeah i dont know what the over/under is, but it's only 3-2 now. i expect the game to end at 3-2...

                      mets are weak and are done for this game.
