I see A LOT of people jumping on Philly (with Oswalt) as a +120 DOG tonight in San Diego. Their reasoning is that Philly is really really really really due to break out of their slump. Oh...and Oswalt is a good pitcher.
I have a few problems with this:
#1 Why not just wait UNTIL THEY ACTUALLY DO BREAK OUT OF IT before putting money on them.
#2 Latos is a fantastic pitcher. What makes you think they will hit Latos, when they only scored 7 runs total in 4 games against Bud Norris, J.Happ, Wandy Rodriguez, and Brett Myers....in the hitters paradise in Philly?!?!
#3 San Diego is a damn good team. And they are 38-23 at home. While Philly is UNDER .500 on the road.
I am staying away from this game...I think you should too!
