Oswalt vs Carpenter !?!?

[gohabsgo]

Can get philly @+101 at pinnacle
Philly's been big road favorites all series and now they are slight dogs against a weak carpenter.
What's the catch?
Gotta go with philly here imo...

i think you are making a mistake. If you calling Carp weak you might wanna pay attention to what Oswalt has been doing lately.

[Lord and Master]

cards have a better offense and arguably a better pitcher going, phillies should be bigger dogs

[dlunc3]

The two are very similar at this point in the game... in my opinion it comes down to whose bats and pen you trust more


btw great call on the series Dan

on both of these statements

[Lord and Master]

on both of these statements

Oswalt has an xFIP of 4.06, Carpenter 3.34. Cards offense is 3rd in the league in OPS, Phillies 17th separated by .57 OPS. Even without pujols its not even close, he would close that gap by .15 OPS max

cards will be at least -115 by the time the game starts

True, i might play the over 7.5 on this one, i'll sleep on it.

Easy money bro, a team that is already decimated by injuries isnt gonna just bounce right up from losing there leader, especially playing the best team and facing 2 of the best pitchers in the league.

As for 2marro i dont feel like Carp and Oswalt are anywhere near the same right now. Yes Carps numbers arnt great but his stuff is there, can you say that about Oswalt? It certainly isnt about who's pen you trust more cause Carp even while struggling at times is pretty much a lock to go deep into this game, while Oswalt has only went 7 twice all season. I know phils pen has been good lately but seeing oswalt then the pen will be a hell of a lot more fun than what Cards have been dealing with the last 2 nights.

Seriously considering the over myself. But have this sneaky feeling Carp pitches a gem,maybe its homerism i havnt decided yet

[Lord and Master]

-115 it is

[pokerpro44]

i am on the cards.gl.

[Sportsbetting123]

Would love to see my Phils sweep the series tonight but realistically I think the Cardinals salvage the rubber game.

[J-Ro11]

Again, the Cards have the Pujols gap to fill.

Under 8 is nice.

[solid152]

ozzy ozzy ozzy! oy oy oy!

[legendmatt34]

stl cant even score a run..

[blinky88]

cardinals dont have the better offense without pujols. and carpenter has been tanking it this year.

[firehoyt]

Cards win this one!

[xyzky]

Really tuff to back the Cards here thats for sure...

[gohabsgo]

I might be a square but i'll stick with my original plan, philly it will be!
