6.2* Cubs -155 (to win 4.0*)
2.36* Marlins -118 (to win 2.0*)
2.60* Phillies -130 (to win 2.0*)
1.27* Cardinals -127 (to win 1.0*)

Who would've thought the Brewers could be swept in a 4 game series at home against their biggest division competition, but there is a good chance it will happen. All the numbers point to the Cubs today, and if Milwaukee can't get some run support, they have no chance. And the Brewers bullpen awaits if the game is close through 6 innings.

De La Rosa has a 6.25 road ERA for the Rockies, and a 6.20 ERA on the season. No significant difference, hes just plain bad. He has had a few good outings lately, but I also think its about time for the Rockies offense to put up less than 4 runs. I think Sanchez will have a good return also.

----Update: Sanchez (shoulder) appeared ready to rejoin the Marlins’ rotation Thursday, striking out seven over seven innings and 101 pitches in a rehab start for Double-A Carolina, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports.
Recommendation: He gave up three runs on seven hits and four walks to pick up the win. Former manager and now senior adviser Jack McKeon was on hand to see Sanchez, and liked what he saw. “He had a real good breaking ball, an outstanding change and a good fastball,” said McKeon. “He was in the 92-94 mph area all night.”

For the Phillies, I think the pitching match-up is pretty equal, but the hitting advantage goes to the Phillies, as we all know. So I'm hoping they can get another win on the road here.

Cardinals have the better pitcher on the mound today, and they have dominated the Braves this series, so, just like the Cubs, I am taking the away team to finish the 4 game sweep. I may get bit in the ass on both, but I like the numbers in these games.
