Dog Fight

WOW - what a freaking amazing game last night - talk about two teams going at each other. I wonder if Molina will be playing today or is this one of those wait a month and THEN suspend the hot head. You gotta think that spitting on a ump will not help you in your argument.

Anyway - tooting my own horn I called that game right on the head didn't I (remember I also smack myself when I lose so . . . .)

Record 57-48 +5.55

Today the Brewers are UNDERDOGS at -102 and I'm all over that one.

Couple things - IF Molina does not play or even if he does there might be some calls that will find there way against him. If the other catcher plays it's just a good thing anyway.

Jackson is a freaking good pitcher who has been hot so that is a major concern and the reason the Brewers are dogs. But Wolf is not too shabby either.

The Cards are slightly worse against LHPs but not THAT much. But Molina is very good vs, LHP so if he is not in the line-up it's a big deal.

I don't have a lot to say about this game - one thing I just noticed is that the Cards are not very good hitters in day games. Their RC/27 is a tiny 3.85 in 35 games while the Brewers are about even Day vs. Night. The Cards are way way worse during the day games. In fact the cards slugging at night is .441 and in daylight .381. weird.

Jackson's ERA is about 1/2 run worse in daylight in the last 3 years while Wolf is 0.20 better in daylight.

Wolf has a 3.15 ERA vs. St.Louis in the past three.

Brewers -102 and liking the game.

Cheers

BUT - the pitching staff is also better in daylight.
