Okay today is the day we start off Monday with a strong start.  My record YTD: 9 wins and 10 losses. Lets get right into Monday's plays,

Game#1:  CHC @ PHI Under 9.5
It's no secret to the public that the Cubs have been struggling to score runs.  The Phillies are red hot and finally have started to straighten out that lazy bullpen of theirs.  Lopez pitched well thus far in the big leagues this year trying to secure a number 5 spot in the roation.  LIlly has been pitching rather well this year as he was the only Cub selected to this years NL All-Star team.  Couple of quick trends for you guys: Under is 49-38 for CUbs this yr and 25-17 on the road for them as well.  The Under for PHI is 44-40 overall and 26-17 at home.  Under also on a 10-4 run their last 14 games.  Expect to see a low scoring affair!

Game #2:  BAL @ NYY:  NYY RL
I have to play the numbers in this game.  Andy's career numbers vs the Orioles is recidulous with a 24-6 record and 3.8 ERA in 35 games.  Yanks have owned BAL all year and that trend continues today.  Especially with BOS losing yesterday the Yanks want to gain games when they can.  Look for A-ROD and Big TEX to have big games today vs the Orioles 24 yr old rookie hurler.  Pettitte 3-0 w a 1.8 ERA vs BAL last season
