My record posting year to date is 11 wins and 15 losses. Looking to start a little run heading into this weekend. Lets get started with todays game.
CHC @ FLA (Harden vs Volstad)
The Pick: CUBS
Who else than Rich Harden has pitched better after the All Star Break? The answer to that question is not too many guys. Harden his last 3 games since the break has given up only 2 runs. He has also walked only 2 people and struck out 21 in those 3 games. Two of those games on the road. I look for Harden to continue his road success and send at least 5 batters home with at least 1 strikeout under their belt. FLA in their last 10 games has scored 41 runs to bring their avg scored last 10 to 4.1 runs. Thats not bad except to the Cubs comparison of scoring 65 runs in 10 games for an average of 6.5 runs scored per game. Expecting roughly a score of CHC 8 and FLA 3. Go Cubs!
