Another profitable night in spite of ourselves - I suppose we could have taken the Phillies - here is one we're on this afternoon, and we will have our Triple Dime GOW going tonight.
902 PHI / 901 CHCOVER 7.5 Pinnacle |

Analysis: The weather, or the threat of a thunderstorm/rain delay - is the ONLY thing holding this total where it is. The Cubs might be pissy and the hammered Velasquez once already - he's too young to make the adjustments against THIS team. The Phillies have had some success off of Lackey, enough to think they contribute. BOTH bullpens are in disarray - and if the rain delay happens and is timed right, we could see the starters pulled if the delay happens AND is long enough. I'm not counting on the delay - but IMO if it does happen it'll only help.
