I like the Dodgers here as they continue their road swing in Pittsburgh. Kind of getting the feeling the Dodgers are ready to make their move. Obviously a sluggish start for the defending National league champs but loads of time to right the ship. As I enter this into the system they reside only 2.5 games back in the wide open west. The Dodgers have now won seven of the last ten games and on the flip side we have seen some regression with the Buc's as they have now dropped seven of their last ten. Never real appealing to take the road favorites but hard to ignore the fact the Dodgers have reeled off seven straight road wins. Musgrove is certainly capable but I'm okay trusting Stripling here taking the ball. The Dodgers have done well squaring off against Pittsburgh winning six of the last seven meetings. Of course it is one baseball game in june guys. These trends point us in the right direction but we all know how flimsy trends can be. I am not going triple here but I do think it is a strong double we can play with confidence. Let's take the Dodgers to keep up the winning road trip here capturing the series opener. Many sincere thanks as always and best of luck to each of us. Enjoy the game. 

One final note: I have no information yet but if history holds Pregame will be coming out before you know it with their early bird football offers fairly soon. Seems like everyone loves to bet football. It is without question the king of the sports betting world. Many folks take advantage of this early bird offer every year and it is a very legitimate opportunity to get a season package at a really attractive discounted rate. Just a heads up.
