ARIZONA (E. Gonzalez) +180 over ATLANTA (Smoltz)
The Diamondbacks grabbed a win vs. this team
last night, and they look like a great value as a big
underdog in this one. Enrigue Gonzalez pitched a
solid six innings in his first start of the season, al-
lowing just one earned run in that game, and the
Braves have lost money vs. righthanders this year
(-$540). John Smoltz is having a good year for the
Braves so far, but he's certainly not unbeatable. The
Braves have only won six of his 11 starts and his
ERA is close to 4.00 over his last three starts. The
D'Backs are making money vs. righties (+$705 with
5.1 runs per game) so why not grab what looks to
be a wildly inflated price, and look for the visitor to
make it two in a row.
