NY METS (O. Hernandez) +160 over TORONTO (Halladay)
OK, maybe Roy Halladay really is the best pitcher in
the American League this year. But how often are we
going to get a chance to take a team like the Mets at
this sort of underdog price. New York has posted a
spectacular 21-10 record vs. righthanders on the road
this year (+$995 with just over six runs per game) and
they've got a hot El Dugue (2.37 ERA in his last 3 starts)
taking the mound. The Mets have taken nine straight as
visitors, and dispatched this team with little difficulty
in last night's series opener.This is a huge price to be
laying on the home team in this one, especially given
Toronto's terrible 8-14(-$830) record in day games
this year.
