Check out the Phillies if you are looking for a good mid-sized favorite today. Pratt will be behind the plate in lieu of Lieberthal, and Duckworth is 1-0 with a 1.93 ERA in 4 starts with Pratt as his catcher as opposed to 2-4 with a 6.17 ERA when Lieberthal goes. Rolen should also be back for Philly after getting a couple of days off to rest an ankle sprain that caused a recent 2 for 25 slump.
Phillies notes (possibly a good play today)

I like Phillies also. Is a good play in my opinion as I dont wanna lay lot of chalk on the favorites.
Good luck Nick

Good to hear you are on it. I am taking the day off from playing my own plays but I figured I'd post this since I had the info anyway.
Pratt is Duckworth's personal catcher. Might hurt offensively a bit, but it also gives a big psychological boost to Duckworth.
I love this play. Not a lot of times to list all the keys, but one big thing that sticks out is how bad Lohse is vs lefty hitters. Lefties are hitting an amazing .378 off Lohse this season and was no different last year. They are hitting .361 career vs him. Philly should have plenty of lefty bats in the lineup tonight.
One more quick one: Lohse struggles away from home bigtime. Career 6.21 ERA on the road.
