CINCINNATI (Milton) +170 over CHICAGO CUBS (C. Zambrano)
when Eric Milton takes the hill today for the Reds.
He performed well in his first start of the season, allowing
just two runs in seven innings. Now he gets to take on a
Chicago team that was only 10-18 (-$1450) vs. lefthanders
at home in 2005. The Reds have looked good in the games
they've played so far, and posted a hefty profit in day games
last year (+$830). certainly not sold on the Cubs, who
are currently atop the NL Central despite a host of injuries.
The visiting underdog is an outstanding value in this one.
