Nice week last week as I cash just over five units with a nice amount of dog wins with the Phillies. Early this week I am liking the Nationals to do some damage out in Hollywood. The NL East is a better division that the West in my opinion. However, they can put up a fight as the Giants did against the Braves over the past four games. Anyway, here is what I have on tap for the next few days. The Washington Nationals money line (possibly the run line) and the over.
Washington Nationals -116
Washington Nationals/Los Angeles Dodgers over 6.5
Best of Luck,

I woke up this morning to the realization that Dan Haren will be pitching today for the Nationals. He left a bad taste in my mouth at the beginning of the season and it has been with me since early April. In light of his recent outings I am ready to move past his earlier performances.
Haren won against Detroit, Atlanta, and Cincinnati... No easy task in my book. So, I am going to trust him to get the win and go 6-7 innings against the Dodgers (whom are offensively deficient or so it seems). Haren will be pitching opposite Kershaw who has been great this year and his record should be much better but again: no run support. I am going to take the Nationals while they are still a huge dog and take the over while it stays where it is at.
Washington Nationals +167
Washington Nationals over 6... I think the line is at 6.5 but I like it there as well.

Moving right along with
the Nationals at a price right where I expected them to be. The over is
still valid... This is the last game of the series and I think that the
Nationals run away with it from the offensively deficient Dodgers.
Greinke is back... A little too soon in my opinion.
Greinke was supposed to
be out for eight weeks and he is back three weeks early. I am not on the
inside circle but a broken collar bone for a pitcher seems like a major problem
(no matter if it is on the pitcher arm or not). Personally and
unfortunately for Greinke he gets rocked tonight. It will take time for
him to get back mentally and physically... tonight is not where it happens
(especially against a hungry young Nationals team.)
Oh and let us not forget
about Mr. Ross Detwiler. He has a 2-3 record (in his 5 decisions) and an
ERA of 2.53. Ross is pitching below his career average of 3.61 and is doing his
job. He is doing his job where the Nationals have no when Detwiler is on
the mound. Washington has averaged just 2.2 runs a game in Detwiler's
"decision" starts. The upside you ask? Ross's last outing
was solid. Washington scored seven and beat up on the Cubs. The
Cubs are not a powerhouse, however. The win is a mental confidence boost
going into the Dodger's game tonight. When Detwiler receives his run
support tonight the Nationals will get the win. I am not going to predict
the score... I am going to say that the over hits and the Nationals walk away
from Hollywood with a nice series win as an underdog all three games.
Washington Nationals +130
Washington Nations/San Francisco Giants over 6.5

Here we go with another
new series. Actually two new series. Today I like two dogs and one of
them is a huge dog. I like the Padres and the Mets. I am going to
take the money line and run line on both games. I want Volquez and Niese
to have big games for me and I want to make back a couple of those units lost
on the Nationals.
The Nationals by the way
look like a bunch of five year old kids that complain every time someone
touches them. In their case they keep getting 'hurt' by whatever injury
they want to make up. Frankly, I am so sick of people saying injured
oblique this and oblique that. The oblique muscles are your the freaking muscles on the side of your abdominal muscles! Unless, they are referring to the oblique arytenoid muscle in the neck which I doubt a single announcer on earth knows what that is. I can go run a damn 12 mile Tough Mudder or Spartan Race or any number of
mud races with a torn external or internal oblique abdominal muscle. So, do not give me this crap about injuries in
baseball unless they have a freaking bone stuck out of one of their appendages.
*End Rant*
New York Mets +1.5 -105 1 units
New York Met +215 .5 units
San Diego Padres +141 2 units
San Diego Padres +1.5 -125 1 unit

Moving right along this week and going to stick with the Padres and the Mets this weekend. I do not have a lot of time to do a write-up but below are my picks today:
New York Mets -138 San Diego Padres +119
I would like to note that the Padres line has moved over 30 cents in the Padres favor since yesterday... There must be a lot of money moving away from the Nationals and little confidence in their offense as well as Gio Gonzalez.

I decided to go ahead and take the Nationals as a dog and the Phillies with their young pitcher on the hill. So, two dogs today. I am feeling kind of lucky. I hit four numbers in the Power Ball last night...
Washington Nationals +120
