Sport: MLBPick Selection: Brewers, Game 2
At 8:10pm our complimentary selection is on the Milwaukee Brewers over the St. Louis Cardinals. Don't let the fact that the Brewers have lost each of Chris Capuano's last eleven starts bother you, as some of that was injury related, and the last two were simply bad luck and not due to any fault of the veteran lefthander. Capuano pitched brilliantly over eight innings against Cincinnati on Monday, but Aaron Harang was just slightly better and put in a very rare ten inning performance to lead the Reds to victory. But can it get any worse than the season Cardinals righthanded starter Anthony Reyes is having? Even the worst starters in any given season luck their way into a win or two. But not Reyes. His record stands at an amazing 0-10 on the year, not to mention his 6.40 ERA. Reyes has been trying to get things together in AAA since the end of June, but even down there he only managed one win. Despite the 0-11 record when Capuano pitches, the Brewers are a very impressive 7-2 in his last nine starts vs. St. Louis. With the Brewers 12-2 domination of the Cards on Friday, they have now won six of the last seven matchups against their division rivals. Take Milwaukee. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.
