> The Skinny
The Cardinals and Reds head to Mexico for a pair of games. With all the extra stuff involved in something like that, go with the favorite. Always . . . Mets have won three in a row, two of them in Atlanta. Well worth taking the shot here with this price . . . Looks like the Phillies offense have awoken again, as one is apt to do against the 3-11 Marlins . . . . . . Yes, the Rockies and Giants played 5 ½ hours and 18 innings Friday night/Saturday morning and still had only five runs to show for their troubles. And now they have an afternoon game following a morning game. The bats will still be asleep.
