I was thinking about taking either one or both of these props...
Oswalt over 5.5 SO's -125
and
Garland over 4 SO's -110
In Oswalt's last 10 he goes under that number only twice (when he had back to back 5 K outings in Sept, both vs Milwaukee)
Garland is a little shakier as he has gone under 4 K's in 4 of his last 10 games.
One note that I think is important is that most of the batters have never faced either pitcher. Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but in general, doesn't seeing a pitcher for the first time GENERALLY favor the pitcher???
