Yesterday's pick was Detroit +1.5 & following a rain delay, that game went on to be tied 4-4 in extra innings. The only way I could lose was from a Cincinnati multi-homerun. It happened. They won by 4. Not a big deal, it happens from time to time to everyone.
Today's picks:
Minnesota Twins +1.5 -140 odds
Minnesota pitcher Mike Pelfrey, has an ERA of 3.00 in 4 career games against St. Louis. He has a 2-0 record in those games. Today, he gets to face a St. Louis team full of media distractions. I feel comfortable backing Minnesota today on the run line. Every time these teams play it's a close game as it is. Minnesota can win this game outright.
Houston Astro's vs Colorado Rockies over 10.5 -115 odds
With the low level of pitching in this game, I will be taking a rare game total. I believe that both teams will have an easy time scoring. We might see about 15 runs this afternoon. An interesting note for this game. If Houston manages to hit multiple homeruns in the game, they will likely win. Houston is 26-0 when hitting multiple homeruns in a game.
Cleveland Indians -167 moneyline
Chicago beat Cleveland 17-0 yesterday. Today, I see the game going differently. Chicago pitcher Jason Hammel is going to be the reason that Cleveland wins this game. In his career, Hammel has an ERA of 5.40 in 8 games played against Cleveland. He started in 4 of those games & has an 0-3 record in doing so.
I'm liking these picks a lot. I believe they will get the job done.
