Went ahead and scooped up about 4 units yesterday, but lost about a unit and a half overall after trailing some other picks. Had a bad read on the Marlins game last night, but drilled the rest of the card Peter North style. I'm sticking with my own picks today to get yesterday's cash back and this is the card to do it.
(4 units) Reds at Mets OV 9
Milton at Glavine. Milton is a bulldog-type of competitor, and I love betting this guy when he pitches at home. But the road is a different story. He's given up 8 HRs in just 65 road At Bats. For all the math majors out there he gives up a long ball everytime through the lineup on the road. He's shown a complete inability to get out of jams with just 6 strikeouts on the road, and opponents are batting .415/.452/.862. Everybody knows about Glavine's sub-par year thus far including his inability to get out of the 4th inning in his opening start vs. the Reds this year. I think one of these pitchers will pitch very poorly and one of these teams will come close to getting the over on their own.
ERGGG! Sorry for the late post on this one. More later.
