Alright well yesterday I made my first post and went 3 out of 4, not too bad overall had a decent day. There are some interesting lines on the books today I'll pick out the games I really like and an upset pick:
Mets -165 over the Brewers: Doug Davis has more walks than K's and has been able to find the strike zone consistently to save his life. I think Pedro will make the young Brewers look silly today with his 20 different arm angles and mixing speeds.
White Sox's -160 over the Twins: No way can the White Sox's lose 3 in a row to the Twins. Yesterday was a tough lose and I'm willing to venture big that the White Sox's come out detrimined to lay a beating on Silva and the Twins. Silva in his last start against the White Sox's got rocked.
Detroit even over Cleveland: I couldn't believe when I saw this line that Cleveland with Jason Johnson was favorite. Not only has Johnson been atrocious this year but the Indians have been downright awful the last week or so. Maroth already dominated Cleveland once this year and factor in that a struggling team has there worst pitcher on the mound I'll take Detroit big.
Rockies +134 over Houston: Tough to bet against a good pitcher at home but looking at the number Andy Pettitte looks very average this year. With a 5.66 ERA and 62 hits allowed in 47 innings you have to wonder if something is wrong with him. The young Rockies have been tough this year and they throw there best pitcher too the mound who Houston has never seen.
There are a few more I like but I had to narrow it down to 4 to analysis. I can't decide if I want to go with Oakland or not. Johnson has been terrible and keeps undergoing MRI's, but Oakland has 0 offense now that Chavez is out today.
