I've always been bad at picking baseball until recently, when I started a new strategy. It's worked so far. Here are my three picks for Thursday, July 20:
As I've been writing the past few days, the Dodgers are woeful on the road; they are 2-14 in their previous 16 stints as a visitor. That's two victories away from Dodger Stadium since June 15. Meanwhile, the Diamondbacks have won the last three times Brandon Webb has started.
Diamondbacks -1½ +120.
The Devil Rays are 17-36 on the road, the Twins are 36-11 at the Homer Dome, Johan Santana is pitching, and yadda yadda yadda, I got a free massage. Sorry, Seinfeld flashback.
Twins -1½ -140. Best Bet.
Some pitchers are a lot better at home than they are on the road. Curt Schilling is one of those guys. In fact, the Red Sox have yet to lose (8-0) when Schilling has pitched at Fenway. I expect him to overpower a very weak Texas lineup. Boston at -1½ -115 seems like a very fair price.
Red Sox -1½ -115.
I just hope I can keep it up, LOL.
