Jake's Picks - MLB Thursday May 17th

JakeT. · May 17, 2007

Record: 111-111
Profit: +3.52

Chicago Cubs +109
Pitchers: Guzman/Vargas

Guzman has the superior stuff. Vargas will put too many guys on and then give up a HR to a team with excellent power.

Florida Marlins -115
Pitchers: Nolasco/Armas

Two poor pitchers but the Marlins have the bats to take advantage of it and the Bucs don't.

San Francisco Giants +170
Pitchers: Lincecum/Oswalt

Houston hasn't seen the youngster yet and Lincecum could very well dominate with his excellent stuff.

The Kid May Have Stuff

but he`s a long way from being in Oswalt`s time zone. Looks like a good U.

I thought about the under. I really have tried to stay away from totals lately... just don't feel that comfortable in them.

I might throw a little bit on the under though.

Oswalt has been about as hittable as Oswalt gets lately. I think the G-men could steal this one. SF has the better pen IMO as well.

JT I Know What You Mean

totals aren`t exactly my forte either. Hit one on SD tonite, but they`re tough for me too. I know everyones going to be on Johann tomorrow, but he hasn`t been quite right lately. I may take a flyer on the Tribe, & I`m a Mn guy. BOL to you pal.

I though about going with both the Twins and Tribe, then left it alone. Johan usually starts slow and has a tough day in Cleveland, but then again, you know he's going to turn into dominant Johan before too long. Carmona has pitched well and the Twins haven't hit.

Part of me wants to take the Twins cause Johan can dominate and is a low fav.

Part of me wants to take the Tribe cause Johan hasn't done that well yet.

Good game to leave alone IMO.

JT Sorry For The Late Response

I have 2 W so far Tribe & U, was counting Mets O 9 as a los but now tied. Tonite like TB & may play on Colon as Halos bats are hot too. BOL to you.

JakeT. · May 17, 2007

Damn Cubbies. At least you got your over silver. Congrats.

JakeT. · May 17, 2007

Got SF in to save the day, easily could have been a 3-0.

Cubs had a 5-1 lead and only needed 3 outs but lost.

Florida had the same amount of hits as Pitt but had 5 freakin errors to screw me there.

Oh well, I have a thick skin for bad beats anymore. I still like to bitch about em though.

1-2 -.45

Record: 112-113
Profit: +3.07
