Monday MLB Picks

308-254 +38.75 units

2-0 day yesterday....

Oakland -116 to win 1 unit

Grienke has been average this year, but his stats even out because of his great home record, hes 3-1 at home, but 4-6 with a 4.85 ERA on the road. His last few games have been terrible, hes 0-2 with a 7.71 ERA. While Greg Smith has a solid 2.30 ERA at home this year.

Orioles +154 to bet 1 unit

I see the Yankee's cooling off a little bit right now and I could see them being a huge public pick. But really, how trustworthy is Rasner? Imo, not very trusthworthy at all while Guthrie is having a decent season with a 3.5 ERA, just not getting the run support. But I believe that after the huge moral victory for the O's yesterday they start to pick up their offense and they take this one.

Mussina is starting, but I like the Orioles too.

Alexgurv87 · Jul 28, 2008

really? I still have Ranser listed but I would take them in any case

Braden is starting Monday for Oakland. Line wouldn't be that low with Greg Smith pitching.

Mr.Cover123 · Jul 28, 2008

Yahoo has Mussina and Braden starting.

Alexgurv87 · Jul 28, 2008

jesus, my pitching matchup most be all messed up, might change these picks later in that case. Gonna check it out

sorry. don't shoot the messenger.

I like the Orioles still, but I'll take Grienke in that matchup. If you take out his two starts at Chicago his road numbers aren't that horrible (3.52 era) and the A's can't hit.

diffrent website, but the lines are right just the pitching matchups were wrong in a few, gonna stick to these bets, Braden has good stats at home as does Smith. Id feel better with Smith but gonna stick with it
