[AGurv]

MLB Overall 2011 8-4 +4.86 units (66.66%) Pirates +139 to bet 1 unit @ 5dimes Pirates won't come back to reality for a couple more weeks. But this is the perfect pitching matchup for the Pirates to get some offense going. Braves -105 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes Last season the Braves demolished the Brewers at home all 3 times they played.

Re: MLB: April 4th 2011 Picks Baltimore -1.5 @ 2.56 pinnacle Baltimore swept Tampa Bay on the road and like them to win their home opener, as they are the surprise packet of the season so far. They have scored 12 runs in these 3 games, while their pitchers and fielders allowed just 1 run in each of the 3 games with Tampa Bay. Arrieta faced Detroit last year and allowed 1 run on 7 hits in 6.1 innings in their 7-5 loss to them while Porcello allowed 12 hits in the 2-1 loss to Baltimore last year. Like the way the Orioles are playing and like them to continue their good start to the season here. St Louis -1.5 @ 2.36 pinnacle Liking St Louis to do well in their home opener as they face a pretty ordinary pitcher in Morton who went 2-12 with a 7.57 ERA in 17 starts last season. He is up against Lohse who had a good spring training, allowing just 5 runs in 5 starts, and likes pitching against Pittsburgh where he is 5-1 with a 3.41 ERA in 10 games. With Puyols leading the way, who likes facing Morton, as well as Pittsburgh in general, then like St Louis to do well here and register a home win April picks: 1-3 (-1.72)
