MLB: April 6th 2011 Picks


Recommended Posts

MLB Overall 2011 11-5 +7.42 units (68.75%) Rockies -117 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes Just like I said about the Giants, its clear the Dodgers are having some run scoring woes. Billingsley is just 2-8 in his last 10 against the Rockies Tigers -124 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes Have a feeling people are too in love with the O's right now. Last time they started 5-0, they won the World Series. Verlander at these odds seems like great value.

Re: MLB: April 6th 2011 Picks Just chipping in with my picks. 11pts win Tampa Bay at -107 with bet365 Tampa has to win one sooner or later and the Angels bullpen looks very shaky to me. 9pts win Philadelphia at 5/7 with bet365 think there has been an over-reaction to last night's result, where Hamels imploded. Phils are way better than the Mets and Pelfrey has an ERA of 8+ in Philly Good luck all :hope

Re: MLB: April 6th 2011 Picks overall 1-1 +0.25 units Tigers @1.74 bet365 Really like Verlander this year to make something special, he won last 7 starts against Orioles. Orioles are off to a great start, thanks to superb pitching. Bergesen is on the mound tonight, and Tigers can hurt him. Against rigthies Tigers are batting .259 with 4.91 R/9, and Orioles are .242 with 4.15 R/9.

Re: MLB: April 6th 2011 Picks Philly -1.5 @ 2.51 pinnacle Blanton looks to even up this series for Philly as he has done well in the past against the Mets, going 3-0 with a 1.27 ERA in 4 home starts. He finished off last season well, and like him to continue that form here. Facing him is Pelfrey who allowed 5 runs on 4 hits in the 6-2 loss at Florida. Last year he struggled on the road and looks like he has started that way again this year, as he went 1-6 with a 6.57 ERA in his last 10 road starts last year. In Philadelphia, he is 1-2 with an 8.17 ERA as he allowed 6 runs in his only start there last season in the 10-0 loss to Philly. Detroit -1.5 @ 2.22 pinnacle Verlander started the season reasonably well with 3 runs on 3 hits and 4 walks in the 6-3 loss to the Yankees but expect him to improve against Baltimore here. He is 5-0 with a 2.52 ERA in 7 starts against them which Detroit has ended up winning each one, and last year he allowed 2 runs in the 6-2 win over them, and struck out 11 batters then. Bergesen comes in to pitch for Baltimore and he is 1-2 with a 3.86 ERA in 3 starts against Detroit. Believe Verlander outpitches him here and sets up a Detroit win as they have a good batting line up to match what Baltimore has done so far Cincinnati -1.5 @ 2.23 pinnacle Like Volquez to bounce back from his poor opening start where he allowed 5 run in the 7-6 victory over Milwaukee as he meets a team he had success against, going 4-0 with a 1.34 ERA in 5 starts against Houston. Houston continue to struggle to hit the ball, like last year, while pitching has also been an issue for them. Figuroa had problems during the spring and against a pretty good batting line up, believe that he will give up some runs here. Boston -1.5 @ 2.04 pinnacle Matsuzaka looks to give Boston their first win as he has a good record against Cleveland, going 4-1 with a 2.34 ERA, including allowing just 1 run and 9 hits in 2 games against them last year. In Cleveland, he has played their twice to allow just 4 hits all up, so Boston will be looking for another very good pitching performance from him. As for Cleveland, they have Talbot opens his season and has some limited action against Boston, starting once and also one relied appearance where he has a 7.71 ERA to show for it. April picks: 3-6 (-1.67)

Re: MLB: April 6th 2011 Picks

whats up with the red sox?
Thought this was the right match up to get out of their slump. Maybe too much expectations that they would win it has already gone into the players heads. They stuffed this 4 team parlay though
