MLB: May 10th Picks

[AGurv]

MLB Overall 2011 51-33 +14.70 units (60.71%) Cardinals -114 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes Gotta expect Carpenter will turn this around. Other then his first start on the road when he got crushed by Zona he's been pretty pitching pretty well. Gave up 0 ER in his last game, and just 3 in the game before. Rangers -111 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes Brett Anderson has been pitching really well but he just hasn't had the run support. Anderson pitched against the Rangers on April 30th and managed to give up 7 ER. Really his only bad game all season. Lets see if the Rangers can get to him again

Re: MLB: May 10th Picks Cincinnati Reds @ 1.76 Expekt 6/10 For Reds tonight will go Homer Bailey (1-0, 1.50 ERA) who in his season debut against Houston and Myers in last Thursday has allowed one run and four hits in a 10-4 win.Bailey so far against Houston in two starts has 1-0 with a 2.31 ERA.Houston tonight will send Brett Myers(1-2, 4.47 ERA) who in his last start which was against Reds in five innings has allowed six runs and nine hits in a 10-4 loss.Myers so far against Reds in 13 appearances(11 starts) has 3-4 with 4.46 ERA.I think that Reds with Bailey can again to win Houston and Mayers.Also Houston bullpen in last six games has 8.79 ERA.

Re: MLB: May 10th Picks Boston Red Sox @ 1.65 William Hill 6/10 Boston tonigh will try to reach .500 for the first time this season.For Boston tonight will go Jon Lester (4-1, 2.33 ERA) who has won his last four starts behind a 1.33 ERA while pitching at least six innings each time.Lester in his last start against LA Angels in seven innings allowed one run(solo home) and six hits while striking out a 11 in a 7-3 victory.Lester this season has met with Toronto on April 17 when he surrendered one run and six hits in six innings in a 8-1 victory.Lester so far against Toronto in 14 career starts has 8-4 with a 3.30 ERA winning five of the last six.For Toronto tonight will go Kyle Drabek (2-2, 4.50 ERA) who in the last start against Tampa Bay in five innings has allowed three runs and six hits in a 3-1 loss.Befere that start Drabek lasted only two innings agains NY Yankees and in that two innings he has allowed five runs and seven hits in a 5-4 loss.For Drabek this will be first start against the Boston.Boston has greatly improved his play and also Lester throws lot better and considering that Drabek has pitched poorly in the last two starts I think that Boston can win this game.

Re: MLB: May 10th Picks Mariners @ Orioles: Under 7.5 runs 1pt @ 2.00 (Paddy) Both Pineda [4-2] and Arrieta [4-1] have had solid enough starts to the season, giving up 2.58 ERA and 4.35 ERA respectively. Pineda has opposition batters hitting at just .210, whilst Arrieta held the Royals to just 3 hits and 1 run in 7 innings last time. Red Sox @ Blue Jays: Red Sox -1.5 1pt @ 2.052 (bwin) Lester [4-1] comes into this on the back of 6 consecutive quality starts and 4 straight wins, drawing praise from opposition batters throughout. On the mound for the Blue Jays will be Kyle Drabek [2-2] who is very much a developmental pitcher at this stage of his career. Lester's last 3 starts have yielded a stingy 1.29 ERA over 21 innings, and he can improve Boston's 4-1 seasonal record against Toronto further tonight. Phillies @ Marlins: Phillies -1.5 1pt @ 2.675 (Paddy) Taking Halladay to improve his impressive 18-1, 1.56 ERA record against the NL East since last season. Up against Josh Johnson who is 3-1 on the season with 1.68 ERA. However JJ gave up season highs last time against St Louis, and his throwing upwards of 110 pitches in each of his last 3 starts may just be catching up with him. Cardinals @ Cubs: Cubs 1pt @ 2.14 (Bet365) Cubs are the dogs tonight, which doesn't look right to me. Cards may be 20-15 to Cubs' 15-18, but look at the starting Pitchers tonight and you see that St Louis are starting Chris Carpenter who has yet to notch a win in 7 outings this season so far. Zambrano gets the nod for the Cubs, and he went 2-0 with a 2.03 ERA against the Cardinals last season.

Re: MLB: May 10th Picks Atlanta -1.5 @ 2.18 pinnacle Hudson is 4-2, with a 2.86 ERA as he allowed 1 hit in the 8-0 win over Milwaukee, and has pitched well lately, going 2-0 with a 1.52 ERA in his last 3 starts. He has liked pitcing to Washington where he is 11-2 with a 1.88 ERA in 19 starts against them, and has allowed 2 runs or less in 16 of these starts. Last month he allowed 1 run on 3 hits in the 11-2 win over them. Marquis is 3-1, with a 3.66 ERA and allowed 7 runs on 10 hits in the 7-4 loss to the Phillies, and though he is 2-1 with a 2.79 ERA in his last 3 starts against Atlanta, he is 2-4 with a 8.08 overall, and with the good batting they have showed lately, like them to get to him once again. Cleveland -1.5 @ 2.61 pinnacle Tomlin is 4-1, with a 2.43 ERA as he allowed 3 runs on 3 hits in the 3-1 loss to Oakland for his first loss of the season. He has not faced TB before but Sonnanstine has faced Cleveland and has been smashed, going 0-3 with a 10.67 ERA, while allowing 5 HR's and 25 hits in 2 starts in Cleveland. With Cleveland also returning home from a road trip, where they have won 13 games straight, as well as 18 of the last 20 games against Tampa Bay overall. Boston -1.5 @ 2.06 pinnacle Lester is 4-1, with a 2.33 ERA and has won his last 4 starts with a 1.33 ERA as he allowed 1 run in the 7-3 win over the LA Angels. He is 8-4 with a 3.30 ERA in 14 starts against Toronto, winning 5 of his last 6 starts against them, inclduing allowing 1 run in the 8-1 win over them last month. Drabek is 2-2, with a 4.50 ERA and has allowed his last 2 starts, as he allowed 3 run while walking 4 in the 3-1 loss at Tampa Bay on Thursday. Boston in good form with the bat, having won their last 3 while Toronto has lost their last 3 games May picks: 15-24 (-4.92) April picks: 45-56 (+2.52)
