MLB: July 1st Picks

[AGurv]

MLB Overall 2011 74-64 +3.23 units (53.62%) June was a rough month... Cardinals +121 to bet 1 unit @ 5dimes Like the odds here. Westbrook been pitching a bit better this year on the road. I think Davis might get touched up here. He's coming off 2 wins where he gives up 2 runs combined. That was against the Astro's and Marlins. I say the Cards bring him back to reality. Also part of the rest why the Rays have such a great inter-league record this year Dodgers +101 to bet 1 unit @ 5dimes Koruda just been unlucky with this team this year. He's 5-9 but his ERA is just 3.1 this year. Hasn't given up more then 2 runs in his last 5 starts. Twins +106 to bet 1 unit @ 5dimes

Re: MLB: July 1st Picks Toronto -1.5 @ 2.41 pinnacle Romero is 7-7, with a 2.74 ERA as he has allowed 2 runs or less in 7 of his last 9 starts (total of 15 runs) which includes just 4 runs allowed in his last 3 home starts. He has pitched at least 7 innings in each of these last 9 starts, and is 1-0 with a 1.93 ERA in 2 starts vs the Phillies.Kendrick is 4-4, with a 3.23 ERA as he allowed 2 runs on 5 hits in 4 innings in the 12-2 loss to St Louis last week. He is 2-2 with a 3.91 ERA in 5 starts this season. Like Romero's form to continue here while the Blues Jays to get a few runs off Kendrick who has been limted in his outing so far this year. Atlanta -1.5 @ 2.39 pinnacle Jurrjens is 10-3, with a 2.07 ERA as he has allowed 2 runs or less in 8 of his last 10 stars (total of 17 runs) which includes 2 runs or less in 3 of his last 4 home starts (total of 8 runs). He is 5-1 in 6 starts at home, and is 2-1 with a 1.61 ERA in 7 interleague games. Guthrie is 3-9, with a 3.93 ERA as he allowed 4 runs on 6 hits and 4 walks in the 7-5 win over Cincinnati. He has allowed at least 3 runs in 5 of his last 7 starts (total of 22 runs) and allowed 5 runs on 11 hits in his last road start in the 9.3 loss to Pittsburgh. Atlanta have won their last 3 games while Baltimore have lost their last 3 games, so like these trends to continue especially with Jurrjens pitching LA Angels -1.5 @ 2.92 pinnacle Chatwood is 5-4, with a 3.64 ERA as he has allowed 1 run or none at all in 6 of his last 10 starts (total of4 runs in these 56 starts but 17 runs in the other 4 starts). This includes 1 run in 3 of his last 5 home starts, and like him to do well here as he is 3-0 with a 0.86 ERA in interleague play, allowing 1 run and pitching 7 innings in winning these 3 starts. Kuroda is 5-9, with a 3.10 ERA as he has allowed 2 runs or less in 7 of his last 10 starts (total of 7 runs in these 7 starts but 14 runs in the other 3 starts). Howeve he has lost 6 of his last 7 starts due to the lack of run support with just 6 runs provided by his batters. Like the Angels here as they have won 3 straight games, and 7 of the last 9 meetings with the Dodgers, and their bats to do enough here and score some runs on Kuroda while Chatwood keeps them tied down. June picks: 53-72 (-2.95) May picks: 31-73 (-30.18) April picks: 45-56 (+2.52)
