Re: MLB: August 3rd picks Philly -2.5 @ 2.34 Pittsburgh - Chicago Cubs over 8.5 @ 2.09 pinnacle Morton is 8-6, with a 4.04 ERA as he has allowed at least 3 runs in his last 10 starts (total of 32 runs), with 19 runs in his last 5 home starts. With the Cubs coming off 21 hits last night in their 11-6 win over them, then the Cubs will be feeling confident that they can score on Morton here. Garza is 4-8, with a 3.99 ERA and while he has allowed at least 3 runs in 4 of his last 10 starts (total of 27 runs) he is 0-3 with a 5.97 ERA in his last 6 road starts, and has given up 6 runs in each of his last 2 road starts. He allowed 3 runs on 12 hits in the 5-4 loss to Pittsburgh in April this year, and though they have lost both of the games to the Cubs in this series, they have been hitting and scoring. With 7 of their 11 meetings seeing at least 9 runs scored, like this to be another one to go over the total. Boston - Cleveland over 10.5 @ 2.06 pinnacle Wakefield is 6-4, with a 5.06 ERA as he has allowed at least 4 runs in 5 of his last 10 starts (total of 39 runs) with 17 runs in his last 4 home starts. He is 12-7 with a 4.13 ERA in 23 starts against Cleveland, but with an average of 7 hits allowed in his last 10 starts, and only once going past the 7th innings, like the Indians to score some runs on him here. Carrasco is 8-9, with a 4.67 ERA as he has allowed 24 runs in losing his last 5 starts. With Boston hitting well, hard to see him not giving up runs here, as the Red Sox look to maintain their lead in the AL East division San Diego - LA Dodgers over 6.5 @ 2.06 pinnacle Stauffer is 6-8, with a 3.10 ERA and has allowed at least 3 runs in losing each of his last 2 starts. He allowed 3 runs on 3 hits in the 4-1 in LA last month against the Dodgers, where he is 3-3 with a 3.19 ERA overall against them. The Dodgers have been hitting well of late, and can see them scoring some runs here. Lilly is 7-10, with a 5.02 ERA and he allowed 1 run on 4 hits in beating Stauffer and the Padres last month. However he is 0-2 with a 3.38 ERA in 4 starts in SD. Lilly has allowed at least 3 runs in 6 of his last 10 starts (total of 36 runs) with 10 runs in his last 2 road starts. SD will be looking to avoid losing 3 games staright to the Dodgers so expect them to be even more focused to score runs here. Both pitchers are capable of giving up 3 runs each here to send this one over August picks: 3-6 (-2.88) July picks: 54-62 (+3.14) June picks: 53-72 (-2.95) May picks: 31-73 (-30.18) April picks: 45-56 (+2.52)
