    PrimeT's Picks

    I have been having some decent success in picking games so I decided to start a thread. I’ll do my best to keep up but likely won’t have time to do this everyday.

    6/12/12

    Red Sox ML (-109) 1 Unit

    I am going to take a shot with Boston and Buchholz at a good price. CB’s last three starts have been great (after a rocky start to the season) where he has allowed 2 ER’s or less and about a 5:1 K/BB. Miami’s offense has been not exactly been setting the world on fire and have never faced CB. On the other hand, the Red Sox are familiar with Buehrle and have some very nice numbers against him. I like the Sox to get off the snide and win tonight.

    Brewers -1 RL (-121) 2 Units

    I am going with a hot Greinke against his former struggling team. Greinke has won 2 straight and allowed 1 run or less in 5 of his last 6 starts. I am aware his road split is not awesome but digging deeper those numbers are skewed by a few rotten games earlier in the year (save for the recent AZ game). KC on the other hand is struggling mightily as they are coming off being swept by the Pirates and losing 2 out of 3 to the Twinkies. Not to mention Mendoza is making a spot start for an injured Paulino out of the bullpen and is 1-2 with a 6.08 in 5 starts this year. I think the Brewers win this one by more than a run.

    Tigers ML (-139) 1 Unit

    Tigers against the Cubs at a low number – the pretty much says it all. If the Tiger don’t win, shame on them…

    Best of luck everyone.

    Brewers get one hit off a spot starter and Detroit commits 2 errors in one inning to lose. Gotta love it.

    1-2

    -2.6 Units

    Not much time today but I locked in last night Strasburg and the Nats on the ML this afternoon for 1 Unit (-143).

    For now, also going to take LAA ML (-140) tonight for 1 Unit. We'll see if anything else looks appealing.

    Washington and Stras get it done for good start to the day.

    Going to add:

    Yankees ML (-105) - 1 Unit

    Kiruoda has been on a roll as have the rest of the Yankees starters (save for maybe CC) allowing 0, 2 and 0 ER's in his last 3 starts while going at least 7 in each. Hudson tossed a shutout against Miami last time but had been shaky in his previous two starts and generally has had rough go against teams that can hit a little (StL, Nats, Rocks compared to Marlins, Cubs, Pirates). The Yankees are hot and I like them to stay that way while getting a great price.

    After looking at the Yanks some more, I am going to add a unit. So for today, I have:

    Nats ML (-143) 1 Unit - Winner
    Angels ML (-140) 1 Unit
    Yanks ML (-105) 2 Units

    Best of luck everyone.

    A nice night as I go 3-0 for +4 Units.

    Nats ML (-143) 1 Unit - Winner
    Angels ML (-140) 1 Unit - Winner
    Yanks ML (-105) 2 Units - Winner

    That brings the picks here to 4-2 for +1.4 Units. At first glance, I did not see much for today, but will keep digging (but not force anything).

    Before going to bed, I locked in the following:

    6/19

    Reds/Indians o9.5 (-115) 1 Unit

    After these guys combined for almost 20 runs tonight, I like them to put some more crooked numbers on the scoreboard tomorrow with two gas cans on the mound. Both Leake and Tomlin come in with ERAs in the 5's and some ugly peripherals. I see this number going to 10 overnight.

    Red Sox ML (-150) 1 Unit

    Buchholz just shut down the Marlins in Miami 5 days ago and looks to remain hot. I like him to do so against a Marlin team averaging less than a run and half in its last 5 games (including 2 shutouts against the Rays). Also Buhrle has exactly held the Sox down in Fenway with about a 5.00 ERA in 6 career starts there. This is close to the limit I will play on a ML, but I feel comfortable that the Sox get it done.

    Adding:

    White Sox -1RL (-150) 1 Unit

    Its a chalky kind of day on the board and I am going to minimize some of it playing -1 RL on the CWS. Peavy is having a nice bounce back year and I think everyone expects him to beat the Cubbies tonight.

    That's about all I have time to say - back to work...

    Well apparently Cincy and Cleveland spent all their runs the day before as they combine for 5 and the White Sox don't hit a lick for Peavy.

    6/19

    1-2 -1.65 Units

    Totals

    7-6 -1.51 Units

    Today I am rolling with Texas -1 RL (-150) 2 Units and Pirates/Twinkies u8.5 (-120) for 1 Unit. Best of luck.
