    Nickelicious MLB Picks for 8/20
    Haven't done a pick post in a while, see if I can get the rust out with a one-day post. CK woke me up to the Philly game, had most of the rest of these last night.

    Phi RL +120 2 units
    StL ML -160 2 units
    SF ML -130 1.5 units
    Bos ML -165 1.5 units
    Sea/Det U8.5 1.5 units
    LAA ML -155 1 unit
    TBay RL -140 1 unit

    Lots of favorites, I know, but I get the sense that the division races are getting hotter and I am betting on the contenders to show their strength against some weaker opponents. Bet ML instead of RL in most cases to avoid getting burned by tight games. Will generally need to win 5 out of 7 of these to show a solid profit.

            0-2 in afternoon games, down 3 units. So what does a smart bettor do? Lick your wounds and wait for the night games.

            What do I do? Chase losses!

            Adding 1 unit each to Phi, StL and LAA wagers stated above.
            Adding Wash RL +1 for 1 unit

                    If obama can throw out a crazy parlay, why shouldn't I take a shot? Just because I'm dumber than him? Ha! Why should that stop me??!!!

                    TAMPA BAY: J SHIELDS -1.5 (-125)
                    LOS ANGELES A: J LACKEY (-160)
                    PHILADELPHIA: J BLANTON -1.5 (+120)
                    ST LOUIS: J PINEIRO -1.5 (+110)
                    CHICAGO N:GORZELANNY (+130)

                    $30 to win $843

                      Goodluck on the parlay like the Cubs, Angels, Philly -1.5, and Cards -1.5, just disagree on the Rays. BOL!
