    2013 Baseball Picks

    Going to try this out here see how it goes.. Tail or fade should be a long and eventful year.. Best of luck to all.. Starting out with this morning

    PADS+125 ($80 to win $100)
    RED SOX -105 ( $105 to win $100)
    CUBS/BUCS Over 7 ($110 to win $100)

    I believe the Mets are a team in trouble this year.. No Santana and the Pads with some young talent even without Headley.. Sox in a good spot facing a banged up Yankees team.. Lester was lights out this spring look for him to continue it going into opening day.. Lastly I like to auto fade Burnett and take the over when he pitches.. Samardzija not your typical opening day guy..Pirates usually start fast look for some fireworks at PNC Park this afternoon..

    Make$ Fellas

    Well finished day 1:

    3-3 (down 5$)

    No harm done at all.. Didnt expect Burnett to pitch that good opening day but you live and you learn.. Felt like Reds had tons of chances to win that are in extras but let them slip away.. On to day 2 plays posted shortly

    RANGERS -170 ($170-$100)

    Usually don't like laying juice like this but I think the Rangers bounce back tonight.. Darvish will continue where he left off last year and this spring.. Might have a late west coast play.. Best of luck

    Day 2 done:

    4-3 Overall ( +95$)

    Darvish was excellent and I wish he would have finished the thing off.... One of those games that feels great from beginning til the end.. Lots of baseball today here is what I like:

    YANKEES -120 ($120 to win $100)
    Looking for the Yanks to bounce back here after all the flack they have taken after GM1


    A's -145 ($145 to win $100)
    Might be a little bit of a homer pick here as I am a huge A's fan.. Not a big fan of Saunders and the A's killed lefties last year.. I will take my chances

    Day 3 Done:

    5-4 Overall (+$75)


    Loss of 20$ on the day.. Did not expect Kuroda to try and play Hero and get ran early for bare handing a ball... Expected that solid effort out of the A's against the lefty and sure enough Young hits a bomb in his first start of the year... Today here is what I like..

    Over 8.5 Reds vs Angels ($110 to win $100)

    I think the bats finally get going in this one... I expect Hamilton to have a little break out and Blanton going for Angels should get touched for at least 4 or 5... Gonna Ride the over here in Cincy

    Will be back this afternoon with some more plays... Make $

    Well we can cash this one early fellas.. Just what we like.. Big Joe gave up 5 like I hinted at and Hamilton drove in 2 and has been on base twice.. It's nice when things work out the way you expect them too.. Two plays left today gonna go to the AL East

    YANKEES -115 ($115 to win $100)
    Yes I know Andy is getting even older but guy still has great stuff.. He's a big game pitcher and although only the third game of the year I think the Yankees and especially their fans view this as a big game.. He will keep them in it and I think the offense does just enough to get it done..

    Jays -1.5 +115 (100$ to win $115)
    Another team with high expectations that has under performed out of the gate.. Looking for Buhrle to get back to his old ways being back in the AL.. I think the offense awakes in a big way gonna take them here on the RL..

    As always Best of Luck and Make$

    Well another Day done and very good going 3-0

    Overall 8-4 (+$390)

    Andy threw the gem I was hoping for and the Yankees got a much needed win.. What a roller coaster with the Jays though.. Took a 3 run lead 3 different times in this one only to let the Tribe come back after every one.. Big move by Reyes in the 8th to score from second on a double play ball that Bautista beat out bc of a kippins un clean exchange from glove to hand.. Great start to the season fellas long way to go.. Keep making$

    About 30 min to gametime boys would be nice to start this Friday with a dog hit..Not thrilled by the card today/tonight and don't want to force anything else tonight.. Long season.. Go Marlins

    Another perfect day going 1-0 with the Marlins upset win.. That's 5 in a row could not ask for a better start to the season.. All plays being recorded on Spread Sheet

    Overall Record 9-4 (+$495)

    Play for Today so Far

    ANGELS +110 ($100 to win $110)

    Day game in Arlington and I think the HALOS get their bats going... Struggling so far in this early season and nothing like a day game in TEXAS to get the bats going... Hanson makes his AL debut this afternoon and I look for him to keep a lot of these Ranger hitters off balance.. Will be back later.. Hoping to keep this run going.. Make$ fellas

    Another perfect day Boys.. Rolling Along

    Overall Record 10-4 (+$605)


    I believe that is 5 in a row and 9 of last 10.. Not to mention two straight Dog hits.. Being really selective right now not forcing any plays.. Some think I should up my units during this hot streak but I know this is a very long season and just trying to stay consistent.. On to today... Some big time Aces out there at plus $ which you usually never see.. Is it a trap? Or is there really true value behind these horses.. To start going to try and get dog win #3 in a row..

    RED SOX +110 ($100 to win $110)
    The Sox send Lester to the bump where he was lights out all spring and in his 1st start this season.. Dickey has come back to earth in the AL in the WBC and his 1st start.. No Bautista for a 3rd straight day in the Lineup and going to Ride the Sox to a W here on Sunday

    Braves -140 ($140 to win $100)
    Huddy on the mound for the Red hot Braves against The Wr from ND.. Jeffe was out standing during the opener but I see him coming back to earth her in HOT lanta.. Justin Upton off to a tremendous start and look for the Braves bats to just do enough before turning it over to lights out Kimbrel

    Best of luck in the morning fellas Make$

    Last play of the day going for 8 in a row

    ANGELS +120 ($100 to win $120)

    Weaver has been historically bad in Arlington but going against that trend... Darvish was lights out against the AAA Stros but developed a small blister in the process... The guy also threw 111 pitches in his 1st outing.. I know the public all over the Angels but public not always wrong.. Going Halos streaking for 8

    Well the streak finally came to an end as Weaver continued to be horrible in Texas

    Overall Record 12-5 (+$715)


    Still having a great start to this brand new year... On tap for today

    Yankees +105 ($100 to win $105)

    We are going to try this again with Kuroda.. Hopefully no bare handed line drives.. A lot of fans have over reacted to the slow start and I think the odds makers too.. CC was +190 yesterday against Verlander and threw a gem..

    Will be back later with more Make$

    Loss with Dodgers yesterday.. One day play today..

    Overall Record 13-6 (+$685)

    RAYS +110 ($100 to win $110)

    I like this price with Moore on the mound against a scatter brain in Holland.. Neve know what you will get with him.. Look for Longoria to hit his first bomb of year today.. Rays for the win

    Play today is a Day Game

    Giants -140 ($140 to win $100)

    Look for Vogelsong to be solid yet again... Giants will build off the sweep at home of the Rocks as they take on another bottom feeder in the Cubs.. Giants scored 10 runs yesterday and look to continue the trend today.. Giants start the Road Trip off with a W..

    No plays yesterday.. Update...

    Overall Record 15-6 (+$895)


    Two plays for the Day today...

    Rays +120 ($100 to win $120)
    Price vs Lester after the rain out yesterday.. I expect a lot better effort out of Price today than in his first two outings... The hard throwing lefty will keep the Sox offense off balance all day long... Getting a great PRICE, no pun intended, in this game with the Ace going for the Rays..

    Tigers -120 ($120 to win $100)
    Did a write up last night already on this one.. I am a die Hard A's fan and they are the hottest team in baseball.. Going against all of that to back Verlander today.. Guy eliminated them last year from the playoffs by himself.. I believe the A's struck out 17 times last night in their walk off 12 inning win.. Look for more of the same today... Big key in this one was that Crisp and Cespedes both unlikely to play after leaving mid game last night with injuries.. 1Pm start which means no rest for those two and out of the lineup they should be..

    Two Aces today at great prices... Lets keep this great season going

    Make$ fellas

    Looking like its going to be a split as long as Tigers hang on and a wash on the day games $ wise.. One play left..

    Reds -145 ($145 to win $100)
    Liking Cueto in this spot.. Hoping to see Votto get going and Phillips to continue to mash for their Ace..

    First losing day in a while..

    Overall Record 16-8 (+$750)

    Phillies -140 ($140 to win $100)
    Banking on Halladay figuring this thing out.. When a struggling pitcher takes the mound a good remedy is usually the marlins... Think it's a pretty good price considering the fact if the real Halladay was pitching in this thing would be around -200


    Jays -110 ($110 to win $100)
    Like the jays going for the sweep here today with Morrow on the mound.. They seemed to rally together without Reyes and steer the ship in the right direction.. A sweep would be huge today look for a couple of long balls to keep the W streak going..


    Will be back later for 1pm games... Make$
