Pluthero's Value Picks

[Pluthero]

This is my first time to create a thread and post my picks, but I've been doing better at capping lately so I thought I'd try out what other people have done and see where it goes. I won't be able to post every day, but when I can I'll try to make 5 or 6 picks. For me, 1 unit equals 1% of my bankroll. So here goes nothing...

5/28/10

Tigers -120...8.9 units
Angels even...7.7 units
Brewers -115...6.7 units
Twins -133...5.2 units
Cubs +117...4.9 units

Forgot one...Rockies -158 8.0 units

BOL everyone!

Yes, Sportsman, I do love me some underdogs. That's why I call it value picks. My record may not be over .500, but hopefully I'll be up some units at the end of the year. BOL to you too sir.

[mad_admiral]

I respect and appreciate your plays but I would reconsider the Astros tomorrow against Lincecum..Even with Oswalt on the mound I really don't think Houston has much of a chance...But no disrespect intended at all and keep the great underdog picks coming!!

[Pluthero]

What I'm hoping for with the Astros (full disclaimer: I'm an admitted hard-core Astros homer) is that with a new starting catcher and third baseman a little life gets injected into the club after such a dismal start to the season. Also, they had Lincecum on the ropes several times the last time they saw him, but they just couldn't get that elusive two-out hit they needed so badly. Thanks for the comment, for a while I thought I was just talking to myself!
