5 MLB picks - Friday

Wow why so big on yanks or are you just spending your parlay?

Wilforth · 07-30-10, 12:43 AM

LB,

1) It's based on a system I've been using with both teams and SPs. Always count on the Yankees to win Hughes' starts against teams with a winning record. The exact reverse is the case for the Rays and Davis. They lose Davis' starts against teams with a winning record.

2) The road team is 2-1 in the L3 series and I expect that trend to go 3-1 here. I'm expecting the Yankees to win the first 2 games (SPs = Hughes and Vazquez) and then lose Sabathia's start in the last game of the series.

The Over should also cash easily in the first 2 games.

Can you explain your reason for taking washington tomorow, roy oswalts first start with the phillies. he will be way more comfortable behind the mound with Phi's offense, which earlier this year was horrid but lately has been effective.

VTranX · 07-30-10, 02:47 AM

I got the under for mariners vs twins and for cris sake let go of the tigers.

Kraghen · 07-30-10, 04:17 AM

Nice parlay.

runnershane14 · 07-30-10, 04:25 AM

good luck to you

GL tonight

On Yankees today. GL.

WiseGrumpy · 07-30-10, 06:32 AM

Like the Yanks and I must say I think the best bet for the Phillies game is the OVER, I wouldn't bet against the hottest team in the league.
GL.

Phillies will thump Washington. It's absurd to go against the hottest team in baseball with Oswalt making his first start. Take Philly minus the runs

The White Sox is the hottest team. The Phillies offense is still erratic and their bullpen is vulnerable. I like Washington as they're good at scoring late in the game in home games against teams with vulnerable pens. I doubt the Phillies will win Oswalt's first start for them. This might mirror Lee's start for the Texas against the O's.

My buddy is in vegas and owes me $20 so I'm goin to have him parlay these 5. Goodluck!

mp5070 · 07-30-10, 08:31 AM

Any parlay today?

Thanks

Holdin Aces · 07-30-10, 09:26 AM

I love Detroit today, I am going to wait for everyone to pound Boston and Im sure my local will have Boston -300 because he always has Boston and Yankees 20 or 30 higher than the line. I will look to get Detroit +270 for 1 unit. Good luck man and congrats on your nice parlay hit last night.

I haven't decided on the parlay but I'll post one later. These look likely to be in the parlay:

Yankees/Rays OVER 9
Angels ML (believe it!)
CFL: Edmonton -1

Yankees -115 10u

White Sox +100 5u

Nationals +155 3u

Tigers +225 3u (Tailing Lakerboy)

Mariners/Twins OVER 8.5 (+100) 2u

Like the white sox and detroit, i think tampa beats the yanks and philly takes down the nats. over in the twins game looks good, but i rarely bet totals.

Love the Angels, and on top of that seems most SBR posters seem to be are texas

TonyP · 07-30-10, 09:30 AM

I also don't fancy betting totals much but I like Overs than Unders. As for the Mariners/Twins game, the Mariners have good numbers against Baker and I believe both pens will help to take this one Over.

Baker will be real good tonight. Twins will not have trouble winning this game. Believe Baker is 6-2 or 6-3 at home this year..

obamaismyuncle · 07-30-10, 09:35 AM

And I will be at the game..

Ralphie1412 · 07-30-10, 09:37 AM

I wanna hammer the yanks too, I just cant though.

Might tail LB on the Tigers for half a unit.

I like Marcum -1, and Carpenter -1.

I'm tailing him too. I also think the Dbacks (+120) will spoil the day for the public as I think they'll will beat Pelfrey and the Mets tonight.

Ninersnut · 07-30-10, 09:44 AM

GL man like the yanks

obamaismyuncle · 07-30-10, 09:46 AM

twins rockies and blue jays tonight

also looking at white sox, phils, angels

PuckCoach · 07-30-10, 10:11 AM

Lot of Philly fans making the 2 hour drive south for Roy's debut.

I'm rollin' with the White Sox tonight too..twins, rockies, white sox and jays..staying away from philly and the angels.

chaseutleyfan26 · 07-30-10, 11:44 AM

taking washington over philly today is going to be a risky move. not saying its a definite loss or a definite win, but a new pitcher on his first start for a new team is never something i would bet on.

Gtawatson · 07-30-10, 11:47 AM

nice lets hope your right im on a roll lately so i will go with my instincts which are similar to your picks
