chicago white sox
hate seattle now. bet on them they lose bet on them they lose bet against them they win. there offense is horrible and jojima should be traded for a bag of apples

[pimike]

Angels +150

[Bills Hooligan]

Los Angeles Angels +150

Tampas got the better pitcher and pen to this point in the season but at any time garland can bring it. Tampas team ba is 2.51

[Wrigley]

Baltimore +145
Royals Gil Meche is 0-3 with a 9.00 ERA in three home starts playiong the value here line to high

[pimike]

ana +150. who cares who's starting, ana +150 against the rays? good enough for me.

I agree +150 angels

[sharktank1]

O's + 145
Current streak against the Royals, says this line is a gift, which I'll gladly take!

[elguason]

Hi, I'm new in this site. I'm from Venezuela. Sorry for my english.

Fri 5/9 957 Florida Marlins +121
7:35PM (EST) 958 Washington Nationals

Marlins have 4 straight wins, batting really good with Hanley, Hermida & Co., Pitching really good, if Nolasco pitch good 5 or 6 innings the game maybe easy for the fish. Nationals is an irregular team, I think that's game too many runs.

[pokernut9999]

Angels +150 : just have to take the odds here with better team,

[GoHeels12]

Houston +175: Never been a fan of Lowe and I think the Astros get a few today, still have no faith in the Dodger O

[dannyt76]

Angels +150. Both starting pitchers have good records against the opposing teams here, but I'm going to go with the Angels here. They have been on a nice roll lately and I like their chances against the Rays. Especially at +150.

[soli]

Chicago White Sox +111

Contreras is on the mound for the White Sox against Silva for Seattle. Both pitchers are struggling with era's above 4...I will go with the better batter in this case which is The Sox.

[Cee]

964 San Francisco Giants +163

SF looking to right their ship after a 1-5 road trip. They will come out swinging.

[brock]

975 Baltimore Orioles +145 won last ten vrs KC

[LT Profits]

pimike,

NO ACTION unless you add a post with analysis.

[billmunny]

979 Chicago White Sox +111

The Sox are simply the better team. Plus, Silva was 0-3 against the Sox last year, and the Sox have a far superior pen.

[THE POSTMAN!]

964 San Francisco Giants +163

I am going to keep picking these guys until they beat the Phillies because they have already put me in the hole.

[stump]

969 Toronto Blue Jays +113
jays eek out a close game

[rjt721]

Blue Jays +113

I'll take Halladay over C.C. even when both are in good form. I'm not convinced Sabathia's past his early season struggles. Give me the better starter and pen at + money.

[2Pac]

Reds +145
Mike Pelfrey is AWFUL and he wears a mouthpiece. Nuff said

[ChuteBoxe]

Toronto Blue Jays +113

I have to go with Halladay in this spot, he has a 5-0 record against Cleveland, and CC just hasn't shown he's back to form yet. I look for Sabathia to get lit early as the Blue Jay's bats liven up a little.

[diogee]

975 Baltimore Orioles +145 Orioles just snapped a 5 game skid. Neither pitcher is having a good season by any means and both teams are towards the bottom of the league in hitting so I'll take the O's as a decent value dog with the better bullpen.

[Microphone]

964 SF +167

Look for Misch to pitch a gem. Teams are usually big home dogs for a reason, but it's the Phillies in town, not the Diamondbacks.

[anjac]

Toronto +107
Both Halladay and Sabathia are getting hit for extra bases and having some control problems, But the edge goes to Halladay in the ground ballks fly balls department. Halladay gives up a lot of hits, but not that many runs.

[Checkerboard]

Houston Astros +175

I'm hoping for a quickly called Friday night matchup where Lowe doesn't get calls (LA is probably last call on a lot of parlays) . . . hopefully a low scoring matchup where rival Houston wins close with power and defense . . . good luck everybody!

[Shooter]

979 Chicago White Sox +111

Two teams that look bad right now. Seattle is in a real funk right now getting smoked by Texas over the past series. Losing Richie is probably a blessing for Seattle because he stinks. Chicago needed to leave home because playing at home does nothing for them. Jose looked solid last outing for Chicago and I'll take him over Silva in this game.

[msubulldog]

have had all I want of toronto and seattle for a while; neither team can score

chicago white sox +111
seattle has scored over 2runs in one game past eight; think it was only time I bet against them.

[mr. leisure]

white sox +111
contresas pitched a complete game last time out and seattle is ice cold

[oakas]

Chicago White Sox +111

Both pitchers are struggling right now and I think are fairly even at this point in time. Think the Sox have a much better offensive team.

[SexyMit]

Giants +167

After a 6 game road trip going 1-5, I look for them to bounce back at home with a win. And beat the phillies at home since they can't beat them in philly

[dog]

965 Houston Astros +175

Dodgers haven't seen Moehler in awhile and he will confuse them.

[MOONCRICKET]

col +132: rockies are 6-1 behind cook this year, and as much as i love peavy sd just doesnt score runs. so with both pitchers posting nearly identica numbers this year i am banking on the better lineup top to bottom with colorado here. i just think if they can eke out 3 or 4 runs they should win.

[pimike]

Astros +175 5 units

Lowe has strugled, strows bats are alive and Mohler is picting first start of the year.

Go Astros
