For me its Brewers -136 ...They are on fire right now and in my mind, Ubaldo Jimenez (1-6 5.37 era) has no shot at slowing them down. Plus the Brew Crew has their ace on the mound for them tonight, Ben Sheets.

my most sure bet is i can get some yardwork done this afternoon .
high % mlb :
am playing it strategy style for friday , hoping to do okay as opposed to bad results . check out the more than a feeling thread , should do okay . is friday though , could be disastrous . is hard to shy away from all the big aces on friday but the starter factor is just one factor so we should always keep that in mind . just because we see a #1 starter or big ace starting does not mean it is a high % $ play ...
one thing is for sure though > it is always easy to say it is and truly believe these are always great plays , but .. > like ? webb , hudson , lincecum , sheets , santana , hernandez , kazmir .. realistic finish for these 7 teams ? probably 4 - 3 or maybe an impressive 5 - 2 as much as we chalk lovers always dream of the 7 - 0 in this situation , would be normal showing for a 4 - 3 result with these teams with big boy's starting . could even be 3- 4 with only 3 of the teams getting the W when these big starters toe it tonight .
we could throw in marcum too but i wont , even though he is capable of being just as good as any other starter out there ..
if i had to give 1 best play :
angels -107
vlad or no vlad , always a puzzle , is good play regardless i guess .
descent value on hot team vs hot team . angels on 5 game win streak , a's on 4 game winning streak .
of course the best play is the yanks but you need to give up the 1.5 to mess with it which is always putting yourself in the i got screwed they won by 1 run scenario .
yanks on high after winning in dramatic fashion thurs , no travel , royals starter making 2nd start this year , could be rude ny welcome . sorry so long . as always my take could be good or terrible .. gl

For me its the CUBS they are also on fire and thanks to them I am too. I hit a little 7 team parlay yesterday to go along with a 4 team parlay and a 3 team parlay, and it all came down to Kerry Wood and the 9th inning save he produced. So for me it's another parlay day and the cubs will bring in the rear. So far this week alone i have hit 1 7team parlay 1 5 team parlay 2 4 team parlays and 3 3 tema parlays. Sorry I play my parlays spur of the moment and in my deffense I just use the teams that are posted on sites like these.

the teams with their #1 pitcher starting have done very well so far .
if anyone did the #1 ace starter 7 teamer i guess it was the braves that messed it up . mets and the brew are still left ...

mets kill parlay . results for the big aces was a predictable 4 - 3 ..
aces starting on sat are zambrano , wainwright , would have to say livan with the departure of santana ... not sure about buehrle being the ace in chic . is livan vs buehrle . talk about a hard game to break down . the minn at chic is pretty much insane to feel sure about .
wsox hot , twins are the twins and can be very scrappy . by the pitchers performances so far wsox should make contreras the #1 guy ...
who the #1 guy was coming into the season does change , to think verlander is the #1 in det is pretty scary . or was it supposed to be the gambler . geezus . my thoughts there are that the tigs will work it all out and do well soon or after the all star break . what a disappointment so far !
so we have these teams with aces starting on sat :
cubs >
cards >
twins >
