This is my 7 PM picks. Gonna post my later picks around 7:30....
Blue Jays +105, $100 to win $105
Marcum have been great this year. In his L3 games he got a 2.70 ERA with a 1.25 WHIP. He gives up only 0.9 HR/9 and 0.6 HR/6. He comes of the DL today and should be on a pitch count, but the Jays pen should manage to help him with a 2.01 ERA in his L3 and a 2.74 ERA overall this season. The Jays have been batting good lately too. Against lefties in their L10 they got a .319 batting avg with 7.57 R/9.
Olson have been struggling so far with a 10.2 ERA and a sky high 2.13 WHIP in his L3. He is also giving up 2.4 HR/9 in his L3 while K's only 5.4 pr 9th inning. The O's pen havn't pitch good lately recording a 4.23 ERA in their L3.
So far Olson havn't figured out the Jays lineup posting a 17.03 ERA and a WHIP of 3.31 in two careere starts. It's not only Olson who struggles against the Jays, the O's are 1-4 in their L5 meetings and they are 2-8 in Olsons L10 vs American League East.
Cons:
The O's are 8-1 in their L9 Tuesday games and they are a good home team with a 28-18 record.
The Jays are 1-4 in Marcums L5 during game 2 of a series and 0-4 in Marcums last 4 starts.
Padres -117, $117 to win $100
It's been hard for Peavy to pick up wins lately, but I think that change against the Reds. Peavy have been great lately posting a 1.71 ERA with a 0.86 WHIP in his L10 and pitched for 7 innings in all of his 3 starts. The Padres batting have woken a bit lately with a .281 batting avg in their L10. Also their batting is good on the road where they got a .252 batting avg. Also, Peavy loves pitching against the Reds with a 5-0 record (8-0 team record) and a 2.08 ERA and a WHIP of 1.06, 4 of them on the road. Also the Padres are 5-1 in the last 6 meetings in Cincinnati.
For the Reds, Cueto is hitting the mound. In his L3 he got a high 6.16 ERA with a 1.42 WHIP. The Reds are batting for only .239 at home and .228 with 5.20 R/9 in their L10. The Reds are 0-4 in Cuetos last 4 starts as an underdog and 0-5 in their last 5 vs. National League West.
Cons:
The Reds are 4-1 in their last 5 games vs. a starter with a WHIP less than 1.15. Also the Padres are 1-4 in their last 5 vs. National League Central and 1-4 in Peavys last 5 starts vs. National League Central.
