Yesterday's Recap- I had another solid day yesterday going 3-1 picking up another 3.4 units. Im now 6-2 in my last 8 picks, and up 7.41 Units since posting on the site!I had a couple close calls yesterday including the Giants 2 run walk off ( i had the run line). Its nice to win a couple you shouldn't every once in a while!

Not as many games to look at today because its Thursday, but found some good ones!

Detroit Tigers @ Boston Red Sox- This might be a little homer pick being a huge White Sox fan, but i really think the Red Sox will finish off this sweep (bringing the REAL sox only 1.5 games back). Bucholtz's numbers are deceiving this year because he has only had 1 bad start since being called up. He gave up 7 runs a couple starts ago but besides that has never given up more than 3 earned in a game. Also Verlander is a completely diffrent pitcher on the road. He ha one of the best home ERA's in baseball posting a 2.11, but is fastly aproaching a 5 ERA on the road. Look for the Red Sox to break out the brooms.
~ Red Sox -110, Bet 2.2 Units to win 2

Texas Rangers @ Cleveland Indians- This will be my play of the day, as you can tell from the picture. This has a lot to do with the pitching matchup, as Sowers (pictured above) has been on fire lately. He has posted a 1.80 ERA in his last three starts. He is also a full run better at home than on the road. On the flipside Feldman is in a tailspin posting over a 7 ERA in his last three starts. Cleveland has been playing very well lately against some tough teams, and winning 5 of their last seven. Look for them to take anoter series today in this matinee game.
~ Indians +100, Bet 3 Units to win 3

Philadelphia Phillies @ Chicago Cubs- This is another game that im picking because of the pitching matchup, but im going with a total on it. I try to bet a lot of totals because they always seem to jump out at meet. For example on this one Cliff Lee is 2-0 with a 1.12 ERA since joining the defending world champs. You can go even further back and look at his numbers and notice how well he has been pitching. Dempster alls looks like he might be turning a corner. He has posted a 3.71 ERA since coming off the DL, and looks like he is regaining last years form. This total is set way to high in my opinon.
~ Under 9.5 -110, Bet 2.2 Units to win 3

Good Luck and Good Night!
