July 5th Plays

[Destructor D]

I've been on a very nice run for the past month and hoping it continues.

KC +165 for 8*... Going to the game and I like the way Kansas City has been swinging the bats. Duckworth isn't anything special, but he's serviceable and hopefully the Royals carry forward some momentum for their win last night.
Prediction: KC 7-5

Oakland +123 for 3*... I'm not a big fan of Saarlos, but it's the only day game and I like Oakland as the home dog in this spot. I feel Detroit is overdue for a rough skid where they lose a few in a row.
Prediction: Oakland 5-3

[Destructor D]

Going out to the ballpark and going to play every game after spending a lot of time capping this afternoon.

Philly +124 for 3*... Phillies own the Padres and I believe the Padres have lost 11 straight to Philly. Peavy is just 4-8 and not pitching like normal.

Washington -148 for 2.5*... Petit isn't supposed to be much and Washington should have mometum after Zimmerman's walk off yesterday.

Colorado -112 for 2.5*... Rockies are tied for 1st place and get to face a Rockie reject in Jamie Wright. I'll gladly take Colorado at this small price.

Arizona +160 for 2.5*... I don't like the way Penny has pitched lately and I have to believe Zona will come ready to play after getting spanked consecutive nights.

Milwaukee -107 for 3*... Reds are starting to tailspin and I like Milwoblee at this price after drama filled victory yesterday.

Cleveland +112 for 3*... Sure the pinstripes will be ready to play, but Tribe's bats are hot and Mussina has been average the past month.

Tampa Bay +108 for 3*... Tough to expect the D-Rays to beat Boston on consecutive days, but nice SP edge for the Devil Rays has me backing them again tonight.

Houston -1.5 (-120) for 2.5*... Oswalt vs. Marshall is a huge mismatch and Scrubs are the worst offensive team in baseball. Disastros win 7-3.

Mets -1.5 (-105) for 2*... Not very wild about this game, but I can't back the Pirates who are 9-32 on the road.

St. Louis +111 for 3*... Cards finally got a little bit of their swagger back yesterday and just a feeling the Braves bullpen fails them tonight.

Toronto +112 for 2.5*... Janssen finally looked good in his last start so going to ride him deep in the heart of Texas.

Anaheim +120 for 3*... Halos are suddenly playing much better baseball having won 4 straight. Another win tonight and the Halos can climb into the thick of the AL West race.

Baltimore +140 for 2.5*... Only weak link in White Sox staff is Garland. Orioles were destroyed yesterday and come back for a win tonight.
