Expos blowing the game cost me a nice day since I had them for 5* which is about as big as I usually play a game.

4/8 Monday MLB Lightning Strikes

4/8 Monday MLB Lightning Strikes

***ALL PITCHERS LISTED***

NL
Marlins ?140 ? 3* ? Young P A.J. Burnett is poised for a breakout season. As many others have stated, the Marlins seem to own Armas Jr.

Phillies +100 ... 2* ... Braves had to go 14 to beat the Mets yesterday, therefore, the bullpen was used a great deal. They traveled to Philly and must face Vincente Padilla who was the Phils best pitcher in the Spring and beat them 3-1 last week in Atlanta. I'll take a shot today at even money.

AL
Twins ?110 ? 2* ? Twins startrer Eric Milton better than the Indians young P Ryan Drese at this point. Both teams playing good ball so I??ll go with the better and more experienced pitcher.

Indians/Twins over 9ov -120 ? 2* ? Already was considering this over before and reports say the wind is blowing out at Jacobs field so I?ll take a shot.

Blue Jays/Yankees over 9 ? 2* ? Really like this one as both lineups can smack the ball and P David Wells coming off a shutout.

Good Luck!

Added the Phillies +100 above ...

The over already in on the Tribe/Twins game ... unfortunately, the Twins are getting stomped 9-4 so a split looks likely.

Also, downgraded the Marlins to 3* and the Yanks over to 2*.

GOOD LUCK!

Additions:

Blue Jays +155 ... 2* ... The Jays can flat out hit and Prokopec is a decent young pitcher. I think those two factors make this a good value play. Plus, I don't expect Wells to throw another shutout as evidenced by my play on the over as well.

Angels +110 ... 2* ... I like the Angels w/ Washburn at home slightly better than the Mariners w/ Abbott here. Washburn was another decent pitcher who started the year with a terrible game. Most are coming back strong in their next start. IMO Abbott should not be in the Mariners rotation over hard-throwing youngster Joel Piniero.
