FRIED-DAY MLB SELECTIONS:

[TORONTO-VIGILANTE]

still not putting any money down since I've come back to post my picks.(since WEDNESDAY)

yesterday: 3-0 +3.7 units
since june 26th : 11-7 +3.15 units

tonite's slate of games:

1) taking KC (+180) against CLEVLAND.
K.C seems to have gotten a bit of their confidence back as they swept the TIGERZ in KC. SUPPAN has pitched many close games this season and has not been rewarded for his efforts. BUrba has been hit hard in his last few, but he seems to pitch better @HOME. I know we all get scared to lay down the green towards a home fav, and with the way things have been going lately, I see the K.C magic might just continue in this first game as K.C surprises the home team.
CLEV'S bullpen hasn't been too great in their last 3 games (ERA 4.99) and all three game 1's in this series has gone OVER.

taking KC (+180) and the OVER 10.5 (-120)

more to come.

now just in case i lose the first game, gotta cover my back.

GAME 2: CUBS (-125) vs CINCI.
B.REITH is 0-3 at home with a 3.20 ERA, not bad. BERE is 2-2 on the road with a 5.05 ERA.
CUBS have owned the REDS this year, and i see this trend to continue as the CUBS make up for the game lost last nite.
CUBS bullpen the last 3 games : ERA 7.23
hopefully Bere wil go atleast 8 in this one.
CINCI bullpen last 3: ERA 5.80
cubs swept the first 6 games home and away until last nite. Look at the CUBBIES to get back on track today.

laying it on the line tonite.

GAME 3: COLORADO vs RANDY JOHNSON.
RANDY has NOT lost two games in a row this season. D-BCKS playing at home vs division rival (23-12 vs west division) and ASTACIO doesn't look like he's gonna get better anytome soon. D'BACKS Bats are smoking,

taking ARIZONA -1.5 (-115)


(THIS IS THE 2nd time THIS WEEK I'm TAKING ARIZONA AT -1.5 AT home...)

 

[TORONTO-VIGILANTE]

last time colorado played on the road, they were SWEPT by a hot HOUSTON team.
hopefully the same will happen here.

 

[TORONTO-VIGILANTE]

last game:

game 4: FLORIDA/PHILLY over 9 ( -105)

two high scoring games in the double-header yesterday, 9 out the last 10 games in this series have gone over, why not another one?
CHEN usually AVG. about 6 innings per game, and the philly bullpen has been horrible lately (last 3 : ERA 7.64)
SMITH's ERA on the road is around a 5.00
CHEN's home ERA is 4.45.
both team's batters are hitting the crap out of the ball.
once again , in this game we that these starters just faced each other recently, and with Philly taking the last nite's double-header, maybe one might wanna play a small wager on florida tonite, but that's just a thought.

I'm not gonna go past 5 picks tonite.
