I was 2 for 2 last night....really 3 for 3 if I wouldn't have been a pansy about the Angels game. I did snag the Giants game thanks to a top of the 9th Pat Burrell homer. Still didn't get the Giants the win, but it did get the win in Vegas. I chose the Cards game correctly but not on the correct logic. Carp came through again, giving up just 2 hits, 2 earned runs and walking just 2 hitters over 7 innings. Not bad work. Turns out the bull pen had some problems that led to the demise of my team, but the win for my blog.
From now on I will decide an odd amount of games. I don't like ties in sports, non-american, therefor I will be picking odd from here on out.
Pick Rays (-1.5) vs. Orioles
I like Price on the mound. This will be Manny and Johnny Damon's intro to the Rays fans in St. Pete. I have a feeling Manny will be Manny and bring in some RBI's. Scary part is the iffy bullpen. Solid last year but they lost a lot relievers.
Phillies (-1.5) vs. Astros
Roy Halladay...enough said, yet I will continue. Phills lost some fire power in there line up from last year but I think they have enough to beat the stros by 2. Can you name 3 players in the astros line up....Berkman isn't there anymore. haha.
Dodgers (-1.5) vs Giants
Johnathan Sanchez has not gone over 4 innings as a starter in his first game of the past 3 seasons. Chad Billingsly for the Dodgers has been more solid in his starts in April. I think the Dodgers squeaked out a win against a much better pitcher yesterday, so they are ready to do work today.
No underdogs..hmm..guess I'll throw in who I want to pick as an underdog but am not officially picking.
I would pick Rangers(+1.5) vs Red Sox. Its opening day and they are back in Texas after winning the pennant. Sure the Red Sox are good, but this is just one game.
