I can't use my formula to predict games until about 20 have been played, so I am just going to have fun and pick some with what I hope is a little sound logic. I am using the odds off of sports.yahoo.com.
Pick Giants (1.5) at the Dodgers.
Lincecum is going against Clayton Kershaw of the Dodgers. I like Lincecum, even though he did have a higher ERA last year than Clayton. Tim has had really good Aprils over the past 3 years (12 Wins to 4 Losses). And really, other than that there isn't much to go on other than he is a member of the reigning world champs. Clayton has 6 Wins to 5 losses for his last three springs.
Pick Padres (1.5) at the Cardinals.
I'm betting against my team, which will probably lead to my doom. It doesn't really makes sense either because the Cards ace Carpenter is going against a Tim Stauffer, a new starting pitcher that is making his transition still to the starting position as he spent most of last year in the relief. I am just pessimistic about Carps health. I hope he doesn't get hurt and honestly because I have no money on the line I hope the Cards actually win.
Game I should probably add on just because it seems like a good bet is LAA (-1.5) at KCR. I'll know tomorrow anyway, haha.
