April 8th Picks

I went 3 for 3 yesterday.  That puts my Wins at 13 and Losses at 7.   Using the $100 a game betting total that puts my winnings at $767.58 on the season making my monopoly money rate of return to be 38.38%.  Not bad, wish it was real money haha.  I was off on my Philly pick, Halladay was Halladay but Niese got rocked and it proves that I should never bet the over under.  I was also wrong about Cincy's young starter LeCure, he put up a great game but the Astros managed to pull it off. Tampa, poor Tampa, they did exactly what I thought they would do.

Pick NYY at Boston (Moneyline +126)
Why do I like seeing Boston lose.  I do not think they will be able to put up more runs that the Yankees line up, even though they will be going against a rival and they will be at home.  Both pitchers had horrible starts and if that continues the Yankee line up will be able to devour Lackey.

Pick Florida at Houston (Run Line -1.5 +147)
Rodriguez for Houston got lit up for 7 runs his first outing.  Nolasco gave up 2 over 7 innings.  I think Florida can put up some runs if they can get on base.  Houston got their first win yesterday and I just don't see this becoming a streak.

Pick Colorado at Pittsburgh (Run Line -1.5 +128)
I am most confident about this pick.  I don't know if that mean anything but I think De La Rosa for Colorado will be able to shut down the Pirates offense and the bull pen for Colorado has only given up 3 runs over their first 4 games.  I think it will be low scoring unless Colorado gets hot and I would take the over at 8.  Not giving up on my o/u guesses haha.
