Picks of the Day

Total: 200.68 Units

Utah Jazz -4.5 over Washington Wizards
Bet .70 Units to win .64 Units

If I lose this one I will likely retire from basketball betting (something I should have done a long time ago anyways), but this one seems pretty easy to me. Jazz have dominated this series through and through, and at home with the chance to eliminate, a 5 point victory strikes me as likely.

Atlanta Braves -1.5 over Washington Nationals
Bet 2 Units to win 1.60 Units

Tim Hudson is back to his true ace self, and Jarome Williams and the Nationals aren't exactly a terrifying force. The Braves SHOULD cruise to an easy victory in this one.

Milwaukee Brewers over Philadelphia Phillies MONEYLINE
Bet 1 Unit to win .95 Units

I still think the Brewers are legit, and Claudio Vargas has pitched well this season. He should be able to out-duel Adam Eaton.

Florida Marlins @ Pittsburgh Pirates UNDER 8.5 runs
Bet 1 Unit to win .95 Units

The Marlins' bats have been ice cold, and Sergio Mitre (of Florida) has pitched well enough this season to believe he can handle the Pirates. I see this being a pretty low scorer.

Tampa Bay Devil Rays -1.5 over Texas Rangers
Bet 1 Unit to win 1.40

Lights-out James Shields faces off against... lights-in?... Brandon McCarthy. Tampa Bay will have to score some runs, but I think Shields will do his part.

Oakland Athletics -1.5 over Kansas City Royals
Bet 1 Unit to win 1 Unit

The A's pitching has been outstanding this year, and Joe Kennedy has been no exception. With Brian Bannister taking the mound for the Royals, this really shouldn't be too difficult for the A's.

Good Luck!

Results: 1.76 Units Lost (198.92 Units)
