July 18, 2014 Sports Picks

Yesterday was going just fine until Josh Donaldson hit a 3 run homerun in the bottom of the ninth to help the A's win 5-4.  That homerun contributed to me going 1-2-1 for -$235.  It happens in this profession.  Just need to pick myself up!  Overall, I am 12-5-2 for +$1,031.

For today, here are my picks:

Giants vs. Marlins under 7.5 -120 $240 to win $200
- Tim Hudson is having another great year with a 2.87 ERA.  He has struggled a bit over the last 30 days but has a 2.95 career ERA against Miami, 2.52 ERA on the road and 2.06 ERA in night games.  On the other side, Henderson Alvarez has a 2.63 ERA on the season and three complete games.  He has really good numbers over the past 30 days (3-1 with a 2.81 ERA).  He has a home ERA of just 1.56. 

 Tigers G2 ML -175 $350 to win $200
- Detroit has a huge pitching edge in this game with Max Scherzer vs. Zach McAllister.  Scherzer is 11-3 with a 3.35 ERA on the season and McAllister is just 3-5 with a 3-5 5.63 ERA.  Scherzer has been really hot lately and has just a 1.61 ERA over the last 30 days.  McAllister has a 5.02 career ERA against Detroit and a 6.46 ERA on the road.

Astros ML -108 $108 to win $100
- Hector Noesi pitches for the White Sox and he is not having a good season.  He has a 3-7 record with a 5.26 ERA.  He has a 7.27 ERA against Houston, a 5.15 ERA at home and a 4.63 ERA in night games.  For the Astros, Dallas Keuchel is having a very good season going 9-5 with a 3.20 ERA and 3 complete games.  In his last game against the White Sox he pitched 6.1 innings and gave up just four hits and two runs in the win.  He has struggled a bit over the last 30 days so keep that in mind.
