July 9, 2014 Sports Picks

Well day two was good as I went 3-1 for +350.  Overall I am 6-2 for +750.  For today I am going with these late games:

A's RL +130 $150 to win $175
- Oakland landed a very good pitcher in Jason Hammel.  Hammel is 8-5 with a 2.98 ERA on the season.  He has pitched well in his last three starts and has a lifetime 3.02 ERA against San Fran in his career.  Oakland has been hot all year and are 7-3 over their last ten games and have won six straight.  They have a very good 27-18 road record.  The Giants are just 3-7 over their last ten games and are just 25-23 at home.  Matt Cain just isn't as good as he used to be.  He is 0-4 with a 5.58 ERA over the last 30 days.  Not so good. 

A's vs. Giants over 7 EVEN $100 to win $100
- Both teams can hit and Matt Cain is not very good.  I think we see some scoring in this one. 

Twins vs. Mariners over 7.5 $165 to win $150
 -Both Kyle Gibson and Roenis Elias haven't pitched well over the last 30 days.  Elias has a 5.79 ERA and Gibson has 4.85 ERA over that span.  Gibson has a very poor 5.54 ERA on the road and 4.82 in night games.  Elias has a 5.09 ERA in night games and he gave up four earned runs in his last start against the Twins.  Both teams can hit and I think they put it together tonight.
