Last nights pick ended our hot streak, I guess we gave Brad Penny to much credit for what he did in the past. We will give credit to Jeff Francis “The Canadian Boy” for pitching a gem on the road. He reminded me of the pitcher he was last year. Hopefully, when the Rockies fianlly become healthy they can start playing the way they did last year.

Todays pick were taking the St. Louis Caridnals (-118). The pitching matchup Cardinals Wellemeyer (6-1, 3.16) vs Nationals Lannan (4-5, 3.52).

Again were going with the away favorite it seems to be a trend in our picks lately, but will go with whats working for us. The Cardinals are 5-0 this year against the struggling and injured Nationals. The Cardinals are also 5-0 against National League East opponents, while the Nationals are 8-10 against Central teams. The Nationals also have a losing record at going 13-16, while the Cardinals are 14-12 on the road.

Pitching Notes

• Wellemeyer is 0-1 with a 5.40 ERA and a save in seven relief appearances against Washington (24-35).
• Lannan’s only career start against the Cardinals on April 6 resulted in a 3-0 loss as he allowed two runs and seven hits in 6 2-3 innings.

Todays pick were taking the Anaheim Angels (-130). The pitching matchup - Angels Santana (7-2, 3.09) vs Mariners Washburn (2-6, 6.54). Yes thats right were taking a visiting favorite, how can we resist on a matchup like this. Sanatana has finally come into his own and is pitching like the ace of the staff and Washburn is exactly like his last named washed up. Anaheim is a proven team and one of the elites in the MLB, a team like this will have no difficulty winning on the road. Unlike Seattle who cant seem to find a way of putting the pieces to the puzzle together, they struggle at home and on the road.

Pitching Notes

• the right-hander was 10-21 with a 7.14 ERA on the road, but he’s turned that around by going 4-1 with a 3.83 ERA in six outings away from Anaheim in 2008. Santana is 1-1 with a 9.88 ERA in three career starts at Safeco, but he’s 4-0 with a 3.86 ERA in his last six starts against the Mariners.
• Jarrod Washburn (2-6, 6.54) Washburn, who pitched for the Angels from 1998-2005, gave up four runs and 10 hits over six innings on April 19 to fall to 4-3 with a 4.47 ERA in eight career outings against his former team.

Nothing really knocked us off our feet today as we scrolled through all the games. We have to remind all you gamblers out there, “Dont play if there is nothing you like”. Gamblers often think that they have to get involved in a game even if they dont really like anything. Ask yourself “Are you placing a wager for fun or are you doing it to make money?”.

Todays pick were taking the Arizona Diamondbacks (-240). The pitching matchup - Indians Webb (9-2, 3.01) vs Nationals Bergmann (1-1, 4.50). We rarley like to get involved in games were we have to lay 2.4-1 on our wager but how can we resist the Diamondbacks. They have lost 5 straight, they play a horrible team in the Nationals and their ace of the staff Brandon Webb is pitching tonight. We will recommend this be very careful tonight as this is a huge line dont risk the house or anything, risk enough were if u do lose it won’t hurt you. Remember that you are gambling against the house, and they always seem to have the edge on us.

Pitching Notes

• Webb is 2-2 with a 3.89 ERA in six career appearances – five starts – against the Nationals franchise
• Bergmann has made three starts against the Diamondbacks, going 0-1 with a 6.59 ERA
