Picking a couple of ugly ones

[grey beard]

Nats again...Nats are winning one or two games per series...thought they might have won the opener of the series yesterday but their medicore pen gave it up...so we'll try again today..Bergman has been pitching well lately,..Nats have hit Arroyo almost everytime he pitches...like the 1st 5 inning and game plans both..pretty good dog in this one. Nats 3 Reds 2 after 5, Nats 5 Reds 4 game

Royals again...think they have a slight edge in starting pitching and their pen is the equal to the upstart Rays...Royals back end of the bullpen is top notch..if they have a lead by 7, they win this one..and I think they steal one in Tampa..Rays might have a letdown after their sweep of Bosox...Rays might be slightlly overrated right now and the Royals underrated..just a bit..Bannister goes a strong 6 and the Royals hold on Royals 5 Rays 4

Add a few more; it's a holiday, why not?

Add a few more; it's a holiday, why not?

Over 9 1/2 Twins/Clev...Hernadez has hit a wall..he'll be giving up 5+ a game from now until season end...and Bryd is also giving up lots...one of these guys by themselves can lead to an over...together, I think the over might be over by the 6th inning...final score, 10-9 one way or the other.

Seattle/Bedard over Tigers..Bedard hitting his stride now...Seattle bottomed out and playing better..Rogers is old and be lucky to go 5 innings...Seattle 8 Tigers 2..like the 1st 5 innings in this one as well..first 5 Seattle 6, Tigers 1.

Looking to celebrate today

Play RL ne in Seattle a good play..Tigers cool off for a day..this is Seattle's only win of the series..and think it's a big one.

Over Chisox/As..8 1/2 is the right line..As aren't the greatest hitters and Buehle's been excellent lately..Blanton is very hittable and given the Chisox were held down by a top notch starter yesterday think they take their frustrations out today...small ballpark where ball carries means a few HRs I think..just hope Buehle cools off a bit and gives up a few early..also hope that Chisox put up a lot early so they don't use their good relievers...lots of hoping here..but like this one with Chisox getting 7 or so, and As 3-4..obviously like the Chisox here as well..but Over better odds..so just play the over

Giants about even..OK, Dodgers hot, Lowe always pitches well vs Giants, Giaraappra snd Jones supposedly back...so what? Sanchez is top notch...Lowe not...Giants young hungry club, better w/o Bonds now...Jones and Gisarappara are done..if they are even playing..love to see them in the lineup for the 1st time against a young good arm...think the Lowe mastery ends today the Giants win this handily...Giants 6 Doggers 2.
