Friday’s Early Baseball Pick

Cubs are glad to be back home. They are 4-0 in their last 4 home games following a road trip of 7 games or more. Hammel owns the American League East with a 7-0 resord over his last 7 games.

Today’s early pick:

Chicago Cubs

CFL Pick

Hamilton’s got injuries so Winnipeg should deliver.

Today’s pick:

Winnipeg Blue Bombers

Thursday Baseball Pick

Let’s roll with the Royals and Chris Young today. Twins are 2-6 in their last 8 at KC. Royals are 7-3 in their last 10 games with Young starting. KC ends their 3 game skid today.

Today’s pick:

Kansas City Royals

Wednesday Baseball Pick

I’m staying north of the border today and rolling with the Blue Jays. Buehrle is on the hill and the Jays fare well when he pitches. Jays are 6-2 in Buehrle’s last 8 starts at home and 4-1 in his last 5 against the Red Sox. He has a 2.14 ERA and a 0.90 WHIP over his last 3 and Porcello for the Sox has an ERA of 6.75 with a WHIP of 1.56 over his last 3. Sox are 1-6 in Porcello’s last 7 starts and 1-4 in his last 5 Wednesday games. The umpiring last night was terrible and did not favor the Jays. Today should be better for them. Cuzzi is behind home plate and the Jays are 4-0 in the last 4 when Cuzzi is officiating; the Sox are 3-14 in last 17 when he is calling the game. It’s also Canada Day so there should be a huge crowd factor.

Today’s pick:

Toronto Blue Jays

Tuesday Baseball Pick

Going north of the border today with the Toronto Blue Jays. Estrada takes the mound for the Jays and has been sharp over his last 3 outings with a 2.61 ERA and 0.82 WHIP. They are 5-0 in Estrada’s last 5 starts. On the other side for the Red Sox, Rodriguez has been awful over his last 3 outings, with a 9.82 ERA and a 1.70 WHIP. Toronto is 14-5 in their last 19 home games. I can see Joey “Bats” Bautista and company putting up some numbers. Jays should win this game.

Today’s pick:

Toronto Blue Jays

Monday Baseball Pick

Tonight I’m looking for the Athletics to end their 3 game skid at home against the Colorado Rockies. Kendall Graveman takes the hill for the A’s and has been sharp over his last 3 starts with an ERA of 2.05 amd a WHIP of 1.09. David Hale has been just the opposite for the Rockies with an ERA of 8.04 and a WHIP of 1.85 over the same span. The Rockies are just 14-48 in their last 62 interleague games and 22-59 in their last 81 road games. Oakland does well on Mondays with a 7-2 record over their last 9 and are 35-16 in their last 51 interleague games at home. Athletics should win this game.

Tonight’s pick:

Oakland Athletics
