Today’s early pick:

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
Sunday Baseball Pick
Padres came through for the series, winning their first two games.
Let’s keep the ball rolling today with the Rays over the Red Sox. They have the edge in starting pitching, bullpen, defense, speed and bench. Archer’s on the hill and he’s lights out at home. The Rays are 8-0 in Archer’s last 8 starts as a favorite. Masterson for the Sox, over his last 3 starts has been dismal. Masterson has an ERA of 8.53 and a WHIP of 2.29 over his last three games. Rays should win this game.
Today’s pick:
Tampa Bay Rays
