I just looked at this game and I like it:
I'm on Zona over 8 -105.
I know Cook and Webb are a combined 13-1 with a combined ERA of 1.5 something, but I'm going on history.
**The dbacks have won 7 of 8 in the series.
**Webb is 10-7 lifetime with an ERA of 3.69 against the Rockies.
Hawpe and Helton both hit over 333% against him and have 7 home runs combined.
**IT's AARON FRICKEN COOK>.this can't last. The guy has been a doormat for ever.
I like the over in this one enough to post.
1 unit on Zona over 8 -105....GL tonight

I got two for ya today:
Roll with me on Detroit +115 @ Zona.
Robertson/The Unit must go
I love the Tigers in this spot. The game will surprise with a listed total of 10 1/2 and I think it goes under. It still is a pitcher's park and both pitcher's have the potential of getting in a pitcher's duel. Being a fantasy player, I follow a lot of the Dbacks who are on my teams. Byrnes, Jackson, and Young have all slowed dramatically and are hitting badly right now. I'll take that stacked Tigers lineup that is starting to show signs of life.
Detroit +115 2 units
Let's roll on the White Sox behind Danks to beat Cain and the Giants. Ultimate Capper and I talked about this game (he's a Giants fan) and we both think we have two teams going in opposite directions. Cain always has a history of being a tough luck loser and Danks has been great the last few times out. I'm backing the team that I think is heating up along with Detroit in the AL Central. Let's not forget the AL owns interleague.
Chicago White Sox -110 2 units
GL today/

5-19
Dodgers and Reds
The Reds have won 6 in a row. Normally you think of their bats...Dunn, Encarnacion, Votto, Hairston, Junior, and a slew of others are mashing. But the Reds have won 6 in a row because of pitching. Bronson has been great lately and there is no reason to back the under. The Dodgers counter with Brad Penny and he has been off to a slow start, but dominates the Reds. Looks great to me.
2** on Reds under 8 1/2
Arroyo/Penny must go

MLB SATURDAY
i HAVE 1 3*** ON THE SERVICE CARD.
HERE'S MY OTHER TWO PLAYS FOR SATURDAY FOR GP..NOT AS GOOD AS THE 3 STAR.BUT I'M ON BOTH FOR 2 UNITS APIECE:
I LIKE CLEVELAND AND THE DODGERS TO KEEP IT UNDER 8. The Dodgers bats are dead and Cleveland just hasn't been slugging like we are used to. They went over on Friday night and I can't see back to back overs.
2** on Dodgers/Tribe under 8
Park/C.C. must go
I LIKE houston and tampa to go under the number today. Wandy can give it up, but he's getting bettter every year and this might shape up to be a surprising pitcher's duel.
Houston/TB under 9
Jackson/Rodriguez must go
2** on TB under 9
GL today.

jULY 4'TH WINNERS:
DETROIT UNDER 8 1/2
DODGERS UNDER 7 1/2..BEST BET JULY 4'TH GAME OF THE MONTH$$$$$
In the Detroit game, Rogers and Bedard should hook up in a pitcher's duel. Seattle has turned the corner and phenom Brandon Marrow is the next big thing in closers. The M's bats are cold, Ichiro is having one of his worst years every, Kojihimi an All star, has been benched for rookie Jeff Clement. The TIgers are playing much better but Bedard is a quality pitcher and should give them fits today. 2**
I have the side play in the dodgers game as my service play and I love the under in this game. I hate Derek Lowe but he does real well in this spot trend wise and Sanchez has owned the dodgers.
3*** Dodgers/Giants under 7 1/2
GL today
