The Atlanta Braves have suddenly become Road Warriors, and they have their ace Tim Hudson on the hill when they visit the Texas Rangers tonight. Yes, the Braves are still a woeful 10-25 on the road, but they have now won three of their last four contests away from home after a 7-1 win at Colorado last night. They are also 7-2 all time vs. the Rangers, including 4-2 here in Arlington. Hudson has been pitching extremely well with little to show for it, and he is due to accumulate some wins given his fine form. He has now reeled off five consecutive Quality Starts, allowing two runs or less in four of them and exactly one run in each of his last two outings. Yet amazingly, the Braves have lost his last four starts! Texas starter Vicente Padilla has been the polar opposite of Hudson in that his record is better than it should be because the potent Rangers offense supports him so well. Padilla is 8-3 on the year despite a rather high 1.45 WHIP (compared to 1.14 for Hudson), and he has a 6.00 ERA and 1.56 WHIP in his last three starts, yet the Rangers are 2-1 in those outings. The outcomes for these two pitchers have to catch up to their key numbers eventually, and an Atlanta win tonight is a step in that direction. MLB Free Pick: Braves -115

Free MLB Picks: San Diego Padres (160)

The San Diego Padres simply ooze value at this price with Randy Wolf on the hill tonight vs. Andy Pettitte and the New York Yankees. Wolf is quite simply in raging form right now. He has recorded six straight Quality Starts, but that does not tell the entire story of just how hot he has been, as he has allowed exactly one run in each of his last three starts and exactly two runs in the two starts before that. Pettitte is but a shell of his former self, and he has become rather inconsistent this season, seemingly alternating good and bad efforts. One constant for Pettitte though has been his poor pitching at home, where he is 1-3 with a 6.25 ERA and a1.47 WHIP. The last time he pitched in Yankee Stadium, he was torched for 10 earned runs in 6.2 innings by the Kansas City Royals. Finally, the Padres have been playing much better baseball lately, going 8-3 in their ;last 11 games. MLB Free Pick: Padres +160

Free MLB Picks: New York Yankees (-165)

The Yankees bats exploded this past weekend, scoring 23 runs in a three-game sweep of the Houston Astros. With momentum behind them I expect they will continue their current run against San Diego Padres, in the Bronx Zoo, tonight. Look for an expect veteran hurler Andy Pettitte (6-5,4.64 ERA) to out pitch the Padres starting thrower Randy Wolfe (5-4, 3.83 ERA). Final notes & Key Trends: Wolfe has pitched better at home than he has on the road this season, as is evident by his team losing all 5 of his road starts. Play on the Yankees
