Free Sports Picks September 2nd, 2007MLB New York (N) vs. Atlanta
Take New York (N) Mets
1 Unit on NY Mets +154 (Listing Glavine only) The Mets show value today as a decently big underdog on the road against Atlanta Sunday. Tom Glavine hasn’t lost in 10 straight starts, allowing 3 runs or less in 8 of the 10. This guy keeps winning ball games despite his age. You can bet Glavine will be putting on a display tonight against his former teammate John Smoltz. Atlanta is 3-8 in their last 11 games overall. The Mets are 45-21 in Glavine’s last 66 starts. Take New York.
MLB Detroit vs. Oakland
Take Detroit Tigers
1 Unit on Detroit -116 (Listing Robertson and Braden) We will take the Tigers today over Dallas Braden and the Oakland A’s. Braden is 1-7 on the season with a 6.32 ERA. Braden is winless in his last 3 starts with a very high 9.00 ERA. The Detroit Tigers will get to Braden early and hang on for the win. The Athletics are 1-5 in Braden’s last 6 home starts. The Tigers are 53-26 in their last 79 games as a road favorite. Take Detroit.
MLB Houston vs. Chicago (N)
Take Chicago (N) Cubs
1 Unit on Chicago Cubs -165 (Listing Hill and Williams) Houston is simply terrible on the road. The Astros are 19-41 in their last 60 road games. Woody Williams is washed up with a 5.04 ERA as a starter for Houston this year. Rich Hill is 2-0 in his last 3 starts with a 2.57 ERA. His 3.68 ERA on the season is the best on the Cubs’ starting staff and Hill will lead his team to another victory today. He has great stuff and should go deep into this ball game. Take the Cubs.
