Free Mlb Picks - July 26, 2007

Yesterday we nailed our 5-unit Game of the Month pick (Baltimore won 6-1) to finish the day 2-1. Our MLB picks are hitting 64% (25-14) for +28 units over the last two weeks.

Today we have uncovered a perfect 20-0 system that applies to a noon game and we're releasing this game as a 5-unit selection!

We also have another sports blog about one of the most uplifting stories to this MLB season. Please see below for a preview. 

Today's MLB Baseball Picks:

Game: Pittsburgh at New York Mets (12:10 PM Eastern)
Pick: 5 units on New York Mets -1.5 +121 (risk 5 to win 6.1)

The Mets have awakened from mediocre play, and have now won 8-of-11, and are poised to sweep the Pirates. Oliver Perez has not allowed more than seven hits in any start since April, and his recent ERA is even better than his 3 ERA on the season, as he has pitched to an ERA close to two in his last three starts. The Pirates are just not a competitive team at all on the road against the good teams. They finished 4-22 on the road last season and lost 57 overall. They are poised to challenge those numbers again this year. The Pirates only chance on the road has been when Tom Gorzelanny toes the rubber. When Pittsburgh has played a .500 or better team on the road this season, they are 0-16 in their losses to the +1.5 runline, unless Gorzelanny was the starter. They have been out-scored 122-44! That is nearly five runs a game! The Pirates aren't playing well period, right now, as they have dropped 10 of 11. Talk about value? The Mets are an underdog to the -1.5 runline, against a team that has not covered this line in a loss against a .500+ team the entire season. The Pirates are just 5-16 in Maholm's road starts over the last two seasons, and the Pirates have registered just one win against a .500+ team in two years of his road starts. Mets get the sweep.

Pitching has dominated the last two games, and Carmona cooled a hot Sox offense. Boston had a decided pitching advantage in game one, and won easily. They have it again tonight. Kason Gabbard has allowed only three hits, in each of his last four starts, and right now the Indian lineup is not producing. The Sox staff has allowed just 17 runs in their last seven games, while the offense has produced 38. The Indians have managed only three runs this entire series, and are hitting just .157. Like the team mentality for the Sox right now, the pitching advantage, the bullpen advantage and the fact that the Sox have owned The Jake for a few years now. Sox take 3-of-4.

What else can be said? The Royals were beating up on everyone. They came into this series having taken series against three top teams, Seattle, LA Angels and Detroit. The Yankees right now are a team that is as hot as an offense gets. It's what happens when an All-Star lineup gets hot at the same time. It's a lineup right now that can out-hit their pitching. Kei Igawa has been bad, but so has DelaRosa. Igawa has actually out-pitched him recently, but one thing for sure, the Royals are not going to out-hit the Yankees right now. Going to ride this train ‘til it derails, which doesn't appear to be anytime soon. The Yankees were 21-29 on May 29, 14.5 games in back of the Red Sox, and left for dead. They are 33-17 since, and have made up eight games, Yankees sweep the four-game series.

Results: 1-2
