we need to get back on track here.
i'll give you the pick in tonights nhl game, the baseball picks are for tommorow tuesday

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

pittsburgh penguins vs carolina hurricanes

gonchar will be key in the penguins chanced of making it to the stanley cup.
he won't play today, and if he does, it will be like he's not playing.
if the canes are gonna steal one at the igloo, this is the one.
it pays well.

bet on the carolina hurricanes


*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

cincinnati reds vs philadelphia phillies
cueto - hamels

despite both line-ups being potent, these two starters are of the absolute elite.

bet on the under

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

atlanta braves vs colorado rockies

jurjjens - hammel

jurrjens just keeps pitching gems.
atlanta is a pitcher friendly park and the rockies have a weak line-up.

bet on the atlanta braves

so we got the under on the reds-phillies game.
jurjjens pitched a 7 inning, 3 hitter, 8 k game, as atlanta won.
had i posted the picks like i normally do, i would have never given that game based on the very low price....anyhow, we're back on track on with a very exciting day coming up............

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

st.louis cardinals vs chicago cubs
carpenter - dempster

this highly anticipated return of carpenter is what makes today so exciting.
i really want to see this man finish this season healthy.
i'm not a fan of the cardinals, but this starter would put st.louis into contention this season.
dempster has been quite iffy so far....i do expect him to sort it out.
i don't believe the cardinals will need many runs to win this game, so..............

bet on the st.louis cardinals
bet on the under

A perfect day, as the Cardinals won by the score of 2-1 , scoring us the under as well.
Chris Carpenter maintains a 0.00 ERA this season, over 15 innings.

the Blue jays made a little mistake letting this guy go.

His stats in St.louis are phenomenal.
Carpenter's delivery has evolved to a very very high level.
The way I see it... he won a world series in 2006, and took 2 years off.
He's back to win another.
He's the best starter i've ever watched.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

San Fransisco Giants vs San Diego Padres
Lincecum - Correia

Since we're talking about the very best starting pitcher in the major leagues,
2nd best would be Tim Lincecum, who's limits are the sky.
This 24 year old has surpassed almost everyone.
He's got very tricky pitches with very interesting movements.
He's going to dominate almost every line-up he faces.

Bet on the San Fransisco Giants

Tim Lincecum pitched a gem, allowing only 4 hits in 7 innings.
Tim got 10 strike-outs, but the Giants bullpen messed it up in the bottom of the ninth.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

LA Dodgers vs LA Angels
Kershaw - Weaver

After taking a closer look these past 2 days at the 2 best starting pitchers in baseball, its time to loook at number 3.
Johan Santana is normally the 3rd best, but the truth is, Jered Weaver, at this particular juncture, is throwing the ball at a higher level.
i mentioned in his last start how he's getting the ball down.
i must add, the amount of movement he put on the ball at very high speeds in his last start.
Jered is at a peak in his career.
he is almost impossible to hit against.

bet on the LA Angels
