Saturday Baseball Pick I'm on a 277-218-5 run with my free releases, all sports combined, the past 16 months. Now on a 10-3 run with comp winners, tonight we roll with the Rockies getting it done at Shea Stadium tonight.
Last night I said you might think I was nuts with the NL-worst Pirates right here, but sure enough, I gave you a winner with Ian Snell getting it done. Tonight, it's Colorado in New York with Jeff Francis leading the way.
While the betting world will be thinking this line is a huge mistake and jumping on New York as a home dog, the oddsmakers will be smiling with the trap catching so many suckers.
Look, Francis has stabilized a 1.91 ERA over his last eight starts, sspanning the last two months, and surprise: his ERA is best in baseball over that period.
Toss in the fact that over his last six outings he's produced quality innings, and that he's given up two or fewer runs and thrown more than seven innings in each one of those starts.
Forget about Dave Williams - the play here is on Colorado and Francis. 3♦ ROCKIES Complimentary winners on a 1♦ to 5♦ Basis |
