Game Picks - Sunday: September 6, 2009

If all the games had been played during the day, this picker would have been fine. 5-1 during the day games, the final tally limped in at 8-7. Blah.

But Sunday is another day and the sun is shining so with a sunny attitude, here are today's picks:

• The Twins over the Indians: Holy cow, a Twins pick went right yesterday!
• The Yankees over the Blue Jays: The Yankees win despite Mitre.
• The Cubs over the Mets: The Cubs nearly always win when Wells is pitching.
• The Cardinals over the Pirates: Pineiro should beat Maholm.
• The Marlins over the Nats: Tough game because Sanchez does build much for confidence.
• The Reds over the Braves: The Reds have won a bunch in a row and Cueto looked great last time.
• The Rangers over the Orioles: The Rangers win despite a Holland start.
• The Tigers over the Bay Rays: Jackson should win this game despite a start by the next big thing for the Bay Rays: Wade Davis.
• The Phillies over the Astros: Hamels rights the ship.
• The Brewers over the Giants: Patient teams like the Brewers will allow Sanchez to walk people.
• The Red Sox over the White Sox: Lester rights this ship.
• The Royals over the Angels: Because this picker never picks Saunders.
• The Rockies over the Diamondbacks: De La Rosa gets strikes for every syllable.
• The Mariners over the A's: Fister wins again.
• The Dodgers over the Padres: At what point do we start worrying about the Dodgers' offense?
