Game Picks - Saturday: July 24, 2010

This picker had another good day and is starting to feel his oats. That's not a good thing. Getting humbled always seems to follow feelings of empowerment. Cripes, that sure is the mixed up psyche of a Sicilian Italian is it not? There was one game rained out so that probably made the final tally look even better. In any case, the Fan has to stop babbling as there is a tee time calling his name.

Saturday:

• The Cards over the Cubs: Was going to pick Gorzelanny to beat Hawksworth. Then said, "Uhh..no."
• The Yankees over the Royals: Mitre versus Davies. The Yankees win something like 12-10.
• The Rockies over the Phillies: Ubaldo over Kendrick, who this Fan thought was sent to the minors. That didn't last long.
• The Dodgers over the Mets: Would go with the Mets on this one, but Pelfrey has been mysteriously bad lately.
• The Athletics over the White Sox: Would rather have Mazzaro than Freddie Garcia.
• The Astros over the Reds: Oswalt has to win 100 games before he leaves Houston.
• The Padres over the Pirates: Latos over Karstens...as long as he doesn't sneeze.
• The Twins over the Orioles: Home Run Baker versus Hard Luck Matusz.
• The Blue Jays over the Tigers: Still think Marcum will beat Porcello.
• The Brewers over the Nationals: Parra over Martin. The Nationals are brutal on the road.
• The Braves over the Marlins: Medlen versus Sanchez in one of those match ups where anything can happen.
• The Rangers over the Angels: The Rangers finish off the Angels despite Feldman pitching.
• The Giants over the Diamondbacks: Bumgarner has been great. Ian Kennedy has been occasionally great.
• The Red Sox over the Mariners: The Mariners won't hit Lester. Won't be close.

And the Game of the Day:

• The Bay Rays over the Indians: Mr. Price will be Right.
