Game Picks - Tuesday: June 22, 2010

This picker had twice as many correct picks yesterday compared to incorrect ones. Too bad there were only three games to pick from. And of course, thanks to A. J. Freakin' Burnett, the one incorrect pick was the Game of the Day pick. Grrr. At least the Reds and the Nationals got off their long slides, so predicting that accurately was nice.

Tuesday features another full day of interleague picks:

• The Orioles over the Marlins: Just a hunch on this one. Guthrie has been pitching really well with nothing to show for it. Sanchez isn't the best of the Marlins' pitchers.
• The Royals over the Nationals: Leruw was good his first time out though the Royals lost the game. Atilano hasn't been that good.
• The Blue Jays over the Cardinals: Have to go with Cecil on this one over Garcia.
• The Padres over the Bay Rays: Wade Davis has pitched poorly and Latos has been the Padres' best pitcher.
• The Tigers over the Mets: Think Verlander will blow the Mets away.
• The Giants over the Astros: Lincecum should out duel Oswalt. Low scoring game.
• The Rangers over the Pirates: Got to go with Hunter over Ohlendorf.
• The Braves over the White Sox: Danks has been good but Hanson should prevail.
• The Twins over the Brewers: Baker has been consistent. Narveson hasn't been.
• The Rockies over the Red Sox: The Red Sox lose the DH. Chacin throws well.
• The Yankees over the Diamondbacks: Pettitte out pitches Haran.
• The Dodgers over the Angels: Manny can DH. Kershaw shuts the Angels down.
• The Athletics over the Reds: Braden hasn't gotten a win in a while. Tonight's the night.
• The Cubs over the Mariners: Dempster should be better than Vargas.

And the Game of the Day:

• The Phillies over the Indians: The Phillies will pound Talbot. But Moyer is pitching. hmmm....
