Saturday Free Pick - MLB 8/6/11

We like the Bosox, at home, in this great rivalry match-up against the Yankees.  Some of the key factors for why we like the Sox:

• In a big rivalry, emotions can play a large role and make anything happy.
• The Red Sox at big odds, and
• at home, is typically a good value.

Friday Free Pick - MLB 5/20/11

I am taking the Mets as a large dog -- the NY-NY rivalry is strong and anything can happen when the Mets and Yankees meet for a "Subway Series."  The line has been pushed up to almost -200 on the Yankees -- so I like the line value on Dickey -- who can be tricky (and is slightly undervalued currently).  - cb
