Monday's Miscellaneous

The records have finally been updated, and it's official: we have really sucked at baseball the past couple of weeks after being consistently ahead before that. Lots of time to turn that around, of course. The rest for today:

MLB

Braves +114, 1 unit to win 1.14 units

Pretty close matchup, but we give the pitching edge to Jurrjens, assuming he doesn't hurt himself walking onto the field again.


Euro Cup

Germany -1 -145, 1.45 unit to win 1 unit

Most folks thought this game would be meaningless with the Germans having locked up the Group after their second game, but a bad performance against Croatia means this game is very important. Luckily, they get the worst team in the field today. If Germany gets up by one goal and then goes into defensive mode, we may end up with a push here, but we can't see Germany failing to win this one.


College World Series

Just posting the picks without explanation seemed to work yesterday, so let's try it again.

Florida State +160, 0.50 units to win 0.80 units

Georgia +136, 0.50 units to win 0.68 units


WNBA

Come on, you know you love these! I don't need to explain my thug.

Seattle -2.5, 1.1 units to win 1 unit

Gave a long-winded explanation on Saturday and missed by one point. So, let's just go back to saying that reasonably -priced home favorites seem to do well and leave it at that.
