Thursday Triple Threat

Three picks, three different sports, lines from Matchbook:

MLB

Padres +218, 1 unit to win 2.18 units


Don't tell my wife there might be hard-earned money on the line with Shawn Estes.


Tennis

A. Roddick +139 over N. Djokovic, 1 unit to win 1.39 units

If Djokovic is faking his injuries, as Roddick seems to believe, I'm in trouble here. But I watched both of their matches Tuesday and Andy looks much sharper and in much better shape.


College Football

South Carolina/Vanderbilt Under 41 -103, 1.03 units to win 1 unit

This one might be too obvious (see the Money Line Journal today), but the wagerline bets are about 60% on the Over (Overs on TV games are fun!), and I think the 68 points these teams put up last week are misleading. A lot of gamblers out there won't do much more research than looking at last week's scores. Defenses superior to the offenses on both these teams.

Good luck everybody. We're going to try and have some NFL and college football plays up during the day tomorrow.
