Saturday Afternoon Picks

Headed out for family activities, so two for the afternoon quickly:

MLB

Brewers +167, 1 unit to win 1.67 units


Gallardo vs. Johan. Santana's not exactly known for coming into the early season ready to go, so April is always a good time to fade him when the number is good (and it almost always is). The Milwaukee lineup sets up very nicely versus lefties, with Fielder the only significant hitter who struggles against southpaws (and he's 3/6 vs. Santana - extremely small sample size, I know, I know). Gallardo's strikeout rate is actually projected (CHONE) to be higher than Santana this season.

NBA

Detroit Pistons +12 +103, 1 unit to win 1.03 units


We've had a lousy basketball season this year, so feel free to ignore, but fading Lebron just feels like the right thing to do.

Back later if we have time. Good luck everybody.
