[If anyone wants to join us in their picks, just let me know via email or comment below and I’ll start sending you the morning lines. All you have to do is wager “BSB dollars” on any MLB games you want. The dollars can be divied up any way you wish, up to $100 each day. We’ll track the progress periodically on the blog. There is no obligation at all. Do it every day, once a week, once a month, or whatever.]

PICKS – APRIL 9:
The 9th should be interesting with a full slate of games all weekend. Bry is going for a big splash, as he (unknowingly) went with eight underdog picks. Doogan has a couple of safer bets with some favorites, as he continues to try and show up Vegas. Both guys picked Fla, Sea, and Tor. They are going head-to-head on the SF-Atl game, as Doogan has Tim Hudson and the Braves, while Bry took Jonathan Sanchez and the Giants.
Doogan:
- $20 Det (-160) vs. Cle
- $15 Atl (-125) @ SF
- $15 StL (-110) @ Mil
- $15 Fla (even) vs. LAD
- $15 Sea (+130) @ Tex
- $10 Phi (-160) @ Hou
- $10 Tor (+115) @ Bal
Bry:
- $20 Fla (even) vs. LAD
- $15 Tor (+115) @ Bal
- $15 SF (+105) vs. Atl
- $15 TB (-105) vs. NYY
- $15 Sea (+130) @ Tex
- $10 ChC (+115) @ Cin
- $5 Oak (+120) @ LAA
- $5 KC (+140) @ Bos
What can I buy with BSB dollars? Is that like smart money?
Easy money on the Yankees in that series. Jon Lester and John Lackey are both great pitchers, but when you have solid Yankee starters like Burnett or Pettitte going, with that offense supporting them, and the best closer of all time finishing it off, and they’re UNDERDOGS, that seems like kind of a no-brainer.
