Free MLB Pick for Tuesday, June 3, 2008

Sports Betting at the Sportsbook

Our best bet in Major League Baseball today comes in the National League as the New York Mets visit the San Francisco Giants.  The Giants have not been playing good baseball this season.  Their pitching staff, other than Tim Lincecum has been awful, they can’t score any runs and they are just 2-7 in their last 9 home games.  Saying that the Mets have been that much better would be a hard case to make as they only have three more wins that the Giants, but the Mets at least seem to have some pieces of the puzzle in place.  Tonight marks the return of Pedro Martinez, and while he’ll never be the same Pedro you remember from just a few years ago, he’s still got quality control and knows how to change speeds as good as anyone.  Pedro’s counterpart for tonight’s game is the 1-8 Barry Zito, who has been a complete bust this season.  Zito is giving up far too many hits and walks (his WHIP is 1.77 on the year) to be successful in any capacity in the Major Leagues.  The Mets’ lineup doesn’t always produce the way it should on paper, but against a guy like Zito they should thrive.
