Free MLB Picks - 5/17/2008

Interleague action is in full effect and there are some pretty sweet rivalry games going today.  Here are Saturday’s top picks in bases:

Tampa Bay Rays @ St. Louis Cardinals
Both teams are flying a little bit under the radar this season, but both are playing some really good baseball.  STL gets the edge in the pitching match-up (just barely), but it’s enough to give them the nod.
Pick:  St. Louis Cardinals -125

New York Mets @ New York Yankees
This is a makeup game from last night’s rain-out.  I’m still perplexed at how Johan Santana can be facing a bad Yankees team and he’s only favored by -130 on the money line.  The Mets have had their struggles as well, but I’d bet just about any game where Santana is less than a -160 favorite.
Pick:  New York Mets -130

Cleveland Indians @ Cincinnati Reds
The Indians are really hitting their stride.  Their winning ways should continue with Carmona on the mound Saturday.
Pick:  Cleveland Indians +105

Houston Astros @ Texas Rangers
The Rangers are awful.  Just awful.  Astros’ hurler, Roy Oswalt is too good of a talent to continue his struggles much longer.  This could be the turning point for his season.
Pick:  Houston Astros -110
