MLB Picks April 2013: +$255.50

4/26
Brewers @ Dodgers
Josh Beckett, and the Dodgers as a whole, looked very mediocre when I saw them play Baltimore. Milwaukee is red hot as well.
Brewers +137 (1 unit) -$100
Angels @ Mariners
The Angels should be bigger favorites than this. Seattle is just not that good.
Angels -136 (1 unit) +$100
Braves @ Tigers
Paul Maholm has seemed very sharp. I'm smelling another Tigers bullpen implosion here.
Braves +128 (1 unit) -$100
4/24
Royals @ Tigers
Sorry I'm a little late. Wade Davis isn't that awful, the Royals shouldn't be getting this much juice.
Royals +165 (0.75 units) -$75
4/23
Blue Jays @ Orioles
Dickey is overhyped and is in a funk. Gonzo has been pitching quite well so far for the O's.
Orioles +103 (1 unit) +$103
Yankees @ Rays
I hate the Yankees as much as the next guy, but price is not such a shut down guy that he deserves this big a line.
Yankees +160 (1 unit) +$160
4/22
Braves @ Rockies
These are the kind of conditions the Rockies will thrive in and the Braves won't: a wind chill in the 20's and light snow.
Rockies +109 (1 unit) +-$0
Oakland @ Boston
A.J. Griffin is off to a very good start of the year and the A's are among the best in the AL.
Oakland +125 (1 unit) -$100
4/21
Cardinals @ Phillies
The Phillies remain overrated. Kyle Kendrick has looked quite shaky in his last few outings.
Cardinals +100 (1 unit) -$100
4/16
Angles @ Twins
Everyone is panicking on the Angels too early. They're still a quality team.
Angels -124 (1 unit) -$124
Giants @ Brewers
I'm picking the underrated Giants with Zito. The Brewers are just very average.
Giants +103 (1 unit) -$100
4/15
No plays I like tonight, so no picks!
4/14
Giants @ Cubs
I get it, Posey is out and Lincecum looks awful. But this is still an easy pick for me, the Cubs are bad.
Giants -105 (1 unit) +$100
Rays @ Red Sox
The Rays are still among the American League's best. Bucholz is not a true ace like most people seem to want to think.
Rays +125 (1 unit) -$100
4/13
Rangers @ Mariners
This feels like a classic trap game for the Rangers against a solid pitcher in the middle of a series.
Mariners +130 (1 unit) -$100
4/12
Orioles @ Yankees
I try to avoid being a homer and picking the O's, but they have a history of beating Sabathia and Miguel Gonzalez looked great in his first start.
Orioles +141 (1 unit) -$100
Blue Jays @ Royals
Everyone is pulling the panic lever on the Blue Jays. I'm not. I just sang the praises of the Royals the other day, but the Blue Jays are still a quality team.
Blue Jays +107 (1 unit) +$107
4/11
Giants @ Cubs
Scott Feldman is not nearly good enough to get this kind of a line against the defending World Series champs.
Giants -127 (1 unit) +$100
Rangers @ Mariners
King Felix is a great pitcher, don't get me wrong. But the Mariners should not be -150 against anyone.
Rangers +135 (1 unit) +$135
4/10
No plays today! Nothing on the schedule looks appealing to me.
4/9
Twins @ Royals
Jeremy Guthrie is really a quality starter. The Royals have been playing well, they could reach .500 this year.
Royals -147 (1 unit) +$100
Astros @ Mariners
Erik Bedard is another ex-Oriole I like tonight.
Astros +142 (1 unit) +$142
4/8
Rays @ Rangers
Whoa, whoa. Let's not push the panic button on the Rays. They shouldn't be getting this much money with Hellickson on the mound.
Rays +145 (1 unit) -$100
4/7
Red Sox @ Blue Jays
Jon Lester looked quite good in his first start. R.A. Dickey most definitely did not.
Boston +118 (0.75 units) +$88.50
Kansas City @ Philadelphia
Oh please, James Shields is quite good. This is an even pitching matchup between even teams.
Royals +120 (1 unit) +$120
Nationals @ Reds
Opposite pick of yesterday. Cueto is too good to be getting money.
Reds +101 (1 unit) +$101
4/6
Nationals @ Reds
Everyone is scared to death of picking the Nats after yesterday's clobbering. I'll use that to my advantage.
Nationals +100 (1 unit) +$100
Marlins @ Mets
Sticking with a good thing here. Nolasco looked very serviceable against Washington.
Marlins +150 (1 unit) -$100
4/5
Diamondbacks @ Brewers
Kyle Lohse was really quite a good pitcher in Saint Louis, the Brew Crew are the better team anyways.
Brewers -128 (1 unit) -$128
Marlins @ Mets
The Marlins have not looked completely awful so far. If the Mets can't put away the Padres at home, the Marlins will give them trouble.
Miami +145 (1 unit) +$145
Padres @ Rockies
How on earth are the Rockies so much better than the Padres? I get the game is at Coors, but still.
Padres +140 (1.5 units) -$150
4/4
Royals @ White Sox
Jeremy Guthrie is underrated, he will have a breakout year in KC. I've never even heard of Gavin Floyd before.
Royals +112 (1 unit) +$112
Padres @ Mets
The Padres have looked really quite bad so far this year. The Mets at least have shown flashes of OK-ness.
Mets -136 (1 unit) -$136
4/3
Cubs @ Pirates
Edwin Jackson has been horribly inconsistent with the Tigers and Nats. The Pirates are underrated, they're significantly better than the Cubs.
Pirates -130 (1 unit) +$100
Mariners @ A's
Joe Saunders definitely has the stuff necessary to plow through Oakland's line-up. Seattle is pretty underrated, and too many people are just afraid to pick them when King Felix isn't on the mound.
Mariners +131 (1 unit) -$100
4/2
Indians @ Blue Jays
The Blue Jays have too much hype around them, just like the Marlins last year. R.A. Dickey will regress from his fantastic season.
Indians +155 (1 unit) +$155
4/1
Giants @ Dodgers
I don't know why everyone is on the Dodgers bandwagon. The Giants are the defending champions, and they're just as good as LA.
Giants +142 (1 unit) -$100
Phillies @ Braves
The Phillies aren't on par with the Braves this year. Tim Hudson is one of the most underrated pitchers in baseball, Cole Hamels is overrated.
Braves -110 (1 unit) +$100
