MLB Picks August 1st

As I said yesterday, I am going to put my picks down in the blog even though the main previews will still be written on the goonersguide site.

With the MLB picks, I am not going to make long reasons behind the picks that I have not put on that site, simply because of time constraints, but you can take it from me that I have studied the picks before putting them on here:

Double: New York Yankees and Atlanta Braves
CC Sabathia has been brilliant when pitching in August, and has been superb in recent starts for the Yankees. Derek Jeter is unlikely to play tonight, but the Yankees are 17-5 without him this season.

Jake Peavy has not found the command at the mound and the White Sox have struggled for runs recently.


Atlanta send Jair Jurrjens to the mound and he has been effective all season. The Braves have also in pole position for a Wild Card spot in the National League and could take advantage of Livan Hernandez who takes the ball for Washington and has struggled in August throughout his career.
