Jack’s Free Sports Picks: 8/19

Written August 19, 2009 by Jack Jones

cubs-padres-predictions-081909 Three premium MLB plays for Wednesday night. One is a 20* No Doubt Rout, plus I’ve added a pair of 15* selections. Tough break on the Rays last night as they win the game outright, but fail to cover the run line for us. We’re still having a great baseball season, sitting at 178-160 on the year for +1,468 units! Grab my package now at the Jack Jones home page or take a look at some of the baseball picks being released by our other top handicappers.

**EARLY BIRD** Football subscriptions are now available! Pick one up today and save $100 on any football season package!

As of 7/31: I want to note that this is the time of the year when teams start calling up a lot of their young pitchers and position players. As a result, I am much more selective with my picks and will likely have fewer bets from here on out.

Free Pick for Wednesday

So I know I’ve had this disclaimer about the free picks being the weakest plays and that I don’t play them, but I really put 1% of my bankroll on these games in comparison to 3-4% on the regular and BEST BETS. I just don’t want people getting ridiculous on the free picks when they aren’t intended to be the highest percentage of winners that I offer.

You can find more great winners every day by visiting our sports betting forum.

15* on San Diego Padres +1.5 (+105) at Sportsbook.com

Take the Padres on the run line as the Cubs have not played well on the road this season. Chicago is just 25-35 in road games, and while the Padres aren’t fantastic at home, they do have a winning record a 32-30. They also have a sharp young pitcher in Mat Latos, who is 2-1 with a 2.65 ERA and 1.12 WHIP in 3 home starts this season. Cubs starter Rich Harden has thrown well lately, but the Cubs are only 4-5 in his 9 road starts on the year.

CBB: 51-36
NBA: 26-38
NHL: 4-0 (+665)
CFB: 3-1
NFL: 4-1
MLB: 41-46-1 (-1078)

I also post my free picks on Twitter so if you follow me there it may be easier to get the picks if you are away from your computer and stop by every day for more free baseball picks from top handicappers.
