Jack’s Free Sports Picks: 8/20


Written August 20, 2009 by Jack Jones

diamondbacks-phillies-predictions-0820092-1 yesterday including a 20* winner on the Yankees! For Thursday I have one 15* play going in bases, plus a 20* No-Brainer going in tonight’s NFL preseason action! Now sitting at +1,568 units for the baseball season and looking to add to that total tonight! 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.

I’m going to take a little break from the comment for a free pick offer. Instead I’m going to release one of my premium picks as the free pick over the next couple of days. The comment offer will be back shortly! You are still more than welcome to comment on today’s pick, I appreciate the feedback.

Free Pick for Thursday

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 D-Backs/Phillies UNDER 9 (-115) at Sportsbook.com

Take the under in the D-Backs/Phillies game with both starters pitching well as of late.  Arizona starter Doug Davis has been great in his last 3 starts, going 2-0 with a 2.70 ERA and 1.15 WHIP.  The Phillies’ Joe Blanton has pitched just as well, earning a 2.61 ERA and 1.16 WHIP over his last three starts, despite walking away with the loss in 2 of those appearances.  The under is 8-15 when Davis starts this season and 6-13 when Blanton starts.  I like those odds with this total set a bit higher than it probably should be.

CBB: 51-36
NBA: 26-38
NHL: 4-0 (+665)
CFB: 3-1
NFL: 4-1
MLB: 41-47-1 (-1178)

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.

    I like this under, Davis has finally found it lately and he is pitching well, Blanton is a dueler too.
