Jack’s Free Sports Picks: 8/24


Written August 24, 2009 by Jack Jones

indians-royals-predictions-08240920* NFL Preseason No-Brainer tonight along with a 15* MLB side. 20* plays are 3-1 in the NFL preseason so far and I have another one going Monday night! EARLY BIRD Football subscriptions are now available! Pick one up today and save $100 on any football season package! 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. 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.

As of 7/31: I want to note that this is the time of the year when MLB 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.

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 Monday

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 Cleveland Indians -108 at Sportsbook.com

The Kansas City Royals continue to struggle, having lost 4 games in a row and 5 of their last 6 overall.  KC is now just 25-39 at home this season where they are scoring just 4.5 runs per game.  This is a lineup that also struggles against left-handed starters, going 15-31 this year when facing a lefty starter.  By comparison, the Cleveland Indians score about 5.6 runs per game on the road, and while their pitch has struggled, their offense makes them a very good candidate to beat the Royals tonight.  To top it off, Royals’ starter, Gil Meche has been a mess this season, going just 1-5 in 9 home starts with a 5.73 ERA and 1.60 WHIP.  He’s also carrying a 9.22 ERA and 2.27 WHIP over his last 3 appearances.  The Indians’ bats should get the job done on Monday.

CBB: 51-36
NBA: 26-38
NHL: 4-0 (+665)
CFB: 3-1
NFL: 4-1
MLB: 42-50-1 (-1328)

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.
