I think your money would be better spent getting Stan Sharp but its your money. Burns and Vegas Runner usually pop up before the early games and I'll post them here as soon as I see them. Your call though

Actually, I looked it up, Ben Burns is 12-3 over the last 4 days. And, his picks haven't all been posted so, he would be a good get. By the way, of interests, Steve Merrill 8-3 last 4 days, Teddy Covers 6-3 last 4 days.

Ben Burns free play: Phillies

Last night, I had originally considered using the Phillies as one of today's guaranteed selections. However, the line move kept me from doing so. That said, I still feel that they'll have an advantage.

The Phillies came up just short in last night's 6-5 loss. The Mets had the better of the pitching match-up though, as they had Johan Santana on the mound. Tonight, it’s a different story, as the Phillies have their ace, Cole Hamels, taking to the mound. The southpaw, after a rocky start early this season, certainly seems to be back to his dominant form of last season. He and the Phillies are available at a fairly reasonable price (even after the line move) since they're on the road and Hamels gives them a big edge over Mike Pelfrey.

Pelfrey is coming off of a very rough outing at Pittsburgh and the other team from the other end of the state hasn't treated him very kindly either. Pelfrey does have a pair of wins against the Phillies this season but he walked five while striking out none in those two starts. Also, he gave up 15 hits in 12 1/3 innings. A problem for Pelfrey when facing the Phillies is that he struggles against left-handed hitters. The Phillies are very dangerous on that side of the plate as they have left-handed power threats like Raul Ibanez, Chase Utley and Ryan Howard plus they have speedy switch-hitters like Jimmy Rollins and Shane Victorino. Pelfrey may have won two match-ups with the Phillies this season but he certainly didn't dominate them. After hitting Santana quite well last night, the Phillies should pound him.

Conversely, the Mets aren't likely to fare too well vs. Hamels. Note that last time out, Hamels tossed a complete-game shutout vs. the Dodgers. The Phillies southpaw has a 1-3 career mark against New York but he really hasn’t pitched all that poorly (3.79 ERA) in those games. Also, Hamels hasn’t faced the Mets this season, which works in his favor. On the other hand, the Phillies will face Pelfrey for the third time since May 1st.

The Phillies have been the best road team in baseball this season as they have a 21-9 mark away from home. With their ace on the mound, they've got a solid shot at bouncing back with a victory. Consider Philadelphia

Hi LuckyMe,
I'm just going by who2beton.com where they post the records of some cappers. They have Steve 0-2 yesterday with losses on Orlando under and Seattle and then a third loss 4 days ago on Arizona. So they have it at 8-3. But, I think we are splitting hairs anyway, I'd take 8-2 or 8-3 anytime.
