Crit’s Quick Thoughts from the Throne-MLB Afternoon Delight

The Red Sox are playing early today as part of a day/night double header. CC Sabathia starts a day time affair for the Yankees against CC’s hometown club (sort of as CC, much like rapper E-40, was born and raised 20 minutes North of Oakland in Vallejo) the Oakland Athletics. It would be a no brainer to select the Sawx and the Yankees on the money line and even a simple pick to take them - 1 1/2 runs for better pricing, however the real value on the board that Crit sees today is none other than 0-2 Barry Zito and the Giants taking on the San Diego Padres this afternoon in San Francisco with Chris Young on the hill for the Padres. Zito has been pitching pretty well, spotting all of his pitches, and despite his significant history of being absolutely brutal in April, your team here at P4P loves Zito and the Giants at home today on the money line at +109. Book it!!! As always, play wise, play smart, and play on player. Our recommendation: GIANTS + 109
As a bonus, in the nightcap tonight at Fenway, take Francisco Liriano and the Twins to snap the Red Sox winning streak and with great value: Bonus Selection: Twins (Liriano) +127
