Today's Free Pick - Simon

BOOM!  Another victory pushes my record to 6-1 in my last 7 pick and 10-4 overall. I missed several picks after my internet wasn't working for a week, but ready to get back into it and started with a win last night.  Let's keep it up team!  Today we're going to go with Kansas City Royals vs Minnesota Twins over 7.5 runs @ +100 (2.00).

The Twins are continuing their race for the pennant, and feel the need to regularly beat up on Kansas City every time they face them. Zach Greinke is on the mound for KC and after his CY Young award last year, has struggled with a mediocre 8-11 record and a 3.87 ERA.  However amazing or poor Zach has done, Minnesota has hit him up as if a 12 year old was lobbing balls to Barry Bonds.  Joe Mauer and Jim Thome intend to continue their historic assault on Kansas City.  Mauer is a mind boggling 31 for 56 (.554 average!!) Good lord... and is an amazing 4-for-8 against Greinke this year.  Minny hasn't seen much of Brian Duensing, but the few that have, hold records of .333 or so.  Also, Duensing holds a record of 3-0 against the KC but has a large 4.26 ERA and like I said before, Greinke get's beat up against the Twins and holds a 3-7 record with a 4.94 ERA.  I see batters going up to bat twice in the same inning tonight, and look for the total score to be over 7.5 runs.
