After checking for the necessary criteria and conditions, here are my picks for these series starting today August 10, 2007.

- Fla @ NY Mets: I'm picking Fla but I'm taking the +1.5 runs
- TB @ Texas: I'm picking Texas to win
- Atl @ Phi : I'm picking Atl but I'm taking the +1.5 runs
- Wash @ Ariz: I'm picking Wash but I'm taking the +1.5 runs
- Mil @ Houston: I'm picking Houston to win

Remember, my goal is to win only 1 game over the series to come out a winner. If I lose any of these tonight I’ll have a look tomorrow and decide what my strategy will be over the course of the rest of the series. Also, I never pick more than 1 game on any single play.
