Free MLB Pick: Giants vs. Astrois Under 7 (Tom Freese)
Two of the best pitchers in baseball hook up tonight when Roy Oswalt and Tim Lincecum face each other in Houston. The Astros are 10-1 UNDER their last 11 games vs. a starter with a WHIP of less than 1.15. Houston is 19-7 UNDER their last 26 games as underdogs. Oswalt is 14-3-1 UNDER in game one of a series. Houston is 48-23-3 UNDER their last 74 home games vs. a righty starter. San Francisco is 18-6-2 UNDER their last 26 games vs. NL Central teams. The Giants are 12-5-1 their last 18 games as road favorites. Tim Lincecum is 4-1 UNDER as a favorite of -110 to - 150. San Francisco is 15-7-2 UNDER their last 24 games as favorites of -110 to -150. Runs will be hard to come by in this pitching matchup. PLAY ON ‘UNDER’ (Lincecum vs. Oswalt)

Free MLB Pick: San Francisco Giants -130 (Jimmy Boyd)
I’ll back the two-time N.L. Cy Young Award winner tonight at a solid price for my free selection. The Astros are going to struggle to score runs this season, and that does not bode well for them tonight. Tim Lincecum is 2-0 with a 1.67 ERA and a WHIP of just 0.773 in his career against the ’stros. The Astros finished with 14 less wins than the Giants last season, and they will certainly have their work cut out for themselves against Lincecum, especially without All-Star slugger Lance Berkman in the lineup. The Astros are just 15-37 in their last 52 games as an underdog of +110 to +150. I’ll fade them in this price range tonight.
