Picks of the Day, 5/28
I don’t have baseball today because of Memorial Day, so I guess I’ll do quick Sunday picks. I kind of thought I’d be at the hospital welcoming a third daughter this weekend, but the wife is being stubborn and won’t fire the kid out yet.Saturday picks started well with the over hitting in Detroit, but […]

Picks of the Day, 5/27
i’m old enough to remember the last time I went 3-0 on my daily picks.It has been a slow couple of weeks here, but yesterday was the third straight winning day, and I won all 3 bets including a +380 for Juan Soto to hit a bomb, which he did in grand fashion in the […]

The Ohtani Conundrum
The Angels have a large decision to make not only for this season but for the future of the franchise. Shohei Ohtani will absolutely hit free agency this offseason barring a major miracle. The Angels, as of 5/26/2023 are sitting at 28-23. Although they are in the playoff picture, this is also a good point […]

Picks of the Day, 5/24
I’m starting to hate baseball and I’m grateful I no longer live near Boston or I’d be standing on the Tobin right now, staring down and longing for the sweet release of the Mystic below.1-2 yesterday. I took the Sox moneyline because Bello has been excellent, and the Boston lineup has been a top 4 […]

Just fade my picks until this slump is over. I have no friggin clue what baseball Gods I pissed off, but this is getting ridiculous.I picked Chris Bassitt and the Jays to end a 4 game losing streak against the Rays on a bullpen day. These are games that good teams have to win. I […]

Happy Monday. As a heads up, my wife should be going into labor any minute now, so when you don’t see a post for a few days, that is why. Follow @ITDiamonds_Jim on Twitter, and I’ll at least throw picks up there ..500 last week. MLB is still drunk, more teams over or under performing […]

Picks of the Day, 5/20
Not an awful day yesterday. 2-1 with the White Sox moneyline, and CLEV/NYM over hit easily. I also took the over in the Cards/Dodgers game, mostly because the Cardinals had scored 8.7 runs per game over their last 7 games…of course they were shut out and the over was a bust. I can’t get too […]

Picks of the Day, 5/19
Enjoyed a day off yesterday after getting bludgeoned on Wednesday. Picking games on a day with only 6 games is hard enough without going 0-3 the day before. I hate forcing a bet I don’t love, so I took the day to reset and get back on track before the weekend.To quickly recap the bloodbath […]

Picks of the Day, 5/17
Yesterday was one of those “I’m never betting again” days. I have no explanation for San Diego losing to Brady Singer and the 13-31 Royals, and Luis Castillo pitching like Nick Pivetta against Pivetta and the Red Sox. At least Houston and Chicago scored 10 and the over hit for me. Betting MLB has been […]
