Picks of the Day, 5/10

Another 2-1 Tuesday. The Padres took care of business and covered the run line, and the Cards and Cubs went over the total runs. I have under 10 in Atlanta because I thought the line was absurdly high, but Nick Pivetta allowed 4 runs in the first and the two teams went over 10 in […]

Picks of the Day, 5/5

I went 2-1 yesterday. I should have easily been 3-0. I had E-Rod over 4.5 strikeouts and that hit in 2.1 innings. I also has Orioles and Brewers -1.5 over two terrible teams. The Orioles got out to a 6-0 lead and I was ready to declare a win, when the Royals stormed back. At […]

Picks of the Day, 5/4

I am having a rough week. Another 1-2 day yesterday, so I’m looking for three easy wins today. I was totally unaware that the Mets are so bad, I just figured injuries are taking their toll, but man does that lineup stink. I also had the over in the Yankees game because: Clarke Schmidt…but the […]

Picks of the Day 5/3

Yesterday was a bloodbath. Twins -1.5 was a loser because Michael Friggin Kopech carried a one hitter into the 7th. Zac Gallen (Over 18.5 outs) was knocked out in the 6th by the Rangers. And, my reach pick, Shohei to hit a home run, didn’t even play. Thank goodness for Tanner Houck being forced to […]

Snell has been less than sharp this year. Hopefully he doesn't figure it out today.

Picks of the Day, 5/1

Not a bad Sunday. 2-1 on the picks. Sonny Gray getting the win was easy money. Royals and Twins Over hit late. And, of course, I had Alex Cobb allowing the first earned run, and Yu Darvish promptly allowed a homerun on the second pitch of the game. Not too many games today to choose […]

Marcus Stroman faces the Marlins in Miami today. I expect a strong performance.

Picks of the Day, 4/28

Even when I lose, I win. For only the second time this season, all three of my picks lost yesterday, and lost big. But, because I picked Brett Baty to hit his first home run at +650, I still ended up 3.5 units up for the day. 42-37 on the season. Be aware of lots […]

Picks of the Day, 4/19

1-2 yesterday, 26-27 on the season. It appears my hot streak is over. Had the twin -.5 through 5 innings and of course Chris Sale had his best start since 2019. And, missed the over in NY by a run because the Yankees bats couldn’t get to Angels legend, Jose Saurez. Happy Hump Day:Pick #1 […]
