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 […]

One Rookie of the Year Candidate from Every Team

The 2022 season saw some historic campaigns from its rookie class, including, but not limited to, Julio Rodriguez, Adley Rutschman, Michael Harris, and Spencer Strider. As we soon enter the second month of the 2023 season, we have already seen some of MLB’s most prized prospects make their way to the majors, as well as […]

Flame throwing Mason Miller makes his debut today for the A's. He may be the real deal, but after only 28 MiLB innings, is he ready to beat the Cubs today? Melissa Lockard- The Athletic

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 […]

I need Shane Bieber to be Shane Bieber today versus Patrick Corbin and the Nationals Ken Blaze- USA TODAY

Picks of the Day, 4/16

Another 2-1 day, and another reach pick hit with the Andrew Rizzo 3rd inning home run. Braves easily cover -1.5 after a rain delay. Pirates and Cards made me sweat the over, but it hit in extra innings. A’s and Mets did not hit the over, which is stunning. Sitting at 24-20 now and I […]

Can I jinx the 10-0 Rays? Ivy Ceballo/ TB Times

Picks of the Day, 4/11

Three straight days going 2-1, and I’m on the comeback trail. 13-16 on the season. I should have picked the Guardians moneyline instead of the run line, but I got greedy. I don’t count the reach picks toward my record. So far I’ve had pretty good luck with them, but yesterday all three aces in […]

Picks of the Day, 4/10

Thanks to an onslaught of late scoring and extras innings in Cleveland, I ended up 2-1 yesterday and improved to 11-15 on the season. Unfortunately for the Braves fan in me, Dylan Dodd looked awful iin Atlanta and my under pick missed by a mile. On the right track again, here we go Pick#1 Yankees […]

As a scorned Red Sox fan, I know that Eovaldi's first start was a fluke. Betting on a lot of runs today in Chicago.

Picks of the Day, 4/7

2-1 yesterday, for a nice change. Freddie Freeman covered his total bases early, and the 11 run line in Colorado came way, way, under. Unfortunately the pitchers duel in Atlanta didn’t materialize. Strider was ok, but Snell had a rough start, and they went over the 8.5 run line in the top of the eighth […]

Picks of the Day, Wednesday 4/5

The good news is, I’ve hit my reach pick the last two days, so financially I’m about breaking even. The bad news is, another 1-2 day, and a 4-8 record on my regular picks. I can’t believe the Oakland A’s are costing me money.Get your picks in early, games start at 12:35 today: Pick#1Cubs at […]
