Randy Arozarena made me money early yesterday. Can Castellanos help me today?

Picks of the Day, 4/14

Another 2-1 day overshadowed by the fact that I have been hitting my reach picks almost every day! An Arozarena home run of Chris Sale in the 1st inning yesterday, meant I didn’t care what happened the rest of the day. I also had Springs under 17.5 outs recorded, and he left early with an […]

Picks of the Day, 4/12

Hallelujah! Finally a 3-0 day, AND I hit the AL East Parlay at +404. The Wesneski kid in Chicago played ball, and got knocked out in the 2nd inning, Shohei and DeGrom dealt, and the Jays made me sweat a bit but in the end, destroyed the Tigers. If you bet $100 on each of […]

Braves, Padres series wrap-up

Well, it’s not great. The injuries are starting to catch up with this team. After winning game one, of the four game set, with a walk-off in the 9th, the Braves were outscored 19-7 in the last three games. Fortunately, thanks to a hot start, they still sit at 7-4. Spencer Strider wasn’t bad in […]

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 […]

Three Takeaways From the Pirates Sweep Over the Boston Red Sox

What a start to the Pittsburgh Pirates 2023 season as they complete the series sweep against the Boston Red Sox! After dropping two games in Cincinnati, the Bucs bounced right back, stealing all three games at Fenway after a high-scoring series against Boston and a beautiful outing from Pirates Mitch Keller. The black and gold […]

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 […]

Matt Strahm pitching means I'm betting on his opponent. Every single time. Yong Kim/Staff Photographer, The Inquirer

Picks of the Day, 4/4

A third consecutive 1-2 day. Houston and Cleveland losing to the two worst teams in baseball is tough. Good news is, my reach pick hit at +468 to save the day when Mike Yastrzemski homered. Sitting at 3-6 now, and taking a conservative approach today to get back on track. Pick#1Yankees -1.5 over Phillies, +130 […]
