James Wood’s Hot Double-AA Start
With most of the top-rated prospects in the Minor Leagues, Nationals fans are optimistic about prospects like Robert Hassell, James Wood, Elijah Green, Trey Lipscomb, Brady House, Jarlin Susana, and Jackson Rutledge. Out of the players, a 6’6 outfielder has been (quite literally) standing out. On May 28th, #1 overall organizational prospect James Wood received word […]

Crap day yesterday. I can’t believe how putrid the Yankees are that they can’t beat Lance Lynn. Same with the Phillies. What the hell happened to Kyle Schwarber, and how does a lineup with 5 superstars at the top get shut down by the Tigers with rookies pitching? Gross. At least I can count on […]

My wife is having labor induced tomorrow morning. If you want my picks for the next two days, please follow @ITDiamonds_Jim on Twitter, and I will put the picks up there without much detail. Alex Cora owes me money. The Red Sox last night, coming off a 4-5 road trip, and an off day, should […]

Turns out, I’m not completely incompetent. A second straight winning day yesterday!! Mets and Cubs over hit in the 7th inning thanks to the Mets finally scoring some runs and Kyle Hendricks predictably being shaky in his first outing. The Orioles moneyline hit with a 3-1 Baltimore win. And, the one I missed on, was […]

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 […]

MLB is drunk this year. The White Sox, Mets, Cardinals, Yankees, and Phillies were all locks to be in the playoffs…and all suck. The Red Sox and Pirates are playing way over expectations. For that matter, so are the Rays. Even teams that looked bad on paper are playing with some pluck, like the Tigers, […]

Washington Nationals’ Early 2023 Trade Candidates
The Washington Nationals have had a surprisingly decent season to open 2023. The club is in the Top 5 in double plays and is sitting at a 14-20 record (As of 5/8). However, with a long way to go, the team is in rebuild mode. The Nationals have made plenty of blockbuster trades over the […]

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 […]

Another not so great day, but the picks were solid. I had Stroman to win, and he pitched 6.1 innings allowing 2 runs. That should be enough to win. I also had Nick Pivetta with over 5.5 strikeouts, and said that he could get clobbered and still have 6 Ks. He got clobbered and recorded […]
