Picks of the Day, 6/22

Not a bad day yesterday. Invested $300, won two of three bets and the payout was $400. I lost the “Ohtani to win” bet even though he threw a 7-inning gem, because the Angels lineup couldn’t score one damn run off a Dodgers bullpen day. I placed the bet because I saw Michael Grove as […]

Lots of good pitchers going today including Shohei Ohtani and Zac Gallen

Picks of the Day, 6/21

I had a longer piece written but stupid WordPress didn’t save my draft.I was 2-1 on Monday, had to take yesterday off, and I’m 101-87 on the season.Games start at noon today:Pick #1Shohei Ohtani to record a win, +105This has less to do with Ohtani dominating the Dodgers, and more to do with Michael Grove […]

Bryce Elder has come up big for the Braves in the absence of Max Fried and Kyle Wright. He enters tonight at 4-1 with a 2.69 ERA Jim Rassol, USA Today Sports

Picks of the Day, 6/17

Tough beat yesterday. The 10-run Under was a bust in the 4th inning of the Yanks and Sox game when the Red Sox opened up a 10-1 early lead. I also had Houck Over 5.5 strikeouts and he took a liner off the face and left the game. Oof.Rays took care of business, and I […]

Its hard to believe the Yankees, and Red Sox haven't met, halfway through June. Houck and German start off the series at Fenway tonight

Picks of the Day, 6/16

Yesterday I went 1-1-1. I got the push on the White Sox-Dodgers O/U 9 runs. If I had waited an hour, the line dropped to 8.5. Bummer. Mackenzie Gore shoved against the Astros yesterday too. I didn’t think he was up to the challenge, but I was wrong. At least Nate Eovaldi got his 7 […]

The Diamondbacks have been a hot team this season and are battling for not just the top spot in the National League West but the National League as a whole. Arizona is seeing much more success than they have in a long time. Before Tuesday night’s loss at home to the Philadelphia Phillies, Arizona had […]

Padres Right-Handed Pitcher Yu Darvish Mid-Wind up Set to Deliver Next Pitch

Which Yu shows up tonight? The one that went 7 innings and 2 hits vs the Cubs, or the one that went 2.2 innings and 7 runs against the Yankees?

Picks of the Day, 6/9

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 […]

Dbacks, Dodgers Tied for First in NL West

The Arizona Diamondbacks have been on a heater lately, winning six of their last eight games, including a six-game winning streak that ended Saturday against the Atlanta Braves. Arizona once again fell to the Braves on Sunday by a score of 8-5. Despite the loss, Arizona received help from the New York Yankees Sunday afternoon. […]

Padres Right-Handed Pitcher Joe Musgrove Excited After Getting Strike-Out

Taking a little risk today and betting on Musgrove to do something he hasn't done yet this year.

Picks of the Day 6/6

Great way to come back from paternity and start a new week. 3-0 yesterday and none of them even threatened to lose. The Rays took care of a quickly regressing Red Sox team 4-1, and the Padres and Snell shut-out the Cubs 5-0…both unders hit. And the third pick was Philly -1.5 and they won […]

Cy Young candidate, Shane McClanahan takes on a weak Red Sox lineup on a cold, rainy day in Boston

Picks of the Day, 6/5

I am happy to announce that baby Tenley was born on 6/1 and Momma and Baby are home and well. I hit the Over on birth-weight too, as she came in at 8lbs and 7oz. I didn’t think I’d need 5 days of Paternity leave from gambling, but I haven’t had 3 minutes to myself […]
