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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

How can you not be romantic about baseball? Yesterday featured Liam Hendricks returning from Stage 4 cancer to pitch again, Mike Soroka starting for the Braves after 3 years of rehab, and 31 year old Mike Mayers taking a perfect game into the 8th inning against the team that drafted, then gave up on him.The […]
