Picks of the Day, 5/20

Not an awful day yesterday. 2-1 with the White Sox moneyline, and CLEV/NYM over hit easily. I also took the over in the Cards/Dodgers game, mostly because the Cardinals had scored 8.7 runs per game over their last 7 games…of course they were shut out and the over was a bust. I can’t get too […]

Diamondbacks Continue Chasing Dodgers

They may not be where they were to start the season when they led the loaded National League West, but the Diamondbacks are still hanging tough in the division. Arizona is currently second, and just three games back of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Then on the flip side of things, the San Francisco Giants are […]

1-4 Michael Kopech faces 1-4 Zack Greinke and the Royals this evening to kick off a must-win series for the White Sox

Picks of the Day, 5/19

Enjoyed a day off yesterday after getting bludgeoned on Wednesday. Picking games on a day with only 6 games is hard enough without going 0-3 the day before. I hate forcing a bet I don’t love, so I took the day to reset and get back on track before the weekend.To quickly recap the bloodbath […]

St. Louis Cardinals Rumors: Starter Emerging as Possible Trade Candidate

Heading into the 2023 season, the St. Louis Cardinals had high hopes. However, even after winning eight out of their last 10 games, they remain at the bottom of the NL Central with an 18-26 record. Their horrid start to the year has made their chances of making the playoffs rather slim, and they are […]

I am failing at trying to grow a Strider mustache. Also, he faces a Rangers lineup today that strikes out a lot

Picks of the Day, 5/17

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 […]

Picks of the Day, 5/16

Is there anything more frustrating than taking the Under on a 10 run line, having a score of 2-0 through 5, then having a bullpen injury and implosion followed by a position player pitching, and missing the Under by one run?? Well, that’s what happened in Boston last night. A pitchers duel (that I correctly […]

Picks of the Day, 5/15

A drunken start to the MLB season is starting to sober up. The Pirates are out of first and 2-8 in the last 10. The Yankees are starting to play better. The Rays are coming back to the pack a bit. The Phillies finally got to .500, and the Cardinals have now won 2 straight […]

Picks of the Day 5/13

2-1 yesterday. Strider annihilated the 8.5 strikeout line. He is so fun to watch, and the scary part is, he’s still developing. Kopech also got over his 4.5 Ks. The miss was MacKenzie Gore over 17.5 outs. Gore pitched a good game, 4 innings, 5 hits, 1 walk, no runs, but somehow ran his pitch […]

Picks of the Day, 5/12

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, […]

Pete Alonso leads the majors in home runs (13) and squares off against the Reds bullpen today

Picks of the Day, 5/11

Another 2-1 day. I guess I can’t complain. Steele at +200 to win was great. Tigers Moneyline +100 hit early and was never in doubt. And, the one that didn’t hit was Dean Kremer over strikeouts that missed by one, despite Kremer throwing a gem.For the second day in a row, my player to hit […]
