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 […]

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.

Wrapping Up Atlanta’s Series in St. Louis
Three games on the road versus a playoff team. A 5-1 start to the season is always a good thing. Not to take the shine off a great series, but it sure looked as if Cardinals players have quit on manager Oliver Marmol. Marmol publicly called out Tyler O’Neill’s hustle in game two and benched […]

Kyle Finnegan Must Be Replaced
Wednesday night got off to a rough start as Chad Kuhl served up three runs in the top of the first, and it seemed like another one of those days where the Nats would go down big early and be dominated throughout, just like Monday night. Surprisingly the bats woke up today and had the […]
