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.

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 […]

Picks of the Day, 6/8
Apparently the air quality is affecting my betting sense. Or, perhaps it’s the lack of sleep and over abundance of explosives baby poops.Either way, I shouldn’t have picked the Pirates yesterday with Roansy Contreras on the mound.

Picks of the Day 6/7

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 […]

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 […]
