E-Rod has had a solid start for the Tigers. He squares off today with Justin Verlander, who is making his Mets debut

Picks of the Day, 5/4

I am having a rough week. Another 1-2 day yesterday, so I’m looking for three easy wins today. I was totally unaware that the Mets are so bad, I just figured injuries are taking their toll, but man does that lineup stink. I also had the over in the Yankees game because: Clarke Schmidt…but the […]

Picks of the Day 5/3

Yesterday was a bloodbath. Twins -1.5 was a loser because Michael Friggin Kopech carried a one hitter into the 7th. Zac Gallen (Over 18.5 outs) was knocked out in the 6th by the Rangers. And, my reach pick, Shohei to hit a home run, didn’t even play. Thank goodness for Tanner Houck being forced to […]

Picks of the Day, 5/2

Not a bad Monday with limited options. Over in San Diego hit easily, and the Under in Washington came in with 2 runs to spare. Of course, the easiest bet of the day (Braves -1.5) did not hit. Strider was off his game and the bullpen blew a 6-1 lead, then AJ Minter allowed one […]

Padres Left-Handed Pitch Blake Snell Mid-Wind Up Set to Deliver Next Pitch
Snell has been less than sharp this year. Hopefully he doesn't figure it out today.

Picks of the Day, 5/1

Not a bad Sunday. 2-1 on the picks. Sonny Gray getting the win was easy money. Royals and Twins Over hit late. And, of course, I had Alex Cobb allowing the first earned run, and Yu Darvish promptly allowed a homerun on the second pitch of the game. Not too many games today to choose […]

Royals: 3 Potential Landing Spots for Aroldis Chapman

The Kansas City Royals have been off to a disastrous start, as they sport a 7-22 record. Due to their immense struggles, they are expected to be sellers at the 2023 MLB Trade Deadline. They have a valuable trading asset in Aroldis Chapman who will surely generate interest. Chapman has been a rare bright spot […]

Picks of the Day, 4/30

Betting on baseball when half the country is cold and wet is a pain in the ass. Strider was rained out in NY, Toronto won, and unfortunately the Pirates and Nats came up one run short for my over. 1-1 yesterday with a voided bet.This is the last Sunday I’ll do picks. I’ll be playing […]

Giants Promote Two Top Prospects

In the last few days, the Giants have made the decision to promote two of their top prospects – Patrick Bailey and Carson Whisenhunt. Bailey, 23, was taken by the Giants in the first round (13th overall) of the 2020 draft. Bailey debuted in 2021 with the Low-A San Jose Giants and performed well enough […]

It's Spencer Strider Day, which means I'm betting the over on strikeouts Todd Kirkland/Getty

Picks of the Day, 4/29

Another not so great day, but the picks were solid. I had Stroman to win, and he pitched 6.1 innings allowing 2 runs. That should be enough to win. I also had Nick Pivetta with over 5.5 strikeouts, and said that he could get clobbered and still have 6 Ks. He got clobbered and recorded […]

Marcus Stroman faces the Marlins in Miami today. I expect a strong performance.

Picks of the Day, 4/28

Even when I lose, I win. For only the second time this season, all three of my picks lost yesterday, and lost big. But, because I picked Brett Baty to hit his first home run at +650, I still ended up 3.5 units up for the day. 42-37 on the season. Be aware of lots […]
