Picks of the Day. 4/17

Every time I hear Chris Flexen's name, this is all I can think of....You're Fleeexen has a tough matchup vs Corbin Burnes today

Absolute blood bath yesterday. 0-3 for only the second time this season. Still, a very good week in which 5 reach picks hit for me, and money was made. 24-23 on the year now.
Enjoy the Marathon and some early baseball at Fenway:
Pick #1
Angels @ Red Sox Total runs Under 8, -110
Hate unders, but it’s Shohei vs Bello and two struggling offenses.
Pick #2
Jacob DeGrom Over 8.5 Ks vs Royals, -115
Royals are the worst team in baseball vs RHP. DeGrom guy is decent.
Pick #3
Brewers -1.5 Run Line @ Mariners, +120
Love the juice. Burnes had a bad first start but was unhittable in his second. Chris Flexen is probably working his way back in to the bullpen soon.
Reach
Not the best line, but Kyle Schwarber to hit a home run (+205) vs White Sox and Lance Lynn. Lynn has given up 6 HR in 3 starts. Schwarber has been known to hit home runs on occasion.
