Picks of the Day, 6/17

Bryce Elder has come up big for the Braves in the absence of Max Fried and Kyle Wright. He enters tonight at 4-1 with a 2.69 ERA Jim Rassol, USA Today Sports

Tough beat yesterday. The 10-run Under was a bust in the 4th inning of the Yanks and Sox game when the Red Sox opened up a 10-1 early lead. I also had Houck Over 5.5 strikeouts and he took a liner off the face and left the game. Oof.
Rays took care of business, and I managed one win.
98-85 on the season:
Pick #1
Phillies @ A’s, Total Over 9 runs, -120
The starting pitchers have a combined ERA over 13.00….nuff said.
Pick #2
Rockies @ Braves, Bryce Elder to record Win, +105
I really like the Braves -1.5 Run Line, but it’s only at -150 so not worth it. Take Elder to go 5 innings and Braves to win.
Pick #3
White Sox @ Mariners, Total Over 7 Runs, -120
A 7 run line is really low for any game in 2023. Just take it almost any time you can get it.

Jim
