Picks of the Day, 4/15
One week ago today I said I would be above .500 after a rough start to the season. Happy to say, after a 3-0 day yesterday, I am at 22-19. Anthony Rendon tried his hardest to get the over at Fenway, but even 4 unearned runs couldn’t blow the under for me. The Mets went […]

Another 2-1 day overshadowed by the fact that I have been hitting my reach picks almost every day! An Arozarena home run of Chris Sale in the 1st inning yesterday, meant I didn’t care what happened the rest of the day. I also had Springs under 17.5 outs recorded, and he left early with an […]

Hallelujah! Finally a 3-0 day, AND I hit the AL East Parlay at +404. The Wesneski kid in Chicago played ball, and got knocked out in the 2nd inning, Shohei and DeGrom dealt, and the Jays made me sweat a bit but in the end, destroyed the Tigers. If you bet $100 on each of […]

Picks of the Day, 4/11
Three straight days going 2-1, and I’m on the comeback trail. 13-16 on the season. I should have picked the Guardians moneyline instead of the run line, but I got greedy. I don’t count the reach picks toward my record. So far I’ve had pretty good luck with them, but yesterday all three aces in […]

I need a new name for these posts….Jim’s Pearls? Something with “diamond” in it? Diamond Jim’s Gems? Anyway, like Jesus, I rose from the dead yesterday. The Angels and Rays picked me up and The Braves Crucified me with their cold bats. 2-1 Yesterday, 9-14 on the season. Happy Masters Sunday to those who celebrate: […]

Anybody that tells you they are good at gambling is full of crap. Somehow, I managed to go 0-3 yesterday, and I’m now 7-13 on the season. Good news is, I’ve done pretty well this week with basketball, and hockey…which doesn’t help me here.If you bet on KC beating San Fran 3-1 at the Giants […]

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. Strider was ok, but Snell had a rough start, and they went over the 8.5 run line in the top of the eighth […]

1-1 Yesterday with a rainout. 5-9 on the season. Bryce Elder surprised everyone yesterday with a great performance against St. Louis. It sure feels like the Cardinals may have quit in skipper Oli Marmol. Lots of rainouts today. Here we go:Pick#1Padres @ Braves (7:10), Under 8.5runs, +100Snell vs Strider. Best game of the year so […]

Picks of the Day, Wednesday 4/5
The good news is, I’ve hit my reach pick the last two days, so financially I’m about breaking even. The bad news is, another 1-2 day, and a 4-8 record on my regular picks. I can’t believe the Oakland A’s are costing me money.Get your picks in early, games start at 12:35 today: Pick#1Cubs at […]

Picks of the Day, 4/4
A third consecutive 1-2 day. Houston and Cleveland losing to the two worst teams in baseball is tough. Good news is, my reach pick hit at +468 to save the day when Mike Yastrzemski homered. Sitting at 3-6 now, and taking a conservative approach today to get back on track. Pick#1Yankees -1.5 over Phillies, +130 […]
