Mets deal Robertson to Miami for prospects

It shouldn’t have surprised anybody, but it was still a bit of a shock to see the highest-paid team in baseball history trade away their closer in July, especially to a division rival. Roberston, 38, was signed to a 1 year, $10 million contract this offseason to be the setup man for the reigning NL […]

Thursday: Angels handled business in a big way yesterday. Ohtani threw his first career CG shutout in Game 1, and the bats took care of business in Game 2, which is all I cared about.; I took the damn under in Chicago because I loved the Bibbee/Cease matchup, and I was right, but the aptly […]

Wednesday: Strider got me over 8.5 Strikeouts before the bullpen cost him the win. What the Red Sox are doing is amazing. They just are not as good as they are playing. I know that doesn’t make sense, but I just keep waiting for a slump that hasn’t come; The Padres stink, they lost again […]

Tuesday: Phillies moneyline hit with a comeback in the bottom of the 9th, thank you Alec Bohm; Over 9 runs in Chicago hit in the 7th inning, and the Cubs beat the White Sox on the South Side; And, Over 9 runs hit in LA where there were 7 runs scored going into the ninth […]

Monday: Orioles moneyline hit with a 3-2 O’s win over Philly; Pirates smacked around Yu Darvish and the Over hit easily; and, in Detroit I was hopping for a fun afternoon game to watch while I work, but it stunk and my Over 8.5 runs missed by 3 runs. I really didn’t like that pick […]

Picks of the Day, Saturday 7/22

I didn’t get to watch one pitch of baseball yesterday for the first time all year. Just found out this morning that Justin Steele got me the win, The Dodgers Moneyline hit easily, and unfortunately the Orioles and Rays couldn’t muster up any runs for me. 2-1 yesterday. $300 invested, $420 paid out133-117 on the […]

I want to puke. Down $600 in two day and 0 for my last 6 picks. This is a first. Perhaps I can get Cardinals fans to pay me to continue betting against the Cardinals.Marcus Stroman pitched like a guy that doesn’t want to be traded to Tampa Bay this month, Blake Snell’s run of […]

Picks of the Day, Thursday 7/20

What an absolute disaster of a day. 0-3 and really none of the three picks were close. The Red Sox, with their Ace on the mound barely put up a fight against weak A’s pitching. Bello, of course allowed 3 Home Runs, and 6 Earned Runs…the worst start of the season for the young hurler. […]

Brayan Bello has emerged as the Ace for the Red Sox. He faces the A's tonight in Oakland Brady Farkas- Sports Illustrated

Picks of the Day, Wednesday 7/19

What a wild day of baseball! 8 games and 11 teams scored 10+ runs. Something that has never happened before in MLB history. The wacky day did me no favors in Atlanta or St Louis. I bet the Braves Run line, and the final was 16-13 with 6 lead changes. That’s two straight outings now […]

Picks of the Day, 7/18

2-1 yesterday, but made decent money because, Shohei to hit a Home Run, hit at +235. Dodgers Orioles covered the high 9.5 Over at -105. And, the one loss, was The Red Sox and A’s who couldn’t get over the 8.5 line because the A’s lineup only mustered one damn hit off the Sox bullpen.Still; […]
