Shohei Ohtani
Must-Watch TV
I’m trying to think of all the must-watch players of my lifetime. I’m 45, and my very first baseball memories are of the early to mid-80s Red Sox. Of course, Roger Clemens was the must-watch guy then; 20 win seasons, Cy Youngs, an MVP season, the big, mean stare over the glove, the nickname “Rocket”, […]

Picks of the Day, 4/21
Not a bad Thursday with limited games. Went 2-1. Nestor recorded the win and Houck fanned over 5.5 hitters. The over on the Reds/pirates game looked great when Pittsburgh scored 4 in the 1st, but they ended up at 7 total and under 9. 31-28 on the season. Happy to have a full slate today:Pick […]

Angels Spring Training Review Through Two Games
We all know that Spring Training doesn’t really equate to season success directly, but for the eternal optimists, the Spring could not have started better for the Angels. The Angels have two games played in which they have hit, pitched, and won at the highest clip possible. In game one, the Angels played the Seattle […]
