Picks of the Day, 5/28

I don’t have baseball today because of Memorial Day, so I guess I’ll do quick Sunday picks. I kind of thought I’d be at the hospital welcoming a third daughter this weekend, but the wife is being stubborn and won’t fire the kid out yet.Saturday picks started well with the over hitting in Detroit, but […]

Picks of the Day, 5/23

Just fade my picks until this slump is over. I have no friggin clue what baseball Gods I pissed off, but this is getting ridiculous.I picked Chris Bassitt and the Jays to end a 4 game losing streak against the Rays on a bullpen day. These are games that good teams have to win. I […]

I am failing at trying to grow a Strider mustache. Also, he faces a Rangers lineup today that strikes out a lot

Picks of the Day, 5/17

Yesterday was one of those “I’m never betting again” days. I have no explanation for San Diego losing to Brady Singer and the 13-31 Royals, and Luis Castillo pitching like Nick Pivetta against Pivetta and the Red Sox. At least Houston and Chicago scored 10 and the over hit for me. Betting MLB has been […]

Picks of the Day, 5/12

MLB is drunk this year. The White Sox, Mets, Cardinals, Yankees, and Phillies were all locks to be in the playoffs…and all suck. The Red Sox and Pirates are playing way over expectations. For that matter, so are the Rays. Even teams that looked bad on paper are playing with some pluck, like the Tigers, […]

Padres Left-Handed Pitch Blake Snell Mid-Wind Up Set to Deliver Next Pitch

Snell has been less than sharp this year. Hopefully he doesn't figure it out today.

Picks of the Day, 5/1

Not a bad Sunday. 2-1 on the picks. Sonny Gray getting the win was easy money. Royals and Twins Over hit late. And, of course, I had Alex Cobb allowing the first earned run, and Yu Darvish promptly allowed a homerun on the second pitch of the game. Not too many games today to choose […]

It's Spencer Strider Day, which means I'm betting the over on strikeouts Todd Kirkland/Getty

Picks of the Day, 4/29

Another not so great day, but the picks were solid. I had Stroman to win, and he pitched 6.1 innings allowing 2 runs. That should be enough to win. I also had Nick Pivetta with over 5.5 strikeouts, and said that he could get clobbered and still have 6 Ks. He got clobbered and recorded […]
