The one where I don't write much and just post picks!

Hey everyone! Today is a fun MLB slate but a lot of games are going off EARLY so I wanted to get some picks out there now as I also have a pretty busy schedule the rest of the day, so I have to kind of just “dump” my picks in here without much explanation of justification - not something I love to do - as you know by now.

Quick and Dirty, here we go…


Pitcher Props

Going OVER with these aces who I think are in good spots. A few guys didn’t quite make the cut (Cole, Snell, Gavin Williams) but with this many games we don’t have to bet on every good pitcher (or against every bad one)

Speaking of bad pitchers - a few props I forgot to screenshot.

Luke Weaver OVER 5.5 HITS (-130)

Taj Bradley OVER 2.5 earned runs (-130)

Bradley is not a bad pitcher but is slumping badly and facing the best offense in baseball right now in Atlanta.

The guy who I want to bet, but who isn’t posted is Reid Detmers (because the Dodgers haven’t announced a starter). I am hoping to get him over 6.5K at plus odds. 5.5K would be an easy over, but probably juiced.
