Wednesday MLB Pick

Two southpaws will oppose each other tonight when Carlos Rodón takes the hill for the Yankees and Anthony Kay for the Chicago White Sox. Rodón is starting to heat up. He is 2-2 with a 3.19 ERA, a 1.19 WHIP, and it gets better. Over his last three turns, Rodón is 2-0 with a 2.50 ERA and a 1.00 WHIP. Kay is 6-1 but he has a 4.38 ERA, a 1.42 WHIP, and over his last three turns his ERA ballooned to 5.79. The Yankees have the White Sox number. They have won four straight against them and nine of the last ten.
TONIGHT’S PICK: NEW YORK YANKEES

Tuesday MLB Pick

Tonight the Atlanta Braves are hosting the San Francisco Giants at Truist Park. Atlanta is 22-11 at home but the number is a little fishy. Since there’s not a lot to pick from in the MLB tonight, the Braves are the side to consider.
TONIGHT’S PICK: ATLANTA BRAVES

Monday MLB Pick

The Tampa Bay Rays are already acclimated to the west coast after finishing a series with the LA Angels. The Rays are a big dog tonight when they face the LA Dodgers, and they will deliver. Nick Martinez is expected on the hill for Tampa Bay. He is 6-2 with a 2.43 ERA and a 1.16 WHIP. This dog bet is going to come through tonight.
TONIGHT’S PICK: TAMPA BAY RAYS

Sunday MLB Pick

In an early one today at PNC Park, the Pittsburgh Pirates will go for a series win against the Miami Marlins. Paul Skenes is on the hill for the Pirates and he will take care of business.
TODAY’S PICK: PITTSBURGH PIRATES

Friday MLB Pick

The Philadelphia Phillies will be in Milwaukee tonight to open a 3-game set with the Brewers. Philly is a huge dog in this one and rightfully so. Milwaukee is expected to have their ace flamethrower, Jacob Misiorowski, on the hill. To say Misiorowski has been dominant would be an understatement. The Miz is 7-2 with an ERA of only 1.50 and a 0.81 WHIP, but if any team can get to him it’s Philadelphia. The Phillies have been one of the hottest teams in baseball. They are 18-14 on the road and are catching a Brewers team that has lost its last two. Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber and Alec Bohm are hot. The Phillies got to Misiorowski the last time they faced him, dinging him for 6 hits, 3 runs,1 homer by Bryce Harper over 4-1/3 innings, and Philadelphia went on to win 10-8. You’ve got to take a shot.
TONIGHT’S PICK: PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES

Thursday MLB Pick

The Pittsburgh Pirates and the Los Angeles Dodgers will play the rubber game of their 3-game set tonight at PNC Park. The Dodgers should be up 2-0 in this series but like all managers these days Dave Roberts pulled his starter Shohei Ohtani in the 6th then the bullpen gave up 5 runs and the Pirates went on to win 9-8. Tonight if Roberts lets his expected starter, southpaw Justin Wrobleski, go deep into the game, LA should come away with a win. Wrobleski has been in the zone. He is 7-2 with a 2.62 ERA and a WHIP of only 1.00. Wrobleski was stellar in his last turn against the Arizona Diamondbacks allowing zero runs over 6 innings but once again Roberts yanked him, the bullpen blew it, and the Dodgers lost 3-2. The Bucs are expected to send Mitch Keller to the hill. The Dodgers’ potent offense should be able to get to him. Keller is 5-3 but has an elevated 4.81 ERA, a 1.23 WHIP, and was lit up in his last turn against the Atlanta Braves, allowing 6 runs on 7 hits over 4.2 frames and the Braves won 6-3. The Pirates are just 1-9 in their last 10 games against a left-handed starter and the Dodgers are not in the habit of losing two in a row.
TONIGHT’S PICK: LOS ANGELES DODGERS
