MLB Picks: New York Yankees at Chicago White Sox

MLB Picks: New York Yankees at Chicago White Sox

Two plays in one here, as I like the Yankees in an ABC progression and the under in this game. I think the way New York is hitting, the under nine line looks good, expecting Kuroda to bounce back here. If not, we have Tanaka in a C bet if it gets that far, but statistically, even on the road, what are the odds the Yanks get swept here?

I think we have a nice statistical edge worth pursuing here. We start with a low confidence A bet, and chase through  ... 

MLB Picks: Arizona Diamondbacks at St. Louis Cardinals

MLB Picks: Arizona Diamondbacks at St. Louis Cardinals

This is a nice opportunity for a progression, though typically we like to save our aces for later in the series. We lead with Wainwright in the A bet and will chase with Wacha and Lynn if it comes to it.

The Dbacks are not very good on the road and the Cardinals are one of the most consistent teams in baseball. That’s good enough for me, despite limited line value and a tricky pitching matchup or two.

The computer disagrees and finds no value in this series. As such, we temper  ... 

MLB Picks: LA Dodgers at Arizona Diamondbacks, Progression

MLB Picks: LA Dodgers at Arizona Diamondbacks, Progression Opportunity

I don’t think any teams in baseball can beat the one-two punch of Zach Greinke and Clayton Kershaw. On the road, this line is dripping with value, and with a little computer support, I like a progression starting Friday in Arizona.

Greinke has been one of the most consistent pitchers this year, while the Dodgers have fended off sweeps with the best teams in baseball. The lineup can be a little streaky, so this ABC opportunity is certainly not without risk, but the opportunity to bankroll a quick and easy win  ...

MLB Picks and Predictions: San Francisco Giants at San Diego Padres

MLB Picks and Betting Tips: San Francisco Giants at San Diego Padres

A while ago, I started a system for avoiding the slop of the MLB. We called it “Two Bad Teams No Bet”… it’s a personal theory of mine that when two poor rosters get together the game reaches a level of volatility and unpredictability that makes betting it not worth while.

This series is a perfect example of why we stay away. The same is true of the Twins’ sweep of the Royals last week. Errors, bullpen collapses, silent lineups… they all happen in unexpected ways when you  ... 

MLB Picks Contest 2nd Round: Atlanta Braves Vs Philadelphia Phillies

NHL and MLB Picks Contest Round Two: Atlanta Braves at Philadelphia Phillies

So far this series is living up to the billing. Two hot teams provided for an exciting finish in Game One before Dan Uggla’s grand slam led the Braves to a comeback win – immediately after allowing five runs of their own in the bottom of the eighth. Let’s hope the excitement continues.

I like Atlanta this year and expect them to do big things in a mediocre division. It’s an interesting lineup with volatile, streaky hitters and right now they’re pounding the ball. I don’t know  ... 

NHL and MLB Picks Contest Round Two ($100 Prize): Atlanta Braves at Philadelphia Phillies

NHL and MLB Picks Contest ($100 Prize): Round Two – Braves at Phillies

Tuesday, 4/15

The contest is still in the early stages and only one round has passed. I was going to do a hockey round, but we’ll wait for the playoff situation to be settled. Instead, we do another baseball pick. Can the talent of the Atlanta Braves overcome Cliff Lee’s impressive repertoire? In this divisional rivalry, who will win on Tuesday?

As always, simply comment below on the post pinned to the top of our Facebook page to participate. Also, be on the look out for our NHL playoffs predictions. This has been a pure gold money maker for us in years past and we hope it will do the same this year. Cheers.

MLB Picks: Cleveland Indians at Chicago White Sox

MLB Picks: Cleveland Indians at Chicago White Sox

Tricky game, and I’ve got no progression here. This is a lesson in my approach more than anything. With Sale and Paulino next in line, there is no statistical edge to this game. You can try to flat bet this once and beat the house, but our strength in baseball is monitoring match ups over the long term. I don’t like this game.

That said, on a day with little else, it’s a decent play to take the Indians here. They’re on the road, but there’s value in the line. The computer gives  ...
