The Beginning of Baseball Season

I know, I know, Opening Day has come and gone. Opening day for me is just this week though as I get ready to attend my first game of the year featuring the Washington Nationals and the Baltimore Orioles. In honor of this, and the fact that some of my most loyal readers are looking to make some money off of my super dope baseball picks, I’ll post my first picks.

The Season so far

What can I say about Baseball that has not been said a hundred times before? A baseball game is the greatest way to spend a summer day and we all know it. Inspiring incredible movies like Baseketball, Bull Durham, The Rookie, and The Benchwarmers. All of which I have watched recently to get back into the Baseball mindset. Here are my thoughts so far, and then my picks for the next week or so.

The Highs

  • What a crazy start to this season! The Devil Rays of Tampa Bay have exploded to a 14-2 start, absolutely triumphant return to form for these guys.
  • My Milwaukee Brewers have also had an incredible season so far, winning their opening series against the Cubs and then maintaining a first place position in the division. Great start, lets hope we don’t fall off like years prior
  • The Nationals are terrible…Why is that a good thing? Its means that I can go to my local MLB games regularly as the tickets are cheap. Even though it will be bad baseball, $30 for 2 tickets is an easy Friday night that I cannot complain about.

The Lows

  • The Phillies have come off of their World Series appearance with a whimper, not a bang. I feel for the city of brotherly love, it has been a tough year for them. I hope to see them come back but I’m not holding my breath.

The Picks

  • 03/17/23 Reds +1.5 over The Devil Rays
  • 03/17/23 Mets Vs Dodgers Over 8.5 runs
  • 03/18/23 Nationals +1.5 over Orioles
  • 03/18/23 Twins Money Line
  • Season Long bets- AL winner- Blue Jays
  • Brewers to win NL Central
  • Brewers to win NL
  • Mets to win NL East
  • Angels to win AL west
  • Aaron Judge to as HR leader

Lets check back in a couple days to see how our picks do. Next up we will be looking at Hockey and Basketball Playoffs. Let me know what y’all think about the above picks and let me know how much money you win.

    Wow, ces deux premiers paris sur le baseball m’ont rendu riche. Les Reds sont une si grande équipe. Cependant, je pensais que l’équipe adverse ne s’appelait plus les Devil Rays. Quelle tragédie.

    C’est aussi une bonne chose que ni les Mets ni les Dodgers n’aient appris à lancer et à attraper. Il doit s’agir d’équipes hétérosexuelles. Hahaha

    Looking forward to seeing your basketball and hockey picks! Not sure anyone will be able to take down the Bruins, but the NBA seems much more open.

    Poor Phillies are almost as bad as the Nats. I’d hate to be a Philly sports fan
