I’ll be honest, I might be a little distracted from baseball this week. There’s $1 million on the line in DFS golf with the U.S. Open looming Thursday at the Oakmont Country Club. It’s the second major of the season and DraftKIngs second Millionaire Maker golf contest. I will have some focus, but will definitely […]
What a 15-game slate we have on tap tonight. We have games at Coors, Chase Field, Miller Park, Rogers Centre and Yankee Stadium. We have gas cans, garbage tossers or camel thumpers (new nickname for gas cans, whatcha think?) Then, we have a slew of aces to choose from – Kershaw, Cueto, Strasburg, Sale and […]
Let me say this now, I am all in on the Rangers at home tonight against the most unfortunately named Doug Fister. I’ll get into that intro statement a little later, but we got off to a great start to the week. Today is the weekly Wednesday split and so we will focus only on the […]
Welcome back to another installment of BvP for MVP. Before we get started, some acknowledgement needs to be given to one of our own. Mr. Brad (unofficial nickname) has been killing it with his pitcher picks of late via his “On The Hill” write up, including a perfect day of picking last week. He’s atop […]
Before we get to today’s picks, I would like to recognize that I am in complete celebratory mode today. Yesterday I completed by 4th year of teaching. How it got to 4 years is beyond me, and a 5th is imminent unless I somehow can take down a ton of baseball and golf GPPs with […]
Hey, June! We are into the third month of the 2016 season. I hope your winnings have been fruitful and your losses bare. June is the time of the year where we start to feel summer’s unbearable heat with July and August being the worst months to feel its torturous grip. We have an 11-game […]
Long time no see! I am back after an extended break, treading water in a lake and throwing back a few brews. I am eager to get back into the swing of things. Last time out, I stunk up the place. It wasn’t my finest performance, but even the greatest of players for 0-for-4, throw […]
Today will be the last installment of BvP for MVP for this week. Keep in mind that today also is the Wednesday Split Slates and we only provide BvP picks for the evening tilts. Unfortunately for BvP addicts like myself, tonight’s slate leaves a lot to be desired for BvP data and for finding pitching […]
This week we will only have two editions of BvP for MVP as I will be going out of town on Thursday for an annual outing that I attend with my father and his buddies. They call the place Flatrock and this group of fellows have been going for nearly all 33 years of my […]
Today is my one-year anniversary. No, not my wedding, not sobriety, not the day we brought our puppy home, not the day I became a teacher… This is the day last year that I hauled in my biggest DFS win ever. I relive that moment a lot because I was less than 2 points from […]
As I started writing this, I mentioned how Chase Anderson had a no-hitter through 7, and then I guess I jinxed him. Ben Zobrist roped a double to center to lead off the 8th. Oh well, if you had Chase Anderson last night (the two of you out there), then you likely had a solid […]
Rougned Odor already was becoming my favorite Ranger, then the Punch Hear Around the World happened Sunday… Now, I think there was a base for this brawl starting in the first place, and that was the Joey Bats’ bat flip in last year’s playoffs. I don’t think there is any coincidence that some kind of blowup […]
