LA ANGELS(Suarez) OVER 4.5 total runs vs Chicago White Sox(Velasquez)-----Angels average 5 runs per game and Velasquez,  I think,  is below average.(Lose 4-0...........utter suck)

LA ANGELS(Syndergaard) +112 over Chicago White Sox(Giolito)-----Giolito has gone 4 innings per game and there is just no comparison between these offenses.  Angels are good,  CWS is poor.(Win 5-1........FanDuel gives me the win even it was Herget and not Syndergaard...........Taylor Ward 3-5 HR)

BOSTON RED SOX(Hill) -1.5(+120) over Baltimore Orioles(Bradish)-------Only 2 teams have scored fewer runs than the pathetic Orioles.   Go with Hill;  Hill is for children.(Win 3-1........Christian Arroyo HR, 2 RBI and Christian Vazquez RBI.......the supremacy of Jesus Christ rises.........as the Marlins also win.  We are cleansed.)

OAKLAND A's(Montas) -142 over Cleveland Guardians(Civale)---------Despite not hitting, Oakland has a decent record.   Civale has gotten rocked every time out this year.(Lose 9-8........Montas gets rocked, Domingo Acevedo takes the Loss)

ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS(Bumgarner) +168 over Stl Cardinals(Wainwright)------Bumgarner has been good,  but AZ has only scored 3 runs per game.   Wainwright is hittable.........I hope Arizona hits him.(Win 6-2.........6 RBI from 6 different Diamondbacks...........Daulton Varsho 2-5)

CINCINNATI REDS(Greene) +105 over Colorado Rockies(Senzatela)-----Reds have by far the worst record in baseball.   Who's managing these clowns?  David Bell.   Senzatela is throwing a .448 average but has only walked 1 person.   If the Reds can't hit Senzatela and lose,  they should all retire.(Lose 10-4.......Time to check out,  Reds..........Senzatela dominated you.)

WASHINGTON NATIONALS(Corbin) +126 over Miami Marlins(Rogers)----Can Washington be.......the 6-14 bad that they are?  7 straight losses scoring 3 runs or less in all games.  Who is managing this team?  Ok, Dave Martinez.   Of course,  Corbin and all of them need to do better.  They are at home.(Lose 3-2..........4 total hits by Nationals in this game,  and they score 14 Runs the next day)

BALTIMORE ORIOLES(Zimmerman) +196 over New York Yankees(Taillon)(Lose 10-5)

BALTIMORE ORIOLES(Zimmerman) +1.5(-102) over New York Yankees(Taillon)----Orioles, at 6-12,  and their offense has been weak.  But Zimmerman is good.(Lose 10-5..........Orioles outhit Yankees 14-10 and lose by 5 runs.)

KANSAS CITY ROYALS(Keller) +160 over Chicago White Sox(Kopech)---------Both pitchers are good;  both offenses don't hit well.......yet.(Win 5-2..........Kyle Isbel 2-4)

CHICAGO CUBS(Leiter) +180 over Atlanta Braves(Morton)------Cubs have scored 14 more runs than the Braves and are hitting 36pts higher.   Leiter doesn't look so good,  but look at Morton:  rocked by Dodgers and San Diego.(Win 6-3...........Patrick Wisdom HR...........David Robertson picks up the Win.........Suzuki 2-5)

COLORADO ROCKIES(Feltner) +184 over Philadelphia Phillies(Suarez)----I'm not sure how good Suarez is.  But Ryan Feltner definitely has my initials.  No,  Brendan Rodgers shouldn't be hitting .078.  But Rockies,  so far,  have been offensively capable.(Lose 7-3.........Feltner throws 96mph but he was a little worse than Suarez.   Jose Iglesias went 4-4 for us,  which means something)

DETROIT TIGERS(Pineda) +180 over Minnesota Twins(Ryan)-----Pineda against his old team and its +180?   The way Detroit lost last night had conspiracy written all over it.  I think it reverses today.(Lose 5-0............Tigers get 2 Hits.........total.  The team not only sucks,  it is cursed.   I don't know why)

BOSTON RED SOX(Wacha) +130 over Toronto Blue Jays(Stripling)-------Boston has more offensive potential than what they've showed.  But Wacha has been great......and I wanna play him here.(Win 7-1..........Xander Bogaerts 4-4,  Rob Refsnyder going in in the 9th for the PHRBI.   There's hope for these Red Sox)

SEATTLE MARINERS(Gilbert) +119 over Tampa Bay Rays(Wisler)-----Gilbert is pretty good and Wisler will probably go 1 inning.(Win 8-4.........Josh Fleming took the Loss on 0 ER,  which means there were some Errors for us)

Arizona Diamondbacks(Kelly) vs La Dodgers(Buehler) UNDER 9(-122)-----I wanna play Kelly in this game but AZ is really not hitting.  These teams have gone UNDER in their games 20 out of 29 tries.(Win 4-0..............good win)

SEATTLE MARINERS(Ray) -175 over Kansas City Royals(Hernandez)(Win 5-4)

SEATTLE MARINERS(Ray) -1.5(+114) over Kansas City Royals(Hernandez)-----Seattle is on a 5-1 run.(Lose 5-4.........didn't score enough)

La Angels(Syndergaard) vs Baltimore Orioles(Watkins) UNDER 8.5------Out of 13 games played,  Baltimore has gone Under the total 12 times.(Lose 5-4........Loop and Tepera lost this but it was really a throwing Error on Rendon,  which #20 Jarred Walsh couldn't catch,  when he definitely should have,  at 1st base.......that made this loss so damaging.)

TORONTO BLUE JAYS(Manoah) -122 over Houston Astros(Urquidy)(Win 3-2)

NEW YORK METS(Williams) -128 over Arizona Diamondbacks(Castellanos)(Lose 5-2.........Williams)

BOSTON RED SOX(Whitlock) +108 over Tampa Bay Rays(Feyereisen)-----Neither of these pitchers are starters.  But they've done well.  I think there's potential in Boston for a better offensive performance than we've seen.  So I'll try this.(Lose 3-2........0-0 going into the 10th.........Hansel Robles gives up the game-losing HR to Kevin Kiermaier.  Brutal)

COLORADO ROCKIES(Senzatela) +126 over Detroit Tigers(Skubal)----Senzatela is hittable,  so I usually don't play him.  But with batters hitting .281 off him lifetime,  he is 2 games above .500 lifetime.  Obviously,  the Rockies are hitting now........and Detroit is not.  (Lose 13-0........first time Detroit hits...........Robbie Grossman 3-4)

Minnesota Twins(Bundy) vs Chicago White Sox(Velasquez) UNDER 9(-120)(Lose 9-2.........Vince Velazquez totally rocked)

MILWAUKEE BREWERS(Houser) +132 over Philadelphia Phillies(Wheeler)-------Brewers hitting a sickly .205,  yet they are 8-6.  Wheeler was good last year........but maybe not this year.  I think Adrian Houser could do well here.(Win 5-3..........Hunter Renfroe 3-4 HR)

BALTIMORE ORIOLES(Zimmerman) +161 over La Angels(Detmers)(Win 5-3)

BALTIMORE ORIOLES(Zimmerman) +1.5(-125) over La Angels(Detmers)----Orioles have not hit.  But Detmers has done badly and Zimmerman has done good.  Orioles pitching has been good........and Zimmerman has been in there for half of Baltimore's total wins.(Robinson Chirinos 2-4...........Santander 2 R.  Thanks for hitting a little, Orioles)

CHICAGO WHITE SOX(Kopech) -103 over Minnesota Twins(Ober)-----White Sox need to step it up on offense.  They are better than what they've done.  Their starter here is very good this year.(Lose 2-1.....Kopech did very well.......1-0 lead in bottom of 8th with 2 outs.  Graveman on the mound and he would take the Loss.   One-hopper speared by Tim Anderson as SS and he throws it away.  Then 1st baseman throws it away to home plate.........for no reason.  2 runs score on the play and the game is over.  White Sox have a serious problem.   They have Luis Robert,  who could be the best player in the game.  But their gross underperformance hitting is salient.)

SEATTLE MARINERS(Gilbert) -147 over Texas Rangers(Dunning)(Win 4-2.........Abraham Toro 2-2 2BBs,  Adam Frazier 3-4)

DETROIT TIGERS(Alexander) +192 over New York Yankees(Cole)-----Cole is averaging less than 5 inn per start.  Tigers' offense languishing,  but these teams' records are about the same.(Lose 4-2......What a malign disgrace;  Cole did his part,  walking 5 in 1 2/3 innings.  It was a bases loaded 2-Run pop up right in front of home plate that was in Alexander's glove and slid out that kicked off the disgrace.   But what was more disgraceful than that?  Tigers only having 4 Hits?)

NEW YORK METS(Megill) -120 over San Francisco Giants(Cobb)(PPD)

NEW YORK METS(Megill) -1.5(+176) over San Francisco Giants(Cobb)----SF is 7-2,  but Megill hasn't walked anyone in 10 innings.(PPD)

Arizona Diamondbacks(Bumgarner) vs Washington Nationals(Gray) UNDER 8.5-----Besides Beer,  AZ's offense is phenomenally terrible.  Gray, in fact,  was born on December 21st;  hopefully he'll hand in there.(PPD)

COLORADO ROCKIES(Kuhl) +146 over Philadelphia Phillies(Nola)-----Starters have been doing half of these games or less.   Nola's fastball moves,  but this is Colorado,  in Colorado.  Rockies are 6-3 while Phillies are 4-6.  (Win 4-1.......Blackmon HR,  Sam Hilliard 2-3)

SAN DIEGO PADRES(Manaea) over Cincinnati Reds(Lodolo) parlayed with OAKLAND A's(Montas) over Baltimore Orioles(Watkins) +148--------Lodolo's a clown;  Watkins was bad last year and Orioles,  at 3-6,  there's no hitting going on.(Win 4-1 and 5-1.........Manny Machado 3-4 HR)

DETROIT TIGERS(Manning) +108 over Kansas City Royals(Bubic)(Lose 3-1..........Considering that Miles Mikolas won 10-1 on the previous day,  I'll deem it an 'inconsistency' that Matt Manning wasn't given enough help to win here.)

MIAMI MARLINS(Rogers) +100 over Philadelphia Phillies(Suarez)(Lose 10-3......Trevor Rogers is a tall, dumb thug with a fast but wild fastball.  He gets 5 outs while walking 4,  allows 7 Runs.  The announcers did talk him up.........before he even did a damn thing.  Which wasn't lucky.   But the guy sucks---no off-speed pitches in the strike zone.)

OAKLAND A's(Blackburn) +196 over Toronto Blue Jays(Ryu)(Win 7-5........GWHR by Cristian Pache,  driving in Christian Bethancourt.  Sean Murphy 2-4, HR)

WASHINGTON NATIONALS(Rogers) +105 over Pittsburgh Pirates(Wilson)(Lose 6-4..........Didn't wanna lose this,  but Nationals are sorry......

https://www.post-gazette.com/news/crime-courts/2022/04/17/pittsburgh-shooting-north-side-east-allegheny-update-public-safety/stories/202204170168(Up to 200 people — many of them underage — were attending a large party at an Airbnb rental property near the intersection of Suismon Street and Madison Avenue on the North Side when dozens of shots rang out around 12:30 a.m., officials said.....

   The Allegheny County Medical Examiner’s office identified the two 17-year-olds who died as Mathew Steffy-Ross, of Pitcairn, and Jaiden Brown, no home address listed.)

 COLORADO ROCKIES(Marquez) -116 over Chicago Cubs(Stroman)(Win 6-5)

LA ANGELS(Detmers) -112 over Texas Rangers(Bush)(Win 9-6.......Ohtani 2 HRs.........Jo Adell HR.......Jarred Walsh 2-5 HR,  Suzuki HR.........Austin Warren gets the W)

WASHINGTON NATIONALS(Adon) +114 over Pittsburgh Pirates(Brubaker)(Lose 9-4.....I thought Adon was ok,  just wasn't gonna beat the Mets.  But now..........god he sucks: 9 Hits in 4 innings.   You know PNC stole my bank, right?  That's why we hate Pittsburgh so much)

STL CARDINALS(Wainwright) +125 over Milwaukee Brewers(Woodruff)---Brewers not hitting yet;  Woodruff got rocked by Cubs.   This price is......pretty good.(Lose 5-1........STL has 5 hits and Wainwright can't handle it)

PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES(Gibson) +107 over Miami Marlins(Alcantara)(Lose 4-3.....You know, I don't hate Phillies offense,  thought it might be good(they in fact outhit Miami 11-6).  And with Gibson,  whose first start was good, I just thought.........No,  Phillies are gonna suck this year.  Another year of disappointment.  No chance.  Suck)

SEATTLE MARINERS(Ray) +105 over Chicago White Sox(Keuchel)-----Ray walked 4 in 7inn his first start;  that's not too bad.  Mariners should start hitting here.(Lose 6-4.........Rained me out.  HEAVY rain.  Raining like hell in this game.  Ray gets rocked giving 10 hits in 6 inn and #7 Tim Anderson goes 3-4, HR to crush me)

NEW YORK METS(Scherzer) -102 over Philadelphia Phillies(Nola)(Win 9-6......Pete Alonso 3-5 HR,  Brandon Nimmo HR,  Eduardo Escobar 3 BB)

COLORADO ROCKIES(Kuhl) +144 over Texas Rangers(Perez)-----Rockies are 3-1 and they're hitting.  They do have Rodgers.......and you saw Josh Rogers win big for Washington yesterday.   Perhaps this line is such because they think Kuhl is weak.  Well,  he did walk people last year,  but .252 BA against.  Interestingly enough,  we have in ChaD KuHl the initials of recently departed Dewayne Haskins.  Umm,  not sure why that happened.  We'll play him at this price.(Win 4-1..........he got the job done but Chacin got the W)

CHICAGO WHITE SOX(Velasquez) -116 over Seattle Mariners(Brash)(Win 3-2..........Luis Robert HR, 2 SB,  Reese McGuire 2-3)

LA ANGELS(Lorenzen) -135 over Miami Marlins(Hernandez)-----Angels averaging only 2.5 runs per game---they are not hitting.  However,  we have Michael Kopech winning yesterday,  Michael Chavis going 3-4 and winning and Mike Brosseau having the GW HR for Milwaukee yesterday.   So we go with Michael today.(Win 6-2...........Brandon Marsh HR, Jo Adell HR, 2-4..........Lorenzen 2 Hits and 0 Walks)

OAKLAND A's(Blackburn) +199 over Tampa Bay Rays(Patino)------A's do have Cristian Pache.  Tampa swept their first series and Oakland only won 1.(Win 13-2.........Andrus 3-5, HR,  Pinder HR,  Sheldon Neuse 3-5, HR,  Seth Brown HR)

NEW YORK METS(Walker) +131 over Philadelphia Phillies(Lose 5-4..........Seth Lugo L,  2ER)

COLORADO ROCKIES(Marquez) +134 over La Dodgers(Gonsolin)-----Rockies did get Kris Bryant,  and their lineup looks pretty healthy with Blackmon and Joe.  But they only scored 3 yesterday.  Gonsolin walked people last year.(Win 3-2...........Connor Joe 2-4, GWHR,   German Marquez: 7 3 1 0 5)

NEW YORK METS(Bassitt) -143 over Washington Nationals(Adon)------Adon is an unknown,  but Mets really look to be in shape---they now have Scherzer AND Bassitt.(Win 5-0)

Arizona(Kelly) vs San Diego(Manaea) UNDER 9(-121)---Only 7 hits in the game yesterday;  its not National Beer Day today and Manaea's pretty good.(Win 3-0)

ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS(Bumgarner) +121 over San Diego Padres(Darvish)(Win 4-2 ..........Bumgarner did not stick around after those walks.........Seth Beer with the GW HR on National Beer Day)

WASHINGTON WIZARDS +10.5 over Atlanta Hawks-----Atlanta is 5 points better on offense, so they're giving 5.5 for home court.  Wizards have had a good and bursty last 3 or 4.(Lose 118-103)

NORTH CAROLINA TAR HEELS +4 over Kansas Jayhawks------Baylor,  UCLA,  St Peter's,  Duke and now.............mass shooter's name was 'Martin',  on Kansas........and he killed 'Davis'.  It should mean yet another NC victory.  Kansas names don't impress;  Christian Braun, maybe,  but not when Russia is committing Nazi-atrocities in Ukraine and saying they're just killing Nazis.(Win 72-69.......'Davis' is the third "killed name" that has subsequently lost in this tournament----after 'Sampson' and 'Peter' Monsini.   To me,  that's a sign that God has abandoned this Evil planet.   NC cashed for me,  but blowing a 15-pt lead in 9 minutes is pretty embarrassing)

DUKE BLUE DEVILS -4.5 over North Carolina Tar Heels-----Well,  I just saw 'Morbius' and the guy's name is "Michael" Morbius.  I thought the movie had some relation to me,  as I had a high number of blood transfusions---though I never chugged a pack like he does,  in the late 1980's.  "Mike" is of course the name of Duke's coach.   I walked through Meijers and this black guy is talking on his phone:  "I don't care if you're black, white or purple...........In fact,  my neighbor is black,  so I am angry".  That's just not Love,  the name of the NC player.  Furthermore,  Duke has the Revenge.  Statistically,  the line should be 8,  so its a good deal by a few points if you like Duke.   And of course,  NC beat St Peter's,  which never should have happened,  but that it did.........and Chris "Rock" got slapped.  Now,  we see Villanova getting punished for beating Houston,  which was the team that should have won it all.  I can definitely see NC getting punished for beating St Peter's.(Lose 81-77.........AJ Griffin 1-7 FG...........Jeremy Roach 2-11 FG,  0-5 on 3s.  What I apparently forgot was that Duke is a horrible, shitty basketball team)

LA LAKERS -1 over New Orleans Pelicans-----James should be back for this game.  Lakers do have home-off-road-loss for last night's game and the home Revenge,  for that game just a few days ago where they lost WITH James.(Lose 114-111...........While the game ended with a LeBron James air-ball,  it was clearly Anthony Davis who lost this game:

         8:17 left and Lakers lead is 6

         1:57 left Davis Foul

         4:07   Davis misses 2 Free Throws

         2:38   Davis misses a floater

         2:16   Davis miss)

OKLAHOMA STATE THUNDER +5 over Detroit Pistons------Gilgeous-Alexander is OUT for the season, and this must be the reason Okc is the underdog.  But they still have Robinson-Earl and Roby.  Detroit played last night.(Lose 110-101)
