You made some money if you followed Saturday’s picks.
Three winners — the Yankees, Braves and A's — a push — Tampa Bay/Baltimore over — and just for good measure Ronald Acuna homered as predicted.
Let’s try to do it again Sunday.
Odds: Rays -185; Orioles +170
Pitchers: Dylan Cease vs. Jakob Junis
Odds: White Sox -125; Royals +105
Pitchers: Robby Allard vs. Jeff Samardzija
Odds: Rangers even; Giants -110
Single: Junis was supposed to be one of the Royals top two starters but tested positive for COVID-19 and makes his debut today. He’s ready. In Cease’s only start against the Royals a year ago he lost 11-0. Take the Royals.
Double: The Rangers/Giants game matches pitchers with a 13-year age difference. Robby Allard, 22, pitched well in his debut this season and will try to avoid a sweep today. Samardzjia, the 35-year-old, one-time football player, is 0-2 with a 6.30 ERA in his career vs. Texas.
Triple: I can’t believe the Rays will be swept by the Orioles. Put them in parlays with the Royals and Rangers.
Home Run: Let’s go with Texas’ Joey Gallo and Tampa Bay’s JI-Man Choi.
