MLB Playoffs

WICKED WILDCARD LOCK PICK

Oakland @ Kansas City (-106)


Well folks, it's that magical time of year once again. The waining moments of baseball are upon us as we wait in anticipation for the NHL season to kick off. My early picks for the Cup will be later this week so be sure to check the site soon. Back to bazeball! The Oakland A's were a force to be reckoned with half way through this season. Their pitchers were carving batters up and their bats were on point. Kansas City at that time was struggling. Flip the page to today and you see a different story. That Oakland team dropped off worse than the Detroit Lions after Barry Sanders retired; meanwhile those Royals down in KC made a legitimate push to dethrone the Tigers as division champs. Which brings us to tonight, a one game, winner takes all, playoff in Kansas City. The Royals haven't had a playoff game in like seven hundred years. I expect that place to be popping off like vegas when Johnny Fuckin Football comes town. Royals continue to roll and take down the A's tonight. Oakland will spend all summer justifying what the hell happened to them this year.

Free MLB Picks

BJ's Freaky, Smoaky MLB Picks

Day by day my love of picking baseball gets closer to matching Sugar's overall love of the game. And as Sugar has come back from his tour of 5 of the most famous ballparks in America, I had to pick his brain a little. Here's a little wisdom he dropped on me, about America's game: People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring."

That's deep stuff right there, something only a true wood slinger can relate to. Today, I'm going to go HAM and offer more ridiculous baseball picks, based on pretty much nothing. 

San Francisco (+1.5) @ Arizona (WINNER!)
Lincecum PitchLet's hope we get the good "Freak" tonight and not the extremely erratic, 10 home runs in the first Freak a strong outing from Lincecum guarantees a cover. Of course he might not play with food poisoning so there's that too.

Boston (+1.5) @ Baltimore (WINNER!)

Toronto @ Tampa (-150) (WINNER!)
Tampa needs to turn this shit around! They've been consistent losers all week!

Houston (+1.5) at NY Yankees (L)
Smoak Home RunYeah, I'm taking the Blastros, what of it?! They've beat the hell out of the Yankees this week and though they ma be the Philadelphia 76ers of the MLB, I ain't scared!

Seattle (+1.5) @ Oakland (WINNER!)
Well I thought last night was a bad pick and this new guy James Paxton came out and dominated. Tonight is an even worse idea as the Mariners start trotting out random dudes at pitcher. We did see another Smoak Bomb yesterday, so I have no choice but to ride the Smoak Monster into battle!
