St. Louis Cardinals at Colorado Rockies prediction, pick for Wednesday 7/23/25

Don’t look now, but the Rockies are red-hot coming into today’s matchup with the Cardinals.

That’s a big […]

With the MLB Trade Deadline just over a week away, we’re starting to be on high alert for #HugWatch. You know, when a player gets traded mid-game, so they just start hugging all their teammates in the dugout? I doubt that happens in today’s tilt between the Royals and the Cubs, yet there is a […]

10 players who will definitely get traded at the 2025 MLB Trade Deadline

MLB•MLB

We are just over a week away from the 2025 MLB Trade Deadline and, with apologies to Bryan Baker, we have yet to see a big name get dealt. I’d expect that starts to change very soon. The difficult aspect of this year’s trade deadline is that so many teams find themselves in a bit […]

New York Yankees at Toronto Blue Jays prediction, pick for Monday 7/22/25

I’ll admit it. I’m a major baseball nerd and the following stat makes me giddy. Tonight’s contest between the Yankees and the Blue Jays will feature a pitching matchup between Cam Schlittler and Max Scherzer. It will be Schittler’s second-career start at the MLB level. For Scherzer? It’ll be his 463rd. You can’t get two […]

Home Run Prop Bet Picks, Predictions for Red Sox at Phillies Monday 7/21/25

Four years ago, you wouldn’t want to touch a Zack Wheeler vs. Walker Buehler matchup from a home run prop betting perspective. However, this evening is a different story — as least as it pertains to Buehler. The 30-year-old has struggled in his time with the Red Sox and now he’ll be asked to shut […]

Home Run Prop Bet Picks, Predictions for Tigers at Pirates Monday 7/21/25

In general, this probably isn’t the game you want to be looking at for home run potential on Monday’s slate. Putting aside the fact that the Pirates have hit the fewest number of long balls in MLB (66) or that Paul Skenes will be taking the mound this evening, PNC Park has been the worst […]
