    Analysis

    Trying to hold my tongue here but a couple of utterly ridiculous managerial decisions just hammered me Saturday. What Atlanta's Walt Weiss did ... I'm baffled. Just utter stupidity, man, and I haven't managed since Little League. I thought Rays manager Kevin Cash made a horrible 10th inning decision as well in Saturday's loss, but I give him the benefit of the doubt. A 12:15 game at the Trop on a gorgeous Florida Sunday. Crickets and gators, holmes. Will be empty unless there is an early-bird Cocoon-type special ($4.99 chicken-fried steak with peas, sweet taters and an apricot dessert; gross), so the only home-field edge will be batting last. Sad they play in that mausoleum because it should be a great baseball outdoors day.

    Picked: May 17 @ 12:59pm

    Analysis

    Yeah we will go again on the Braves and hope their manager stays out of the dang way this time. The Red Sox surely will not have unhittable closer Aroldis Chapman available as he has pitched in three games since Wednesday including the past two. Starting pitcher Brayan Bello has a 7.11 road ERA. The Atlanta pen has basically everyone available behind meh Grant Holmes (2-1, 4.35 ERA).

    Bases
    Picked: May 17 @ 1:27pm

    Analysis

    TJ Friedl has had a poor start to the season with a .184 batting average, but has had extended time off. His last start was this past Tuesday, where he went 1 for 5 and also had a stolen base. Gavin Williams has also been vulnerable in the hits allowed department, where he has given up 8 and 10 hits his last two starts. Value play on Friedl where he can get over half a hit to cash.

    Pitcher Strikeouts
    Picked: May 17 @ 10:48am

    Analysis

    Caesar’s. Nathan Eovaldi should be in a great spot against the reeling Astros today. Not only have Houston been brutal at the plate of late (26% K% and a .651 OPS against righties over the last two weeks), but we could see an even softer lineup today. Jose Altuve left yesterday’s game with a side injury, and we’re likely to see the third string catcher in action as well. Eovaldi does not need much help to clear this line as he’s over in 5/8 starts as is.

    Bases
    Picked: May 17 @ 1:36pm

    Analysis

    The Arizona Diamondbacks have taken a cautious approach with Lourdes Gurriel Jr returning from injury. Arizona’s last series against Texas was the first that Gurriel Jr played in each game. Now he has went over his combination line in both games against the Colorado Rockies. Love the opportunity for Gurriel Jr. to record a hit in an entire series for the first time this year. Take his combination props and total bases over.
