ANALYSIS

Monday Early MLB Looks: What Starting Pitchers Should Be On Today's Strikeout Watch?

Studies show that gambling is the only way to boost your enjoyment on a Monday by at least 17%. That's a minimum people. In most cases, it's much higher. When we're talking parlays, forget about it. The sky is the limit. The thing is, during the week we need to win. We can't just be betting just to bet like we do on Saturdays. We're talking weekday approach here. It's kind of like a mullet, business in the front, party in the back. We're in the front part right now. What we need to do is be prepared. I'm telling you, people, MLB is getting to the point where we see teams roll out the strikeout lineups. Guys need days off so they let other guys play who are going to whiff multiple times. All we have to do is know the names of the whiff artists. When we see enough of them, they create what I like to call a "smash spot". We're talking prices better than +150 here people. Here are a couple to look out for today.
