Thursday Early MLB Looks: What Starting Pitchers Should Be on Today's Strikeout Watch?

Thursday Early MLB Looks: What Starting Pitchers Should Be on Today's Strikeout Watch?

We woke up today so obviously, it's time to gamble. That's just how waking up works. But I'm telling you now, we need a plan. We can't just be throwing out bets like we're teenagers anymore. It's time for us to prey on the books instead of the other way around. Those guys have it coming. What we need is a list of calculated targets. It sounds easy at first but it's not. It just isn't. I wish it was. Take yesterday's watch list. We had four solid targets and not one of their opponents sent us five sacrificial lambs in the starting lineup. Only one of our studs got home because of it. These managers are fighting back so we need to be on our toes. We're gamblers though so it's cool, we got it but still, let's keep our guard up a little.

Remember, we need to see AT LEAST five of these batters in these lineups when they are released. If that happens, get ready to fire away. Be somebody today.
