Saturday's MLB Best Bets: Eric Lauer, Dean Kremer, and the Strikeout Watch List
We've made it to Saturday where losses don't count so it's time to swing for the fences. The first thing I thought to do to celebrate was put out the Strikeout Watch List. This thing has been a weapon lately. We're talking about something that could get banned at some point. The books can't have us just climbing ladders to the moon every day. They'll go out of business. That's just how business works. We've actually reached the point where people are just playing these guys' standard lines and calling it a day which isn't even fair since this article is 15-1 in the last 16 when considering those. I don't condone that type of behavior because I like to work for my cash but it's something that should be noted. I wasn't even going to bring it up.
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. If we don't see at least five of these names in each lineup, walk away. We'll find something better. Don't forget to be somebody today.
