Sunday's MLB Best Bets: Drew Rasmussen, Kutter Crawford, and the Strikeout Watch List
We made it people. It's Sunday. This one happens to be the last "soccer Sunday" of my summer which feels pretty damn good. It's not that I don't like watching my kids play soccer, I do. It's just that it gets in the way of gambling. Big time. Waking up at 5:30 am to find bets isn't ideal on a Sunday morning. I do it because of the love for the game though. No complaints. I'm sure I'm not the only one with things to do so I'll tell you what makes it easier. The Strikeout Watch List. All we have to do is find a couple of spots where we can get the right lineup that could provide us with a ladder to the moon. Then, we go about our business and wait for these managers to post the lineups. We then check their lineup with our list and if it somewhat matches, we go to the moon. I know, it's genius.
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. Also, don't forget to be somebody today.
