Rays vs. Royals, 2:10 ETA 1-2 day was not what I was looking to try and have happen yesterday. I know that when you're running hot you want to get more bets in, and when you're running cold, you should tighten up a bit. I have not been running hot and still decided it would be a good idea to play three games. The results were not what I was looking for. We will see what happens today as I am heading back to the drawing board with this one between the Rays and Royals. The Rays are 10 games above .500.

Blue Jays vs. Guardians, 6:40 ETWhen I first started writing baseball articles for Outkick about three years ago, I was on an absolute tear. I won over 70 units the first year. 70 units might not sound like a ton, or maybe it does. It is always difficult to interpret what another person will think of a number like that. The next two seasons were more of the same, but this one has been different. It hasn't been a bad year, but it certainly hasn't been consistent.

Nationals vs. Padres, 4:10 ETA couple years ago, the two teams in this game made a big trade. The Washington Nationals sent over Juan Soto to the Padres. It was at this point that I started to believe the Padres were going to be the best team in the National League and probably the best team in baseball. The Nationals were never expected to try and resign Soto, so they figured, eh, let's get some value for him. Makes total sense. The Padres were in win-now mode.

Diamondbacks vs. White Sox, 2:10 ETThe only description I can provide for my pick yesterday is this: brutal. The two pitchers that had an ideal scenario and situation both sputtered. The reigning Cy Young still captured the victory, but he gave up four runs in the first two innings. The other starter had allowed four earned runs on the road all season, and yesterday he allowed seven.

Cubs vs. Cardinals, 7:45 ETI put out a parlay on Sunday and it was… not good. I had an under in one game - one team flew over the total by themselves. I had an over for the team total in another game, and they got very little offense going. The third game I also took an under, and the game was another easy over. The only one I got right, which ruined any chance anyone had of just fading my picks, was the Brewers winning their game.
