MLB - Industry Expert Consensus - August 30th

A full boat of games on Tuesday. Once again tonight, the Consensus offers us several options on the bump but little the way of stacking options. I'm a bit surprised that more Cardinals did not make the list based off the fact they drop bombs…

MLB – On the Hill – August 30

My pitcher recommendations went well Monday night with the top pitcher on the slate, Carlos Martinez, and a solid outing by Matt Shoemaker. Jake Arrieta, on the other hand, was a different story. Enough about the past, let’s look to the future…

MLB – Industry Expert Consensus – August 15th

Monday night features a solid nine-game slate of MLB action including a game at Coors Field with the only true ace pitcher on the mound. Pitching options are wide open but some hitters rose to the top such as Marcus Semien and Adrian Beltre.…

MLB – On the Hill – August 15

Monday night’s nine-game slate is all about strikeouts. There are not many strong pitching options that combine a favorable matchup with strikeout upside so I am going to just focus on the pitchers that have big strikeout upside and hope that…

MLB - Industry Expert Consensus - August 9th

After a plethora of options last night, the Consensus leaves us a bit short-handed tonight. Odd because we've added another expert to the fold which, you would think, would mean more Consensus players. Do you roster Zack Greinke in his first…

MLB – On the Hill – August 9

Tuesday features a 14-game night slate (minus an afternoon game at Coors Field) which includes a few different high-priced ace pitchers to choose from. As I was doing my research today, I found myself preferring pitchers throwing at home and…

BvP for MVP - Aug. 9

A lot has happened in the world of baseball since Friday's BvP for MVP. Mark Teixeira and A-Rod each announced their retirement and Ichiro got much-deserved reverence for his 3,000th career hit. Also, Manny Machado popped 3 homeruns in the…

MLB - Industry Expert Consensus - July 29th

There are 14 games on Friday night and only one true ace taking the hill. If you load up with Scherzer, the Consensus does not provide a lot of value plays this evening. However, if you pay down at pitcher, you can load up with some power bats...and…

MLB – On the Hill – July 29

Wednesday night produced some solid picks with Lance McCullers and Gerrit Cole coming in as the top two pitchers of the night but I ended up on the wrong side of the Jimmy Nelson/Archie Bradley matchup. Friday features a 14-game slate (minus…

MLB – Industry Expert Consensus – June 29th

Here is the Industry Expert Consensus picks for Wednesday night’s eight-game slate. There are three pitching options that bubbled to the top with Max Scherzer, Danny Salazar and Carlos Martinez being selected by at least seven experts. On…

BvP for MVP - June 29

Not gonna beat around the bush today, got a lot on my plate today, so not much of a narrative for this Hump Day. Today we have a split slate of games, the usual Wednesday baseball. As usual, we will only focus on the night set of games, which…

MLB – On the Hill – June 24

I might have an aspiring “On the Hill” writer with my son who came up with his own Darkhorse pick yesterday when he selected Albert Suarez at 0.9% owned in a Double Up to help easily bring home a winning lineup. I guess I better make sure…
