While the skin turns from somewhat red to tan down here is Florida, the picks record keeps going farther into the red. It's hard to believe that this game picker is this bad this consistently. Perhaps Anonymous from the other day can be hired to take over. Here's how we could work it (if you are ...
Game Picks - Thursday: June 11, 2009
passion4baseball.blogspot.com 6/11/2009 — Seven more days until this picker can head to Florida to sit by Mom's pool and read a few good books. Never before has that pending trip been so needed. These old bones need some Florida heat to recoup and recover. As for these baseball picks, recovery was short lived. But as in life, where this ...
Game Picks - Monday: June 22, 2009
passion4baseball.blogspot.com 6/22/2009 — It was a brutal day for the game picker yesterday. Everything went wrong that could go wrong. The picker could pluck an excuse out of the deck if needed though. The strong Florida sun made the picker's head go light. Yes, that's it. It's the Florida sun's fault. There that is settled. Now that ...
Game Picks - Friday: June 26, 2009
passion4baseball.blogspot.com 6/26/2009 — We're still stuck in a Florida malaise. Haven't had a good day with the picks since last week. Haven't had a good week in Lord knows how long. It's really hard to cry about it when a wonderful pool is waiting and the last third of Berra by Barra is awaiting perusal. It was pretty cool, however, ...
Game Picks - Tuesday: June 16, 2009
passion4baseball.blogspot.com 6/16/2009 — This game picker can finally say that yesterday was a perfect day. There were no incorrect picks while finishing a major contract order for hardcover books. What a job that was. Been working from early in the morning until midnight for weeks now. But it is finished and in two days, this ...
Game Picks - Wednesday: June 24, 2009
passion4baseball.blogspot.com 6/24/2009 — The fun in the Florida sun continues, while the ick in the Florida picks also continues. Watched a lot of baseball last night. Saw Matt Wieters hit his second homer. Watched the Marlins win in twelve innings (thus ruining that pick). Watched the Cubs benefit from a blown save by Joel Zumaya only ...
Game Picks - Sunday: June 28, 2009
passion4baseball.blogspot.com 6/28/2009 — Another day in Paradise. Last night, the town of Lake Worth had their fireworks. They always set them off the Saturday before the Fourth of July. They were spectacular. Florida seems to do the best job with fireworks of any state in the Union. This picker has sat on the beach of Fort Lauderdale ...
Game Picks - Tuesday: June 30, 2009
passion4baseball.blogspot.com 6/30/2009 — It was a maunder Monday as the picks came out dead even. Considering that Halladay lost and Porcello lost and this picker actually thought the Mets could beat the Brewers with that AAA team they are fielding, the results are understandable.Rant: The Fan has been picking games on BallHype.com ...
Game Picks - Saturday: June 27, 2009
passion4baseball.blogspot.com 6/27/2009 — Well holy smokes! This picker actually had a decent night. If Soto hadn't hit the jack"pot" with a homer, it could have been better. But all in all, Romero was an alpha. Gardner was "shear" brilliance. Beckett's performance wasn't at all novel. Millwood ground out another win. And Ethier was ...
Game Picks - Monday: June 8, 2009
passion4baseball.blogspot.com 6/8/2009 — Thanks to some encouragement from a really nice comment on yesterday's game picks post, this picker will no longer whine at the vagaries of this nutty season in Major League Baseball. Instead, this picker will enjoy the ride and the summer no matter what happens. And like the comment suggested, ...
Game Picks - Saturday: June 13, 2009
passion4baseball.blogspot.com 6/13/2009 — Interleague baseball is in full swing. American League teams won nine of the fourteen contests so that has to color any pick during this jog in the schedule. This picker fared fairly well during interleague's first day and will try to build on that over the weekend. Of the incorrect picks from ...
Why Ricky Nolasco Gets It Now —
Bleacher Report - MLB 6/25/2009
Ricky Nolasco had a breakout season last year when he went 15-8 with a 3.52 ERA, and he was in the top five for most victories in the National League. It was good enough for him to be the team's Opening Day starter this season.
Much was expected ...
