Welp, I went 0/3 yesterday. Good news is that it can't get any worse! haha

1)Giants: Win against the Padres?

Darvish and the Padres are huge favorites(-197). Definitely 'no' on this one.

2)Yankees: Win by 3 or more runs?

The other day I said that no major league team is ever expected to win by 3 or more runs vs another major league team. Well, today, the Yankee's implied run total is 5.49 and the Tigers' total is 2.51. Yup, a coin toss. I have Cole on my fantasy team so I'm going 'yes!'

3)Buxton: reach base 2 or more times?

Buxton has been smoking hot to start the year and has an OBP of .471. Interestingly, he only has 2 walks and it's tough(impossible) to keep his current pace. He's also been hitting in front of Nelly Cruz and while that's great for 'hits,' he's not going to get any IBB. I just flipped a coin and I'm going with 'No.'
If you're not having fun, you're losing.

    I might have jinxed you on this one. I apologize in advance because I had put the same answers as well. 😞

    Of course Buxton reaches base twice with a hit and a walk in his first two plate appearances. 🤦🏻‍♂️
