Wednesday, July 5, 2023 Chicago Cubs vs. Milwaukee Brewers (WIN) When you hover around the All-Star Game, you must severely limit your plays until the dust clears. Teams are jockeying lineups & rotations regularly in hopes of finding the best chemistry for the 2nd half stretch run. However, I feel a play is warranted here with the Cubbies' Justin Steele.

Tuesday, June 20, 2023 College World Series Oral Roberts versus T.C.U. The only loss I suffered in college baseball this season has been when ORU slated 4 runs in the 9th to squeak out a improbable 6-5 victory on opening day over these same Horned Frogs.

We're going to take a look @ the talented Shohei Ohtani of the Angels this afternoon. My book on him shows he has a mean slider and 98 mph four-seam fastball with a tail that devastates most hitters.
