Today's Pick
A bit of a steep price but we haven't offered many of these as picks, plus we've done well with a few good dogs over the season so we are on Arizona -197 with Greinke in desperation mode and the Padres providing the perfect remedy. There is an argument to be had for the UNDER here but we're not willing to go that route.
