Somewhere O'Hearn the Rainbow

Nothing like a giant Hawaiian dude playing a tiny ukulele to celebrate a Saturday!

There are buttload of TBA’s for pitchers today as I write this up, so there’s a decent chance I send out a quick update later this morning of any changes/additions to the least.

Put the Ketel on the Stove and Let's Get COOKING

OK party people … we been a little cold as of late, weather has been dumb and offense has been down across MLB but today’s slate looks GREAT and we are ready to have ourselves a DAY.

Short slate today so just a handful of plays, but great to see our old friend Ronald Acuña, Jr. make his first appearance of the season in the Pitch Mix Picks. Let’s have ourselves a DAY!!!

No Rizz in This Drizz(le)

No candy coating here … today’s slate sucks. “A light drizzle with a temperature around 55-60” is pretty much all over the place, and that ain’t good hitting weather.

Where the Dongs At?

We in a bit of a home run drought this week. Not just us, all of MLB. Over the weekend it was the two lowest rates of home runs per game of the whole season.

Let's Have a Monday Funday!

Let’s have ourselves a day today in Plunderville, shall we?

It's Not Rocket Surgery

Sometimes these plays involve a lot of research and analysis, and then sometimes the Yankees face a terrible pitcher at Coors and you just go with that.

Vlad the Impaler

Yeah … this Vlad pictured was a very bad dude, so we’re gonna root for “New Vlad” instead and hope our Blue Jay friend starts our Saturday off with a bang.

Let's Have a Long Dong Weekend!

Quick Plunder Update: I Messed Up

Quick update for 5/21 … Thank you to premium member Sully for pointing out that I screwed up the Judge/Goldschmidt play for today and mistakenly ran those...

What Universe Is This?

WTF is going on here? What universe are we in? Is this the Matrix? Is this real life?

The Gang's All Here

Some days we have picks where its one player from this game, one player from that game, etc. etc. Then there’s days like today where it’s like “Hey 27 guys on this one team are all in play.” So we either all in or all out … and you know how we roll … ALL IN!!!!

No Case of the Mondays Here!

We in the groove right now. Obviously it’s a long season and we’ve also been in the “not groove” in the recent past, so we are always grateful for what we have.

Give Us Some Drake's Cakes

What a week … what a week! Here’s to closing it out strong with a Sunday Funday!

Thank You Sir, May I Have Another?

Seemed like a fitting reference as we target two players in our top picks that have taken great joy in punishing us this season.

Don't Sheets Your Pants

This week has been better than whatever the F that debacle was to start the month. Let’s keep it going!!

Size Matters (That's What She Said)

Quick Plunder Update: Some adds/drops
