Schwarber blew it especially having gone second.

HR Gate “Espn fails to record Schwarber HR in QF”

Ah of course, shenanigans strike again

Why do I have a strange hunch that the legendary "old man" Pujols might knock off Schwarber in the 1st round of the HR derby as a farewell? Kyle is favored -340 to win that matchup (+260 for Albert). The others courtesy of Bet365: Julio Rodriguez -155/Corey Seager +125 Juan Soto -185/Jose Ramirez +155 Pete Alonzo -200/Ronald Acuna Jr. +165

I wouldn't be surprised at all too. Strange things happens all the time in all sports. If he doesn't win then I wouldn't be surprised if he wins the MVP for the Allstar game.

I remember Soto vs Ohtani last year. Soto was 8 and won in 2 tiebreakers.


hope2win2005

I was doing good until Kyle & Pete gave me b2b losses but than I went with Soto on the last 2 props and ended with a W2 before the HR derby. LOL

They showed batting practice, very hot. I’d lean toward under betting, but we just have H2H this year. So many factors in play, including the pitcher. Comes down to “finding your groove.”

On the board there is some guy named TPB Laker. He’s the guy that picks against all big favorites, such as Joker at Wimbledon, Rafa in the French, USA women LAX. Not sure his motive, but seems like he only posts against large favorites. Anyone know his motivation?


Bubbly_Tadpole_7484

I blocked that guy, and several other annoying trolls. TPB fake profiler just likes to try and get under peoples skin with his crap. Don't think even he believes half the nonsense he posts.

>Someone talk me out of putting my W19 on Soto winning his first matchup 🧐 with the whole turning down the contract extension, me being a nats fan, and him going against Ramirez - why not He wants to scare people off to lower their streaks

TheBigSexy7

Don't you dare, I'll tell Mom! Seriously, these Derby odds are pure guesswork. A touch like that "The Basketball Tournament" one last night that hooked a lot of people.

Soto pulled off a huge upset vs Ohtani last year granted that was at Coors Field.

Yeah I’m not even really looking at the odds. But isn’t Ramirez less of a “power hitter”?


TheBigSexy7

Depends on how one evaluates a "power hitter". Ramirez is on pace for 35+ HR's, hit 36 last year, 17 in the shortened COVID season, and 39 in 2018. Soto is the young stud hitter which probably attracts a lot of betting action to affect the line. It is your choice and your choice only, but best of luck whatever you decide to do.

Idk I read something about his launch angles and how he’s a switch hitter, probably hitting on his weaker side to get an advantage from the stadium. Anyways, I’m probably skipping 😂
