Read below for Johnny’s Quick Picks for April 08 2024
MLB BABY!
Houston (+115) at Texas
I’m going for Houston to go on a roll. Framber’s stuff has been electric. How many games can this team lose? I’m going to catch a wave. Texas is Texas, but at some point, the Astros have to start to hit.
Pick: Houston (+115)
Tigers at Pirates (-130)
I’m loving me some Pirates baseball! They are finding way to win, they are young, they love the game and they are having fun. The Tigers just lost a series at home to Oakland (Sacramento), scoring one run in two games. They came within a hair of getting swept. I’m going with the Bucs’ Mitch Keller, who needs to get back on track — and fast.
Pick: Bucs (-130)
Phils (+105) at Cards
Phillies starter Spencer Turnbull is back from Tommy John surgery. His first start was solid: five innings, no runs, seven punch-outs with no BB. The Cards just lost to Miami (LOL). Cardinals Clown Show.
Pick: Phils (+105)
NHL
Pens (+130) at Leafs
Tough game. Can the Pens keep winning? In the infamous words of the late great Mets closer Tug McGraw: “Ya gotta believe!”
Pick: Pens (+130)
College Hoops
Purdue (+7) Vs. UConn
It’s the battle of the bigs. It’s the battle of the treys. We’ve got a battle in the paint and a battle of the boards. It’s an epic battle of the two best teams in college basketball right now. I’ll take Purdue and the points in a very close game!
