“Hey Stitch. The Islanders left their home in the same condition Hunter Biden did in his last residence. With beer cans littering the floor.” — Joe, a Rangers fan in Garden City.

The red hot Nationals were cooled off by the Marlins on Friday night. Max “you want me to take my clothes off” Scherzer (6-4, ERA 2.19) goes on Sunday. He has given up two runs over his last 13 innings. Miami’s Sandy Alcantara (4-6, ERA 2.93) has been just as good, allowing just three runs over his past 22 innings.

Hey, keep your pants on Max, I’m getting to the pick! With Kyle Schwarber (25 homers) teeing off daily we will take the Nationals and Mighty Max for 20 units.


The Tigers, yes the Tigers, snapped the Astros’ 11 game winning streak. Final score 3-1. Zack Short’s long two-run homer off Framber Valdez was the difference. Win takes us to -1,465 mcauliffes.
