Happy 4th of July.........

After a dramatic extra innings win for the Cubs, the Propick money tree continues its tradition of giving. I expect more of the same today. With the Cubs coming through the past 2 games, I am sticking with them again today. The Cubs are a streaky team and the trend has been to play both sides of their streaks, until proven otherwise. In addition, the Brewers are sending ex Met "great" Braden Looper to the mound-enough said. The Play......the Cubs -155 over the Brewers. My next play is the Toronto Blue Jays -115 over the New York Yankees. My rule of thumb usually involves taking the Yankees anytime they are an underdog. Furthermore, the contrarian in me says Wang has to pitch better going forward. All that being said, I am taking the Jays and their ace Roy Halliday to beat the Yanks today.
