At 5:05 pm, our selection is on the San Francisco Giants over the Pittsburgh Pirates.  It's not every day you hear about a pitcher having an entire season derailed by a bad ankle.  But that was the situation with the Giants' Anthony DeSclafani.  The problems began with DeSclafani's right ankle in August of 2021 and continued on throughout the first half of 2022 to the point where the 33-year-old RHP finally went for surgery in July of last season.  Overall, he was limited to just five starts and 19 IP in 2022, so it was a lost season.  But DeSclafani is back in 2023 and so far it appears he is as good as ever with his new ankle.  In 10 starts covering just over 60 innings, DeSclafani is 3-4 with a 3.43 ERA and 1.04 WHIP and a League-leading walk rate of just 1.3 per nine IP.  Start number 11 will come in this Memorial Day matinee at home against the Pirates whose fast start to the season has slowed down considerably over the past few weeks.  Pittsburgh is 1-6 in the last seven meetings and 0-4 in the last four here in San Francisco.  Take the Giants.  As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

At 8:30 pm, on Monday, our selection is on the UNDER in Game 7 between Boston and Miami.  We played on the Under in each of Games 5 and Game 6, and got the $$$ in both.  And we'll come right back with the Under in this Game 7, on Memorial Day.  As I mentioned in those previous write-ups, the Celtics have gone under 17-5 in elimination games, including the last 10 straight.  And #2-seeded teams are 21-3 under in their last 24 elimination games, including 12 straight.  Miami, meanwhile, will be playing its first elimination game in the Playoffs this season.  And it's 16-9 under in elimination games.  We'll ride with the under once again.  Good luck, as always....Al McMordie.
