Seattle Mariners at Los Angeles Angels Free MLB Picks & Odds
by Tony Sink - 3/30/2014

Neither Seattle nor the L.A. Angels are in a spot to take a wait and see approach anymore after having two of the largest payrolls in baseball.

2014 St. Louis Cardinals Free MLB Picks for Futures Odds with Season Predictions
by Alan Matthews - 2/27/2014

Is that decision not to sign Albert Pujols to a $240 million or whatever extension looking better and better each year for the St. Louis Cardinals or what? Pujols looks like a shell of his former self with the L.A. Angels, and the Cards haven't missed him. They reached the NLCS in 2012 and last year won 97 games -- St. Louis' most since 2005 -- and returned to the Fall Classic. The Cardinals lost to Boston in six games because they couldn't get David Ortiz out.
