Diamondbacks vs. Cubs prediction: Chicago the pick

Mayor Eric Adams saying the migrant crisis “will destroy New York City” is like Oakland A’s manager Mark Kotsay saying that 97th loss killed our playoff chances.

What’s left to destroy?

Look out behind you, Mayor; there’s another bus coming.

The NFL is back.

We destroyed (OK, by a half game) the competition to win the all-important Best Bet division in last year’s pick box. Repeat?

The D’backs’ Zac Gallen is one of the best pitchers in baseball.

Nevertheless, Gallen has lost two straight.

Didn’t look good doing it, allowing 11 runs, 17 hits over 10 ²/₃.

Snakes visit Wrigley, where the Cubs’ Jameson Taillon, a former Yankee, has pitched well.

Taillon was rocked by the Reds in Cincy in his last start but has given up six runs in his last 23 innings at home.

Play $50 on the surging Cubs.

Impeccable timing.

We bet against the Yankees after they had won eight of nine, and the Tigers spanked them, 10-3.

Spencer Torkelson homered twice.

Winner. Down -944 williehortons.
