I hope my readers enjoyed Labor Day weekend as much as Diamond. The unofficial end of summer means it’s time to get back on the horse. And even though football is dominating our minds, it’s still the home stretch of baseball season. Below are my picks. Use your winnings to keep the LDW party going, to buy some healthier food after the hot dogs and hamburgers off the grill this weekend, or do what Diamond does and let it ride.

• White Sox at Orioles: Over 8.5 runs
• Dodgers at Angels: Dodgers -1.5

Pick of the day: White Sox at Orioles Over 8.5 runs

Diamond’s Overall Record: 5-2 (1-1 Pick of the Day)
