SSG Landers vs Hanwha Eagles 5/1/24 Pick: Hanwha Eagles
Hanwha is playing at home and have done decent at home so far this year. However, we are picking the Eagles here mainly because of their better pitching staff. That may sound a little weird, but the Eagles are a team that is going to be able to get the win here based off of their better small ball play as well. Still, one thing that I really like here is the over in this game here.
