NC Dinos vs SSG Landers 5/5/24 Pick: NC Dinos
The Dinos are playing really well on the year and compared to SSG has an amazing pitching staff. I am going to look for the Dinos to be able to continue to play well on the pitching side of the ball and be able to pick up a win again here as the Dinos pitching does amazing and keeps the Landers offense in check to secure the win.
