If you’re someone who likes easy money, does it disturb you that Aaron Judge has gone 15 games without hitting a home run? Would it surprise you and would you have bet on him hitting one during this three-game visit to Wrigley?

The touts at the various online gambling websites would have you believe their 5Star picks are sure things. Yet, these professionals still are working. Even if you don’t consider betting, one has to wonder what the in-game probability was for the Mets yesterday as they were being no-hit by the Jays in the 8th inning? Yet, the moment Francisco Lindor broke up the no-hitter with a homer in the 9th, it seemed like the Mets were destined to win 6-2.

The beauty of the game is its unpredictability. Having just pointed out Judge’s home run draught, I wouldn’t be surprised if he went on a mini-binge and finished the season with 62 homers-I just wouldn’t bet on it.
