The Republican National Convention begins today.
Current odds for the Vice Presidency show J.D. Vance (+136) as the betting favorite.
Doug Burgum, Marco Rubio, Tulsi Gabbard, Tim Scott and Nikki Haley are possible choices but with all the thoughts and prayers of healing sent to Donald Trump, Pastor Joel Osteen is the play at +5000.
Home Run Derby day.
The favorite: The Mets’ Pete Alonso.
Joel Osteen swings a mean bat, but he doesn’t have a prayer, so we will go with Marcell Ozuna (+475, Caesars) for $50.
