“Hey Stitch, how can I get a futures line on the new Pope?” — Jimmy Heimbuch

Good timing, Jimmy.

The Papal Conclave begins May 7, but the early odds are in.

While President Trump joked, “I’d like to be Pope” he is a long shot at best.

Here are the current odds according to OLBG.com:

Pietro Parolin is 2-1. Luis Antonio Tagle is 5-2. Pierbattista Pizzaballa, the obvious Stitches pick, is 7-1 and Rev. Al Sharpton is 2,000-1.

From Cardinals to Cardinals. St. Louis is at Cincinnati.

Matthew Liberatore starts for the Birds.

The middle-reliever-turned starter has allowed 11 runs and 28 hits over 31 innings, but has walked only two batters.

We haven’t seen that level of control since Cory Booker gave his 25-hour speech without making a pit stop.

Andrew Abbott is 2-0, fanning 20 in 15 innings.

Play $50 on Cincy.

The Blight Sox committed three errors that led to two unearned runs and lost to the Brew Crew 6-4. Skid’s at four.

And we’re down -378 konerkos.
