MIKE'S PHILLIES/RANGERS MLB BOOKIE BLA$TER

The Rangers won all four meetings with Philly last year and they are 9-1 in the last 10 head-to-heads. For this season, they've added ace Jacob deGrom, arguably the most dominant pitcher in baseball when healthy, to the rotation. deGrom is 9-1 with a 2.18 ERA in 20 outings against the Phillies. Texas will be an interesting team to follow this year and I think they'll get the W here on Opening Day. 

8* PLAY ON TEXAS RANGERS. 

Mike Lundin's Pirates vs Reds MLB Free Pick

Pittsburgh righty Mitch Keller is 1-4 with a 6.80 ERA in 11 career starts versus the Reds. He face them three times last year and gave up 11 runs on 16 hits over 14 innings.

Cincinnati righty Hunter Greene made two starts against the Pirates last season and held them to two runs on four hits over 13 1/3 innings of work.

MIKE'S 10* NBA TOTAL GAME OF THE MONTH

New Orleans is playing a lot better defense than they're getting credit for. In their last five games, the Pels have held opponents to 100.0 ppg and the under is 6-1 in their last seven games and 9-2 in Pelicans last 11 vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Denver is also solid defensively and the under is 6-0 in the Nuggets last six gams and 9-2 in Nuggets last 11 vs. a team with a losing straight up record.

10* PLAY ON UNDER. 

MIKE'S LATE NIGHT MLB RUNLINE RIPPER

OK this looks like a big mismatch on the mound with Shohei Ohtani (15-9, 2.33 ERA in 2022)´going up against the A's left-hander Kyle Muller (1-1, 8.03 ERA in 2022), but note that Ohtani is only 4-4 in 10 lifetime starts against Oakland. I don't think LAA should be this big of a favorite, and if they win it'll not be by more than one run. 

8* PLAY ON OAKLAND ATHLETICS +1.5. 

MIKE'S ORIOLES/RED SOX MLB BOOKIE BOMBER

Baltimore righty Kyle Gibson is 3-4 with a 3.38 ERA in eight career meetings with Boston. Red Sox righty Corey Kluber is 6-4 with an ERA of 3.94 in 16 career starts vs. Baltimore. Boston deserves to be a favorite, but the price is right to back a Baltimore team that had a +11.7% ROI as road underdogs last season. 

8* PLAY ON BALTIMORE ORIOLES. 

MIKE'S GUARDIANS/MARINERS MLB BOOKIE BU$TER

Cleveland righty Shane Bieber is 1-2 with a 3.19 ERA in five career starts versus the Mariners while Seattle right-hander Luis Castillo is 1-3 with a 5.04 ERA in six career starts versus the Guardians. While the Mariners won six of seven meetings last year, I think the Guardians are undervalued in this matchup. 

8* PLAY ON CLEVELAND GUARDIANS.
