04-27-23 | A's v. Angels -1.5 | Top | 7-8 | Loss | -135 | 6 h 56 m | Show |
20* AL GAME OF THE WEEK on Los Angeles Angels -1.5 (-135) The Los Angeles Angels are hitting the cover off the ball right now and living up to their potential offensively. They have scored a total of 38 runs in their last five games overall, which is why I'm willing to back them on the Run Line today against the lowly Oakland A's with ace Shohei Ohtani on the mound. Ohtani is 3-0 with a 0.64 ERA and 0.821 WHIP in five starts this season. Ohtani owns the A's, allowing one earned run in 25 innings in his last four starts against them for a minuscule 0.36 ERA. He has allowed 2 earned runs or fewer in each of his last seven starts against Oakland. The A's are 5-20 this season scoring 3.7 runs per game and allowing 8.2 runs per game, getting outscored by 4.5 runs per game. JP Sears is 0-1 with a 4.98 ERA in four starts this season for Oakland, including 0-1 with a 5.73 ERA in two road starts. Oakland is 1-15 after losing four or five of its last six games this season and losing by 5.5 runs per game in this spot. Bet the Angels on the Run Line Friday. |

04-27-23 | Mariners +100 v. Phillies | 0-1 | Loss | -100 | 3 h 36 m | Show | |
15* MLB Thursday Undervalued Underdog on Seattle Mariners +100 The Seattle Mariners have the advantage on the mound today and should not be underdogs to the Philadelphia Phillies as a result. They will also be motivated to bounce back from blowing a 5-2 lead late yesterday. George Kirby is 2-1 with a 3.57 ERA and 1.059 WHIP in four starts this season with only one walk and one homer allowed in 22 2/3 innings. He'll be opposed by Matt Strahm, who has allowed 6 earned runs and 2 homers in 8 innings in his last two starts against Colorado and Cincinnati coming in. Seattle is 61-34 with a money line of +100 to -150 over the last three seasons, including 28-11 on the road with a money line of +100 to -150 over this span. Bet the Mariners Thursday. |

04-27-23 | Marlins v. Braves UNDER 8.5 | 5-4 | Loss | -110 | 2 h 17 m | Show | |
15* MLB Thursday Early ANNIHILATOR on Marlins/Braves UNDER 8.5 The forecast is going to help us cash this UNDER between the Marlins and Braves this afternoon. There are expected to be 10 MPH winds blowing in from left and temps in the 50's in Atlanta. The Marlins are scoring just 3.2 runs per game this season. Braxton Garrett is off to a great start this season for the Marlins at 1-0 with a 2.25 ERA while allowing just 4 earned runs in 16 innings without a homer. Kyle Wright has worse numbers, but he will shut down the Marlins today. Wright is 3-0 with a 0.00 ERA in his last three starts against the Marlins while pitching 17 shutout innings with 24 K's. Garrett has posted a 3.29 ERA in three career starts against Atlanta and has allowed only 2 earned runs in 10 2/3 innings in his last two starts against the Braves. The UNDER is 16-4 in Garrett's 20 starts over the past two seasons. The UNDER is 9-1 in Garrett's last 10 starts in the first half of the season. The UNDER is 7-0 in Garrett's last seven starts vs. teams that average 1.25 or more homers per game. Bet the UNDER in this game Thursday. |

04-26-23 | Warriors v. Kings -120 | Top | 123-116 | Loss | -120 | 73 h 41 m | Show |
20* Warriors/Kings TNT Late-Night BAILOUT on Sacramento ML -120 I locked in this pick before the D'Aaron Fox news of the fractured tip of his finger, but the injury doesn't seem to serious and he's expected to play. So that was great news, and you'll get a better line on the Kings now if you haven't bet it already. I still like the Kings at the current price. Sacramento has one of the best home-court advantages in the NBA when they are good, and the atmospheres for Games 1 and 2 were tremendous. They won both games, and I expect them to take Game 5 and regain control of this series at home tonight. The Warriors are 11-32 SU & 13-30 ATS on the road this season. They have been the worst NBA playoff team in the NBA on the highway this season. And it just shows that the Kings are the better team when you consider Golden State played nearly a perfect Game 4 and still only won by a single point. They shot 50% overall, 41.2% from 3 and 91.7% from the FT line. That's not going to happen in Sacramento. The Warriors are 15-36-1 ATS in their last 52 road games. The Kings are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games following a loss. Sacramento is 7-3 ATS in its last 10 home meetings with Golden State. Bet the Kings in Game 5 Wednesday. |

15* AL PLAY OF THE DAY on Los Angeles Angels -1.5 (-107) The Oakland A's are 5-19 this season scoring just 3.7 runs per game and allowing 8.0 runs per game, getting outscored by 4.3 runs per game. They have been the worst team in baseball by a wide margin up to this point, so it's easy to see why I'm fading them on the Run Line with the Angels tonight. Los Angeles has a big advantage on the mound in this one. Patrick Sandoval is 1-1 with a 3.37 ERA in four starts this season for the Angels. Sandoval has owned the A's with a 1.84 ERA and 1.143 WHIP in nine career starts against them. Luis Medina will be making his first start of the season for the A's. Bet the Angels on the Run Line Wednesday. |

04-26-23 | Padres v. Cubs -105 | Top | 5-3 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 4 m | Show |
20* NL GAME OF THE WEEK on Chicago Cubs -105 The Chicago Cubs have been one of the most underrated teams in baseball to start the season and continue to be. They are 13-9 and scoring 5.8 runs per game while allowing 3.7 runs per game, outscoring opponents by 2.1 runs per game. Conversely, the San Diego Padres have been one of the most overrated teams in baseball. They are 12-13 this season and scoring just 3.7 runs per game while allowing 4.4 runs per game. Yet they continue to get priced like they are a World Series favorite. The Padres have faced nine left-handed starters this season and are hitting .216 and scoring just 2.8 runs per game in those nine games. Now they must face lefty Drew Smyly, who is 2-0 with a 0.98 ERA and 0.545 WHIP in his last three starts while allowing just 2 earned runs and 10 base runners in 18 1/3 innings. The Cubs will tee off on Michael Wacha, who is 2-1 with a 7.08 ERA and 1.722 WHIP in four starts this season while allowing 16 earned runs and 35 base runners in 20 1/3 innings. Wacha is 4-9 with a 6.44 ERA and 1.609 WHIP in 19 career starts against the Cubs. Smyly is 1-1 with a 2.25 ERA and 0.583 WHIP in two career starts against the Padres. Bet the Cubs Wednesday. |

04-26-23 | Lakers v. Grizzlies UNDER 222 | 99-116 | Win | 100 | 11 h 28 m | Show | |
15* NBA Wednesday Total DOMINATOR on Lakers/Grizzlies UNDER 222 Familiarity favors defense and low scoring games. After combining for 240 points in Game 1, the Lakes and Grizzlies have combined for 196 points in Game 2, 212 points in Game 3 and 208 points at the end of regulation in Game 4. I think the fact that Game 4 went to OT and finished at 228 is keeping this total higher than it should be, and there's tremendous value with the UNDER. The Lakers have been the best defensive team in the NBA since the All-Star Break, which is the biggest reason for their resurgence. They have held the Grizzlies to 112, 103, 101 and 104 points at the end of regulation in this series. Memphis is a great defensive team as well with Defensive POTY Jaren Jackson Jr. anchoring them. JA Morant being banged up also hampers the Grizzlies offensively. The UNDER is 16-5-1 in the last 22 meetings. The UNDER is 10-1-1 in the last 12 meetings in Memphis. The UNDER is 10-3 in Grizzlies last 13 games vs. a team with a winning record. Bet the UNDER in Game 5 Wednesday. |

15* Knicks/Cavaliers NBA TV ANNIHILATOR on Cleveland -5.5 I'll gladly back the more motivated Cleveland Cavaliers with their backs against the wall tonight against a New York Knicks team that can relax a little after taking a 3-1 series lead by winning both games at home. This game will play out similarly to Game 2 when the Cavaliers bounced back from an upset home loss in Game 1 with a 107-90 blowout in a game that was never competitive. Cleveland has one of the best home-court advantages in the NBA as they are 32-11 at home this season. The Cavaliers are 9-1 ATS in home games after failing to cover the spread in four or five of their last six games this season. Bet the Cavaliers in Game 5 Wednesday. |

15* Interleague PLAY OF THE DAY on Arizona Diamondbacks -135 The Kansas City Royals are 1-9 in their last 10 games overall. They have been held to 4 runs or fewer in all nine losses and are hitting .214 and scoring 3.3 runs per game on the season. Their bullpen has a 6.30 ERA and their starting staff has been terrible as well as teams are hitting .265 and scoring 5.6 runs per game against them. The Arizona Diamondbacks have been one of the most underrated teams in baseball this season at 13-11 on the season and $100/game bettors up $655 on them. Ryne Nelson has held his own in his first full season as a starter at 1-0 with a 4.91 ERA and 1.182 WHIP in four starts. The Diamondbacks will tee off on Brady Singer, who is 1-2 with an 8.14 ERA and 1.524 WHIP in four starts this season. Singer has allowed 18 earned runs and 5 homers in 16 innings in his last three starts coming in. The Royals are 15-38 in their last 53 road games. Kansas City is 3-14 in its last 17 interleague games vs. a right-handed starter. The Royals are 14-41 in their last 55 road games vs. a right-handed starter. Arizona is 5-1 in the last six meetings. Bet the Diamondbacks Tuesday. |

15* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY on Minnesota Timberwolves +10 The close out game is always the hardest, especially for a team like the Denver Nuggets that has been a disappointment in the playoffs for years under Nikola Jokic. They failed to close out the Timberwolves in Game 4 and lost in OT, giving Minnesota new life. I think the Timberwolves are a dangerous team now playing on house money catching 10 points against the Nuggets in Game 5. They have been competitive in each of the last three games, which have all been decided by 9 points or less. Game 1 can pretty much be thrown out because it was a terrible spot for the Timberwolves coming off a pair of play-in games and on little rest. The Timberwolves are 24-9 ATS in their last 33 meetings in Denver. The Nuggets are 21-35 ATS in their last 56 home games after playing a road game. Bet the Timberwolves in Game 5 Tuesday. |

20* MLB Tuesday No-Doubt Rout on Atlanta Braves -1.5 (-115) The Atlanta Braves came into this series on a four-game losing streak against the Astros and Padres. They took a step down in class against the Marlins and promptly crushed them 11-0 in Game 1. I was on the Braves Run Line in that game, and I'm back on it again today as it should be more of the same in Game 2. Charlie Morton is 2-2 with a 3.22 ERA in four starts this season. Morton is 11-5 with a 3.96 ERA and 1.198 WHIP in 21 career starts against Miami. The Braves are 4-1 in his last five starts against Miami with all four wins by 2 runs or more. He has allowed just 9 earned runs in 31 innings in those five starts. Brian Hoeing will be making his first start of the season for the Marlins. He went 1-1 with a 12.08 ERA and 1.895 WHIP as a rookie last season allowing 17 earned runs and 5 homers in 12 2/3 innings. It's not going to go very well for him to start 2023, either. The Braves are 21-5 after losing three of their last four games. The Braves are 60-25 in the last 85 meetings, and 40-16 in the last 56 meetings in Atlanta. Atlanta is 40-13 in its last 53 games following a win. The Braves are 48-19 in their last 67 home games. Bet the Braves on the Run Line Tuesday. |

04-25-23 | Astros v. Rays OVER 7.5 | 5-0 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 28 m | Show | |
15* Astros/Rays AL ANNIHILATOR on OVER 7.5 The Tampa Bay Rays are scoring 6.8 runs per game overall including 7.3 runs per game at home. They are more than capable of covering this 7.5-run total on their own. But the Astros will contribute as they are scoring 5.0 runs per game overall and 5.2 runs per game at home. While Drew Rasmussen has great numbers for the Rays thus far, he has done most of his damage against bad offenses in Oakland and Cincinnati. He was tagged for 5 earned runs and 12 base runners in 4 1/3 innings at Toronto against the best lineup he has faced. He allowed 6 earned runs in 13 innings in two starts against the Astros last season. Luis Garcia is off to a rough start this season for the Astros. He is 1-2 with a 5.14 ERA and 1.381 WHIP in four starts while allowing 12 earned runs, 3 homers and 29 base runners in 21 innings. Houston is 11-3 OVER in night games this season. Tampa Bay is 14-5 OVER when the total is 7 to 8.5 this season. The OVER is 5-0 in Astros last five road games vs. a right-handed starter, and 12-3-1 in their last 16 games overall against a right-handed starter. Bet the OVER in this game Tuesday. |

They are 17-7 OVER in their 24 games while scoring 5.7 runs per game and allowing 5.2 runs per game. The Baltimore Orioles have also trended to the OVER at 12-9-1 to the OVER and scoring 5.1 runs per game. Corey Kluber is 0-4 with an 8.50 ERA and 1.5000 WHIP in 18 starts this season while allowing 17 earned runs and 6 homers in 18 innings. Kluber is 0-3 with a 10.29 ERA in his last three starts against Baltimore, allowing 16 earned runs and 3 homers in 14 innings. Kyle Bradish has been decent in his two starts this season, but he cannot handle Boston. Bradish is 0-3 with a 7.54 ERA and 1.500 WHIP in five career starts against the Red Sox, allowing 19 earned runs and 4 homers in 22 2/3 innings. The OVER is 34-15 in Kluber's 49 career road starts with a total of 8 to 8.5 runs. The OVER is 10-1 in Red Sox last 11 road games vs. a right-handed starter. The OVER is 8-0 in Red Sox last eight games with a total of 7 to 8.5 runs. The OVER is 4-0 in the last four meetings. Bet the OVER in this game Tuesday. |

20* Grizzlies/Lakers TNT Late-Night BAILOUT on Los Angeles -4 The Los Angeles Lakers are simply the better team in this series. They are fully healthy and showing what they are capable of when that's the case. They are now 12-3 SU In their last 15 games overall and came up clutch just trying to make the playoffs, and that has carried over into the postseason. The Grizzlies are missing key players in Steven Adams and Brandon Clark, which really hurts them defensively. Dillon Brooks is a mad man whose head isn't in this series, and he's more concerned with his antics. And JA Morant suffered a wrist injury in Game 1 that he's playing through, plus another injury in the final seconds of Game 3 to his lower leg that could hamper him heading into Game 4. I think it says everything that Morant had 45 points in Game 3 and the Grizzlies were still never in that game or competitive. They trailed 38-9 to start the game and most of his points came in garbage time with the game pretty much decided. The Grizzlies don't have very good depth off the bench, while this is some of the best depth LeBron has ever had. The Lakers actually increased their lead in Game 3 when he went to the bench. Guys like Reaves, Hachimura, Russell, Schroder and Vanderbilt are playing very well to compliment LeBron and AD. Memphis is 0-17 SU & 2-15 ATS as a road underdog this season, including 1-14 ATS as a road underdog of 6 points or less. We'll continue fading the Grizzlies as road underdogs here as they have been a terrible team away from home all season, and I don't expect that to change in Game 4. Bet the Lakers in Game 4 Monday. |

20* MLB Monday No-Doubt Rout on Atlanta Braves -1.5 (-122) The Atlanta Braves will be highly motivated for a victory after losing four straight to the Astros and Padres. Now they take a big step down in class here against the Miami Marlins and have a big advantage on the mound. Ace Spencer Strider takes the mound to save the day for the Braves. Strider is 2-0 with a 2.45 ERA and 1.045 WHIP in four starts this season while allowing 6 earned runs and 23 base runners in 22 innings with a whopping 36 K's. He has never faced the Marlins, which is going to work to his advantage. Edward Cabrera is 1-1 with a 4.07 ERA and 1.754 WHIP in four starts this season while allowing 16 walks in 17 2/3 innings. His lack of control will come back to haunt him sooner rather than later. The Braves are scoring 4.8 runs per game this season while the Marlins are scoring just 3.3 runs per game. The Braves are 47-19 in their last 66 home games. Atlanta is 59-25 in the last 84 meetings. The Braves are 39-16 in the last 55 meetings in Atlanta. Bet the Braves on the Run Line Monday. |

Lynn is 2-3 with a 4.59 ERA and 1.408 WHIP in nine career starts against the Blue Jays as well. The White Sox have a decent offense, but a terrible bullpen that has a 6.22 ERA on the season. The Blue Jays have an elite offense but a mediocre bullpen that has a 4.35 ERA on the season. Chris Bassitt has been a little shaky to start the season as well, going 2-2 with a 5.40 ERA while allowing 13 earned runs and 5 homers in 21 2/3 innings. This has slug fest written all over it. The OVER is 7-0 in the last seven meetings with 10 or more combined runs in all seven. Bet the OVER in this game Monday. |

15* Interleague PLAY OF THE DAY on Texas Rangers -112 The Texas Rangers are 14-7 this season while scoring 6.6 runs per game and allowing 3.8 runs per game, outscoring opponents by 2.8 runs per game. The Cincinnati Reds are 7-15 this season while scoring 4.0 runs per game and allowing 5.0 runs per game, getting outscored by 1.0 runs per game. The Reds have really been brutal offensively during their current six-game losing streak. They have scored a total of 6 runs in the six losses while getting shut out three times. Nathan Eovaldi will shut them down tonight and has been at his best on the road with a 3.08 ERA and 1.200 WHIP in two road starts. Nick Lodolo gets a lot of hype because of his K potential, but hitters have had no problem getting after him this season, especially at home. Lodolo has a 7.36 ERA and 2.181 WHIP in three home starts this season while allowing 12 earned runs and 4 homers in 14 2/3 innings. Cincinnati is 4-22 after batting .200 or worse over a five-game span over the past two seasons. The Reds are 17-53 in their last 70 games vs. good teams outscoring opponents by 0.5 or more runs per game on the season. The Rangers are 6-1 in their last seven games overall and scoring 9.1 runs per game during this stretch. Bet the Rangers Monday. |

15* Red Sox/Orioles AL East ANNIHILATOR on OVER 8 The Boston Red Sox have been a dead nuts OVER team this season going 16-7 to the OVER in their 23 games. They have a great offense scoring 5.7 runs per game but a terrible starting staff. The Baltimore Orioles also have a suspect starting staff but have gone 11-9-1 to the OVER due to an improved offense that is scoring 5.1 runs per game. Both offenses should feast on these two gas can starting pitchers. Chris Sale is 1-1 with an 8.00 ERA and 1.667 WHIP in four starts this season for the Red Sox while allowing 16 earned runs and 5 homers in 18 innings. Dean Kremer is 1-0 with 6.16 ERA and 1.368 WHIP in four starts for the Orioles while allowing 13 earned runs and 5 homers in 19 innings. Sale allowed 7 earned runs and 3 homers in 3 innings of a 9-8 win over the Orioles in his lone start against them this season. Kremer allowed 5 earned runs and 2 homers in 3 innings opposite Sale in that 9-8 loss. The OVER is 7-0 in Red Sox last seven games with a total set of 7 to 8.5 runs.

20* Nuggets/Timberwolves TNT Late-Night BAILOUT on UNDER 225.5 Let's just look at this from a line value perspective. The total for Game 1 was 224.5 and these teams combined for 189 points. They lowered it to 222.5 and 222 for Games 2 and 3, which both went over, and now have raised it back up to 225.5 for Game 4. That's too big of an adjustment, and there's clearly value on the UNDER as a result. There's also value on the UNDER when you consider Minnesota and Denver won't be able to keep shooting as well as they have the past two games. Denver shot 54.1% and Minnesota 50.6% in Game 2 and both shot better than 45% from 3. Denver shot 57.1% in Game 3 and Minnesota 45.6%. The Nuggets specifically can't stay this hot. The pace has actually been very slow in this series, and it will be even slower in Game 4 as familiarity favors defense and low scoring games. The longer a series goes, the harder points are to come by because teams know each other so well. Minnesota is 16-4 UNDER in its last 20 home games after going over the total in its previous game. The UNDER is 12-4 in Nuggets last 16 games overall. The UNDER is 6-0-1 in Timberwolves last seven Sunday games. The UNDER is 11-5-1 in Timberwolves last 17 home games. Bet the UNDER in this game Sunday. |

04-23-23 | Kings v. Warriors UNDER 237.5 | 125-126 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 0 m | Show | |
15* Kings/Warriors ABC ANNIHILATOR on UNDER 237.5 The playoffs just have a way of slowing games down. While both Sacramento and Golden State want to play fast, it's hard to when these teams get familiar with one another and know what to expect. Familiarity favors defense and low scoring games, and that has proven to be the case in this series. After combining for 249 points in Game 1, the Warriors and Kings combined for just 220 points in Game 2 and 211 points in Game 3. So we have a lot of margin for error here with this 237.5-point total compared to the last two games. The Kings have actually done a very good job of defending the Warriors in this series and have upped their game on that end. The Warriors are a lot more locked in defensively in these playoffs, and they get their best defender in Draymond Green back. Plus getting both Wiggins and Payton II back from injury has made them a better defensive team, and Kevon Looney is holding it down inside. Golden State is 7-0 UNDER in home games after allowing 105 points or less this season. Sacramento is 14-3 UNDER in road games vs. a team with a winning record this season. The UNDER is 6-1 in Kings last seven games overall. The UNDER is 17-5-1 in Warriors last 23 games vs. a team with a winning record. The UNDER is 4-1-1 in the last six meetings. Bet the UNDER in this game Sunday. |

The Oakland A's are 4-17 this season scoring 3.5 runs per game while allowing 8.2 runs per game, getting outscored by 4.7 runs per game. It's easy to see why I'm backing the Rangers on the Run Line today. Texas ace Jacob DeGrom gets the ball today and is back to his dominant self again this season. DeGrom is 1-0 with a 3.48 ERA and 0.871 WHIP in four starts while allowing only 8 earned runs and 18 base runners in 20 2/3 innings with 32 K's. Kyle Muller is 0-1 with a 7.23 ERA and 1.982 WHIP in four starts for the A's this season, allowing 15 earned runs and 37 base runners in 18 2/3 innings. Muller allowed 7 earned runs and 10 base runners in 2 2/3 innings in his lone career starts against Texas, which came last season. Bet the Rangers on the Run Line Sunday. |

15* NL PLAY OF THE DAY on Chicago Cubs +122 A big reason for Chicago's resurgence this season is their dominance against left-handed pitching. The Cubs are 5-1 and hitting .345 while scoring 7.5 runs per game against left-handed starters this season. The rocked lefty Julio Urias in a 13-0 victory in Game 2, and now they'll get after lefty Clayton Kershaw in Game 4 today. This will be Kershaw's stiffest test of the season to date as Chicago is 10-1 in its last 11 games vs. a left-handed starter. Marcus Stroman is one of the most underrated starters in baseball. He is 2-1 with a 0.75 ERA and 0.917 WHIP in four starts this season while allowing only 2 earned runs in 24 innings without a homer. Stroman is 1-0 with a 2.12 ERA and 1.118 WHIP in three career starts against the Dodgers. The Dodgers are 0-6 in their last six games following a win.

04-23-23 | Nationals v. Twins -1.5 | Top | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 13 h 44 m | Show |
20* MLB Sunday No-Doubt Rout on Minnesota Twins -1.5 (-115) The Minnesota Twins will be highly motivated for a victory today after losing three straight and six of their last seven. They will be wanting to avoid the sweep after losing the first two games of this series to the hapless Washington Nationals as -310 and -235 favorites. But after facing two underrated starters for the Nationals in the first two games of this series, now they get to face one of the worst starters in all of baseball. Patrick Corbin went 9-16 with a 5.82 ERA and 1.468 WHIP in 31 starts in 2021 and 6-19 with a 6.31 ERA and 1.697 WHIP In 31 starts in 2022. Corbin is now 1-2 with a 6.30 ERA and 1.750 WHIP in four starts in 2023 to remain a gas can this season. Bailey Ober has posted a 3.82 ERA and 1.146 WHIP in two seasons in the big leagues across 148 1/3 innings. He will be making his first start of 2023 and I expect him to shut down the Nationals for as long as he's in there. And playing from ahead, the Twins will utilize all their best bullpen arms to protect what will be a multiple-run lead. Minnesota is 14-6 following three or more consecutive losses over the last two seasons and winning by 2.0 runs per game in this spot. They haven't lost four straight this season and won't start today against a Nationals team that is 33-72 in their last 105 games overall. Minnesota is 10-2 in its last 12 home games vs. a left-handed starter. Bet the Twins on the Run Line Sunday. |

15* MLB Sunday Undervalued Underdog on Detroit Tigers +162 The Detroit Tigers had won five in a row prior to their current three-game losing streak. They will be highly motivated to avoid the sweep after losing the first two games of this series to the Baltimore Orioles, who I suspect will suffer a natural letdown after winning the first two of this series and five straight overall. The Tigers actually have the advantage on the mound today, so they should not be this big of underdogs to the Orioles. Eduardo Rodriquez is 1-2 with a 3.00 ERA and 1.042 WHIP in four starts this season. He has allowed just 1 earned run and 12 base runners in 14 innings in his last two starts against Toronto and Cleveland. Grayson Rodriquez is 0-0 with a 6.91 ERA and 1.605 WHIP in three starts for the Orioles this season, allowing 11 earned runs and 23 base runners in 14 1/3 innings. Rodriquez has owned the Orioles, going 13-5 with a 3.02 ERA and 1.164 WHIP in 21 career starts against them. Amazingly, Rodriquez is 10-0 with a 1.72 ERA in his last 11 starts against the Orioles while allowing only 13 earned runs in 68 innings. His teams are a perfect 11-0 in his last 11 starts against Baltimore. Bet the Tigers Sunday. |

20* Interleague GAME OF THE WEEK on Atlanta Braves -128 The Atlanta Braves will be highly motivated to avoid the sweep after losing the first two games of this series at home to the Houston Astros. They have their ace on the mound Sunday to get the job done. Max Fried is 1-0 with a 1.08 ERA and 0.960 WHIP in two starts this season for the Braves. He will be making his home debut this season. Christian Javier has been a little shaky to start the season for the Astros with a 3.68 ERA through four starts allowing 9 earned runs and 3 homers in 22 innings. The Braves are 22-6 in Fried's 28 career home starts with a money line of +100 to -150. The Braves are 15-2 in Fried's 17 career Sunday starts. Atlanta is 21-4 after losing three of its last four games over the past two seasons. Bet the Braves Sunday. |

25* NBA 1st Round GAME OF THE YEAR on Los Angeles Lakers -4.5 After winning Game 1 128-112 on the road, the Lakers relaxed in Game 2, especially with the Grizzlies without JA Morant due to a wrist injury. They won't make the same mistake in Game 3, and I look for them to fire back with a blowout home victory in this one. Dillon Brooks called LeBron James old after the Game 2 win. You know LeBron won't take that lightly and will be fully locked in to make a statement, and his teammates will have his back. The Lakers' role players have played well in this series, and I expect them to play even better at home to support LeBron and AD. The Lakers are now 11-3 SU in their last 14 games overall coming up clutch just to try and get into the playoffs. They are showing how good they can be when healthy, which they are right now. The Grizzlies are missing up to three key players if Morant doesn't return. They aren't good enough to hang with the Lakers in this series given their current state, and especially not a 100% motivated Lakers team, which will be the case in Game 3 tonight. Memphis is 2-14 ATS as a road underdog this season, including 1-13 ATS as a road underdog of 6 points or less. Memphis is 1-9 ATS in road games vs. good shooting teams making 48% or better this season. The Grizzlies are just 16-25 SU on the road this season and have not played well at all away from home. The Lakers have won six of their last seven at home. Bet the Lakers in Game 3 Saturday. |

15* MLB Saturday Undervalued Underdog on Arizona Diamondbacks +141 The Arizona Diamondbacks are 12-9 this season and you'd be up $755 betting $100 on them every game. The San Diego Padres are 10-12 this season and you'd be down $570 betting $100 on them every game. Clearly the Padres are overvalued while the Diamondbacks are undervalued, and that continues to be the case here in Game 3 of this series. I'll gladly back Merrill Kelly as a home underdog. Kelly went 13-8 with a 3.37 ERA and 1.138 WHIP in 33 starts for the Diamondbacks last season. He has picked up where he left off, posting a 3.37 ERA through four starts this season while allowing just 8 earned runs and one homer in 21 1/3 innings. Joe Musgrove will be making his first start of the season for the Padres as he returns from injury and will be on a pitch count. While Musgrove has posted a 3.93 ERA in nine career starts against Arizona, Kelly has owned the Padres, going 8-2 with a 2.61 ERA in 13 career starts against them. Bet the Diamondbacks Saturday. |

I'll gladly side with the Rangers on the Run Line tonight. Andrew Heaney has been dominant in his last two starts pitching 10 innings with 14 K's without allowing a single earned run. He'll be opposed by Shintaro Fujinami, who is 0-3 with an 11.37 ERA and 1.659 WHIP in three starts this season while allowing 16 earned runs in 12 2/3 innings.

20* MLB Friday Late-Night BAILOUT on Cardinals/Mariners OVER 8 The books have set the bar too low in this game between the Seattle Mariners and St. Louis Cardinals. The Cardinals are hitting .273 and scoring 4.8 runs per game behind one of the better lineups in the National League. The Mariners are scoring 4.5 runs per game on the season and 4.8 runs per game against left-handed starters. The Mariners should tee off on Steven Matz, who is 0-2 with a 6.48 ERA and 1.800 WHIP in three starts this season for the Cardinals while allowing 12 earned runs, 3 homers and 30 base runners in 26 2/3 innings. George Kirby is 1-1 with a 5.07 ERA and 1.501 WHIP in two home starts this season, allowing 6 earned runs and 16 base runners in 10 2/3 innings. The OVER is 11-2 in Kirby's last 13 starts in the first half of the season. The OVER is 4-0-1 in Cardinals last five games overall. Bet the OVER in this game Friday. |

20* Nuggets/Timberwolves ESPN Late-Night BAILOUT on Minnesota +2.5 It's now or never for the Minnesota Timberwolves after falling down 0-2 in this series to the Denver Nuggets. I expect them to fire back in Game 3 here at home. The Timberwolves have played three of their last four playoff games on the road and were competitive in two of them, taking the Lakers to OT in the play-in game and the Nuggets to the wire in Game 2. But now the Timberwolves at back home where they were much more comfortable. In their lone playoff home game, the Timberwolves crushed the upstart Thunder 120-95 as 5.5-point favorites. I think they are getting disrespected here as home underdogs to the Nuggets and will make a statement. Denver is 3-11 ATS in its last 14 road games following two or more consecutive wins. Minnesota is 31-16 ATS in its last 47 games when revenging a road loss. Bet the Timberwolves in Game 3 Friday. |

The Rangers are 12-6 and scoring 6.2 runs per game while allowing 3.8 runs per game, outscoring opponents by 2.4 runs per game this season. I'll gladly take the Rangers on the Run Line today to win by two runs or more. Jon Gray is 1-1 with a 3.21 ERA and 1.214 WHIP in three starts this season while allowing only 5 earned runs in 14 innings. Gray fired 7 shutout innings in a 5-2 victory over the A's in his last start against them. JP Sears is 0-1 with a 4.59 ERA in three starts this season for the A's while allowing 8 earned runs and 5 homers in 15 2/3 innings. Sears allowed 5 earned runs in 4 innings in his last start against Texas. Bet the Rangers on the Run Line Friday. |

Temps will be in the 80's with 10 MPH winds blowing out to left at Camden Yards in Baltimore tonight. Combine that forecast with these two gas can starting pitchers, and we have a recipe for plenty of runs. Michael Lorenzen has a 4.16 ERA and 1.363 WHIP in 575 innings in the big leagues. Lorenzen will be making his second start of the season and his first was a disaster. He allowed 6 earned runs and 2 homers in 4 innings of a 7-6 win over the San Francisco Giants on April 15th. Tyler Wells is 0-1 with a 5.56 ERA in two starts for the Orioles this season, allowing 7 earned runs and 3 homers in 11 1/3 innings. Wells is 0-2 with a 10.29 ERA and 2.143 WHIP in two career starts against the Tigers, allowing 8 earned runs and 17 base runners in 7 innings. Lorenzen is 7-0 OVER in his last seven starts as an underdog of +125 to +175. The OVER is 20-7-2 in Tigers last 29 road games. The OVER is 4-1 in Orioles last five home games.

20* MLB TOTAL OF THE WEEK on White Sox/Rays OVER 8.5 The Tampa Bay Rays are scoring 7.0 runs per game overall and 7.8 runs per game at home this season. They are more than capable of covering this OVER on their own. But the White Sox are scoring 4.4 runs per game and will chip in to help cash this OVER for us against Tampa Bay opener Calvin Faucher and their bullpen. Michael Kopech has been a gas can and is actually lucky to have only a 6.32 ERA and 1.659 WHIP in three starts this season. He has already allowed 7 homers and 10 walks in 15 2/3 innings. And that has come against the Orioles, Pirates and Giants so this is a step up in class for him. The OVER is 5-1 in the last six meetings in Tampa Bay. The OVER is 11-5-2 in White Sox last 18 games overall. The OVER is 6-1 in Rays last seven home games. Bet the OVER in this game Friday. |

20* Suns/Clippers NBA TV Late-Night BAILOUT on Phoenix -2.5 The Phoenix Suns are by far the superior team over the Los Angeles Clippers. They have four stars in Durant, Booker, Ayton and Paul compared to one for the Clippers in Kawhi Leonard, who is having to shoulder too much of the load for them. They are relying on several guys past their primes including Eric Gordon and Russell Westbrook. Leonard had 31 points in Game 2 and the Clippers still lost by 14. I think we are getting the Suns very cheap here as only 2.5-point favorites in Game 3. Kevin Durant is 22-2 SU in his last 24 games dating back to Thanksgiving. The Suns are finally forming chemistry with him and will be a dangerous team moving forward. The Clippers are 1-8 ATS in home games off a road loss this season. Los Angeles is 4-15 ATS when revenging a loss by 10 points or more this season. The Suns are 5-1 ATS in their last six trips to Los Angeles. The Clippers only went 23-18 at home this season and don't have that big of a home-court advantage. Bet the Suns in Game 3 Thursday. |

They have won four consecutive games coming in and just swept the A's while outscoring them 24-3 in the process. I like their chances of making it five in a row against the Los Angeles Dodgers at home today. Michael Grove has been a gas can this season, going 0-1 with a 9.00 ERA and 1.615 WHIP in three starts for the Dodgers. He has allowed 13 earned runs and 21 base runners in 13 innings this season. Jameson Taillon is 0-2 with a 4.50 ERA and 1.357 WHIP in three starts for the Cubs this season. The Dodgers will be without Mookie Betts tonight as he is on paternity leave. Their lineup already wasn't as strong as last season, and it's a big blow missing Betts at the top of their lineup. The Dodgers are 2-8 in their last 10 games vs. a team with a winning record. Los Angeles is 9-10 on the season and you'd be down $758 betting $100 per game on them as they have consistently been overvalued. Bet the Cubs Thursday. |

There are expected to be 20 MPH winds blowing out to center at hitter-friendly Wrigley Field tonight in Chicago. Two starters off to rough starts this season go at it. Michael Grove has been a gas can this season, going 0-1 with a 9.00 ERA and 1.615 WHIP in three starts for the Dodgers. He has allowed 13 earned runs and 21 base runners in 13 innings this season. Jameson Taillon is 0-2 with a 4.50 ERA and 1.357 WHIP in three starts for the Cubs this season. I like the fact that these starters just faced these same lineups in their last starts, which will favor the hitters more than the pitchers. The Cubs are scoring 5.8 runs per game on the season. The Dodgers are scoring 5.2 runs per game on the season and 5.9 runs per game on the road. The OVER is 9-2 in Dodgers last 11 games following a loss.

04-19-23 | Heat v. Bucks UNDER 219.5 | Top | 122-138 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 33 m | Show |
20* NBA Wednesday Total DOMINATOR on Heat/Bucks UNDER 219.5 The Miami Heat lost their second-best player and the Milwaukee Bucks lost their best player to injury in Game 1 of this series. Tyler Herro (20.1 PPG) suffered a fracture hand and is likely to miss the rest of the playoffs. Giannis Antetokounmpo (31.1 PPG) suffered a back injury and is doubtful to play in Game 2. Without these two, I expect points to be much harder to come by for both teams. The total for Game 1 was 221 and now the total for Game 2 is 219.5, which isn't a big enough adjustment down for these two losses. Familiarity favors defense and low scoring games, and as a series progresses the scoring slows down almost in every series. The reason the total has stayed relatively high is because Game 1 was an offensive aberration that saw the Heat beat the Bucks 130-117 for 247 combined points. Miami shot 59.5% as a team including a ridiculous 15-of-25 (60%) from 3-point range. That's obviously not going to happen again. I think the defense is much better in Game 2, and the shooting much poorer while also being played at a slower pace. Bet the UNDER in this game Wednesday. |

The end result should be plenty of runs to get us up and OVER this 9-run total. Berrios went 12-7 with a 5.23 ERA and 1.419 WHIP in 32 starts last season, including 5-5 with a 6.36 ERA and 1.525 WHIP on the road as he has been much worse away from home in his career. Berrios is 1-2 with a 7.98 ERA and 1.500 WHIP in three starts this season, including 0-2 with an 11.17 ERA and 1.861 WHIP in two road starts. Luis Garcia is 0-2 with a 7.71 ERA and 1.857 WHIP in three starts this season while allowing 12 earned runs, 3 homers and 26 base runners in 14 innings. It's not going to go any better for him here against Toronto. The OVER is 14-4 in Berrios' last 18 road starts. The OVER is 8-0 in Berrios' last eight road starts vs. good teams that outscore their opponents by 0.5 or more runs per game on the season. The OVER is 8-3-1 in the last 12 meetings in Houston.

20* MLB Wednesday No-Doubt Rout on Minnesota Twins -124 The Minnesota Twins come back highly motivated after three consecutive losses including blowing a one-run lead in the 8th and a two-run lead in the 10th to the Red Sox yesterday. The Red Sox will be playing for a 12th consecutive day, are tired and their bullpen is taxed. The Twins have a big advantage on the mound tonight behind one of the most underrated starters in baseball in Joe Ryan. He is 3-0 with a 2.84 ERA and 0.632 WHIP in three starts this season while allowing 6 earned runs and 12 base runners in 19 innings with 26 K's. He has struck out 10 in consecutive starts against the Astros and Yankees. Corey Kluber is far past his prime and doesn't go deep into starts, which means the Twins will get into this taxed Boston bullpen early. Kluber is 0-3 with a 6.92 ERA and 1.462 WHIP in three starts this season while allowing 10 earned runs and 4 homers in 13 innings. The Red Sox are 1-10 in their last 11 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. Bet the Twins Wednesday. |

Temps will be in the 70's with whopping 20-30 MPH winds blowing out to left-center at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City. The wind was blowing out yesterday and the Rangers cover the total on their own in a 12-2 victory. It could easily be more of the same here against Brady Singer, who is 1-1 with a 7.87 ERA in three starts this season while allowing 14 earned runs and 5 homers in 16 innings. Singer is 0-2 with a 7.56 ERA and 1.801 WHIP in two career starts against the Rangers as well. Martin Perez has big home/road splits and is much better at home than he has been on the road over the past couple seasons. Perez allowed 4 earned runs and 9 base runners in 6 innings of a 10-4 victory at Kansas City in his lone road start against the Royals last season. The OVER is 12-3 in Perez's last 15 day game starts. The OVER is 14-2 in Royals last 16 home games after scoring two runs or fewer in two consecutive games.

20* Clippers/Suns TNT Late-Night BAILOUT on Phoenix -7.5 That was a rare loss for Kevin Durant in Game 1. Durant is 21-2 in his last 23 games dating back to Thanksgiving. I fully expect the Suns to bounce back with a blowout victory in Game 2 after getting upset by the Clippers in Game 1 of this series. A lot of times in the playoffs you see a team pull off the upset on the road in Game 1 and then let down in Game 2. The home team comes back more motivated and wins in a blowout to tie the series. I believe that's what we see here as the Suns are clearly the better team in this series. The Suns only made six 3-pointers in Game 1. You can expect them to make double-digits from 3 in Game 2 which will be a big difference in the result. The Clippers remain without Paul George and I think that puts too much of a burden on Kawhi Leonard. The Suns were dominant with Durant prior to that Game 1 loss. Plays on any team (Phoenix) - revenging a loss as a home favorite of 7 points or more, off an upset loss as a home favorite are 43-12 (78.2%) ATS over the last five seasons. Plays against road underdogs of 3.5 to 9.5 points (LA Clippers) - in the 2nd game of a playoff series are 24-5 (82.8%) ATS over the last five seasons. Bet the Suns in Game 2 Tuesday. |

Colorado's last seven home games have all seen 11 or more combined runs and five have seen 13 or more combined runs. That includes their 17-run outburst with the Rockies yesterday.

The Blue Jays are scoring 4.8 runs per game overall and 5.1 runs per game on the road. The Astros are scoring 5.1 runs per game overall and 5.2 runs per game against right-handed starters. The Astros won 9-2 yesterday and should have another big day at the plate against Chris Bassitt, who is 1-2 with a 7.63 ERA and 1.566 WHIP in three starts this season while allowing 13 earned runs and 5 homers in 15 1/3 innings. Bassitt is 0-1 with a 7.90 ERA in his last three starts against Houston, allowing 12 earned runs and 4 homers in 13 2/3 innings. Jose Urquidy is 1-0 with a 2.35 ERA and 1.370 WHIP in three starts this season allowing 4 earned runs, 2 homers and 21 base runners in 15 1/3 innings. He has been fortunate not to allow more runs and his luck runs out tonight.

Temps will be approaching 80 with 15 MPH winds blowing out to left at Kauffman Stadium. This is a pitching rematch from less than a week ago when the Royals beat the Rangers 10-1 for 11 combined runs. Nathan Eovaldi allowed 6 earned runs and 10 hits in 5 innings to take the loss. He is now 1-2 with a 6.32 ERA and 1.532 WHIP in three starts this season. Eovaldi has allowed 10 earned runs and 3 homers in 11 innings in his last two starts against the Royals. Brad Keller is off to a good start this season. But that was a rare good start for him against the Rangers in his last outing. Keller is 1-2 with a 6.53 ERA and 1.645 WHIP in four career starts against Texas. The OVER is 7-2 in Rangers last nine games overall. The OVER is 5-0 in Rangers last five games when their opponent scored 2 runs or fewer in their previous game. The OVER is 14-2 in Royals last 16 games vs. a team with a winning record. Bet the OVER in this game Tuesday. |

04-18-23 | Knicks v. Cavs -5 | Top | 90-107 | Win | 100 | 31 h 19 m | Show |
20* Knicks/Cavs TNT No-Brainer on Cleveland -5 The Cleveland Cavaliers got dominated on the boards in Game 1 which was their demise. They lost the rebounding battle 51-38 and gave up 17 offensive rebounds. The Cavaliers are a great rebounding team on the season, so don't expect that to happen again. I expect the Cavaliers to bounce back with a blowout home victory in Game 2 tonight. A lot of times in the playoffs you see a team pull off the upset on the road in Game 1 and then let down in Game 2. The home team comes back the more motivated team and wins in a blowout to tie the series. I believe that's what we see here as the Cavaliers are clearly the better team in this series. Cleveland is 8-1 ATS in home games after failing to cover the spread in four or five of their last six games this season. Plays against road underdogs of 3.5 to 9.5 points (New York) - in the 2nd game of a playoff series are 24-5 (82.8%) ATS over the last five season. Plays on favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points (Cleveland) - off two or more consecutive home losses in April games are 43-17 (71.7%) ATS since 1996. Bet the Cavaliers in Game 2 Tuesday. |

15* MLB Tuesday Night BLOWOUT on Minnesota Twins -101 The Boston Red Sox are a tired team as they will be playing for an 11th consecutive day. Their bullpen is taxed after four straight games decided by 2 runs or fewer. The Twins had yesterday off and will not only be the fresher team, but they also have a massive advantage on the mound in this one. Sonny Gray is 2-0 with a 0.53 ERA and 1.000 WHIP in three starts this season while allowing just one earned runs in 17 innings with 19 K's. He'll be opposed by Chris Sale, who is 1-1 with an 11.25 ERA and 2.083 WHIP in three starts while allowing 15 earned runs, 5 homers and 25 base runners in 12 innings. The Twins will get into Boston's taxed bullpen early in this one. The Twins are 5-0 in their last five games following an off day. The Red Sox are 1-10 in their last 11 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. Bet the Twins Tuesday. |

Temps will be in the 50's with 15-20 MPH winds blowing out to center at hitter-friendly Yankee Stadium. Two gas cans are on the mound for their respective teams tonight. Jose Suarez is 0-1 with a 10.80 ERA and 2.281 WHIP in two starts for the Angels this season while allowing 10 earned runs and 19 base runners in 8 1/3 innings. Clarke Schmidt is 0-0 with an 8.44 ERA and 1.970 WHIP in three starts for the Yankees this season while allowing 10 earned runs, 3 homers and 21 base runners in 10 2/3 innings. Bet the OVER in this game Tuesday. |

04-17-23 | Diamondbacks +143 v. Cardinals | 6-3 | Win | 143 | 7 h 40 m | Show | |
15* MLB Monday Undervalued Underdog on Arizona Diamondbacks +143 Having one of the best farm systems in baseball for the past couple years is finally starting to pay off for the Diamondbacks this season. They have gone 9-7 this season and you'd be up $574 betting $100 per game on them. Conversely, the Cardinals are 7-9 this season and you'd be down $509 betting $100 per game on them. The Diamondbacks have an underrated rotation especially at the top with Zac Gallen and Merrill Kelly. Kelly went 13-8 with a 3.37 ERA and 1.138 WHIP in 33 starts last season. He has posted a 2.93 ERA in three starts this season while allowing only 5 earned runs in 15 1/3 innings. Kelly has a 2.08 ERA in his last two starts against the Cardinals while allowing only 3 earned runs in 13 innings, and both starts came last season. Jack Flaherty continues making his way back from injury and is far from his old self. He has control issues with 14 walks in 15 1/3 innings this season. He'll be up against an Arizona lineup that is hitting .282 and scoring 5.6 runs per game against right-handed starters this season. The Cardinals are only scoring 3.9 runs per game against right-handed starters to compare. The Diamondbacks are 8-2 in their last 10 games vs. right-handed starters, including 5-0 in their last five road games vs. right-handed starters. The Cardinals are 0-6 in their last six during Game 1 of a series. Their bullpen is taxed after going to extra innings in both games over the weekend with the Pirates. Bet the Diamondbacks Monday. |

15* Nets/76ers TNT ANNIHILATOR on Brooklyn +10.5 The Philadelphia 76ers made 21 3-pointers and had a 19-8 advantage in turnovers in Game 1 over the Brooklyn Nets to win by 20. A lot went right for them in that game, and I don't expect it to be nearly as easy for them in Game 2. I expect the Nets to take this game to the wire tonight. The Nets are 144-97 ATS in their last 241 road games when revenging a loss. Brooklyn is 14-6 ATS when revenging a road loss this season. The Nets are 12-3 ATS in their last 15 games after a blowout loss by 15 points or more. Bet the Nets in Game 2 Monday. |

20* Interleague TOTAL OF THE MONTH on Rays/Reds OVER 9 The forecast is going to help us cash this OVER ticket between the Rays and Reds tonight. There are expected to be 20-plus MPH winds blowing out to center at hitter-friendly Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati. The Rays are hitting .280 and scoring 7.1 runs per game as a team. The Reds are hitting .253 and scoring 4.9 runs per game as a team, including .270 and 5.6 runs per game at home. They are hitting .289 and scoring 6.8 runs per game against left-handed starters as well. The Rays are vulnerable on the mound tonight going with an opener in Jalen Beeks who will pitch one inning before giving way to the bullpen. Hunter Greene gets a lot of hype for the Reds due to his K potential, but he is 0-0 with a 5.14 ERA and 1.643 WHIP in three starts this season while allowing 8 earned runs and 23 base runners in 14 innings. He will get worked early in this game and the Rays will get into Cincinnati's weak bullpen early. The Reds' bullpen has a 4.47 ERA and 1.423 WHIP on the season. Tampa Bay is 7-0 OVER vs. a team with a losing record this season and we're seeing 12.1 combined runs per game in this spot. The OVER is 9-2-1 in Rays' last 12 games overall with 9 or more combined runs in 10 of those 12 games. The OVER is 7-1 in Reds' last eight games overall with 9 or more combined runs in seven of those eight games. Bet the OVER in this game Monday. |

04-16-23 | Clippers v. Suns -7.5 | Top | 115-110 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 16 m | Show |
20* Clippers/Suns TNT No-Brainer on Phoenix -7.5 The Phoenix Suns showed what they were capable of down the stretch when fully healthy and trying to clinch a spot in the playoffs. They went 7-0 SU & 5-2 ATS for a stretch with four wins by double-digits. Kevin Durant is now 21-1 SU in his last 22 games played. This would have been a great series if Paul George was healthy. Instead, there's too much on Kawhi Leonard's shoulders now, and while he is a great player he isn't good enough to beat the Suns on his own. He is going to be trusting too much in Russell Westbrook and Eric Gordon, two veterans on the downside of their careers. Westbrook has been a cancer everywhere he has gone. I think Durant is the better player than Leonard, plus Booker and Ayton are both better than anything the Clippers have. They won't be able to match up with Booker on the perimeter or Ayton inside as the Clippers are very weak in the paint with Zubac handling most the minutes. The Clippers are 1-6 ATS in their last seven games following a win. The Suns are 5-1-1 ATS in their last seven games when playing on three or more days' rest. The Suns are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. This rest is exactly what the doctor ordered for the Suns as they are now ready to make their playoff run as likely the best team in the West as currently constructed. Bet the Suns in Game 1 Sunday. |

15* AL PLAY OF THE DAY on Orioles/White Sox OVER 7.5 The forecast is going to help us cash this OVER ticket, which is why I'm willing to bet an OVER in game involving Chicago ace Dylan Cease. There are expected to be 25 MPH winds blowing out to left at Guaranteed Rate Field today. The White Sox and Orioles have combined for 13 and 9 runs in the first two games of this series, and it should be more of the same due to the forecast today. The Orioles have a taxed bullpen that hasn't been very good due to playing their 10th consecutive day today. The White Sox have the worst bullpen in baseball with a 7.32 ERA and 1.955 WHIP in 51 2/3 innings, allowing 42 earned runs. Grayson Rodriquez hasn't made it past the 5th inning in any of his two starts this season with a 6.75 ERA allowing 7 earned runs in 9 1/3 innings for the Orioles. Baltimore is scoring 5.7 runs per game overall while Chicago is scoring 4.7 runs per game overall, including 5.2 runs per game at home. The OVER is 15-4 in Cease's last 19 starts as a home favorite of -125 to -175. The OVER is 4-0-1 in Orioles last five games overall with combined scores of 9 runs or more in all five and 12 runs or more in four of the five. The OVER is 6-0-1 in White Sox last seven home games. Bet the OVER in this game Sunday. |

15* NL PLAY OF THE DAY on Pirates/Cardinals OVER 8.5 The forecast is going to help us cash this OVER ticket between the Pirates and Cardinals today. There are expected to be 20 MPH winds blowing out to center at Busch Stadium. These two starters aren't very good, so these teams should easily combine for 9-plus runs in this one. Miles Mikolas has been a total disaster for the Cardinals. He is 0-1 with a 10.05 ERA and 2.233 WHIP in three starts this season while allowing 16 earned runs, 4 homers and 32 base runners in 14 1/3 innings. Mitch Keller has been decent at 1-0 with a 3.57 ERA and 1.358 WHIP in three starts, but he will get lit up today alongside Mikolas. Pittsburgh is 16-4 OVER in its last 20 games after allowing 3 runs or less in two consecutive games. The Pirates are 12-2 OVER in their last 14 games after allowing 4 runs or fewer in three consecutive games. Bet the OVER in this game Sunday. |

04-16-23 | Angels v. Red Sox OVER 9 | 1-2 | Loss | -120 | 3 h 28 m | Show | |
15* MLB TOTAL OF THE DAY on Angels/Red Sox OVER 9 The Angels and Red Sox are pretty much mirror images of one another. They have potent lineups, terrible starting rotations and terrible bullpens. That makes both dead nuts OVER teams, and I'll gladly back the OVER 9 runs here at hitter-friendly Fenway Park after these teams just combined for 16 runs yesterday. Reid Detmers is 0-0 with a 5.58 ERA and 1.448 WHIP in two starts for the Angels this season while allowing 6 earned runs and 14 base runners in 9 2/3 innings. He'll be opposed by Garrett Whitlock, who is 0-1 with a 9.00 ERA and 1.600 WHIP in one start while allowing 5 earned runs and 3 homers in 5 innings to the Rays. Whitlock is 0-0 with a 6.00 ERA in two career starts against the Angels, both of which came last season. The OVER is 4-1 in Red Sox last five games overall with combined scores of 9 runs or more in four of the five, and 8 runs in the other. The Red Sox are scoring 5.7 runs per game overall and 6.1 runs per game at home. The Angels are scoring 5.4 runs per game overall. Bet the OVER in this game Sunday. |

20* MLB Sunday No-Doubt Rout on Cleveland Guardians -1.5 (-140) Patrick Corbin has been the worst starter in baseball over the past three seasons. He went 9-16 with a 5.82 ERA and 1.468 WHIP in 31 starts in 2021 and 6-19 with a 6.31 ERA and 1.697 WHIP in 31 starts in 2022. He hasn't been any better thus far in 2023, going 1-2 with a 7.71 ERA and 2.143 WHIP in three starts this season while allowing 12 earned runs, 3 homers and 30 base runners in 14 innings. I'll gladly back the Guardians to win this game by two runs or more with ace Shane Bieber on the mound. Bieber is 55-26 with a 3.15 ERA and 1.93 WHIP in his career over 722 innings. He is one of the best starters in baseball. Bieber is 1-0 with a 2.37 ERA and 0.947 WHIP in three starts this season while allowing just 5 earned runs, zero homers and 18 base runners in 19 innings. The Nationals are 5-25 in Corbin's last 30 starts as an underdog and losing by 3.7 runs per game in this spot. Cleveland is 9-0 in his last nine road games vs. a NL team with a .390 slugging percentage or worse and winning by 2.9 runs per game in this spot. Bet the Guardians on the Run Line Sunday. |

15* Cubs/Dodgers NL Late-Night BAILOUT on OVER 9 The forecast is going to help us cash this OVER ticket tonight between the Cubs and Dodgers. Temperatures will be in the 60's with 10 MPH winds blowing out to center at Dodger Stadium. With these two gas cans on the mound, it's not like we need the help. Michael Grove is 0-1 with a 14.73 ERA and 2.319 WHIP in two starts this season while allowing 12 earned runs and 17 base runners in 7 1/3 innings. Jameson Taillon is 0-2 with a 7.00 ERA and 1.667 WHIP in two starts this season, allowing 7 earned runs and 15 base runners in 9 innings. Taillon is 0-1 with a 7.71 ERA and 2.000 WHIP in three career starts against the Dodgers as well. The Cubs are scoring 5.7 runs per game overall, including 8.7 runs per game at home. The Dodgers are scoring 5.8 runs per game overall, including 6.6 runs per game against right-handed starters. Los Angeles has a 5.48 bullpen ERA while Chicago has a 4.27 bullpen ERA. The OVER is 16-4 in Dodgers last 20 games after allowing 8 runs or more. The OVER is 8-0 in Dodgers last eight games following a loss.

20* Warriors/Kings ABC Late-Night BAILOUT on Sacramento PK The Sacramento Kings will be making their first playoff appearance since 2006. It's safe to say it's going to be a tremendous atmosphere for Game 1 of this series with fans ready to let out years of frustration in support of this team. Mike Brown is the coach of the year leading the Kings to a 48-34 record this season and the 3rd seed in the West. They have stayed remarkably healthy all season and are one of the deepest teams in the NBA. I think they have a huge advantage over the Warriors when the backups are in as the Warriors lack the depth of years' past when they made NBA Finals runs. Most just expect the Warriors to flip on the switch, but it's not that easy. Andrew Wiggins returns but is going to be rusty after missing the past 25 games. And the Warriors have been one of the worst road teams in the NBA all season, going 11-30 SU & 13-28 ATS on the highway. Sacramento is 12-1 ATS after failing to cover the spread in two or more consecutive games this season. Golden State is 16-34-1 ATS in its last 51 road games. The Kings are 13-5 ATS in the last 18 meetings. Bet the Kings Saturday. |

Graham Ashcraft and Matt Strahm are both below-average starters in this league despite both getting off to decent starts this season, which is keeping this total lower than it should be. Both the Phillies and Reds are getting healthier at the plate too and have two very good lineups. The OVER is 5-1 in Reds last six games overall with 9 or more combined runs in five of those six games. The OVER is 4-2 in Phillies last six games overall with 10 or more combined runs in four of those six games. Bet the OVER in this game Saturday. |

20* NL TOTAL OF THE WEEK on Diamondbacks/Marlins UNDER 9 LoanDepot Park in Miami is one of the most pitcher-friendly parks in baseball. There will be 11 MPH winds blowing in from center to boot today to help us cash this UNDER 9 ticket. I like both young starters going today in Ryne Nelson and Braxton Garrett. Nelson has posted a 2.76 ERA and 1.023 WHIP in 29 1/3 innings in the big leagues. Garrett has posted a 4.13 ERA in 137 1/3 innings in the big leagues. The Diamondbacks are scoring just 2.9 runs per game on the road this season and 2.8 runs per game vs. left-handed starters. The Marlins are scoring just 3.3 runs per game on the season and 2.5 runs per game at home. The UNDER is 7-0 in Garrett's last seven starts when working on 5 or 6 days' rest.

Temperatures will be in the 60's with 10 MPH winds blowing out to right-center at RingCentral Coliseum in Oakland. With these two gas cans on the mound, it's not like we need the help. Shuntaro Fujinami has been the worst starter in baseball thus far, going 0-2 with a 17.57 ERA and 2.252 WHIP in two starts while allowing 13 earned runs in 6 2/3 innings. The A's have a taxed bullpen as they will be playing for a 9th consecutive day after allowing 17, 8, 4, 12, 5, 11, 11 and 9 runs in their last eight games, respectively. Carlos Carrasco is 0-2 with an 11.42 ERA and 1.961 WHIP in two starts this season while allowing 11 earned runs and 3 homers in 8 2/3 innings. The Mets are missing their closer and don't have a great bullpen right now, either. The OVER is 9-1-1 in A's last 11 games overall with combined scores of 10 runs or more in nine of those 11 games.

15* Hawks/Celtics ESPN ANNIHILATOR on Atlanta +9.5 The Atlanta Hawks have come up clutch here down the stretch with these games mattering most. They have gone 4-1 SU in games in which they were actually trying and not resting starters, including their dominant 116-105 win at Miami as 5.5-point underdogs in the Play-In to punch their ticket into the playoffs. The Hawks are brimming with confidence now and ready to give the Celtics a run for their money in Game 1 of this series today. The Celtics are getting a lot of love after making the NBA Finals last year. But they kind of snuck up on everyone in the playoffs last year, and now they are the hunted instead of the hunters. Asking them to win by double-digits in Game 1 to beat us is asking too much. The Hawks are actually more battle-tested and ready after playing a meaningful game earlier this week. Boston hasn't played a meaningful game since April 4th and could be rusty to open this series as a result. Bet the Hawks Saturday. |

Roansy Contreras is 1-1 with an 8.00 ERA and 1.889 WHIP in two starts this season while allowing 8 earned runs and 17 base runners in 9 innings.

15* MLB Friday Undervalued Underdog on Chicago Cubs +148 The Los Angeles Dodgers are one of the most overrated teams in baseball this season. They are 7-6 but you'd be down $320 betting $100 per game on them thus far. They are once again too heavily favored over the Cubs tonight, and they shouldn't be favored at all considering the big advantage the Cubs have on the mound. Justin Steele has posted a 3.35 ERA in 188 innings with 196 K's in his career in the majors. Steele is 1-0 with a 0.75 ERA and 1.000 WHP in two starts this season while allowing just one earned run in 12 innings. He'll be backed but a Cubs lineup that is scoring 5.5 runs per game overall including 9.0 runs per game on the road this season. Noah Syndergaard went 10-10 with a 3.94 ERA last season between the Angels and Phillies. He is off to a rough start this season for the Dodgers, going 0-1 with a 6.30 ERA in two starts while allowing 7 earned runs and 2 homers in 10 innings. Both starts came against the Diamondbacks. He is 2-2 with a 4.96 ERA and 1.592 WHIP in six career starts against the Cubs. Bet the Cubs Friday. |

20* Thunder/Timberwolves ESPN No-Brainer on Oklahoma City +5.5 The Oklahoma City Thunder are brimming with confidence after upsetting the Pelicans 123-118 on the road last game. The Minnesota Timberwolves are questioning themselves after blowing a double-digit lead and scoring just 16 points in the final 16 minutes in an OT loss to the Lakers. The Timberwolves are also dealing with the Rudy Gobert distractions and some significant injuries heading into this one. I think 5.5 points is too many for them to be laying against this up-and-coming Thunder team that has been consistently undervalued for two straight seasons and one that just has a knack for playing in close games. The Thunder are 11-1 ATS when revenging a close loss by 3 points or less over the last two seasons. The Timberwolves are 2-7 ATS in their last nine home games. Oklahoma City is 6-1 ATS in its last seven trips to Minnesota. Bet the Thunder Friday. |

Temperatures will be in the 70's tonight at Kauffman Stadium with 14 MPH winds blowing out to left. Charlie Morton got off to a terrible start last season and history is repeating itself this season. Morton is 1-1 with a 4.36 ERA and 1.936 WHIP in two starts this season while allowing 5 earned runs and 22 base runners in 10 1/3 innings. Morton is 1-2 with a 4.44 ERA in four career starts against the Royals. Brady Singer is 1-0 with a 4.91 ERA in two starts for the Royals this season while allowing 6 earned runs in 11 innings. He faces one of the best lineups in baseball in the Braves who are scoring 4.8 runs per game on the season including 5.3 runs per game on the road. The Royals just hung 10 runs on the Rangers last game and come into this series with some confidence at the plate. The Braves are 15-3 OVER in interleague games over the last two seasons. Morton is 9-1 OVER in his last 10 road starts as a favorite of -150 or less. The OVER is 15-4 in Morton's last 19 night starts. The OVER is 11-2 in Singer's last 13 starts as a dog of +100 to +150.

The Los Angeles Angels will be fresh after having yesterday off with a rested bullpen. The Angels have a big advantage on the mound over the Red Sox tonight as well. Patrick Sandoval is 1-0 with a 1.64 ERA and 1.000 WHIP in two starts this season while allowing only 2 earned runs in 11 innings. He'll be opposed by Tanner Houck, who is 2-0 with a 4.50 ERA while allowing 5 earned runs and 2 homers in 10 innings to the Orioles and Tigers. This is a step up in class facing this potent Los Angeles lineup. The Angels are 10-3 in their last 13 games vs. a right-handed starter. The Red Sox are 0-5 in their last five games vs. a team with a winning record. Boston is 18-39 in its last 57 games following a loss. Bet the Angels Friday. |

20* MLB Friday No-Doubt Rout on Tampa Bay Rays -119 The Tampa Bay Rays are 13-0 this season with 11 wins by 4 runs or more and 12 wins by 2 runs or more. They are scoring 7.8 runs per game with an underrated offense, and allowing 2.3 runs per game with one of the best pitching staffs in baseball. They have hit more home runs (32) than runs allowed (30) on the season. The Rays will be motivated to break the modern day record of 13 straight wins to start a season with their 14th victory Friday in Game 1 of this series at Toronto. The Rays have a big advantage on the mound tonight. Drew Rasmussen is 2-0 with a 0.00 ERA and 0.231 WHIP in two starts this season while pitching 13 shutout innings and allowing only 3 base runners with 15 K's. Rasmussen has posted a 2.45 ERA and 1.064 WHIP in seven career starts against Toronto. Jose Berrios went 12-7 with a 5.23 ERA and 1.419 WHIP in 32 starts for the Blue Jays last season. He is off to a terrible start this season, going 0-2 with an 11.17 ERA and 1.861 WHIP in two starts while allowing 12 earned runs and 18 base runners in 9 2/3 innings. Berrios is 1-4 with a 5.86 ERA in eight career starts against the Rays. He allowed 6 earned runs in 2 innings of a 10-5 loss to Tampa Bay in his last start against them. Bet the Rays Friday. |

15* AL TOTAL OF THE DAY on Rays/Blue Jays OVER 9 The Tampa Bay Rays are 13-0 this season and scoring 7.8 runs per game. They are more than capable of covering this 9-run total on their own inside the hitter-friendly confines of Rogers Center. Drew Rasmussen is a stud, but the Blue Jays will score enough runs to help push this one OVER the total. Jose Berrios went 12-7 with a 5.23 ERA and 1.419 WHIP in 32 starts for the Blue Jays last season. He is off to a terrible start this season, going 0-2 with an 11.17 ERA and 1.861 WHIP in two starts while allowing 12 earned runs and 18 base runners in 9 2/3 innings. Berrios is 1-4 with a 5.86 ERA in eight career starts against the Rays. He allowed 6 earned runs in 2 innings of a 10-5 loss to Tampa Bay in his last start against them. The OVER is 8-1-1 in Rays last 10 games overall. The OVER is 4-1 in the last five meetings. The OVER is 13-3 in Berrios' last 16 starts during the first half of the season. Bet the OVER in this game Friday. |

20* Bulls/Heat TNT No-Brainer on Chicago +5.5 The Chicago Bulls come into this game with a ton of confidence after coming back from 19 points down to beat the Raptors last game. I think they are once again catching too many points against the Miami Heat tonight after the Heat are questioning themselves after getting upset 105-116 at home by the Hawks in a game they were never really in. Adding to the Bulls' confidence is the fact that they are 3-0 SU & 3-0 ATS in their three meetings with the Heat this season with three outright upset victories as underdogs. It should be more of the same here as I expect them to win this game outright, but we'll take the points for some insurance. The Heat are 1-8 ATS in their last nine games following a loss by more than 10 points. Chicago is 14-5 ATS off an upset win as an underdog this season. Miami is 9-22 ATS as a favorite of 3.5 to 9.5 points this season. Bet the Bulls Friday. |

20* MLB Thursday No-Doubt Rout on Tampa Bay Rays -1.5 (-104) The Tampa Bay Rays are 12-0 this season with 10 wins by 4 runs or more and 11 wins by 2 runs or more. They are scoring 7.7 runs per game with an underrated offense, and allowing 2.2 runs per game with one of the best pitching staffs in baseball. They have hit more home runs (30) than runs allowed (27) on the season. The Rays improve to 13-0 this season when they host the Boston Red Sox for Game 4 of this series this afternoon. Tampa Bay has a big advantage on the mound today with Jeffrey Springs over Corey Kluber. Springs went 9-5 with a 2.46 ERA and 1.071 WHIP in 135 1/3 innings last season. He is 2-0 with a 0.00 ERA and 0.538 WHIP in two starts this season, pitching 13 shutout innings while allowing only 7 base runners with 19 K's to boot. Corey Kluber went 10-10 with a 4.34 ERA in 31 starts for the Rays last season, so they are very familiar with his stuff. Kluber is 0-2 with a 6.48 ERA and 1.681 WHIP in two starts this season, allowing 6 earned runs, 3 homers and 14 base runners in 8 1/3 innings. He has allowed 7 earned runs and 13 base runners in 4 innings in his last two starts against the Rays. Bet the Rays on the Run Line Thursday. |

04-12-23 | Bulls v. Raptors UNDER 213.5 | Top | 109-105 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 18 m | Show |
20* Bulls/Raptors ESPN No-Brainer on UNDER 213.5 Playoff intensity defense is a different animal. Teams go all regular season without playing much defense especially this season. But it will be different in the playoffs, and I think we get some inflated totals early on we can take advantage of by backing UNDERS. This is one of those totals. The Raptors rank 25th in pace while the Bulls rank 18th, so this game will be played in the half court. The Bulls have been improved defensively since getting Patrick Beverly and rank 3rd in defensive rating over the past 15 games. The Raptors rank 5th in defensive rating over their past 15 games. This has been a low scoring series as the UNDER is 4-0 in the last four meetings with combined scores of 202, 208, 217 and 212 points, respectively. As you can see, these teams have combined to go UNDER this 213.5-point total in three of their last four meetings, and those were regular season meetings. I'll be surprised if these teams come close to topping this 213.5-point total while playing with playoff-intensity defense. Bet the UNDER in this game Wednesday. |

04-12-23 | Red Sox v. Rays -125 | Top | 7-9 | Win | 100 | 8 h 8 m | Show |
20* MLB Wednesday No-Doubt Rout on Tampa Bay Rays -125 The Tampa Bay Rays are 11-0 this season with 10 wins by 4 runs or more. They are scoring 7.5 runs per game with an underrated offense, and allowing 1.8 runs per game with one of the best pitching staffs in baseball. They have hit more home runs (29) than runs allowed (20) on the season. The Rays improve to 12-0 this season when they host the Boston Red Sox for Game 3 of this series tonight. The only reason the Rays are a short favorite today is because they are going with an opener in Taj Bradley. But that's not a problem as they have the deepest bullpen in the majors which is why they have no problem deploying an opener. I'll gladly fade Chris Sale, who is a shell of his former self due to injury. Sale has posted an 11.25 ERA and 2.000 WHIP in two starts this season while allowing 10 earned runs and 4 homers in 8 innings. Sale has allowed 10 runs, 6 earned and 20 base runners in 9 2/3 innings in his last three starts against the Rays. Sale is 1-10 (-12.7 Units) against the money line vs. a AL team with a slugging percentage of .440 or better in his career. Tampa Bay is the gift that keeps on giving. Bet the Rays Wednesday. |

20* Mariners/Cubs Interleague Early ANNIHILATOR on OVER 11 The wind was blowing out yesterday at Wrigley and the Mariners and Cubs combined for 23 runs. It will be more of the same today with a similar forecast calling for temperatures in the 70's with over 20 MPH winds blowing out to center. Marcus Stroman is off to a great start this season which is keeping this total lower than it should be. Logan Gilbert also tends to get some respect from the books. Both are quality starters, but neither stands a chance of keeping the ball in the park with the forecast. The OVER is 14-3 in Gilbert's last 17 road starts following a team loss. The OVER is 22-7-1 in Mariners last 30 interleague road games. Bet the OVER in this game Wednesday. |

20* Timberwolves/Lakers TNT No-Brainer on UNDER 232.5 Playoff intensity defense is a different animal. Teams go all regular season without playing much defense especially this season. But it will be different in the playoffs, and I think we get some inflated totals early on we can take advantage of by backing UNDERS. This is one of those totals. The Lakers were one of the best defensive teams in the NBA after the All-Star Break. The Timberwolves were great defensively down the stretch to try and get into the playoffs, allowing 108 or fewer points in five of their last eight games overall. This has been an UNDER series. The UNDER is 6-1 in the last seven meetings with combined scores of 228 or fewer points in six of those seven meetings, including 213 or fewer in five of the seven. This 232.5-point total has been set too high based on series history, plus when you factor in this game will be played with playoff-intensity defense. Bet the UNDER in this game Tuesday. |

20* NL TOTAL OF THE WEEK on Dodgers/Giants OVER 8 The forecast will help us cash this OVER ticket between the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants tonight. Temperatures will be in the 50's with whopping 25 MPH winds blowing out to center at Oracle Park tonight. Dustin May and Alex Wood aren't good enough to keep this total from flying over. Wood allowed 6 earned runs in 5 1/3 innings in his last start against the Dodgers. May has faced the Diamondbacks twice this season and he is not as good as his numbers suggest. The OVER is 3-0-1 in Dodgers last four games overall with combined scores of 9, 20, 17 and 10 runs. The OVER is 5-2 in Giants last seven games overall with combined scores of 10 runs or more five times. Bet the OVER in this game Tuesday. |

15* MLB Tuesday Total DOMINATOR on White Sox/Twins OVER 7.5 The forecast is going to help us cash this OVER ticket tonight. Temperatures will be in the 80's with 14 MPH winds blowing out to left at Target Field in Minnesota tonight. These are two very good offenses who will easily combine to top this 7.5-run total given the forecast. The Twins are capable of covering this OVER on their own. Lance Lynn is 0-1 with a 9.00 ERA and 1.900 WHIP in two starts this season allowing 10 earned runs and 4 homers in 10 innings. Lynn is 0-2 with a 9.00 ERA in his last three starts against the Twins, allowing 15 earned runs and 5 homers in 15 innings. All three starts came last season as well. The OVER is 8-1-1 in White Sox last nine games overall with combined scores of 9 runs or more in eight of those 10 games. Bet the OVER in this game Tuesday. |

04-11-23 | White Sox v. Twins -147 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 11 h 49 m | Show | |
15* MLB Tuesday Night BLOWOUT on Minnesota Twins -147 I expect the Minnesota Twins to bounce back from their Game 1 loss to the White Sox tonight. They have a big advantage on the mound and lost to Chicago ace Dylan Cease last night. Now they take a big step down in class of opposing starting pitcher as Cease is the only reliable starter the White Sox have. Lance Lynn is 0-1 with a 9.00 ERA and 1.900 WHIP in two starts this season allowing 10 earned runs and 4 homers in 10 innings. Lynn is 0-2 with a 9.00 ERA in his last three starts against the Twins, allowing 15 earned runs and 5 homers in 15 innings. All three starts came last season as well. Pablo Lopez was a great get for the Twins in the offseason as he was part of the Marlins' underrated rotation. Lopez went 10-10 with a 3.75 ERA and 1.167 WHIP in 32 starts last season. He is 1-0 with a 0.73 ERA and 0.730 WHIP in two starts this season, allowing just one earned runs and 9 base runners in 12 1/3 innings with 16 K's. The White Sox are 0-5 in their last five games following a win. Bet the Twins Tuesday. |

20* MLB Tuesday No-Doubt Rout on Tampa Bay Rays -165 The Tampa Bay Rays are 10-0 this season with nine wins by 4 runs or more. They are scoring 7.6 runs per game with an underrated offense, and allowing 1.8 runs per game with one of the best pitching staffs in baseball. The Rays improve to 11-0 this season when they host the Boston Red Sox for Game 2 of this series tonight. Shane McClanahan went 12-8 with a 2.54 ERA and 0.926 WHIP in 28 starts last season with 194 K's in 166 1/3 innings. He has picked up where he left off, going 2-0 with a 1.50 ERA and 1.167 WHIP in two starts this season allowing just 2 earned runs in 12 innings. He owns the Red Sox, going 4-1 with a 2.10 ERA and 0.990 WHIP in six career starts against them. Garrett Whitlock will be making his first start of the season. He only pitched 5 innings in spring training and is behind to start the season. Now he has to face the hottest lineup in baseball here in the Rays and I don't expect it to go well for him. Boston is 1-11 in its last 12 games after scoring one run or fewer in a division loss. Tampa Bay is 44-13 in its last 57 games as a favorite of -150 or more. Bet the Rays Tuesday. |

15* Dodgers/Giants NL Late-Night BAILOUT on OVER 7.5 The forecast is going to help us cash this OVER ticket between the Dodgers and Giants tonight. There is expected to be 18 MPH winds blowing out to center tonight at Oracle Park in San Francisco. That's why I'm willing to back an OVER in a game involving Julio Urias, who is one of the best starters in baseball. But the Dodgers are more than capable of covering this OVER on their own against Logan Webb and the Giants. Webb has allowed 12 earned runs in 15 innings in his last three starts against the Dodgers. The Giants have a 5.40 bullpen ERA this season. They are scoring 5.2 runs per game and allowing 4.7 runs per game. The Dodgers are scoring 6.0 runs per game and allowing 4.4 runs per game. The Dodgers are 15-4 OVER in their last 19 games after allowing 8 runs or more. San Francisco is 16-5 OVER in its last 21 games after a combined score of 4 runs or less. The OVER is 6-0 in Dodgers last six games following a loss. The OVER is 12-5 in Giants last 17 games overall. Bet the OVER in this game Monday. |

20* Interleague TOTAL OF THE WEEK on Nationals/Angels OVER 9.5 It just shows how poor the Washington Nationals are this season when Patrick Corbin is their Opening Day starter. Corbin went 9-16 with a 5.82 ERA and 1.468 WHIP in 2021 and 6-19 with a 6.31 ERA and 1.697 WHIP in 2022. It has been more of the same for Corbin to open 2023. He is 0-2 with an 8.00 ERA and 2.222 WHIP in two starts this season allowing 8 earned runs and 20 base runners in 9 innings. He'll get rocked by the Angels again tonight. Los Angeles has one of the most potent lineups in baseball and is scoring 6.2 runs per game on the season, including 7.7 runs per game at home. But the Angels have a shaky pitching staff outside of Shohei Ohtani and Tyler Anderson. They are allowing 4.6 runs per game including 7.0 runs per game at home. Their bullpen has a 4.45 ERA on the season. Jose Suarez was rocked for 6 earned runs in 4 2/3 innings of an 11-2 loss to the Mariners in his first start this season. Now he faces a Nationals team that has scored 7.7 runs per game in their last three games overall. The Nationals will get their runs to help contribute to this OVER, and the Angels are capable of covering it on their own after scoring 20 runs in their last two games over the weekend. The forecast will also help us cash this OVER ticket. It will be 70 degrees in Los Angeles tonight with 8 MPH winds blowing out to right-center. The OVER is 5-1-1 in Nationals last seven games overall. The OVER is 22-9-2 in Nationals last 33 interleague home games. Bet the OVER in this game Monday. |

15* MLB Monday Undervalued Underdog on San Diego Padres +120 The San Diego Padres are 6-2 in their last eight games overall and have scored at least 4 runs in seven of those eight games. They have one of the best lineups in baseball, and I don't think they should be underdogs to the New York Mets tonight. Father time catches up to everyone, and this might just be the year it catches up to Max Scherzer. He is 1-1 with a 6.35 ERA and 1.412 WHIP in two starts this season, allowing 8 earned runs and 4 homers in 11 1/3 innings. Yu Darvish is coming off a great season in San Diego and was sharp in his first start this season, allowing just one earned run in 5 innings to the Diamondbacks. Darvish owns the Mets having never lost to them, going 6-0 with a 2.41 ERA and 0.754 WHIP in nine career starts against them. Scherzer allowed 7 earned runs in 4 2/3 innings in his last start against the Padres and has now allowed 14 earned runs and 7 homers in 16 innings in his last three starts against them. Bet the Padres Monday. |

15* NL PLAY OF THE DAY on Miami Marlins -110 The Philadelphia Phillies are really struggling to start the season. They are 3-6 and scoring just 3.3 runs per game with a depleted lineup, and allowing 5.8 runs per game with one of the worst staffs in the National League. Their bullpen has a 6.75 ERA on the season and is one of the worst bullpens in the league. The Marlins have a big advantage on the mound tonight with Sandy Alcantara over Matt Strahm. Alcantara won the NL Cy Young last season while going 14-9 with a 2.28 ERA and 0.980 WHIP with 207 K's. He is 1-0 with a 1.84 ERA and 0.750 WHIP in two starts this season allowing just 3 earned runs and 11 base runners in 14 2/3 innings. Matt Strahm is getting his first real crack at being a starter this season and isn't likely to go deep into this game. That will lead the Marlins to getting into Philly's woeful bullpen early. Strahm allowed 7 earned runs in 4 1/3 innings in his lone career start against the Marlins. The Marlins are 10-0 in Alcantara's 10 starts vs. a team with a losing record over the alst two seasons and winning by 2.4 runs per game in this spot. Bet the Marlins Monday. |

The Rays improve to 10-0 this season when they host the Boston Rd Sox for Game 1 of this series Monday. The Red Sox have one of the worst pitching staffs in baseball and are allowing 5.2 runs per game this season. Nick Pivetta is 40-51 with a 4.99 ERA and 1.390 WHIP in his career. Pivetta is 1-5 with a 4.83 ERA and 1.366 WHIP in eight career starts against Tampa Bay.

20* NBA DOG OF THE WEEK on New Orleans Pelicans +4 The Pelicans came up clutch last year late in the season and in the play-in before giving the Suns a run for their money. That experience is paying off this year as the Pelicans are 9-2 SU & 8-2- ATS in their last 11 games overall and coming up clutch again. Now the Pelicans have a lot to play for here to try and either move up in the play-in and possibly get a Top 5 seed if everything breaks their way, or at the very least lock in a Top 8 spot with a win over the Timberwolves here. I trust them much more than the Timberwolves, who are still trying to form some chemistry with all the new pieces. Minnesota will also be playing the 2nd of a back-to-back here after a 151-131 shootout win in San Antonio last night. That puts them at a big disadvantage, and I love the value we are getting on the Pelicans as underdogs here after having yesterday off and with all that big game experience gained over the past couple seasons. The Pelicans are 7-0-1 ATS in their last eight games when playing on one days' rest. The Timberwolves are 1-7 ATS in their last eight home games. Minnesota is 0-6 ATS in its last six home games vs. a team with a losing road record. New Orleans is 5-1 ATS in its last six trips to Minnesota. Bet the Pelicans Sunday. |

The winner will likely be the 8th seed while the loser will likely be the 9th seed. There's a big difference between the 8th and 9th seed in the play-in round. With so much at stake, defensive intensity in this game will be high. The UNDER is 19-7 in Pelicans last 26 games overall. The UNDER is 12-2 in Pelicans last 14 road games.

The Cardinals finally ended their six-game winning streak while stopping a four-game losing streak of their own with a 6-0 victory yesterday. And I like the value we are getting on the Cardinals today as big road underdogs. Jake Woodford pitched 5 shutout innings while allowing only 3 base runners in a 2-1 win over the Brewers in his lone career start against them. Freddy Peralta has never beaten the Cardinals, going 0-4 with a 7.24 ERA and 1.577 WHIP in eight career starts against them. Bet the Cardinals Sunday. |

15* NBA Sunday Undervalued Underdog on Detroit Pistons +7.5 The Detroit Pistons have already locked up the worst record in the NBA and optimal odds to get the 1st pick in the draft. They are no longer tanking to close out the season and trying to win these final couple games. They pulled the 122-115 upset at Indiana as 6.5-point dogs last game, and I think they have a great shot to pull the upset as 7.5-point road dogs at Chicago today. The Bulls have nothing to play for and are locked into the 10th seed. They will be in the play-in round against the Raptors. They are unlikely to play starters today as a result, and could care less about winning this game. They should not be this big of favorites when they are unmotivated and just trying to get healthy going into the playoffs. Chicago is 1-8 ATS in home games following two consecutive home games this season. Bet the Pistons Sunday. |

20* MLB Sunday No-Doubt Rout on Tampa Bay Rays -1.5 (-145) The Tampa Bay Rays are 8-0 this season with all eight wins by 4 runs or more. They are scoring 8.0 runs per game with an underrated offense, and allowing 2.2 runs per game with one of the best pitching staffs in baseball. The Rays continue taking advantage of their easy early schedule by hosting the Oakland A's for Game 3 of this series today. The A's are 2-6 this season scoring just 3.4 runs per game and allowing 7.6 runs per game. They have one of the worst lineups in baseball and a terrible staff as well. Drew Rasmussen fired 6 shutout innings with 7 K's while allowing only two base runners in a 6-2 win at Washington in his first start this season. He'll be opposed by James Kaprielian, who allowed 5 earned runs and 9 base runners in 5 innings of a 12-11 loss to the Guardians in his first start this season. Bet the Rays on the Run Line Sunday. |

20* Blue Jays/Angels AL Late-Night BAILOUT on Los Angeles -115 The Los Angeles Angels should be much bigger favorites tonight over the Toronto Blue Jays considering the big advantage they have on the mound. I'll gladly back Tyler Anderson over Jose Berrios at this short number. Anderson went 15-5 with a 2.57 ERA and 1.002 WHIP in 178 2/3 innings for the Dodgers last season. He posted a 1.35 ERA in the spring while allowing just 2 earned runs and 12 base runners in 13 1/3 innings. And he was dominant in his first tart this season pitching 6 shutout innings in a 6-0 victory over the A's. Berrios is decent at home but terrible on the road throughout his career, especially last season. Berrios posted a 5.23 ERA and 1.419 WHIP in 32 starts for the Blue Jays last season, including a 6.36 ERA and 1.525 WHIP in 16 road starts. He just allowed 8 earned runs in 5 2/3 innings at Kansas City in his first start this season, and the Royals aren't nearly as good an offensive team as the Angels. Berrios is 2-4 with a 6.81 ERA and 1.598 WHIP in seven career starts against the Angels. He has allowed 12 earned runs in 6 2/3 innings in his last two starts against Los Angeles.

04-08-23 | Cardinals v. Brewers +134 | 6-0 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 15 m | Show | |
15* MLB Saturday Undervalued Underdog on Milwaukee Brewers +134 The Milwaukee Brewers are 6-0 in their last six games overall and should not be this big of a home underdog to the St. Louis Cardinals today. The Brewers have scored a total of 39 runs in their last five games and are hitting the cover off the ball right now. The St. Louis Cardinals are 0-4 in their last four games overall while scoring a total of 7 runs in those four defeats. The Cardinals may have a slight advantage on the mound with Montgomery over Lauer in this one, but I think the Brewers make up for it at the plate with as hot as they have been compared to how cold the Cardinals have been. The Brewers are 15-5 in Lauer's last 20 starts following a win in their previous game. Montgomery's teams are 5-11 (-13.2 Units) in his last 16 starts as a road favorite of -125 or more. Bet the Brewers Saturday. |

20* MLB Saturday No-Doubt Rout on Tampa Bay Rays -1.5 (-135) The Tampa Bay Rays are 7-0 this season with all seven wins by 4 runs or more. They are scoring 7.6 runs per game with an underrated offense, and allowing 2.6 runs per game with one of the best pitching staffs in baseball. The Rays continue taking advantage of their easy early schedule by hosting the Oakland A's for Game 2 of this series tonight. The A's are 2-5 this season scoring just 3.9 runs per game and allowing 7.1 runs per game. They have one of the worst lineups in baseball and a terrible staff as well. Jeffrey Springs went 9-5 with a 2.46 ERA and 1.071 WHIP in 135 1/3 innings last season. He pitched 14 shutout innings in spring training while allowing only seven base runners with 24 K's. He allowed one base runner in 6 innings with 12 K's in a dominant first start against the Tigers this season. Shintaro Fujinami was rocked for 8 earned runs in 2 1/3 innings of a 13-1 loss to the Angels in his major league debut this season. He struggles with control which was evident in the spring with 17 walks in 18 2/3 innings. Bet the Rays on the Run Line Saturday. |

04-07-23 | Knicks v. Pelicans -8 | 105-113 | Push | 0 | 8 h 22 m | Show | |
15* NBA Friday Night BLOWOUT on New Orleans Pelicans -8 The New York Knicks are locked into the 5th seed in the East and will play the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round of the playoffs. They could care less about winning these last two games. Their three best players will sit tonight in Julius Randle, Jalen Brunson and RJ Barrett. They won't be competitive as a result. The New Orleans Pelicans have a lot to play for still trying to get a Top 8 seed in the Western Conference. They are tied with the Lakers for 7th, one game back of both the Warriors and Clippers, and one game ahead of the Timberwolves. The Pelicans came up clutch last year late in the season and in the play-in before giving the Suns a run for their money. That experience is paying off this year as the Pelicans are 8-2 SU & 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games overall and coming up clutch again. Now they will make easy work of the short-handed, unmotivated Knicks tonight. New Orleans is 7-0 ATS in its last seven games when playing on one days' rest. Bet the Pelicans Friday. |

20* NBA Eastern Conference GAME OF THE WEEK on Toronto Raptors ML +105 The Boston Celtics are locked into the 2nd seed in the East and have nothing to play for. There's a good chance they rest all their starters tonight. They should not be favored over the Toronto Raptors as a result. The Toronto Raptors are still battling for play-in positioning in the East one game behind the Hawks for the 8th seed. There's a big difference between the 8th and 9th seeds. I'll gladly side with the more motivated team tonight to win this game outright as an underdog. The Raptors have saved their best basketball for last as they are 8-4 SU & 8-4 ATS in their last 12 games overall with three of those losses coming to the top three teams in the East in the Bucks, 76ers and Celtics all by 7 points or fewer. Toronto is 6-0-1 ATS in its last seven games when playing on one days' rest. Bet the Raptors on the Money Line Friday. |

15* MLB Friday Night BLOWOUT on Tampa Bay Rays -1.5 (-130) The Tampa Bay Rays are 6-0 this season with all six wins by 4 runs or more. They are scoring 7.3 runs per game with an underrated offense, and allowing 2.2 runs per game with one of the best pitching staffs in baseball. The Rays continue taking advantage of their easy early schedule by hosting the Oakland A's for Game 1 of this series tonight. The A's are 2-4 this season scoring just 3.7 runs per game and allowing 6.8 runs per game. They have one of the worst lineups in baseball and a terrible staff as well. Zach Eflin held the Tigers to one earned run in 5 innings of a 12-2 victory in his first start this season. Eflin fired 4 shutout innings against the A's in his lone career start against them last season. Ken Waldichuk allowed 6 earned runs and 3 homers in 5 2/3 innings in his first start this season against the Angels in a 6-0 defeat. Waldichuk has now allowed at least 4 earned runs in four of his last six starts dating back to last season. Bet the Rays on the Run Line Friday. |

20* Heat/76ers TNT No-Brainer on Miami +3.5 The Miami Heat are still playing to try to avoid the play-in round or at the very least earn the 7th seed which will give them the advantage in the play-in round. They are 1.5 games behind the Nets for 6th and 1.5 games ahead of the Hawks for 7th. While this game means something to the Heat, it means absolutely nothing to the 76ers. They are locked into the 3rd seed in the East. Don't be surprised if they rest their starters over the final three games as a result. At the very least, they won't be motivated to win these games. Miami is 3-1 SU & 3-1 ATS in its last four meetings with Philadelphia winning its last two trips to Philly outright as underdogs. Bet the Heat Thursday. |

15* Interleague PLAY OF THE DAY on Giants/White Sox OVER 8 The forecast is going to help us cash this OVER ticket between the Giants and White Sox today. Temps will be in the 50's with 15 MPH winds blowing out to left-center at Guaranteed Rate Field in Chicago this afternoon. Alex Wood and Lance Lynn are both past their primes. The White Sox have gone for at least 9 combined runs in five consecutive games and are 5-0 OVER in those five games. The Giants have gone for 10 or more combined runs in three of their last four games and are 3-1 OVER during this stretch. The OVER is 8-0-1 in the last nine meetings in Chicago.

04-06-23 | Red Sox v. Tigers OVER 8 | 6-3 | Win | 100 | 2 h 3 m | Show | |
15* AL PLAY OF THE DAY on Red Sox/Tigers OVER 8 The forecast is going to help us cash this OVER ticket this afternoon. Temps will be in the 50's in Detroit with 13 MPH winds blowing out to left-center. Chris Sale is a shell of his former self due to injury. He allowed 7 earned runs and 3 homers in 3 innings against the Orioles in his first start this season. Spencer Turnbull is a gas can for the Tigers. He allowed 7 earned runs and 11 base runners in 2 2/3 innings to the Rays in his first start this season. The OVER is 6-0 in Red Sox last six road games vs. a right-handed starter. The OVER is 4-1 in Tigers last five games overall. Bet the OVER in this game Thursday. |

04-05-23 | Lakers v. Clippers UNDER 232 | Top | 118-125 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 53 m | Show |
20* Lakers/Clippers ESPN Late-Night BAILOUT on UNDER 232 The Lakers and Clippers are tied for the 6th and 7th spots in the West. The 6th will avoid the play-in round, while the 7th won't so there is a lot at stake here. These teams hate each other as it is, and I expect the defensive intensity to be very high in this one. The Lakers have been the best defensive team in the NBA since the All-Star Break. The Clippers have been one of the better defensive teams in the NBA all season. This is a very high total considering what is at stake here. The UNDER is 16-4-2 in Lakers last 22 games vs. a team with a winning record. The UNDER is 30-13 in Clippers last 43 home games. Bet the UNDER in this game Wednesday. |

04-05-23 | Rays -1.5 v. Nationals | Top | 7-2 | Win | 100 | 2 h 55 m | Show |
20* MLB Wednesday No-Doubt Rout on Tampa Bay Rays -1.5 (-140) The Tampa Bay Rays are 5-0 this season and scoring 7.4 runs per game. The Washington Nationals are 1-4 this season and scoring just 3.0 runs per game. The Rays should win this game by two runs or more today given their big advantage on the mound. Shane McClanahan went 12-8 with a 2.54 ERA and 0.926 WHIP in 28 starts last season. He had a 0.93 ERA and 0.724 WHIP in the spring. He pitched 6 shutout innings in a 4-0 victory over the Tigers in his first start this season. Pat Corbin was one of the worst starters in baseball last season and it just shows how poor a shape the Nationals are in this season with him being their Opening Day starter. Corbin went 6-19 with a 6.31 ERA and 1.697 WHIP in 31 starts last season. He allowed 4 runs and 10 base runners in 3 innings in his opening start against the Braves. The Nationals are 4-24 in Corbin's last 28 starts as an underdog of +100 or higher and losing by 3.9 runs per game. Washington is 2-18 in Corbin's last 20 starts vs. a team with a winning record and losing by 3.5 runs per game. Bet the Rays on the Run Line Wednesday. |
