05-07-21 | White Sox -145 v. Royals | 3-0 | Win | 100 | 9 h 57 m | Show | |
A pair of 16-win teams looking to snap losing streaks here tonight as the White Sox take on the Royals from Kansas City. The Whites Sox lost their last game at Cincinnati, 0-1. The loss dropped them to 16-13 and a half game back of the Indians for the AL Central lead. The Royals are just a half game back of the White Sox in the Central with a 16-14 record, but have lost five straight games and seven of their last 10. The Sox start a red-hot Carlos Rondon tonight. Rondon is 4-0 in his four starts with a 0.72 ERA and 0.640 WHIP. Rondon has allowed just two runs over his 25 innings this year with 36 KO's and just nine walks. The Royals Brad Keller will toe the rubber with a 2-3 record in his six starts. Keller has allowed 14 runs over his last 12 innings of work. Huge difference in starters here tonight. I'll take the White Sox and a red-hot Rondon. Play Chicago. |

05-07-21 | Brewers v. Marlins -132 | 1-6 | Win | 100 | 18 h 7 m | Show | |
Milwaukee and Miami begin their set here on Friday. The Brewers lost on Thursday at Philadelphia, 0-2, while the Marlins beat the Diamondbacks, 3-1. The Brewers have dropped to 2nd place in the NL Central, one game back of the Cardinals. Miami looks to get one game closer to the .500 mark here today as they sit at 14-16 and 4th in the NL East. The Brewers start Brent Suter for the first time this year. This is a bullpen start for manager Craig Counsell who says Friday is about the bullpen. So, don't expect Suter to be around long in this game, maybe three innings maximum. Suter has been very good out of the pen with a 2.70 ERA with 15 KO's in his 16.2 innings. The Marlins will counter with Trevor Rogers. Rogers is 3-2 in his six starts with a nifty 1.91 ERA and 1.061 WHIP. Rogers has held three of his opponents this year to no runs with two other getting two runs and the last three runs. Rogers has been very good for the fish and with the Brewers going to the pen out of the gate, I'm taking the host in this one. Play Miami. |
|||||||
05-06-21 | Lakers v. Clippers UNDER 211.5 | Top | 94-118 | Loss | -113 | 8 h 56 m | Show |
Battle for LA here tonight as the Clippers and Lakers play at the Staples center. No home court for either team as Staples Center is home to both. However, the Lakers are just holding onto that 6th and final playoff spot. They are 1/2 game ahead of Portland who is in that 7-10 place Play-in positions. The Lakers did win their last game, but have lost seven of their last 10 overall. The Clippers are in 4th place and have that secure. They can't fall any further but they can improve as they are tied with Denver and just three games back of Phoenix for 2nd place. Lakers have had injury issues all season and here again tonight they are dealing with key injuries. Lebron James is out tonight with an ankle injury and Anthony Davis is now probable with a calf injury. Lakers know they can't get into a run and gun shootout with the Clippers. I look for this game to slow down the pace tonight. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
05-05-21 | Kings v. Coyotes -132 | 4-2 | Loss | -132 | 11 h 24 m | Show | |
Only a handful of games left in the NHL regular season and two teams still alive to make a playoff spot meet tonight as the Coyotes host the Kings. The LA Kings likely are done, they sit nine-points back of 4th place St Louis for that final spot. However, Arizona has a much better chance, sitting five points back of the Blues. The Coyotes have lost two straight and are 3-6-1 over their last 10 games. The Kings are 4-6 over their last 10 games. Neither team likely will gain that fourth spot, but Arizona needs this one much more than the Kings do. Play Arizona. |
|||||||
05-05-21 | Pirates v. Padres UNDER 6.5 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 28 m | Show | |
The San Diego Padres host the Pittsburgh Pirates here today for game three of their series. The Padres lost last night to the Bucs, 1-2 after taking the opener 2-0. The Padres have scored two runs or fewer in their last three games. Yu Darvish has seen his a resurgence since coming to the Padres. Darvish is 3-1 in his six starts with a nifty 2.13 ERA and 0.8995 WHIP. Darvish has allowed just one run in each of his last five starts. The Pirates improved to 13-16 after yesterday's win. They will start J.T. Brubaker here today. Brubaker is 2-2 in his five starts with a 2.63 ERA and 1.025 WHIP. Two very good starters here, especially a red-hot Darvish. Your play is on the UNDER. |
|||||||
05-05-21 | Wizards +3.5 v. Bucks | 134-135 | Win | 100 | 8 h 43 m | Show | |
The Washington Wizards holding onto that 10th and last play-in spot in the postseason. The Wizards are just a half game back of Indiana and two back of Charlotte. The Wizards have been hot, winning eight of their last 10 games. The Wizards have also been great to bettors of late, covering four straight and going 14-2-1 over their last 17 games. Expect a bit of a letdown here tonight as the Milwaukee Bucks not only played last night, but had to play the Brooklyn Nets who they beat 124-118 in a back-and-forth contest. The Nets are ahead of the Bucks now in the Eastern Conference by just 1 1/2 games. Still, have to think Bucks won't be up for this game here tonight. I'll take the points with the red-hot Wizards. Play Washington. |
|||||||
05-05-21 | Suns v. Hawks +1 | Top | 103-135 | Win | 100 | 8 h 43 m | Show |
The Atlanta Hawks are 5th in the Eastern Conference with a 36-30 record. They have won two straight games and six of their last 10. The Hawks can't relax though as they lead 6th place Miami by just one game and 7th place Boston by just 1 1/2 games. That being the important spot as Boston is in that first play-in position. The Phoenix Suns are tied for the best record in the West with Utah at 47-18. They have won five straight and seven of the last 10 games. Problem tonight for the Suns is that they are playing the 2nd of a back-to-back spot here. The Suns played at Cleveland last night, and won 134-118. However, don't let that score fool you, they had to cover the 13-point spread in Overtime, something almost unheard of these days. Back to back for the Suns, off an OT game and now they hit the road again to play at Atlanta. I'll take the host here tonight against what should be a letdown spot for the Suns. Play Atlanta. |
|||||||
05-05-21 | Brewers -131 v. Phillies | 4-5 | Loss | -131 | 8 h 22 m | Show | |
Milwaukee Brewers look to snap a 3-game losing streak as they head to Philly to take on the Phillies today. The Brewers are still 17-13 on the season. Freddy Peralta gets the start for the Brewers. Peralta is 3-0 in his five starts with a nice 2.42 ERA and 0.885 WHIP. Philly has a 2-game win streak that they bring into tonight's game. The Phillies have climbed their way back to .500 at 15-15 on the season. Chase Anderson gets the start today. Anderson is 1-3 in his five starts with a 5.40 ERA. Big difference between starters here as I give a big edge to Peralta. Play Milwaukee. |
|||||||
05-05-21 | Diamondbacks v. Marlins -138 | 0-8 | Win | 100 | 8 h 57 m | Show | |
The Arizona Diamondbacks dropped to 15-14 last night after losing to Miami, 3-9. The D'backs are averaging 5.3 runs per game this year and allowing 5.3 runs per game. Luke Weaver gets the start for the D'backs. Weaver is 1-2 after five starts with a 4.91 ERA. He hasn't done very well after three road starts, posting a 6.75 ERA. The Marlins have received excellent pitching this year, evidenced by their 3.8 runs per game allowed. One of those fine pitchers starts tonight in Pablo Lopez. Lopez is 0-2 in his six starts but has a nice 2.34 ERA. At home he's been even better with a 1.02 ERA in three starts. I like Lopez at home here today. Play Miami. |
|||||||
05-05-21 | Orioles +110 v. Mariners | 6-0 | Win | 110 | 5 h 57 m | Show | |
The Baltimore Orioles have split their first two games with the Seattle Mariners. The O's won the opener 5-3 and then lost last night 2.5. The loss dropped them to 14-16 on the season. John Means takes to the hill today for the O's with a 3-0 record in his six starts. He also has a very nice 1.70 ERA overall and 1.05 ERA on the road. Seattle improved to 17-14 on the season with their win last night. Yusei Kikuchi toes the rubber today for the M's. Kikuchi has a 1-1 record after five starts with a 4.40 ERA. He has a 5.54 ERA at home after a pair of starts. I like the way Means is pitching for the O's and that has me on them here early on Wednesday. Play Baltimore. |
|||||||
05-05-21 | Real Madrid v. Chelsea +129 | 0-2 | Win | 129 | 4 h 16 m | Show | |
Semi-final action here tonight in the Champions League has Chelsea hosting Real Madrid. Both teams coming off respective wins, Chelsea over Fulham and Real Madrid over Osasuna. Chelsea is 3-1-2 in its last six Champion League matches and all competitions. Meanwhile, Madrid is 4-0-2 over their last six Champion League matches. Two good defensive teams here but edge goes to Chelsea as the Madrid side a bit depleted. Offense edge to Chelsea too. Your play is on Chelsea today. |
|||||||
05-04-21 | Blue Jays v. A's -119 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 10 h 25 m | Show | |
Toronto Bluejays lost to the A's on Monday and that dropped them to 14-13 on the season. The Jays have average 4.6 rpg while allowing just 3.8 rpg. Today they will start Anthony Kay. Kay is 0-1 in his lone start with a 10.81 ERA. Kay allowed four earned runs over 3 1/3 innings. The Oakland A's have won two straight to improve to 18-12 on the season. This despite starting the year 1-7. The A's will start Cole Irvin. Irvin is 2-3 in his five starts with a 3.67 ERA and 1.297 WHIP. Irvine has pitched well of late, allowing just three earned runs over his last17 2/3 innings with 20 KO's and two walks. I like the A's again here on Tuesday with Irvin on the hill. Play Oakland. |
|||||||
05-04-21 | Kings -5 v. Thunder | Top | 103-99 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 45 m | Show |
The Sacramento Kings are not eliminated from the postseason, but time is running out as they site 4-games back of 10th place San Antonio. As for the OKC Thunder, they are eliminated from the postseason. They have also lost three straight games and nine of their last 10. The Kings have won two straight and are 5-3 their last eight games. They are also 7-2 ATS their last nine games. They are coming off a pair of huge road wins, one at the Lakers, 110-106 and then last game at Dallas, 111-99. The Kings need this game tonight to have any chance and they play a Thunder team that has won just once in their last 18 games. This is a great situation for the Kings to take advantage of a down team and grab an extra game in the standings. Take Sacramento. |
|||||||
05-04-21 | White Sox v. Reds -101 | 9-0 | Loss | -101 | 8 h 21 m | Show | |
The Chicago White Sox dropped to 15-12 after losing on Monday to the Reds. The Sox have averaged a very good 5.0 runs per game this season while allowing just 3.9 runs. They will start Dylan Cease here on Tuesday. Cease has a 1-0 record after five starts with a 2.96 ERA. The Reds look to get back to the .500 mark here tonight as they sit at 13-14. The Reds average a league high 5.6 runs per game this year. However, they do allow 5.3 runs per game. Jeff Hoffman will to the rubber for the Reds tonight. Hoffman is 2-1 after five starts with a 3.33 ERA. He's been even better at home, going 2-0 in his three starts with a 1.69 ERA. Getting the big hitting Reds as a small home dog here tonight is too much to pass on. Play Cincinnati. |
|||||||
05-03-21 | Spurs v. Jazz UNDER 220 | Top | 99-110 | Win | 100 | 6 h 47 m | Show |
Games difficult to get a handle on these last games of the regular season as many players sitting for rest as the playoffs near. But Jim has this under tonight that he likes a lot between the Spurs and the Jazz. The Jazz are tied for first in the Western Conference with the Phoenix Suns. The Spurs hold the last spot in the play-in list of 7 thru 10 spots. They have a 2 1/2 game lead over New Orleans but are just one game back of 8th place Memphis. The Spurs could be without Dejounte Murray tonight who is questionable with a ankle injury and Derrick White is out with an ankle. The Jazz are still playing without Donovan Mitchell who has an ankle injury. I'm looking for this game to go under tonight as both sides nursing injuries. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
05-03-21 | Mets v. Cardinals -119 | 5-6 | Win | 100 | 9 h 54 m | Show | |
The New York Mets bring a 2-game win streak into today's series opening game with the St Louis Cardinals. The climbed back to the .500 mark at 11-11. Today they will start Joey Lucchesi. Lucchesi is 0-1 after two starts with a 9.00 ERA and 1.333 WHIP. Lucchesi has yet to go past three innings in either of his two starts. The Cardinals extended their win streak to four games and improved to 16-12 on the season. They will start Adam Wainwright tonight. Wainwright is 0-3 in his five starts but has a respectable 4.08 ERA and 1.256 WHIP. Wainwright has pitched even better of late, allowing just three runs over his last 16 innings. He also had a nine-inning complete game last time out vs Philly where he allowed just two runs. I like the Cardinals here today with Wainwright. |
|||||||
05-03-21 | Jets -148 v. Senators | 1-2 | Loss | -148 | 9 h 52 m | Show | |
The NHL is down to a final few games in their regular season. The Winnipeg Jets are in 3rd place in the All-Canadian North Division. The jets have 57 points, five back of 2nd place Edmonton and just two ahead of fourth place Montreal. The Jets look to snap a 6-game losing streak here tonight at Ottawa. The Senators have been eliminated from the playoffs with just 43 points. The Senators have the worst goal differential in the division with a -36. Winnipeg doesn't want to fall to fourth place and with that I'll lay the money on the road with them here tonight. Play Winnipeg. |
|||||||
05-02-21 | Southern Illinois v. South Dakota State -15.5 | 26-31 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 36 m | Show | |
FCS Football playoffs continue here on Sunday as South Dakota State hosts Southern Illinois. SD State is 6-1 on this shortened season while Southern Illinois comes into this one at 6-3. Both these teams are from the Missouri Valley conference. In fact, four of the remaining eight teams are from the Missouri Valley. SD State Jackrabbits coming off a nice performance where they held Holy Cross to just three points in a 31-3 win. Southern Illinois had a bit more trouble, beating Weber State 34-31. SD State already has beaten this team once, back in March when the Jackrabbits went into Southern Illinois and won going away, 44-3. I like this SD State team as they have a great defense and that makes laying the 15 or 15 1/2 points a bit easier to take. Play South Dakota State. |
|||||||
05-02-21 | Knicks v. Rockets OVER 217 | Top | 122-97 | Win | 100 | 10 h 34 m | Show |
The New York Knicks hold onto that 4th playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. The Knicks have been hot too, winning nine of their last 10 games. Houston, well their season is almost over. The Rockets are dead last in the West and already eliminated from the postseason. The Knicks have been a very good over team too. They are 3-1 O/U in their last four and 7-2 O/U in their last nine games. Houston gives up a lot points, 115.3 overall on the season and 114.2 points at home. I'm going to play this game over this evening. |
|||||||
05-02-21 | Mets v. Phillies -114 | 8-7 | Loss | -114 | 2 h 44 m | Show | |
The New York Mets improved to 10-11 with their win over the Phillies on Saturday. The Mets are having issues hitting, evidenced by their 3.0 runs per game scored this season. They will start David Peterson. Peterson is 1-3 after four starts with a 5.59 ERA. However, Peterson on the road is 0-2 with a 11.05 ERA and 2.046 WHIP. The Phillies can get back to the .500 mark with a win here today. The Phils are 13-14 and will start Zach Eflin. Eflin is 1-1 after five starts with a 3.58 ERA. Eflin has been much better at home where he is 3-0 in his three starts with a 1.80 ERA. Eflin too good at home to pass on him here this evening. Play Philadelphia. |
|||||||
05-02-21 | Marlins v. Nationals UNDER 7 | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 4 h 30 m | Show | |
The Miami Marlins look to snap a two-game losing streak to the Nationals here today. The Marlins have dropped to 11-15 on the season. They have a good shot today with Trevor Rogers on the hill. Rogers is 3-1 in his five starts with a 1.29 ERA and 1.000 WHIP. Rogers has not allowed a run over his last 10 innings of work. Washington looks to extend their three-game win streak. Even with the streak, the Nationals are still below .500 at 11-12. They will start Max Scherzer today. Scherzer is just 1-2 after five starts though he has a good 3.00 ERA and 0.933 WHIP. I don't like a side here, but I do like the UNDER. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
05-01-21 | Wizards v. Mavs OVER 232 | 124-125 | Win | 100 | 7 h 10 m | Show | |
We approach the end of the NBA regular season and the Washington Wizards are just holding onto that 10th and final play-in spot. The Wizards have been red hot, winning two straight and nine of their last 10 games. They lead 11th place Chicago by 3-games and trail 8th place Charlotte by 1 1/2 games. The Dallas Mavericks are in 6th place, which is the final playoff spot in the West. They are just one half game ahead of 7th place Portland. The difference being that 7th place thru 10th place are play-in games. I'll be looking at the over in this contest. Washington played last night so this is the second of a back-to-back spot. In this situation, the Wizards are 58-28-1 O/U their last 87 games. Dallas is 7-3 O/U at home in their last 10 games against a team with a losing record. I look for a high scoring game here tonight and as such will play the OVER. |
|||||||
05-01-21 | Panthers -147 v. Blackhawks | 5-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 21 m | Show | |
NHL Central action here has the Chicago Blackhawks hosting the Florida Panthers tonight. The Panthers have locked-up a playoff spot as they sit 2nd in the division. However, they still can get top spot as they trail first place Carolina by just two-points. They also need to keep Tampa Bay in third, which they lead by just one game. The Chicago Blackhawks are not officially eliminated from the playoffs, but time is running out fast. They Hawks trail fourth place Nashville by six points. They have also lost three straight as they come into tonight's game. For me, the Hawks know they are done and that means the Panthers have a bit more to play for tonight. Play Florida. |
|||||||
05-01-21 | Canucks v. Maple Leafs OVER 6 | 1-5 | Push | 0 | 8 h 20 m | Show | |
In the All-Canadian North Divsion the Toronto MapleLafs have secured the top spot in the division with 69 points, nine ahead of second place Edmonton. The Leafs have won four straight games and are 5-3-2 their last 10. the Vancouver Canucks are dead last in the division with just 41 points and have a three game losing streak coming into this game. I like this game to have plenty of scoring tonight. Play the OVER. |
|||||||
05-01-21 | Cardinals -136 v. Pirates | 12-5 | Win | 100 | 17 h 31 m | Show | |
St Louis Cardinals took game one of this series with the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday, 7-3. It was the second win in a row for the Cardinals as they improved to 14-12 on the season. The Pirates dropped below the .500 mark at 12-13 with the loss. St Louis will start Jack Flaherty. Flaherty has taken the role of Ace on this team so far with a 4-0 record after five starts. He has a nice 3.18 ERA and 0.953 WHIP. In fact, in his opening game this year, Flaherty allowed six runs over 4 1/3 innings. Since then, he's allowed four total runs over his next 24 innings of work. The Pirates will start Trevor Cahill. Cahill has a 7.11 ERA after four starts and has been very inconsistent. I like the Cards here today, especially with Flaherty on the hill. |
|||||||
05-01-21 | Cubs v. Reds OVER 9 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -104 | 5 h 22 m | Show |
The Cubs lost their opening game of this series to the Reds on Friday, 6-8. It was the team's third over in a row. The Cubs now allow 4.9 runs per game. Won't get any easier for them today as they start a struggling Zach Davies. Davies is 1-2 in his five starts with a 9.47 ERA and 2.209 WHIP. He's coming off a start where he allowed six hits and five runs over 3 2/3 innings to the Braves. The Cincinnati Reds have plenty of hitting, as they lead the majors in home runs and average 5.4 runs per game. They are the best over team in baseball with a 18-6-1 O/U record. They also will send a struggling pitcher to the hill today in the form of Luis Castillo. Castillo is 1-2 in his five starts with a 6.29 ERA and 1.6-3 WHIP. Neither pitcher is all that good and Cincinnati has plenty of offense. Take OVER. |
|||||||
04-30-21 | Rockies v. Diamondbacks -116 | 2-7 | Win | 100 | 11 h 55 m | Show | |
Colorado and Arizona continue their series here tonight in Arizona. Colorado lost game one of this series on Thursday after Arizona broke the game open in the 7th. Colorado dropped to 9-16 on the season. They will start Jon Gray tonight. Gray has five starts and is 3-1 with a 2.54 ERA. The D'backs improved to 13-12 with the win. They have averaged 5.2 runs per game this season. Madison Bumgarner starts tonight with a 6.31 ERA after five starts. However, he is coming off a 7 inning no-hitter against Atlanta in his last start. Moreover, he's allowed just one run over his last 12 innings with 12 Ko's and just one walk. I like Arizona tonight with a very improved Bumgarner on the hill. Play Arizona. |
|||||||
04-30-21 | Blazers -2.5 v. Nets | 128-109 | Win | 100 | 5 h 34 m | Show | |
The Brooklyn Nets are the top team in the Eastern conference and have a 1 1/2 game lead over the Philadelphia 76ers and 4 1/2 over 3rd place Milwaukee. That makes today's possible moves interesting by the Nets. They look to be without their three top stars tonight. First, James Harden is out with a hamstring injury. Then, Kyrie Irving is questionable with a groin injury that kept him out of the last game. Finally, they look to be resting Kevin Durant tonight. The Portland Trailblazers are in 7th place in the West, that's the first play-in position. They trail the final regular playoff spot, currently held by Dallas, by just one point. That makes this a big game for the Blazers. I'm going to take them here tonight, even though they are laying a few points on the road. Play Portland. |
|||||||
04-30-21 | Wizards -7 v. Cavs | Top | 122-93 | Win | 100 | 7 h 5 m | Show |
As we enter the final games of the NBA regular season the Washington Wizards hold onto that last play-in position at 10th place. They lead 11th place Chicago by 2-games and trail 9th place Indiana by one game. The Wizards have been hot, going 9-1 over their last 10 games. The Wizards are 6-1 ATS in their last seven road games and 8-2 ATs in their last 10 overall games. The Cleveland Cavaliers won't be going anywhere this postseason. The Cavs are in 13th place in the East and seven games back of Washington. The Cavs are 1-5 ATS in their last six games as a underdog and 0-4 ATS their last four overall. Washington has more to play for and right now are one of the hottest teams in the NBA. Play Washington. |
|||||||
04-30-21 | Cubs v. Reds -120 | 6-8 | Win | 100 | 8 h 25 m | Show | |
The Chicago Cubs continue their road trip here on Friday as they open a series against the Cincinnati Reds. The Cubs beat Atlanta on Thursday, 9-3. The run outburst snapped a two game scoreless streak by the Cubs as they lost three of four in Atlanta. The Cubs start Jake Arrieta who has five starts and a 3-2 record on the season. Arrieta has a 2.57 ERA and 1.179 WHIP. The Cincinnati Reds had Thursday off after losing to the Dodgers on Wednesday. They are 11-13 and one of the bigger hitting teams in baseball as they average 5.3 runs per game. They are also leading in home runs. Wade Miley makes his fifth start here today. Miley is 2-2 with a 2.45 ERA and 0.864 WHIP. I give both team and starting pitcher edges to the Reds here today. Play Cincinnati. |
|||||||
04-30-21 | Jets v. Canadiens -104 | 3-5 | Win | 100 | 7 h 34 m | Show | |
All Canadian North action here on Friday has Winnipeg taking on the Canadiens. Winnipeg is 3rd in the North with 57 points, three back of second place Edmonton. The Jets look to snap a five-game losing streak here tonight. The Montreal Canadiens are 4th in the North, six points back of the Jets and four points ahead of fifth place Calgary. Winnipeg had to play last night in Edmonton. During this five game losing streak they have scored more than one goal in one game. The other four combined they have three goals. I'm going to take the host in this one as the Jets are playing too poorly right now to back. Play Montreal. |
|||||||
04-30-21 | Leicester -110 v. Southampton | 1-1 | Loss | -110 | 2 h 26 m | Show | |
The lone game on the England Premier League here today has Leicester City taking on Southampton. Leicester City beat Southampton in the FA Cup Semi-finals just under two weeks ago, 1-0. Leicester City is now 4-2 over their last six in Premier League while Southampton is 2-4. Leicester City has done well on the road, only Manchester City has more points on the road this season. This looks to be another shutout win by City today. Take Leicester City. |
|||||||
04-29-21 | Flames +115 v. Oilers | 3-1 | Win | 115 | 11 h 40 m | Show | |
NHL North action here tonight has the Edmonton Oilers hosting the Calgary Flames. Calgary is 5-5 over their last 10 games and lost last time out to Montreal, 1-2. The Flames need wins and fast as time is running out on the regular season. The Flames sit in that 5th spot, trailing 4th place Montreal by six points. Edmonton is playing the 2nd of a back-to-back spot here tonight after winning at Winnipeg last night, 3-1. The Oilers are 2nd in the North and will try to hold that spot over third place Winnipeg. No chance to catch division leader Toronto who has seven more points. I like the Flames here tonight as Edmonton has to play back-to-back. Play Calgary. |
|||||||
04-29-21 | Red Sox v. Rangers +103 | 1-4 | Win | 103 | 6 h 8 m | Show | |
The Boston Red Sox have quietly improved to 16-9 after winning three straight games. They might be a bit challenged tonight though as they start Martin Perez. Perez is 0-1 after four starts with a 5.71 ERA and 1.672 WHIP. Perez can be wild, evidenced by his four walks in the last start and only three KO's. The Texas Rangers lost on Wednesday to drop them to 10-15 overall. They will start Kyle Gibson here tonight. Gibson has five starts and a 2-0 record with a nifty 2.31 ERA. At home, he has a 0.00 ERA in his two starts. I favor Gibson a lot here tonight and getting the Rangers as a small dog is a nice surprise. Play Texas. |

04-28-21 | Rockies v. Giants -147 | 3-7 | Win | 100 | 10 h 11 m | Show | |
The San Francisco Giants might be the surprise team so far this year as they are 15-8 entering Tuesday night's game, they have won two straight and have an excellent pitching staff. In fact, the Giants have the top starting staff in all of the Major Leagues this season. The Giants have allowed just 3.0 rpg this season. Tonight, they will start Alex Wood, who is 2-0 after his two starts. Wood has a 0.75 ERA and 0.417 WHIP as he's allowed just one run over his 12 innings. The Rockies are just 8-14 on the season and last in the NL West. Unlike the Giants, they allow a whopping 4.8 runs per game this year. The Rockies will start German Marquez tonight. He's 1-1 after five starts with a 3.45 ERA. Marquez has pitched well, but Wood has been much better, plus we are getting the hotter team at home also. Play San Francisco. |

04-28-21 | Avalanche v. Golden Knights -136 | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 10 h 5 m | Show | |
The Vegas Golden Knights and Colorado Avalanche are the top two teams in the West division. The Knights lead the division with 70 points and Colorado is right behind with 66 points and three games in hand. So these matchups in the final games could be what determines the team that wins the division. The Golden Knights have the best goals against in the NHL this year. They have two solid starting goalies and a load of talent. The Avalanche, who are 7-3-0 over their last 10 games, have speed to burn on this team. This is going to be a great matchup here tonight in Vegas. I'll take the host in this one. Play Vegas. |

04-28-21 | Spurs +4.5 v. Heat | Top | 111-116 | Loss | -103 | 9 h 36 m | Show |
The Miami Heat sit on one of the bubbles for the playoffs. The Heat are in 7th place, actually tied with Boston for that 6th playoff spot. Spots 7-10 are play-in spots and the Heat would much rather move into 6th instead of being in the 7-10 group. The Heat are coming off a loss and are 5-5 over their last 10 games. The San Antonio Spurs are in 9th place, again one of those 7-10 play-in positions. The Spurs trail 6th place Dallas by 2 1/2 games. They have also won three straight games and seven of their last 10. The Spurs have covered five of their last six games and are 4-0 their last four as a road dog. The Spurs have covered six of the last eight meetings with the Heat in Miami. I'll take the visitor in this game. Play San Antonio. |

The St Louis Blues hold the 4th and final West playoff spot. However, they hold just a one-game lead over 5th place Arizona. The Wild have been hot, winning seven straight games and going 8-1-1 over their last 10 games. The Blues have been inconsistent of late, going 5-5-0 their last 10. I like the Wild here tonight. They still have that 2nd place spot to play for. Play Minnesota. |

The Dallas Mavericks had to play last night in Sacramento and while the trip to Golden State isn't long, it's that dreaded 2nd game of a back-to-back spot here tonight for the Mavs. Dallas lost at the Kings last night, 106-113 and really only led once or twice early in the 3rd quarter and that was it. Dallas Forward Kristaps Porzingis has been out for a while with an ankle injury. He's listed as doubtful here tonight. The Golden State Warriors climbed over the .500 mark thanks to a two-game win streak. They are also 7-2 S/U and 6-4 ATS over their last 10 games. I'm taking the host here tonight as Dallas will be tired out from their game last night. Play Golden State. |

04-27-21 | Bucks v. Hornets +9 | 114-104 | Loss | -104 | 5 h 22 m | Show | |
Milwaukee Bucks are 3rd in the Easter Conference, 2 1/2 games back of the 76ers and 3 1/2 games back of first place Brooklyn. They lead 4th place New York by four games. The Bucks are not playing great, winning just five of their last 10 games. The Bucks coming off a loss at Atlanta Hawks on Sunday, 104-111. The Charlotte Hornets currently occupy 8th place and that's good for one of the play-in spots. However, they are just 1.5 games back of 6th place Boston and that is a playoff spot. The Hornets play well as a home dog, going 16-5-1 ATS their last 22 in that role. They are also 7-3 ATS overall their last 10 games at home. Getting lots of points tonight at home with Charlotte. I look for the Hornets to be in this game all the way. Play Charlotte. |

The Jays will start Trent Thornton here today. Thornton has just one start this season and that was two innings where he allowed two hits and not runs. Both teams are good under plays and that's what I'm going with here today. Play UNDER. |

The Minnesota Twins look to snap a 3-game losing streak here at Cleveland. The Twins are just 7-14 on the season and allowing 4.7 runs per game compared to just 4.2 they score. Kenta Maeda hopes to get back to more consistency here today. Maeda is 1-1, but has a 6.12 ERA over his four starts. He's coming off a bad start at Oakland where he went just three innings and allowed seven runs. The Indians have won two straight as they improved to 10-11 on the season. Cleveland will start Aaron Civale here today. Civale has four starts and a nice 2.42 ERA and 0.885 WHIP. Edges here to both the Indians and Civale. Play Cleveland. |

Rogers has four starts and has yet to allow more than two runs in any game. He has a nifty 1.64 ERA and 1.000 WHIP. Milwaukee counters with Corbin Burnes. Burnes is 2-1 after four starts with a 0.37 ERA and 0.329 WHIP. Barns has gone at least six innings in each of his four starts and has allowed just one run and that came in his first start. Since then he's allowed No Runs over his last 18 innings with 29 walks and no walks. Burnes looks like an early Cy Young candidate and today I'm playing the UNDER. |

04-26-21 | Suns v. Knicks +2 | Top | 118-110 | Loss | -107 | 8 h 29 m | Show |
The Phoenix Suns having an excellent season as they sit 2nd in the Western Conference, just two games back of the Utah Jazz and tied with the Clippers. The Suns have lost two games in a row on this East Coast road trip. The Suns won at Milwaukee and then at Philadelphia to open this road trip. However, then they lost at Boston 86-99 and then lost last game at Brooklyn 119-128. The NY Knicks are 4th in the Eastern Conference and look hold onto that position.

They have also covered 12 straight games. The Suns have struggled on the road of late, going 1-5-1 ATS in their last seven away games.

The Sacramento Kings see their playoffs hopes fading each day. The Kings are 12th right now, two spots back of the play-in slots. They trail these Warriors for that 10th spot by 5 1/2 games.

The Warriors have that 10th spot and a comfortable lead over 11th place New Orleans by four games. The Warriors have covered five of their last six home games.

East Division action today has the Boston Bruins playing at the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Bruins sit 4th in the East, with a six-point lead for that final playoff spot over the NY Rangers. The Pittsburgh Penguins are 2nd in the East with 65 points, two points ahead of third place NY Islanders. The Bruins could be without Center Patrice Bergeron today who has a lower body injury and is questionable. The Bruins had their six-game win streak snapped last time out at Buffalo, 4-6. They are now 7-3-0 over their last 10 games. The Penguins bring a 3-game win streak into today's contest and are 7-2-1 over their last 10 games.

They score well at 5.8 rpg, but they also give up a lot in 5.1 runs per game. The Cardinals have gotten back to the .500 mark at 10-10 after two straight wins over the Reds. The Reds will start Luis Castillo today. Castillo is 1-1 after four starts with a lofty 6.05 ERA. The Cardinals will turn to 3-0 Jack Flaherty. Flaherty has just a 3.80 ERA over his 21 1/3 innings. I'm sticking with the Cards here today against a slumping Reds tam. Play St Louis. |

The Jazz have gone UNDER their last four games as a favorite and 1-4 O/U in their last five overall. They are also 2-8 O/U in their last 10 games when having two days of rest. The last four meeting in Utah have gone under between these teams and that's what I'm going with here today. Play UNDER. |

The Monmouth Hawks head to Texas to take on the No 2 seeded Sam Houston State in the FCS playoffs. Both teams are undefeated, however Monmouth hasn't played in two weeks after having its last game cancelled. Sam Houston didn't encounter any Covid issues and got to a perfect 6-0 record. The Hawks are 5th in the nation ins scoring (41.7 ppg) and 10th in total defense. Sam Houston coming off a blowout in their last game over Incarnate Word, 42-14. This Sam Houston team has one of the best offenses inthe country as they rank third in scoring (44.8 ppg) and fourth in total defense. Sam Houston comes into this game with more games under its belt than thei opponent. Monmouth has a promising future, but in this game I'm going with Sam Houston. |

04-23-21 | Padres v. Dodgers UNDER 7 | 6-1 | Push | 0 | 21 h 51 m | Show | |
This series looks to be a good under series with these starting pitchers and very good pens. I had last night's game under and it got there even with the low 7.5 point total. Tonight I'm looking under again. The Dodgers are 6-15 O/U on the season while the Padres are 6-13 O/U. Two very good starters today as Yu Darvish starts for the Padres. Darvish has four starts and is 1-1 with a 2.55 ERA. He allowed four earned run in his opening game and since then only three total runs allowed over 20 innings of work. The Dodgers start veteran Clayton Kershaw. Kershaw is 3-1 after four starts with a nice 2.19 ERA and 0.973 WHIP. He's has 24 KO's and just three walks this year.

The Washington Wizards sit 10th in the Eastern Conference and are holding onto that final play-in spot for the playoffs. They sit just 1/2 game ahead of 11th place Chicago Bulls, so every game is vitally important to the Wizards. Washington has won six straight games and eight of their last 10 games. Oklahoma City is close to being out of the playoffs as they sit nine games back of that final play-in spot. The Thunder have lost 12 straight games. The Thunder are also 2-12-1 ATS their last 15 games. Washington needs this game and they are red got. Play Washington. |

The Nashville Predators are fighting for the 4th and last playoff spot in the Central Division. The Predators have 52 points, but hold just a 2-point lead over Dallas and 3-point lead over Chicago. The Blackhawks also need tonight's game if they hope to climb back into the playoff picture. The Hawks are 5-5-0 over their last 10 games while the Predators are 6-3-1. This is the third game in a row between these teams with Nashville winning at home in game one, 5-2 and then losing at Chicago in the last game, 5-4. I look for Nashville to bounce back here tonight.

The A's will face a Baltimore team that is 8-10 and coming off a Sunday loss. The A's will start Cole Irvin here today. Irvin is 1-2 after three starts with a 4.60 ERA. Irvin is coming off a very nice start against Detroit where he allowed just four hits and no runs for his first win. The O's will start Jorge Lopez today. Lopez is 1-2 after three starts with a 8.56 ERA and 1.317 WHIP. Hard not to back a red-hot A's team with the better pitcher on the mound today. Play Oakland. |

Arsenal is just 2-1-3 in their last six Premier league games while Everton is 1-3-2 their last six. Everton has done well on the road though with nine wins in their 15 away Premier League games.

The Padres hope their trip to LA turns out a bit better then their homestand against the Dodgers last week in which they won just a single game. Both these teams have been excellent under plays with the Padres having a 6-14 O/U record and the Dodgers at 6-12 O/U. This is in big part to excellent pitching staffs. The Pads start Ryan Weathers today. Weathers has just one start and he went 3 2/3 innings against the Dodgers with one hit and no runs. The Dodgers start Walker Buehler who has three starts with a 2.00 ERA and 1.000 WHIP. Both pitchers should hold well here today and turn over the ball to very good pens. Play the UNDER. |

Miami Marlins look to get back to the .500 mark here today as they play at San Francisco. The Marlins are 8-9 on the season and have a 7-9-1 O/U mark. The Giants are 11-7 after losing their last game. The Giants allow just 3.3 rpg while averaging just 3.7 rpg. No wonder they have a 6-12 O/U mark on the season. Daniel Castano starts for the fish with a 0-0 record after just one start. He started against these Giants last week and went five innings allowing three hits and one run. Aaron Sanchez will toe the rubber today for the Giants. Sanchez is 0-1 after three starts but has a nifty 2.45 ERA. Both pitchers are decent and the Giants like low scoring games. Play UNDER. |

04-22-21 | Pistons v. Spurs -8.5 | 91-106 | Win | 100 | 7 h 43 m | Show | |
The Detroit Pistons are dead last in the Eastern Conference of the NBA. The Pistons are 7 1/2 games back of that final play-in spot so likely they are done for the year. Not so for the San Antonio Spurs who hold the 10th and final play-in spot in the Western conference. The Spurs hold a 3 1/2 game lead over 11th place New Orleans and are tied with the Warriors for 9th place. The Spurs have covered four of the last five in this series and tonight they need to beat a last place team like Detroit if they hope to improve their standing. Play San Antonio. |

04-22-21 | Avalanche v. Blues +142 | 4-2 | Loss | -100 | 6 h 10 m | Show | |
The Colorado Avalanche have fallen to 2nd place in the West because first place Vegas has more games in hand and has won eight straight games. Still these two top West teams have meetings left that likely will determine the West Champion. St Louis is fighting for its life in the West with the Arizona Coyotes. The two teams keep flopping positions with the Blues in 5th right now, one point back of Arizona. The Blues have lost two straight and are 3-6-1 over their last 10. The Avalanche have won four straight and are 9-1-0 their last 10. Avalanche the better team and hotter team, but St Louis is a nice home dog here tonight and anything can happen in the NHL right now. I'll take a shot here with the live dog. Play St Louis. |

The Phoenix Suns are 2nd in the Western Conference, just 1 1/2 games back of the Utah Jazz. They play the 2nd of a back-to-back spot here on Thursday against the Boston Celtics. This is the third game of this Eastern road trip for the Suns. The Suns have won the first two games at Milwaukee and at Philly last night, 116-113. The Boston Celtics are holding onto that 6th playoff spot, just a half game ahead of 7th place Miami. Places 7 thru 10 are playin spots for the Playoffs and the Celtics would like to avoid dropping into that zone. Boston saw its six game win streak snapped last game at home vs Chicago, 9-102. Still, they have won eight of their last 10 games and are 6-3-1 ATS. I like the Celtics tonight. The Suns are playing back to back and after the Bucks and Sixers they could be wore out here tonight. Play Boston. |

04-22-21 | Flyers v. Rangers -169 | 3-2 | Loss | -169 | 5 h 10 m | Show | |
The New York Rangers are sitting just outside the playoff picture in the East with 52 points. They trail fourth place Boston by 6-points so that makes every game almost a must win for the Rangers with just about 10 games to play. The Philadelphia Flyers are in 6th place, five points back of the Rangers and likely won't have enough games left to get into the top four. Philly has lost two in a row and is 3-4-3 their last 10 games. The Rangers are 6-2-2 their last 10 games. This game means more to the Rangers who realistically can still make the playoffs. Play New York Rangers. |

04-22-21 | Yankees v. Indians -103 | 6-3 | Loss | -103 | 8 h 29 m | Show | |
To say the Yankees fans are frustrated with their team is a big understatement. The Yankees are out to a paltry 6-11 mark and the offense has been less than stellar as they average just 3.5 runs per game. The Yankees haven't scored more than three runs in any of their last five games and seven of their last eight. Domingo German starts for the Yankees today. He's 0-2 after two starts with a 9.00 ERA and 2.000 WHIP. The Indians dropped back to .500 after a loss last time out. Aaron Civale starts for the Tribe. He has a 3-0 record after three starts with a nice 2.18 ERA and 0.726 WHIP. Big difference between these starters here today and with the Yankees not finding their way yet - I'll take the host here. Play Cleveland. |

04-22-21 | West Bromwich Albion v. Leicester -149 | 0-3 | Win | 100 | 1 h 3 m | Show | |
Leicester City had a successful FA Cup appearance and now hopes that success will come over to the English Premier League. Leicester City won its first FA Cup in 52 years and now turn back to Premier League where they hold a 2-point lead for fifth place over Chelsea. Leicester City has not done real well in recent Premier league action with a 2-3-1 record compared to that of West Brom who is 3-2-1. Leicester City have dropped their last two Premier League games and that pressure is on here today. I like the FA Cup Champions who have some momentum to build on. Play Leicester City. |

The Blazers hold onto that last playoff spot, just 1 1/2 games ahead of 7th place Dallas and 1 1/2 games back of 5th place Lakers. The Nuggets coming off three straight overs where they scored 123, 128 and 139 points. The Blazers had to play last night against the Clippers, losing by just one point, 112-113 and going over the 221 total. The Blazer home games have averaged 227.8 ppg this season. Both these teams will be missing some key players but I don't see that stopping the scoring here. I'm playing OVER. |

04-21-21 | Canadiens v. Oilers -127 | 4-3 | Loss | -127 | 9 h 10 m | Show | |
The Edmonton Oilers are in 3rd place in the All Canadian North division. The Oilers are just one point back of 2nd place Winnipeg and five points back of first place Toronto. The Oilers have also won two straight games and are 6-2-2 over their last 10 games. The Montreal Canadiens are holding onto that 4th and final playoff spot in the North. The Canadiens have 47 points and lead fifth place Calgary by six points. They trail third place Edmonton by nine points. Not a lot for the Canadiens to play for here as they looks solidly in fourth place. However, the Oilers can climb into 2nd tonight and inch closer to that top spot in the North with a win here. Play Edmonton. |

04-21-21 | Hawks v. Knicks +1.5 | 127-137 | Win | 100 | 7 h 13 m | Show | |
Atlanta Hawks coming off a home game last night have to travel for their 2nd of a back-to-back spot here tonight at the Knicks. The Hawks have the fourth spot in the East playoff picture while the Knicks hold the 5th spot. New York is just a 1/2 game back of the Hawks. The Hawks have won two straight and five of their last six while the Knicks are 7-0 their last seven and 10-0 ATS their last 10. I like the rested Knicks here against a tired Atlanta team with third place on the line. Play New York. |
|||||||
04-21-21 | Warriors v. Wizards +2 | Top | 114-118 | Win | 101 | 19 h 25 m | Show |
Golden State looks to stay above the .500 mark tonight as they play at Washington. The Warriors are 5-1 S/U and ATS in their last six games. However, always tougher on the West teams playing these road trips to the East and this is game number five on the road for the Warriors. The Washington Wizards are just 24-33 on the season. However, they have been playing very well of late winning five in a row and seven of their last eight. They are also 7-1-1 ATS in their last nine games. Washington is close to those 7-10 slots that are NBA play-in games for the playoffs. Right now they are in contention with the Bulls as both teams have identical 24-33 records. Golden State has the 9th spot and that's one of those play-in positions. They they should hold a top 10 slot since their closest team to knock them out are the Pelicans who are four games back. I like the Wizards as this long Eastern road trip starts taking its toll on the Warriors. Play Washington. |
|||||||
04-21-21 | Nets v. Raptors -4 | 103-114 | Win | 100 | 6 h 13 m | Show | |
The Brooklyn Nets are 39-19 after winning last night at New Orleans, 134-129. The Nets have not won back-to-back games since April 7/8. Since then they have alternated win/loss. Now they have to play the 2nd of a back to back spot vs the Raptors. Toronto is just 24-34 on the season. The have won and covered their last three games, all at home in Florida. Toronto is 1/2 game back of 10th place and a play-in spot to the playoffs. The Nets are in 2nd place in the East and just 1/2 game back of the Sixers. I'll go against the Nets in their 2nd of a back to back spot here tonight and go with the desperate Raptors looking for just a chance. Play Toronto. |
|||||||
04-21-21 | Twins v. A's -108 | 12-13 | Win | 100 | 3 h 40 m | Show | |
The Minnesota Twins look to snap a 3-game losing streak here today at Oakland. The Twins have dropped to 6-10 on the season. They will start Kenta Maeda today who has three starts and a 1-1 record. Maeda has a 3.07 ERA and 1.705 WHIP. The A's are red hot, winning 10 straight games to improve to 11-7 on the season. Frankie Monta will start for the A's. Monta has a 2-1 record after three starts with a 4.91 ERA and 1.363 ERA. I will take the hot A's here tonight. Play Oakland. |
|||||||
04-21-21 | Giants v. Phillies UNDER 8.5 | 5-6 | Loss | -120 | 13 h 20 m | Show | |
The Giants beat the Phillies on Tuesday to improve to 11-6 on the season. The Giants have also been a great under team this year with 12 of their 17 games going UNDER. That is in big part to an excellent pitching staff that has allowed just 2.9 runs per game. Anthony Desclafani has three starts for the Giants with a nifty 1.06 ERA and 1.059 WHIP. He's allowed just two earned runs over his last 17 innings. The Phillies dropped to 8-9 with their loss on Tuesday. The Phils send Zach Eflin to the hill today. Eflin has three starts and is 1-0 with a 3.15 ERA and 0.950 WHIP. I like this game to go under here early on Wednesday. Take UNDER. |
|||||||
04-20-21 | Brewers +102 v. Padres | 6-0 | Win | 102 | 12 h 38 m | Show | |
Milwaukee Brewers beat the Padres on Monday night and that lifted their record to 9-7 on the season. The Brewers have had excellent pitching, allowing just 3.3 runs per game. They have a excellent pitcher toeing the rubber here today in Corbin Burnes. Burns has a 1-1 record after three starts with a 0.49 ERA. He allowed one run in his opening start and since then no runs over his last 12 innings with just three hits, 19 KO's and no walks. The Padres of have slipped of late after losing two of three to the Dodgers and then opening with a loss in this series. They have dropped to 10-8, but also have a excellent pitching staff which allows just 3.3 runs per game. Chris Paddock starts tonight for the Pads with a 1-1 record after three starts and a 4.15 ERA. I really like the Brewers pitcher who has been amazing with his control and just not giving up runs. Play Milwaukee. |
|||||||
04-20-21 | Magic v. Hawks -12.5 | Top | 96-112 | Win | 102 | 5 h 45 m | Show |
East Action here in the NBA tonight as we get closer to the end of the season. Great situation here on the hard court tonight with one of these teams needing this game while the other is just playing out the season. The Atlanta Hawks holding onto one of those postseason spots as they are 4th in the East. However, this game is very important to them as they sit just 1/2 game away from being in that play-in spot. The Hawks don't want that so look for a full effort here tonight against the Magic. The Magic won't be going to the postseason as they sit next to last in the East. They have also lost two straight and eight of their last 10 games. Hawks can ill afford to let these kind of games get away from them. Play Atlanta. |
|||||||
04-20-21 | Blue Jays -101 v. Red Sox | 2-4 | Loss | -101 | 4 h 14 m | Show | |
Toronto Blue Jays look to get back to the .500 mark as they have dropped to 7-9 after losing two straight games. The Jays are only averaging 4.1 runs per game but they are allowing just 3.6 rpg. Hyun-Jin Ryu gets the start for the Jays today. Ryu has a nifty 1.89 ERA over his first three starts. He's allowed just four total runs and none in his last start. Eduardo Rodriquez starts for the Red Sox. Rodriquez has two starts and is 2-0 with a 3.60 ERA. Two good pitchers, but I favor Ryu in this matchup. Play Toronto. |
|||||||
04-20-21 | Devils v. Penguins -1.5 | 6-7 | Loss | -101 | 4 h 13 m | Show | |
NHL getting close to the end of the regular season. The New Jersey Devils are next to last in the East and very close to elimination from the postseason. They are just 1-8-1 in their last 10 games and have lost six straight games. Won't get any easier tonight at Pittsburgh. The Penguins are 3rd in the East with 59 points and just one point back of 2nd place Islanders and three points back of the 1st place Washington Capitals. These games big for the Penguins as they look to move up in the East. Play the Penguins on the goal line. |
|||||||
04-19-21 | Dodgers v. Mariners OVER 8 | 3-4 | Loss | -116 | 11 h 19 m | Show | |
Despite losing on Sunday to the Padres, the Dodgers still have the best record in baseball at 13-3. Thanks in large part to their +38 run differential. The Dodgers have scored 90 runs in their 16 games, second only to the Cincinnati Reds. The Seattle Mariners have been a surprise thus far, as they lead the AL West with a 10-6 record. The M's have won seven of their last 10 games. All this despite giving up more runs then they have scored. Dustin May starts for the Dodgers today. He's 2-0 in his two starts with a 1.74 ERA. The M's will start Justus Sheffield who is 0-1 after his two starts. Sheffield has a 4.91 ERA. Might get ugly against this great hitting Dodgers team today for Sheffield. I'm going to play OVER. |
|||||||
04-19-21 | Grizzlies v. Nuggets -7 | Top | 137-139 | Loss | -112 | 10 h 20 m | Show |
As we get toward the end of the regular season some teams still need wins and others are just playing it out. The Memphis Grizzlies are holding onto that 8th and final playoff spot, two games ahead of the San Antonio Spurs. The Denver Nuggets are in 4th place, just 1 1/2 back of the Suns and three back of the Jazz. The Grizzlies have won two straight games and covered four straight after Saturday's win at Milwaukee, 128-115. Denver has also won and covered two straight. The Nuggets are also 10-2 S/U and 8-4 ATS over their last 12 games. Both teams can use wins here tonight, but in the high altitude I'll take the host here. Play Denver. |
|||||||
04-19-21 | Wild -143 v. Coyotes | 5-2 | Win | 100 | 10 h 18 m | Show | |
Last stretch of the NHL regular season and these West teams both looking for wins. The Minnesota Wild are in 3rd place with 57 points and look pretty solid at that place. However, the Arizona Coyotes are in 4th place just one point ahead of St Louis and four points ahead of San Jose for that final playoff spot. The Coyotes are just 4-6-0 over their last 10 games while the Wild have won three straight and are 6-3-1 over their last 10. I like the Wild, they are a solid team with a pair of excellent goaltenders. Play Minnesota. |
|||||||
04-19-21 | Suns +2.5 v. Bucks | 128-127 | Win | 100 | 9 h 19 m | Show | |
The Milwaukee Bucks not having their success from last year, but they are still 3rd in the Eastern Conference, just 2 1/2 games back of the Nets and four games back of the 76ers. They will host the Phoenix Suns here tonight. The Suns are 2nd in the NBA Western Conference and just 1 1/2 games back of leader Utah. The Suns have won eight of their last 10 games. The Suns are 12-5 ATS on 1 day rest. They are also 43-21 ATS over their last 64 overall games. The Bucks are just 7-15 ATS over their last 22 games on 1 day rest. They are also 3-12 ATS in their last 15 games against a team with a win percentage of 60% or more. And, they have failed to cover any of their last five home games. Suns are 5-2 ATS in their last seven trips to Milwaukee. I'll take the visitor here tonight. Play the Suns. |
|||||||
04-18-21 | Rockets v. Magic UNDER 220.5 | Top | 114-110 | Loss | -107 | 6 h 55 m | Show |
Houston has just 14 wins on the season and 42 losses so no postseason for the Rockets. They have also lost five straight and 10 of their last 11 games. The Orlando Magic will also miss the playoffs this season with a 18-38 record. The Magic have won just one of their last eight games. The Magic have gone under in seven of their last nine games when the favorite. They are also 2-5 O/U in their last seven as a home favorite. Two bad teams here tonight I'll stick with the UNDER as teams like this begin to play more bench players and shut down for the season. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
04-18-21 | Maple Leafs v. Canucks OVER 6 | 2-3 | Loss | -123 | 8 h 57 m | Show | |
The Toronto Maple Leafs look to bounce back here tonight after a 2-5 loss to the Winnipeg Jets. Vancouver finally back on the ice after a lengthy Covid protocol. They haven't played since a March 24th loss to Winnipeg, 1-5. Rust will surely play a part on the Canucks side, especially on defense and in goal tending. It's difficult to simulate game conditions after such a long layloff. This should be a high scoring game. Play OVER. |
|||||||
04-18-21 | Astros v. Mariners OVER 9 | 2-7 | Push | 0 | 5 h 59 m | Show | |
Houston got back to the .500 mark at 7-7 after their win over Seattle on Saturday. They are 9-5 O/U thanks to an offense that averages 5.0 rpg. Jake Odorizzi hasn't pitched well for the Astros with a 0-1 record and 13.51 ERA with 2.102 WHIP. Seattle is 9-6 despite allowing more runs per game (4.7) then they score (4.2). Nick Margevicius starts today with a 0-0 record after one start. He went just 3 innings against the Orioles, allowing six hits and six runs. I'm taking the OVER between these teams today. Play OVER. |
|||||||
04-18-21 | Southampton v. Leicester +102 | 0-1 | Win | 102 | 2 h 20 m | Show | |
The second of the FA Cup semifinals here tonight at Wembley stadium. Leicester City is in the top four of the Premier league and sitting very nicely there. Southampton has nothing other than this FA Cup for the rest of the season. Leicester City is 4-0 in their last four FA Cup games and 3-2-1 in overall competitions. Southampton is also 4-0 in their last four FA Cup matches and 3-3 in their last six overall. Leicester City a small dog here on the money line and I like that since they are the better team of late. They have lost two straight to Southampton in FA cup action and I see that stopping here. Play Leicester City. |
|||||||
04-18-21 | Diamondbacks v. Nationals OVER 8.5 | 5-2 | Loss | -120 | 2 h 54 m | Show | |
Two teams struggling out of the Game are the 5-10 Arizona Diamondbacks and the 5-7 Washington Nationals. The Diamondbacks have lost the first two games of this series. They allow a whopping 5.4 runs per game this year. The Nationals are scoring 3.7 RPG while allowing 4.7 RPG. Madison Bumgarner struggling for the D'backs after three starts. He has a 11.19 ERA and 2.195 WHIP and has allowed at least five runs in each start. Stephen Strasburg also struggling after two starts with a 6.30 ERA and 1.60 WHIP. He allowed seven earned runs in his last start at St Louis. Two poor pitchers and two teams allowing a lot of runs here. Play OVER. |

04-17-21 | Warriors v. Celtics -4.5 | Top | 114-119 | Win | 100 | 9 h 51 m | Show |
The Golden State Warriors have climbed back to the .500 mark after winning four straight games and five of their last six. They have also covered five of their last six. They have to make the long Eastern trip to Boston to play the Celtics today. The Celtics are 30-26 after a West road trip that saw the team go 3-0 both S/U and ATS. They are coming off a win at the Lakers, 121-113. Boston has been hot, winning five straight and seven of their last eight games. Golden State is just 2-7 in their last nine games as a dog and 2-5 ATS in their last seven road games. Boston is 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 games vs the Warriors. Play Boston. |
|||||||
04-17-21 | Orioles v. Rangers -134 | 6-1 | Loss | -134 | 7 h 15 m | Show | |
Both these teams come into today's contest with 6-8 records, with Baltimore winning on Friday over the Rangers to take game 1 of this series. These teams are pretty even, both averaging 4.1 rpg and just .2 rpg separating what they allow. Difference here today are starters. The O's have Dean Kremer on the hill for his third start. He's 0-1 with a 10.50 ERA, allowing seven runs over just six innings. Conversely, Dane Dunning has been very good in his two starts for the Rangers, allowing just one run over his nine innings of work for a 1-0 record. I like Dunning here today. Play the Texas Rangers. |
|||||||
04-17-21 | Blues -132 v. Coyotes | 2-3 | Loss | -132 | 6 h 19 m | Show | |
As the NHL enters the final leg of the regular season the NHL West St Louis Blues are fighting for that final playoff spot. The Blues are 4th right now, but hold just a one point advantage over Arizona and three points over San Jose. That makes today's game with the Coyotes huge in the playoff hopes of these teams. The Coyotes have lost five straight games as they come into tonight's contest. The Blue are not playing well either with a 3-6-1 record their last 10. This is a tough spot for both teams and very important. I'll take the Blues here today as the Coyotes look to be self destructing. |
|||||||
04-17-21 | Jazz v. Lakers UNDER 214.5 | 115-127 | Loss | -100 | 5 h 51 m | Show | |
Both teams missing key players here today. The Lakers continue to be without Lebron James and Anthony Davis. But now the Utah Jazz will be without guard Donovan Mitchell, who is out with an ankle injury. Mitchell averaged 26.4 ppg on the season. The Jazz have gone under in four of their last five road games. The Lakers have gone under in six of their last seven home games and five of their last six overall. With key players missing today, I'm going UNDE |
|||||||
04-17-21 | Braves -114 v. Cubs | 4-13 | Loss | -114 | 2 h 30 m | Show | |
The Chicago Cubs have not had this bad a hitting team in over a century, as the club just can't seem to do much right. Despite that, they somehow have five wins to go with their eight loss. They have lost two straight games scoring just two total runs and allowing 12 runs. The Cubs have scored more than three runs just one time (4 runs) since April 5th. The Braves have won two straight games, improving to 8-6 on the season. They will start Huascar Ynoa today. Ynoa has two very good starts under his belt, allowing just one total run over 11 innings with 15 KO's and just two walks. Can't say the same for Cubs' starter Trevor Williams. Williams is 1-1 but has allowed seven runs over 9 1/3 innings (6.75 ETA) and has a 1.715 WHIP. Can't play the Cubs the way they are hitting and with today's starter. Take Atlanta. |
|||||||
04-17-21 | Blue Jays v. Royals UNDER 7.5 | 5-1 | Win | 100 | 2 h 21 m | Show | |
Game one of a doubleheader here on Saturday between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Kansas City Royals. The Blue Jays are 6-7 on the season after Friday's loss to the Royals. They will send Dylan Cease to the hill today. Cease has pitched well with a 3.85 ERA over his two starts, but has no record to show for it. The Kansas City Royals are 4-6-1 O/U on the season and today they will send Mike Minor to the hill. Minor is 1-0 with a 4.50 ERA and 1.30 WHIP. Minor is coming off a 4 inning start at the White Sox, allowing just one run over his four innings. I like this game to go UNDER here today, keeping in mind that the game is 7 innings and not nine. |
|||||||
04-17-21 | Manchester City v. Chelsea UNDER 2.5 | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 1 h 39 m | Show | |
FA Cup semi finals here today from Wembley Stadium has Manchester City taking on Chelsea. Chelsea lost in last year's FA Cup final to Arsenal as they look to get there again this year. The mountain is tall as they play the best team in England and one of the best in the world in Manchester City. Both teams have looked very good in recent form going 4-0 in FA Cup with Chelsea 4-2 overall and Manchester City 5-1 overall in their last six matches. These teams are both playing very well so picking a side is tough here. For me, I'm looking for a hard fought match with maybe even a clean sheet on one side or the other. Play the UNDER. |
|||||||
04-16-21 | Dodgers v. Padres UNDER 8 | 11-6 | Loss | -103 | 10 h 38 m | Show | |
The NL West showdown we've been waiting for is here as the 11-2 LA Dodgers take on the 9-5 San Diego Padres. Yes, it's early in the season, but this should be an excellent series. Both teams getting excellent pitching as the Dodgers allow just 3.2 rpg and the Padres 2.9 rpg. The Dodgers will start Walker Buehler tonight. He's 1-0 after two starts with a nifty 1.50 ERA and 0.8333 WHIP. The Padres counter with first time starter Ryan Weathers. For me, I'm looking at a pitchers series here and tonight I'll start with the UNDER |
|||||||
04-16-21 | Sharks v. Wild UNDER 6 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 8 h 36 m | Show | |
NHL entering the home stretch of the regular season and two teams both in need of a win play here tonight. The San Jose Sharks are 6th right now and need to get to that 4th place slot if they want to make the postseason. The Sharks have 40 points and are just four points back of 4th place St Louis, so it's well within their reach. The Minnesota Wild have 53 points and a solid hold on third place, seven points back of Vegas for 2nd place and nine points ahead of fourth place St Louis. San Jose has lost three straight games and scored just three total goals in those games. In face, they have just four goals in four of their last five games. I'm looking at a defensive battle here tonight. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
04-16-21 | Magic v. Raptors UNDER 212.5 | Top | 102-113 | Loss | -104 | 4 h 14 m | Show |
The Orlando Magic snapped a six-game losing streak last time out on Wednesday at Chicago, 115-106. It was also just their 2nd cover in their last five games. The Toronto Raptors also snapped a 2-game losing streak on Wednesday at home over the Spurs. 117-112. They are just 2-4 S/U and ATS in their last six games. Toronto has now gone under in their last four games as a favorite. They are also 8-18 their last 26 as a home favorite. I'm taking the UNDER here tonight. |

04-16-21 | Indians v. Reds -115 | 3-10 | Win | 100 | 7 h 39 m | Show | |
Interleague Rivalry game here as the Reds host the Indians in a battle for Ohio. Both teams with identical 7-5 records, though the Indians come into this game off a win over the White Sox while the Reds dropped two straight to the Giants. Logan Allen starts for the Tribe with a 2.70 ERA after two starts and a 1-1 record. He has just eight KO's over 10 innings with five walks. The Reds start Jeff Hoffman who is 1-1 after two starts with a 3.86 ERA. Looks like a nice rivalry here tonight, but I give the edge to the Reds. Play Cincinnati. |
