09-09-19 | A's v. Astros -172 | 0-15 | Win | 100 | 7 h 34 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Fiers last suffered a loss on May 1 at Boston and got some help from the offense on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Angels, when he allowed four runs and seven hits in five innings but escaped without a decision. The Florida native failed to complete six innings in any of his last three outings but came out with a win in two of those turns. Fiers surrendered four home runs on six hits in six innings against Houston on Aug. 15 but did not factor in the decision in a game Oakland won 7-6. Greinke suffered his first loss since joining the Astros when he was reached for four runs and eight hits in six innings at Milwaukee on Tuesday. The former Cy Young Award winner earned four straight wins to begin his tenure with Houston but is 0-1 in his last two turns while allowing a total of nine runs and 14 hits in 11 2/3 innings. Greinke had little trouble at Oakland on Aug. 18, yielding one run and four hits in seven frames to earn a win. In addition, Fiers' YTD numbers against the Astros are poor. He has not won (or lost) in four tries and has a 6.14 ERA. Greinke is 7-2 lifetime vs. Oakland (17 starts) w/ a 2.97 ERA. Houston is a ridiculous 27-2 at home vs. division opponents as well. |

09-09-19 | Texans +7.5 v. Saints | 28-30 | Win | 100 | 5 h 2 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units New Orleans has dropped five straight season openers for SU and ATS and draws a tough matchup in the Texans, who captured the AFC South in 2018 and revamped their roster with a series of notable moves on cut-down weekend, including trading away former No. 1 overall pick Jadeveon Clowney. QB Watson is a gamer, meaning he steps up for big games. With Andrew Luck suddenly out of football the door is open for the Texas to take the division. |

09-08-19 | Bengals +10.5 v. Seahawks | 20-21 | Win | 100 | 28 h 24 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units The "Legion of Boom" is officially over, but man, they were something else (Sherman, Thomas, Chancellor, Browner, Thurman, & Maxwell). Made playoffs 7 of last 9 seasons, under Pete Carroll, & seems all the weight is now on QB Wilson. Bengals' new HC, Taylor takes over for Marvin Lewis, who led them for 16 years. But when you go 0-7 in playoffs, only so much patience. Despite it all, Cincy is 17-8-3 ATS in the month of Sept. |
|||||||
09-08-19 | Indians -152 v. Twins | 5-2 | Win | 100 | 2 h 9 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units The Cleveland Indians have split their first two games with the of a three-game series against the American League Central leading Minnesota Twins. The Indians won game one 6-2 but dropped game two 5-3 yesterday. The Indians offense is led by Francisco Lindor with a .297 batting average. Carlos Santana has hit thirty-two home runs and has driven in eighty-five. As a team, the Indians are hitting .251 and their opponents are hitting .240. Mike Clevinger will make the start for the Indians in the rubber game. He is 10-2 with a 2.71 ERA this season. |
|||||||
09-08-19 | Cubs +122 v. Brewers | 5-8 | Loss | -100 | 2 h 59 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Lester allowed six hits and four walks with nine strikeouts in six shutout innings of a 6-1 victory versus Seattle on Tuesday. The 35-year-old Washington native was also sharp in his previous start, yielding one run over six innings of a 4-1 victory over the Mets in New York on Aug. 29. Yelich is 6-for-16 versus Lester, who is 5-3 with a 2.10 ERA in 10 starts against the Brewers - 1-0 with zero earned runs allowed in two starts over 13 2/3 innings this season. Houser has yielded one earned run in six of seven starts since rejoining the rotation. The 26-year-old Oklahoma native's only blemish during that span was a 7-2 loss to Chicago at Wrigley Field on Aug. 4, when he permitted four runs and nine hits over five innings. Houser has a 1.29 WHIP and .252 batting average against with 93 strikeouts and 32 walks across 91 1/3 innings this season. |
|||||||
09-08-19 | Nationals -124 v. Braves | 9-4 | Win | 100 | 1 h 7 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Scherzer makes his fourth start since returning from a back injury that sent him to the injured list for almost a month, and he reached 90 pitches in six innings Tuesday against the New York Mets. The 35-year-old gave up four runs on five hits with one walk and seven strikeouts to New York, after surrendering only three runs on 10 hits with 11 strikeouts across 8 1/3 innings in his first two starts after coming back. Scherzer, who has not faced Atlanta this season, is 9-7 in 22 career appearances (20 starts) with a 3.76 ERA and 1.20 WHIP. Soroka, who leads the majors in homers allowed per nine innings (0.6), gave up two longballs Monday against Toronto, but earned his first victory since July 14 by allowing three runs on five hits with six strikeouts in five innings. The 22-year-old entered Saturday second in the NL in ERA, and since the All-Star break has pitched to a 2.70 ERA and 1.17 WHIP in 10 starts. Soroka, whose ERA is vastly higher at home (4.02 in 11 starts) than away (1.44 in 14 starts), is 0-1 in three starts this season against the Nationals with five runs allowed on 13 hits in 15 innings. |
|||||||
09-08-19 | Titans +6 v. Browns | 43-13 | Win | 100 | 25 h 29 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units The expectations are extremely high, as far as the Browns are concerned, as they captured the imagination of the NFL, with their vast improvement, coming from a combined 2-44 SU run, to last year's 7-8-1 record. Rookie QB Baker Mayfield, of course, was the catalyst. And his worth has actually risen, with the addition of HC Kitchens, WR Beckham, & RB Hunt, only increasing their expectations. But Titans, with a healthy Mariota, are a sneaky good outfit (got to divisional playoffs in '17). No pushovers. And their "D" line has improved. |
|||||||
09-08-19 | Rams v. Panthers | 30-27 | Win | 100 | 25 h 26 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Rams were just a few plays from being the defending Super Bowl champs, despite posting a mere 3 points. That impressive "D", who held the Pats to 13 points, has added Eric Weddle & Clay Matthews. Could work wonders with Wade Phillips' aggressive defensive philosophy. The #1 question with Panthers, of course is status of Cam's throwing shoulder. Losing LB Davis & DE Peppers, however, can't help. Rams the play. |
|||||||
09-08-19 | Ravens -6.5 v. Dolphins | 59-10 | Win | 100 | 25 h 15 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units For the first time since '07, Joe Flacco will not be under center as the Ravens kick off this season. But this franchise is firmly behind the electric Jackson, who led Baltimore to the playoffs once more, before being ousted at home by the Chargers. Not only did they lose a veteran on "O", also Weddle, who has been replaced by Earl Thomas. New coaching regime for the Fins. Now 24 different AFC East head coaches since Belichick started dominating the division. Ravens are 8-0 ATS vs Miami. |
|||||||
09-07-19 | Miami-FL v. North Carolina +5 | Top | 25-28 | Win | 100 | 47 h 47 m | Show |
Rating: 4 Unit NCAAF Game of the Week Extra week to prepare for 'Canes after loss (3-pt cover) to Florida (six lead changes), despite 94-50 rushing yard edge. Tars rode Brown's return to enviously balanced (238 rushing yards, 245 passing yards) win over South Caroline, with 213-yard edge. 'Heels just 8 points from 7-0 spread run. Again. |
|||||||
09-07-19 | LSU v. Texas +7 | 45-38 | Push | 0 | 46 h 50 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units This is a classic matchup, most notably in the Quarterbacking category, as both Texas, (with Ehlinger), & Lsu, (with Burrow), have 2 of the nation's top signal callers. And did they ever shine in their prospective openers. Ehlinger: 28-of-38 & 4/0 (in wipeout of LaTech); Burrow: 23-of-27, & 5/0 (all in first half, in demolition of Georgia Southern). In last year's bowls, these 2 were among the most impressive, with the Bayous destroying Central Florida statwise, & the Steers (+13) upsetting Georgia. The dog is 16-5 ATS in Longhorn games. We ride it again. |
|||||||
09-07-19 | Indians +147 v. Twins | 3-5 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 45 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Civale earned his second straight victory Monday when he held the Chicago White Sox to three runs (one earned) on seven hits and three walks over five innings. The 24-year-old Connecticut native has not given up more than two earned runs in any of his seven major-league starts and served up one homer in 41 2/3 innings. Rosario had a double in three at-bats versus Civale, who limited Minnesota to one run on four hits over six innings in a no-decision Aug. 11. |
|||||||
09-07-19 | Cardinals -141 v. Pirates | 10-1 | Win | 100 | 8 h 42 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Wainwright turned in a gem against San Francisco on Monday, scattering four hits over seven scoreless innings to reach double digits in wins for the 10th time in his career. The 38-year-old struggled in his previous two turns while allowing seven runs and 14 hits over 8 2/3 total innings. Wainwright had little trouble at home against Pittsburgh on Aug. 10, when he yielded one run and six hits in six innings to earn the win. |
|||||||
09-07-19 | Central Florida -10.5 v. Florida Atlantic | 48-14 | Win | 100 | 45 h 41 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units It didn't take long for the public to jump on the Knights, as a single digit chalk vs an outfit which enters off a trip to Ohio State, in a game that saw the Owls allow 4 TD passes in the first 8:10 (Fields for Haskins), while eventually covering the 27½ point spot in a 45-24 final, as new Buckeye HC Day then went to the running game, resulting in a 237-22 overland edge. The Knights have been spectacular, topping 37 points no less than 21 times since '17, with accompanying, 26-1 SU run (24-10 ATS). Check 338-4 rushing yard edge in their opener. |
|||||||
09-07-19 | San Diego State +9 v. UCLA | 23-14 | Win | 100 | 42 h 26 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Same as last year for these 2. Latest 'Tec dynamic RB Washington: just 2.5 yards per rush in 6-0 rout of Weber State. Dog is 13-1 ATS in San Diego State games, which is still seeking an offense. Bruins only 17 points from a 7-32 ATS run, as woes continue, with 12 first downs & a 200-yard deficit at Cincinnati. To make matters worse, note that Uclans host Oklahoma next week. Bruins as favorites? No. |
|||||||
09-07-19 | Yankees -113 v. Red Sox | 5-1 | Win | 100 | 5 h 50 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Happ is coming off a masterful performance against Oakland but did not factor in the decision after allowing only one hit over six scoreless innings. The 36-year-old alternated wins and losses over his previous six starts, one of which was a victory over Boston on Aug. 4, when he yielded four runs and seven hits (two home runs) over 5 2/3 innings. Happ, who is 2-0 with a 4.24 ERA against the Red Sox this season, has flustered Mookie Betts (8-for-42) and Bogaerts (6-for-39). |
|||||||
09-07-19 | South Florida v. Georgia Tech -6 | Top | 10-14 | Loss | -109 | 40 h 25 m | Show |
Rating: 3 Unit CFB Play of the Day Tech missed cover at Clemson on late 51-yard FG. A 411-157 rushing yard deficit for 'Jackets' formerly overpowering run game (#1 last year). Now 131-45 point deficit in L3 tilts. Nine returning Bull "O" players made little difference in the horrendous 0-point, 9-first down, 157-yard effort vs Wisconsin. |
|||||||
09-07-19 | Northern Illinois v. Utah -21.5 | Top | 17-35 | Loss | -106 | 40 h 31 m | Show |
Rating: 4 Unit NCAAF Mismatch of the Week Last week we described the Utes as "always there", & weren't they ever in 30-12 throttling of oncoming Byu, behind Huntley's 13-of-16, & 181 Moss rushing yards (35:58-24:02 time edge). Just 90 rushing yards, & 24 points for NIU vs Illinois State, including a 68-yard Bowers TD pass. Utes smother 'em. |
|||||||
09-05-19 | Packers v. Bears -3 | 10-3 | Loss | -115 | 4 h 46 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units This matchup was Khalil Mack's coming out party, as a Bear, when he completely dominated that SNF match up vs the Pack, injuring Rodgers in the process. Matt LaFleur takes over as Green Bay head coach, as not only did Packers lose McCarthy, but also veterans Matthews & Cobb. However, GB is always in the hunt with a healthy Aaron. Bears: 12-5 SU & ATS in '17, falling victim to Nick Foles' January magic. Have all the ingredients to continue up ticking |
|||||||
09-04-19 | Angels v. A's -152 | 0-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 54 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Sandoval (0-1, 5.24 ERA) comes in off his best start of his career, shutting out the Rangers over five innings last Wednesday. Previous to that he’d posted a 6.75 ERA. Roark (8-8, 4.04) is undefeated in Oakland this year, having beaten St. Louis, Houston and the Yankees. And despite being 0-1 vs. the Angels lifetime, note that Roark owns a minuscule 1.89 ERA in those contests. |
|||||||
09-04-19 | Padres v. Diamondbacks UNDER 8 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 8 h 24 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Padres' rookie right-hander Chris Paddack (8-7, 3.69 ERA) has been going through a rough stretch, but he held the Giants to one run over seven innings last time out. In two starts against Arizona this season, Paddack has allowed only two runs over 11 1/3 innings of work. As for Arizona starter Zac Gallen (2-4, 2.79 ERA), this will be his first career meeting with the Padres and the right-hander has allowed just eight runs in five starts since joining from Miami. The under is 8-2-1 in Diamondbacks last 11 games vs. a right-handed starters. While the under is 6-2-1 in Padres last 9 road games vs. a right-handed starters. The under is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings. |
|||||||
09-04-19 | Phillies -138 v. Reds | 5-8 | Loss | -138 | 5 h 22 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units The familiar refrain of a lack of run support and a leaky bullpen was once again heard by Nola, who received a no-decision after his one-run, four-hit performance against the New York Mets on Friday turned into an 11-5 loss by Philadelphia. The 26-year-old also walked away without a decision in his last encounter with Cincinnati on June 9 after allowing three runs on four hits in 6 2/3 innings. Joey Votto (0-for-13) and Eugenio Suarez (2-for-12) have struggled considerably versus Nola, who sports a 2-1 mark with a 2.86 ERA and 0.89 WHP in five career starts against the Reds. Bauer allowed six runs on four innings of a 10-6 loss at St. Louis on Saturday to see his losing streak extend to four games and his ERA balloon to 8.40 in six starts since being acquired from Cleveland at the trade deadline. The 28-year-old was taken deep twice to lift his home run total to six in his last five trips to the mound. |
|||||||
09-03-19 | Rockies v. Dodgers -1.5 | 3-5 | Win | 100 | 6 h 5 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Rockies' right-hander Chi Chi Gonzalez (0-6, 8.07 ERA) has been as poor in his nine outings this season as the record and ERA would suggest. Last time out, Gonzalez was tagged with seven runs on as many hits while recording just two outs. He has made eight starts this year, and the Rockies have failed to cover the runline in all of those games. As for Dodgers starter Julio Urias (4-3, 2.53 ERA), he has made just six starts this year, but Urias has put in plenty of work as a reliever and a sub-three ERA over 67-plus innings of work is impressive. |
|||||||
09-03-19 | Angels v. A's -164 | 5-7 | Win | 100 | 6 h 5 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Fiers permitted one run, eight hits and two walks over 5 1/3 innings of a 2-1 victory at Kansas City on Aug. 27. The 34-year-old Florida native, who pitches on six days of rest for the first time since the All-Star break, has allowed more than three runs only once during his unbeaten streak. Albert Pujols is 7-for-28 with two home runs versus Fiers, who is 6-4 with a 4.84 ERA in 13 games (12 starts) against the Angels - 3-0, 1.93 in three turns this season. |
|||||||
09-03-19 | Phillies -102 v. Reds | 6-2 | Win | 100 | 2 h 28 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Alex Wood was scratched Monday with a reoccurrence of his back issue, leaving Sims to make his third start of the season after throwing 36 pitches in relief Saturday in St. Louis. The former first-round pick gave up two runs to the Cardinals in that outing and hasn't fared particularly well as a starter either in 2019, going 1-1 with a 6.75 ERA. J.T. Realmuto is 4-for-5 with a homer and a double versus Sims, who permitted four runs over 6 1/3 innings in his only career start against Philadelphia in 2017. |
|||||||
09-02-19 | Notre Dame -20 v. Louisville | Top | 35-17 | Loss | -105 | 148 h 31 m | Show |
Rating: 4 Unit NCAAF Game of the Week We've never seen such a dramatic drop as these Cards are experiencing: -331½ points ATS in their last 27 outings (6-21). Another? Okay, Louisville allowing 57 ppg in its last 7 games. Irish got to Final Four, before being taken apart by Clemson. Return 7 offensive starters, including QB Book. A one-sided affair. |
|||||||
09-02-19 | Padres v. Diamondbacks -135 | 7-14 | Win | 100 | 5 h 24 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Leake is coming off his best start since being traded to the Diamondbacks after yielding a pair of runs in 7 1/3 innings to defeat San Francisco on Tuesday. He was 0-2 with an 8.02 ERA through his first four starts with Arizona. Manny Machado has a home run in three at-bats versus Leake, who owns a 3.30 ERA in eight career starts against the Padres. In addition, Leake is 8-5 with a 3.60 ERA in his home team-starts this season as opposed to 5-9 with a 5.91 ERA away in his team-starts this season while Quantrill is 5-9 in his overall team-starts this season. |
|||||||
09-02-19 | Rangers v. Yankees -200 | 7-0 | Loss | -200 | 5 h 47 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Minor is slumping of late and is winless in his last three starts, watching his ERA drift up from 2.90 to 3.25 in that span. The 31-year-old made his last two starts against the Los Angeles Angels and was reached for a total of 11 runs - 10 earned - on 14 hits and five walks in 12 1/3 innings. Minor is seeing the Yankees for the first time since Aug. 10, 2018, when he earned a win despite allowing four runs and six hits in 5 2/3 innings. Tanaka breezed through seven scoreless innings at Seattle on Tuesday, scattering three hits and walking one while striking out seven. The Japan native surrendered two or fewer runs in three or his last four outings and completed at least six innings in each of those four turns. |
|||||||
09-02-19 | Twins -185 v. Tigers | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 2 h 12 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Odorizzi allowed three or fewer earned runs in each of his last six starts and yielded two runs and five hits in six innings to earn a win at Chicago on Wednesday. The 29-year-old stuck out eight against the White Sox without surrendering a home run and kept the ball in the park in each of his last four outings. Odorizzi is 2-0 in two starts against Detroit this season, allowing a total of one run and six hits in 13 innings. |
|||||||
09-01-19 | Houston +24.5 v. Oklahoma | 31-49 | Win | 100 | 117 h 39 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Mighty Sooners are again figured among the elite squads, with their annually overpowering offense. Such is the case once more, despite the departure of QB Murray (OU's 2nd consecutive Heisman winner). Alabama transfer Jalen Hurts starts in place of Murray, & certainly had his moments with the 'Tide, but he just doesn't possess the pure passing ability of either Mayfield & Murray, which will be needed, as the Okie "D" allowed 454 ppg & 33 ppg in '18. Prime example is Sooners' 345-317 pt edge in their last 7 games. The Cougars are led by super QB King, who does it overhead, & overland leading the UH "O" to 41 or more points ten times LY |

09-01-19 | Mets -106 v. Phillies | 2-5 | Loss | -106 | 8 h 60 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Stroman fell to 1-1 in five starts since being acquired by the Mets after yielding four runs on six hits over six innings of a 5-2 setback Tuesday against the Chicago Cubs. The 28-year-old New York native was taken deep twice for the second time in three outings, however, after surrendering 11 homers in his previous 23 starts. Corey Dickerson is 10-for-27 with five extra-base hits versus Stroman, who sports a 2-0 mark with a 1.86 ERA and 0.83 WHIP in three career appearances (one start) against Philadelphia. In addition, Stroman has 2.91 ERA away this season while Eflin is 1-6 with a 8.62 ERA and 1.88 WHIP in his last seven overall team-starts, and 5 Ks with 6 BBs in his last three starts. |

09-01-19 | Orioles v. Royals OVER 9.5 | 4-6 | Win | 100 | 3 h 28 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Baltimore righty Aaron Brooks (4-7, 5.79 ERA) is coming off six scoreless innings of two-hit ball at Washington, but he's still 2-4 with an ugly 6.44 ERA in 11 outings (seven starts) on the road this season. As for KC lefty Danny Duffy, he will make his first start since going on the IL since Aug. 6. Duffy was smacked around for nine runs in 4 2/3 innings at Minnesota last time out and note that over is 12-5 in Duffy's last 17 home starts. Additionally, Baltimore's relievers are dead last in the majors with a 5.92 ERA, and KC's is not much better (27th) with a 5.06 ERA. In addition, the over is 3-0-1 in Orioles last 4 Sunday games, 4-1 in Royals last 5 Sunday games, and 5-1 in the last 6 meetings at Kauffman Stadium. |

09-01-19 | Reds v. Cardinals -151 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 2 h 55 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Mahle will be making his first start in the majors since July 19 when he gave up four runs in 5 1/3 innings in a no-decision against the Cardinals. He was placed on the injured list after that outing before making three starts in the minors, including one Monday in which he spun five scoreless innings. The 24-year-old has a 6.10 ERA in four career starts versus St. Louis. |

08-31-19 | Georgia -21 v. Vanderbilt | 30-6 | Win | 100 | 99 h 15 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Can't imagine any team being more frustrated than these 'Dawgs, who've suffered a pair of hairs-breadth losses to Alabama, in search of a national title, the past 2 years. They own the 'Dores, overland, & despite Vandy's decent play, not on Georgia plateau |

08-31-19 | Reds v. Cardinals -105 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 8 h 30 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Bauer has battled inconsistency since being acquired from Cleveland and was ripped for eight runs - seven earned - on eight hits and two walks over three innings at Pittsburgh on Sunday. The UCLA product has failed to complete five frames in three of his five starts with the Reds and is 1-3 with a 7.62 ERA since joining the team. Bauer has made one career start against the Cardinals, settling for a no-decision despite allowing just one run and registering 10 strikeouts over 7 1/3 innings while with the Indians. Hudson did not allow a run in any of his last three starts and surrendered a total of seven hits while striking out 13 batters over 18 2/3 innings. The 24-year-old has permitted more than three earned runs in just two of his 27 games this season and did not yield a home run in any of his last five turns. Hudson is 2-0 with a 3.71 ERA in three starts against Cincinnati in 2019, with one of the wins coming at home. |

08-31-19 | Twins -134 v. Tigers | 7-10 | Loss | -134 | 7 h 32 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Boyd is 0-4 over his last nine starts after a rough effort at Minnesota on Sunday when he served up two homers and allowed seven runs on four hits and five walks to fall to 6-6 lifetime against the Twins. It was the third time in four starts that he permitted at least five runs, a span in which he has been taken deep nine times. Boyd gave up three runs over seven innings in a no-decision versus the Twins on June 7. |
|||||||
08-31-19 | Brewers v. Cubs -152 | 2-0 | Loss | -152 | 3 h 46 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Davies has finished no more than five innings during a stretch of five straight losses, a span in which he has posted a 9.41 ERA. Included in the slump are two matchups with the Cubs, who got to the 26-year-old for 11 runs with four homers in nine total innings between the two outings. Davies had two solid starts versus Chicago earlier in the year and has a 3.87 ERA in 17 career meetings. Hamels is 1-1 with a 7.29 ERA in five August starts after missing all of July with an oblique strain, although most of the damage was done in his last road start during the stretch. He has allowed three runs or fewer three times this month, including five scoreless frames against the Brewers at home Aug. 3. Hernan Perez is 8-for-16 with three extra-base hits against the four-time All-Star, who is 8-3 with a 3.28 ERA in 18 career starts versus Milwaukee. |

08-31-19 | Toledo +12 v. Kentucky | Top | 24-38 | Loss | -105 | 92 h 49 m | Show |
Rating: 3 Unit NCAAF Play of the Day Kentucky is coming off 3 consecutive bowl campaigns, & rare 10-win season, but will be hard pressed to continue that performance, as they've lost a dozen starters, including record-setting RB Snell. Underdog is 18-6 ATS in UK games, & Rockets not only topped 50 points on 5 lined occasions in '18, but have been a staple for the last decade. All ingredients for a nail biter. |

Rating: 2 Units Can Luke & Co plug up that porous Rebel "D" which allowed 31+ points in 8 of its final 9 games? Ole Miss is on a brutal 1-9 spread run, but have recruited decently LA. Tigers averaging 42.6 ppg in their last 20 lined games, while covering 8-of-9 home games.

Rating: 4 Unit Inter-Conference Game of the Week Florida State on a steady decline (12-13 SU L2 years), with unthinkable 210-87 point deficit in their last 5 outings. Hornibrook or Blackman at QB? Broncos have said goodbye to QB Rypien (13,587 passing yards on 1,035 completions for his career), but Boise has been a steady force forever. Note visitor is 29-12 ATS in Bronco games. Take the points. |

08-30-19 | Oklahoma State -14 v. Oregon State | 52-36 | Win | 100 | 78 h 52 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Year after year, the Cowboys just continue on as an offensive powerhouse. Loss of QB Cornelius (4,394 yards in '18) hurts, & defense a concern. But opening against a Beaver team which has allowed 34+ points in 21-of-22 lined games certainly helps. And Oklahoma State's home field is of little help. Gundy replacing some offensive help, but a rout. |

08-30-19 | Rice v. Army -21.5 | 7-14 | Loss | -103 | 67 h 4 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units You have to go back decades to find the last time that the Cadets have been pegged as this much of a chalk, which naturally gives the public pause, despite their steady climb over the last 3 years, which have seen them come from a 2-10 record in '15, to 8-5 in '16, to 10-3 in '17, to 11-2 in '18 (never won 11 games, previously). Of course, they do it with a running game that forced overtime at Oklahoma, as a 31-pt underdog (339 RYs), & routed Houston, 70-14 in the Armed Forces Bowl (507 yds). Owl fans were expecting more, following three straight bowl seasons, but things have turned around, with a combined 6-31 in their 3 years since. Sure, it's heavy spot, but no letup with military teams, thus a continuation of upswing |

08-28-19 | Cubs v. Mets UNDER 7.5 | 10-7 | Loss | -109 | 5 h 22 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Going back to the start of July, there has been only one start for Hendricks where he gave up more than two runs. Syndergaard has a 1.89 ERA and 0.95 WHIP his previous three starts. It was a 5-2 win by the Cubs last night, the kind of score we're looking for again here and should get due to the better pitching matchup. Neither starter allowed a run in their last starts. Hendricks went seven and allowed three hits vs. San Francisco while Syndergaard went six and allowed just two hits vs. Cleveland. The Under is 8-2 in Hendricks' last 10 starts. The Mets have scored 1 or 2 runs in four of their last five games, but have also allowed three or less in five of their last seven. |

Houston's Martin Maldonado is 7-for-13 with four walks against Morton, who is 4-5 with a 5.74 ERA in 10 outings against the Astros. Verlander retired 27 of the 29 batters he faced but allowed two solo home runs in a 2-1 loss to Detroit on Wednesday, extending his winless streak to three starts (0-1) - all Houston losses. The 36-year-old Virginia native's first complete game of the season came with 11 strikeouts as he extended his franchise record of consecutive double-digit strikeout games to seven. Tampa Bay outfielder Austin Meadows went deep in the season opener versus Verlander, who is 9-4 with a 3.30 ERA in 19 starts against the Rays. |

Smith has allowed a career-high 23 homers on the season and he served up two homers while surrendering five runs in six innings at Atlanta last time out. As for Cincinnati starter Luis Castillo (12-5, 3.04 ERA), the right-hander is having a career year.

The two-time All-Star allowed just one run on four hits in six innings and struck out 10 for the second time in as many games in Tuesday's 3-2 victory versus San Diego. Gray owns a 1-0 record with a 3.38 ERA and 1.00 WHIP in three career starts versus Miami, although he received a no-decision on April 11 after scattering two hits over four innings. |

Paul Goldschmidt is 10-for-20 versus Gonzalez, who is 3-4 with a 3.11 ERA in 11 career starts against the Cardinals. In addition, Wainwright is 6-0 in career team-starts in Milwaukee, and 5-1 his last six away team-starts in August while Gonzalez is 2-6 his last eight team-starts in August, and 2-5 his last seven team-starts versus the Cardinals |

08-26-19 | Pirates v. Phillies -125 | 5-6 | Win | 100 | 8 h 20 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Philly should be able to score plenty of runs off Pittsburgh righty Joe Musgrove (8-12, 4.74 ERA) who has been lit up for 17 runs over his last four starts (7.71 ERA). Left-hander Jason Vargas (6-6, 3.99 ERA) will toe the rubber for the home team. He has made four starts since coming over from the Mets allowing two runs in three of them. The Phillies are 12-5 in their last 17 games following a loss. The Pirates are 6-20 in their last 26 road games vs. a team with a winning record and 2-8 in the last 10 meetings with Philadelphia. |

Juan Soto has six runs scored in the series while Howie Kendrick is 7-for-14 with six RBIs over a three-game stretch for the Nationals, who have scored at least seven runs 10 times during their 11-2 surge. Strasburg will be trying for the second time to obtain a career-high 16th win, getting a no-decision in his first attempt at Pittsburgh on Tuesday despite spinning seven scoreless innings. He has won 12 of his last 14 decisions, a run that began May 18 against the Cubs, whom he held to one earned run in eight innings of a 5-2 victory. The three-time All-Star, who needs nine strikeouts to reach 200 for the third time, has a 2.05 ERA in seven career starts against the Cubs. |

08-25-19 | Diamondbacks +108 v. Brewers | 5-2 | Win | 108 | 3 h 1 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Ray (back) will be activated off the 10-day injured list to make the start and is hoping to rediscover the form that saw him hold the Los Angeles Dodgers to two runs on as many hits over six innings in his last full start on Aug. 9. The 27-year-old owns 187 strikeouts in 142 innings this season and punched out two in as many innings before leaving with the back injury at Colorado on Aug. 14. Ray is seeing Milwaukee for the first time since 2017, when he tossed 13 2/3 scoreless innings across two starts against the Brewers. In addition, Ray has 35 Ks and 6 BBs in his last five starts, and is 6-2 in his last eight away team starts in August, and 3-1 versus NL Central this season. |

Rating: 2 Units Baltimore right-hander Dylan Bundy (5-13, 5.03 ERA) has a 4-6 career record with an ugly 6.39 ERA in 13 career outings against the Rays. Bundy was lit up for seven runs on eight hits in just one frame when he faced them on July 12 and he is 1-8 with a 5.16 ERA in 13 home starts on the season. As for the Rays, Diego Castillo (2-6, 3.44 ERA) will serve as the opener today, a strategy they've had plenty of success with. The Rays pitching staff has the second-best ERA across the major leagues this season and it should have no trouble to maneuver around Baltimore's lineup. |

08-24-19 | Arizona v. Hawaii +11 | 38-45 | Win | 100 | 11 h 11 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units The Wildcats highly-touted offense slipped a few notches in head coach Kevin Sumlin’s debut last season, no thanks to an injury-laden campaign from QB Khalil Tate. He’s healthy now and as a result, Arizona is expected to be drastically improved in 2019. Still, opening the season in Hawaii has not been an ideal location for visiting teams as they are just 3-3 SU and 0-6 ATS in this role since 2010. On the flip side, the deeply experienced Warriors improved from 3 wins to an 8-victory bowl unit last season and return 18 staters this year. Hawaii is also 6-0 ATS at home against Pac-12 opponents. |

The 30-year-old North Carolina native was 5-0 with a 2.61 ERA in his previous 10 starts since a setback at Dodger Stadium on June 20. The Oakland lineup is batting a collective .152 against Bumgarner, who is 5-2 with a 4.32 ERA in eight starts against the Athletics after a 3-2 victory Aug. 13 when he yielded one run while striking out nine in seven innings.

Rating: 2 Units Mets' righty Zack Wheeler (9-7, 4.40 ERA) is coming off a couple of subpar outings at Atlanta and KC, but he had turned in back-to-back scoreless outings spanning 15 innings of work prior to that. Wheeler is comfortable home at Citi Field, and note that under is 5-2 in his last 7 starts versus the Braves. As for Atlanta starter Max Fried (14-4, 3.84 ERA), the 25-year-old southpaw is 3-0 with a superb 2.01 ERA and 26 strikeouts through four starts (22-plus innings) this month.

Rating: 2 Units Kolby Allard (1-0, 6.60 ERA) takes the mound for Texas on Saturday, opposed by Chicago's Ivan Nova (9-9, 4.47 ERA). Allard was acquired from Atlanta on July 30 and the former first-round draft pick has made three starts as a Ranger. His worst came in his most recent outing, allowing seven runs (six earned) over five innings in Monday's no-decision against the LA Angels (Texas would win 8-7 in 11 innings). This will mark his first career appearance against the White Sox. Nova was just 4-9 (5.86 ERA) through 20 outings after losing 7-5 at KC on July 17, his first start after the break. However, he hasn't lost since, going 5-0 (team is 6-0), while allowing just four ERs over 42..1 innings for an 0.85 ERA. The White Sox have won 12 of their last 14 here at home vs the Rangers. |

Rating: 2 Units The first renewal of this classic in-state rivalry since 2013 takes place in Orlando where it appears that the Gators hold a huge edge in both head coach and quarterback experience. Florida will have its hands full matching last year’s production, though, especially with all six games away from the Swamp coming against bowl teams. Meanwhile, former defensive coordinator and new Miami head coach Manny Diaz will likely be searching for a go-to signal caller throughout most of the season. Look for UM’s 4th ranked defense last year to be the catalyst early on in 2019 for the Hurricanes, starting here, as Miami improves to 7-1 ATS in this series |

Rating: 2 Units German is riding a four-game winning streak after yielding two runs and five hits while striking out seven in seven innings of an 8-3 victory over Baltimore last Tuesday. The Dominican native hasn't lost in eight starts (7-0) with the no-decision (eight runs allowed against Minnesota) the biggest reason his ERA rose by 0.10 during that span. German is 1-0 with a 6.00 ERA in two starts versus Oakland with Khris Davis, Robbie Grossman and Jurickson Profar all taking him deep. Bailey permitted two hits and one walk with seven strikeouts in seven shutout innings of a 9-5 victory at San Francisco on Wednesday.

Rating: 2 Units Right-hander Joe Ross (3-3, 5.91 ERA) will take the ball for the Nats. He has posted an impressive 0.50 ERA over his last three starts, but the 26-year-old is the kind of pitcher that can blow up at just about any time. Note that Ross entered the month with a 9.85 ERA before hitting a hot streak. As for Pirates' starter Trevor Williams (5-5, 5.25 ERA), he was tagged with five runs on seven hits and five walks in five innings against the Angels in a contest the Pirates still won 10-7.

Rating: 2 Units Hyun-Jin Ryu (12-2, 1.45 ERA) will take the mound tonight for LA, opposed by Atlanta's Mike Foltynewicz (4-5, 6.24 ERA).

He missed one start earlier this month with neck stiffness but returned on Sunday against Arizona and gave up five hits with one walk and four strikeouts over seven shutout innings (LA won 9-3). Ryu has remarkably allowed two ERs or less in 20 of his 22 starts (Dodgers are 17-5 in those starts, giving him a moneyline mark of plus-$972, which ranks 5th-beat among all starters). |

08-14-19 | Mariners -142 v. Tigers | 2-3 | Loss | -142 | 7 h 7 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Gonzalez settled for a no-decision last time out against Tampa Bay despite matching his season high with nine strikeouts and limiting the Rays to a pair of runs and seven hits over 6 1/3 innings in his fifth straight quality start at home. He dominated the Tigers on July 27, permitting one run on six hits while striking out eight over seven innings. Gonzales is 1-1 with a 2.31 ERA against Detroit and has split 10 decisions with a 3.88 ERA on the road this year. Jackson will try to avoid following the same path as with Toronto earlier this season, when he won his debut before getting battered in losing each of his next four starts before he eventually was released. The 35-year-old journeyman, who has played for a record 14 different teams (including a previous stint with the Tigers), won his Detroit debut Friday by allowing one run over 6 1/3 innings. Domingo Santana has a pair of homers in four at-bats off Jackson. |

08-14-19 | Diamondbacks -145 v. Rockies | 6-7 | Loss | -145 | 3 h 56 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Robbie Ray handles the starting pitching duties this afternoon and he should keep the Rockies in check. The last time Ray started was last Friday and he led the team to a 3-2 win over the Dodgers. He's certainly a more reliable option than what Colorado has going today. Kyle Freeland has stunk up the joint in 2019 with a 7.06 ERA. He's been predictably worse at home with a 9.50 ERA and 1.80 WHIP. The Rockies have lost 33 of 46 overall and are going nowhere fast |

08-14-19 | Twins +105 v. Brewers | 5-6 | Loss | -100 | 2 h 3 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units Gibson saw his nine-game unbeaten streak come to an end on Thursday, when he permitted six runs - five earned - on four hits and six walks over 4 1/3 innings against Cleveland. The 31-year-old native of Indiana went 4-0 with a 3.74 ERA in his previous nine appearances, including one out of the bullpen. Mike Moustakas is 11-for-35 with three doubles and a homer versus Gibson, who is 1-2 with a 5.70 ERA in five career games against Milwaukee. Gonzalez is winless in his last six starts and has not received a decision in his last five outings after giving up one run and two hits over five innings against Texas on Friday. The 33-year-old Floridian has completed six innings just once this year and is 0-1 with a 2.91 ERA in four turns at home in 2019. Jason Castro is 2-for-4 with a pair of doubles against Gonzalez, who gave up four runs over 4 2/3 innings in a no-decision at Minnesota on May 27. |

Rating: 2 Units Bumgarner last suffered a loss on June 20 and was masterful against Philadelphia on Thursday, yielding one hit in seven scoreless frames to earn the win.

Bumgarner faced Oakland twice last season and allowed a total of four runs and five hits in 10 innings while striking out 10 and walking nine. In addition, Bumgarner is 2-0 in home career team-starts in this series, and 4-0 last four overall team-starts in August, and 6-1 with 3.00 ERA and 1.00 WHIP last seven overall team-starts. |

Rating: 2 Units Ross has been brilliant in three starts this season, improving to 2-1 with a 1.62 ERA as a member of the rotation after allowing three hits and registering five strikeouts over six scoreless innings to get the win Wednesday in San Francisco. The 26-year-old, who entered the season having started in 48 of his 51 career appearances, clearly has been uncomfortable coming out of the bullpen in 2019 as he has gone 0-2 with an 11.17 ERA in 18 relief efforts. Tucker Barnhart is 4-for-4 versus Ross, who owns a 1-0 record and 3.65 ERA in two career starts against Cincinnati. |

08-13-19 | Astros v. White Sox OVER 9.5 | 6-2 | Loss | -100 | 5 h 59 m | Show | |
Rating: 2 Units The over is 4-1 in the Houston Astros last five games and they have scored more than nine runs on average over their last 10 contests. White Sox rookie Dylan Cease (2-4, 6.00 ERA) is coming off five innings of two-run ball at Detroit, but note that he has allowed 12 runs over 17 innings in his first three starts home at Guaranteed Rate Field. The Astros counter with Zack Greinke (11-4, 3.08 ERA) who was charged with five runs in six innings against Colorado on Tuesday in his Houston debut. Coming from the National League, Greinke found it difficult to adjust to the American League. The team still won 11-7, but there should be plenty of runs for both teams here in the first game of a double-header this afternoon. ' |
