07-01-21 | Giants -136 v. Diamondbacks | 3-5 | Loss | -136 | 11 h 35 m | Show | |
Giants. Best Bet. Game 913. 6:40 pm pst. San Francisco has dropped their last three and still sits atop the NL West. Arizona is in a four-game slide and dwells in the division cellar with the worst record in all of baseball. The Giants have dominated the Diamondbacks, winning all six meetings this season and nine straight going back to last season. Cueto (6-3, 3.63) and Kelly (4-7, 4.73) will take the hill here. Cueto is 11-3 with a 3.21 ERA in 19 career appearances vs. Arizona. Kelly is 0-1 with a 6.00 ERA in two starts vs. San Fran in 2021. The Giants, both at the plate and on the mound, rank among the best in the Majors. The D-Backs are not just struggling, their numbers are downright atrocious, ranking 19th in scoring and 29th in pitching. San Francisco is 4-0 L4 at Arizona, 9-0 L9 following an off day, and 4-1 L5 as a road favorite. Take the Giants. Thank you. |

07-01-21 | Hawks v. Bucks UNDER 215 | 112-123 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 19 m | Show | |
Under in the Hawks/Bucks matchup. VI MOVE. Games 541/542. 5:35 pm pst. Trae Young and Giannis Antetokounmpo are both hampered and listed as questionable and doubtful (check status on both). Whether one or both play or not, prompts us to look at an angle of a lower scoring contest. The last three meetings all went under the total. With the series tied, both teams will rely on their defenses. Expect a much slower pace here. The under is 5-1 L6 meetings, 7-1 in the Hawks L8 overall, and 8-2-1 in the Bucks L11 overall. Take the under. Thank you. |

06-30-21 | Suns v. Clippers +1 | 130-103 | Loss | -115 | 10 h 14 m | Show | |
Clippers. WCF GAME 6 WINNER. Game 532. 6:00 pm pst. The Clippers seem to play their best basketball when their back is against the wall. Three times this postseason Los Angeles has faced elimination and beat it. The last several meetings this round, they have frustrated Phoenix, holding the Suns to 92, 84, and 102 points. The Clippers are one of the toughest teams in the NBA at home. They are 10-2 ATS L12 at home vs. the Suns, 5-1 ATS l6 overall at home, 7-2 ATS L9 on one days rest, and 7-2 ATS l9 overall. Take Los Angeles. Thank you. |

06-30-21 | Twins v. White Sox -124 | 3-13 | Win | 100 | 10 h 11 m | Show | |
White Sox. WWW. Game 972. 5:10 pm pst. The White Sox have taken six of seven meetings with their division rivals in 2021. Chicago continues to play solid baseball while Minnesota just can’t seem to get into any rhythm. Ober (0-0, 4364) and Cease (6-3, 3.81) are scheduled starters here. In Ober’s five turns this season, he has averaged just over 4.0 IP per putting. Well, this then leaves the team in the hands of one of the Majors’ worst bullpens. The Twins are 0-5 L5 at the White Sox and 3-11 L14 as road ‘dog. The White Sox are 44-20 L64 vs. the AL Central and 41-14 L55 vs. teams with a losing record. Take Chicago. Thank you. |

06-29-21 | Bucks v. Hawks UNDER 219 | 88-110 | Win | 100 | 10 h 41 m | Show | |
UNDER in the Bucks/Hawks matchup. ECF GAME 4 WINNER. Games 521/522. 5:35 pm pst. Whether or not Trae Young (check status) plays, the star guard will be hampered a bit with an ankle issue. The last two contests were both unders as these teams have made the necessary adjustments. Atlanta returns to the State Farm Arena where they have been one of the toughest home teams this season. Nate McMillan will find a way to slow down Khris Middleton here and have his team revved up and competitive. Expect a strong defensive effort from both squads with fewer mistake committed. This is going to be a tight game. The under is 4-0 L4 meetings in Atlanta, 5-1-1 in the Bucks L7 playoffs games as a fav, and 6-0 in the Hawks L6 on one days rest. Take the under. Thank you. |

06-29-21 | Marlins -108 v. Phillies | 3-4 | Loss | -108 | 8 h 6 m | Show | |
Marlins. UTR play. Game 901. 4:05 pm pst. The combination of the Phillies finding new and improved ways to lose and Trevor Rogers taking the mound, prompts me to take Miami here. Throw in the mix the Marlins are 7-3 the last 10 meetings with their division rivals, and getting this team at around even money is a no-brainer. The Phillies bullpen was the worst in the Majors a season ago. Currently, they are looking just as bad. Rogers is 7-4 with a 2.08 ERA on the campaign and has looked quite impressive in all 17 appearances in 2021. Miami is 5-2 L7 at Philadelphia. Philly is 2-6 L8 overall. Take the Marlins. Thank you. |

06-28-21 | Clippers +5.5 v. Suns | 116-102 | Win | 100 | 11 h 34 m | Show | |
Clippers. WCF Game 5 Winner. Game 511. 6:05 pm pst. Facing elimination, Los Angeles must come back here to keep their season alive. Funny thing about this series, the Clippers, despite being down 3-2, have outscored the Suns. Three of the four meetings this round have been separated by a total of 11 points. Los Angeles is 16-7 L23 vs. the Suns, 6-2 ATS L8 on one days rest, 4-1 ATS L5 as a ‘dog, 4-1 ATS L5 following an ATS loss, and 6-2 ATS L8 overall. Take the Clippers. Thank you. |

06-28-21 | Phillies v. Reds -152 | 4-12 | Win | 100 | 8 h 19 m | Show | |
Reds. MMM. Game 954. 3:40 pst. Both teams have some banged-up players. But the Cincinnati lineup is deep and potent. And today, their best pitcher, Wade Miley (6-4, 2.85) takes the mound. In five career starts vs. Philadelphia, the LH is 3-1with a 3.09 ERA in 32 IP. The Phillies send Spencer Howard to the wolves…I mean the hill. The RH (0-2, 5.59) will make his fifth start and ninth appearance of the year. Philadelphia is 7-20 L27 in Cincinnati, 9-23 L32 following a win, and 2-9 L11 during Game 1 of a series. Take the Reds. Thank you. |

06-27-21 | Bucks v. Hawks +4.5 | 113-102 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 4 m | Show | |
Atlanta. Fast Break play. Game 502. 5:35 pm pst. After winning Game 1 of this series, Atlanta took one of the worst beating this season in Game 2. Trae Young, the teams top-scorer, had his poorest performance and lowest scoring game in the playoffs. Expect the star guard to come in here in Game 3, at home, and produce. The Hawks are one of the NBA’s best home teams and giving them points here is a mistake. They are 4-1 ATS L5 following an ATS loss, 20-6 ATS L26 at home, 15-7 ATS l22 on one day rest, and 11-5 ATS L16 overall. Take Atlanta. Thank you. |

06-27-21 | Diamondbacks v. Padres -1.5 | 4-5 | Loss | -114 | 5 h 46 m | Show | |
Padres on the Run Line. Diamond Play. Game 912. 1:10 pm pst. Arizona won their first road game since April 25, yesterday. But savor the flavor as the Diamondbacks have a mediocre offense, at best and one of the worst pitching staffs in baseball. Gallen (1-3, 3.67) and Darvish (7-2, 2.50) are scheduled starters here. Expect the Padres, which won eight straight prior to Saturday, to bounce back here. San Diego owns the League’s second ranked pitching staff (3.15 Team ERA) and during their recent, eight-game win streak, they averaged 6.25 RPG. The Diamondbacks are 0-5 L5 following a win. The Padres are 21-5 L26 at home. Take San Diego on the run line. Thank you. |

06-26-21 | Suns -107 v. Clippers | 84-80 | Win | 100 | 10 h 8 m | Show | |
Phoenix. FAST BREAK play. Game 591. 6:05 pm pst. Game 3 of this series saw the return of Chris Paul. Both Paul, and Devin Booker shot very poorly. This is a smart, well-coached team full of playmakers. The coaching staff is excellent at making adjustments. The team has been money following a bad outing, going 12-4 ATS L16 following a SU loss and 23-9 ATS L32 following an ATS loss. Phoenix knows LA has been down 2-0 and won each of the last two rounds this postseason. They won’t let them back into this series. Take the Suns. Thank you. |

06-26-21 | Yankees +108 v. Red Sox | 2-4 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 24 m | Show | |
New York. ROUND TRIPPER. Game 977. 4:15 pm pst. New York had some issues with Boston this season, dropping all four meetings. If the Yankees are going to make a run at the division title, it must start today. They can go into the break surging. A win over the second place Red Sox would motivate the third place Yankees. Montgomery (3-1, 4.03) and Eovaldi (7-4, 3.90) are starters here. New York has won Montgomery’s last six starts while Boston has dropped two of Eovaldi’s last three turns. The Red Sox are 1-6 L7 vs. LH starters. The Yankees are 7-3 L10 overall. Take New York. Thank you. |

06-25-21 | Hawks +8 v. Bucks | 91-125 | Loss | -102 | 10 h 49 m | Show | |
Atlanta. CTB. Game 581. 5:35 pm pst. This is way too many points to give the better-coached, well-prepped, and scrappy Hawks. Atlanta has been money to us bettors, covering eight of their last 11 postseason outings. Milwaukee, on the other hand, has crushed followers, going 3-8 ATS their last 11 playoffs contests. The Hawks outhustled the Bucks in Game 1. Milwaukee is very similar to a Philly team which Atlanta ousted in the last round. The Hawks are 19-7 ATS L26 at the Bucks, 5-1 ATS L6 as a road ‘dog, and 15-6 ATS L21 on one day rest. The Bucks are 1-4 ATS L5 following a SU loss, 1-4 ATS L5 as a fav, and 0-7 ATS L7 home games vs. teams with a losing road record. Take Atlanta. Thank you. |

06-25-21 | Mariners v. White Sox -1.5 | 9-3 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 18 m | Show | |
Chicago. HR. Game 930. 5:10 pm pst. While Seattle has heated-up, the AL West is a two-horse race and the M’s are not in the hunt. Chicago has a two-game lead over Cleveland in the Central’s two-horse race. The White Sox are one of baseball’s best home teams, donning a 27-12 mark at Guaranteed Rate Field. The Mariners, once they leave home, are having problems. They are just 15-21 as a visitor. Chicago has taken two of three meetings with Seattle in 2021. Today, Kikuchi (4-3, 3.46) and Rodon (6-2, 1.83) are starters. The White Sox average nearly a full run more than does the Mariners and yield more than a full run less. Seattle is 11-31 L42 road games vs. LH starters. Chicago is 40-13 L53 as a home favorite. Take the White Sox. Thank you. |

06-24-21 | Suns -112 v. Clippers | 92-106 | Loss | -112 | 11 h 41 m | Show | |
Phoenix. VI MOVE. Game 572. 6:05 pm pst. Phoenix has won nine in a row SU, going 8-1 ATS. This includes Games 1 and 2 of the Western Conference Finals. Word is that Chris Paul will play today (check status). Following a last-second basket by Deandre Ayton to get the victory in Tuesday’s matchup, expect the better overall rested team Suns team to continue to win and cover on the road (4-0 ATS L4 as a visitor). They are also 23-8 ATS L31 following an ATS loss. Take Phoenix. Thank you. |

06-24-21 | Royals v. Yankees OVER 9.5 | 1-8 | Loss | -100 | 3 h 35 m | Show | |
OVER in the KC/NY matchup. Diamond play. Games 959/960. 10:05 am pst. These two teams have played to seven consecutive overs, including both meetings in 2021. Kellner (6-7, 6.34) in two career appearances vs. New York, owns a 5.40 ERA. Taillon (1-4, 5.59) is on an eight-game winless slide. Both lineups have come alive recently. Expect another high-scoring matchup here. The over is 4-0 in the Royals L4 on the road and 5-0 in the Yankees L5 vs. the AL Central. Take the over. Thank you. |

06-23-21 | Hawks +8 v. Bucks | Top | 116-113 | Win | 101 | 9 h 26 m | Show |
Atlanta hawks. ECF GOY. Game 561. 5:35 pm pst. This is just too many points to give a well-coached, smarty and scrappy, Hawks team that ousted the 76ers in the last round. Milwaukee has gotten by with luck. We have seen the Bucks commit countless mental errors, turning the ball over, getting flustered, and missing crucial shots from the FT line. They are very similar to the 76ers. Look for the sharper, better-coached, and the frustrating Hawks squad to out smart and outclass the 76ers here. Atlanta is 12-3 ATS L15 at Milwaukee, 4-1 ATS L5 on the road, and 10-4 ATS L14 overall. Take the Hawks. Thank you. |

06-23-21 | A's -135 v. Rangers | Top | 3-5 | Loss | -135 | 9 h 49 m | Show |
Oakland. AL WEST GOW. Game 915. 5:05 pm pst. This is a very short price to lay with an A’s team that is on a 10-4 run, just one GB in the AL West, at 45-30. Texas dwells in the division cellar at 26-47, 19 GB. They own some of the ugliest stats in the Majors, both on the mound, and at the plate. Kaprielian (4-1, 2.84) and Foltynewicz (1-7, 5.59) are scheduled starters here. The A’s are 42-18 L60 meetings in this series and 7-2 L9 vs. RH starters. The Rangers are 1-7 L8 as a home underdog and 1-9 L10 vs. the AL West. Take Oakland. Thank you. |

06-22-21 | Brewers -135 v. Diamondbacks | 5-0 | Win | 100 | 12 h 55 m | Show | |
Milwaukee Brewers. Diamond Play. Game 955. 6:40 pm pst. Arizona ended a franchise-record 17-game slide on Monday, besting Milwaukee, 5-1. Don’t put too much stock into the Diamondbacks finally getting a victory. This is a club that’s having trouble driving in runs. But to make matters worse, the pitching staff ranks 30th both in Team ERA (5.36) and WHIP (1.46). Prior to yesterday’s loss, the Brewers took nine straight matchups with the Diamondbacks, including all four this season. Freddy Peralta (6-2, 2.28) owns a career, 2-0 record with a 0.87 ERA in three starts vs. Arizona. Zac Gallen (1-2, 3.90) had just one lifetime start vs. Milwaukee, in which he gave up two runs in 5.0 IP, in a 4-0 loss back in 2019. The Brewers are now tied with the Cubs for first place in the NL Central at 40-33. They need every win they can get right now to better their standings in this very competitive division. They are the only team in the division with a winning road record (20-15). Milwaukee is 4-1 L5 at Arizona, 9-4 L13 on the road, and 7-1 L8 vs. teams with a winning percentage under .400. Arizona is 0-4 L4 following a win, 2-14 L16 home games vs. RH starters, and 1-4 L5 vs. the NL Central. Take the Brewers. Thank you. |

06-22-21 | Clippers v. Suns -4.5 | 103-104 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 32 m | Show | |
Phoenix. WCF Game 2 Winner. Game 552. 6:05 pm pst. The Phoenix Suns have now won and covered eight straight contests. Game 1 of this series was tied, 93-93 when the fourth quarter began. Phoenix then showed why they are the best team in the West, prevailing, 120-114. Both Kawhi Leonard and Chris Paul are ruled out today. Leonard is the Clippers top-scorer, one of their best rebounders, and the teams floor general. L.A. can not compete without him. Paul is a star. However, the Suns have some very talented guards to fill in without affecting the team. Phoenix will once again be too much on the boards and outrebound Los Angeles here. And, if you are concerned about the number, if you recall, the Suns were favored by six points in both Games 1 and 2 of the last round against the Nuggets, and won both by a combined 42 points. The Clippers are 1-4 ATS l5 as a road underdog. The Suns are 10-1 ATS L11 playoff games as a favorite. Take Phoenix. Thank you. |

06-22-21 | Astros -1.5 v. Orioles | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 9 h 26 m | Show | |
Houston Astros on the run line. AL GAME OF THE WEEK. Game 961. June 22, 2021. 4:05 pm pst. Winners of eight straight and 17 of their last 21 outings, Houston has taken sole possession of first place in the AL West. They sport the AL’s best overall record (44-28). Very quietly, the Astros lineup tops the Majors in scoring (5.68 RPG), Team BA (.277), and OPS (.802). Let’s not overlook the fact that they are also crushing the long ball, tallying 95 HR’s. This is impressive enough. However, their pitching staff ranks ninth, with a Team ERA of 3.61. On their current win streak, the offense is averaging 8.12 RPG, accounting for six or more runs in seven of those eight victories. Their pitchers have yielded an average of 2.50 RPG, allowing three or less runs in seven of those eight contests. Zack Greinke gets the nod here. The RH dons a 7-2 record with a 3.74 ERA. The team is 11-4 this season in his 15 appearances. No one expected too much form Baltimore this year. And yet, the Orioles have still underachieved. At 23-49, they own the AL’s worst record and dwell in the AL East cellar, 20 GB. Jorge Lopez is 2-8 with a 5.95 ERA on the campaign. The RH has gotten roughed-up in his last two turns, not making it past the fourth inning and getting plowed for 10 ER’s, resulting in two losses. The team is just 1-6 in his last seven appearances. Baltimore has dropped 10 of their last 11 games. You can’t point a finger and not hit someone to blame, folks. On the few occasions they did score some runs, their starters and relievers have allowed so many runs (86 runs in those 10 defeats) they had to change the bulbs on the stadium scoreboard LOL. Houston accounts for more than a run and half per game and yields nearly a run and a half less. They are 11-3 L14 meetings at Camden Yards, 6-2 L8 on the road, and 20-7 L27 as a favorite. Baltimore is 16-44 L60 vs. RH starters, 1-4 L5 at home, and 15-37 L52 as an underdog. Take the Astros on the run line. Thank you. |

06-21-21 | Brewers -114 v. Diamondbacks | 1-5 | Loss | -114 | 12 h 47 m | Show | |
Milwaukee. HOME RUN play. Game 905. 6:40 pm pst. Milwaukee is tied for the division lead with Chicago. Their offense is starting to heat up, scoring five or more runs in 12 of their last 18 outings. This doesn’t bode well for an Arizona team that owns the poorest record in all of baseball (20-53), with the league’s 30th ranked pitching staff (5.43 Team ERA). The Brewers have taken all four meetings with the Diamondbacks this season and eight of the last nine overall. They are 7-0 L7 vs. teams with a winning record under .400, 7-2 L9 vs. the NL West, and 9-3 L12 on the road. The Diamondbacks are 0-17 L17 overall, 0-4 L4 vs. the NL Central, and 4-17 L21 at home. Take Milwaukee. Thank you. |

Cleveland. IL GOW. Game 913. 5:05 pm pst. Winners of seven of their last 10, the Indians are just 2.5 GB of the White Sox in the AL Central. This is a very well-balanced team. Four games separate four teams in the NL Central. Chicago has dropped five of their last seven outings. Aaron Civale (10-2, 3.48) has evolved into the ace of the staff. The 26-year-old has faced the Cubs once, last season, allowing two runs in 6.0 IP for an ND. Adbert Alzolay (4-5, 4.06) is 0-1 with a 4.50 ERA in one career start vs. the Tribe. Cleveland has taken both meetings with Chicago in 2021. Over their last eight games, the Cubs lineup has put up three runs only once. The rest of those outings, they accounted for two runs or less. Chicago is 2-5 L7 IL games vs. RH starters. Cleveland is 5-1 L6 as a road underdog. Take the Indians. Thank you. |

Dodgers on the run line. NL WEST GOW. Game 961. 1:10 pm pst. Los Angeles has taken all six meetings with Arizona in 2021, with only a single contest decided by just one run. The Dodgers have outscored the Diamondbacks, 31-9. As a matter of fact, they are 20-7 the last 27 overall matchups in this rivalry. Gonsolin (0-0, 0.38) and Young (2-4, 3.86) are scheduled starters today. L.A. accounts for almost a full run per game more than does ‘Zona and allows more than two runs per game less. The D-Backs are currently riding a 16-game losing streak while the Dodgers have turned up the heat, winning nine of their last 11. L.A. is 6-1 L7 at Arizona. Take the Dodgers on the run line. Thank you. |

Suns. WCF GOY. Game 536. 12:35 pm pst. Both teams are without superstars. Kawhi Leonard and Chris Paul are both out here. Both have missed a significant number of games this season. But this isn’t the regular season. Leonard is the teams top-scorer, one of their best rebounders, and their floor general. While Paul is a solid contributor, the Suns possess a few solid guards that will fill on and not affect the squad. The Clippers have only had one day to rest and prepare for the Western Conference Finals following a grueling, six-game war with the Jazz. Phoenix did away with Denver in a four-game sweep and have rested for about a week. The Suns have the offense and the defense to overwhelm the tired Clippers team. Not to forget they are on a seven-game win and cover streak. Take Phoenix. Thank you. |

Nets. Game 7 Winner. Game 522. 5:35 pm pst. The home team has won all six games in this series, going 5-1 against the number. The Bucks have made a slew of mental errors, turned the ball over, and missed quite a few crucial free throws this round. James Harden returned to the floor the last two games and averaged 42 MPG. His numbers were down. Expect the star guard to have a significant impact here having had some time to rest. Brooklyn is 4-0 ATS L4 at home vs. Milwaukee, 11-1 ATS L12 as a home favorite, 5-1 ATS L6 on one day rest, 14-3 ATS L17 overall at home, and 7-3 ATS L10 following an ATS loss. Take the Nets.

Giants. HOME RUN. Game 906. 1:05 pm pst. Donning baseballs best record (45-25), San Francisco has won five straight including Game 1of this series. They have taken three of four meetings with Philly in 2021 and going back a bit, five of the last six matchups. The Giants have dominated this NL rivalry at Oracle Park, with a 19-7 mark the L26 at home vs. the Phillies. Philadelphia has had real problems on the road where they are 12-22. Nola (5-4, 3.69) and Wood (6-3, 3.71) are starters here. Both on the mound (4th, 3.22 Team ERA) and at the plate (10th, 4.87 RPG), the Giants outclass the Phillies. Philadelphia is 17-35 L52 on the road, 3-9 L12 vs. LH starters, and 1-4 L5 vs. the NL West. San Francisco is 37-16 L53 at home, 21-7 L28 vs. RH starters, and 9-3 L12 vs. the NL East. Take the Giants.

Tampa Bay Rays. Crusher. Game 977. 7:10 pm pst. Traveling doesn’t affect the Rays. At 24-13 away from home, Tampa Bay is once again one of the best road teams in the Majors. Both, at the plate and on the mound, they rank in the top-10 in the League. Michael Wacha takes the mound here. The RH is 1-1 with a 4.54 ERA this season. The team has won the lasts seven games he has appeared in. Yusei Kikuchi takes the hill at home. The LH is 3-3 with a 3.67 ERA in 2021. The team is just 5-7 in his 12 appearances on the campaign. Look for the more consistent Rays to get back on track here behind the far better pitcher. Tampa Bay 10-3 L13 vs. LH starters, 22-9 L32 on the road, 8-3 L11 vs. the AL West, and 24-8 L32 overall.

Over in the Jazz/Clippers matchup. WC TOM. Games 513/514. 7:05 pm pst. This is a low total for two of the most explosive offenses in the NBA. These two teams have met eight times this season. With the current number, the last six games would have all gone over this total. Expect another high-scoring contest here as LA wants to close out the series and Utah wants to survive to fight another day. The over is 8-2 in the Jazz’ L10 overall and 4-1 in the Clippers L5 playoffs as a ‘dog. Take the Over. Thank you. |

Atlanta Hawks. VIM. Game 512. 4:35 pm pst. Atlanta has shown their grit, coming from behind to win the last two games of this series. The Hawks are also one of the NBA’s strongest teams when playing host. Giving them points here is a gift. Nate McMillan has been one step ahead of Doc Rivers this round and has made some adjustments and they have all worked out. All this along with the funk Ben Simmons has been in, tells us to take the home underdog here. The 76ers are 1-4 ATS L5 at the Hawks. The Hawks are 4-1 ATS L5 as a home underdog. Take Atlanta.

Brooklyn. HIGH ROLLER play. Game 501. 5:35 pm pst. Both teams need the win tonight. The Bucks to avoid elimination. And the Nets as to not let the series even out and force a Game 7. We’ve been watching Milwaukee commit a ton of mental mistakes. While Antetokounmpo and Middleton are putting up some amazing numbers, the team overall is turning the ball over and is falling short at the FT line. James Harden had one of his poorest performances all season in Game 5. But he still played over 45 minutes. Expect him to have a much better game here and keep this contest close. The Nets are 4-1 ATS L5 vs. the Bucks, 5-0 ATS L5 on one days rest, and 4-1 ATS L5 on the road. The Bucks are 4-10 ATS L14 as a fav, 3-7 ATS L10 following an ATS loss, and 2-5 ATS L7 at home. Take Brooklyn. Thank you. |

St. Louis. Home Run play. Game 905. 4:20 pm pst. St. Louis, at 35-33, is just 3.0 GB in the NL Central hunt. The Cardinals come off a three-game sweep of the Marlins. Atlanta, at 30-35, is 7.5 GB in the NL East and have lost six of their last seven outings. These two teams haven’t met in nearly two years and today, Gant (4-4, 3.36) and Morton (5-3, 4.50) are scheduled starters. The St. Louis lineup is starting to surge. And it really doesn’t matter how much the Atlanta offense contributes, their bullpen has been deplorable. The Cardinals are 11-4 L15 at the Braves, 6-2 L8 vs. the NL East, and 11-5 L16 vs. teams with a losing record. The Braves are 0-4 L4 as a fav, 1-5 L6 vs. RH starters, and 2-5 L7 vs. teams with a winning record. Take St. Louis. Thank you. |

Jazz. VI MOVE. Game 584. 7:00 pm pst. After dropping Games 3 and 4 in L.A., Utah returns to Salt Lake City, where they are one of the best home teams in the NBA (35-6). Donovan Mitchell had some time to rest and heal a bit. Expect the Jazz to dominate here just as in the first two games of this series. Quin Snyder also had time to prepare his squad and make the necessary adjustments to overcome L.A.’s zone defense. Look for Utah’s “bigger” lineup to get it done in the paint. The Clippers are 8-22-1 ATS L31 at the Jazz, 1-4 ATS L5 as a road ‘dog, and 1-4 ATS L5 vs. teams with a winning percentage over .600. The Jazz are 6-0 ATS L6 as a fav, 4-0 ATS L4 at home, and 6-2 ATS L8 overall. Take Utah. Thank you. |

Giants. CRUSHER play. Game 962. 6:45 pm pst. This season’s most pleasant surprise is the Giants. They have a 1.5 game lead in the NL West and own the best overall record in the NL (42-25). They rank in the top-10 both at the plate and on the mound. San Francisco has taken all four meetings with Arizona (which own the worst overall record in the Majors at 20-48) in 2021. And going back to 2020, they won the last seven meetings. The D-Backs are riding a 12-game slide. Kelly (2-6, 5.14) and DeSclafani (6-2, 3.09) are scheduled starters. The Giants are 8-2 in DeSclafani’s 10 starts this season. By the way, ‘Zona’s pitching staff ranks 30th with a Team ERA of 5.17. the Diamondbacks are 0-5 L5 at the Giants. Take San Francisco.

76ers. Game 582. 4:30 pm pst. Philadelphia is the Eastern Conference’s top seed. And after a lackluster performance on Wednesday, expect the 76ers to take the lead here in this best-of-seven series over the fifth seed. Center, Joel Embiid shot quite poorly in game 4 and will dominate here in game 5. Atlanta is not the same team on the road (19-22) as they are at home (28-12). The Hawks are 1-4 ATS l5 at the 76ers and 3-7 ATS L10 on the road. The 76ers are 4-0 ATS L4 following an ATS loss and 9-3-1 ATS L13 at home. Take Philadelphia. Thank you. |

Milwaukee. SLAM DUNK Play. Game 571. 5:30 pm pst. Brooklyn, for much of the season had to deal with injuries to their stars. However, playing without Harden and Irving (both ruled out today), against the NBA’s top-scoring team, will be fatal. The Bucks have taken Games 2 and 3 with authority. The Nets just can not compete with Antetokonmpo and Middleton up front. Durant can’t do it all by himself. And with two thirds of the dream team sidelined, Milwaukee will key on KD. They have the depth to frustrate the forward and slow him down a bit. The Bucks are 16-5-1 ATS L22 at the Nets, 4-1 ATS L5 following a SU win, and 5-2 ATS L7 on one day rest. Take Milwaukee. Thank you. |

Cleveland on the RUN LINE. HOME RUN play. Game 918. 4:10 pm pst. The A.L. Central’s second place team hosts the A.L. East’s last place team here. Cleveland is playing solid baseball (35-28), getting contributions both from the mound and at the plate. Baltimore owns the A.L.’s worst overall record at 22-43 along with some of the Majors poorest statistics. Currently, the Orioles are riding a five-game slide in which they have been outscored, 34-11. This includes a series-opening defeat at the hands of the Indians. Matt Harvey (3-7, 7.41) is 0-5 with a 14.19 ERA in his last six starts and over his career, the RH, in three appearances (two as a starter), is 0-2 with a 12.38 ERA vs. Cleveland. Reliever, Cal Quantrill (0-2, 3.21) will be making his third start in four appearances on the campaign here today. The O’s are 1-5 L6 at the Indians, 15-37 L52 on the road, and 18-41 L59 overall. The Tribe is 4-1 L5 as a favorite, 5-1 L6 at home, and 9-3 L12 during Game 2 of a series. Take Cleveland on the run line. Thank you. |

Utah. VI MOVE. Game 563. 7:05 pm pst. Outside of an early-January defeat to Brooklyn, the Game 3, 132-106 embarrassing loss to Los Angeles is the worst beating Utah has taken all season. The Jazz will bounce back here and avenge Saturday’s thumping. They are better on the boards and can and will slow down the Clippers top-ranked outside shooting squad with the NBA’s second-ranked three-point defense. The Jazz are 9-4 ATS L13 at the Clippers, 11-4 ATS L15 overall vs. the Clippers, 5-1 ATS L6 on one days rest, 4-1 ATS L5 on the road, and 6-1 ATS L7 overall. Take Utah. Thank you. |

The A’s are 17-8 L25 overall meetings with the Angels and 10-4 L14 in Oakland. Bundy (1-6, 6.16) has got just one win in 10 starts this season. The team is 3-7 behind him. Manaea (5-2, 3.09) has made 13 starts on the campaign. The team is 10-3 in those turns. The Angels have problems on the road (15-16) and the A’s are one of the A.L.’s best home teams (22-18). Oakland is 5-1 L6 at home, 4-0 L4 vs. RH starters, and 14-4 L18 during Game 1 of a series. Take the A’s. Thank you. |

Philadelphia. CTB play. Game 561. 4:35 pm pst. I wouldn’t make too much of Danny Green’s absence here. He’s the 76ers fifth starter and they are loaded at the guard position. Joel Embiid is averaging 35.3 PPG, 10.3 RPG, and 4.7 APG during this series. The Hawks can not slow the center down. Philadelphia has covered four of six meetings with Atlanta this season, including Games 2 and 3 of this round. They are 11-4-1 ATS L16 as a road favorite, 4-1 ATS L5 Conference Semi Final games, 5-2 ATS L7 overall.

Kowar couldn’t make it out of the first inning in his major League debut on Monday. The 27-year-old, Kaprielian has pitched very well in four of his five starts in 2021. The Royals lineup is struggling. And the A’s offense has come alive. Kansas City is 17-48 L65 vs. the AL West, 1-4 L5 on the road, and 1-6 L7 overall. Oakland is 47-13 L60 vs. the AL Central, 5-1 L6 vs. RH starters, and 7-2 L9 overall. Take the A’s. Thank you. |

With the absence of their regular season second leading scorer and floor general, Jamal Murray, Denver is clearly having trouble in transition. Nikola Jokic will get his points. But the supporting cast just don’t matchup up well here.

Turnbull is 0-3 with a 7.63 ERA in four career starts vs. the White Sox getting plowed for 14 run (13 earned) on 15 hits in 15 1/3 IP. Take Chicago. Thank you. |

Phoenix. VI MOVE. Game 543. 7:35 pm pst. Phoenix has taken advantage of Los Angeles during the absence of Anthony Davis (check status), who is listed as a gametime decision here. Devin Booker (26.2 PPG, 5.2 RPG, 5.4 APG this series) and Deandre Ayton (17.4 PPG, 12.2 RPG this series) have been just too much for the Lakers the last two games. Look for Ayton to dominate in the paint once again tonight. If Davis is out, there is no one to contend with the Suns center. And is Davis does, by chance play, he will not be at full strength. Phoenix is 8-3 ATS L11 as a road ‘dog. Los Angeles is 1-5 ATS L6 as a home fav, 3-7-1 ATS L11 on one days rest, and 6-13-1 ATS L20 overall. Take the Suns. Thank you. |

They have split the six meetings with Minnesota in 2021. Happ (3-2, 5.24) and Bubic (1-0, 1.52) are scheduled starters here. The Twins are depleted with injuries and it has taken its toll on the team, as they dwell in the AL Central cellar at 22-33 (10-16 road). The Royals are one of the healthier teams currently. And this has paid off for the offense. Perez, Merrifield, Benintendi, and Santana are all hitting the cover off the ball. Minny is 2-5 L7 at KC, 4-12 L16 vs. LH starters, 6-14 L20 on the road, 4-9 L13 vs. the AL Central, and 7-16 L23 vs. teams with a winning record. Take Kansas City. Thank you. |

Portland/Denver OVER the total. CTB play. Games 523/524. 6:05 pm pst. Denver’s offense was nowhere to be found in Game 4. Very uncharacteristic for the explosive squad which has been one of the highest-scoring all season. Portland has five players averaging double-digits in this series, with Lillard and McCollum combining for over 52.1 PPG. The outcome on Saturday was the lowest this season between these two teams and the first to go under the total over the last five.

You can expect the Mavericks to make the necessary adjustments here and be more physical and extremely aggressive. The Clippers have no answer for forward, Luka Doncic (38.0 PPG, 8.7 RPG, 9.0 APG in this series) at all. The Dallas supporting cast will be prepped and primed to get a home win here and further better themselves to close out this series.

Don’t look now but San Diego’s lineup has joined their pitching staff with a top-10 ranking. Their offense (9th) has heated up, averaging 4.75 RPG while their pitching staff (1st) has a Team ERA of 2.50. Yu Darvish is 5-1 with a 1.75 ERA this season and the team is 9-1 in his starts.

Bucks. EGW. Game 571. 10:35 am pst. Milwaukee has just dominated Miami in this series. As good as the Bucks are offensively (#1, 120.1 PPG), it has been their swarming defense that has been the reason for their success here. They are frustrating the Heat particularly the teams to regular season scorer, Jimmy Butler, who is averaging only 15.3 PPG in this series. Milwaukee will close the series out today and ensure themselves a few extra days to rest and prepare before the next round. The Bucks are 3-1 ATS vs. the Heat this season.

Dallas Mavericks. Vegas Insider Move. Game 566. 6:35 pm pst. Los Angeles, like every other team in the NBA, has no answer for Luka Doncic. The star forward has averaged over 35.0 PPG and 8.5 RPG in this series while his supporting cast consists of four other players averaging DD’s and a few flirting with it. While Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are incredible players, they’re not as young as they once were and averaging over 40 MPG each through Games 1 and 2, is going to be fatal here. The Mavericks have won and covered four of five meetings with the Clippers this season. They are also 4-0 ATS l4 as an underdog and 5-0 ATS L5 vs. teams with a winning percentage over .600. The Clippers are 2-6 ATS L8 on the road, 0-5 ATS L5 playoff games as a favorite, and 1-6 ATS L7 following a SU loss. Take Dallas. Thank you. |

Cole (6-2, 1.81) is 6-1 with a 1.97 ERA in eight career starts vs. Detroit. The Tigers 28th ranked offense (3.54 RPG) is in for a long day. The Yankees are 11-4 L15 at the Tigers.

I look for the more youthful Suns to be a bit fresher here, particularly come the second half. The Lakers are just 14-23 ATS at the Staples Center this season. L.A. is 3-8 ATS L11 at home, 2-6-1 ATS L9 on one days rest, and 0-4 ATS L4 as a home fav.

The Padres own the Majors No.1 pitching staff, donning a Team ERA of 2.49. Weathers (2-1, 1.48) and Houser (3-5, 4.53) are starters here today. Both are expected to go no further than approximately 5.0 IP. Weathers is better rested and certainly has the far superior bull pen. The Padres lineup is beginning to stride while the Brewers offense has been hit or miss (no pun intended). San Diego is 6-0 L6 vs. teams with a losing record, 6-1 L7 vs. the NL Central, and 20-7 L27 overall. Milwaukee is 2-5 L7 at home, 3-9 L12 vs. LH starters, and 7-15 L22 overall. Take the Padres.

A’s. CRUSHER play. Game 973. 1:05 pm pst. Oakland will get the sweep here, as they have dominated Los Angeles in their park, going 7-3 the last 10 meetings in Angel Stadium. Without Mike Trout, LA’s already erratic offense is hurting. And with Dylan Bundy (0-5, 6.02) on the hill, things go from bad to worse for the AL West’s cellar dweller. Oakland is 14-6 overall on the road this season, 18-8 L26 following a win, and 27-12 L39 overall. Take the A’s. Thank you. |

05-22-21 | Blazers +1 v. Nuggets | Top | 123-109 | Win | 101 | 12 h 10 m | Show |
Trailblazers. Game 511. 7:35 pm pst. Portland has covered all three meetings with Denver this season. They are 10-2 overall their last 12 games SU, going 9-3 ATS, beating some of the NBA’s best. As good as the Nuggets offense is, the Blazers score more, are better from both the FT line and from downtown. The back court of Lillard and McCollum are one of the most talented in the NBA. They do outclass the Denver guards and will penetrate the paint against their big men. The Trailblazers are 4-0 ATS L4 meetings with the Nuggets and 7-1 ATS L8 as an underdog. The Nuggets are 1-4 ATS L5 vs. teams with a winning record and 1-6 ATS L7 on three or more days rest. Take Portland. Thank you. |

05-22-21 | Red Sox -123 v. Phillies | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 9 h 35 m | Show | |
Red Sox. Crusher. Game 927. 4:15 pm pst. Boston is atop the AL East, winning three in a row. This team is very dangerous, sporting the AL’s best record at 28-18. They took Game 1 of this series yesterday, 11-3. Going back to last season, they are 5-2 the last seven meetings with Philly. The Red Sox lineup rank in the top-five in scoring, Team BA, OPS, and HR’s. They account for more than a full run per game than does the mediocre Phillies lineup. Eovaldi (4-2, 4.50) gets the nod on the road today. Howard has made just three appearances in 2021, for a total of 4.1 IP and dons an ERA of 8.31. Boston is 4-1 L5 at Philadelphia, 4-0 L4 vs. RH starters, and 20-8 L28 on the road. Philadelphia is 1-7 L8 IL games, 1-7 L8 vs. the AL East, and 1-5 L6 overall. Take the Red Sox. Thank you. |
