06-21-22 | Royals +1.5 v. Angels | Top | 12-11 | Win | 100 | 15 h 30 m | Show |
10* ROYALS RUNLINE (BOB) The Royals have been playing well lately and I expect that trend to carry over here. They've won 4 of their last 5. That includes yesterday's series opener here in LA by a score of 6-2. That loss snapped the Angels 3-game win skein. The Royals hand the ball to Johathan Heasley, who is 1-3 with a 3.72 ERA, while the home side counters with Reid Detmers, who is 2-3 with a 4.25 ERA. These starters are more evenly matched here than what the oddsmakers are trying to lead us to believe. Look for Kansas City to, at the very least, keep this one close enough to comfortably cover with extra 1.5 runs on the runline option! AAA Sports |

06-21-22 | Tigers +1.5 v. Red Sox | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 12 h 7 m | Show | |
9* RUNLINE Tigers (DESTRUCTION) Detroit has lost 7 of its last 10. That includes yesterday's series opener here by a score of 5-2. The Red Sox have won 7 of their last 10. I believe Detroit digs deep here though and, at the very least, keeps this one close enough to earn the ATS cover (+1.5). Beau Brieske is coming off B2B scoreless starts. He's 1-5 with a 3.79 ERA for the Tigers and I believe he's coming in "under the radar" here. The home side counters with veteran Rich Hill, who is 2-4 with a 4.42 ERA. He tied his season high with 7 hits allowever over 5 innings vs. the A's on Thursday, allowing 4 runs in the process. In what I expect to be a tight game, the Tigers on the runline option is the play! AAA Sports |

06-21-22 | Dodgers v. Reds +1.5 | 8-2 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 42 m | Show | |
8* REDS RUNLINE (SPECIAL) I think an outright win is possible here as well, but in the end I'm going to lay the price for the extra 1.5 runs in my back pocket. The Dodgers lost 2 of 3 to the Indians over the weekend, while the Reds enter having lost 4 straight. Tony Gonsolin has been downright amazing for the Dodgers so far this season, but I say he finally has a letdown here. He's 8-0 with a 1.42 ERA, which is unsustainable in my opinion moving forward. The home side counters with the hungry Tyler Mahle, who has pitched better than his 2-5 win/loss record would indicate, entering with a respectable 4.46 ERA and 1.25 WHIP. Mahle went 9 innings of scoreless ball against Arizona in his last start and he's thrown to a 3.07 ERA over his last 7 starts combined. In a contest that I seeing being decided late or even in extras, I'm grabbing the Reds on the runline option! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-20-22 | Diamondbacks +1.5 v. Padres | Top | 1-4 | Loss | -130 | 15 h 56 m | Show |
10* ARIZONA RUNLINE (GOW) San Diego is off 3 straight losses at Colorado and I believe it's ripe for the picking here as well for the hungry Diamondbacks. Arizona enters having won 3 of its last 4, including 2 of 3 from Minnesota over the weekend. These starters are evenly matched. Zach Davies is 2-3 with a 3.78 ERA for the D-Backs, while Yu Darvish is 6-3 with a 3.35 ERA for Friars. These teams are evenly matched offensively as well (middle of the pack,) so that means the value here in this contest swings to the undervalued underdog in my opinion. In a game that I see being decided late or even in extras, I'm laying the price for the extra 1.5 runs in my back pocket; the play is Arizona on the runline option! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-20-22 | Marlins +1.5 v. Mets | 0-6 | Loss | -130 | 7 h 32 m | Show | |
9* MARLINS RUNLINE (SPECIAL) This is the finale of a 4 game series. The Marlins will look to even things up after posting the 6-2 victory here yesterday, getting 5 runs in the 7th and another in the top of the 9th to cap it off. Trevor Rogers is 3-5 with a 5.87 ERA for the Fish, while David Peterson is 3-1 with a 3.60 ERA for the Metropolitans. Rogers is 2-0 with a 1.35 ERA in 4 career starts vs. the Mets. Peterson is 1-0 vs. the Marlins, giving up 2 runs over 5 innings back in 2020. I say these starters are a "wash," and that tips the scales in favor of this undervalued underdog side. However, I'm not calling for an outright win here, despite it being a very legitimate possibility. Instead, in a game that I see being decided late or even in extras, I'll lay this very reasonable price for the extra 1.5 runs in my back pocket; the play is Miami on the runline option! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-19-22 | White Sox +1.5 v. Astros | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 12 h 2 m | Show |
10* WHITE SOX RUNLINE (BLOOD-BATH) Chicago won 7-0 yesterday and I think it has a legtimate shot at winning tonight's game as well. However, at this price, I simply can't turn down the extra 1.5 runs in my back pocket at this price. Chicago turns to Michael Kopech, who is 2-2 with a 1.92 ERA, while the home side counters with Christian Javier, who is 3-3 with a 3.20 ERA. I say these pitchers are completely evenly matched. Note though that Chicago is 7-2 in its last 9 after a road shutout victory in its last outing. In a contest that I see being decided late, or even in extra time, the play is Chicago on the runline option! AAA Sports |

06-18-22 | Padres v. Rockies +1.5 | Top | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 14 h 4 m | Show |
10* ROCKIES RUNLINE (ASSASSIN) Colorado exploded for a 10-4 victory last night and while I feel it has a legitimate shot at winning this game outright as well, in the end I'll recommend laying this very reasonable price for the extra 1.5 runs in your back pocket. Nick Martinez is 2-3 with a 3.74 ERA for the visitors, while German Marquez is 3-5 with a 6.09 ERA for the home side. Marquez has dominated the Friars throughout his career though, going 9-3 with a 4.31 ERA vs. them. Martinez has faced Colorado 3 times and owns a 6.75 ERA against it. Coors Field is the great equalizer for pitchers, but look for Marquez to take advantage of familiar surroundings; the play is Colorado on the runline option! AAA Sports |

06-18-22 | Calgary +1.5 v. Hamilton | Top | 33-30 | Win | 100 | 11 h 23 m | Show |
10* STAMPEDERS (GOW) Calgary held on for a 30-27 home win over Montreal last weekend and I expect it to carry that momentum over into its first road game of the season. The Ti-Cats come in off a listless 30-13 road loss at Saskatchewan. Calgary lost 23-17 in the only meeting between the team's last year, but it's still won 16 of the last 18 in the series. Bo Levi Mitchell is going to settle down here for the Stamps after going for 194 yards and 1 TD and 1 INT. Running back Ka’Deem Carey led the league in rushing last year and he had 2 TD's. I expect him to have a big day against this suspect Hamilton defense. Hamilton TB Dane Evans looked inept last week and I believe he'll struggle against this aggressive and experienced Calgary defense. Grab the points, the play is the Stampeders! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-17-22 | Guardians +1.5 v. Dodgers | Top | 2-1 | Win | 125 | 15 h 50 m | Show |
10* GUARDIANS RUNLINE (IL RL GOY) Two hot teams collide. I think Zach Plesac can match Clayton Kershaw inning for inning and in a scenario like that, I believe the value swings to the undervalued underdog. The Guardians have won 4 in a row and 7 of their last 8 games. Their offense is middle of the pack, but their team ERA is seventh. The Dodgers come in off B2B wins over the Angels. They have their No. 1 offense in the league (5.08 RPG) and the No. 2 collective ERA. Plesac is 2-4 with a 4.70 ERA, while Kershaw is 4-1 with a 2.12 ERA. Kershaw returned from a month long injury and looked decent in his last start, but the door is open here for the hungry Plesac to match pace. The Dodgers have in fact been struggling somewhat at the plate of late, while Cleveland is arguably playing its best baseball of the season right now. For all the reasons listed above, grab the Guardians on the runline option! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-16-22 | Warriors v. Celtics -3.5 | Top | 103-90 | Loss | -110 | 37 h 31 m | Show |
10* CELTICS (ART OF WAR) I'm not counting out Boston quite yet. The NBA really needs a Game 7. It would be the icing on the cake for a really great season after a couple of years having to deal with COVID. Everyone needs the extra revenue a Game 7 would deliver. I say Golden State finally stumbles on the road here, as I look for this hungry Celtics side to go up early, and then never look back. The achilles heel of the Warriors has been their play on the road, and Boston has been at its best at home. The Celtics still have the league's No. 1 defense and we can expect it to be out in full force tonight. I say Boston keeps the foot on the gas until the final horn; lay the points, the play is the Celtics! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-16-22 | Orioles +1.5 v. Blue Jays | 10-2 | Win | 110 | 8 h 54 m | Show | |
8* ORIOLES RUNLINE (TOP AL) The Orioles have been trading wins and losses over their last 4 games, and off a 7-6 loss here yesterday in Toronto, I'm expecting this pattern to continue. The last 2 games have been very tight, with Baltimore winning 6-5 previously. This is the 4th and final game of this series, and the O's are looking to even things up. They're big dogs here, but I expect another game decided late, or even in extra time. The visitors hand the ball to Tyler Wells, who has pitched much better than what his win/loss record would indicate, as he's 3-4 despite a strong 3.86 ERA and 33 to 11 K:BB. He'll be opposed by Kevin Gausman, who is 5-5 with a 2.67 ERA. I like Wells to match Gausman here inning for inning, and in a scenario like that, I tend to gravitate towards the under-rated underdog; the play is Baltimore on the runline option! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-16-22 | A's +1.5 v. Red Sox | Top | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 6 h 28 m | Show |
10* A'S RUNLINE (SPECIAL) The A's have been blown out in 2 straight losses to open this series. That includes yesterday's 10-1 setback. Expect Oakland's best starting pitcher to keep his team competitive in the finale this afternoon though. With an interesting interleague series starting here tomorrow against the Cardinals, Boston gets caught looking ahead. Rich Hill gets the call for the home side and he's 2-3 with a 4.38 ERA. He's been decent, but not perfect this season. Paul Blackburn is 5-2 with a 2.31 ERA for the A's. He's off an unfortunate no-decision against the Guardians, allowing 4 hits over 8 shutout innings. "Times like this are tough on anybody," Blackburn said recently. "We're just trying to come in with a clear mind and taking that one-game-at-a-time mentality. It's tough. But guys are coming in with a positive attitude every day. They're working. Guys aren't complaining. Sooner or later, the results are going to turn in our favor." While I do feel an outright upset is in the cards, I feel more comfortably laying the price for the extra 1.5 runs in my back pocket; the play is the A's on the runline option! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-15-22 | Lightning +1.5 v. Avalanche | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 84 h 16 m | Show | |
8* LIGHTING PUCKLINE (BLOOD-BATH) I play underdogs, totals, and I'm also not afraid to lay chalk when I believe I'm getting good value. And that's the case here. I do in fact think the Bolts are worth a second look on the moneyline as well, but in a contest that I see being decided late, or even in extra periods, I'm going to lay the price for the extra 1.5 goals in my back pocket. Both teams hav been super hot coming in, but I'll argue that Tampa's road to this point has been much harder. The Avs have faced weak goaltending and are going to be in for a shock now facing arguably the best netminder on Earth in Andrei Vasilevskiy. The Avs have had 9 days off as well between series, which I believe will throw a proverbial "monkey wrench" into their offensive rythym. For all the reasons listed above, the play is Tampa on the puckline! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-15-22 | Pirates +1.5 v. Cardinals | 6-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 46 m | Show | |
8* PIRATES RUNLINE (SPECIAL) I like betting on motivated teams. The Pirates will be hungry here to snap a 9 game slide. That includes the first 4 games here in St. Louis, including both games of yesterday's double-header, 3-1 and 9-1. Note that Pittsburgh is 7-3 in its last 10 in trying to avenge 3 or more straight losses against an opponent though. Jack Flaherty makes his long-awaited season-debut for the Cardinals and will be somewhat under a leash. That leaves the door open for Pirates' rookie Roansy Contreras, who is 1-1 with a 2.57 ERA and who is making his 6th career start. In a game that I see being decided late, or even in extras, the correct call is the Pirates on the runline option! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-15-22 | Twins v. Mariners +1.5 | Top | 5-0 | Loss | -140 | 9 h 18 m | Show |
10* MARINERS RUNLINE (BOB) Marco Gonzalez has had troubles with the Twins in the past, but he comes in on fine form and I expect him to match Minnesota's Sonny Gray inning for inning. Gray is 3-1 with a 2.41 ERA, while Gonzalez is 3-6 with a 3.63 ERA. Both come in off strong starts and I'm expecting a classic "duel" here in the Pacific Northwest on Wednesday night. Seattle managed the 7-6 win last night and all signs point to a similar battle here; the play is Seattle on the runline option! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-14-22 | Angels +1.5 v. Dodgers | Top | 0-2 | Loss | -109 | 15 h 59 m | Show |
10* ANGELS RUNLINE (ASSASSIN) Tony Gonsolin has been unbelievable for the Dodgers. He's 7-0 with a 1.58 ERA. Noah Syndergaard has looked sharp of late for the Angels, he's 4-4 with a 3.69 ERA. Gonsolin's numbers though are just a little TOO perfect if you know what I mean. I can't see him keeping up this pace much longer. Syndergaard is 1-1 with a 3.29 ERA in 5 career starts vs. the Dodgers, so I'm expecting a classic "duel" here. I say Syndergaard can match the overacheiving Gonsolin inning for inning and in a scenario like that, I'm laying this small price for the extra 1.5 runs in my back pocket; the play is the Angels on the runline option! AAA Sports |

06-14-22 | A's +1.5 v. Red Sox | 1-6 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 6 m | Show | |
8* A's RUNLINE (SPECIAL) Oakland snapped an 8-game sldie with a 10-5 win at Cleveland, but then promptly fell 6-3 in the series finale. Losers of 9 of their last 10, I love the visiting side to dig deep here and to, at the very least, keep this one nice and close and to post a comfortable ATS cover. Nick Pivetta is 5-5 with a 3.78 ERA for the Red Sox, and while he's been super sharp of late (5-1, 1.96 ERA over his last 7 starts), regression is imminent in my opinion. He's also pitched two career seven shutout innings vs. the A's. I say these sparkling numbers are unrealistic and I like the A's to finally get some revenge at the plate. Jared Koenig is 0-1 with a 9.00 ERA after allowing 4 runs over 4 innings in his MLB debut vs. Atlanta. I expect him to settle down here though. For all the reasons listed above, the play is the A's on the runline! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-14-22 | Orioles +1.5 v. Blue Jays | 6-5 | Win | 100 | 12 h 9 m | Show | |
8* ORIOLES RUNLINE (TOP) I had a play on the Orioles on the runline option last night, and that was an admittedly poor call. I love Baltimore to bounce back today though. Jordan Lyles is 3-5 with a 4.97 ERA, while Yusei Kikuchi is 2-2 with a 4.48 ERA for the Jays. I say these vets are pretty much a "wash." The difference today though? Not that Baltimore is 4-1 in its last 5 in trying to revenge a road loss against an opponent in which it conceded 10 or more runs in! But I'm not calling for an outright upset. In a game that I see being decided late or even in extras, I'll grab the visitors on the runline option! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-13-22 | Celtics +4 v. Warriors | Top | 94-104 | Loss | -110 | 37 h 2 m | Show |
10* CELTICS (GOW) This has been an exciting, back and forth series. Game 5 though I'm expecting the tightest and most competitive game yet. Yes, Stephen Curry has been phenomenal, but the trio of Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Al Horford has also been amazing. Boston has been great on the road as well, going 8-3 SU so far. The Celtics always respond well after a loss and they have the No. 1 defense, conceding just 104.5 PPG. The Warriors allow just 105.5. Golden State managed the win in Game 4 despite shooting 44%. Boston has already won on this floor and I expect another "nail biter" on Monday night as well; the official call will be to grab as many points as you can! AAA Sports |

06-13-22 | Pirates +1.5 v. Cardinals | Top | 5-7 | Loss | -115 | 12 h 30 m | Show |
10* PIRATES RUNLINE (ASSASSIN) In a game that I believe will be decided late, or even in extras, I'm going to suggest laying the small price for the extra 1.5 runs in your back pocket. Zach Thompson (0-0, 2.25 ERA) gets the nod for the Cardinals. This is his first start in the big leagues and second appearance. The Pirates won't be lacking for motivation here on the heels of a season-worst 6-game slide. Mitch Keller (2-5, 5.26) has turned the corner as well for the Pirates and is sneaking in under the radar, as note that he's posted a 2.65 ERA and struck out 18 over his last 17 innings of work, going 2-0 over his last 4 trips to the hill. He's also a very respectable 2-1 with a 4.26 ERA in 5 career starts vs. St. Louis. While the outright is possible, the value here for the hungry Pirates on the runline option is just too good to turn down! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-13-22 | Orioles +1.5 v. Blue Jays | 1-11 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 55 m | Show | |
9* ORIOLES RUNLINE (SPECIAL) Kyle Bradish (1-3, 6.45 ERA) gets the nod for the underdog visiting side and he'll face Alek Manoah (7-1, 1.81) of the Jays. Bradish hasn't faced the Jays yet. The Orioles have won each of his last 3 starts, so he's sneaking in under the radar here. Manoah went 6 scoreless in his last outing. He's faced the Orioles in the past and had success, but I believe Bradish can in fact match his opponent inning for inning tonight. In a scenario like that, I absolutely love the underdog in that situation. And for this pick, we're going grab the visitors on the runline option (+1.5) instead! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-12-22 | Mets +1.5 v. Angels | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 11 h 13 m | Show | |
6* METS RUNLINE (SPECIAL) The Mets have lost 3 of their last 4. They snapped a 2-game slide with a 7-3 win in this series opener, before then falling 11-6 last night. I'm expecting a much tighter game in the finale though, so beause of that, I'm going to lay this larger price for the extra 1.5 runs in my back pocket. The starters here are a "wash" in my opinion. Taijuan Walker is 3-2 with a 3.28 ERA for the Mets, while Patrick Sandoval is 3-1 with a 2.81 ERA for the Halos. The Angels offense revolves around Trout and Ohtani, while the Mets are solid 1 through 9. Expect Walker to keep Trout and Ohtani limited here and for the Mets to, at the very least, take this one right down to the wire; the play is New York on the runline option! AAA Sports |

06-11-22 | Edmonton Elks +4.5 v. BC | Top | 15-59 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 49 m | Show |
10* ELKS (BLOOD-BATH) Both teams were terrible last year. The Lions were 5-9 and the Elks were 3-11. They split 2 games here last year. The Lions posted the 43-10 win in the final one, but previous to that the Elks had won and covered in 4 straight in this series. Look for things to return to norm here. Nick Arbuckle takes over snaps for the Elks thi syear and he'll have something to prove after coming over from Toronto. Nathan Rourke is nothing to write home about for the Lions though, he had 3 TD's and 5 picks last year. I say BC is getting too much respect here on the "home field advantage." While I do think the outright is possible, let's grab the points and the Elks! AAA Sports |

06-11-22 | Rangers +1.5 v. Lightning | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 13 h 9 m | Show |
10* RANGERS PUCKLINE (ASSASSIN) This has been an interesting series. The Rangers won the first two games, but then Tampa has won the last three. I've played Tampa in each of the last two games, but I'm expecting a "nail-biter" here in Game 6. The NHL would love nothing more than to see another Game 7 here and while that may or may not happen, I do expect this one to be decided late, or even in extra time. Note that New York is 7-2 in its last 9 in trying to revenge a home loss against an opponent in which it was held to 1 or less goals in also. For all the reasons listed above, the plays is the Rangers on the puckline option! AAA Sports |
|||||||
06-11-22 | Rangers +1.5 v. White Sox | 11-9 | Win | 100 | 7 h 52 m | Show | |
9* RANGERS RUNLINE (SPECIAL) I believe the Rangers have a legitimate shot at winning this one outright, but at this very fair price, I'm going to grab the visitors on the runline option. Martin Perez (4-2, 1.56 ERA) has been superb for the Rangers this season. He'll be opposed by Lucas Giolito (4-2, 3.54.) Giolito is coming off a win over the Rays on Sunday, despite allowing 5 runs off 8 hits. The current form of Perez makes the Rangers on the runline the correct call on Saturday afternoon! AAA Sports |

06-10-22 | Warriors v. Celtics -3.5 | Top | 107-97 | Loss | -115 | 14 h 22 m | Show |
10* CELTICS (BLOOD-BATH) I had a play on Boston in Game 3 and I'm right back on them here in Game 4 as well. Golden State lacks size and strength to handle these defensive-minded Celtics. The combination of Al Horford, Jaylen Brown and Jason Tatum is difficult to slow down offensively as well, as each is able to create their own offense. Draymond Green played terribly for the Warriors and is more of a distraction now than anything else. Golden State's weakness this season has been its play on the road where it went just 22-19. Boston on the other hand went 28-13 at home. With a chance to put the Warriors on the brink of elimination, I look for this underrated Celtics team to lay the hammer down again in Game 4; the play is Boston! AAA Sports |

06-10-22 | Blue Jays v. Tigers +1.5 | Top | 10-1 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 26 m | Show |
10* TIGERS RUNLINE (BOB) The Jays have been playing great, but I still feel they're over-priced here. In a contest that I see being decided late, or even in extras, I think Detroit with the extra run-and-a-half is the wise move. Jose Berrios is 4-2, despite an elevated 5.24 ERA. Elvin Rodriguez will look to bounce back after his MLB debut vs. the Yankees didn't go to plan, allowing 10 runs over 5 innings. He learned after that he was tipping his pitches: "I didn't realize I was doing that, but I saw the video," Rodriguez said. "Yeah, I was tipping. They figured me out. I'm going to work in my next bullpen at trying to do the same movement." After getting swept by the Yanks, the Tigers enter with momentum here after B2B wins over the Pirates. Toronto took 2 of 3 from KC, but enters off an 8-4 series finale loss on Wednesday. Berrios is 5-2 lifetiome against the Tigers (11 starts), despite a 5.28 ERA. Give me the hungry home side on the runline option! AAA Sports |

06-09-22 | Montreal v. Calgary -3.5 | Top | 27-30 | Loss | -105 | 13 h 47 m | Show |
10* STAMPEDERS (ASSASSIN) The CFL is back with a full 18 game schedule. Calgary went 8-6 last year before bowing out in the WCF. The Alouettes went 7-7 and lost in the East semifinal. These teams met in Week 3 last year and Calgary won by a score of 28-22. I expect a similar outcome here. Vernon Adams Jr. is back under center for the Als. Trevor Harris is the backup. William Stanback led the CFL with 1,116 rushing yards. Last year though was the first time since 2007 that the Stamps failed to win in double digits. Bo Levi Mitchell is back under center and healthy though and I expect the home side to hit the ground running. Calgary steamrolled the Lions (41-6) and the Elks (37-7) in the preseason and I expect that momentum to get carried over here; lay the points, the play is the Stamps! AAA Sports |

06-09-22 | Dodgers v. White Sox +1.5 | Top | 11-9 | Loss | -155 | 6 h 58 m | Show |
10* WHITE SOX RUNLINE (TOP) It's the rubber match of this 3-game interleague series. The Dodgers broke their 3-game slide with a 4-1 win yesterday, but I think they'll once again have their hands full here on Thursday. Tyler Anderson is an unrealistic 7-0 with a 2.59 ERA for the Dodgers. Can anyone say "regression!" Dylan Cease counters for the home side and he's 4-2 with a 3.39 ERA. He hasn't won since May 17th, so he won't be lacking for motivation here either (is 4-4 with a very respectable 3.24 ERA in 10 career interleague starts.) In a contet that I see being decided late, or even in extras, I'm laying what I deem to be a very reasonable mid-sized price for the extra 1.5 runs in my back pocket; the play is the White Sox on the runline option! AAA Sports |

06-08-22 | Rockies +1.5 v. Giants | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 15 h 52 m | Show |
10* ROCKIES RUNLINE (BOB) Colorado snapped a 4-game slide with a 5-3 win here in yesterday's series opener and I think it can keep the momentum rolling on Wednesday. Antonio Senzatela is 2-3 with a 5.40 ERA. The Rockies are actually second in MLB with a team average of .261, third in on base-percentage with .327 ad 11th in slugging percentage with .402. The Giants are 12th in team batting average at .244. They're also 24th on the mound with a collective 4.30 ERA. Alex Wood is just 3-5 with a 4.66 ERA. Senzatela was rouged up in his last outing, but I expect the vet to settle down and bounce back here after that "outlier." Grab the Rockies on the runline option! AAA Sports |

10* WHITE SOX RUNLINE (GOM) While I do think the hungry home side has a legitimate shot at winning outright, I feel the value of grabbing the extra 1.5 runs at this price is just too good to turn down. I like this pitching matchup, as I definitely feel it favors the home side. The visitors go with Mitch White, who is 1-1 with a 4.79 ERA. He hasn't been very impressive. He'll be opposed by Michael Kopech, who is 1-2 with a 2.20 ERA (he pitched 4 scoreless innings vs. the Cubs in his only other interleague start this season.) Kopech looks to bounce back here at home in this favorable matchup. In a game that I see being decided late, or even in extras, I'm laying the price for the extra 1.5 runs in my back pocket; the play is the White Sox on the runline option! AAA Sports |

8* ROYALS RUNLINE (DESTRUCTION) I had a play on the Royals on the runline option yesterday and that unfortunately was a bad call, as Toronto won by a score of 8-0. However, I love how this sets up for KC to bounce back, but at this price, I'm once again going to grab the extra 1.5 runs. Alek Manoah is 6-1 with a 1.98 ERA for the Jays. He's been unbelievable, but regression is now imminent. He'll be opposed by Brad Keller, who despite having just a 1-6 record, has posted a very respectable 4.15 ERA. I say these starters are more evenly matched that what their records would indicate, so in a contest that I see being decided late or even in extras, I'm going to recommend playing KC on the runline option!

06-06-22 | Blue Jays v. Royals +1.5 | 8-0 | Loss | -108 | 15 h 50 m | Show | |
8* ROYALS RUNLINE (SPECIAL) The Jays won 8 in a row, but they dropped 2 of 3 to the Twins at home over the weekend. I say they struggle here on the road against this hungry KC side though. The Royals will be motivated here to get back on track after losing 7 of their last 10. That includes a 7-4 setback here yesterday to the Astros. Ross Stripling is 1-1 with a 4.22 ERA for the Jays, while Daniel Lynch is 2-4 with a 4.81 ERA for the Royals. I give the slight nod in advantage here between equally matched starters to Lynch, because of the friendly confines. In a game that I see possibly even going to extra innings, I'm laying the very reasonable price for the extra 1.5 runs in my back pocket; the play is KC on the runline! AAA Sports |

06-06-22 | Mariners +1.5 v. Astros | Top | 7-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 40 m | Show |
10* MARINERS RUNLINE (ASSASSIN) Seattle has won 3 of its last 4. It took 2 of 3 at Texas over the weekend, including yesterday's 6-5 victory. I think the Mariners keep the foot on the gas here vs. the high-powered Astros. The M's go with Robbie Ray, who is 4-6 with a 4.93 ERA, while the Astros counter with Christian Javier, who is 3-2 with a 2.41 ERA. I like Ray to settle down here and to match Javier inning for inning. Look for Seattle to carry over its recent offensive momentum and, at the very least, deliver a solid ATS cover; the play is the M's on the runline option! AAA Sports |

06-05-22 | Celtics v. Warriors -4 | Top | 88-107 | Win | 100 | 37 h 44 m | Show |
10* WARRIORS (ART OF WAR) I had a play on the Warriors in Game 1, and while that didn't turn out the way I hoped, I'm expecting Golden State to make the necessary adjustments here in Game 2 to not only win this game, but to do so by a significant margin. The Celtics have been playing extremely well, but I expect fatigue to be a factor here. Boston has earned a split in Golden State and I think comes in tired and complacent. The Warriors looked great for 3 quarters in Game 1, but then fell apart uncharacteristically in the 4th quarter. Expect a big bounce-back from Curry and company and lay these points with confidence; the play is Golden State! AAA Sports |

06-05-22 | Cardinals v. Cubs +1.5 | Top | 5-3 | Loss | -133 | 13 h 38 m | Show |
10* CUBS RUNLINE (NL RL BOB) The Cubs have been trading wins and losses over their last 4 games and after a 7-4 defeat here yesterday, I'm expecting this pattern to continue tonight. St. Louis has a night off before an IL series at Tampa and I expect it to get caught looking ahead. Adam Wainwright is 5-4 with a 2.75 ERA for the Cardinals, while Justin Steele is 1-5 with a 5.40 ERA for the Cubs. Look for Steele to get back on track here at home and to, at they very least, match Wainwright inning for inning. In a scenario like that, the pendulum swings in favor of the underrated underdog. In this case, let's lay the reasonable price for the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket; the play is Chicago on the runline! AAA Sports |

06-04-22 | Guardians v. Orioles +1.5 | Top | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 9 h 31 m | Show |
10* ORIOLES RUNLINE (BOB) Cleveland swept the Royals at home and then took the first game of this series in Baltimore yesterday by a score of 6-3. The Orioles have lost 2 in a row, but I expect them to bounce back here. Tyler Wells gets the call for the home side, and he has a solid 3.71 ERA. The visitors counter with Triston McKenzie, who sports a 2.65 ERA (tempered though by his 3.85 FIP.) This one is evenly matched according to the bookmakers, which makes the "runline" option at this great price the savvy call in my opinion; the play is Baltimore on the runline! AAA Sports |

06-04-22 | Tigers +1.5 v. Yankees | 0-3 | Loss | -100 | 6 h 36 m | Show | |
9* TIGERS RUNLINE (SPECIAL) Detroit swept Minnesota in three straight before yesterday's humbling 13-0 defeat here. Note though that Detroit is 7-2 in its last 9 in trying to revenge a shutout road loss against an opponent. I expect this one to be much more competitive though. Beau Brieske is 0-4 with a 5.25 ERA for the Tigers. Thankfully for Brikeske, he has a solid bullpen which has posted a 3.01 ERA (2nd best in the majors.) The Yanks turn to Luis Severino, who is 3-1 with a 3.38 ERA. I say Brieske brings his "A" game today and matches his counterpart. Look for the hungry Tigers to sneak in under the radar this afternoon; the play though is Detroit on the runline! AAA Sports |

06-03-22 | Red Sox v. A's +1.5 | 7-2 | Loss | -125 | 15 h 9 m | Show | |
8* A'S RUNLINE (ROUT) Boston is on the West Coast this weekend. This pitching matchup is more evenly matched than what the oddsmakers are trying to lead us to believe. Great value here laying the small price for the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket. I can easily see this game going to extra innings. James Kaprielian is 0-2 with a 5.93 ERA this season for the A's. Expect the veteran to settle down here at home. And I think the A's can get a few runs off of Boston's Nathan Eovaldi, who is 1-2 with a 3.91 ERA in 8 career starts vs. Oakland. For all the reasons listed above, grab the home side on the runline option! AAA Sports |

06-03-22 | Padres +1.5 v. Brewers | Top | 7-0 | Win | 100 | 14 h 42 m | Show |
10* PADRES RUNLINE (ASSASSIN) The Padres are 30-21 and they're sending Joe Musgrove to the hill. He's 5-0 with a 1.86 ERA. The home side counters with Corbin Burnes, who is 3-2 with a 1.95 ERA. I expect these starters to battle DEEP into the latter innings. In a contest that I see being decided late, or even in extras, my official recommendation for this selection will be to lay the price for the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket; the play is the Padres on the runline option! AAA Sports |

06-02-22 | Oilers +1.5 v. Avalanche | Top | 0-4 | Loss | -145 | 12 h 50 m | Show |
10* OILERS PUCKLINE (BLOOD-BATH) Colorado prevailed by a score of 8-6 in the Game 1. I'm expecting another exciting back-and-forth affair in Game 2 as well, except I believe it'll be decided late, or even in extra time. The Oilers have responded well off losses, both during the regular season and the playoffs. Also note that Edmonton is 7-2 in its last 9 in trying to revenge a road loss against an opponent in which it conceded 6 or more goals in. For all the reasons listed above, lay the reasonable price for the extra 1.5 goals in your back pocket! AAA Sports |

06-02-22 | Twins v. Tigers +1.5 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 5 h 24 m | Show | |
8* TIGERS RUNLINE (SPECIAL) While I do think an outright victory is possible, in the end I'll recommend to lay the very reasonable price for the extra 1.5 runs in your back pocket. Minnesota has lost 3 of the first 4 games of this five-game series vs. the Tigers. Rookie Alex Faedo is 1-2 with a 3.00 ERA for the Tigers and he's making his 6th start of the year. Most recently he allowed 2 runs over 6 innings in an unfortunate loss to the Guardians: "I was happy with the way I threw the baseball," Faedo said after. "Going up against a guy like (Shane) Bieber, you've got to be sharp. He's a Cy Young guy. He had a good day, and he beat us." The visitors counter with the erratic Chris Archer, who is 0-2 with a 4.19 ERA. He's not pitched more than 4 1/3's innings in any of his 9 starts. Look for Detroit to take advantage; the play is the Tigers on the runline! AAA Sports |

06-01-22 | Astros v. A's +1.5 | 5-4 | Win | 105 | 9 h 17 m | Show | |
8* A'S RUNLINE (SPECIAL) Justin Verlander is 6-2 with a 2.03 ERA, but he's coming off his worst start of the season, allowing 6 runs off 10 hits in a 6-1 loss to the Mariners on Friday. I think Verlander will struggle to maintain his rosey numbers moving forward. The A's are the "hungrier" revenge-minded dog in this fight. I say that Cole Irvin is equally matched here, as he's 2-2 with a 3.15 ERA. Oakland is off B2B losses here to open this series, but note that it's 7-3 in its last 10 in trying to revenge B2B home losses against an opponent. Great value here with the A's on the runline option! AAA Sports |

05-31-22 | Brewers v. Cubs +1.5 | Top | 7-8 | Win | 100 | 13 h 39 m | Show |
10* CUBS RUNLINE (DESTRUCTION) While I do think an outright victory is possible, my official call will be to lay the reasonable price for the extra 1.5 runs in your back pockets. The Brewers have won 3 straight, including a 7-6 victory in the opener of this series, and then 3-1 in yesterday's contest. That's 2 straight tight games, and all signs once again point to a "nail-biter" here too in my opinion. And after 3 straight losses, clearly Chicago is the "hungrier" dog in this fight. Eric Lauer (5-1, 2.31 ERA), has been unbelievable so far for Milwaukee, but I think his sparkling numbers are unsustainable. Regression is imminent here vs. these revenge-minded Cubbies. Chicago counters with Justin Steele (1-5, 5.40), who like his team, won't be lacking for motivation today as he tries to get untracked. In a contest that'll "come down to the wire," I'm grabbing the home side on the runline option! AAA Sports |

05-31-22 | Nationals +1.5 v. Mets | 0-10 | Loss | -130 | 12 h 39 m | Show | |
8* NATIONALS RUNLINE (SPECIAL) Washington fell 13-5 to the Mets yesterday, but I'm expecting a much closer battle on Tuesday. After 4 straight victories, I expect the Mets to have a bit of a letdown here (note as well that Washington is 7-2 in its last 9 in trying to revenge a road loss against an opponent in which it allowed 10 or more runs in as well.) Patrick Corbin (1-7, 6.30 ERA) won't be lacking for motivation here today. His offense hasn't been a problem, so expect the Nats' to take advantage here in this revenge spot. The home side counters with Trevor Williams (0-3, 4.73), who also hasn't been anything special this season. I think Corbin gets back on track here; that said, the official play is the Nationals on the runline option! AAA Sports |

05-30-22 | Rays v. Rangers +1.5 | Top | 5-9 | Win | 100 | 12 h 21 m | Show |
RANGERS RUNLINE (ASSASSIN) The Rays have the better starting pitcher on the hill, but I like the Rangers to dig deep here and deliver. Drew Rasmussen (5-1, 2.68 ERA) gets the call for the visitors, while Glenn Otto (2-2, 4.91) gets the nod for the home side. Note that Texas is 6-4 the L10 in this series. The Rangers are surging, playing their best baseball of the year, as they're going for their 5th straight win tonight. Texas has scored 23 runs at home over its last 3 games. Look for that impressive offense to once again, at the very least, keep this one close enough to comfortably cover with the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket; the play is Texas on the runline!

10* CELTICS (ART OF WAR) At the start of this series, home floor advantage meant a whole lot. But that trend has changed over the last two, and I'm expecting that trend to continue here. Boston won in Miami in Game 5, but it then fell in Game 6 at home. Look for the C's to dig deep here and to deliver again on the road. Note that Boston is 7-2 ATS in its last 9 in trying to revenge a home loss against an opponent in which it conceded 110 or more points in. We've broken this series down completely from start to finish, but the Celtics depth and their aggressive defensive play gets the job done in Game 7; the play is Boston! AAA Sports |

10* MARINERS RUNLINE (ASSASSIN) While I do think the outright win is possible, I feel more comfortable here laying the very reasonable price for the extra 1.5 runs in our back pockets. Yes, the Astros are out for revenge after dropping the first 2 games of this series, but Seattle is still the "hungrier" team in my estimation. Houston hands the ball to Luis Garcia (3-3, 3.38 ERA), while the home side counters with southpaw Marco Gonzalez (3-3, 3.74.) These starters are a "wash." Look for the surging M's to keep the pedal to the metal on Sunday; the play though is Seattle on the runline! AAA Sports |

8* ROYALS RUNLINE (SPECIAL) In a game that I see being decided late or even in extras, I'm going to grab the visitors on the runline option. Kansas City hands the ball to Zack Greinke (0-3, 4.53 ERA), while the home side counters with Sonny Gray (2-1, 2.60.) Greinke got out to a hot start, but he's cooled off a bit since. Here's a great opportunity to get untracked though against this middle of the pack Twins offense. Gray's sparkling numbers appear unsustainable for much longer. I say a step-back is in order here for the veteran. While I do think the outright win is possible, my official recommendation is indeed KC on the runline! AAA Sports |

05-28-22 | Phillies +1.5 v. Mets | Top | 2-8 | Loss | -180 | 12 h 16 m | Show |
10* PHILLIES RUNLINE (RD) I play favorites. I play underdogs. I play totals. Here I think we're in fact getting great value laying the slightly higher price for the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket. Congrats to everyone that joined me with the Mets last night, my 10* MLB GAME OF THE YEAR. Saturday though I'm going the other way, as I think this one'll be decided late, or even in extras! These starters are evenly matched. Zach Wheeler is 1-3 with a 3.65 ERA for the Phillies, while Taijuan Walker is 2-0 with a 2.70 ERA for the Mets. Regression seems imminent for the veteran Walker though. I'm banking on this being a very tight game, that's why I'm laying the price with the Phillies on the runline option! AAA Sports |

8* CARDS RUNLINE (DESTRUCTION) The Cardinals dropped the opener of this series by a score of 4-3, before then bouncing back in yesterday's 4-2 victory. We've had a couple of lower-scoring tighter battles to open this series, and all signs point to a similar result here as well. Matthew Liberatore is 0-0 with a 7.71 ERA for the Cards. This is his 2nd career outing. He gave up 4 runs over 5 innings to the Pirates in his first start, striking out 3 as well. I expect him to settle down here. Adrian Houser is 3-4 with a 2.98 ERA for the Brewers. He gave up 1 run over 6 innings vs. the Braves in his last outing. Off B2B gems though, I think regression is now in order. In a contest that I see being decided late or in extra innings, I'm laying the price for the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket; the play is the Cards on the runline! AAA Sports |

10* HEAT (ART OF WAR) This has been a very back-and-forth series. As soon as we think we know what's going to happen, one or the other sides bounces back with a big performance. The Celtics have won two straight and can end this series with a victory today. Boston may well indeed go on to win this game outright, but I expect Miami to put up a bitter fight until the end. The Heat are well coached and I expect some major adjustments here. The Celtics have been unbelievable, but they're in unchartered territory here and I have my doubts that they have a killer closing instinct. In a game that I see being decided by whichever team has its hands on the ball last, I'm grabbing the points; the play is Miami! AAA Sports |

10* DIAMONDBACKS RUNLINE (ASSASSIN) Great value here on the home side with the runline option. The 29-14 Dodgers are at the 23-22 Diamondbacks. The Dodgers enter off a 1-0 loss to the Nationals. This is the final series of a 10-day, 3-city road trip for LA. Arizona will look to take advantage, as it comes in on top form, having won 5 of its last 6. The D-Backs had yesterday off to prepare for this one, after sweeping the Royals in 2 games. The Dodgers go with Mitch White tonight. He's 1-0 with a 6.17 ERA. He gave up 3 runs over 2 1/3's innings vs. the Phillies on Saturday. Arizona goes with Humberto Castellanos, who is 3-1 with a 4.29 ERA. In 4 starts this month he's gone 2-0 with an 18:3 K:W. While the outright is possible, the value is just too good to turn down for the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket; the play is Arizona on the runline! AAA Sports |

05-26-22 | Mavs +7 v. Warriors | Top | 110-120 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 19 m | Show |
10* MAVERICKS (RD) The Mavericks finally broke through and won 119-109 in Game 4 to avoid the 4-0 sweep. They've given up some huge leads in two other games in this series, so the Mavericks have definitely been competitive so far. I think they keep the momentum rolling here as well. The Mavericks looked phenomenal in beating the Suns, and now they have a blue-print to do the exact same thing for the Warriors. Golden State won't be panicking, but it'll have its hands full here with this desperate visiting side. I'm not going to call for an outright victory or anything, but in a game that I see being decided late or even in extra time, I'm going to grab the points; the play is the Mavericks! AAA Sports |

6* RANGERS PUCKLINE (SPECIAL) I play underdogs. I play totals. I also play favorites. If I think I'm getting good value playing a favorite, then I have no problem laying chalk. That's the case here. In an evenly matched contest that I see being decided late, or possibly even in extra periods, I'm going to lay the price for the extra 1.5 goals in our back pocket. So far home ice has been key in this series, but that could easily change this evening after the momentum has shifted in favor of the visiting side. New York has made the necessary adjustments to counter Carolina, and I say that it has nothing at all to do with the venue of the contest. Lay the price, the play is the Rangers on the puckline!

10* CELTICS (RD) So far this has been a very back and forth series, but I expect that trend to end today. Boston dominated Game 4 and I expect it to keep the momentum rolling tonight. Miami is a great 3-point shooting team, but this Boston defense is incredible. They limited the Heat to just 33% shooting from the floor. Overall the C's allow just 104.5 PPG. Expect Boston's incredible defensive play to be too much for the Heat to handle down the stretch; the play is the Celtics! AAA Sports |

10* GUARDIANS RUNLINE (ASSASSIN) Cleveland won the opener by a score of 6-1, before the Astros bounced back with a 7-3 victory last night. These starting pitchers are evenly matched though and I'm expecting a much more competitive battle in the finale. Cal Quantrill is 1-2 with a 3.48 ERA for Cleveland. He most recently allowed 1 run over 7 innings in a win over the Reds. Christian Javier is 2-2 with a 2.87 ERA for the Astros. He gave up 1 run over 6 innings to the Raners in his last outing. In a game that I see being decided late or even in extras, I'm laying the very reasonable price for the extra 1.5 runs in my back pocket; the play is Cleveland on the runline! AAA Sports |

With a chance to end the series here and now and get a few days rest until the Conference Finals, I expect Colorado to not only win this game, but to do so in blowout fashion. Ville Husso had a 25-7-6 record with a 2.56 GAA and .919 SV% for the Blues. Jordan Binnington is injured and out for St. Louis. Darcy Kuemper had a 37-12-4 record with a 2.54 GAA and a .921 SV% for the Avalanche. Look for Colorado to put the foot on the gas from start to finish; the play is the Avs on the puckline!

10* BLUES PUCKLINE (ASSASSIN) The Avs have a 2-1 series lead here after their 5-2 victory in Game 3. St. Louis though is 7-2 in its last 9 in trying to revenge a 3 goals or greater home loss against an opponent. This has been a very competitive series. Despite the lop-sided loss last time out, Blues' goaltender Jordan Binnington still ranks No. 1 in the playoffs with a 1.72 GAA. It's do or die for Binnington and company (essentially.) In a game that I see being decided late (or even in extra time), I'm laying the price for the extra 1.5 goals in our back pocket; the play is St. Louis on the puckline! AAA Sports |

10* CELTICS (RD) This has been a back-and-forth series and I'm looking for Game 4 to follow suit. The Celtics will be risking life and limb today to try and even this series back up. Off the 109-103 Game 3 loss, note that Boston is 7-2 ATS in its last 9 in trying to revenge a home loss against an opponent in which it was held to 105 or less points in. Boston still ranks first across most defensive stats, including leading the league in scoring defense. The Celtics are also 5-0 ATS in their last five following a SU loss. Look for the home side to double down defensively and then to pull away down the stretch for the comfortable win and cover; the play is the Celtics! AAA Sports |

10* WARRIORS (U OF THE U) Dallas is on the ropes. Luka Doncic is likely the best player on the floor in this series, but Golden State's offensive depth is just too much for the Mavericks to handle. Andrew Wiggins is out for the Warriors tonight, but it's just "next man up" mentality. Dallas threw its best possible punch at Golden State, and still came up short. I predict another tight battle here and I think it'll come down to the wire, literally the last team touching the ball is going to win type deal. And in a scenario like that, I'll gladly grab the points; the play is the Warriors! AAA Sports |

10* CELTICS (ASSASSIN) The Celtics looked a lot better with Marcus Smart and Al Horford in the line-up in Game 2, and I believe that with the series shifting to Boston, that the home side will build on that performance with another big win and cover and in Game 3. The Heat finished as No. 1 in the East, but there's no question that they were better at home than on the road (24-17 away.) Boston's tough defensive play, combined with the strong play of Jayson Tatum will be just TOO much for this now struggling HEat team to handle on Saturday night; lay the points! AAA Sports |

10* BLUES PUCKLINE (RED DRAGON) I'll argue that St. Louis has definitely been the better team in thi series. The Blues fell in OT in Game 1, but then in Game 2 they laid the hammer down with the 4-1 victory. Now back home, St. Louis is getting very little respect from the oddsmakers here. We can take advantage of that, but we'll lay the price here for the extra 1.5 goals in our back pocket. Great value overall on this line, considering the situation. Yes, the Avs dominated in the regular season, but now that the playoffs are here they're struggling defensively. Look for that to continue on Saturday night; the play is St. Louis on the puckline!

10* MAVERICKS (BLOOD-BATH) Game 1 was evenly matched at half time, but then Golden State pulled away in the second. I expect a full four-quarter effort from the Mavericks tonight though. Dallas had an uncharacteristically horrible shooting night from several players, and I don't expect that to happen twice. The Mavericks now have to make adjustments after the 112-87 Game 1 loss, but they've done well in this spot for bettors by going 7-2 ATS in their last 9 in trying to revenge a road loss against an opponent in which it was held to 90 or less points in. Much like the Heat's victory in Game 1 of their series with Boston, I'm expecting a letdown here from Golden State as well in Game 2. I'm not predicting an outright upset, but this one comes down to the wire; grab the points! AAA Sports |

Carolina was fortunate to come out on top in OT, getting a late third-period goal to force the extra time. We can expect an identical sort of game to play out here as well. Carolina has some goaltending issues now as well, with Frederik Anderson still missing games due to injury. The Rangers are still 35-17 in their last 52 in this series and I think they bounce-back here; that said, let's lay the price for the puckline option! AAA Sports |

05-20-22 | Reds +1.5 v. Blue Jays | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 12 h 9 m | Show |
10* REDS RUNLINE (ASSASSIN) Both teams are struggling at the plate. I think this opening matchup is much more evenly matched than what the oddsmakers are trying to lead us to believe. I like Luis Castillo here for the REds starting. He 0-1 with a 5.59 ERA, but he's faced Toronto 7 times in his career and has gone 4-2 with a 3.70 ERA. The Jays only average 3.68 RPG, so here's a perfect opponent for Castillo to get untracked against. The home side goes with Hyun-Jin Ryu, who is 0-0 with a 9.00 ERA and who has never faced Cincinnati. I say this one gets decided late, or even in extras; because of that, let's grab the Reds on the runline option! AAA Sports |

05-19-22 | Celtics +3.5 v. Heat | Top | 127-102 | Win | 100 | 14 h 2 m | Show |
10* CELTICS (RED DRAGON) I had a play on Boston in Game 1 and while that selection came up short, I believe that the visiting side will bounce back and, at the very least, take this contest right down to the wire. Boston lost 118-107 in Game 1, but it's done well in this spot for bettors, as it's 7-2 ATS in its last 9 in trying to revenge a road loss against an opponent. Marcus Smart and Al Horford both could play after missing Game 1, which would shift this line even further towards a "pick em." Miami started off the first half slow, then came out like gang-busters in the second half of Game 1. Look for Boston's defense to respond and answer the bell here in this important contest. And while I do absolutely feel an outright win is possible, my official call will be to grab as many points as you can; the play is Boston! AAA Sports |

05-19-22 | Rangers +1.5 v. Astros | Top | 1-5 | Loss | -115 | 13 h 19 m | Show |
10* RANGERS RUNLINE (DESTRUCTION) The Rangers fly in under the radar here. They're off a 3-game sweep of the Angels, which featured a dramatic walk off win on Wednesday. The Astros come in with little momentum after going just 1-2 in Boston. Texas plays with revenge here after losing 3 of 4 at home to the Astros at the start of the season. But this Rangers line-up is raking now, led by Corey Seager with 8 home runs. Glenn Otto is 1-1 with a 6.38 ERA for the Rangers. He was lit up at Boston in his last start, but I think he settles down here. Framber Valdez is 2-2 with a 2.93 ERA for the Astrros. Texas comes in with confidence. It's seeing the ball well. I think the oddsmakers are slow in recognizing this; the play is Texas on the runline! AAA Sports |

05-18-22 | Oilers +1.5 v. Flames | Top | 6-9 | Loss | -175 | 15 h 28 m | Show |
10* OILERS PUCKLINE (2ND RND. PL GOY) Both of these inter-provincial teams needed seven games to advance to the second round. Each looked great at times, and very ordinary in others in their opening round. The Oilers were down 3-2 in their series to the Kings, but they won the final 2 games and I think they carry that momentum over here. Calgary clinched its series with a 3-2 win in Game 7 at home over the Stars. These teams have been very equal on both ends of the ice during the playoffs, but note that Calgary is just 1-4 in its last 5 conference semi-finals contests, while Edmonton is 7-3 in its last 10 road games. This one is going to come down to the wire, or even go into sudden death OT; I'll lay the price for the extra 1.5 goals in my back pocket! AAA Sports |
|||||||
05-18-22 | Tigers +1.5 v. Rays | Top | 1-6 | Loss | -137 | 7 h 42 m | Show |
10* TIGERS RUNLINE (DESTRUCTION) The Tigers won the first game of this series by a score of 3-2, beore Tampa responded in yesterday's 8-1 victory. For the finale, I'm expecting a much tighter game. Eduardo Rodriguez gets the call for the Tigers, and he just threw 6.2 shutout innings in a win over Baltimore in his last outing. The home side counters with Drew Rasmussen, who also comes in off a gem, holding the Jays to just one run over 5.2 innings of work. These pitchers are evenly matched. As stated off the top, all signs point to this contest perhaps even going into extra innings; beause of that, let's lay the reasonable price for the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket! AAA Sports |

05-17-22 | Celtics +2 v. Heat | Top | 107-118 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 2 m | Show |
10* CELTICS (GOW) The Boston Celtics will be without the services of Marcus Smart for Game 1, but I still think they'll find a way to win this game. The quick turnaround is going to work in Boston's favor today after its Game 7 win over the Bucks. The Heat on the other hand come out flat here in my estimation after eliminating the 76ers in just six games. Boston went 2-1 in this matchup during the regular season. Jayson Tatum is a matchup issue. Kyle Lowry being out for Miami is big here at this point of the Playoffs. I expect Boston to draw first blood in the ECF! AAA Sports |

05-17-22 | Mariners +1.5 v. Blue Jays | 0-3 | Loss | -165 | 12 h 25 m | Show | |
8* MARINERS RUNLINE (DESTRUCTION) Toronto took Game 1 of this series last night by a score of 6-2, but I expect a much tighter affair here on Tuesday. Both teams are in need of a win here, but in a contest that I think'll be decided late or in extra innings, I'm going to lay the price for the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket. The bottom line here is, I think Logan Gilbert is the correct call in this starting pitching matchup over Jose Berrios. Gilbert is 4-1 with a 2.13 ERA, while Berrios is 2-2 with a 5.82 ERA. The M's have much more than just a "punchers chance" in this one; the play is Seattle on the runline option! AAA Sports |

05-17-22 | Lightning +1.5 v. Panthers | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 12 h 21 m | Show | |
6* LIGHTNING PUCKLINE (SPECIAL) This'll be an exciting series. Yes, the Bolts just had to go 7 games with Leafs, but I expect them to carry over that momentum here and to catch the Panthers a little flat-footed. Florida has a small advantage in the rest department, but not by much. Experience at this point of the playoffs is key. Honestly, I think the Lightning have a legitimate shot at taking Game 1 outright. However, at this decent mid-sized price, I'm going to gladly lay it for the extra 1.5 goals in our back pocket; the play is Tampa on the puckline! AAA Sports |

05-16-22 | Angels v. Rangers +1.5 | Top | 4-7 | Win | 100 | 14 h 44 m | Show |
10* RANGERS RUNLINE (GOW) The Angels just took 3 of 4 from the A's over the weekend, while the Rangers dropped 2 of 3 to Boston. Texas was blown out in the first 2, but then bounced back with a blowout win of its own on Sunday. LA took 3 of 4 in early April, so the Rangers are out for revenge this week. Noah Syndergaard takes the mound for the visitors, an dhe owns a 2.45 ERA over 5 starts. He'll be opposed by Jon Gray, who owns a 5.51 ERA. Texas has actually done well in this spot for bettors, going 7-2 in its last 9 after scoring 10 or more runs in its previous game. This one will be decided late, or even in extras, so I'm laying the price for the extra 1.5 runs in my back pocket; the play is the Rangers on the runline! AAA Sports |

05-16-22 | Mariners +1.5 v. Blue Jays | 2-6 | Loss | -140 | 13 h 55 m | Show | |
9* MARINERS (RL BOB) The Mariners are 16-19 and the Blue Jays are 18-17. Toronto is off a series loss in Tampa, and fell 3-0 on Sunday. The M's took 2 of threa the Mets over the weekend. Chris Flexen is just 1-5, despite a decent 4.24 ERA for the Mariners this year. Overall the Mariners have posted a decent 3.74 collective ERA. The Jays return home after a poor 2-7 road trip. Yusei Kikuchi is 1-1 with a 4.15 ERA for the Jays. I believe these starters are a "wash." In a scenario like that, and in a contest that I expect to be decided late (or perhaps even in extra innings), let's lay the price for the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket; the play is Seattle on the runline!

05-16-22 | Yankees v. Orioles +1.5 | 6-2 | Loss | -100 | 13 h 49 m | Show | |
8* ORIOLES RUNLINE (SPECIAL) The lowly Baltimore Orioles won't be lacking for motivation today after 3 straight losses to Detroit over the weekend. The Yanks come in complacent after winning 7 of their la 10, including a 5-1 win at the White Sox yesterday. Luis Severino is 2-0 with a 4.08 ERA over 6 starts for New York, while Kyle Bradish is 1-1 with a 4.24 ERA over 4 starts for the Orioles. Baltimore though has done exceptionally well in this spot for bettors by going 7-2 ATS in its last 9 at home. Conversely, the Evil Empire has gone just 4-6 ATS in its last 10 overall. Look for Baltimore to jump on on this complacent Yanks side and to possibly even win outright; the play is the Orioles on the runline option! AAA Sports |

05-15-22 | Mavs +6.5 v. Suns | Top | 123-90 | Win | 100 | 54 h 58 m | Show |
10* MAVERICKS (ASSASSIN) This has been a back-and-forth series, and I'm expecting a very tight affair here in Game 7. Every game in this series has been won by the home team, while also going 6-0 ATS. I say this lop-sided trend ends this evening. The Mavericks role players are going to step up here. The Mavs relentless defensive attack will be in full effect from the opening tip, until the final horn. Phoenix lacks that killer instinct, and while the Suns may well indeed go on to win this contest, expect it to be a real "nail-biter!" The play is Dallas! AAA Sports |

05-15-22 | Giants v. Cardinals +1.5 | Top | 6-15 | Win | 100 | 12 h 42 m | Show |
10* CARDINALS RUNLINE (ASSASSIN) San Fran won the opener 8-2 and then St. Louis won 4-0 yesterday. I expect a much tighter game here in the finale, and that's why I'm going to lay the very reasonable price for the extra 1.5 runs in my back pocket. Carlos Rodon is 4-1 with a 1.80 ERA for the Giants, but I expect regression to kick in sooner, rather than later. The Cards counter with veteran Adam Wainwright, who is 3-3 with a 3.18 ERA and who I like here in friendly confines. Note as well that St. Louis is actually 8-3 in its last 11 off a shutout home victory. For all the reasons listed above, the play is St. Louis on the runline! AAA Sports |

05-15-22 | Penguins +1.5 v. Rangers | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 12 h 47 m | Show | |
6* PENGUINS PUCKLINE (DESTRUCTION) I play underdogs. I play totals. I play favorites. In a game that I think'll be decided in the final moments, or perhaps even in extra periods, I'm going to lay the larger price for the extra 1.5 goals in my back pocket. Sidney Crosby is listed as questionable, but whether he plays or not, these teams are very evenly matched. Pittsburgh is 7-2 in its last 9 in trying to revenge 2 straight losses against an opponent, and while the Pens may fall, I expect this one to be a tight battle until the end; the play Pittsburgh on the puckline!

10* KINGS PUCKLINE (BOB) An unprecedented 3 Game 7's being played tonight, including this one between the Kings and Oilers. Edmonton rallied to force a pivotal Game 7 in this series in LA. This has been a back-and-forth series and I expect Game 7 to be the most competitive so far. Edmonton's weakness is on the defensive end, and that's where Jonathan Quick and the Kings have the clear advantage. They say defense wins championships. In a game that I see being decided late, or even in extra time, my strongest NHL play of the night will be to lay the very reasonable price for the extra 1.5 goals in our back pocket! AAA Sports |

05-14-22 | Yankees v. White Sox +1.5 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 13 h 4 m | Show | |
8* WHITE SOX RUNLINE (SPECIAL) The White Sox had won 7 of 8 before dropping the first 2 of this series. They fell 15-7 in the first game and 10-4 yesterday. I expect a much tighter affair here. Jordan Montgomery is 0-1 with a 2.90 ERA for the Yanks. He's been solid. Dallas Keuchel is 2-3 with a 6.86 ERA for the White Sox. He's uncharacteristically struggled so far. Let's not overreact to either starters' performance to this point though. Note that Chicago is 7-2 in its last 9 in trying to avenge B2B losses to an opponent. To say this is a "revenge" game as well would be an understatement, as the Yanks have won 8 of the L9 in this series. I say this one comes down to the wire; grab the ChiSox on the runline option!

8* STARS PUCKLINE (SPECIAL) I play underdogs. I play totals. I also play favorites. Wagering on sports is about finding value, whether it's an underdog, a total or a favorite. Here I expect a highly competitive affair, one that'll likely be decided late, or even in extras. Because of that, I'm going to lay the price for the extra 1.5 goals in my back pocket. Neither offense has looked great in this series. Dallas though is 7-2 in its last 9 in trying to revenge a road loss against an opponent. Look for a tight, competitive affair; the play is Dallas on the puckline! AAA Sports |

05-13-22 | Celtics +2 v. Bucks | Top | 108-95 | Win | 100 | 36 h 26 m | Show |
10* CELTICS (GOM) The NBA would love to see a Game 7 here. I believe it's going to happen. That said, my recommendation will be to grab as many points as you can. The Celtics lost 110-107 in Game 5, but I expect this series to move to a pivotal Game 7. Giannis Antetokounmpo was great with 40 points, while Jayson Tatum scored 34 in a losing cause for the C's. These teams have alternated wins/losses since the series started. Note though that the Bucks are a poor 1-6-1 ATS in their last eight games as a home favorite, while the Celtics are 6-0-1 ATS in their last seven as an underdog. Boston's superior defense in this critical game will prove to be the difference tonight; buckle up for a Game 7, the play is the Celtics! AAA Sports |

05-13-22 | Mariners +1.5 v. Mets | Top | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 12 h 2 m | Show |
10* MARINERS RUNLINE (ASSASSIN) I had a play on the Phillies on the runline last night and did not need the extra 1.5 runs. This game on Friday between the Mariners and Mets may follow suit, but once again the value here with getting the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket is just too good to turn down in my opinion. Max Scherzer is 4-1 with a 2.92 ERA for the Mets, while Marco Gonzalez is 1-4 with a 3.91 ERA for the Mariners. The Mets are 9-0-1 in series this year, but regression is imminent at some point. Both starters are coming off losses. I think they're more evenly matched than what this large line is suggesting though. This one gets decided late or even in extras, so let's grab the Mariners on the runline option! AAA Sports |

05-12-22 | Phillies +1.5 v. Dodgers | 9-7 | Win | 100 | 15 h 23 m | Show | |
8* PHILLILES RUNLINE (SPECIAL) Philadelphia won 4-2 at Seattle yesterday, taking 2 of 3 from the Mariners, I believe the hungry visiting side will keep the momentum rolling here. The Dodgers just lost 2 of 3 to the Pirates, including yesterday's 5-3 setback. These pitchers are a "wash" in my mind essentially. The Phillies see Zach Wheeler toe the slab, while the home side counters with Tyler Anderson. Wheeler is 1-3 with a 4.10 ERA, while Anderson is 3-0 with a 2.78 ERA. In fact, regression appears to be in order for Anderson in my estimation. In a contest that I see being decided late or even in extras, let's lay the price for the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket; the play is the Phillies on the runline! AAA Sports |

05-11-22 | Warriors v. Grizzlies +3 | Top | 95-134 | Win | 100 | 38 h 57 m | Show |
10* GRIZZLIES (ASSASSIN) No Ja? No problem! The Grizzlies have done exceptionally well without their superstar in the line-up and with their backs against the wall, I expect their best collective effort tonight. Many will be pulling the trigger on GS here, thinking that without Morant, Memphis will struggle. But I think it'll be GS that struggles to put away this desperate home side. Memphis held the lead in the last game until the fourth quarter. Don't expect that to happen again here. Also note that Memphis is 7-2 ATS in its last 9 in trying to revenge 2 straight losses against an opponent. In a contest that I see being decided in the final moments, I'm grabbing the points; the play is Memphis! AAA Sports |

05-11-22 | Orioles +1.5 v. Cardinals | Top | 1-10 | Loss | -109 | 14 h 60 m | Show |
10* ORIOLES (IL RL GOY) The bottom line here is, I believe that the over-achieving Miles Mikolas is poised for some regression here after his sparkling start for the Cardinals. The Orioles have been decent, especially on the mound. They're 4th in the AL East currently. Spencer Watkins gets the nod to start things off for the visitors and he's 0-0 with a 3.22 ERA over 5 starts this season, posting 10 K's and 10 walks. Mikolas is 2-1 with a 1.53 ERA over 6 games, with 28 K's and 7 walks. Interestinly though, the Cards are just 1-6 in their last 7 vs. the AL East. Watkins has been at his best on the road with a 2.70 ERA and in a contest that I believe could even go to extra innings, I'm going to lay this very reasonable price for the exrta 1.5 runs in my back pocket; the play is the Orioles on the runline! AAA Sports |

05-10-22 | Kings +1.5 v. Oilers | Top | 5-4 | Win | 100 | 16 h 48 m | Show |
10* KINGS PUCKLINE (ASSASSIN) This has been a wild series so far. The Kings won Game 1 by a sore of 4-3. The Oilers then Game 2 by a score of 6-0 and Game 3 by a score of 8-2. The Kings then bounced back and took Game 4 by a score of 4-0. Very unpredictable. The Oilers average 3.48 GPG, which ranks 7th, but they're Achilles heel has been their play on the defensive end where they allow 3.06 GPG. The Kings average 2.87 and allow just 2.83. They say defense wins championships. We're seeing this right now in both the NHL and in the NBA as being true in the playoffs. I think Game 5 will be the most competitive so far, so in a contest that I see being decided late or even in extras, I'm laying the price for the extra 1.5 goals in my back pocket; the play is the Kings on the puckline option! AAA Sports |

05-10-22 | Mavs +6 v. Suns | Top | 80-110 | Loss | -105 | 16 h 32 m | Show |
10* MAVERICKS (RED DRAGON) The Mavericks were a Top 5 defense in the regular season, and they've been fantastic so far in this series against the favored Suns as they enter off B2B victories, including a 111-101 win in Game 4. So far home floor advantage has proved critical in this series, but I'll say it's more about Dallas making adjustments after going down 0-2. Those adjustments and success will continue here in Game 3, and I'll argue that it has nothing to do with the venue, but more about the overall approach Dallas is employing now. If you're wagering on this game, you know the cast of characters and the strengths and weaknesses. The momentum as turned and this Dallas team is going to, at the very least, take this one right down to the wire. While I do think an outright win is possible, let's grab the points! AAA Sports |

05-09-22 | Grizzlies +10.5 v. Warriors | Top | 98-101 | Win | 100 | 16 h 60 m | Show |
10* GRIZZLIES (ASSASSIN) Why is this line so large suddenly? Because Grizzlies' star Ja Morant is injured. Memphis was going to get destroyed in Game 3 whether Morant went down or not though. It was a bad game overall for Memphis. The Grizzlies have always done really well without their star in the line-up though and I expect them to rally here and use the "next man up" mentality. The good news that's flying under the radar though for Memphis is that Dillon Brooks will be back after serving a 1-game suspension. The Warriors are in the drivers seat again in this series, but I expect a much more competitive affair in Game 4. Note that Memphis is 7-2 ATS in its last 9 in trying to revenge a SU/ATS loss of 20 or more points. I say Golden State wins, but the determined Grizzlies comfortably cover with the large spread they've been afforded; the play is Memphis! AAA Sports |

05-09-22 | Flames v. Stars +1.5 | 4-1 | Loss | -195 | 15 h 20 m | Show | |
8* STARS PUCKLINE (DESTRUCTION) In a game that I see being decided late, or even in extra periods, I'm going to lay the larger price for the extra 1.5 goals in our back pocket. The Stars have looked great over the L2 games, winning 4-2 last time out. The Flames were great during the regular season, but they're a much better home team overall. Both teams have great goaltending and defense, so that area's a "wash." The difference here though is that Dallas is 6-2 in its last 8 as a home dog in the +130 to +155 range. Lay the price, the play is the Stars on the puckline! AAA Sports |

05-09-22 | Guardians +1.5 v. White Sox | Top | 12-9 | Win | 100 | 14 h 56 m | Show |
10* GUARDIANS RUNLINE (GOW) Cleveland has won 7 of its last 8. It just took 3 of 4 from Toronto. The Guardians fly in under the radar here as well. The White Sox have won 5 in a row. They just finished sweeping the Red Sox, all tight games, including yesterday's 3-2 victory. Zach Plesac is 1-3 with a 4.44 ERA for the Guardians, while Michael Kopech is 0-0 with a 1.17 ERA for the White Sox. Two good pitchers. Let's not overreact to their numbers at this point of the season, and instead classify them as a "wash." Chicago is overpriced here if that's the case. In a game that I see being decided late or even in extras, let's lay the price for the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket; the play is Cleveland on the runline! AAA Sports |

05-08-22 | Heat v. 76ers -1.5 | Top | 108-116 | Win | 100 | 13 h 47 m | Show |
10* PHILADELPHIA (ASSASSIN) The 76ers are clearly a "different" team with Joel Embiid in the line-up. With a chance to tie up this series, I look for Philadelphia's big man to help key his team to another win at home. Jimmy Butler had 33 points in Game 3 for the Heat, but this 76ers team does indeed look much better at home, especially on the defensive end. The rest of the Heat struggled to shoot, and I expect that to be the case again here. Miami took full advantage in Game's 1 and 2, but now the shoe is on the other foot. Embiid is once again listed as questionable, but with that first awkward game out of the way, we can expect the MVP candidate to be much stronger here in Game 4 all around. Look for the 76ers to dial up the pressure even more and lay these short points with confidence! AAA Sports |

10* NATIONALS RUNLINE (BOB) Washington managed the 7-3 win here yesterday. I think the home side is overvalued here as well on Sunday, and I expect some regression here finally as well from Patrick Sandoval. Sandoval is 1-1 with a 1.29 ERA so far this season for LA, but I expect his sparkling numbers to take a hit today. At the very least, I expect Erick Fedde to match Sandoval inning for inning. Fedde is 2-2 with 22 K's and 10 walks over 25 frames of work. He's also 3-1 with a 3.61 ERA in his career against the Junior Circuit. This one will be decided late or in extra innings, the play is the visitors on the runline! AAA Sports |

05-07-22 | Rays v. Mariners +1.5 | Top | 8-2 | Loss | -158 | 15 h 15 m | Show |
10* MARINERS RUNLINE (ASSASSIN) Seattle won't be lacking for motivation here after losing 9 of its last 10. That includes both games to open this series. First they lost 4-3, then 8-7 last night. The M's allowed 3 runs in the top of the 9th and scored just 1 themselves to lose by 1 run again. While I do think an outright is possible here, I'm going to lay what I think is a very reasonable mid-sized price for the extra 1.5 runs of insurance in our back pocket. The Rays come in on the other end of the spectrum, primed for a letdown after 5 straight wins. Drew Rasmussen is 2-1 with a 3.13 ERA for the Rays, while Marco Gonzalez is 1-3 with a 4.05 ERA for the Mariners. These starters are essentially a "wash" in my eyes. In what should be another competitive affair, let's look for the desperate Mariners to find a way to deliver on the runline option tonight! AAA Sports |

10* PREDATORS PUCKLINE (BOB) Down 0-2, the Predators will throw their "best shot" at Colorado today. Much like the Bruins did last night in their Game 3 win at home against Carolina, I expect a completely different effort here from Nashville with the shift in venue. Note as well that the Predators are 7-2 in their last 9 in trying to revenge a one goal road loss against an opponent. Game 1 was a blowout, and quite frankly, Game 2 could have easily gone in Nashville's favor with a lucky bounce. Expect the Predators to once again keep Game 3 very competitive and because of that, the play here is to grab the home side on the puckline option! AAA Sports |

10* CELTICS (RED DRAGON) This series is all tied up. Milwaukee won Game 1 in a blowout, and Boston returned the favor in Game 2. With the shift in venue though, I'm expecting a much tighter battle tonight. Khris Middleton is out indefinitely for the Bucks, and that's going to have an effect over the long-term. The Celtics have the league's top defender and Jason Tatum is a handful. The C's defended Giannis well in Game 2 and I'm expecting a similar effort here as well. In a game that I see being decided by whichever team has its hands on the ball last, I'm grabbing the points; the play is Boston! AAA Sports |

10* HEAT (ASSASSIN) Philadelphia looked lost without Joel Embiid in its opener vs. Miami and I have a hard time seeing the 76ers doing much better in Game 2. In fact, it was the Heat that really started off slowly in Game 1, but then they found their footing and confidently closed out with the 106-92 victory. I'm expecting an even more loip-sided destruction in Game 2. There's zero chemistry between James Harden and the rest of his teammates, while Jimmy Butler and Miami are poised for a much bigger and more dominating effort in Game 2. Miami won't be taking it easy. It's going to keep the foot on the gas from start to finish as they try and break the 76ers' collective will. I just can't see the visitors doing anything on either end of the court without Embiid in the line-up; so lay the points! AAA Sports |

05-03-22 | Stars +1.5 v. Flames | Top | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 15 h 34 m | Show |
10* STARS PUCKLINE (1ST RND. GOY) Dallas won the first meeting with the Flames by a score of 4-3 in OVERTIME, which was in Calgary, but then the Stars dropped the other 2 matchups. Dallas has 4 players that each have at least 24 goals, led by Jason Robertson. Jake Oettinger finished 30-15-1 with a 2.52 GAA and I think he'll be an "X" factor for sure tonight in our success. The Flames are led by Johnny Gaudreau, who had 40 goals this year. Jacob Markstrom finished 37-15-9 with a 2.22 GAA for the Flames. This one will be a tight, competitive battle, so let's grab the visitors on the puckline option! AAA Sports |

05-03-22 | Giants +1.5 v. Dodgers | Top | 1-3 | Loss | -165 | 14 h 29 m | Show |
10* GIANTS RUNLINE (ASSASSIN) In a game that I see being decided late, or even in extra innings, let's lay the price for the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket. The Giants hand the ball to Carlos Rodon, who is 3-0 with a 1.17 ERA, while the Dodgers counter with Julio Urias, who is 1-1 with a 2.50 ERA. The Giants won 10 of 19 games in the season series last year and 6 of 10 at Dodger Stadium. The Dodgers ended San Fran's season in a 5-game NL Division series, so it's payback time tonight. I like Rodon to, at the very least, match Urias inning for inning. Because of that, the play here today is the Giants on the runline option! AAA Sports |
