08-06-18 | Phillies v. Diamondbacks -129 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 11 h 52 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Diamondbacks -129) I'll take my chances here with Arizona at home against the Phillies on Monday. The Diamondbacks are 6-3 in their last 9 and are poised to put an end to Philadelphia's 5-game winning streak. While you can't take anything away from their run, the did just take 4 straight at home against the Marlins, which is what you would expect to see. I think it sets up a tough spot for the Phillies, who had to pack up after yesterday's win and travel clear across the country for this series with Arizona. The Diamondbacks will also send out Zack Godley, who is coming off one of his best starts of the season. Godley allowed just 2 hits and struck out 10 over 7 shutout innings at home against the Rangers in his last start. Arizona is 11-4 in Godley's last 15 starts in a series opener and 6-1 in his last 7 when he's throwing on 5-days of rest. Give me the Diamondbacks -129! |

08-05-18 | Yankees +109 v. Red Sox | Top | 4-5 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 20 m | Show |
50* SUNDAY NIGHT BASEBALL GAME OF THE MONTH (Yankees +109) I'll gladly take my chances here with the Yankees in Sunday's series finale against rival Boston. New York has lost the first 3 games of the series, but should not be a dog in the finale given the starting pitching matchups. Red Sox will send out David Price, who is 2-6 with a 9.21 ERA against the Yankees since he arrived in Boston. New York will counter with the red-hot Masahiro Tanaka, who hasn't lost a decision (7-0) since early April. Tanaka has been outstanding in his last 3 starts, where he's posted a 0.84 ERA and 0.750 WHIP. In his last two outings he hasn't allowed a run, while giving up just 6 hits in 15 innings. Give me the Yankees +109! |
|||||||
08-04-18 | Cardinals v. Pirates UNDER 8.5 | Top | 8-4 | Loss | -110 | 21 h 39 m | Show |
50* NL CENTRAL TOTAL OF THE YEAR (Under 8.5) I'll gladly take my chances here with the UNDER 8.5 in Saturday's MLB matchup between the Cardinals and Pirates. This one is all about the starting pitching matchup and how both starters should keep the opposing offense in check. St Louis will turn to Austin Gomber, who took a no hitter into the 7th inning of his first big league start. Doing so on the road against the Reds, who play in one of the strongest hitter parks in the majors. Pittsburgh will counter with Ivan Nova, who has been at his best when he throws in front of his home crowd at PNC Park. Nova has a 3.15 ERA and 1.123 WHIP in 9 home starts. Give me the UNDER 8.5! |
|||||||
08-03-18 | Rockies v. Brewers UNDER 8.5 | Top | 3-5 | Win | 105 | 10 h 19 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (UNDER 8.5) I'll gladly take my chances here with the UNDER 8.5 in Friday's matchup that has the Rockies visiting the Brewers. This is all about the home/away splits of today's two starters. Colorado will send out German Marquez, who has a 3.30 ERA and 1.083 WHIP in 10 road starts, which is quite a bit better than his 4.90 ERA on the season. Milwaukee will turn to Junior Guerra, wh has a mere 3.43 ERA in 20 starts overall, but owns a 2.45 ERA and 1.197 WHIP in 12 home starts. UNDER is also 24-10-1 in the Brewers last 35 at home vs a team with a winning road record and 16-5 in Guerra's last 21 starts after allowing 5 or more runs in his previous start. Give me the UNDER 8.5! |
|||||||
08-02-18 | Giants v. Diamondbacks UNDER 7.5 | Top | 8-1 | Loss | -115 | 11 h 10 m | Show |
50* NL WEST TOTAL OF THE MONTH (Under 7.5) I'll gladly take my chances here with the UNDER 7.5 in Thursday's NL West showdown between the Diamondbacks and Giants. No need to overthink this one, we have two of the best starters in the game going head-to-head in this one. San Francisco sends out their ace in Madison Bumgarner against Arizona's ace Zack Greinke. Bumgarner has posted a rock-solid 3.04 ERA and 1.184 WHIP in 10 starts after missing a good portion of the season early and has a 2.62 ERA and 1.087 WHIP in 30 career starts against the Diamondbacks. Greinke is 12-5 with a 2.96 ERA in 22 starts, owns a 2.39 ERA and 0.990 WHIP in 11 home starts and has a 0.79 ERA in his last 3 starts. He's also 12-2 with a 2.31 ERA in 18 career starts against San Francisco. Give me the UNDER 7.5! |
|||||||
08-01-18 | Cubs -121 v. Pirates | Top | 9-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 14 m | Show |
50* NL CENTRAL PLAY OF THE WEEK (Cubs -121) I'll gladly take my chances here with Chicago as a short road favorite against the Pirates in Wednesday's series opener, which will see Cole Hamels make his Cubs debut after being acquired in a trade with the Rangers. Getting out of Texas figures to be a blessing for Hamels, who was 1-7 with a 6.41 ERA in 10 starts at Globe Life Park. That's quite a bit different than the 2.93 ERA he posted in 10 road starts. Pittsburgh will counter with Nick Kingham, who is just 5-5 with a 4.80 ERA and 1.234 WHIP in 11 starts. The most recent outing for Kingham wasn't pretty, as he gave up 6 runs on 7 hits and 4 walks in just 3 innings at home against the Mets. Give me the Cubs -121! |
|||||||
07-31-18 | Angels -127 v. Rays | Top | 6-10 | Loss | -127 | 8 h 34 m | Show |
50* AMERICAN LEAGUE GAME OF THE MONTH (Angels -127) I'll gladly take my chances here with the Angels as a short road favorite against the Rays. Los Angeles has won 4 of their last 5 and have really swung the bats well during this stretch. They have scored at least 4 runs in all 5 games, including 3 games where they reached double-digits. I could easily see them putting up a big number here, as Tampa Bay sends out receiver Ryan Stanek for his 16th start. Stanek won't be in long, as he's only averaging 1.5 innings/start. Angels will counter with Tyler Skaggs, who has pitched much better than his 8-6 record would lead on. Skaggs has a 2.62 ERA and 1.191 WHIP in 19 starts, including a 2.11 ERA in 10 road outings and a 2.50 ERA in his last 3 starts. Give me the Angels -127! |
|||||||
07-30-18 | Rockies v. Cardinals -135 | Top | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 9 h 51 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Cardinals -135)Â I'll take my chances here with St Louis at home against the Rockies on Monday. Colorado has won 4 straight and are fresh off a 3-game sweep of the A's, but they aren't swinging the bats well right now. The Rockies have scored 4 or fewer runs in 6 straight games and 5 of those were at hitter-friendly Coors Field. The inability to score runs will bite teams on the road and they are going up against Carlos Martinez, who has a 2.68 ERA in 9 home starts. St Louis is 7-3 in Martinez's last 10 starts vs a team with a winning record and 5-1 in their last 6 off a loss. Rockies will send out Tyler Anderson, who is off a strong start against the Astros, but Colorado has gone a mere 6-16 in his last 22 starts after he recorded a Quality Start in his last outing. Give me the Cardinals -135! |
|||||||
07-29-18 | Dodgers -135 v. Braves | Top | 1-4 | Loss | -135 | 4 h 39 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Dodgers -135) I'll gladly take my chances with the Dodgers as a short road favorite against the Braves on Sunday. These two teams have similar overall records, but are headed in different directions as we close out the month of July. The Dodgers have won 3 straight and are 16-7 in their last 23 games. Atlanta on the other hand has lost 4 in a row and are a mere 5-13 in their last 18. the Braves have really struggled at the plate of late, scoring just 7 runs in their last 4 games and managing just 1 run in each of their last 2. I don't see them figuring it out here, as the Dodgers send out Ross Stripling, who is 8-2 with a 2.76 ERA and 1.087 WHIP in 15 starts. Sean Newcomb will start for Atlanta and he's got a 5.28 ERA in his last 3 starts and is 0-2 with a 6.19 ERA and 1.750 WHIP in 3 career starts against LA. Give me the Dodgers -135! |
|||||||
07-28-18 | Nationals -1.5 v. Marlins | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 10 m | Show |
50* NL EAST RUN LINE PLAY OF THE MONTH (Nationals -1.5, +110)Â I'll take my chances here with Washington on the -1.5 run line Saturday. The Nationals have caught fire. After taking the series finale against the Brewers 7-3, Washington won the series opener against the Marlins 10-3 on Thursday and followed that up with a 9-1 win on Friday. In the Nationals last 3 games they have outscored the opposition 26-7. With the way they are swinging the bats, they should have no problem winning here by at least 2 runs. Gio Gonzalez will start for Washington and he's 10-3 with a 1.93 ERA and 1.109 WHIP in 17 career starts against the Marlins. Give me the Nationals -1.5 (+110)Â |
|||||||
07-27-18 | Cubs +106 v. Cardinals | Top | 2-5 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 31 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Cubs +106) I'll gladly take my chances here with Chicago in Friday's game at St Louis. The Cardinals have no business being favored here with Luke Weaver on the mound. Weaver hasn't pitched well in 2018. He's 5-9 with a 4.96 ERA in 20 starts. He's 0-4 with a 5.32 ERA at home and the Cubs have absolutely crushed him in his brief career. Weaver owns a miserable 10.89 ERA and 2.368 WHIP in 5 career starts against Chicago. The Cubs should score more than enough runs here to get the win behind starter Mike Montgomery. Take Chicago +106! |
|||||||
07-26-18 | Phillies v. Reds -127 | Top | 9-4 | Loss | -127 | 8 h 27 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Reds -127) I'll gladly take my chances here with Cincinnati at home against the Phillies. The Reds finally got their offense going in a 7-3 win over the Cardinals on Wednesday (had scored 2 or fewer in 5 straight games) and I look for them to carry over that momentum at the plate here against Philadelphia's Ranger Suarez, who will be making his first career start. Suarez is a quality prospect, but chances are he will struggle in his first big league start. Cincinnati's Great American Ballpark is no easy place to pitch and it will be that much tougher today with the wind blowing out to left center. Give me the Reds -127! |
|||||||
07-25-18 | A's -115 v. Rangers | Top | 6-5 | Win | 100 | 9 h 56 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (A's -115) I'll take my chances here with the A's on the road against the Rangers. Oakland went into the 7th inning of last night's game against Texas trailing 10-2. They then exploded for 8 runs in the final 3 innings to force extras and added 3 more in the top of the 10th for an improbable 13-10 win. That's the kind of crushing loss that is very difficult to bounce back from and I just don't see the Rangers putting up much of a fight. On top of that, Oakland has a massive edge on the mound here with Edwin Jackson facing off against Martin Perez. Jackson has a 2.92 ERA and 0.946 WHIP in 5 starts. Perez has a 8.05 ERA and 2.077 WHIP in 7 starts. Give me the A's -115! |
|||||||
07-24-18 | Nationals v. Brewers UNDER 9.5 | Top | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 9 h 20 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Under 9.5) I'll gladly take my chances here with the Nationals and Brewers staying UNDER the mark of 9.5 set by the books. This is all about the starting pitching matchup and the strong home/away splits for today's two starters. Washington's Jeremy Hellickson has a 2.53 ERA and 0.961 WHIP in 9 road starts. Milwaukee's Junior Guerra has a 2.55 ERA and 1.217 WHIP in 11 home starts. UNDER is 7-2 in Hellickson's 9 road starts and 7-3-1 in Guerra's 11 home starts. Give me the UNDER 9.5! |
|||||||
07-23-18 | Cardinals +118 v. Reds | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 37 m | Show |
50* MLB UNDERDOG PLAY OF THE MONTH (Cardinals +118) I'll gladly take my chances here with St Louis as a road dog against the Reds. The Cardinals have been swinging a hot bat out of the break and will be headed to hitter friendly Great American Ballpark, which is one of the better hitter parks in the game. They will be up against Reds' starter Luis Castillo, who they have had a lot of success against. Castillo is 0-3 with a 5.24 ERA and 1.388 WHIP in 4 career starts against the Cardinals and 3 of those have come this season. The big reason St Louis is a dog is because they send out Daniel Poncedeleon for his first big league start. However, Poncedeleon has been really good in the minors this year, going 9-3 with a 2.15 ERA. He's also facing  a Cincinnati offense that is out of sync offensively. The Reds managed just 5 runs in their 3-game series out of the All-Star break at home against the Pirates. Give me the Cardinals +118! |
|||||||
07-22-18 | Cardinals v. Cubs -140 | Top | 2-7 | Win | 100 | 4 h 40 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Cubs -140) I'll take my chances here with the Cubs at home in the series finale against the Cardinals. Chicago has really been playing well of late and are absolutely scorching at the plate. The Cubs are hitting .299 as a team with a .387 OBP in their last 7 games. A stretch in which they are scoring just under 7 runs a game. I think they put up a big number here against the struggling Miles Mikolas, who has a 3.94 ERA and 1.437 WHIP in his last 3 starts. As for the Cubs, they will turn to the surging Jose Quintana, who has a 2.60 ERA over his last 3 starts. Quintana also owns a strong 2.81 ERA in 6 career starts against the Cardinals. Give me the Cubs -140! |
|||||||
07-21-18 | Giants +115 v. A's | Top | 3-4 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 35 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Giants +115) I'll gladly take my chances here with San Francisco to cash in a win on the road against the A's. The Giants will have their ace Madison Bumgarner on the mound and I just don't think they should be a dog against the A's with him starting. Oakland's been playing well, but are just 1-5 in their last 6 interleague home games vs a left-handed starter. Giants are also 5-0 in their last 5 road games vs a team with a winning home record. Give me San Francisco +115! |
|||||||
07-20-18 | Indians -1.5 v. Rangers | Top | 9-8 | Loss | -125 | 10 h 32 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Indians -1.5, -125)Â I'll take my chances here with Cleveland on the -1.5 run line in Friday's matchup with the Rangers. The Indians are a team I think is going to go on a big run in the 2nd half and will easily be the more motivated team out of the break, as the Rangers are all but out of the playoff race. The Indians also have a big edge on the mound here with Trevor Bauer going up against Martin Perez. Bauer has a 2.31 ERA and 1.078 WHIP in 20 starts, a 2.39 ERA in 10 outings on the road and a 1.59 ERA over his final 3 starts. Perez is making only his 2nd start since April and has a 7.67 ERA and 2.046 WHIP overall in 6 starts this season. Give me the Indians -1.5 (-125)Â |
|||||||
07-19-18 | Cardinals v. Cubs -145 | Top | 6-9 | Win | 100 | 8 h 18 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Cubs -145) I'll take my chances with the Cubs at home against the Cardinals in the only MLB action for Thursday. Chicago swept the Padres going into the All-Star break and I believe are going to come out of the break extremely motivated to take control of the NL Central. I also think we are going to see a big 2nd half of the season from Cubs starter Kyle Hendricks, who posted a 2.45 ERA over his final 3 starts. St Louis will counter here with Carlos Martinez, who isn't quite the same pitcher on the road as he is at home and owns a not so great 4.81 ERA and 1.570 WHIP in 15 career starts against Chicago. Give me the Cubs -145! |
|||||||
07-15-18 | Phillies -115 v. Marlins | Top | 5-10 | Loss | -115 | 2 h 26 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Phillies -115)Â I'll take my chances here with the Phillies laying a small number on the road against the Marlins. Philadelphia will send out youngster Enel De Los Santos for his second big league start. De Los Santos was strong in his first start at the Mets and should be able to contain the Marlins. I also look for the Phillies offense to put up a big number here against Miami starter Jose Urena, who is 0-7 in 11 home starts and has a 4.83 ERA in 6 career starts against the Phillies. Give me Philadelphia -115 |
|||||||
07-14-18 | Cubs -1.5 v. Padres | Top | 11-6 | Win | 100 | 23 h 21 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Cubs -1.5, -108) I'll take my chances here with Chicago on the -1.5 run line in Saturday's road game against the Padres. I believe the Cubs have a massive edge on the mound in this one and should have no problem winning this one going away. Chicago will send out Kyle Hendricks, who is coming off one of his best starts in quite some time. Hendricks allowed just 5 hits over 8 1/3 shutout innings at San Francisco. I'm willing to bet Hendricks figured something out before that start and will carry it over. Padres will counter with Luis Perdomo, who is 1-3 with a 7.09 ERA and 2.100 WHIP in 6 starts. Perdomo pitched 7 innings in his last start, but allowed 6 runs on 10 hits and has a ERA of 8.62 in his last 3 starts. Give me the Cubs -1.5 (-108)! |
|||||||
07-13-18 | Brewers -115 v. Pirates | Top | 3-7 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 2 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Brewers -115) I'll take my chances here with Milwaukee on the road against the Pirates. I cashed in on Pittsburgh in yesterday's series opener, but the Brewers are now the smart play with the edge they will have on the mound. Milwaukee sends out Junior Guerra, who has a 2.79 ERA in 17 starts and a 2.65 ERA over his last 3 outings. The Pirates will counter with Nick Kingham, who has a 4.26 ERA in 8 starts and a 4.70 ERA and 1.435 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Kingham allowed 4 runs on 6 hits (2 HRs) in just 5 1/3 innings in his only start against the Brewers this year. Note that Pittsburgh is just 4-15 this season on the money line when facing an NL starter with an ERA of 3.20 or better. Give me the Brewers -115! |
|||||||
07-12-18 | Brewers v. Pirates -129 | Top | 3-6 | Win | 100 | 10 h 28 m | Show |
50* NL CENTRAL GAME OF THE MONTH (Pirates -129) I'll gladly take my chances with Pittsburgh at home against the Brewers. The Pirates are working with some momentum, as they just took 2 of 3 against the Nationals and are 3-1 in their last 4 overall. Pittsburgh also is continuing on their current homestand, while Milwaukee just finished up a series in Miami last night. The bigger key here is the pitching matchup. Wade Miley will be starting for Milwaukee and is returning from the DL to make his first start since 5/8. I expect some rust from Miley, especially on the road. Pittsburgh will counter with Jameson Taillon, who was sharp in his last start at home against the Phillies. Milwaukee is just 1-4 in their last 5 road games vs a right-handed starter. Give me the Pirates -129! |
|||||||
07-11-18 | Blue Jays v. Braves -1.5 | Top | 5-9 | Win | 140 | 8 h 8 m | Show |
50* INTERLEAUGE RUN LINE PLAY OF THE MONTH (Braves -1.5, +140) I'll take my chances here with Atlanta on the -1.5 run line at home against the Blue Jays. While the Braves lost the series opener 6-2 last night and are just 1-6 in their last 7, they are in a prime spot to  lay one on Toronto. Atlanta will have one of the best starters in the NL that no one is talking about in Mike Foltynewicz. He's made 17 starts and is ranked 4th in the NL with a 2.37 ERA. He's also got a 2.18 ERA and 1.081 WHIP in 8 home starts. I look for Foltynewicz to pitch a gem here, while Atlanta's offense provides the run-support to win here by at least 2 runs. The Braves have been on the verge of exploding offensively, but just haven't got the big hit. They have 37 hits in their last 4 games and just 14 runs to show for it. Seattle will send out Sam Gaviglio, who has an ugly 6.75 ERA and 1.300 WHIP in 4 road starts. Give me the Braves -1.5 (+140) |
|||||||
07-10-18 | Cardinals -1.5 v. White Sox | Top | 14-2 | Win | 100 | 9 h 33 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Cardinals -1.5, +100) I'll take my chances here with St Louis on the -1.5 run line in Tuesday's series opener against the White Sox. The Cardinals will have arguably their best pitcher on the mound for this one in Miles Mikolas, who is 9-3 with a 2.63 ERA and 1.033 WHIP in 17 starts. Mikolas is also 5-0 in 9 road starts and comes into this one with a 2.37 ERA in his last 3 starts. Not only do the Cardinals have  strong starter going, but they come in red-hot at the play. St Luis is averaging 5.7 runs/game and hitting .286 as a team over their last 7. They figure to stay hot against White Sox starter Dylan Covey, who has really struggled of late. Covey has a 16.20 ERA and 2.300 WHIP in his last 3 starts (allowed 18 earned runs in 10 innings of work). Give me the Cardinals -1.5 (+100) |
|||||||
07-09-18 | Reds v. Indians -1.5 | Top | 7-5 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 18 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Indians -1.5, +110)Â I'll take my chances here with Cleveland on the -1.5 run line at home against the Reds. Cincinnati is in a real tough spot here after two heartbreaking losses to close out their weekend series at the Cubs. The Reds blew a big lead in a 8-7 loss on Saturday and then lost in extra innings on Sunday 6-5. I look for them to have a hard time picking themselves up for this one, plus the Indians have a pretty big edge on the mound with Mike Clevinger facing off against Anthony Desclafani. Clevinger is 7-3 with a 3.11 ERA in 17 starts and has a 2.89 ERA in his last 3 outings. Desclafani has a 5.08 ERA in 6 starts and a 5.50 ERA in his last 3 outings. He's really struggled to keep the ball in the park. He allowed 3 homers in his last start at home against the White Sox and has given up 9 homers in 6 starts overall. Give me the Indians -1.5 (+110)! |
|||||||
07-08-18 | Reds v. Cubs -1.5 | Top | 5-6 | Loss | -100 | 6 h 11 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Cubs -1.5, +144) I'll take my chances here with the Cubs on the -1.5 run line against the Reds. Chicago stunned the Reds on Saturday in a big come-from-behind win. The Cubs trailed 5-0 after 3 and were trailing 7-3 after 6, but rallied for a 8-7 win. That's the kind of loss that really takes a lot out of a team and I just don't see Cincinnati bouncing back from that defeat, especially given the pitching matchup in the series finale. Chicago will turn to Jon Lester, who has been sensational in 2018. Lester is 11-2 with a 2.25 ERA in 17 starts overall and has a 1.49 ERA in 8 home starts (7-1 team record). Reds will counter with Luis Castillo, who has a 5.53 ERA in 18 starts and a 6.70 ERA in 10 road outings. Give me the Cubs -1.5 (+144)! |
|||||||
07-07-18 | Orioles v. Twins -145 | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 5 h 9 m | Show | |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Twins -145) I'll take my chances here with the Twins at home against the Orioles on Saturday. Minnesota comes into this one with some momentum, as they have taken the first two games in the series with relative ease. They won 5-2 in the opener on Thursday and 6-2 in game 2 on Saturday. I look for the offense to stay hot against Kevin Gausman, who has a 4.27 ERA and 1.381 WHIP in 8 road starts. Of even more importance is the fact that the Orioles are a mere 1-7 in those 8 road starts. Baltimore is also 1-5 in Gausman's 6 career starts against the Twins and he's got an ugly 7.59 ERA in those 6 starts. Give me the Twins -145! |
|||||||
07-06-18 | Marlins v. Nationals -1.5 | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 59 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Nationals -1.5, -105) We were very fortunate to get a win with Washington on Thursday, as the Nationals somehow pulled out a 14-12 win in a game in which they trailed 9-0. We will take it and fire right back with Washington on the -1.5 run line Friday. That's exactly the kind of win this team needed to get back on track and it's got to be one of the toughest losses to bounce back from for Miami. Nationals will send out Gio Gonzalez, who not only has been much better at home this season, but owns a 1.85 ERA and 1.046 WHIP in 16 career starts against the Marlins. Give me the Nationals -1.5 (-105)Â |
|||||||
07-05-18 | Marlins v. Nationals -1.5 | Top | 12-14 | Win | 108 | 8 h 35 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Nationals -1.5, +108)Â I'll take my chances here with Washington on the -1.5 run line. The Nationals were just swept at home by the Red Sox, which concluded with a 3-0 defeat on the 4th. They have lost 5 straight overall and are just 2-10 in their last 12. Following yesterday's loss the team held a players-only meeting, so we know we are going to get the best they got in this one. It certainly helps the Nationals are sending out Jeremy Hellickson, who has a 2.62 ERA in 10 starts overall and 1.65 ERA in 3 home starts. It also helps the offense will be up against struggling Miami starter Elieser Hernandez, who has a 6.75 ERA and 1.583 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Give me the Nationals -1.5 (+108)Â |

50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Dodgers -1.5, -110)Â I'll gladly take my chances here with the Dodgers on the -1.5 run line. Los Angeles scored 8 runs on Tuesday and have now put up 31 runs on 43 hits in their last 3 games. That offense figures to stay hot against Pittsburgh's spot starter Clay Holmes. On the flip side of this, the Dodgers will send out veteran Rich Hill, who is trending up with a 2.55 ERA and 0.962 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Hill was really good in his last outing, giving up just 1 run on 6 hits and striking out 10 in 6 2/3 innings at home against the Rockies. Give me the Dodgers -1.5 (-110)! |

07-03-18 | Red Sox v. Nationals OVER 9 | Top | 11-4 | Win | 100 | 7 h 2 m | Show |
50* MLB INTERLEAGUE TOTAL OF THE MONTH (Over 9) These two teams combined for just 7 runs in Monday's series opener, but it could have been a lot higher scoring than that. Most notably the Nationals scored just 3 runs on 3 homers. That was also with two top tier starters on the mound in Scherzer and Porcello. With Brian Johnson going for Boston and Tanner Roark starting for Washington, I think both teams have the potential here to surpass the total on their own. Note that the conditions are going to be miserable for pitching with the heat index expected to be in the 100's. Give me the OVER 9! |

07-02-18 | Pirates v. Dodgers UNDER 7.5 | Top | 1-17 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 35 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Under 7.5) I'll take my chances here with the Dodgers and Pirates staying UNDER the total of 7.5 in Monday's contest. The ball simply doesn't carry well in night games at Dodgers Stadium and I think this is a much better starting pitching matchup than a lot of people realize. Pittsburgh will send out Nick Kingham, who has a sensational 0.991 WHIP in 6 starts and has simply been unlucky to come in with a 3.82 ERA. As for LA, the Dodgers will turn to Alex Wood, who is trending in the right direction with a 2.89 ERA and 1.071 WHIP in his last 3 starts. I look for both teams to struggle to get much going offensively and for this to stay well under the mark. Give me the UNDER 7.5! |

07-01-18 | Twins v. Cubs -1.5 | Top | 10-11 | Loss | -100 | 4 h 20 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Cubs -1.5)Â I'll gladly take my chances here with the Cubs on the -1.5 run line Sunday. Chicago's offense has exploded for 35 runs in their last 3 games, scoring 10 or more in all 3 contests. They have also scored at least 5 runs in 5 straight games. With the wind blowing out to left center at close to 20 mph and the heat index in the upper 90s, I look for the Cubs offense to put up another big number, especially given that Twins starter Lance Lynn owns a 6.64 ERA and 1.738 WHIP in 8 road starts. Chicago will send out Jon Lester, who has been on an absolute tear. Lester has a 2.18 ERA in 16 starts overall and has allowed 2 or fewer runs in 5 straight outings and 10 of his last 11 starts overall. Give me the Cubs -1.5 (+105)Â |

50* AL EAST GAME OF THE MONTH (Red Sox -138) I'll gladly take my chances here with Boston at this price given the circumstances. The Red Sox are going to be a pissed off bunch after getting whooped 8-1 on Friday. I believe it will have them locked in at the plate and that could be a big problem for Yankees starter Sonny Gray. It's been a bad 2018 for Gray, who is just 5-5 with a 4.93 ERA and 1.444 WHIP in 15 starts. He's been especially poor at home, where he's got a 7.22 ERA and 1.817 WHIP in 7 starts. On the flip side of this, Boston will turn to their ace Chris Sale, who is in prime form right now with a 1.35 ERA and 0.750 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Sale has also owned the Yankees. He's got a 1.89 ERA and 0.941 WHIP in 13 starts against them. Give me Boston -138! |

06-29-18 | Twins v. Cubs -125 | Top | 6-10 | Win | 100 | 6 h 11 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Cubs -125) I like the value here with the Cubs at home against the Twins. Chicago ended a miserable 8-game road trip with a much-needed 11-5 win over the Dodgers on Thursday. The Cubs exploded for 7 runs in the 7th and I look for them to build off that momentum in their first game back at home, where they are 21-14 on the season. Chicago will turn to Mike Montgomery, who has made the most of his time filling in as a starter. Montgomery has a 2.02 ERA and 0.925 WHIP in 6 starts and owns a 1.50 ERA over his 2 starts at home. He'll face a Twins offense that has been struggling. Minnesota has scored 2 or fewer runs in 5 of their last 7 games. The Twins are also averaging a mere 3.2 runs/game and hitting .213 as a team vs left-handed starters this season. Give me the Cubs -125! |

06-28-18 | Mariners -142 v. Orioles | Top | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 6 h 33 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Mariners -142) I'll gladly take my chances here with Seattle in Thursday's road contest at Baltimore. The Mariners have already won the first 3 games of the series and are in an excellent spot to finish off the 4-game sweep. With Dylan Bundy having to go to the DL the Orioles are calling up Jimmy Yacabonis to make his first career big league start. I just don't see it going well for Yacabonis, who hasn't pitched well in his two relief appearances. At the same time, I don't see Baltimore scoring a lot here, as Seattle will send out the red-hot Mike Leake, who has a 2.70 ERA and 1.050 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Leake is also 5-1 with a solid 3.89 ERA in 7 road starts this season. Give me the Mariners -142! |

06-27-18 | Twins -138 v. White Sox | Top | 1-6 | Loss | -138 | 9 h 15 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Twins -138) I'll gladly take my chances here with Minnesota on the road against the White Sox. The Twins will be out for revenge after dropping the opener 8-4 and are in a great spot to even up the series with today's pitching matchup. Minnesota will send out Kyle Gibson, who has a 3.25 ERA and 1.207 WHIP in 15 starts. Gibson has been outstanding on the road, posting a 2.00 ERA and 0.911 WHIP in 7 starts. He also comes in having allowed 2 or fewer runs in each of his last 5 starts. Chicago will send out James Shields, who is a mere 1-5 with a 3.95 ERA in 11 home starts and has given up 10 runs on 10 hits and 4 walks in 12 2/3 innings over 2 starts against Minnesota this season. Give me the Twins -138! |

06-26-18 | Rockies v. Giants -132 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 11 h 22 m | Show |
50* NL WEST GAME OF THE MONTH (Giants -132) I'll take my chances here with San Francisco at home against the Rockies. The Giants are 5-1 in their last 6 games and are now an impressive 24-13 at home this season. San Francisco will send out Derek Holland, who has a strong 2.81 ERA in his last 3 starts. Colorado will counter with the struggling Chad Bettis, who has took a drastic turn for the worse. In Bettis' last 5 starts he's allowed no fewer than 5 runs in each start. In just his last 3 starts, Bettis has allowed 18 runs on 20 hits (5 HRs) and 10 walks over a mere 14 1/3 innings of work. Give me the Giants -132! |

06-25-18 | Angels -1.5 v. Royals | Top | 0-2 | Loss | -105 | 5 h 52 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Angels -1.5, -105) I'll gladly take my chances here with Los Angeles winning by at least 2 runs on the road against the Royals. This is a weird spot for KC, who just played a 3-game series at Houston over the weekend. The Royals flew back home for this make-up game against the Angels and will head right back to the road after this one for a series at Milwaukee and then Seattle. LA should put a big emphasis on starting out their 10-game road trip with a win, especially given they have to go to Boston right after this game. The other big key here is the starting pitching matchup. The Angels will send out Tyler Skaggs, who is quietly having a great season. Skaggs has a 2.81 ERA and 1.225 WHIP in 14 starts and comes in on fire with a 0.45 ERA and 1.050 WHIP in his last 3 starts. KC will counter with Brad Keller, who is fortunate to have a 3.38 ERA in 4 starts, as he's posted an awful 1.661 WHIP during this stretch. Give me the Angels -1.5 (-105)! |

06-24-18 | Cardinals v. Brewers -134 | Top | 8-2 | Loss | -134 | 4 h 45 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Brewers -134) I'll gladly take my chances here with Milwaukee at home against St Louis, especially at this price with the edge the Brewers have on the mound. Milwaukee will send out Jhoulys Chacin, who is sitting at 6-2 with a 3.18 ERA in 16 starts. Chacin has an even better 2.31 ERA in 6 home starts and a strong 2.41 ERA over his last 3 outings. The Cardinals will turn to Luke Weaver, who has been a major disappointment in 2018. Weaver is 3-6 with a 4.92 ERA and 1.411 WHIP in 15 starts. He's got a 5.72 ERA in 8 road starts and an awful 7.05 ERA and 2.087 WHIP in his last 3 outings. Give me the Brewers -134! |

50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Red Sox -170) I'll take my chances here with Boston at home against the Mariners on Saturday. The Red Sox will send out Eduardo Rodriguez, who is 9-1 with a 3.59 ERA and 1.236 WHIP in 14 starts. Seattle will counter with Mike Leake, who has a 7-4 record, but owns a mere 4.47 ERA in 15 outings. Leake is also has a not so great 4.75 ERA and 1.33 WHIP in 6 road starts and a 6.75 ERA and 1.568 WHIP in 5 career starts against the Red Sox (team record 0-5). Give me the Red Sox -170! |

06-22-18 | Cubs -125 v. Reds | Top | 3-6 | Loss | -125 | 20 h 56 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Cubs -125) I'll take my chances here with the Cubs coming away with a win on the road against the Reds. This is simply too good a price to pass up on Chicago with the edge they have on the mound. The Cubs will send out Jose Quintana, who is just 6-5 with ta 4.06 ERA and 1.327 WHIP in 14 starts. The key here is that Quintana has a 2.37 ERA in 7 night starts and a a 1.03 ERA and 0.971 WHIP in 6 starts against division opponents. Cincinnati will send out Luis Castillo, who has really been struggling of late. Castillo is 0-3 with a 6.89 ERA and 1.404 WHIP in his last 3 starts. He's also just 2-5 with a 4.84 ERA and 1.567 WHIP in 8 starts against division opponents. Give me the Cubs -125! |

50* AL RUN LINE PLAY OF THE MONTH (Yankees -1.5, +105) I'll gladly take my chances here with the Yankees on the -1.5 run line at home against the Mariners. I actually think we are getting some decent value here with New York due to the fact that they are starting Jonathan Loaisiga, who not many people are familiar with. Loaisiga made his MLB debut last Friday against the Rays at home and allowed just 3 hits over 5 shutout innings. I'll take my chances he pitches well again here. On the flip side of this, Seattle is sending out veteran Felix Hernandez, who has a miserable 7.71 ERA and 1.629 WHIP in 7 road starts. Give me the Yankees -1.5 (+105)! |

06-19-18 | Rangers -128 v. Royals | Top | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 9 h 57 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Rangers -128) I'll gladly take my chances here with Texas as a small road favorite against the Royals. The Rangers come in having won 3 straight and are red-hot at the plate right now. Texas is averaging 6.1 runs/game over their last 7. It's the exact opposite for KC, who is averaging a mere 2.1 runs/game and hitting a lousy .183 as a team in their last 7. The Rangers also have a big edge on the mound with Cole Hamels facing off against Jason Hammel. Hamels has a solid 3.69 ERA and 1.254 WHIP in 14 starts and a 2.40 ERA in 7 road outings. Hammel is 2-7 with a 5.00 ERA and 1.394 WHIP in 14 starts and is 0-4 with a 4.26 ERA in 6 home starts. Give me Texas -128! |

50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Pirates +120) I'll take my chances here with the Pirates at home against the Brewers. Pittsburgh lost 6-8 in Sunday's series finale against the Reds, but had won 3 straight prior to the loss. I look for the Pirates to bounce back at home against Milwaukee. The Brewers are a solid team, but have no business being favored on the road here. I know Jhoulys Chacin has been throwing it well, but he  has a 4.08 ERA and 1.252 WHIP in 9 road starts. Needless to say he's been extremely fortunate to have a 4-0 record on the road. Trevor Williams has been a bit of a rough stretch after a strong start, but owns a strong 3.27 ERA and 1.182 WHIP in 2 starts against the Brewers. Give me the Pirates +120! |

06-17-18 | Cubs -120 v. Cardinals | Top | 0-5 | Loss | -120 | 10 h 5 m | Show |
50* NL CENTRAL PLAY OF THE MONTH (Cubs -120) I'll take my chances with the Cubs at this price all day with the way they are playing. Chicago has won the first two games of the series behind an offensive outburst. The Cubs have scored 19 runs on 24 hits and that was with two of the Cardinals better starters going in Wacha and Martinez. I look for them to stay hot at the plate against Jack Flaherty, who has a 4.41 ERA in his last 3 starts. The other key here is that the Cubs have a great shot at winning here, even if the offense doesn't put up a big number. That's because they will send out Jose Quintana, who has a 2.68 ERA in 7 road starts, 2.18 ERA in 6 night starts and is 3-1 with 0.60 ERA and 0.933 WHIP in 5 starts against division opponents. Give me the Cubs -120! |

50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Diamondbacks -150) I'll take my chances here with Arizona at home against the Mets. The Diamondbacks are red-hot right now. Going into Friday's game they have won 6 of their last 7. New York on the other hand headed into Friday losers of 11 of 13. New York's offense has been atrocious during their recent skid and I look for them to have a horrible time here getting something going against Arizona starter Pat Corbin, who is 6-2 with a 3.10 ERA and 0.989 WHIP in 14 starts. Give me the Diamondbacks -150! |

06-15-18 | Mets v. Diamondbacks -142 | Top | 3-7 | Win | 100 | 11 h 56 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Diamondbacks -142) I'll take my chances here with Arizona at home against the Mets. These two teams are headed in completely different directions right now. Arizona is 6-1 in their last 7 and 12-4 in their last 16. New York is a mere 1-11 in their last 12 and just 4-16 in their last 20. The offense has been completely non-existent for the Mets during this miserable stretch. After scoring just 3 runs yesterday, NY has now gone 10 straight games where they have scored 3 or fewer runs. I just don't see them getting it going here against Diamondbacks starter Zach Godley, who i 3-1 with a 2.94 ERA and 1.174 WHIP in 5 home starts and owns a 2.16 ERA over 4 career starts against the Mets. Give me Arizona -142! |

50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Red Sox -127)Â I'll take my chances here with Boston on the road against the Mariners. You have to tip your hat to the Mariners, who are off to a surprising 44-24 start, but I don't think Seattle can keep it up. The Mariners have been extremely fortunate in close games and it's only a matter of time before the breaks quit going their way. I don't think today's contest will be one that's close. Boston will send out David Price, who has been on a tear since getting called out for playing too much Fortnite. On the flip side of this, Seattle will give the rock to veteran Felix Hernandez, who has an ugly 5.70 ERA and 1.384 WHIP in 14 starts. I think it's going to be a short day at the office for Hernandez against this potent Boston lineup. Give me the Red Sox -127! Â |

40* MLB RUN LINE MASSACRE (Astros -1.5, -125) I'll take my chances here with Houston winning by at least 2 runs on the road against the A's. The Astros have one of the best starters of 2018 on the mound in Gerrit Cole, who is 7-1 with a 2.16 ERA and 0.844 WHIP in 13 starts. Cole has also been at his best on the road, where he owns a 1.72 ERA in 7 starts. Not only does Houston have a great starter on the mound, but they are also red-hot at the plate. The Astros are hitting .306 as a team over their last 7 games and have scored 37 runs over their current 5-game winning streak. Give me Houston -1.5 (-125)! |

40* MLB MONEY LINE SMASH (Phillies -131)Â The Phillies have won two straight after a miserable 1-7 stretch and I'll take my chances with them keeping it going here at home against the Rockies. While Philadelphia is starting to heat up, the Rockies are in a major slump. Colorado has lost 5 straight and 9 of their last 11 overall. Phillies also have the edge on the mound in this one, as they will turn to Nick Pivetta, who has a 2.20 ERA and 0.976 WHIP in 7 road starts. Tyler Anderson will take the mound for the Rockies and he's got a 4.81 ERA in 13 starts overall, 4.58 ERA in 8 road outings and a 5.00 ERA in his last 3 starts. Give me the Phillies -131! |

50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Diamondbacks -153) I'll gladly take my chances here with the Diamondbacks at home against the Pirates. Arizona has caught fire in the month of June. They are 9-2 since June 1st and enter today's contest having won 5 straight. A big reason for the surge is the offense is back to producing at a high level. The Diamondbacks have scored 8 or more runs in each of their last 5 games. I like their chances of keeping it going here against the inconsistent Jameson Taillon, who is 3-5 with a 4.08 ERA in 13 starts overall and just 1-3 with a 4.13 ERA and 1.316 WHIP in 6 road starts. Arizona also figures to have a great shot at winning here, even if the offense doesn't put up a big number, as they have ace Zack Greinke on the mound, who is 3-0 with a 1.64 ERA and 0.863 WHIP in 7 home starts. Give me the Diamondbacks -153! |

50* AL WEST GAME OF THE MONTH (Astros -139) I'll take my chances here with Houston at what I feel is a favorable price to back the Astros in Tuesday's game at Oakland. Houston comes in fresh off a 4-game sweep at Texas and have won 5 straight overall. The offense has been red-hot during the win streak, scoring 31 runs on 53 hits and I look for it to stay hot against A's starter Daniel Mengden, who has an ugly 6.23 ERA and 1.516 WHIP in 6 career starts (1-5 team record) against the Astros. Houston will send out Lance McCullers, who has a misleading 6.61 ERA in his last 3 starts. Most of the damage came in one bad outing at Cleveland, where he gave up 7 runs in 4 1/3. That's the only start in his last 10 outings, where McCullers gave up more than 3 earned runs and he's got a 2.48 ERA and 0.908 WHIP in 6 starts vs division opponents this season. Give me the Astros -139! |

50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Indians -1.5, -150) I'll take my chances here with Cleveland winning by at least 2 runs over the White Sox. The Indians are fresh off a 9-2 win on Sunday and have won 4 of 5 overall. They also own a 16-9 record against division opponents, including a perfect 3-0 mark against the White Sox. Chicago did just take 2 of 3 at Boston over the weekend, but I don't see them keeping it going. Cleveland has a clear edge on the mound here with Carlos Carrasco going up against Lucas Giolito. I know it hasn't been the start to 2018 that we expected from Carrasco, but he was great in his last outing, giving up just 1 run with 10 strikeouts in 7 innings against the Brewers. I like his chances of building off that performance. White Sox will send out Lucas Giolito, who is just 4-6 with a 7.08 ERA in 12 starts overall and has an awful 12.79 ERA and 2.263 WHIP in 5 home outings. Give me the Indians -1.5 (-150)! |

50* AMERICAN LEAGUE GAME OF THE MONTH (Twins -113)  I'll take my chances here with Minnesota at home against the Angels. LA is getting all kinds of respect here due to the fact that they come in having won 6 straight, but I think the value here is clearly with the home team. The Angels aren't exactly lighting it up offensively, as they have scored 4 or fewer runs in 5 of the 6 wins. I think the offense will struggle to produce enough here, as Twins' starter Fernando Romero has a 2.70 ERA and 1.140 WHIP in 3 home starts. I also think this is a good spot for Minnesota's offense to get going. Angels will send out Nick Tropeano, who is just 3-3 with a 4.35 ERA and 1.329 WHIP in 9 starts. Tropeano wasn't good in his last start, giving up 5 runs on 9 hits in just 4 2/3 innings at home against KC. Give me the Twins -113! |

50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Yankees -155) I'll gladly take my chances here with the Yankees to defeat the Mets on Saturday. The Yankees defeated deGrom and the Mets 4-1 in Friday's series opener. The Mets offense continued to be atrocious at the plate, as they have now scored 1 or fewer runs in 5 straight games. That's why I'm more than willing here to look past the poor numbers for Yankees starter Domingo German, plus he's coming off a solid couple outings. You also have to factor in that Mets' starter Steven Matz is just 1-3 with a 4.75 ERA in 6 home starts. Give me the Yankees -155! |

06-09-18 | Mariners v. Rays -135 | 3-7 | Win | 100 | 6 h 4 m | Show | |
40* MLB AFTERNOON MONEY LINE MASSACRE (Rays -135) I like the value here with Tampa Bay as a relatively short home favorite against the Mariners. I know the Rays come in having lost 8 straight, but a lot of the losing streak has simply been bad luck, as 6 of the 8 losses have come by 2 runs or less. I think they snap out of their funk behind the arm of Blake Snell, who is 7-3 with a 2.36 ERA in 13 starts and 3-1 with a 0.86 ERA in 5 home starts. This is also a great spot for Tampa's offense to get going, as Seattle will turn to Felix Hernandez, who has an awful 7.03 ERA and 1.531 WHIP in 6 road starts this season. Give me the Rays -135! |

40* MLB EARLY BIRD MONEY LINE KNOCKOUT (Nationals -170) I'll take my chances here with the Nationals at home against the Giants. Washington lost the opener to SF on Friday 9-5 and I see no reason they don't bounce back here. The Nationals will send out Gio Gonzalez, who is one of the more underrated starters in the game. Gonzalez is 6-2 with a 2.17 ERA in 11 starts, but doesn't get a ton of publicity being in the same rotation at Scherzer and Straburg. He's also 3-1 with a 1.84 ERA in 5 home starts. San Francisco will send out rookie Dereck Rodriguez, who pitched great in his first big league start at home against the Phillies, but I'm not reading into that start. There's going to be more struggles than success for Rodriguez early on. Give me the Nationals -170! |

06-08-18 | Braves v. Dodgers -171 | Top | 3-7 | Win | 100 | 13 h 33 m | Show |
50* NATIONAL LEAGUE GAME OF THE MONTH (Dodgers -171) I'll take my chances here laying a big number on the Dodgers at home against the Braves. LA has been playing some really good baseball of late, as they have closed the gap in the NL West and a big part of that has been the performance of today's starter Walker Buehler. No one could have foreseen Bueler being this good. He's 3-1 with a 2.74 ERA and 1.022 WHIP in 8 starts and he's been even better at home, where he owns a 1.44 ERA and 0.720 WHIP. Not only do the Dodgers have a starter in peak form, but the offense has been on cruise control of late. LA has scored 8 more runs on Thursday and have now scored at least 5 runs in 6 straight games. Considering Atlanta's starter, Brandon McCarthy has a mere 4.83 ERA and 1.500 WHIP in 12 starts, I don't see the Dodgers offense slowing down in this one. Give me LA -171! |

06-08-18 | Padres v. Marlins -130 | 0-4 | Win | 100 | 10 h 34 m | Show | |
40* MLB MONEY LINE NO-BRAINER (Marlins -130) I'll take my chances here with Miami as a relatively small home favorite against the Padres. The Marlins get zero love from the public, so when this team is this big a favorite, you know they have a pretty big edge on the mound and that's definitely the case in this one. San Diego is sending out Eric Later, who doesn't deserve to still be in the rotation with how he's thrown. Lauer has a 6.82 ERA and 1.981 WHIP in 8 starts and the Padres have lost all 4 of his road starts this season. Miami will counter with Caleb Smith, who has been one of their better starters and just recently held the Padres to 1 run on 4 hits in 7 innings at San Diego back on 5/28. Give me the Marlins -130! |

06-07-18 | Royals +144 v. A's | Top | 1-4 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 5 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Royals +144) I'll take my chances here with Kansas City as a big road dog against the A's. While the Royals haven't been playing all that well of late, neither have the A's. My focus here is on the starting pitching and I think KC has a distinct edge in that department. The Royals will send out Jason Hammel, who has been lights out of late with a 1.96 ERA in his last 3 starts. Oakland on the other hand will send out Paul Blackburn, who will be coming off the 60-day DL to make his first start of the season. Blackburn wasn't expected to be back this early, but injuries to their starting rotation have forced the A's to make the call for him to start on Thursday. I know he pitched well last year, but it's unlikely he has his best stuff for this one. Give me the Royals +144! |

06-06-18 | Marlins v. Cardinals -1.5 | Top | 11-3 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 9 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Cardinals -1.5, +106) I'll take my chances here with St Louis winning by at least 2 runs against the Marlins at home. Miami won the series opener yesterday 7-4 as they got off to a strong start against Cardinals starter Carlos Martinez, who was making his first start in 4 weeks. I expect the Marlins to have a much tougher time pushing runs across the plate in this one, as St Louis will give the rock to Jake Flaherty, who has been outstanding in his 6 starts. Flaherty has a 2.62 ERA and 1.077 WHIP. He should get plenty of run support, as Miami will send out Wei-Yin Chen, who is 1-3 with a 6.10 ERA in 7 starts overall and 0-3 with a 12.21 ERA and 2.143 WHIP in 4 road starts. Give me the Cardinals -1.5 (+106)! |

06-06-18 | Orioles +105 v. Mets | 1-0 | Win | 105 | 2 h 2 m | Show | |
40* MLB PUBLIC MONEY LINE SLAUGHTER (Orioles +105) I'll take my chances here with Baltimore to come out on top in Wednesday's road game against the Mets. The Orioles snapped a 7-game losing streak with a 2-1 win over New York on Tuesday and are in a prime position here to build off that victory. Baltimore will send out Dylan Bunny, who has pitched well in each of his last 2 starts and comes in with an impressive 28 strikeouts in his last 21 innings of work. Mets will send out Zack Wheeler, who is 2-4 with a 5.14 ERA in 10 starts and 0-4 with a 6.43 ERA and 1.750 WHIP in 5 home starts. Give me the Orioles +105! |

06-05-18 | Marlins v. Cardinals UNDER 8 | Top | 7-4 | Loss | -117 | 12 h 27 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Under 8) I'll take my chances here with St Louis and Miami staying UNDER the total of 8 set by the books. The Marlins' Jose Urena is just 0-7 with a 4.41 ERA, but has pitched much better than the numbers suggest and is coming off a strong outing in his last start against the Padres (allowed 1 run on 3 hits in 6 innings). Cardinals will counter with Carlos Martinez, who is 3-2 with a  1.62 ERA and 1.080 WHIP in 8 starts. It's also worth noting that the UNDER is 13-3 in St. Louis' 16 games this season when they are playing a team that's won fewer than 38% of their games. Give me the UNDER 8! |

06-05-18 | Dodgers v. Pirates +112 | 5-0 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 12 m | Show | |
40* MLB MONEY LINE MASSACRE (Pirates +112) I'll take my chances with Pittsburgh as a home dog against the Dodgers on Tuesday. The Pirates will send out Joe Musgrove, who was their big pickup in the Gerrit Cole trade and he's been lights out in his first two starts of 2018. Musgrove's first outing was on 5/25 against the Cardinals and he held them to 5 hits over 7 shutout innings. He then held the Cubs to just 1 run over 7 innings, giving him a 0.64 ERA in 2 outings. The Dodgers scored 32 runs in their 3-game series at Colorado, but that's going to happen at Coors Field. I look for LA to come back down to earth and for the Pirates offense to do just enough to secure the win. Give me Pittsburgh +112! |

06-05-18 | Tigers v. Red Sox -1.5 | 0-6 | Win | 106 | 11 h 23 m | Show | |
40* MLB RUN LINE NO-BRAINER (Red Sox -1.5, +106) I'll take my chances here with Boston winning by at least 2 runs at home against Detroit on Tuesday. The Red Sox have been an offensive juggernaut all season and are scoring 6.2 runs and hitting .289 as a team at home. I look for them to put up a big number here against Tigers' starter Artie Lewicki, who is making his first start of 2018. Lewicki's only other start came in September of last season and it wasn't great, as he gave up 5 runs on 11 hits in 5 innings. After playing a makeup double-header against the Yankees yesterday, Detroit's bullpen is hurting and should continue to give up runs once Lewicki is pulled. Give me Boston -1.5 (+106)! |
|||||||
06-04-18 | Yankees v. Tigers OVER 9.5 | 2-4 | Loss | -100 | 6 h 38 m | Show | |
40* MLB OVER/UNDER TOTAL KNOCKOUT (OVER 9.5)Â The Yankees and Tigers should have no problem combining for at least 10 runs in Game 2 of their double-header on Monday. New York has one of the best lineups in baseball and are red-hot at the moment, having scored 23 runs on 47 hits in their last 4 games. They should have no problem keeping it rolling against the Tigers Michael Fiers, who has a 4.44 ERA and 1.335 WHIP in 10 starts. I also think Detroit's offense is going to be able to put up a big number, as the Yankees will send out Domingo German, who has a 6.64 ERA in 4 starts overall, a 9.41 ERA in his last 3 outings and in his lone road start this season he gave up 6 runs in just 3 2/3 innings at Texas. Give me the OVER 9.5! |

50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Red Sox +159) I'll take my chances here with Boston as a big dog against the Astros on Sunday Night Baseball. The Red Sox will send out Rick Porcello, who has a 3.65 ERA and 1.135 WHIP in 12 starts and is coming off a strong showing in his last start against the Blue Jays. Charlie Morton has a perfect 7-0 record, but Houston has lost 4 of his 11 starts and this Red Sox offense is one that even the best starters can struggle against. Price is just too good to pass up. Give me Boston +159! |

06-02-18 | Cubs v. Mets -111 | Top | 7-1 | Loss | -111 | 19 h 43 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Mets -111)Â I'll take my chances here with New York as a short home favorite against the Cubs on Saturday. This is simply too good a price to pass up on with Mets starter Jacob deGrom on the mound. In 11 starts this year, deGrom is 4-0 with a 1.52 ERA and 1.010 WHIP. He's been even better than that of late. He's got a 0.86 ERA and 0.952 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Chicago's Mike Montgomery pitched well in his first start of 2018, but he wasn't in the rotation for a reason. I like the Mets offense to have a big game here and for New York to win this one going away. Give me the Mets -111! |

06-01-18 | Pirates v. Cardinals -140 | 4-0 | Loss | -140 | 21 h 17 m | Show | |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Cardinals -140) I'll take my chances here with the Cardinals at home in Friday's showdown against NL Central rival Pittsburgh. I just feel the price is too good to pass up with how well St Louis starter Miles Mikolas has been throwing. Mikolas is 6-0 with a 2.58 ERA and 0.980 WHIP in 10 starts. The Cardinals have won 8 of those 10 starts. He's also 3-0 with a 1.53 ERA and 0.852 WHIP in 4 home starts. Pittsburgh will send out Jameson Taillon, who has been a major disappointment in 2018. Taillon is just 2-4 with a 4.53 ERA and 1.248 WHIP in 11 starts. He's also a mere 0-3 with a 5.47 ERA and 1.581 WHIP in 5 road starts (1-4 team record). Give me the Cardinals -140! |

06-01-18 | Nationals -140 v. Braves | 0-4 | Loss | -140 | 21 h 51 m | Show | |
40* MLB MONEY LINE KNOCKOUT (Nationals -140) I'll take my chances here with the Nationals in Game 2 of their 4-game series at Atlanta. The Braves won the opener 4-2 on Thursday, but I like how this Washington team has been playing and look for them to bounce back. The Nationals had won 6 straight and 8 of their last 9 prior to losing the opener. Washington will also have one of their best starters on the mound in Stephen Strasburg, who is in prime form at the moment with a 1.96 ERA and 1.091 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Strasburg is 4-1 with a 1.97 ERA and 1.062 WHIP in 5 road starts this season. He also made an outstanding start earlier this season against Atlanta, allowing just 3 hits over 8 shutout innings. Mike Foltynewicz has pitched well in 2018, but has also been a bit lucky to have a 2.55 ERA, as he's got a 1.283 WHIP. Foltynewicz also owns a 4.89 ERA in 8 career starts against Washington. Give me the Nationals -140! |

40* MLB OVER/UNDER TOTAL NO-BRAINER (Over 8.5) I'll take my chances here with the Cubs and Mets going OVER the total of 8.5 set by the books. Chicago's hot offensively right now. The Cubs scored 5 runs in Thursday's win over New York and have scored at least 4 runs in 6 of their last 7. I like them to stay hot here against Mets' starter Zach Wheeler, who has a 5.40 ERA and 1.480 WHIP in 9 starts overall, a 6.19 ERA in his last 3 outings and a 7.36 ERA in 4 home starts. I also am expecting NY's offense to produce in this one. Cubs will send out Tyler Chatwood, who has struggled with control all season. Chatwood has 45 walks in 48 1/3 innings pitched. He's also got a 6.75 ERA and 2.530 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Give me the OVER 8.5! |

05-31-18 | Indians v. Twins UNDER 9.5 | Top | 9-8 | Loss | -109 | 9 h 21 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (UNDER 9.5) I'll gladly take my chances here with the Twins and Indians going UNDER the total of 9.5 on Thursday. I think we are seeing a bit of an inflated number here given how each offense comes into this series. Cleveland has scored 7 or more runs in 5 straight games, but the final 3 were against the White Sox and all 5 were at home. The Indians only average 3.9 runs/game on the road and will be up against a red-hot starter in Jake Odorizzi, who has a 2.12 ERA in his last 3 starts and 1.14 ERA in 4 home starts. Minnesota has scored 8 or more in 2 of their last 3, but that was against the Royals. The Indians will send out one of their top prospects in Shane Bieber and there's been nothing but good things said about this kid and I expect him to pitch well here. Give me the UNDER 9.5! |

40* MLB RUN LINE MASSACRE (Cubs -1.5, +105) I'll take my chances here with the Cubs on the -1.5 run line Thursday. While the Cubs lost a heartbreaker 1-2 on Wednesday, they had won their previous 3 and are showing signs of putting it all together. While they only scored 1 run last night, they had 9 hits (left 11 on base). Prior to that they had scored at least 7 runs in 3 straight games and are hitting .277 as a team over their last 7. I like the Cubs to put up a big number here against Seth Lugo, who is being asked to step into the rotation after just throwing 1 1/3 innings in relief on Monday. He's only expected to throw 50-60 pitches if things go well and the Mets' bullpen owns a 4.29 ERA. Chicago will counter with Jose Quintana, who is just 5-4 with a 4.79 ERA and 1.481 WHIP in 10 starts. That's no where close to what the Cubs were expecting out of Quintana, but he does have a 3.18 ERA in 5 road starts and a very strong 2.35 ERA in 3 night starts (7 of his 10 starts have come in day games). Give me the Cubs -1.5 (+105)! |

05-30-18 | Cubs v. Pirates UNDER 8 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 10 h 40 m | Show | |
40* MLB OVER/UNDER TOTAL NO-BRAINER (Under 8) I'll take my chances here with the Cubs and Pirates staying UNDER the mark of 8 set by the books. I really like both starters in this one. Chicago will start Kyle Hendricks, who is coming off a dominant outing against the Giants, where he allowed just 1 run on 2 hits with 7 strikeouts in 7 innings. Hendricks has also allowed 3 or fewer runs in each of his last 7 starts against Pittsburgh. Pirates will counter with Joe Musgrove, who was sensational in his first start of 2018, allowing just 5 hits with 7 strikeouts over 7 shutout innings. Take the UNDER 8! |

40* MLB RUN LINE MASSACRE (Nationals -1.5, -126)Â I'll take my chances here with Washington winning by at least 2 runs against the Orioles on Wednesday. The Nationals are on a tear right now, as they have won 5 straight to kick off their 10-game road trip. Hard to see them slipping up here with Washington handing over the rock to ace Max Scherzer, who is 8-1 with a 2.14 ERA and 0.907 WHIP in 11 starts. Baltimore will counter with David Hess, who has 2 good outings against a bad Rays offense and 1 bad start against the Red Sox, where he allowed 5 runs on 8 hits (3 HRs) in 4 2/3 innings. I expect Hess to struggle here against a Washington offense that has scored 27 runs in their last 5 games. Give me the Nationals -1.5 (-126)Â |

50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Diamondbacks -1.5, +100) I'l take my chances here with the Diamondbacks cashing in on the -1.5 run line. Arizona has finally got some momentum going, as they have won back-to-back games for the first time since early May. I see no reason why they can't win by 2+ runs in this one, as they send out Pat Corbin against the Reds Sal Romano. Corbin is 5-1 with a 2.47 ERA in 11 starts and 4-1 with a 2.02 ERA in 6 home outings. Romano is 2-6 with a 5.73 ERA in 11 starts and 0-4 with a 7.66 ERA in 5 road starts. Give me the Diamondbacks -1.5 (+100)! |

40* MLB OVER/UNDER TOTAL KNOCKOUT (Under 8) I'll take my chances with the A's and Rays staying UNDER the mark of 8 set here by the books. Tampa Bay won the series opener yesterday by a final score of 1-0. It continued a great stretch of pitching for the Rays, who have allowed 3 or fewer runs in 5 straight games. Hard to not like their chances of keeping that streak going, as they send out Blake Snell, who is 6-3 with a 2.78 ERA in 11 starts. Oakland's pitching has been equally impressive of late. The A's have allowed 3 or fewer runs in each of their last 3 games and 7 of their last 8 overall. They will give the rock to Daniel Gossett, who is off arguably his best start of the season against the Mariners, allowing just 1 run (unearned) on 4 hits in 7 innings. Give me the UNDER 8! |

05-29-18 | Angels v. Tigers UNDER 9 | Top | 9-2 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 12 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Under 9) I'll take my chances here with the Tigers and Angels going UNDER the mark of 9 set by the books. This is a really high total given the circumstances. Detroit will send out one of their best starters here in Michael Fulmer, who has pitched well in each of his last 2 outings and owns a respectable 3.91 ERA and 1.224 WHIP in 4 home starts. He'll also be facing a struggling LA offense that has scored 3 or fewer in 3 of their last 4. Angels will send out Nick Tropeano, who has a 2.33 ERA and 1.035 WHIP in 3 road starts. Give me the UNDER 9! |

40* MLB MONEY LINE MASSACRE (Astros -117) I'll take my chances here with Houston at this price any chance I can get. The Astros won the series opener 5-1 on Monday and are on fire at the plate right now. Houston is average 7.7 runs/game over their last 7. This is the last offense that New York's C.C. Sabathia wants to see. Sabathia is 2-1 with a respectable 3.55 ERA in 9 starts, but it's been all downhill of late. Sabathia gave up 7 runs in 4 1/3 of his last start at Texas and has a 8.78 ERA and 1.950 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Houston will also be sending out Charlie Morton, who is 7-0 with a 2.04 ERA and 0.973 WHIP in 10 starts. Morton will be facing a Yankees offense that has managed just 10 runs on 24 hits in their last 4 games. Houston has scored 31 runs on 42 hits in their last 4. Give me the Astros -117! |

50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Nationals -129) I'll take my chances here with the Nationals getting a win over the Orioles on Monday. Washington is playing great baseball right now, as they have won 3 straight and 5 of their last 6. Baltimore has been a mess all season and are struggling to score runs. The Orioles have scored 3 or fewer in 8 of their last 9 games. Hard to see them getting it going against the Nationals Gio Gonzalez, who has a 2.26 ERA in 9 starts and a 1.50 ERA in his last 3 outings. Baltimore is also sending out Alex Cobb, who is a miserable 1-6 with a 7.32 ERA and 1.932 WHIP in 8 starts. Give me the Nationals -129! |

05-27-18 | Cardinals +104 v. Pirates | 6-4 | Win | 104 | 3 h 3 m | Show | |
40* MLB EARLY BIRD MONEY LINE MASSACRE (Cardinals +104) I'll gladly back St Louis at this price with Miles Mikolas on the mound. Mikolas has come out of nowhere and been the ace of this Cardinals staff early on in 2018. He's 6-0 with a 2.24 ERA and 0.978 WHIP in 9 starts (7-2 team record). One of those starts came against the Pirates back on April 28th at Pittsburgh and he allowed just 2 runs on 6 hits in 7 innings. He's also got a 1.33 ERA in his last 3 starts, so he's in great form. The same can't be said for Pirates' starter Jameson Taillon, who hasn't lived up to the hype of being the ace of Pittsburgh staff. Taillon is just 2-4 with a 4.56 ERA in 10 starts, has a 4.91 ERA in his last 3 outings and a 4.50 ERA in 5 career starts against St. Louis. Take the Cardinals! |

40* MLB EARLY BIRD TOTAL NO-BRAINER (Under 7.5) I'll take my chances here with the Red Sox and Braves staying UNDER the mark of 7.5 set here by the books. It's going to feel like an early spring game, as temps are expected to be in the low 50's, which will definitely keep the ball from carrying. The wind will also be blowing straight in from right field at close to 20 mph. To top it all off, we got ourselves two really good starters on the mound in this one. Boston will send out ace Chris Sale, who is 5-1 with a 2.16 ERA in 11 starts and owns a 1.96 ERA at home. Atlanta will send out Mike Foltynewicz, who is 3-3 with a 2.72 ERA in 10 starts and owns a 2.02 ERA in 5 road outings and a 0.56 ERA in his last 3 starts. Take the UNDER! |

05-26-18 | Astros v. Indians UNDER 7.5 | 6-8 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 7 m | Show | |
40* MLB OVER/UNDER TOTAL NO BRAINER (Under 7.5) I'll take my chances here with the Indians and Astros staying UNDER the mark of 7.5 set here by the books. These two have combined for at least 10 runs in each of the first two games of the series, but Houston has done all the heavy lifting. The Astros won 8-2 on Thursday and 11-2 yesterday. Last night's game was 2-0 Cleveland going into the 8th before Houston scored 4 runs and then added 7 more in the top of the 9th. I think Indians starter Carlos Carrasco can keep the Astros from going off here, while Cleveland continues to stay cold at the plate against the red-hot Lance McCullers (2.00 ERA last 3 starts). Give me the UNDER 7.5! |

40* MLB MONEY LINE KNOCKOUT (Cardinals -115) I'll take my chances here with St Louis as a small road favorite. The Cardinals come in having lost 3 straight and were embarrassed in Friday's 8-1 loss to the Pirates. I expect St Louis to bounce back in a big way here. The biggest reason I like the Cardinals is starter Jack Flaherty. In 4 starts, Flaherty has a 2.31 ERA and 1.028 WHIP. He was sensational in his last outing, strikeout 13, while allowing just 1 run on 2 hits in 7 2/3 innings. Pittsburgh will counter with Trevor Williams, who has a solid 3.05 ERA in 10 starts, but is trending in the wrong direction with a 4.00 ERA in his last 3 outings. Williams is also a mere 1-2 with a 7.45 ERA and 1.810 WHIP in 4 career starts against the Cardinals. Give me St Louis -115! |

50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Mets -110) I'll take my chances here with Noah Syndergaard and the Mets at this price. Milwaukee leads the NL Central at 31-20 and are 8-3 in their last 11. However, they were just shutout last night in the first game against the Mets and have scored 1 or fewer in 3 of their last 5 games. Syndergaard is not the guy you want to break a slump against. He's 4-1 with a 2.92 ERA and 1.193 WHIP in 10 starts (7-3 team record) and is fresh off a dominant outing against the Diamondbacks. Brewers will send out Junior Guerra, who has a solid 2.98 ERA in 8 starts. With that said, Guerra has a mere 3.92 ERA and 1.355 WHIP in 4 home starts and a 4.11 ERA in his last 3 outings. Give me the Mets -110! |

40* MLB MONEY LINE SLAUGHTER (Pirates -121) I'll take my chances here with Pittsburgh at home against St Louis. This is a great price to back the Pirates on their home field. We are getting the value with Pittsburgh because they come in having lost 5 of 6. The thing is the Cardinals haven't been playing much better, as they are 4-7 in their last 11. The Pirates got their offense going at the end of their last series at Cincinnati and are coming home, where they have been really good in 2018. Pittsburgh is scoring 5.2 runs and hitting .277 as a team in their 24 home games (15-9 record). Hard to not see that offense showing up against struggling Cardinals' starter John Gant, who has a 6.52 ERA and 1.449 WHIP in 2 starts. Give me the Pirates -121! |

50* MLB EARLY BIRD TOTAL OF THE MONTH (UNDER 9.5) I'll gladly take my chances here with the White Sox and Orioles going UNDER the mark of 9.5 set by the books. Baltimore is in a funk offensively right now. The Orioles have scored just 6 runs in their last 4 games combined. I know the numbers aren't great for Chicago starter Lucas Giolito, but  he has allowed 3 or fewer runs in 5 of his 9 starts. The White Sox aren't a great offensive team and I like Orioles starter Dylan Bundy to keep them in check. Bundy has been much better in his last 2 starts after a miserable 3-start stretch that saw him allow 19 runs. Bundy has also been sensational when he takes the mound in day games. He's got a 0.70 ERA and 1.091 WHIP in 4 day starts. Give me the UNDER 9.5! |

05-23-18 | Red Sox v. Rays +120 | 4-1 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 52 m | Show | |
40* MLB PUBLIC MONEY LINE SLAUGHTER (Rays +120) I'll take my chances here with Tampa Bay as a home dog. The Rays have dropped 2 straight after rallying off 6 straight wins. Nothing to be ashamed about with the last two defeats as they came against Ohtani and Sale. They'll be up against David Price in this one and while Price pitched well in his last outing, he can't be trusted. Price is just 4-4 with a 4.38 ERA in 9 starts and owns a 5.50 ERA in his last 3 outings. I know it hasn't been much better for Tampa's Chris Archer, but he was outstanding in his last start, giving up 2 hits over 6 2/3 shutout innings. That's now 2 dominant starts in his last 3 outings and I look for him to show up in a big way here. Give me the Rays +120! |

05-23-18 | Braves v. Phillies UNDER 8.5 | 0-4 | Win | 100 | 10 h 57 m | Show | |
40* MLB OVER/UNDER TOTAL NO BRAINER (Under 8.5) I'll take my chances here with the Phillies and Braves staying UNDER the mark of 8.5 set by the books. Neither offense comes into this one in good form. Atlanta has scored just 3 runs in their last two games and the Phillies have managed just 5 run in their last 3. I don't see either offense getting it turned around in this one. Philadelphia will send out veteran Jake Arrieta, who has a 2.82 ERA in 8 starts. Arrieta also owns a 1.07 ERA in 4 home starts and is 3-1 with a 2.75 ERA in 5 career starts against the Braves. Atlanta counters with Luiz Gohara, who will be making his first start of 2018 after 3 quality outings out of the bullpen. Gohara started 5 games last year and really pitched well after a poor outing in his debut. His final start of 2017 came against the Phillies, where he allowed just 1 run on 5 hits with 9 strikeouts in 7 innings. Give me the UNDER 8.5! |

05-22-18 | Angels v. Blue Jays -101 | 3-5 | Win | 100 | 8 h 53 m | Show | |
40* MLB PUBLIC MONEY LINE SLAUGHTER (Blue Jays -101) I'll take my chances here with Toronto on the money line, as they host the Angels. The Blue Jays just got swept at home by the A's in a 4-game series over the weekend. That's not going to sit well with this team and I think they come out from their off day with a renewed focus. It will help that they have veteran J.A. Happ on the mound to help right the ship. Happ doesn't have great numbers overall, but he's coming off his best start of the season. He allowed just 2 hits with 10 strikeouts over 7 shutout innings. I think he builds off that here and we get some help from the offense to secure the victory. Give me the Blue Jays -101! |

05-22-18 | Padres v. Nationals -1.5 | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 26 m | Show |
50* MLB RUN LINE PLAY OF THE MONTH (Nationals -1.5, +110) I'll take my chances here with Washington on the run line. The Nationals won the series opener 10-2 on Monday and got some big help in the debut of rookie Juan Soto, who hit a 3-run homer on the first pitch he saw. Soto is one of the Nat's top prospects and I think his big debut will light a fire under this team that needed something to get going. Hard to not like their chances here, as the pitching matchup heavily favors Washington. The Nats send out Jeremy Hellickson, who has a 2.20 ERA in 6 starts overall, 1.64 ERA at home and 0.52 ERA in his last 3 outings. San Diego will send out Eric Later, who has a 8.14 ERA and 2.095 WHIP in 5 starts. Give me Washington -1.5 (+110)! |

05-21-18 | Royals v. Cardinals -1.5 | Top | 0-6 | Win | 107 | 8 h 15 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Cardinals -1.5, +107) I'll take my chances here with St Louis on the run line, as I think we got a great scenario here for the Cardinals to win by multiple runs. For starters, St Louis will send out one of the more underrated starters in the game in Miles Mikolas. He's 5-0 with a 2.63 ERA and 1.052 WHIP in 8 starts he's got a 2.21 ERA in 3 starts at home and is trending well with a 1.47 ERA in his last 3 outings. He'll be up against a bad Royals offense, so it's hard not to expect more of the same. On the flip side of this, the Cardinals should provide some decent run support. St Louis has scored 23 runs in their last 3 games and will be up against Ian Kennedy, who has a 7.80 ERA and 1.667 WHIP in 3 road starts. Kennedy also has a 7.41 ERA in 9 career starts against the Cardinals. The most recent was in August of last year, where he gave up 7 runs on 6 hits and 4 walks in 6 innings of work. Give me the Cardinals -1.5 (+107)! |

05-20-18 | Padres v. Pirates UNDER 8.5 | Top | 8-5 | Loss | -105 | 3 h 31 m | Show |
50* MLB (NL) TOTAL OF THE MONTH (UNDER 8.5) I'll gladly take my chances here with Pittsburgh/San Diego finishing under the total set here of 8.5. I just think this is way too big a number given the form of today's two starters. San Diego will give the rock to Jordan Lyles, who appears to have figured something out. Lyles made his 2018 debut on 5/10 and allowed just 1 run with 6 strikeouts in 5 innings. He followed that up by allowing just 1 hit over 7 1/3 shutout innings. I'm buying these two starts in a big way. Lyles has 16 strikeouts to just 2 walks. Pittsburgh counters with Trevor Williams, who has a sensational 2.72 ERA in 9 starts overall and a 2.22 ERA in 4 outings at home. Give me the UNDER 8.5! |

05-20-18 | Diamondbacks v. Mets -1.5 | 1-4 | Win | 123 | 2 h 19 m | Show | |
40* MLB RUN LINE MASSACRE (Mets -1.5, +123)Â I'll take my chances here with New York laying it on the Diamondbacks. The Mets won Game 2 in dramatic fashion, scoring 3 runs in the final 2 innings for a 5-4 win. New York has now won 3 of 4 and are certainly riding a wave of momentum going into this one. While that kind of win can light a fire under the winner, it's extremely deflating for the loser and I think Arizona has a tough time bouncing back here. That just added to the Diamondbacks woes, who are now 1-9 in their last 10 games. Regardless of all that, NY also has a massive edge here on the mound with Noah Syndergaard facing off against Clay Buchholz. Give me the Mets -1.5 (+123)Â |

05-19-18 | Diamondbacks -122 v. Mets | Top | 4-5 | Loss | -122 | 9 h 47 m | Show |
50* MLB VEGAS SHARP MONEY TOP PLAY (Diamondbacks -122) I'll take my chances here with Arizona in Saturday's contest at New York. I've been a big fan of Diamondbacks starter Pat Corbin and what he's been doing this season. Corbin has been making life miserable on opposing players, as he's struck out 75 in 9 starts (57 innings). He's also walked just 14 and comes into this game with a 2.53 ERA and 0.860 WHIP in 9 starts. I know Arizona's offense has struggled to get much of anything going, but they shouldn't need to score a lot to get the win in this one. Give me the Diamondbacks -122! |

05-18-18 | Rays v. Angels -139 | 8-3 | Loss | -139 | 13 h 33 m | Show | |
40* MLB LATE NIGHT BOOKIE SLAUGHTER (Angels -139) I'll take my chances here with the Angels taking care of business at home against the Rays on Friday. LA is poised to get back on track here after losing 3 in a row. The offense simply hasn't shown up in the 3-game skid, as LA has managed just 4 runs, scoring just 2 in their last 2. I think they can get something going here against Tampa's Blake Snell, who was just rocked for 5 runs on 6 hits and 2 walks in 3 1/3 at Baltimore in his last start. Los Angeles will counter with the underrated Nick Tropeano, who has a strong 3.64 ERA and 1.180 WHIP in 5 starts this season. Give me the Angels -139! |
|||||||
05-18-18 | Brewers v. Twins -142 | 8-3 | Loss | -142 | 11 h 37 m | Show | |
40* MLB MONEY LINE MASSACRE (Twins -142) I'll take my chances here with the Twins at home Friday against the Brewers. This one comes down to the starting pitching matchup, which I feel heavily favors the home team. Minnesota will send out Kyle Gibson, who owns a respectable 3.43 ERA and 1.209 WHIP in 8 starts. Milwaukee will counter with Brent Suter, who is a mere 1-3 with a 5.60 ERA and 1.444 WHIP in 7 starts. The Brewers have dropped 3 of his 4 road starts and he's not trending well with a 6.60 ERA in his last 3 outings. Give me the Twins -142! |

05-18-18 | Indians v. Astros UNDER 8 | Top | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 11 h 35 m | Show |
50* AMERICAN LEAGUE TOTAL OF THE MONTH (Under 8) I'll take my chances here with the Indians and Astros staying UNDER the mark set here by the books. The starting pitching matchup might not feature the elite names that you would expect to see for a pitcher's duel, but we got two of the best in the game for 2018 with Cleveland's Mike Clevinger and Houston's Charlie Morton. Clevinger is 3-0 with a 2.70 ERA and 1.069 WHIP in 8 starts and has a 0.83 ERA in 3 road outings. Morton is 5-0 with a 2.03 ERA and 0.966 WHIP in 8 starts and owns a 1.96 ERA in 4 home starts. Give me the UNDER 8! |
