04-10-18 | Blue Jays v. Orioles +1.5 | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 8 h 28 m | Show | |
Blue Jays RH Aaron Sanchez (0-1, 5.40 ERA) vs. Orioles RH Andrew Cashner (1-1, 4.09) Cashner the Os starter today vs the Blue Jays has been hard to hit this season, allowing just eight hits in 11 innings so far this season, but unfortunately half of them have been home runs. He's a capable hurler and with just a little more luck could be a dominating factor for the Orioles this season. Cashner has recorded a 2.77 ERA in two career starts against the Jays both in Toronto. Meanwhile, the Jays starter Sanchezs has seen is team go 1-5 in his last 6 starts vs. American League East and 1-5 in his L/6 starts overall. He struggled in his opening start but bounced back in 2nd effort, but this has not always been a good omen for the young man as the Blue Jays are 0-4 in Sanchezs last 4 starts following a Quality Start in his last appearance.Blue Jays are also 0-4 in Sanchezs last 4 starts during game 2 of a series. BALTIMORE is 24-9 L/33 against the money line in home games vs. an AL team with an on base percentage .320 or worse dating back to last season.TORONTO is 10-26 L/37 against the money line in road games after having won 5 or 6 of their last 7 games dating back a few seasons. MLB Home teams against a 1.5 run line (BALTIMORE) - off a loss to a division rival as a home favorite, a struggling team (38% or less ) playing a team with a winning record are 30-9 L/5 seasons for a 77% conversion rate for bettors. Play on the Baltimore Orioles +1.5 runline |

04-10-18 | Braves v. Nationals OVER 7 | 1-4 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 5 m | Show | |
Braves RH Mike Foltynewicz (1-0, 2.61 ERA) vs. Nationals RH Stephen Strasburg (1-1, 3.65) Foltynewicz the Braves starter has looked good out of the gate this season, but according to my pitcher vs offense power rankings does not matchup well vs the Nationals batting order. Last season the righty thrower recorded a 6.64 ERA in 3 games against them , and has a 3-2 record along with a slightly bloated 5.06 ERA in seven career starts against Washington. I expect the Nationals will do some damage against him here today. Meanwhile, the Nats will return fire with Strasburg who has struggled in his first two trips the hill this season. He has been a slow starter of late, so this comes as no surprise to many. In 28 career starts against the Braves , he owns a 4.06 ERA lifetime and garnered a 2-1 record along with a fairly hefty 5.16 ERA a season ago, and is susceptible to getting lit up again by a side that leads MLB in runs scored. With that said, I'm betting on this tilts combined score eclipsing this weak Total. STRASBURG is 13-3 OVER L/16 in home games in the first half of the season with a combined 10.3 rpg scored. Over is 6-1-3 in Braves last 10 vs. National League East.Over is 5-2 in Foltynewiczs last 7 road starts.Over is 5-1-1 in Nationals last 7 games vs. a right-handed starter.Over is 5-0 in Strasburgs last 5 home starts vs. Braves.Over is 14-4 in the last 18 meetings in Washington. ATLANTA is 107-79 OVER when the total is 7 to 8.5 over the last 3 seasons with a combined average of 9 rpg scored. ATLANTA is 31-18 OVER (+11.4 Units) in road games vs. NL teams scoring 4.5 or more runs/game on the season with a combined average of 10.5 rpg scored.

04-09-18 | Mariners v. Royals OVER 7.5 | 0-10 | Win | 100 | 8 h 3 m | Show | |
Mariners LH Marco Gonzales (1-0, 4.26 ERA) vs. Royals RH Jakob Junis (1-0, 0.00) Gonzales looked alright in his opening start, but was troubling were a pair of home runs he gave up at AT&T Park, which is troubling considering its reputation for being unfriendly to HR hitters. I know the Royals bats have been struggling, but I'm betting they get things rolling here tonight. Meanwhile, Junus the Royals starter , is a capable hurler, and has faired well at Kaufman Stadium in his young career, but I'm not sold on him, on those limited data starts, and feel he is still susceptible to being lit up vs a batting order that my own pitcher vs batting order power ranking suggest he does matchup well against. Seattle set a season high for runs in an 11-4 win at Minnesota on Saturday and had yesterday off, and will now be ready to reset their attack on fresh legs. Note: Mariners CF Dee Gordon (11-for-30) and 2B Robinson Cano (11-for-25) both are riding seven-game hitting streaks and Seattle SS Jean Segura is 11-for-25 during his six-game hitting streak. SEATTLE is 24-12 OVER when playing with a day off over the last few seasons with a combined average of 10.2 rpg scored. Over is 4-0 in Gonzales' last 4 starts overall. Over is 4-1-2 in Mariners last 7 road games vs. a right-handed starter. Over is 12-3-1 in Mariners last 16 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400.Over is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings. Over is 6-1-2 in Mariners last 9 road games.Over is 5-1 in Mariners last 6 overall. MLB teams where the total is 8 to 8.5 (SEATTLE) - good fielding team - turning 1.1 or more DP's/game on the season. against opponent terrible power team - averaging 0.75 or less HR's/game on the season are 51-22 OVER L/5 seasons for a 70% conversion rate for bettors.

04-09-18 | Thunder v. Heat +3 | 115-93 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 17 m | Show | |
The Miami Heat enter this game off a ugly loss vs the NY Knicks last time out, and will now be very motivated to bounce back vs the Oklahoma City as they need to get some momentum going before the play offs begin and also get redemption for a loss where they overlooked their opponent. Add to that the Heat have revenge on board for a loss to the Thunder, 105-99 as 6 point road dogs earlier this season and you have a viable home dog to back. Meanwhile, the Thunder could easily find themselves in a letdown situation after exerting a lot of energy in a 108-102 upset win vs the Houston Rockets last time out, and could see their flow interrupted by the Heat side, that has the ability to play a tough physical style of defensive ball. Note: The Thunder are just 3-5 SU L/8 overall and have proven to be highly inconsistent this season despite of their talent levels. Thunder are 5-11 ATS in their last 16 games following a straight up win. Heat are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games following a straight up loss. MIAMI is 11-3 ATS when playing against a marginal winning team (Win Pct. 51% to 60%) this season. OKLAHOMA CITY is 15-25 ATS when playing against a team with a winning record this season and just 7-16 ATS ( when playing against a marginal winning team (Win Pct. 51% to 60%) this season.OKLAHOMA CITY is 5-21 ATS after having won 2 of their last 3 games this season.

04-08-18 | Mets v. Nationals OVER 8 | 6-5 | Win | 100 | 8 h 51 m | Show | |
Mets RH Matt Harvey (0-0, 0.00 ERA) vs. Nationals RH Tanner Roark (1-0, 1.29) Roark the Nats starter looked good in his first start, but it must be noted he was sub par at Nationals Park last season garnering a 6-6 record along with a slightly bloated, 5.04 ERA in 17 games (14 starts). Meanwhile, Harvey the NY Mets starter despite of saying he's healthy again , is still a pitcher that has a lot to prove after two dismal seasons where he went 9-17 and recorded a inflated 5.78 ERA. Harvey is 0-3 with a 7.25 ERA in five games against the Nats the last two seasons. Harvery has seen 4 of his L/5 starts vs the Nats go over the total. Over is 4-1 in Mets last 5 road games vs. a right-handed starter.Over is 3-0-2 in Harveys last 5 starts with 4 days of rest.Over is 12-5-3 in Harveys last 20 starts overall.

04-08-18 | Magic +13 v. Raptors | 101-112 | Win | 100 | 8 h 53 m | Show | |
The Raptors (57-22) conclude their home schedule Sunday when they play the Orlando Magic (24-55) at the Air Canada Centre. Last time out the Magic were embarrassed losing to the Charlotte Hornets by a 137-100 count on Friday night. They had 4G league players in the lineup, and the kids did not take advantage of those minutes, and HC Vogel was very upset, saying they missed their opportunity. QUOTE:"Our four young guys, they got opportunities to play extended minutes and earn jobs and make a name for themselves, and they did not take advantage of that opportunity tonight," Vogel said. END QUOTE: I know Orlando does not have much to play for, but pros don't like to be embarrassed , and withAaron Gordon and Nikola Vusevic upgraded to probable for this contest the Magic must be considered viable underdogs vs a team more interested in staying healthy then delivering a beat dwn vs a downtrodden side that I'm sure their overlooking. Magic are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.Magic are 12-5 ATS in their last 17 road games.Magic are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600 Magic are 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings. Orlando is 2-1 SU L/3 visits to Toronto. The Raptors are 0-15 ATS at home off a win as a home favorite when they allowed fewer than 90 points in each of their last two games , losing SU up 10 times, with the largest margin of victory coming by no more than 6 points. NBA Home favorites (TORONTO) - after going under the total by 42 or more points total in their last seven games, a good team (60% to 75%) playing a bad team (25% to 40%) are 9-32 ATS L/5 seasons for a go against 78% conversion rate for bettors.

04-08-18 | Pistons -5 v. Grizzlies | 117-130 | Loss | -108 | 8 h 9 m | Show | |
Both Detroit and their hosts today the Memphis Grizzlies are out of the play offs. The difference between both sides, is that Memphis is banged up and an overall downtrodden group and looked like they have mailed it completely of late losing 4 straight , with 3 by ugly DD scores, which includes a sleep 94-92 home loss vs lowly Sacramento last time out. |

04-08-18 | Pacers -2 v. Hornets | 123-117 | Win | 100 | 5 h 34 m | Show | |
The play off bound Indiana Pacers are very under rated and are very dangerous according to my power rankings and must be respected here as short favorites on the road. With the Cleveland Cavaliers a possible play off matchup for them , I'm betting they will want to build positive momentum going into the post season and will be ready to run and gun vs a very inconsistent below .500 Charlotte Hornets side today. Pacers are 11-4 ATS in their last 15 vs. Eastern Conference.Hornets are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 home games.Hornets are 8-21-3 ATS in their last 32 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record.

04-07-18 | Pelicans v. Warriors -7 | 126-120 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 11 m | Show | |
Two teams that could be potential first-round opponents in the upcoming NBA playoffs go head to head this Saturday night when the New Orleans Pelicans visit the Golden State Warriors in Oakland . With that said, I expect the Warriors to primed and ready to send a message their visiting opponents here today before the post season starts. I know the defending champs have not looked as explosive as they usually do of late, but now as the play offs approach I expect we will see them amp up into top gear. Yes, Steph curry is out, but this Warriors team even with him missing must be respected, especially against a side on tired legs after playing last night in Phoenix winning 122-103. Note: The Pelicans have lost three straight to Golden State this season by an average of 11 points and have lost 10 straight meetings in this series. Also NBA teams (NEW ORLEANS) - revenging a home loss vs opponent of 10 points or more, after a cover as a double digit favorite are just 19-55 ATS L/22 seasons for a 74% conversion rate for bettors on the blind.

04-07-18 | Nuggets +1 v. Clippers | 134-115 | Win | 100 | 19 h 17 m | Show | |
Denver enters this game having won 4 straight games and 6 of their L/8 overall.Right now, The Nuggets remain in ninth spot in their post season chase because the Timberwolves own tiebreakers over them. But win the last three games, including the season finale in Minnesota next week? The Nuggets are in the playoffs. With that said, you can bet the Rocky Mountain hoops crew will leave everything on the floor tonight as they cannot afford a loss. Meanwhile, the LA Clippers have lost 3 of their L/4 games and most probably out of post season contention and also look to be at a disadvantage today, as Danilo Gallinari (hand), Milos Teodosic (foot), Jawun Evans (groin), Avery Bradley (groin) and Patrick Beverley (knee) are all banged-up. I'm betting on the hungrier side with play off aspirations coming out of this with a victory. Play on Denver to cover |

The Astros have won 6 of their first 7 games, and according to my early season power rankings are the far superior side here, and deserve our backing on the RL/ HOUSTON is 29-11 L/40 against the money line after a 5 game span with an OBP of .375 or better over the last 2 seasons winning by an average 2.3 rpg.

04-06-18 | Heat v. Knicks +9 | 98-122 | Win | 100 | 12 h 53 m | Show | |
The NY Knicks have had another below .500 season, but believe it or not they have actually not been that bad at home overall, going 18-20 SU as hosts . Meanwhile, their guests the Miami Heat have had a decent season, and are play off bound, but are just 18-22 SU on the road during their campaign, and find themselves more interested in staying healthy than beating up on a downtrodden side. I know the Knicks have looked lifeless of late and have lost six of seven, but I expect them to look for a little bit of redemption after being embarrassed in their worst offensive output of the season in Tuesday's 97-73 home loss to Orlando. The Knicks were booed off the court in that above mentioned tilt, and knowing how pros don't like to be embarrassed I expect a little bit of bounce back here against a Miami side that they have revenge for after being thumped by them the last time they played in South Florida a couple of weeks ago. So lets plug our noses, close our eyes and just pull the proverbial trigger on the Knicks to cover vs what should be a disinterested Heat. MIAMI is 2-11 ATS after a win by 10 points or more this season.Heat are 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 games playing on 1 days rest. NYK HC Hornacek is 38-20 ATS in his career after a blowout loss by 15 points or more.

04-06-18 | Heat v. Knicks UNDER 211 | 98-122 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 12 m | Show | |
Miami is play off bound, and will want to sharpen up on their top tier brand of defensive basketball. I expect they will be very focused on being defensively responsible here this evening and for them not to be interested in a run and gun style of play, as they look to stay fresh for the post season. The Heat are 4th in in the league in points allowed and 27th in PACE. Meanwhile, NYK, despite of wanting to push for a more wide open attack tonight after suffering a ugly 97-73 set back last time out, will still have to contend with very good D, in a game I'm betting stays on the low side of the number. |

Royals LH Danny Duffy (0-1, 11.25 ERA) vs. Indians RH Carlos Carrasco (1-0, 7.94) The Royals starting thrower Duffy posted an under performing 0-3 record with a 4.60 ERA in three meetings with Cleveland last season to drop to 2-6 lifetime against the club and is fae material here today. Meanwhile, Indians starting hurler Carrasco did well versus Kansas City last season, recording a 2-1 mark and is 9-6 with a viable 3.58 ERA in 22 games and get my support on the RL. The Cleveland Indians are 19-0 as a favorite of more than 190 when they are off a road game and facing a divisional opponent with fewer wins with the average margin of victory coming by 4.11 RPG. MLB Home favorites against a 1.5 run line.

04-05-18 | Nets v. Bucks -8.5 | 119-111 | Loss | -102 | 10 h 11 m | Show | |
The Bucks have clinched a play off spot and are feeling pretty good about themselves right now, but can still grab a higher seeding with some late season wins , so a motivated effort should be expected. Meanwhile, the Nets are 28 games under .500 and have nothing left to play for, except a higher lottery pick, and currently look to be in full tank mode after a lackluster 121-95 loss at Philadelphia on Tuesday where they looked asleep at the proverbial wheel and now should be expected to provide little fight tonight on the road in Wisconsin. The Bucks have had their way with the Nets recently winning both meetings this season by lopsided DD scores, and have garnered 10 straight wins this series, and I'm betting one more victory and cover are on tonight's agenda. The Nets are 0-12 ATS /SU losing SU by 15.3 ppg as a road dog off a 10+ loss facing an opponent averaging less than 40 rebounds per game like the Bucks . |

The Penguins and Blue Jackets enter this tilt tied for second place in the Metropolitan Division with two games left. Tonight's winner will have the edge on securing home ice for the first-round playoff series. With that said, you can bet both will be motivated to play tonight. But from a matchup perspective the defending Stanley Cup champs have the edge and experience needed to win big games and they get my support here tonight. The Pens are also well rested, and have proven they matchup well against the Jackets in the recent past as their head to head W/L results would indicate. PITTSBURGH is off a loss last time out, but have proven resilient in the past going 14-2 ATS after a loss by 2 goals or more in their previous game this season. Penguins are 22-8 in their last 30 games playing on 3 or more days rest. Penguins are 4-0 in the last 4 meetings and have won 8 of the L/9 overall. NHL Home teams against the money line (COLUMBUS) - revenging a home blowout loss vs opponent of 3 goals or more, off an home win scoring 4 or more goals are 10-29 L/5 seasons for a go against 75% conversion rate for bettors.( Pens crushed the Jackets 5-2 last time they visited Columbus) Play on the Pittsburgh Penguins to win on the money-line |

The visiting Philadelphia 76ers and their hosts the Detroit Pistons are currently playing at a very high level entering this tilt. The young men from Philly are 10-0 L/10 and have covered 9 straight , with the Motown crew having won 7 of their L/8 and covered all 8. Tonight in a head on collision I like the travellers to get the job done vs a side that needs a win desperately to keep their extremely slim play off hopes alive. It must be noted that the Pistons have exerted a great deal of energy lately to keep their dreams alive, and despite of 2 days rest could easily fade here against a very well conditioned side. Philadelphia took each of the first three meetings, including a 114-78 crusher Jan. 5 at home and its obvious matchup well against the Pistons, and they get my backing again. PHILADELPHIA is 9-1 ATS when playing against a marginal losing team (Win Pct. 40% to 49%) this season. PHILADELPHIA is 13-4 ATS L/17 versus good 3 point shooting teams - making 36% or better of their attempts . DETROIT is 16-33 ATS L/49 when the line is +3 to -3 over dating back to last season. NBA team vs the money line (DETROIT) - revenging a road blowout loss vs opponent of 20 points or more, off 2 or more consecutive road wins are just 30-49 L/21 seasons for a go against conversion rate of 62% for bettors on the blind.

Indians RH Corey Kluber (0-1, 2.25 ERA) vs. Angels LH Tyler Skaggs (1-0, 0.00) Cleveland top tier starter today Kluber was a hard-luck loser on Opening Day, allowing two runs on just six hits and one walk over eight solid innings of work in a 2-1 loss vs Seattle. Today I'm expecting he will be just as strong, but with a different won loss result. Note: Indians are 7-1 in Klubers last 8 road starts and the Angels are 1-5 in their last 6 home games vs. a right-handed starter. Meanwhile, Skaggs the Halos starter also did well on opening day, but according to my own data, and pitcher vs offense power rankings does not matchup well vs the Indians batting order and is 0-2 with a 6.23 ERA in three career starts against Cleveland.Indians are 8-0 in their last 8 road games vs. a left-handed starter.

The Portland Trail Blazers have already clinched a postseason spot and now staying healthy will be a priority, which will translate into what I'm betting will be a slight lack of motivational effort and extra drive which will help us cover the number with Dallas this evening. It must be noted that despite of Portland's very explosive March where they went 12-3 SU, they have shown a reversion to the norm, especially with their formerly hot down town shooting, and enter this game having cooled down considerably now converting a league-worst 27.9 percent over the last six games. Also with road games coming up against San Antonio and Houston, a look ahead situation is not out of the question for the Blazers, and gives further credence to my home underdog stance this evening. DALLAS is 29-17 ATS when playing against a team with a winning record this season. DALLAS is 21-11 ATS versus good ball handling teams - committing 14 or les turnovers/game this season.DALLAS is 13-4 ATS L/17 in home games against Northwest division opponents.

The Warriors remain a little banged up but most of the their key cogs like Durant, Thompson, Green are expected to play tonight with only Steph Curry on the sidelines. I know the Warriors don't have alot to play for from a standings perspective as they are guaranteed the No. seed in the West, but cohesiveness now becomes a question mark, because of a late season tumble because of injuries, and lackluster play, and its now imperative they get into a rhythm before the play offs begin. I also know Oklahoma State will be sky high to take down the Warriors tonight, but I'm betting that will not be an easy feat , as the Dubs would love nothing more than to send a message to opponents before the post season arrives. OKLAHOMA CITY is 4-17 ATS revenging a same season loss vs opponent this season( Golden State won the last meeting back on Feb 24, 112-80) . OKLAHOMA CITY is 23-39 ATS as a favorite this season.

He was 1-2 with a 4.24 ERA in four starts against the Yankees last season and is fade material here today against the pinstripes. Meanwhile, the Yanks expected starter Montgomery struck out 144 and allowed 140 hits in 155 1/3 innings during a viable rookie campaign in 2017. He was also 6-3 with a 3.43 ERA in 15 starts at Yankee Stadium where he thrived , including six innings of one-run work vs the Rays in late September. According to my pitcher vs team batting matches up very well against the Rays and get the nod here this afternoon. Rays are 0-4 in their last 4 road games vs. a left-handed starter.

Rangers senior citizen right-hander Bartolo Colon will face Oakland's Andrew Triggs, in the series opener of this series. As hurler Trigg's had surgery last season, and said to be looking pretty fresh . Prior to this operation he displayed some solid skills, and must be respected here tonight vs a Texas team struggling to find their offensive cohesiveness. Triggs has been amazing in his young career against the Rangers as is evident by allowing just one earned run and five hits in 12 2/3 innings (0.71 ERA) in three outings, including two starts. Meanwhile, Colon, pudgier than ever, and looking completely out of shape takes to the hill for the Rangers, well past his prime. Colon is well respected, but might be better off as a pitching coach at this stage in his life. In his last MLB stint he registered a ugly 2-8 run with a nasty looking 8.14 ERA and 1.78 WHIP in 14 starts . When considering the As explosive long ball batting order I suspect the fly ball pitcher will be batting practice participant in this event. Note: Colon will be backed by a tired bull pen. TEXAS is 2-13 L/15 against the money line after a 2 game span where the bullpen threw 9 total innings or more over the last couple seasons. Texas Manager BANISTER is 0-9 against the money line after 2 straight losses by 6 runs or more.

NCAA Tournament - Championship Game - Alamodome - San Antonio, TX Its been said for a long time , that defense wins championships and I'm a proponent of this convectional thinking in general terms, especially in a game like this where I'm getting points with the better defensive side (Michigan). Villanova is strong two way team, that shines because of their experience and ability to play different styles of ball. The Cats key strength however, is their top ranked offense. Meanwhile, Michigan despite showing their ability to explosively offensive, scoring 95 and 99 points in 2 of their last 3 wins to get here, are a physically intimidating side that can wear you down in the paint and are like hoovers around the rim, which makes them very under rated in this spot. I'm betting the Wolverines D, is the difference maker here today on the line. MICHIGAN is 6-0 ATS L/6 when playing against a top-level team (Win Pct. 80% or better ) games this season.

Detroit during their current hot run are averaging 109.1 points, shooting 46.6 percent and getting 49.4 rebounds while limiting their turnovers ( 11.9 ppg). I know the Nets are playing decently of late, but my own power rankings and player vs player and system vs system matchups suggest they do not matchup well vs this type of team and are on tired legs after playing last night and at a dsiadvantage.

Our club has just battled through a bunch of nagging injuries in spring training and early in the season."

The Sixer's have won 9 in a row and will be out to sweep the season series vs a side that they matchup very well against as was evident by winning all 3 previous games this season by double digits. Charlotte has lost 2 straight and failed to cover 3 straight and ar eon tired legs after playing last night , which adds to their fade material status today. The 76ers outscored the Hornets 102-51 on 3-pointers in the last two meetings, going 34 of 77 from beyond the arc and a repeat performance is a high probability outcome in this spot considering both sides current form.

The defending NBA Champion Golden State Warriors are still a little banged up, and on a current 3 game losing streak. Their not as cohesive as usual, and playing uninspired basketball. Can the Warriors turn the switch and go into over drive. Yes, off course they can, but I'm betting the goal right now is to remain healthy heading towards the play offs and to stave of fatigue. With that said, if the Dubs win tonight, I'm betting they do it without going into top gear, and for the hardworking young Kings to play this game like its their own version of a championship game, which makes getting points here a viable wagering opportunity.

NCAA Tournament - Final Four - Alamodome - San Antonio, TXT The East Region’s No. 1 seed, Villanova, meets the Midwest Region’s No. 1 seed, Kansas. The Wildcats No.1 offense, leading the nation in scoring with 87 points a game and are converting at a 50% clip from the floor while making almost 12 three-pointers a game. They are hoovers around the rim and rank fourth nationally in assist-to-turnover ratio. This is needless to say a behemoth side, that deserves our respect, yes even against a solid Kansas side. The wildcats can also play great D, when they need to and I expect that will be the difference here today behind big men , Spellman and Eric Paschall. It must also be noted that getting up the same emotion that they displayed against Duke last time out in their Ot win to advance to the Final 4 will also effect them. Playing at that level again will be a super human feat, and despite of the Jayhawks sometimes amazing gold like performances, this wont be the case in this emotional letdown scenario. Bill Selfs Kansas has not done all that well from a ATS perspective versus teams who attempt 21 or more 3 point shots/game on the season, going just 46-60 ATS.

He's a quality hurler that deserves our respect in this spot. The Venezuelan was 11-2 with a 2.65 ERA on the road in 2017. I know his pitching opponent Paxton is also a top quality hurler, but the Indians are a good fastball hitting team, and against the fire baller Paxton should not be over whelmed. PAXTON is 0-2 when starting against CLEVELAND with an ERA of 3.37 and a WHIP of 1.406.

It's one thing playing with no pressure , and completely different situation when your now expected to win. With that said, I'm betting the red hot and big game tested Blues now on a 6 game win streak, will come into the desert ready to knock down their fledgling rivals a few notches and keep their momentum alive heading towards post season play.

Portland was upset last time out vs the lowly Memphis Grizzlies , thanks in part to being without Damian Lillard (personal) and most probably becasue they over looked their bottoming feeding opponent. Now in bounce back mode, after that last embarrasement, I'm betting we see the Blazers at their very best behind new father, and team leader D.Lillard. (The Blazers star missed the last game so he could be with his wife for the birth of their child. ) The Blazers have played ther best hoops at home this season where they are 25-13 SU, and matchup very well vs this current group of Clippers, as was evident in a recent 122-109 win at Staples back on the 18th of March as 1.5 point dogs..

Last season when he came off the disabled list he registered just one win in 11 starts. The kids got great stuff and that's why the Halos stick with him, but he just can't seem to get it all together or garner run support when he does. Skaggs has never beaten the Athletics - as he has recorded a 0-4 record along with a bloated 6.26 ERA in five career meetings and is fade material vs Billy Beans under rated squad in this spot. Meanwhile, the As starter Manaea had a strong spring, going 1-0 with a 2.53 ERA in 10 2/3 innings of quality work. He's very hard on LH hitters, who have hit just .207 against him in his career, and has been solid at home in the Coliseum, as is evident by recording a 11-6 mark along with a solid 3.55 ERA in 27 games (26 starts). Manaea beat the Angles 3-1 last September throwing six innings of shutout ball, while allowing five just hits. He gets my support .

Once again, in retaliatory fashion I'm betting that Nova also gets lit up in a game that is projected by me to go over the number. ZIMMERMANN team when he starts is 22-9 OVER when the total is 8.5 to 10 over the last 3 seasons with a combined average of 11 rpg scored.ZIMMERMANN is 15-3 OVER at home when the total is 8.5 to 10 over the last 3 seasons with a combined average of 12.3 rpg going on the score board. Over is 7-0 in the last 7 meetings in Detroit.Over is 10-1 in the last 11 meetings.Over is 9-1 in Pirates last 10 vs. American League Central. Temps in Detroit today are supposed to be 45 degrees, and partly sunny. It should be comfortable and conducive to batters being loose enough to rev things up. Play OVER |

Sacramento has been off for a couple days since getting stepped on by Dallas as chalk in their last home tilt on Tuesday . Their coach Dave Joerger was really peed off after that tilt as his players looked inattentive in that game, during what has been a bizarre week of riots in Sacramento after another deadly police shooting. The HC appreciates the stance his players have taken to support the protesters, but has reminded his men that they must be professionals. QUOTE: "We respect that, but we've still got to come in, be professionals, and bring the same juice, the same energy every night."

Giants LH Ty Blach (2017: 8-12, 4.78 ERA) vs. Dodgers LH Clayton Kershaw (2017: 18-4, 2.31) Super star hurler Kershaw makes his eighth consecutive Opening Day start, setting a franchise record. He is 22-9 with a 1.60 ERA in 40 career starts against the Giants his best against any team in MLB and looks to be the far superior choice here today in the opener. SF starter Blach was 2-7 with a 5.02 ERA after the All-Star break last season and finished 3-7 with a 5.55 mark on the road.Blach average of 4.01 strikeouts per nine innings was the lowest in the Majors last season.

The Pens always seem to do just enough to get the play offs before finally shifting into high gear. With the post season right around the corner, I'm betting they will begin to ramp this up, and we should see them at or near the top of their game during the last week of the season, and more importantly tonight. I know the Pens looked bad in their last outing, a 5-2 loss to Detroit, but this will make them even more hungry to get back into a winning mind set. PITTSBURGH is 11-1 ATS off a road blowout loss by 3 goals or more this season and is 23-7 ATS L/30 after allowing 5 goals or more in game. The Devils have squeezed by the Pens in all three meetings this season, the last two by goal counts, but I'm betting the defending Stanley Cup Champs get their revenge here in a last laugh situation. NEW JERSEY is 4-16 ATS in home games when playing against a team with a winning record in the second half of the season dating back to last season. Penguins are 62-28 in their last 90 vs. Metropolitan.

NIT Championship Game - Madison Square Garden - New York, NY Utah is an experienced group that starts four seniors and a junior and must be respected here in what the linesmakers expect will be a close game. Both Penn State and Utah play shut down D, but with a key offensive cog Mike Watkins ( 3rd leading scorer) out for the Lions, the Utes D, can be even more focused. However, with that said, I'm betting the difference maker comes via the charity stripe where Utah is the superior side.

Odorizzi has a great deal of experience vs. the O's from his AL East days, going 2-0 with a 3.10 ERA vs. them in '17 and he gets my attention and money here today. Meanwhile, Orioles starter Bundy will make his first career Opening Day start against the Twins at Camden Yards. He was regarded highly as the season progressed last season, and finally ended up the ace of the staff, despite of not looking all that great late in the season, as is evident by a 7.54 ERA in his L/3 starts . BUNDY is 0-2 when starting against MINNESOTA in his career with an ERA of 6.00 and a WHIP of 1.333,serving up a total of eight runs on 11 hits and five walks in just 12 innings .Orioles are 1-5 in Bundys last 6 starts during game 1 of a series.

With Portland playing the second of back to backs this Wednesday on tired legs, and most likely over looking the lowly the Grizzlies another possible upset could be in the cards and more importantly a cover. It must also be noted that after losing 2 consecutive games , Portland has pulled out two back to back wins of less than 5 points , and are less cohesive then they were during a 12 game win streak.

Meanwhile, Sacramento is 6-7 SU (9-4 ATS) in their L/13 games, and still playing spirited basketball. From a power ranking perspective my numbers suggest the Kings are the superior side here on their own home floor. In other words the lesser of two evils resides with the hosts. DALLAS is 1-10 ATS on the road when the line is +3 to -3 over the last 2 seasons. The Kings are 13-0/SU ATS covering by as a home favorite with less than two days rest after their opponent shot over 50% from the field.

From a power rankings perspective, despite of the Blazers red hot form the Pelicans match up well against this team in a systems analysis and get the nod here on their own home floor.

The Wizards are struggling and need wins badly and are currently one game ahead of the Milwaukee Bucks and 1 1/2 games ahead of the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference . Tonight I'm betting the Wizards will be ready for a San Antonio team playing much better basketball of late. The Spurs despite of their improved play, had a 6-0 home stand go flat when they went on the road and lost to a inconsistent Milwaukee team last time out for their 4th straight road loss. It must also be noted that the Spurs are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss. The Spurs have looked like two different teams, when playing as host and than as visitors which must be worrisome for HC Popovich and company. After getting blind sided by the lowly NY Knicks last time out, I'm betting this sometimes unmotivated group of Wizards has some extra jump here tonight and take out the Spurs in this spot. WASHINGTON is 36-20 ATS after having lost 4 or 5 of their last 6 games over the last few seasons. NBA Road teams where the line is +3 to -3 (SAN ANTONIO) - hot team - having covered 6 or 7 of their last 8 against the spread, with a winning record on the season are just 36-73 ATS L/5 seasons for a go against 67% conversion rate for bettors.

North Texas enters this game on fire scoring 90 plus points in three straight wins, and are a side that must be respected after playing top tier teams like Western Kentucky and Middle Tennessee State and looking very competetive against them. Meanwhile, San Francisco has played three hard fought closely contsted affairs to get to this best of three CBI finals series, and are in alot of ways lucky to be here. Their one signature win came this season against St.Mary's a team that was over rated in the rankings and missed the NCAA tournament. Here in todays matchup, I'm betting that San Francisco does not have enough offensive weapons to easily come out of this with a win, and getting points with an explosive Men Green side is viavble investment opportunity. Note: SF HC Smith is 0-8 ATS in home games after playing 2 consecutive home games, andSmith is 1-9 ATS after 3 or more consecutive wins as the coach of SAN FRANCISCO. McCasland is 11-3 ATS in his career as a road underdog or pick as the coach of N TEXAS |

Denver is seven games above .500, and are still not guaranteed a play off position, and are one game behind Utah in the Western Conference Northwest Division. Needless to say every game is of the utmost importance . This kind of desperate side that validates a betting stance. I know Philly has been hot, but Denver is no pushovers and must be respected here with so much on the line when it comes to post season implications. Add to that the Nuggets have revenge on board for a loss at home to the 76ers back on Dec 30th of this season.

03-25-18 | Jazz v. Warriors +6 | 110-91 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 6 m | Show | |
Utah has not looked all that cohesive in their last few games losing twice, once to lowly Atlanta and in OT last time out vs San Antonio and in the one victory they looked far from dominating vs a Dallas squad in tank mode. In this spot vs a banged up Golden State team, the lines-makers have decided they deserve to be more than 5 point road favorites. But I'm betting that number is a little bloated, considering how deep the Warriors truly are. With Thompson, Durant, Curry out of the lineup the Warriors can no longer be considered super human, but now just a average to below average side. But when co-coordinating similar lines, and comparing them to my own power rankings , we still have value with a home pup with revenge on board for a ugly 129-99 loss earlier this season to todays visitor Utah. Jazz are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games overall.Jazz are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 vs. Western Conference. Jazz are 3-7 ATS in the last 10 meetings in Golden State.

As the play offs approach teams headed for post season like Minnesota and Boston are being more conservative and defensive minded . Today that's the type of hockey I expect to be witnessed which will see the combined score remain on the low side of the number. Add to that both teams are on tired legs as Boston prepares to play their 3rd road game in 5 days, and Minnesota off a grueling game against a very physical Nashville team last time out and you have a recipe for very little offensive production.

NCAA - Midwest Regional Final - Centurylink Center - Omaha, NE We have Two Hall of Fame coaches, two blue blood programs, and loads of talent ready to go head in Sunday’s showdown at the CenturyLink Center. What I'm betting here today is that Coach Ks zone defense is going to get run over, by a Bill Self coached team that knows how to deal with it well. According to my player vs players and system vs system power rankings Duke does not match up well here and I won't be surprised if Kansas pulls of the upset. But just to be safe lets take the points.

NCAA - East Regional Final - TD Garden - Boston, MA Villanova was my pick to win the enchilada this season, so I'm not about to jump off the bandwagon now. Yes, they are playing a good basketball team in Texas Tech, but according to my power rankings and systems adjustments the Wildcats are the far superior team, and so diverse in their abilities are extremely hard to play against, that laying 7 or less points does not phase me. In other words whatever the Raiders throw at the Cats, they will easily be able to counter and take over any situation and turn it in their favor behind a boatload full of talent. I know Raiders guards Culver and James, look unstoppable, but they have yet to face this type of opponent this season and could easily get run over . Villanova has been v explosive on offense and are currently ranked 1st in the nation in scoring, with 87.0 ppg, ranking 5th in shooting (50.3%), 10th in 3-point shooting (40.5%), and have 47 treys in this tournament so far , which is not a good omen for a Texas Tech side, that has looked below average guarding the downtown three, as was the case in their win vs Purdue last time out, allowing s 38.9% conversion rate from long range. VILLANOVA is 11-4 ATS versus very good teams - outscoring their opponents by 8+ points/game this season.

Michigan looked like the greatest College basketball team in the world last time out in their win vs Texas A&M. I think anyone who watched was in awe. It was an amazing site to behold, as everything the Wolverines touched turned to gold. Now I'm expecting a reversion to the norm and a pretty big drop off after that amazing performance vs a solid Florida State D. It's just the law of physics at play, as you cannot put out that much positive energy without creating a situation without negative energy creating a reversal of flow which I'm betting will be the case here in this tilt for Michigan . Today against a tall athletic Florida State side, being as fluid for Michigan is going to be a challenge. Watching the Seminoles superior athletes outduel a pretty good Gonzaga group has me confidently betting on them to make a game of this here today. This has been a crazy NCAA tournament, with a lot of upsets and no team is safe, or even close to a sure bet, so I'm not swayed by the Wolverines current form as day could to turn to night quicker than many might anticipate.

Charlotte has looked explosive at times this season, and crapped the bed on other occasions. But you can see their abilities when their in a flow, and after back to back wins vs Brooklyn and 61 point margin of victory vs Memphis (140-79) behind the resurgent Dwight Howard, this is now a viable team to back. With that said, I'm betting another struggling side like Dallas on a current 4 game losing streak does not pose much of a challenge to them in their current form. Let's not forget Dallas owners Mark Cubans indirect comment that he thinks his team should go into tank mode for a better lottery choice, and we have a situation to bet into that favors the streaking visitor. Add to that the Charlotte has revenge and motivation on board for a home loss they suffered to the Mavericks earlier this season Injury update: Dallas key cog G Denis Smith is playing at less than 100% with various nagging injuries and may miss tonight's game.

Both the visiting Chicago Blackhawks who are on a 5 game losing streak and their hosts the NY Islanders have had disappointing seasons and will miss the play offs. Both are struggling but the Isles behind an explosive young offense, look to have a little more zip, and with coach Doug Weight on the hot seat, I'm betting winning is still on their agenda. I know the Hawks have revenge on board for a 7-3 home loss to the Isles, but after watching parts of that tilt, it became obvious that this version of the Isles matches up very well against Chicago .

03-24-18 | Loyola-Chicago v. Kansas State -1 | 78-62 | Loss | -115 | 21 h 13 m | Show | |
Loyola Chicago has played some great basketball in this tournament and have also had a horse shoe solidly wedged into their lower extremities, winning their 3 games by a combined 4 points. They live in and die on fast ball movement and layups,, and today against a physical KState defense I'm betting their going to get battered, and mugged on a consistent basis and that horseshoe I mentioned is going to be pried loose and their luck will run out. Note: Kansas State runs the floor with a lot 6'4 or less athletes but their a tenacious group allowing 4 of their L/5 opponents to 64 points or less. They deserve respect here against a quality program from Chicago, that is as lucky as they are good. The Wildcats advance. CBB favorite (KANSAS ST) - an average offensive team (67-74 PPG) against an excellent defensive team (63 PPG or less) after 15+ games, after a win by 6 points or less are 65-24 ATS L/5 seasons for a 73% conversion rate for bettors.

03-24-18 | Wolves v. 76ers UNDER 222.5 | 108-120 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 25 m | Show | |
Both Minnesota and Philadelphia are playing quality hoops at the moment, and with the play offs approaching will be concentrating on being a little more diligent in the defensive end of the court and in transition. I know both these teams can light up the scoreboard in a hurry , but with Jimmy Butler on the sidelines with an injury for the Wolves, and this being their 5th game in 8 days, I'm betting Minnesota won't be as fluid as the linesmakers expect vs staunch Philly D . It must also be noted that the 76ers are also in tired legs as they play their 3rd game in 5 night. These scheduling anomalies I'm betting effect both sides offensive output here today, making this a viable under wager. Minnesota is 24th in the league in PACE. Philadelphia is ranked 4th in PACE but are ranked 4th in defensive rating and are a highly under rated defensive side. PHILADELPHIA is 22-13 UNDER L/35 versus good 3 point shooting teams - making 36% or more of their attempts this season with a combined average score of 211.1 ppg scored.PHILADELPHIA is 14-4 UNDER L/18 when playing against a marginal winning team (Win Pct. 51% to 60%) - 2nd half of the season dating back to last season with a combined average of 204.6 ppg scored.

Portland had their 13 game win streak ended last time out by a 115-111 count vs the Houston Rockets , and will now be in an emotional letdown spot here this evening vs the visiting Boston Celtics. I know the Blazers have revenge on board for a loss in Boston last month, in a hotly contested affair that ended with a buzzer beater, but getting the energy needed to cover vs a hard working Celtics group will not come easily after the war they just went through vs the Rockets. I know Boston is banged up and Kyrie Irving is out, but this Beantown crew is deeper than many think, as was evident in a 100-99 win vs the red hot Oklahoma City Thunder in their last trip to the hardwood as 5 point home pups. Note: BOSTON is 13-4 ATS L/17 off an upset win as an underdog.

It must also be noted that West Virginia's HC Huggins is 0-21-1 ATS in this tournament if he loses straight up. While you can never rule out a SU upset , especially this season, the odds are very high the Wildcats win here SU, thus making Huggy Bear and his cubs fade material in this spot.

I tip my proverbial hat to the Seminoles, for that big time effort, but now I'm betting their celebrating comes to an abrupt end vs Gonzaga side that has won 34 of 35 games vs sub .890 foes this season.

Their were a few factors at work in that win, but the Hawks overall ugly record speaks for itself, and those types of performances are not consistent . With that said, I now expect a emotional letdown situation to effect the Hawks in this spot vs the Sacramento Kings. I know both teams are in tank mode, but Atlanta smashed Sacramento 126-80 at home on Nov. 15, and I'm betting the Kings will have a little bit of extra energy in the tank tonight in payback mode.

With this being their 5th away game in 8 nights their exhausted as they allowed 120+ points for the third consecutive time . .

James is playing great hoops of late Love is back in the lineup , and even Tristan Thompson (sprained right ankle) and Rodney Hood (lower back strain) were upgraded to questionable for Wednesday's game, which has me coming in late here to lay down some cash on the Cavs. Note: The Raptors have looked a little tired of late, and played last night which should effect their energy levels late in this game when things count most.

Anas Mahmoud is ninth in the nation in blocked shots (3.0) and Ray Spalding is 38th in offensive rebounds (3.09) and I'm betting these top tier abilities give them an edge here.

The Bruins and the Blue Jackets in their games this season, saw the Beantown crew win a 4-3 shootout decision on Oct. 30 in Columbus and then come back by hammering the Jackets 7-2 on Dec. 18 in Boston. I'm betting on more offensive fireworks here tonight as a revenge minded Columbus group on a7 game win streak will look to mercilessly attack their foes and make them pay for that last above mentioned loss they suffered. I know the Bruins are a bit banged up, but they have done well vs Columbus offensively in the recent past as Jackets G Bobrovsky has struggled against Boston, going just 2-5-2 with 3.70/.895, and backup Joonas Korpisalo is 1-0-2 with 2.59/.915 GAA/SVP%.

03-18-18 | Blazers v. Clippers -2 | 122-109 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 7 m | Show | |
The red hot Portland Trail Blazers enter into tonights LA game vs the Clippers on Sunday night with big targets on their backs after notching 12 consecutive victories. With the Blazers also eyeing big upcoming tilts vs Houston and the Boston Celtics they may not be completely focused here which could I'm betting result in a negative effort vs a team primed to grab a victory and end their opponents win streak. It must be noted that Los Angeles turned it over 23 times in a sloppy 121-113 setback at Oklahoma City on Friday and are now 1 1/2 games out of a playoff spot and desperate for a win. The Clippers are 7-1 L/8 ATS off a loss.
NBA teams where the line is +3 to -3 (PORTLAND) - after successfully covering the spread in 3 or more consecutive games, a good team (60% to 75%) playing a team with a winning record are 16-40 ATS L/5 seasons for a go against conversion rate of 72% for bettors. Play on the LA Clippers |

The Stars are currently in a funk and have lost four consecutive games (0-2-2), including 3-2 in overtime to the Ottawa Senators on Friday and are fade material vs a Winnipeg team that is getting healthy again and very dangerous when at full strength, Besides being on its longest losing streak of the season, the Stars also are 5-7-4 in their last 16 games since winning five in a row from Feb. 1-9.

NCAA Tournament - Second Round - Little Caesars Arena - Detroit, MI
Michigan States offense is explosive averaging more than 81 ppg this season, and will force Syracuse in responding with some offensive fireworks of their own or get blown of the court. This will lead to a combined score that eclipses this number. Recently North Carolina scored 78 against Syracuse the Boston College 85 , and I'm betting Michigan State puts a similar of points on the board here. MICHIGAN ST is 7-0 OVERL/7 versus good defensive teams - allowing 64 or less points/game after 15+ games over the last 2 seasons with a combined average score of with a combined average score of 149.3 ppg going on the board.

03-17-18 | Portland State +6 v. San Diego | 64-67 | Win | 100 | 13 h 21 m | Show | |
Portland States Head Coach Barret Peery has shown his metal in his first year at the helm of the team, as the Vikings have registered a 20 win season, something many thought was improbable. This Portland State team is explosive offensively averaging 85.8 points per game on offense and are a dangerous opponent for teams like the San Diego Toreros squad that averages just 70.1 points per game on offense which ranks them 264th nationally. PORTLAND ST is 10-0 ATS in non-conference games this season. Vikings are also 6-0 ATS in their last 6 vs. West Coast Conference. CBB Home teams as a favorite or pick (SAN DIEGO) - average shooting team (42.5-45%) against an below average defensive team (47.5% or better ) after 15+ games are a long term negative out bet, as is evident by 171- 266 ATS mark over the L/21 seasons for a go against 61% conversion rate on the blind for bettors.

NCAA Tournament - Second Round - American Airlines Center - Dallas, TX
My CBB Hoops tourney Selections are based on my own power rankings and proprietary software projections . All factors are researched - relevant trends, line moves, coaching, current stats , historical archives, and injury updates are all considered in my final selections. In other words no stone is left unturned in my quest for a profitable outcome to my recommendations , whether they are sides or totals. With 10 players averaging over 12 minutes per game Texas Tech is a team that is able to sustain a high level of intensity on the floor for an entire game and as they have plenty of able bodied reserves to sub in when a player gets fatigued. Their extremely dangerous and must be respected here as short favs vs a good but inconsistent Florida side, that , on the other hand, only has 6 players that average over 12 minutes per game and relies heavily on front-end production ,which I'm betting will see them fade as this game progresses as exhaustion and foul trouble come into play. HC Beard is 20-7 ATS after allowing 30 points or less in the first half in 2 straight games in all games he has coached. Play on Texas Tech to cover |

03-17-18 | Hornets -6.5 v. Knicks | 101-124 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 18 m | Show | |
Charlotte's Hornets star Dwight Howard enters this game on fire , playing some of his best basketball in years with three 30-point games in the last 10 days, including a 33-point performance in a 129-117 win over his former team, the Atlanta Hawks. Tonight I'm betting he will be the catalyst behind what is a now an explosive Charlotte offense that can easily take advantage of a team that has lost 9 straight and 17 of their L/18 games overall and playing a lot of young players. NEW YORK is 9-21 ATS L/30 versus good ball handling teams - committing 14 or less turnovers/game this season. Knicks are 1-10 ATS in their last 11 games playing on 1 days rest.Knicks are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 home games.

03-17-18 | Rockets v. Pelicans +7.5 | 107-101 | Win | 100 | 9 h 7 m | Show | |
One of Houston's three losses since Jan. 6 was a 115-113 setback at New Orleans on Jan. 26 and now the teams play again. Houston is off clinching the division title last time out, on Thursday and could now be in a letdown spot vs a side that actually matches up quite well against them as has been evident by recent meetings. I know New Orleans has struggled a bit over tier last few games, but taking on this type of top tier side I'm betting will bring out the best them. Pelicans are 22-8 ATS in their last 30 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of greater than .600 and get the nod getting points here this evening. Rockets are 4-9 ATS in the last 13 meetings in New Orleans.Underdog is 20-9-1 ATS in the last 30 meetings. NBA Home teams vs. the money line (NEW ORLEANS) - after failing to cover the spread in 4 or more consecutive games, winning between 51% and 60% of their games on the season are 44-9 SU L/5 seasons for a 83% conversion rate for bettors.
