07-05-22 | Guardians -148 v. Tigers | 4-11 | Loss | -148 | 8 h 58 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Cleveland Guardians. I like the Cleveland Guardians to win this game against the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday. The Guardians have lost 2 games in a row now after stealing a game from the Yankees on Sunday but now they are in jeopardy of losing this series after getting swept in a double header on Monday. I think the Guardians will bounce back here and they are just a few games out of 1st place in their division so I expect them to have some motivation here against 1 of the bad teams in their division. Cal Quantrill (4-4, 3.72 ERA) is up for the Guardians here and I expect him to pitch well in this game like he has all year. He has been giving up runs in his previous starts but he hasn't had many starts where he gives up 4+ runs and he just had a start in his most recent game where he gave up 3 runs but also pitched 8 innings deep. The Tigers don't have a strong lineup here and they actually have 1 of the worst offenses in the league so I expect him to shut the Tigers down here. Drew Hutchison (0-4, 4.81 ERA) is up for the Tigers here and he hasn't been great this year. He has mainly made his appearances as a reliever this year but he has had a few where he has given up a ton of runs in less than 2 innings. He has only made 2 starts with this being his 3rd and I expect him to have another bad start here. His 1st 2 starts weren't terrible but he still gave up runs and didn't really pitch past the 4th inning in those games. The Tigers don't have a great bullpen either and the Guardians have been hot with their bats lately, despite losing a lot of games as of late they are still putting up runs. I expect the Guardians to bounce back here against a bad team in their division and use this game to inch close to the Twins leading the division. I like the Guardians here. T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Guardians. |

07-04-22 | Twins v. White Sox -122 | 6-3 | Loss | -122 | 11 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Chicago White Sox. I like the Chicago White Sox to win this game against the Minnesota Twins on Monday. The White Sox have looked really good in their games lately. They have won 3 games in a row now, sweeping the Giants in their series over the weekend, and their offense has looked great in those games. They put up 13 runs in their most recent game but they have been putting up a ton of runs in a lot of their games lately and I expect them to continue that here. Their pitching has also been a lot better lately too and they haven't been giving up a ton of runs either. The Twins just played a lot of close games with the Orioles and the Guardians but I think they aren't going to be close in this game. The Twins were putting up a lot of runs but their offense has died down over their previous few games and I expect the White Sox to overpower them with offense here. Dylan Bundy (4-4, 4.71 ERA) is up for the Twins here and he hasn't been great this year. He has been decent in his 3 most recent starts but a majority of his starts this year have been bad starts where he gave up 4+ runs and I expect him to have another bad start here with the White Sox offense getting really hot. Johnny Cueto (2-4, 3.33 ERA) is up for the White Sox here and he has been really good in his starts this year. He has given up 3 runs in 2 starts in a row but he hasn't had many starts this year where he gives up that many runs and I expect him to pitch a good enough game to keep the Twins off the board here. The White Sox have a really good team that haven't been playing like it all year but I think they are going to go on a roll now and I see them winning this game. I like the White Sox to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 7-3 White Sox. |

07-04-22 | Winnipeg v. Toronto OVER 41.5 | 23-22 | Win | 100 | 33 h 18 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Blue Bombers/Argos OVER. I am on the over in the Winnipeg Blue Bombers vs Toronto Argos game on Sunday. The Argos managed to get a slim win by 1 point in their 1st game of the year but they looked terrible in their most recent game losing 44-3 to the BC Lions. They are back on their home field for this game though and I expect them to have a much better offensive effort than what they had in that game against the Lions. Their defense looked terrible in that game and the Blue Bombers are still the Grey Cup defending champions so they are going to put up points on a defense that bad. I expect the Argos to put more effort into their offense here on their home field and I see them putting up some points on the Blue Bombers in this game too. After an embarrassment like that they will show some pride and come with their best effort here but I still don't think their defense will be able to shut down the Blue Bombers here. The Blue Bombers have had a great start to the year with 3 wins already and their defense has been great in those games since they haven't given up 20+ points in any games so far. I think they will give up some points to the Argos here and I expect the Argos to make it a closer game, but I also expect the Blue Bombers to put up a lot of points on this bad defense. I think the Argos are going to be forced to put up more points to stay in this game and I see it going over with these 2 teams battling it out. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 26-21 Blue Bombers. |

07-04-22 | Cubs v. Brewers -144 | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 7 h 40 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Milwaukee Brewers. I like the Milwaukee Brewers to win this game against the Chicago Cubs on Monday. The Brewers have looked really good in their games lately. They have won 6/8 of their previous 8 games and have been on a road trip for a lot of those games. They are back in their own ballpark here and I think they will continue playing well here with another win over a team that hasn't been great this year. The Cubs just beat up on some bad teams winning 4 in a row and they even won their series over the Red Sox who have been good lately but they lost their most recent game in extra innings and I think the Brewers are on a roll here so I expect them to beat the Cubs in their own ballpark. Justin Steele (3-5, 4.39 ERA) is up for the Cubs here and he hasn't been great this year. He has had some bad starts as of late, his 1st start this year was against the Brewers and he pitched great in that game but he has faced them 2 more times since that start and hasn't looked good in either game. I think the Brewers are going to put up some runs on him here and their offense has been really good lately too. Eric Lauer (6-3, 4.02 ERA) is up for the Brewers here and he hasn't been great this year either but he has been pitching a lot better over his 4 previous starts and I expect him to continue improving in this game too with an even better start. I think he will do enough here to keep the Cubs from putting up a lot of runs and the Brewers offense has been hot so I expect them to score runs here. I like the Brewers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-2 Brewers. |

07-04-22 | Marlins v. Nationals OVER 9 | 3-2 | Loss | -107 | 2 h 35 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Marlins/Nationals OVER. I am on the over in the Miami Marlins vs Washington Nationals game on Monday. All 3 of the games in this series has seen 8+ runs in them and I expect this to be another high scoring game here. The Marlins have had 7+ runs scored in 6 games in a row now and the Nats have also been involved in a lot of high scoring games too. The Nats have seen 8+ runs in 4 games in a row now and the offenses for both of these teams have been putting up runs. Braxton Garrett (1-3, 5.24 ERA) is up for the Marlins here and he hasn't been great this year. He has only made 5 starts this year but he has given up a lot of runs in a majority of those starts and just gave up 5 runs in less than 5 innings in his most recent start too. The Nats offense hasn't been bad lately so I expect them to put up some runs on Garrett here. Patrick Corbin (4-10, 6.06 ERA) is up for the Nats here and he hasn't been good at all this year. He has given up 5+ runs in a lot of his starts this year and he has only had 1 start out of his 16 starts this year where he didn't give up a single run. He pitched well in his previous outing too but was terrible in a few starts before that and I don't expect him to keep up his good pitching here from his previous start. I see there being a lot of runs scored on these 2 pitchers and these offenses haven't been that bad lately either. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 7-6 Marlins. |
|||||||
07-03-22 | Cardinals v. Phillies -150 | 0-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 57 m | Show | |
T.M. Prediction: Philadelphia Phillies. I like the Philadelphia Phillies to win this game against the St Louis Cardinals on Sunday. The Phillies have looked really good in their games lately winning 2/3 of their previous 3 games. They lost their game yesterday 7-6 to the Cardinals but that was a game they were trailing 5-0 in after the 1st inning but managed to come back and tie it 5-5 then 6-6 again before losing 7-6 in the 9th inning. They still showed a lot of resilience in that game since they were never out of it and I think they are going to have another great offensive game here to put up enough runs to win this time while their pitching has a better day too. Zack Wheeler (6-4, 2.89 ERA) is up for the Phillies here and he has been really good this year. He has had a few slip ups in his 2 most recent starts but he didn't even pitch that badly giving up no more than 4 runs in those starts and I expect him to bounce back with a better performance in his own ballpark here. He has been striking out a lot of batters lately too with 8+ strikeouts in 4/5 of his previous 5 starts. I expect him to throw another great game here with a lot strikeouts and I see the Cardinals struggling to put up runs on him here. Adam Wainwright (6-5, 3.07 ERA) is up for the Cardinals here and he has been really up and down as a starter this year. He has pitched really well in some starts and has blown games with a lot of early runs in other games. He just had a great start in his most recent game but he had 2 bad starts in a row right before that and the Phillies offense has been really hot lately. No lead is safe with them lately and unless Wainwright pitches a perfect game here, I don't see them beating the Phillies after that game yesterday. I like the Phillies to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Phillies. |
|||||||
07-03-22 | A's v. Mariners -145 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 6 h 0 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Seattle Mariners. I like the Seattle Mariners to win this game against the Oakland Athletics on Sunday. The Mariners have looked really good in their games lately. They have won 4/5 of their previous 5 games and they are going to be looking for the series win here with a win in this game. The A's have been a very bad team all year and are 1 of the worst in the league, losing 5/6 of their previous 6 games and even getting swept in their most recent series. Frankie Montas (3-8, 3.20 ERA) is up for the A's here and he hasn't been great this year. He had 2 really good starts in his previous 2 but that hasn't really been a common theme for him with 3 really bad starts in a row right before that and I don't expect him to keep up the way he has been pitching in his 2 previous starts. The Mariners have been missing some players in their lineup lately because of injuries and suspensions but they have still been putting up runs in their games without those players and racking up the hits. Their offense really hasn't skipped a beat and I expect them to put up runs on Montas here when he hasn't been that great this year. Robbie Ray (6-6, 3.78 ERA) is up for the Mariners here and he had a rough start to the year but he has been pitching very well lately and is starting to look like the same guy he was when he was pitching for the Blue Jays last year. He has pitched 6+ innings in 4 starts in a row now and hasn't given up more than 1 run in any of those starts. I expect him to continue that here in this game and I see the Mariners winning this game with another great effort from their pitching staff. I like the Mariners to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Mariners. |

07-03-22 | Jared Cannonier v. Israel Adesanya UNDER 4.5 | 0-1 | Push | 0 | 15 h 58 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Adesanya/Cannonier UNDER 4.5 rounds. I am on the under in this Israel Adesanya vs Jared Cannonier fight on Saturday. Adesanya has had an incredible career this far with only 1 loss but that loss was pretty recent, just suffering it last year. He has won 2 fights in a row since then, both by unanimous decision, and I think he is ramping up again to make sure that he doesn’t lose again. I think he is going to win this by TKO or KO and I don’t see this fight going the distance. Cannonier has won 2 fights in a row now but he has also won 4/7 of his previous 7 fights and hasn’t looked great either with some bad losses in there. I don’t think he is going to last very long here and I expect him to get knocked out before this fight even goes the distance. I like the under here. T.M. Prediction: 3 rounds. |
|||||||
07-02-22 | Max Holloway +170 v. Alexander Volkanovski | 0-1 | Loss | -100 | 14 h 5 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Max Holloway. I like Max Holloway to win this fight against Alexander Volkanovski on Saturday. Holloway hasn’t had a fight this year yet but I think he is going to start the year off with a big win here. He has won his 2 most recent fights in a row now, going a flawless 2-0 in 2021, and I expect him to continue that here. Both of his previous 2 wins were by Unanimous decision and the man he’s fighting only has 1 loss in his career but I expect that to change. Volkanovski has won 21 fights in a row now but a majority of those came before the year 2020 with only 3 fights after that point. I think his time is up here and I expect him to receive his 1st loss in years to someone who has been fighting more often but is also fresh since this is his 1st fight this year. I like Holloway to win this fight. T.M. Prediction: Holloway by decision. |
|||||||
07-02-22 | Sean Strickland v. Alberto Pereira +110 | 0-1 | Win | 110 | 14 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M Selection: Alex Pereira. I like Alex Pereira to win this fight against Sean Strickland on Saturday. Pereira has had an interesting career thus far. He opened his 1st ever fight with a loss but has won 5 fights in a row now including 1 earlier this year. I think he is going to extend that run here witj a win over Strickland. Pereira got his most recent win by a decision but all 4 of his other wins in his career have been by TKO/KO and I expect him to impose his will on Strickland here like he has to other fighters in previous fights. Strickland has won 6 fights in a row now but his 3 most recent fights were all won by decision and I don’t think he will be able to pull that off here. I think Pereira is going to have more firepower here and I think he has a chance to even knock out Strickland but I don’t see Pereira getting knocked out here at all. I like Pereira to win this fight. T.M. Prediction: Pereira by TKO. |

07-02-22 | Angels v. Astros -132 | Top | 1-9 | Win | 100 | 9 h 49 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Houston Astros. I like the Houston Astros to win this game against the LA Angels on Saturday. The Astros just beat the Angels in their most recent game and they have won 4 games in a row now. They are 1 of the best teams in the league and have been winning a lot of their games with a great pitching effort. Their bullpen is 1 of the best in the league and they also have a really good starting rotation too. I think they are going to cause the Angels to have another dry night on offense and I expect the Astros to start getting into gear now that they have been rolling over teams. The Angels have been having a really bad season, they had a lot of issues which led to Joe Maddon being fired but the team has not really done much since then and continues to lose games with bad pitching and a poor offense which should be better than how it is playing. Jose Urquidy (6-3, 4.36 ERA) is up for the Astros here and he has been pitching really well this season. He hasn't been the best starter on their staff but he is getting the job done in their games with 6 wins awarded to him this season and he has been pitching really well lately. He hasn't looked shaky in his previous few starts and he has also been pitching long outings, taking stress off of their bullpen too. Patrick Sandoval (3-2, 2.63 ERA) is up for the Angels here and he has been really good this year but I don't expect him to keep that up since he really hasn't been this good in previous years. I think there is room for him to regress soon and with the Astros being as hot as they are at the moment, this is a great spot for him to do so. I like the Astros to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 7-2 Astros. |

07-02-22 | White Sox v. Giants -135 | 5-3 | Loss | -135 | 9 h 44 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: San Francisco Giants. I like the San Francisco Giants to win this game against the Chicago White Sox on Saturday. The White Sox and the Giants just battled it out in a really low scoring game with the White Sox winning 1-0. I expect this game to go the other way in favor of the Giants though since they have lost 2 games in a row now and I don't expect that to continue in their own ballpark. The Giants have been a lot better with their pitching lately and I expect them to throw a great game like they did yesterday, but I also expect their offense to show up here too. Dylan Cease (6-3, 2.56 ERA) is up for the White Sox here and he has been really good lately but he hasn't been like that for a majority of the year and has looked really shaky in a lot of his starts. He has a few starts where he has given up 6+ runs in the games and I think he is going to have another bad game here. The Giants are in their own ballpark and their offense was really hot just over a week ago, I expect their bats to wake up here in their own ballpark and put some runs up against the White Sox who have had some really bad pitching this year from both starters and their bullpen. Logan Webb (7-2, 3.04 ERA) is up for the Giants here and he has been great all year as he is 1 of their best pitchers on the staff. He hasn't really looked shaky in any of his starts this year, not giving up many runs in those games, and he has 3 starts in a row now where he hasn't given up more than 1 run. I like the Giants to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-1 Giants. |
|||||||
07-01-22 | White Sox v. Giants -140 | 1-0 | Loss | -140 | 13 h 40 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: San Francisco Giants. I like the San Francisco Giants to win this game against the Chicago White Sox on Friday. The Giants haven't looked good in their games lately, they have really been struggling in their 2 most recent series with some really bad teams in the league and they have been in their own ballpark for those games. They have a good team though and I don't expect them to continue slumping at home for very long before snapping out of it. I expect them to bounce back here and it's not like the White Sox have looked great in their games lately. The White Sox have lost 2 series in a row now and they are giving up a ton of runs in their games. A common theme for them this year has been their bullpen blowing a ton of late leads so even if the White Sox get a lead in this game, I don't expect it to last very long. Lance Lynn (1-1, 6.19 ERA) is up for the White Sox here and he hasn't looked good in his starts this year. He has only made 3 starts but has been giving up a ton of runs in all of them and I expect the bats to wake up for the Giants here. He also missed a majority of the season with an injury and I think that is still bothering him since he hasn't looked good at all. I think the Giants are going to put up some runs on him here. Alex Cobb (3-3, 5.48 ERA) is up for the Giants here and he hasn't looked great this year but he has been a lot better in his previous 3 starts and I expect him to continue getting better. He also has some good pitching from their bullpen to follow once he is taken out and I can see the White Sox struggling to put up runs on this staff here. I like the Giants to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 7-2 Giants. |

07-01-22 | Edmonton Elks v. Hamilton UNDER 46.5 | 29-25 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 56 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Elks/Tiger-Cats UNDER. I am on the under in the Edmonton Elks vs Hamilton Tiger-Cats on Friday. The Tiger-Cats have looked terrible to start the year, they had 1 decent game against the Stampeders but haven't done much in their other games with 3 losses already. They didn't score more than 13 points in 2 of those games and both of those games ended up going under this posted total. I think they will play a better game being on their home field here but I don't expect much offensive production from them with how bad they have been this year. Their defense has been terrible in their games too but I think that is a point they will try to work on here and win this game with a much better defensive effort. The Elks haven't looked great at all this year either, they are also 0-3 to start the year and their offense has looked just as bad as the Ti-Cats. The Elks have only put up 16 points or less in 2/3 of their games and their offensive effort wasn't great either in their most recent game. Their defense has also looked terrible but they gave up 59 points in their 1st game, and haven't given up that many points in their 2 previous games combined so a much better defensive effort from them lately. I expect their defense to continue getting better as they improve with more games under their belt and I expect them to focus on better defensive play being in this road game. I think both teams will try to win this game with defense and both have been so bad this year offensively that I expect neither team to do much when it comes to putting up points. I like the under here. T.M. Prediction: 24-16 Tiger-Cats. |

07-01-22 | Brewers -185 v. Pirates | 19-2 | Win | 100 | 10 h 31 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Milwaukee Brewers. I like the Milwaukee Brewers to win this game against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday. The Brewers just lost their most recent game to the Pirates but they won 4 games in a row right before that and they didn't look that bad in that loss to the Pirates. They were down in that whole game but they kept trying to come back with more runs and made the game really close again even when they were down by a few runs. I expect them to bounce back in this game with a win and their offense has still been hot lately, putting up 7 runs in that previous game. The Pirates had lost 5 games in a row before winning 2 in a row now but they have put up 16 runs in their 2 most recent games and I don't expect their offense to stay this hot for a team that is 14 games under .500. Corbin Burnes (6-4, 2.41 ERA) is up for the Brewers here and he has been their ace this year. He is having a great year and I don't expect the Pirates to put up a ton of runs on him here like they have in their previous 2 games. Burnes has had 4 great starts in a row now and he has been pitching really deep into his starts lately. I expect him to pitch another great game here and I don't see the Pirates putting up a ton of runs on him. Roansy Contreras (2-1, 2.76 ERA) is up for the Pirates here and he has not been terrible this year but he has had a few bad starts and isn't as experienced in the MLB as Burnes. The Brewers have a really good lineup and I expect them to put up runs in this game. The Pirates bullpen hasn't been great in their 2 most recent games either so I see this being more of a 1 sided game here. I like the Brewers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-2 Brewers. |
|||||||
07-01-22 | Marlins +125 v. Nationals | 6-3 | Win | 125 | 9 h 30 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Miami Marlins. I like the Miami Marlins to win this game against the Washington Nationals on Friday. The Marlins just won their most recent game over the Cardinals but they haven't looked very good lately, losing 3 games in a row before that win. The Nationals are in the opposite position here with a loss in their most recent game but they had won 3 games in a row right before that. They are still a terrible team though and have 1 of the worst records in the NL. The Marlins haven't been great this year but they have been a lot better than the Nats have and I expect the Marlins to get another win here. Trevor Rogers (3-6, 5.86 ERA) is up for the Marlins here and he hasn't looked great this year. He hasn't pitched well in his previous 3 starts but I expect him to bounce back here with a good performance. He has already seen the Nats lineup 2 times this year and he had some of his best starts of the year against them. I think he will have another great start considering the Nats have been terrible and are not very strong on offense. Josiah Gray (6-4, 3.82 ERA) is up for the Nats here and he has been really good lately but that hasn't really been a common theme for him this year either. He had a stretch of some really bad starts where he was giving up 4+ runs per start but has had 5 really good starts in a row now. I don't expect that to continue though and I think the Marlins lineup will be able to bring in some runs on him here. I like the Marlins to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Marlins. |
|||||||
06-30-22 | Padres v. Dodgers UNDER 8 | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 53 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Padres/Dodgers UNDER. I am on the under in the San Diego Padres vs LA Dodgers game on Thursday. The 2 top teams in the NL West are facing each other here but neither of them have looked really good in their games lately. The Padres just won their most recent game last night, shutting out the D-Backs with some really good pitching in that game, but they had lost 3 games in a row before that win and even blew a 6-0 lead in 1 of those games. The Dodgers haven't looked any better lately either, losing their most recent series with the Rockies and their offense wasn't that good in that series either. The Padres are only 1.5 games back from the Dodgers for 1st place in the NL West so this is a really important series. I expect these to be some very close games with great pitching since both will want to take this series. Joe Musgrove (8-1, 2.12 ERA) is up for the Padres here and he has been their ace this year. He just had his worst start of the year where he gave up 6 runs to the Phillies but I expect him to bounce back with a better performance since he has been great all year and that was his 1st start this year where he gave up more than 3 runs. The Dodgers struggled to bring in runs at Coors field which is a huge ballpark and their offense still didn't do a whole lot in that series. I think they will struggle to bring in runs on Musgrove here too. Mitch White (1-1, 4.25 ERA) is up for the Dodgers here and he hasn't been bad in his starts this year either. He has only had a few starts this year but they haven't been bad and he hasn't given up more than 3 runs in a start this year either. I think both of these pitchers will keep this a low scoring game with both lineups not hitting well. I like the under here. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Dodgers. |

06-30-22 | BC v. Ottawa OVER 47.5 | Top | 34-31 | Win | 100 | 9 h 14 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Lions/Redblacks OVER. I am on the over in the BC Lions vs Ottawa Redblacks game on Thursday. The Lions have looked really good this year, we are only 2 games into the new season but they are 2-0 already and have been winning their games with some big scores. They have put up 44+ points in both of their games and their offense has looked great. They are playing their 1st road game here but I expect them to continue their dominance and put up another great offensive effort in this game. They played their 1st 2 games on their home field and dominated both of those games with wins by 40+ points in both games. I don't expect them to be as dominant in this road game but their offense still looks really good and I expect them to put up points here. Their defense has also looked great in their games, giving up 15 points in their 1st game and only 3 points in their 2nd game of the year. I don't expect their defense to be that great here in this road game and I see the Redblacks putting up some points on them here on their home field. The Redblacks are 0-2 this year and they have been involved in 2 really low scoring games but they were both against the Blue Bombers and I expect them to play better against the Lions who are not really as good as the Blue Bombers in talent. I think the Lions will put pressure on the Redblacks to put up points here and I expect this to turn into a bit of a shootout, and with a total so low like this I can see this going over easily. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 34-27 Lions. |

06-30-22 | Brewers -118 v. Pirates | 7-8 | Loss | -118 | 9 h 47 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Milwaukee Brewers. I like the Milwaukee Brewers to win this game against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Thursday. The Brewers have won 4 games in a row now and just swept the Rays in their most recent mini series. Their pitching has been great in these games and they have been putting up a ton of runs too. They are starting a series against the Pirates here and I expect them to win this series with no issues. The Pirates just won their most recent game over the Nats but they had lost 5 games in a row before that, 2/3 to the Nats, and the Nats have been terrible all year. JT Brubaker (1-7, 4.14 ERA) is up for the Pirates here and he hasn't looked really good this year. He has been giving up a ton of runs in his starts and has been responsible for a ton of losses this Pirates team has had to take. The Brewers have a strong lineup and I expect them to bring in runs on the Pirates here. Adrian Houser (4-8, 4.50 ERA) is up for the Brewers here and he hasn't looked great in his 4 most recent starts, giving up a ton of runs in those starts but I expect him to bounce back here against this bad lineup and keep the Pirates off the board. The Brewers lineup has been hot lately and I expect that to continue here, especially with the Pirates bullpen getting used up in their previous game. I like the Brewers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 7-3 Brewers. |

06-30-22 | Twins v. Guardians -148 | 3-5 | Win | 100 | 3 h 54 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Cleveland Guardians. I like the Cleveland Guardians to win this game against the Minnesota Twins on Thursday. The Guardians have split 4 games with the Twins in this series and they have a chance to take the series win here. Their offense looked a lot better in their most recent game, putting up 7 runs on the Twins and I expect them to continue their hot hitting here. The Twins had a great start to the year but have not looked good lately and are struggling to keep their spot atop the AL Central. The Guardians have Shane Bieber (3-4, 3.07 ERA) up for this game and he has been having a great year with his pitching. He doesn't give up a ton of runs in his starts and hasn't had a single start this year where he gave up 3+ runs. He has been striking out a ton of batters lately and has been pitching deep into his starts. I expect another great performance from him here as he has been great all year and I think he can shut down the Twins here. Chris Archer (2-3, 3.14 ERA) is up for the Twins here and he had a great start to the year but lately, he has looked shaky in his starts and his ERA has been a lot higher in his most recent starts. He hasn't lasted long in his starts either and I think the Guardians are going to get to him for some early runs here. This is really important to both teams with the struggle for 1st place in the AL Central but I think the Guardians will take this in their own ballpark and put the pressure on the Twins again. I like the Guardians to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-2 Guardians. |

06-29-22 | Orioles v. Mariners -126 | 3-9 | Win | 100 | 7 h 38 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Seattle Mariners. I like the Seattle Mariners to win this game against the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday. The Mariners have looked really good in their games lately. They have won 6/8 of their previous 8 games and I expect them to add another win to that here against the Orioles. The Orioles haven't looked terrible in their games lately but they haven't been a good road team all year and they lost last night to the Mariners without even putting up a run in that game. The Mariners haven't had a tough schedule lately either but they have still been picking up wins over these bad teams and I expect them to pick up another here in this home game. Chris Flexen (3-8, 4.31 ERA) is up for the Mariners here and he was having some really bad starts near the beginning of the year but he has looked a lot better lately and hasn't been giving up as many runs in his starts. He has started 6 games in a row without giving up more than 3 runs and I think he can shut down the Orioles offense with his pitching here. Austin Voth (0-0, 7.81 ERA) is up for the Orioles here and he hasn't had many starts this year with a majority of his appearances coming out of the bullpen, but he has been terrible in those appearances with a lot those seeing him give up 3+ runs in less than 2 innings of play. He has started in his 2 most recent appearances and he hasn't looked bad in those starts but he hasn't pitched more than 3 innings in either of those and he has shown many times this year as a reliever that he doesn't need many innings to blow a game for them. I like the Mariners to win here. T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Mariners. |

06-29-22 | Pirates +1.5 v. Nationals | 8-7 | Win | 100 | 4 h 33 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Pittsburgh Pirates +1.5. I like the Pittsburgh Pirates runline in this game against the Washington Nationals on Wednesday. The Pirates have lost 5 games in a row now but they haven't looked that bad lately with all of those losses coming in close games. They lost 3/5 games in this slump by just 1 run and the other 2 losses were both by 2 runs. I think they have been putting in a good effort in all of those games and their pitching hasn't been bad either. They have already lost 2 games of this series to the Nats and I don't expect them to lose here and get swept by a team that they are better than. Mitch Keller (2-5, 4.77 ERA) is up for the Pirates here and he has looked pretty good in his previous starts. He has given up 2 runs or less in 6/7 of his previous 7 starts and has been really reliable for this team with his pitching. He gave up 3 runs in his most recent start but I expect him to bounce back with an even better performance here against the Nats who haven't really been producing a ton of offense this year. The Nats have Paolo Espino (0-1, 2.21 ERA) up on the bump in this game and he has been great all year for the Nats, but has also made a majority of his appearances in games as a reliever. He has started in his 3 most recent appearances and hasn't been bad but he has been getting worn down in those starts, pitching some of his longest stretches in games all year, and I expect him to get hit by a Pirates team that hasn't looked bad in their games lately. Even if the Pirates don't win here, I expect them to keep the game close at least. I like the Pirates runline here. T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Pirates. |

06-28-22 | Reds v. Cubs -113 | 5-3 | Loss | -113 | 10 h 42 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Chicago Cubs. I like the Chicago Cubs to win this game against the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday. The Cubs haven't looked good for a majority of the year but they have been getting better and I like what I have seen from them in their games lately. They didn't look good at all in their series against the Pirates last week but they responded well to that series loss and picked up a series win over the Cardinals on the weekend. They even shutout the Cardinals in 1 of those games with a great pitching performance and I expect them to do the same in this game. Keegan Thompson (7-2, 3.10 ERA) is up for the Cubs here and he has looked great all year, picking up the most wins on this pitching staff this year and being their most reliable arm to go to in these starts. He only had 1 bad start this year where he gave up 7 runs after some great performances coming out of the bullpen earlier this year but he has looked a lot better since that start and went 6+ innings in both of his previous 2 starts, only giving up 1 run between the 2 starts. The Reds haven't been producing a lot of offense this year, it does come in spurts for them but this is still a team that has looked terrible all year and has a lineup that is riddled with injuries. The Reds do have Luis Castillo (2-4, 3.71 ERA) up on the bump for them here but he hasn't had a lot of great starts this year and has also been really up and down too. He just gave up 4 runs in his most recent start and 3 runs in his start before that, which isn't terrible but it isn't great either and they are going to need a better performance from here with Thompson pitching on the other side. I expect the Cubs to shut down the Reds here and I see the Cubs putting up some runs on Castillo here. I like the Cubs to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Cubs. |

06-28-22 | A's v. Yankees -1.5 | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 42 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: New York Yankees -1.5. I like the New York Yankees runline in this game against the Oakland Athletics on Tuesday. The Yankees just had a very close series over the weekend where they took 2/4 games against the Astros and did so with a great offensive effort late in the games they won. This team continues to come through no matter how much they are trailing by and they did it again last night against the A's, winning that game 9-5 after going down 5-1 early in the game. They continue to stay hot at bat and put up the runs and I expect nothing less from them here against 1 of the worst teams in the league this year. The A's just won 2/3 games from the Royals over the weekend but they still haven't looked good in their games lately with the wins becoming scarce for them. Frankie Montas (3-7, 3.21 ERA) is up for the A's here and he has looked bad in a lot of his starts this year. He just had a good start in his most recent game, pitching 8 innings with no runs given up, but I don't think he is going to replicate that here in a road game against the best team in baseball. The Yankees carry the best overall record and home record this year and I think they are going to get a much better performance from their starter here than they did last night. JP Sears (2-0, 0.00 ERA) is up for the Yankees here and he has only made 3 appearances in the MLB in his career, 2 being as a reliever and 1 as a starter, but he hasn't given up a single run in 7 innings pitched in the majors now and has looked good in all of those games. His last appearance was a start where he pitched 5 innings and didn't give up a run. He has been pitching in the minors since that previous start but has been killing it there with an ERA lower than 1.50 and I expect him to put up similar numbers against a team that may as well be in the minors with the way they have played this year. I like the Yankees runline in this game. T.M. Prediction: 7-1 Yankees. |

06-27-22 | Red Sox v. Blue Jays -1.5 | 2-7 | Win | 110 | 11 h 26 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Toronto Blue Jays -1.5. I like the Toronto Blue Jays runline in this game against the Boston Red Sox on Monday. The Blue Jays have lost 2 games in a row now, losing their series to the Brewers, but I expect them to bounce back in this game being back in their own ballpark. They lost 10-3 yesterday but that game was another blown game early by their starter Kikuchi who has been terrible all year. Kevin Gausman (5-6, 3.19 ERA) is up for the Blue Jays here and he has been really good this year in a majority of his starts. He just had a really bad start 2 games ago, giving up 7 runs in less than 3 innings but he looked a lot better in his most recent start, only giving up 2 runs in 6 innings. He also had a great start to the year with some of the best pitching in the league but he has fallen off a lot since then. He has shown he has the ability to throw great games though and I expect him to continue improving in every start, getting back to where he was at the start of the year. The Red Sox have been really hot in their games lately, winning 7 games in a row now but I think that streak comes to an end here. The Red Sox are already playing this series shorthanded, having to leave some of their players behind for the trip to Canada, and I expect the Blue Jays to take advantage of the Red Sox in this situation in their own ballpark here. Connor Seabold (0-0, 0.00 ERA) is up for the Red Sox here and he hasn't even started in a game this year. Not only has he not started in a game this year, he will be making his 1st appearance this year in this game and has only made 1 other appearance in the MLB in his career. His only appearance was a start back in 2021 and he gave up 2 runs in 3 innings as a starter but hasn't had another shot in the league since that game. This may as well be like an MLB debut for him with only 1 other appearance and I expect the Blue Jays lineup to take advantage of that. Their lineup is too good to get shut down by a pitcher like Seabold in this situation and I see the Blue Jays bouncing back here with a big win by 2+ runs. I like the Blue Jays runline here. T.M. Prediction: 7-3 Blue Jays. |

06-26-22 | Avalanche v. Lightning +103 | 2-1 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 8 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Tampa Bay Lightning. I like the Tampa Bay Lightning to win this game against the Colorado Avalanche on Sunday. The Lightning aren't dead yet after being down 3-1 in the series due to a home loss, they have pulled off a road win to make this series 3-2 and now they have some momentum on their side for this game. They will be on home ice here and I expect them to bring their best effort here since their season is still on the line and I think they can tie this up here. They are the B2B defending Stanley Cup champions and they have already shown their resilience in this postseason with some comeback wins in earlier series. I think they can do it again here to force a game 7 in Colorado and a big reason for their success lately is due to Vasilevskiy looking like his old self again. He gave up some soft goals in their most recent game but they still got the win and he hasn't given up a lot of goals in their games since that bad loss in game 2. He has looked a lot better than Kuemper has looked in net and I think that is going to be the difference in this game since Vasilevskiy plays a lot better on home ice. The Avalanche have been getting their scoring chances but they aren't getting a lot of good shots on net and I expect them to continue with their struggles scoring in this series. I like the Lightning to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Lightning. |
|||||||
06-26-22 | Phillies v. Padres -148 | 8-5 | Loss | -148 | 6 h 1 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: San Diego Padres. I like the San Diego Padres to win this game against the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday. The Padres have looked really good in their games lately but they haven't looked great in this series. They have only won 1/3 of the 3 games against the Phillies here and even their win was a very slim 1-0 win in the 2nd game of this series. The Padres have looked really good all year though and I expect them to win this game on the verge of losing a series here. The Phillies weren't looking too good coming into this series since they had lost 3 games in a row and I think they will lose this road game too. Kyle Gibson (4-3, 4.06 ERA) is up for the Phillies here and he just had a start where he gave up 3 runs but that has been a common theme for him lately since he has been giving up a lot of runs in his previous 4 starts. He has also been pitching deep into these games too and I think that fatigue is going to catch up with him here since he hasn't been pitching great in those games either. Yu Darvish (7-3, 3.17 ERA) is up for the Padres here and he has been a bit up and down this year but overall, he has looked really good in his starts and doesn't give up a ton of runs in many games. He hasn't even given up 2+ runs in his 3 most recent starts and he has had a lot of those starts this year where he has been really good like that. I expect him to have another good start like that here in their own ballpark and I see the Padres winning this game because of him and splitting the series here. I like the Padres to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Padres. |
|||||||
06-26-22 | Red Sox -102 v. Guardians | 8-3 | Win | 100 | 4 h 32 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Boston Red Sox. I like the Boston Red Sox to win this game against the Cleveland Guardians on Sunday. The Red Sox have looked really good in their games lately winning 6 games in a row now and they are going to be trying for the sweep against the Guardians here. Their pitching has been really good lately since they haven't been giving up a lot of runs in their games and they have also been putting up a lot of runs themselves to put themselves in a good position to win their games. The Guardians were getting really hot last week but they have died down a bit now losing 3 games in a row, and I think they are going to make it 4 here. Aaron Civale (2-3, 7.25 ERA) is up for the Guardians here and he has been terrible all year. He has had multiple starts this year where he gave up 6+ runs and he hasn't even been pitching very deep into his starts either. He has looked a bit better lately but he still hasn't been pitching great with no scoreless outings and I expect him to perform the way he has all year here. Rich Hill (3-4, 4.35 ERA) is up for the Red Sox here and he hasn't been a great pitcher this year but he also hasn't been nearly as bad as Civale has been and I expect Hill to keep his team in this game with a good chance to win. Hill hasn't looked great lately but he is giving up less runs than Civale has been giving up and I think the Red Sox lineup will put up runs on him here since they have been playing really well. I like the Red Sox to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Red Sox. |

06-25-22 | Dodgers v. Braves OVER 8.5 | Top | 3-5 | Loss | -119 | 9 h 13 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Dodgers/Braves OVER. I am on the over in the LA Dodgers vs Atlanta Braves game on Saturday. The 1st game of this series stayed under the posted total but the Braves have been putting up a ton of runs in their games lately and have had 7+ runs total in 3 games in a row before their previous game. The Dodgers have also been putting up a ton of runs in their games with 5 games in a row seeing 8+ runs before their previous game and I expect this game to be another high scoring one. Mitch White (1-1, 3.86 ERA) is up for the Dodgers here and he hasn't had many starts this year since that isn't his usual role but he doesn't really pitch deep into his starts either and he has been giving up some runs in his previous few starts. I think the Braves will put up some runs on him here. Max Fried (7-2, 2.77 ERA) is up for the Braves here and he has been good all year but lately he has looked a bit shaky in his starts and has been giving up some runs in those games. He just had a great start in his most recent game where he gave up 1 run after 7 innings pitched but the game before that he gave up 4 runs in 5 innings and I expect the Dodgers to bring in some runs on him with that really good lineup of theirs. Both of these teams have great lineups that have been putting up a ton of runs in their games lately and I don't see this game being any different from those. The pitching isn't great in this game either and I expect there to be runs. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 8-6 Braves. |

06-24-22 | Hamilton +5 v. Winnipeg | 12-26 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 36 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Hamilton Tiger-Cats. I like the Hamilton Tiger-Cats to cover the spread against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in this game on Friday. The Ti-Cats haven't won a game yet this year but they looked a lot better in their previous game than they did in their 1st game of the year. They have gone to the Grey Cup the previous 2 years in a row now and they still have a really good team that can make a big run. They just took the Stampeders to OT where they lost by 3 points but they had a great effort in that game against 1 of the best in the CFL and I expect them to come hungry for their 1st win here. The Blue Bombers also have a good team but they haven't looked that great this year. They have won both of their games but they played the Redblacks in both games who are 1 of the worst teams in the CFL. Both wins were also really close with 1 being within a touchdown and the other being a slim 2 point win. The Blue Bombers only scored 19 points in both of those games too and I think that the Tiger-Cats will give them a much harder game here. The Tiger-Cats have a good defense like the Bombers but I think their offense is a lot better and I expect that to show here. The Ti-Cats can win this game outright so I like them to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 24-17 Tiger-Cats. |

06-24-22 | Lightning +1.5 v. Avalanche | Top | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 10 h 20 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Tampa Bay Lightning +1.5. I like the Tampa Bay Lightning puckline against the Colorado Avalanche in this game on Friday. The Lightning are trailing in this series 3-1 now and they are on the brink of not only elimination but losing the cup to the Avalanche in this game. They are still the B2B defending champions and I expect them to bring their best effort in this game with their backs against the wall. They had a great start in the previous game but as the game went on they let it get away from them and ended up losing in OT on home ice. The Lightning know they can't lose this game so I expect their best effort here to try and win and even if they lose, I don't expect this game to be a blowout. The Lightning already took the Avalanche to OT in the 1st game of this series in Colorado, and even their 2 meetings during the regular season went to OT so these games are always close when they play each other. The Lightning still have the better goalie with Vasilevskiy in net and I think the Lightning will score some goals in this game to keep up with anything the Avalanche throw at them. The defense was also great in the previous game and I expect these 2 teams to be neck and neck all night. I like the Lightning puckline here to win or at least keep this game close. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Lightning. |

06-24-22 | Nationals v. Rangers -147 | 2-1 | Loss | -147 | 10 h 9 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Texas Rangers. I like the Texas Rangers to win this game against the Washington Nationals on Friday. The Rangers have won 2 games in a row now and have been getting hot in their ballpark here, putting up some runs in those 2 wins. Their pitching has also been great since they only gave up 2 runs in 2 games against a hot Phillies team. The Nationals haven't looked good this year with 1 of the worst records in the league and I don't see them playing any better in this road game. They have won 2/3 of their previous 3 games but those have also been their only 2 wins in their previous 11 games. Paolo Espino (0-1, 2.29 ERA) is up for the Nationals here and he has been great all year as a reliever but that is mainly his role on this staff and he has only started this year in his 2 most recent appearances. He wasn't great in those starts either giving up 3 runs in his most recent start and I think he is going to have a bad performance here against a hot team pitching in a role he isn't used to. Dane Dunning (1-5, 4.38 ERA) is up for the Rangers here and he hasn't looked great lately but he has been having a pretty good year overall. He has had 2 bad starts in his previous 3 now but I expect him to bounce back in this home game and his team has been putting up a ton of runs too so I expect him to get the run support in this game. The Rangers have looked good on this mini run they have started here and I expect them to extend that here. I like the Rangers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Rangers. |

06-23-22 | Astros v. Yankees -120 | 6-7 | Win | 100 | 8 h 6 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: New York Yankees. I like the New York Yankees to win this game against the Houston Astros on Thursday. The Yankees have looked really good all year being the best team in the league at the moment. They have looked really good in their games lately too and they just avoided another loss last night after erasing a 4-0 deficit against the Rays to win 5-4. This team has been really resilient all year and they just don't lose a lot of games since they have been on a tear all year. I think they are going to continue their hot streak here and win another game here against the 2nd best team in the AL at the moment. The Yankees have looked great all year but they have looked even better in their home games. Jameson Taillon (8-1, 2.70 ERA) is up for the Yankees here and he has looked great all year for them. He has only had a few rough starts this year and even then, he only had 1 start where he gave up more than 3 runs in a game this year. I expect him to be his usual self in this game and the Astros haven't been a great team with their batting this year anyway. I see Taillon shutting the door on them here and I expect a lot of run support for him here too. Framber Valdez (7-3, 2.78 ERA) is up for the Astros here and he has also looked good this year in a majority of his starts, but he has also looked shaky in his 3 most recent starts. He has given up a lot of runs during this time as well as hits and he has also been walking more batters than usual. I think the Yankees will take advantage of anything like that in this game and I don't see Valdez having a really large margin for error here. I see the Yankees busting him open for runs here while Taillon keeps this game at bay for the Yankees. I like the Yankees to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Yankees. |

06-23-22 | Rockies v. Marlins -142 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 1 h 12 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Miami Marlins. I like the Miami Marlins to win this game against the Colorado Rockies on Thursday. The Marlins have looked good lately winning 2 games in a row now and they are going for the sweep against the Rockies here. The Rockies just swept the Padres in their own ballpark in their previous series but now they are facing a sweep in this road series and they have really been terrible in road games all year. They have almost double the home wins as they do road wins and I expect this to be another road loss for them here. Braxton Garrett (1-2, 4.85 ERA) is up for the Marlins here and he has only made 3 starts this year. He hasn't been terrible in his starts but he hasn't been great either. I still think he will perform better in this game though and I expect him to shut down the Rockies here who haven't been hitting well in road games all year. Kyle Freeland (3-5, 4.46 ERA) is up for the Rockies here and he has performed similar to Garrett this year but has also pitched in many more games with a much larger sample size. Freeland has consistently been bad in his starts giving up a lot of runs in a lot of his starts and I see him giving up a lot here too. The Marlins have looked good lately and they have been putting up a lot more runs in these home games. I expect them to start catching fire here in their home games and I think they extend their run with this game. I like the Marlins to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Marlins. |

06-22-22 | Avalanche v. Lightning -103 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -103 | 10 h 59 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Tampa Bay Lightning. I like the Tampa Bay Lightning to win this game against the Colorado Avalanche on Wednesday. The Lightning blew out the Avalanche in the 3rd game 6-2 and now that they have a win under their belt, I expect them to come with another great effort here and tie up this series. They looked a lot better than the Avs in that game and Vasilevskiy was back to his old self making some really good saves in that game. I expect Vasilevskiy to play like that again and shut the door on the Avs here with some more great saves in this game. Kuemper was also a big liability for the Avs in that game. He looked terrible giving up a ton of goals and the goals he gave up were not even on great shots either which makes his performance look even worse and I think his confidence will be a bit shaken in this game. The Lightning have shown they can score goals in this series now and I expect them to continue with the goaltending issues for the Avs. I also think the Lightning have the better goaltending here in general and I expect Vasilevskiy to steal this game if the Lightning offense gets stunted for some reason. The Lightning are still the defending champions and they look very hungry for a 3rd cup in a row now. I expect them to give a great effort on home ice here and win this game to even up the series. I like the Lightning to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Lightning. |

06-22-22 | Phillies -130 v. Rangers | 2-4 | Loss | -130 | 6 h 49 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Philadelphia Phillies. I like the Philadelphia Phillies to win this game against the Texas Rangers on Wednesday. The Phillies have been really hot since firing their coach but they have lost 2 games in a row now and I expect them to bounce back here. They have been embarrassed in their 2 most recent games, losing in Washington 9-3 and now in Texas 7-0 last night. The Phillies have been putting up a ton of runs lately though and after 2 bad games in a row, I think they will bounce back with a much better performance and I expect to see them split this mini series with a win here. Zack Wheeler (6-3, 2.69 ERA) is up for the Phillies here and he has looked good all year. He had a couple of bad starts right at the beginning of the year but he has really been a lot better and has not given up many runs in his previous 6 starts. He has pitched in 6+ inning every game of his previous 6 starts and has only given up 6 runs total during that time. I expect him to pitch another great game here since he has looked great lately and I don't see the Rangers putting up a ton of runs on him. Jon Gray (2-3, 4.27 ERA) is up for the Rangers here and he hasn't looked good at all this year. He has looked good in his 2 most recent starts only giving up 1 run total in those starts but that has not been the common theme for him this year. I expect him to regress back to his norm in this game and for a lineup like the Phillies that has been really hot lately, they should put up runs on him here with no issues. I like the Phillies to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 7-1 Phillies. |

T.M. Selection: Seattle Mariners. I like the Seattle Mariners to win this game against the Oakland Athletics on Tuesday. The Mariners have looked terrible lately losing 3 games in a row and they haven't even put up a run in their 2 previous games but I don't see that happening again here and I think they are catching a bit of a break with the Athletics here. As bad as the Mariners have been lately, the A's have been even worse. They won 2/4 of their previous 4 games but they have looked so bad over the last few weeks and have been losing a ton of games, so many to the point where they are 1 of the worst teams in the league. Marco Gonzalez (3-7, 3.41 ERA) is up for the Mariners here and he hasn't been great this year but he hasn't been bad either and lately he has been pitching well. He hasn't given up more than 3 runs in his previous 4 starts and he has even been giving up less and less runs in each start. I expect him to pitch another good game here and he shouldn't run into many issues either with how bad the A's have been lately, he will keep them off the board here. James Kaprielian (0-4, 6.31 ERA) is up for the A's here and he has been terrible this year. He has been struggling all year and has given up 4+ runs in a ton of his starts already, and that has been a common theme for him all year. He has been giving up runs all year and I think this is going to be another game where he gives up a ton of runs and blows this game for the A's. I like the Mariners to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-2 Mariners. |

06-20-22 | Avalanche v. Lightning OVER 6 | 2-6 | Win | 112 | 8 h 23 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Avalanche/Lightning OVER. I am on the over in the Colorado Avalanche vs Tampa Bay Lightning game on Monday. Both of the games in this series have gone over the posted total and I think this game is also going to go over too. The Avalanche have actually had 4 games in a row now with 6+ goals total in them and the Lightning have had 2 in a row now. The 2nd game of this series was over the total and the Lightning didn't even contribute to that with the Avs scoring all 7 goals to put that game over. I think there is going to be a lot of goals in this game too but I expect a much better effort from the Lightning on home ice here too. The Avs have looked really good in the 2 games and have been getting to Vasilevskiy with some really good shots and scoring chances so, as good as Vasilevskiy is, I expect the Avs to put some pucks in the net here. The Lightning were embarrassed in the previous game though and I expect them to give a better effort in this game. They are on home ice so I see them being a little more dominant here than they have been in the series thus far and I expect them to put some pucks in the net here too since they haven't really challenge Kuemper yet. Either way, I see this being a high scoring game since the Lightning won't be able to keep the Avs off the board with the speed they have and if the Lightning want to win here they are going to need to score some goals. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-3 Lightning. |
|||||||
06-20-22 | Cardinals v. Brewers -163 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 17 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Milwaukee Brewers. I like the Milwaukee Brewers to win this game against the St Louis Cardinals on Monday. The Brewers have won 3 games in a row now and are starting to get hot again. They just swept the Reds in their most recent series and I expect them to continue on that roll here and win this game over the Cardinals. The Cardinals haven't looked good lately losing 3/4 of their previous 4 games and I expect them to lose another here in this road game. Miles Mikolas (5-4, 2.62 ERA) is up for the Cardinals here and he has been good this year but I think he is due for a bad start here. He has pitched 8+ innings in his 2 most recent starts and I expect that to catch up with him here since he will not be able to keep it up forever. I see him getting hit in this game and I expect a hot team like the Brewers to put up a ton of runs on him here after 2 great starts where he almost pitched full games. Corbin Burnes (4-4, 2.52 ERA) is up for the Brewers here and he has been their ace this year and a really reliable pitcher for them. He has looked really good in a majority of his starts lately and he hasn't been pitching deep into games either. I think he is going to have another great start against a cold Cardinals team here and I see this game being another win for the Brewers with this pitching matchup. I like the Brewers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-1 Brewers. |
|||||||
06-20-22 | Yankees v. Rays +118 | 4-2 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 18 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Tampa Bay Rays. I like the Tampa Bay Rays to win this game against the New York Yankees on Monday. The Rays just lost their most recent series to the Orioles over the weekend and that is a really bad look on them but even worse, they were swept by the Yankees in a road series right before that. I think the Rays are going to be looking to bounce back here though and now that they are back in their own ballpark for this series, I expect a better effort from them wanting to get revenge on the Yankees here. The Yankees have been really hot lately but just had their 9 game win streak ended by the Blue Jays yesterday, and I think the Rays can make it 2 losses in a row here. Gerrit Cole (6-1, 3.33 ERA) is up for the Yankees here and he just had a really good start where he didn't give up a run but he also has had some really bad starts this year and it has been more of a common theme for him than some of their other starting pitchers in the rotation. Cole has been dealing with issues all year on gripping the ball, he has already made 2 really good starts against the Rays this year and I think they are finally going to put up some runs on him here. He started in 1 of the games last week and I don't expect him to have another outing like that against the same team in such a short period of time. Shane McClanahan (7-3, 1.84 ERA) is up for the Rays here and he has been great all year with no bad starts. He has only been charged with 3 earned runs 2 times this year and those were his worst starts of the year. He pitched well against the Yankees last week but did give up some hits and I expect him to come with a better gameplan to throw the Yankee batters off. I like the Rays to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Rays. |

06-19-22 | Guardians v. Dodgers -160 | 5-3 | Loss | -160 | 8 h 52 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: LA Dodgers. I like the LA Dodgers to win this game against the Cleveland Guardians on Sunday. The Dodgers have been having a bit of a tough time over the previous weeks but they have looked a lot better lately winning 3/4 of their previous 4 games. Their 1 loss was against the Guardians in the 1st game of this series but they won their game against them yesterday 7-1 and I think the Dodgers will get another win here winning this series over the Guardians. The Guardians have been really hot lately winning 5 games in a row before losing their most recent game but I think they are going to pick up another loss here in LA. Shane Bieber (3-3, 3.01 ERA) is up for the Guardians here and he has been good this year but lately he has looked a bit shaky on the bump and I think the Dodgers can get him for some runs in this game. He just had a start in his most recent game where he gave up 3 runs and he has been giving up a lot of runs in his roads starts specifically this year. He has also been giving up a lot of hits in his road starts and I expect the Dodgers to make good with their opportunities if he gets himself into trouble here with players on base. Andrew Heaney (1-0, 0.00 ERA) is up for the Dodgers here and he has only had 2 starts this year but hasn't given up any earned runs in either of those games and I expect him to do the same here. He is coming off an injury and hasn't pitched since April but he is well rested and I expect him to pick up right where he left off. I like the Dodgers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 7-3 Dodgers. |
|||||||
06-19-22 | Royals -140 v. A's | 0-4 | Loss | -140 | 8 h 50 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Kansas City Royals. I like the Kansas City Royals to win this game against the Oakland Athletics on Sunday. The Royals have looked pretty good in their games lately. They have won 3 games in a row now and are on a bit of a roll. They have already won both of their games against the A's in this series and I think they can get the sweep here. The A's have been terrible lately losing 2 games in a row now but they also have just 1 win in their previous 6 games. The A's have only managed to put up 1 run in the 2 games against the Royals while the Royals have put up 7 runs total between the 2 games. Brady Singer (3-1, 4.24 ERA) is up for the Royals here and he has been a good pitcher for them all year. He had 1 bad start this year but has pitched really well in his other starts and just had another good start in his most recent game. The A's are already struggling to put up runs lately and I think Singer is really going to shut them down here. Jared Koenig (0-2, 11.25 ERA) is up for the A's here and he has had a really rough entry into the league. He is still in his rookie year and has only had 2 starts in the league but he was terrible in both starts, giving up 4+ runs in each and I think he is in line to have another bad start here. The Royals have had issues hitting the ball for weeks now but they have really corrected that in their previous few games and I expect that to show here when they put up runs on this rookie and sweep the A's with another win here. I like the Royals to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-2 Royals. |
|||||||
06-18-22 | Padres -111 v. Rockies | 4-5 | Loss | -111 | 12 h 0 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: San Diego Padres. I like the San Diego Padres to win this game against the Colorado Rockies on Saturday. The Padres have looked good lately getting hot in their previous few games. They just lost the 1st game of this series to the Rockies yesterday but they had won 4 games in a row before that and I think they will get back to their winning ways here. Before winning those 4 games in a row, the Padres split a 4 game home series with the Rockies so their 3 most recent losses have all been against the Rockies. I expect them to be angry over that series they should have won and already being down in this series now, I expect them to give their best effort here and win this game to have a chance at winning the series on Sunday. Nick Martinez (2-3, 3.74 ERA) is up for the Padres here and he has been good this year. He has looked really good in his starts lately, with no bad starts in his previous 5 and he only had 1 game during that time where he gave up 3 runs but that was the most runs he gave up in a game in his 5 most recent starts. Martinez also struck out 9 batters in his most recent start and I expect him to continue that great effort into this game too. German Marquez (3-5, 6.09 ERA) is up for the Rockies here and he hasn't looked great in his starts this year. He didn't look terrible in his 2 most recent starts but those were both road games and the previous 3 times he pitched in his home ballpark at Coors Field he gave up a ton of runs in each start, including 6 runs given up in his most recent start alone. I expect the Padres to play better here and bring in some runs on Marquez who hasn't looked great lately. I like the Padres to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 8-5 Padres. |
|||||||
06-18-22 | Lightning v. Avalanche -147 | Top | 0-7 | Win | 100 | 11 h 7 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Colorado Avalanche. I like the Colorado Avalanche to win this game against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday. The Avalanche have a 1-0 series lead here after winning the 1st game of this series in OT 4-3 but they looked like the better team in that game for a majority of it. They came out quick in that game taking an early 3-1 lead before the Lightning tied it 3-3 on 2 bad goals but the Avalanche still kept all the pressure in Tampa's zone and I expect to see the same thing in this game. The Avalanche are hot and have won 6 games in a row now. Including the 1st game of this series, the Avalanche are now 3-0 against the Lightning this year and I expect the Avalanche to make that 4-0 after this game. They looked a lot faster than the Lightning in that game and were outskating them for a majority of the game. Vasilevskiy is the shining star on the Lightning and he didn't look good at all in that game. He gave up 4 goals and didn't face many shots either and a lot of the goals he gave up were really fluky goals too. Vasilevskiy needs to play better or the Lightning will have no chance in this game to win it. The Avalanche are too fast for the Lightning to keep up with and I see the Avs tiring the Lightning out again like they did in the 1st game. I like the Avalanche to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Avalanche. |
|||||||
06-18-22 | Yankees v. Blue Jays -129 | Top | 4-0 | Loss | -129 | 6 h 58 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Toronto Blue Jays. I like the Toronto Blue Jays to win this game against the New York Yankees on Saturday. The Blue Jays have lost 2 games in a row now but both losses were really bad for the Blue Jays. They had a 10-2 loss to the Orioles and then had a 12-3 loss to the Yankees yesterday, both games in their own ballpark. I think they are going to be better in this game though and I expect them to bounce back here. They are playing the beat team in the league at the moment and that should be enough to put some fire in the Blue Jays here and bring in some runs in this game. The Yankees have won 8 games in a row now but I expect that run to end here. The Yankees offense exploded on the Blue Jays yesterday but they just played a series against the Rays where they struggled to score runs because of the Rays pitching and I think they are going to have a similar issue here with the Blue Jays pitching. Alek Manoah (8-1, 1.67 ERA) is up for the Blue Jays here and he has been great all year for them. He hasn't given up a run in his 2 most recent starts and he has only had 1 start this year where he gave up more than 2 runs. He always pitches late into their games since he is just that good and he also strikes a lot of batters out in his starts. I expect to see the Yankees struggle here with him pitching and I think the Blue Jays can take advantage. Jameson Taillon (7-1, 2.93 ERA) is up for the Yankees here and he has also been great this year but he has also looked shaky in his 2 most recent starts and I expect the Blue Jays lineup to bring in some runs on him here. He has given up 7 runs total in his previous 2 starts which isn't that good but he hasn't been striking a lot of batters out either and has been giving up a ton of hits in his starts too. I think the Blue Jays are going to make good of their opportunity here and I expect them to pounce on Taillon here since he hasn't been his best lately. I like the Blue Jays to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Blue Jays. |
|||||||
06-17-22 | Rangers v. Tigers -116 | 7-0 | Loss | -116 | 10 h 11 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Detroit Tigers. I like the Detroit Tigers to win this game against the Texas Rangers on Friday. The Tigers have lost 5 games in a row now and they haven't been hitting well in those games either. They only put up 1 run against the Rangers yesterday but they only gave up 3 runs too and I think they can win this game since they have been great at home this year and the Rangers haven't been hitting well lately either. The Rangers may have won yesterday but they had lost 2 games in a row before that to the Astros and they didn't produce a ton of offense in those games. Tarik Skubal (5-3, 2.71 ERA) is up for the Tigers here and he has been their ace this year. He has been having a great year, he just had 2 bad starts in his 2 most recent games where he gave up 7 runs total between the 2 starts but those have also been his worst starts this year and I expect him to bounce back here in this home game against a much colder lineup that the previous one he faced. The Rangers are already struggling to put up runs now and I think Skubal will amplify those issues for the Rangers keeping them off the board with a chance for his team to win this game. Jon Gray (1-3, 4.85 ERA) is up for the Rangers here and he hasn't been good this year. He just had a great start against the White Sox in his most recent start but that has been the exception this year since he has been really up and down in his starts but has been giving up a ton of runs in a majority of his starts this year. He has given up 4+ runs in multiple starts this year and I think his bad pitching will be enough to get this Tigers offense going here. I like the Tigers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Tigers. |

06-17-22 | Brewers -104 v. Reds | 5-4 | Win | 100 | 10 h 41 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Milwaukee Brewers. I like the Milwaukee Brewers to win this game against the Cincinnati Reds on Friday. The Brewers just went through a bit of a slump where they were losing a lot of games and not putting up a ton of runs either. They still haven't looked great lately losing their previous series but their offensive production is up and I expect them to beat up on a bad Reds team in this series, getting back to their winning ways. The Reds have looked good lately winning 3/4 of their previous 4 games but they haven't had a really strong schedule as of late either and I think the Brewers are the strongest team they are playing during this stretch. Eric Lauer (5-2, 3.36 ERA) is up for the Brewers here and he has looked good in a majority of his starts this year. He is coming off a terrible start in his previous game where he gave up 8 runs but he was pitching great before that and I expect him to bounce back here with a much better performance. Hunter Greene (3-7, 5.10 ERA) is up for the Reds here and he is still in his rookie year but hasn't been great overall this year. He has pitched well in his 2 most recent starts but he had 2 games right before that where he gave up a total of 9 runs in the 2 starts and I think he is going to have another bad start here after those 2 good ones he just had. Consistency has been an issue for him this year and I see him getting beat up on by the Brewers lineup here which has been batting much better in their games lately. I like the Brewers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Brewers. |
|||||||
06-16-22 | Padres -1.5 v. Cubs | 6-4 | Win | 100 | 7 h 36 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: San Diego Padres -1.5. I like the San Diego Padres runline against the Chicago Cubs in this game on Thursday. The Padres have won 3 games in a row now, all 3 wins coming against the Cubs in this series, and I think they can win this game by 2+ runs to sweep the Cubs here. They have looked really good in this series, winning all 3 games against the Cubs by 2+ runs and their bats have been really hot in their 2 most recent games. They put up 12 runs and 19 runs in their previous 2 games and I don't see that stopping here. They were even down 4-2 early in the previous game but they turned it on in the 4th inning and there was no looking back from there as they continued to bring in the runs in every inning after that and ended the game scoring 19 runs to the 5 for the Cubs. The Cubs haven't looked good at all lately either, they have lost all 3 games in this series but they have also lost 9 games in a row now too. Their pitching has looked terrible in a ton of their games too, they have given up a ton of runs to the Padres here and they did the same in their previous series against the Yankees. Matt Swarmer (1-1, 4.24 ERA) is up for the Cubs here and he hasn't looked great this year. The pitching has already been bad for the Cubs lately and now they are going with this pitcher still in his rookie season who has only made 3 career starts and just gave up 6 runs in his most recent start to the Yankees. The Padres may not be as hot as the Yankees but their bats are just as hot at the moment and I think they pour the runs on in this game. Joe Musgrove (7-0, 1.50 ERA) is up for the Padres here and he has looked incredible all year. He hasn't had a start this year where he gave up more than 2 runs and I expect him to continue pitching the way he has been and help get another win for the team here. I expect the Padres to put up a ton of runs on the Cubs here while the Cubs struggle to bring in runs against Musgrove and the Padres here. I like the Padres runline in this game. T.M. Prediction: 8-2 Padres. |

06-15-22 | Lightning +1.5 v. Avalanche | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 27 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Tampa Bay Lightning +1.5. I like the Tampa Bay Lightning puckline in this game against the Colorado Avalanche on Wednesday. The Lightning have looked really good in their games lately and I think they are going to continue that here winning this game. They have won 4 games in a row after losing the 1st 2 games of that series to the Rangers but they had a sweep over the Panthers in the previous round too so those 2 losses to the Rangers have been their only 2 losses in their previous 12 games. Those 2 losses also came right after a 10 day layoff for the Lightning after sweeping the Panthers, so they weren't at their best for that game. The Lightning really turned it on in the previous series against the Rangers and I think they have their killer instinct back with the way their defense has looked. Vasilevskiy has also looked incredible in these most recent games and I expect he will continue his great performance into this series. The Avalanche swept the Oilers in the previous round so they are facing a similar situation that the Lightning were with a long layoff before playing this series. I think we are going to see the same thing here for the Avalanche as we saw in the Lightning and I expect the Avalanche to get a slower start here and not be on the ball after such a long layoff. Even if the Avalanche win this game, I don't see them winning by more than 1 goal here since Vasilevskiy has looked so good in their games but I think the Lightning can win this game and take the series lead right off the bat here. I like the Lightning puckline in this game. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Lightning. |
|||||||
06-15-22 | Pirates v. Cardinals -160 | 6-4 | Loss | -160 | 9 h 57 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: St Louis Cardinals. I like the St Louis Cardinals to win this game against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday. The Cardinals have looked really good lately and have really been beating up on these bad teams in their division. They have won 2 games in a row now and are going for the sweep of this series here but they also won their series before this over the Reds and they have been putting up a ton of runs in the process. Their pitching has also been great lately, only giving up 2 runs total in their 2 most recent games but Mikolas also pitched a full game in their most recent, almost getting the no-hitter, so their bullpen should be fresh for this game. I think they are going to continue pitching well here and their offense has been so hot so I expect them to put up runs here too. The Pirates have been terrible lately losing 9 games in a row now and they have also been swept in their 2 most recent series. I expect them to get swept for their 3rd in a row here though. Roansy Contreras (1-1, 2.57 ERA) is up for the Pirates here and he hasn't been bad this year with no terrible starts under his belt yet but he is still new to this league and it's only a matter of time until a team really gets to him. I think the Cardinals are going to do that here with this hot offense and he doesn't normally pitch very deep into games either so I definitely see the Cardinals scoring on their bullpen here too. Jack Flaherty (0-0, 0.00 ERA) is up for the Cardinals here and he is pitching in his 1st start of the year here after coming back from an injury that has been keeping him out. He has been a really good pitcher throughout his career though and I expect a good performance out of him here against a bad team that isn't hitting well at the moment. I think the Cardinals are going to continue their run here and sweep the Pirates. I like the Cardinals to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Cardinals. |

06-14-22 | Orioles v. Blue Jays -1.5 | 6-5 | Loss | -103 | 9 h 49 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Toronto Blue Jays -1.5. I like the Toronto Blue Jays runline in this game against the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday. The Blue Jays have looked really good in their games lately winning 3/4 of their previous 4 games. They have been putting up a ton of runs in these games too. They have won 8/12 of their previous 12 games and all 8 of those games they won were by 2+ runs. Their bats are getting hot and I think this is a good time to jump on the Blue Jays while they are still on this run. They have looked great in their 2 most recent road series' and I think they are only going to explode on offense starting a homestand here against what is the worst team in their division. They just pounded the Orioles 11-1 in the 1st game of this series too and I expect them to repeat that effort here. Jordan Lyles (3-5, 4.97 ERA) is up for the Orioles here and he has been struggling in his starts this year. Lyles hasn't been pitching well all year and he has really been bad lately, giving up 3+ runs in 4 starts in a row now and he has given up 10 runs total in his 2 most recent starts alone. Yusei Kikuchi (2-2, 4.44 ERA) is up for the Blue Jays here and he hasn't looked great in his 2 most recent starts but he still hasn't been as bad as Lyles has been lately and Kikuchi has been pitching much better all year too. Kikuchi wasn't great early on but he has been improving and I think he is trending in the right direction here. I expect Lyles to continue pitching the way he has been and I see the Blue Jays putting up another big offensive performance in this game. I like the Blue Jays runline here. T.M. Prediction: 7-2 Blue Jays. |

06-13-22 | Reds v. Diamondbacks -142 | 5-4 | Loss | -142 | 12 h 14 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Arizona Diamondbacks. I like the Arizona Diamondbacks to win this game against the Cincinnati Reds on Monday. The D-backs just won their most recent game over the Phillies on Sunday avoiding a sweep by them and now that their bats have gotten hot again I expect them to win this game over the Reds in their own ballpark. The D-backs just split a 4 game series with the Reds less than a week ago but they put up a ton of runs in that entire series and I expect them to the same here again. The Reds were starting to put a bit of a run together but then they lost 4 games in a row with their offense really dying down in those games. They just won their most recent game over the Cardinals but haven't looked good lately in any games before that. Mike Minor (0-2, 8.64 ERA) is up for the Reds here and he just came back from an injury but hasn't looked good in his 2 starts. He missed the 1st 2 months of the season due to his injury and just had his 1st start this June but he has given up 8 runs in a little over 8 innings pitched and I think he is going to have another bad game here and give up a ton of runs to a hot hitting team. Merill Kelly (5-3, 3.32 ERA) is up for the D-backs here and he has looked great all year. He has only had 1 really bad start this year but other than that he doesn't give up a lot of runs in his starts. I think he is going to continue the way he has been pitching this year in this game and I expect him to keep the Reds offense dried up while the D-backs bring in the runs on Minor and the Reds here. I like the Diamondbacks to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 7-1 Diamondbacks. |

06-13-22 | Celtics v. Warriors OVER 210.5 | 94-104 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Celtics/Warriors OVER. I am on the over in the Boston Celtics vs Golden State Warriors game on Monday. The Warriors evened up the series at 2 in the 4th game and their offense looked a lot better in that game than it did in game 3. The Warriors had a much better start in that game and kept up with the Celtics in the 1st half, turning on the jets in the 3rd quarter and then pulling away in the 4th. Brown and Tatum both had 20+ points in that game but they didn't dominate the game the way they did in game 3 and I expect them both to have a much better offensive effort in this road game to try and take a series lead back home with a chance to win the championship there. The Warriors did look much better offensively in game 4 though and I expect them to continue that effort in this game on their own home court here to take an all important series lead going back to Boston for game 6. This is a very important game in the series so I expect both teams to come with their best effort here and I see both putting up a lot of points early in this game to try and take the lead and pull away, putting pressure on the other team to come back. I don't think either team will want to trail here and play from behind in this game so I expect them both to push each other to put up more and more points on the board. I expect a big offensive game here from both teams, I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 117-112 Warriors. |

06-12-22 | Rays -113 v. Twins | 6-0 | Win | 100 | 5 h 28 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Tampa Bay Rays. I like the Tampa Bay Rays to win this game against the Minnesota Twins on Sunday. The Rays have lost 2 games in a row now, both against the Twins losing the 1st 2 games of this series, but they had just swept the Cardinals in their previous series and their pitching has been good lately. I think they have a much better pitching matchup in this game and I expect them to win this game avoiding the sweep here. Their offense hasn't been great lately but it has really picked up in this series. They lost the 1st game 9-4 but jumped out to an early 3-0 lead in the previous game. They still lost that game 6-5 but still made a bit of a comeback after coughing up the lead and going down by a few runs. I expect their offense to be better here since their bats have been getting hot and I think their pitching will keep them in this game. Jeffrey Springs (2-2, 1.62 ERA) is up for the Rays here and he has been having a great year so far. He has been great in his appearances as a reliever which is what he started the year as but in his previous 6 appearances he has been a starter and has looked really good in those games too. His 1st 2 starts were a bit shaky as he only went a little over 4 innings in both of those but only gave up 3 runs total, all 3 coming in 1 game, and his 4 most recent starts have all been great with him going at least 5 innings and not giving up more than 2 runs in any starts. The Twins have Cole Sands (0-2, 8.49 ERA) here and he hasn't looked great this year in his 1st year in the league. He has made 4 appearances, his 1st 2 as a reliever where he gave up 3 runs total in 4 inning, and his 2 most recent were as a starter where he gave up 4 runs in both starts and only pitched in a little under 8 innings. He has had a rough entry into the MLB and I think that is going to continue for him here. I like the Rays to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-2 Rays. |

06-12-22 | Orioles v. Royals -123 | 10-7 | Loss | -123 | 5 h 27 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Kansas City Royals. I like the Kansas City Royals to win this game against the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday. The Royals have already guaranteed themselves a split here winning the 1st 2 games of this series but they finally gave 1 up to the Orioles in the most recent game. That was a close 6-4 loss for the Royals but I think they have looked like the better team in this series. The Royals were starting to get a bit hot in their previous series, stealing the last game of that series against the Blue Jays and avoiding the sweep, but their bats are really getting hot now and I think they can take this game to win this home series. Brad Keller (1-7, 4.19 ERA) is up for the Royals here and he hasn't looked good this year with his previous few starts being really bad but I think he is due for a bounce back here. His team has been hitting the ball well in this series and I expect them to back him up with a lot of run support here. Dean Kremer (0-1, 6.23 ERA) is up for the Orioles here and he has only pitched in 1 game this year, he started that game and gave up 3 runs in a little over 4 innings. He has been out for a majority of the year with an injury though and that only start for him this year was his 1st game back. I expect him to give up runs again here and I also don't see him going deep into the game but the Orioles bullpen hasn't looked any good lately and I expect the Orioles to give up runs against a hot hitting team here. I like the Royals to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 7-3 Royals. |

06-12-22 | Pirates v. Braves OVER 9 | 3-5 | Loss | -100 | 5 h 54 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Pirates/Braves OVER. I am on the over in the Pittsburgh Pirates vs Atlanta Braves game on Sunday. The Braves have won all 3 games of this series against the Pirates and 2 of those games were on the lower scoring end but I think this game is going to follow suit with their most recent game and go over the total here. The Braves just won 10-4 yesterday and they have been getting really hot lately. The Braves have won 10 games in a row now and they have been putting up a ton of runs in those games which has helped fuel this huge run. I don't see them going cold here and I expect them to put up a ton of runs again in this game. Jose Quintana (1-3, 3.19 ERA) is up for the Pirates here and he has been good this year for the most part but lately he has looked shaky and I think he is going to continue going downhill since he has been in his previous games. He just gave up 4 runs in his most recent start and he hasn't looked great in any of his previous 4 starts either. He has been giving up a lot of runs in those games and he has been giving up a ton of hits too. Those hits haven't been converting into as many runs as they could have but against a hot team like the Braves with the way they're hitting, this is going to be trouble for the Pirates. Kyle Wright (6-3, 2.39 ERA) is up for the Braves here and he has looked great this year with only 1 really bad start so far but I think he is due for a bad game since he has been pitching a lot better than he actually is. I don't think he will give up a ton of runs here but I expect him to get hit here and I think he will contribute to this game going over. I expect to see a lot of runs here, I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 8-5 Braves. |

06-11-22 | Jake Matthews v. Andre Fialho -129 | 1-0 | Loss | -129 | 13 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Andre Fialho. I like Andre Fialho to win this fight against Jake Matthews on Saturday night. Fialho has looked really good in his fights lately winning 2 fights in a row now. He has also won 6/7 of his previous 7 fights with only that 1 loss and that 1 loss came by decision. All 6 of his wins during that time were by KO or TKO and I think he is going to give another great performance in this fight too. Jake Matthews hasn't looked great in his fights lately and I think he is on a bit of a downturn here. He just lost his most recent fight after winning 3 in a row but that is also his 2nd loss in his previous 5 fights. Both of his losses during that time came by submission too while his 3 wins in between were all by decision. I think Fialho has the upper hand here with how good he has looked in his fights lately and I think he can even win this fight with another KO or TKO since he has been racking them up lately. Matthews has not been fighting well lately and even when he gets a win it's by decision which I don't think he will be able to pull off here. I like Andre Fialho to win this fight. T.M. Prediction: Andre Fialho wins by TKO. |

06-11-22 | Red Sox v. Mariners -121 | Top | 6-7 | Win | 100 | 12 h 12 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Seattle Mariners. I like the Seattle Mariners to win this game against the Boston Red Sox on Saturday. The Mariners lost a really close game to the Red Sox last night 4-3 but the Mariners have looked really good in their games lately and I think they are going to bounce back at home here. The Red Sox have also been really hot lately but they just struggled to beat the Angels in their previous series, winning 3 games by 1 run and losing the last which ended a long drought for the Angels, and now they just won another game over the Mariners but by 1 run again. I think the Red Sox are cooling off now and I expect them to lose another game here in Seattle. George Kirby (1-1, 3.38 ERA) is up for the Mariners here and he has looked good in his starts this year. He has had 2 bad starts this year but overall, he has looked pretty good and I think he will keep the Red Sox from putting up a lot of runs here in their home ballpark. Michael Wacha (4-1, 1.99 ERA) is up for the Red Sox here and he has been having a great year but I also think he has been pitching too well and is overachieving a bit for this year. I expect some regression on his end and I think this is the perfect spot for him to regress on the road in Seattle after pitching a great game on the road in his previous start. He gave up no runs and only 3 hits after pitching a full game against the struggling Angels and I don't see him repeating that performance again here, especially since that previous start was him coming back from an injury that kept him out a few weeks. I think this is a good spot for the Mariners to get to him since they have been hitting really well lately. I like the Mariners to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Mariners. |

06-11-22 | Rangers v. Lightning OVER 5 | 1-2 | Loss | -145 | 10 h 18 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Rangers/Lightning OVER. I am on the over in the New York Rangers vs Tampa Bay Lightning game on Saturday. The Rangers are down 3-2 in this series for this game in Tampa and they really have their backs against the wall here, needing a win just to even up the series and keep their hopes alive. The previous few games have been really low scoring and defensive games with great goaltending from both teams but I think we are going to see some goals in this game here. The defensive approach hasn't been working for the Rangers lately since they have been losing the previous few games like that with late goals by Tampa after being tied in the game for so long. I think they are going to be aggressive from the start of this game and I expect them to play desperately too, leaving everything out on the ice here giving their best effort. We have seen the Rangers step up this postseason in these situations specifically, they have already faced elimination in 5 different games this postseason and won all of them by scoring 4+ goals in all of them too. I don't think the Lightning are going to let the Rangers walk all over them on home ice though and I expect a lot of push back from the Lightning on home ice here. I think the Lightning will try to score quickly and take a big lead to try and deflate the Rangers here. The Rangers also know that they need to score 1st here and do it quickly because playing from behind in this game will put them in a lot of trouble. I see there being a lot of early goals in this game and I expect both teams to rack them up here as 1 team looks to move on while the other just tries to stay alive here with a win. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Lightning. |

06-11-22 | Reds v. Cardinals OVER 8 | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 4 h 17 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Reds/Cardinals OVER. I am on the over in the Cincinnati Reds vs St Louis Cardinals game on Saturday. The Cardinals won the 1st game of this series 2-0 getting a much needed win but I think this game is going to be a lot more high scoring than the previous game. The Cardinals just got swept by the Rays in their most recent series and I think they are going to be looking to bounce back in this series at home. They haven't been hitting the ball well lately but I think being back in their own ballpark for an extended period of time here will help their offense explode a bit and I think they will try to put up more runs after a close low scoring game like yesterday. The Reds have also looked a lot better lately, they haven't been winning a lot of games in their previous 5 but they have looked a lot better than how they started the year and they are really starting to hit the ball a lot better too. Adam Wainwright (5-4, 2.73 ERA) is up for the Cardinals here and he has been having a good year so far but lately he has been looking shaky in his starts and I think the Reds could get to him here. He had 1 great start in his previous 3 where he only gave up 2 hits and no runs but his other 2 starts he gave up 2 runs and 3 runs which isn't really that bad, but he has also gotten himself into a lot of trouble giving up 9 hits and 10 hits in those 2 starts too. I think the Reds will take advantage here if he gets himself into trouble with players on base and I see the Reds scoring some runs here. Hunter Greene (3-7, 5.40 ERA) is up for the Reds here and he is having a really rough rookie season, giving up a ton of runs in his starts this year. He just had a really good start but also had 2 bad starts right before where he gave up 4+ runs in both and I think he is going to continue to pitch through his growing pains here. I think the Cardinals offense is going to wake up here and I expect a lot of runs from them here. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 7-4 Cardinals. |
|||||||
06-10-22 | Rockies v. Padres -227 | 0-9 | Win | 100 | 10 h 55 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: San Diego Padres. I like the San Diego Padres to win this game against the Colorado Rockies on Friday. The Padres have won 2 games in a row now but they also have wins in 5/6 of their previous 6 games. They have been putting up a lot runs in their games too, even their losses, and I don't see that stopping in this game with how hot their bats have been lately. Their pitching has also been really good in their games lately, not giving up a ton of runs in their games and they have only given up 2 in their 2 most recent games. Joe Musgrove (6-0, 1.64 ERA) is up for the Padres here and he has been great all year with his worst start being a few games where he gave up 2 runs in them. He has been a really reliable pitcher for them this year and I can't see him giving up a ton of runs to the Rockies here. Chad Kuhl (4-2, 3.17 ERA) is up for the Rockies here and he has been good in his 3 most recent starts but he has also had a few bad starts on this West Coast before those good games and I think he is going to get hit here with that Padres offense getting hot. I like the Padres to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Padres. |
|||||||
06-10-22 | Warriors +4 v. Celtics | Top | 107-97 | Win | 100 | 9 h 17 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Golden State Warriors. I like the Golden State Warriors to cover the spread against the Boston Celtics in this game on Friday. The Warriors are losing in this series 2-1 but I think they are going to bounce back here and take a road game back in this series. They didn't look good at all in the 1st half of their previous game and they really lost the game in that half. They made a big comeback in the 3rd quarter, erasing a 10+ point deficit to even take the lead, but once the Celtics got going again in the 4th quarter there was no keeping up for the Warriors. The last thing they want to do now is go back home down 3-1 in the series on the brink of elimination knowing they still need a road win in this series to win the Championship. I expect them to give their best effort in this game to ensure that doesn't happen again and after that 1st quarter in their previous game, I'm expecting them to be a lot better early in this game since their play in that quarter was such a setback for them in the previous game. The Warriors still looked good in half of that game and I expect them to have a better offensive effort here. They didn't produce a lot offense in the previous game since they were missing shots early but I expect them to play with more defensive intensity and make more of those shots early in this game. I can't see the Warriors going down 3-1 in the series here with the players they have on that team and I expect the experience of the warriors to really kick in this game and take control from the start. I'm expecting a very dominant performance from the Warriors in this game and I think they can even win this game to even up the series. I like the Warriors to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 112-102 Warriors. |

06-10-22 | Reds v. Cardinals OVER 8 | 0-2 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 31 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Reds/Cardinals OVER. I am on the over in the Cincinnati Reds vs St Louis Cardinals game on Friday. The Reds have lost 2 games in a row now but they have been getting really hot with their bats lately and they have started to put up a ton of runs in their games after a terrible start to the year. I expect them to continue with their hot bats here and I see them putting up runs on the Cardinals here who have been giving up a lot of runs lately. The Cardinals haven't really been scoring in their games lately but I think the start of a homestand here is the perfect situation for their bats to heat up and the Reds are still a terrible team no matter how well they have been hitting lately so I expect the bats to wake up here for the Cardinals and for them to put up some runs here. Luis Castillo (2-3, 3.55 ERA) is up for the Reds here and he hasn't been bad this year but he has also only had 1 start where he didn't give up a run and I think he is going to give up a few to the Cardinals here. Andre Pallante (1-0, 1.23 ERA) is up for the Cardinals here and he has been great this year, but almost all of his appearances have been as a reliever and this is still his rookie year too. He just had his 1st start in the MLB in his previous appearance and he pitched well with 1 run allowed but he also gave up 4 hits and had 4 walks too. He went against an offense that hasn't been great this year either but I think this Reds team will be able to bring in the runs if he gets himself into trouble here. I see there being runs in this game, I like the over here. T.M. Prediction: 7-4 Cardinals. |
|||||||
06-10-22 | Pirates v. Braves -202 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 8 h 35 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Atlanta Braves. I like the Atlanta Braves to win this game against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday. The Braves have really started to bust out of their shell lately and they have been getting really hot in their games. They have won 8 games in a row now and I don't see that ending in Pittsburgh here. The Braves have been winning their games lately with great pitching since they haven't given up a ton of runs but pitching has always been a strength for them. Now they are smacking the ball too and they have put up a ton of runs in their games as of late. I expect that to continue in this game too since they just put up 13 runs on the A's in their most recent game. Roansy Contreras (1-0, 1.93 ERA) is up for the Pirates here and I expect him to get hit in this game. He is still really new to the league, only in his 2nd year, but he hasn't really had a bad game yet where he pitched terribly. I think that game is coming though and this is not the lineup you want to run into when their bats are this hot lately. I think the Braves are going to put up runs once again here and I see them dominating the Pirates in this game. I like the Braves to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 7-2 Braves. |

06-09-22 | Lightning v. Rangers OVER 5.5 | Top | 3-1 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 45 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Lightning/Rangers OVER. I am on the over in the Tampa Bay Lightning vs New York Rangers game on Thursday. The previous 3 games in this series have stayed under but I think this game is going to over much like the 1st game of this series. The Lightning have awoken in this series and they have finally found their offense again as the goals are rolling in now. I think their offense is going to stay hot here and score some goals in this game as Shesterkin hasn't looked as good in the previous 2 games. The Rangers have looked much better in their home games this series though and that is also true for this entire postseason. They didn't look very good in the 2 previous games but I think they will look a lot better on home ice here and I don't expect them to stand around and watch as the Lightning flip the tables on this series. I think the Rangers are going to give their best effort here and they have been known to score some goals on their home ice this postseason, I expect them to do the same here. Vasilevskiy has looked great in net for the Lightning these 2 most recent games but he has also been a better goalie in home games and he didn't look that great in the 2 road games of this series. I think that Vasilevskiy is going to look a bit shaky here being back in New York with the hostile environment and I expect him to give up some goals here. I think both teams will try to come out fast and score quickly too since this is a very important game to take a good grip on the series so I see both teams starting quickly here and trying to score an early goal to take that important lead. I see this game having lots of goals in it unlike the previous few in the series, I like the over here. T.M. Prediction: 5-3 Lightning. |

06-09-22 | Nationals +129 v. Marlins | 4-7 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 9 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Washington Nationals. I like the Washington Nationals to win this game against the Miami Marlins on Thursday. The Nationals have lost 2 games in a row now, both games being the 1st 2 of this series, but I think they are going to break out of that funk here and get a win avoiding the sweep. The Nats were a huge dog yesterday and they still lost but in a really close game 2-1 and I think they can keep the Marlins from hitting a lot in this game too. Stephen Strasburg (0-0, 0.00 ERA) is up for the Nats here and he hasn't pitched at all this year since he is coming off an injury but he is making his season debut here and I think he is going to pick up where he left off. He has had a really nice career over the years, he only pitched in 5 games last year before his season ended with an injury but he was looking good in those starts and now after having so much time off to recover, I expect him to be better than ever in this start. He hasn't faced the Marlins lineup in years now too and I think that gives him a bit of an advantage here with his pitches in this game. Trevor Rogers (2-5, 5.80 ERA) is up for the Marlins here and he hasn't looked good this year. He has had some really bad starts but a majority of them have been happening lately with his previous 3 starts seeing him give up 13 runs total. He is on a downward spiral right now and I don't see him turning it around in this game with the Nats itching for a win in this series here. I expect him to pitch another bad game here and I see the Nats putting up runs in this game. I like the Nationals to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Nationals. |

06-08-22 | Warriors +3.5 v. Celtics | 100-116 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 29 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Golden State Warriors. I like the Golden State Warriors to cover the spread against the Boston Celtics in this game on Wednesday. The Warriors evened up the series at 1 in the previous game and they looked a lot better in that game after losing the 1st game. They still looked great in game 1 but they let it go in the 4th quarter and that 1 bad quarter buried them but they bounced back in game 2 and I expect to see that Warriors team again here. This was a much more dominant effort by the Warriors here, taking an early lead in the 2nd game but this time they extended it in the 3rd quarter and held on in the 4th to win the game big by 20 points. Now they see themselves as a dog here in this road game and I think they have a chance to even win this game straight up let alone cover the spread here. Tatum was not a big factor in the 1st game and the Celtics still won that game but he had a much bigger presence in the 2nd game and his team went on to lose that game. The Warriors looked great on defense though in game 2 and managed to take everyone else out of the equation in that game. I think they are going to play with that same defensive effort here knowing they need to win a road game and flip the series back in their favor now. The Celtics haven't really looked great in these games so far, they played 1 great quarter in game 1 to win that game but other than that, they have been trailing in these games for a large majority of them. The Warriors have also proven that they can win road games in this postseason while the Celtics have looked good in some of their home games but have somehow been a better team in road games this postseason. I think the Warriors are going to come with their best effort here and take the series lead here. I like the Warriors to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 109-101 Warriors. |

06-08-22 | Mariners +1.5 v. Astros | 6-3 | Win | 100 | 8 h 8 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Seattle Mariners +1.5. I like the Seattle Mariners runline against the Houston Astros in this game on Wednesday. The Mariners have looked pretty good in their games lately and it is hard to step in front of them when their bats get hot. It all started when they won their home series against the Astros over a week ago and they haven't lost another series since before that, winning 3 series in a row now and going for another series win here tonight. They have been gutting out ways to win lately, whether it be with their pitching some nights and their hitting on other nights, but the Astros offense is cold right now and this is a good time for the Mariners to take advantage of that. Logan Gilbert (5-2, 2.22 ERA) is up for the Mariners here and he has been their ace this year, rarely making a bad start and he hasn't given up a lot of runs in any starts this year either. He has been pitching really well lately and he has been going deep into their games too, I think he can continue that here and keep this Astros offense cold like they have been lately. The Astros have Jose Urquidy (5-2, 4.76 ERA) in this game and he hasn't looked great all year but he has really been going downhill as of late. He just gave up 3 runs in his most recent start but he has also been giving up 3+ runs in 3/4 of his 4 previous starts. I think he will continue that here and I expect the Mariners to put up some runs on him early while Gilbert keeps them in this game. I think this is a game that the Mariners can even win but I like the Mariners runline in this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Mariners. |

06-08-22 | Blue Jays v. Royals OVER 9 | 4-8 | Win | 106 | 4 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Blue Jays/Royals OVER. I am on the over in the Toronto Blue Jays vs Kansas City Royals game on Wednesday. The Blue Jays have really woken up on offense lately and I think that is going to continue for them here now that they are getting hot. They just blanked the Royals in 2 games in a row, putting up 7+ runs in both games but with no score from the Royals in either game. I don't expect them to blank them all 3 games here and I expect to see the Royals offense put up some runs in this game to balance out from their previous 2 performances which were just terrible. They are in their own ballpark too and Yusei Kikuchi (2-2, 3.91 ERA) is up for the Blue Jays in this game. Kikuchi just had a really bad start in his previous game and he was having major issues at the beginning of the year, being a big reason why the Blue Jays were losing so many games early despite being so hot with their offense. I think the Royals are going to be trying hard here to get hits and put up runs after getting blanked twice in a row and I think they will be able to put up those runs on Kikuchi here with how he has performed this year. Brady Singer (2-1, 4.15 ERA) is up for the Royals here and he was having a great year pitching really well in his starts but lately he has looked shaky on the bump and his 2 most recent starts were his worst of the year. He has given up 10 runs in his previous 2 starts and 7 of those came in his most recent start alone. The Blue Jays are finally getting hot on offense now with 6+ runs in 4 games in a row now and I expect them to put up their runs on Singer today. I see both starters having bad games here and I expect the hitters to bail each team out of this game. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 8-5 Blue Jays. |

06-07-22 | Rangers v. Lightning OVER 5.5 | 1-4 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 26 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Rangers/Lightning OVER. I am on the over in the New York Rangers vs Tampa Bay Lightning game on Tuesday. The previous 2 games in this series have been lower scoring affairs and I was on that under in the most recent game but now I'm all over this over for this game 4. The Rangers have looked like a pretty dominant team in this series and they have proved that they can matchup against this Lightning team and score goals on them. They even jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the previous game before blowing it but I expect them to put in a better effort here since they now know they need to score more than 2 goals to beat the Bolts which is something they can definitely do here. The Lightning also have looked a lot better in the games lately too and they have been ramping up more in each game. I expect them to get off to a strong start here and I see this game having some early goals in it. Both teams have done a great job on defense so far but I expect that to break down a bit as the series goes on and I can see the scoring open up in this game if there are some early goals scored here which I expect. The Lightning also peppered Shesterkin with shots in the previous game and he played great in that game but I don't think he can do that again if he gets 50 shots on him. I think the Lightning can smell the blood in the water and I expect them to give their best effort on home ice here to score some goals and try to tie this series up. I don't see the Rangers giving up here either with how they have played in every game of this series so I expect them to get some goals too. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Lightning. |

06-07-22 | Mariners v. Astros -1.5 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 20 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Houston Astros -1.5. I like the Houston Astros runline against the Seattle Mariners in this game on Tuesday. The Astros lost the 1st game of their series with the Mariners yesterday but I expect them to bounce back here and get back to their winning ways. They had a great effort early in that game tying it up 4-4 after going down 4-1 in the 2nd inning but then the offense dried up after that and they went on to lose 7-4. This series is in their own ballpark though and I expect a big bounce back from their offense here, especially with this pitching matchup tonight. Chris Flexen (2-6, 4.55 ERA) is up for the Mariners here and he has looked really bad this year, consistently pitching badly in the games he has started. He has started in 10+ games this year and he hasn't had 1 start yet where he wasn't charged with an earned run. Not only has he been giving up runs in every start, but a majority of his starts sees him giving up 3+ runs and that is going to get them into trouble here against a good hitting and angry Astros team. Justin Verlander (6-2, 2.23 ERA) is up for the Astros here and he has looked great all year. He had 1 bad start the other week but other than that 1 bad start, he has looked great and hasn't been giving up many runs in a majority of his starts. He is what this team needs after giving up 7 runs yesterday and Verlander will also be looking to bounce back here too since his 1 bad start this year was against the Mariners in Seattle. Now being back in their home ballpark, I expect Verlander to pitch a great game while the lineup backs him up with run support here. I like the Astros runline in this game. T.M.

06-06-22 | Red Sox v. Angels -113 | 1-0 | Loss | -113 | 11 h 8 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: LA Angels. I like the LA Angels to win this game against the Boston Red Sox on Monday. The Angels are in the middle of a huge slump, losing 11 games in a row and they haven't looked all that great during this time but this team is a lot better than the way they have been playing and I think they are going to bounce back here. They finally got their offense rolling yesterday when they put up 7 runs on the Phillies, but they blew a 5 run lead in that game and went on to lose it late with a bullpen implosion. They showed signs of life though and I think being back in their ballpark for this series, they are going to play much better and break out of their funk here. The Red Sox have won 4 games in a row now and they just swept their series against the A's over the weekend but they have been really up and down this year and I expect the Angels to get a much needed win here. Noah Syndergaard (4-3, 4.02 ERA) is up for the Angels here and he had a great start to the year but has looked shaky in his starts lately. He has given up 10 runs in his previous 3 starts but I expect him to bounce back here and get back to the way he was pitching to start the year. Michael Wacha (3-1, 2.43 ERA) is up for the Red Sox here and he has looked great this year but lately he has also looked shaky and I think he has been playing a bit better than he actually is so far. I see him getting hit here by an offense that is starting to wake up and I expect the Angels to get a win after a long slump here. I like the Angels to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Angels. |

06-06-22 | Avalanche v. Oilers +118 | 6-5 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 41 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Edmonton Oilers. I like the Edmonton Oilers to win this game against the Colorado Avalanche on Monday. The Oilers are now down 3-0 in the series and they are on the brink of elimination here. I think they are going to be desperate in this game and I expect them to leave everything out on the ice tonight to win this game and keep their cup hopes alive still. This is a last stand for the Oilers on home ice here and this is a game they have to win. They looked pretty good for the 1st bit of the game in their previous game but Mike Smith gave up some bad goals, the winning goal really late in that game too, and that led to their demise in that game. I think the Oilers are going to bounce back here though and I'd be shocked if the Oilers get swept here in the Western Conference finals. The Avs still have Francouz in net here and I'm not convinced he is as good as he has been playing. The Oilers have also struggled to get good shots off at him but I expect them to pepper him tonight facing elimination here and I expect them to throw pucks at the net all night. The Oilers didn't look terrible in any of these games, they just had some unfortunate situations with their goaltending. In the 1st game they scored a ton of goals on the Avs in a road game but had a terrible performance from Smith. In the 2nd game they couldn't score but their defensive effort was much better and they lost that game in a span of 3 minutes where Smith collapsed but other than that he looked good in that game. And then in the 3rd game they had a lead and all around played a really good game but again Smith let in a bad goal late that changed the landscape of that game. Smith is still a veteran goalie though with experience and a great career behind him, I expect him to step up and bounce back here since he is due for a good game. I think the Oilers are also going to put it all together here for a much better performance and I expect them to win this home game and stay alive. I like the Oilers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Oilers. |

06-06-22 | Mariners v. Astros -154 | 7-4 | Loss | -154 | 10 h 40 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Houston Astros. I like the Houston Astros to win this game against the Seattle Mariners on Monday. The Astros lost 1 game to the Royals over the weekend but they have been on a roll lately and that was their only loss in their previous 7 games. They have looked really good and they really racked up the runs in those 2 games they won against the Royals. The Astros have been putting up a ton of runs and I think they are going to be out for their revenge here. The Mariners just won a series in their ballpark against the Astros less than 2 weeks ago and I think the Astros are going to try and get those wins back here in their ballpark now. The Astros did play a home series against the Mariners earlier this year and they swept the Mariners then so I expect the Mariners to struggle in this road series again since they have been struggling in road games all year too. Robbie Ray (4-6, 4.93 ERA) is up for the Mariners here and he hasn't looked good this year. He has had some really bad starts this year but lately he has looked terrible, giving up 3+ runs in 4 starts in a row now and that has been consistent over his previous 7 starts too. He has been struggling in every start and I expect this game to be no different for him, especially with the bats so hot for the Astros now. Cristian Javier (3-2, 2.41 ERA) is up for the Astros here and he has looked great this year. He has only had 1 bad start this year while all his other starts saw him only giving up 1 or no runs in his starts, with the odd game where he gave up 2. I think he has looked great all year and I expect him to continue pitching well here. I think the Astros are going to continue to roll here. I like the Astros to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-2 Astros. |

06-05-22 | Celtics v. Warriors -4 | Top | 88-107 | Win | 100 | 10 h 14 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Golden State Warriors. I like the Golden State Warriors to cover the spread against the Boston Celtics in this game on Sunday. The Warriors are down 1-0 in this series after losing their 1st home game of this postseason. I still think they looked really good for a majority of that game though, and they were dominating the Celtics up to the 4th quarter. They had a 12 point lead going in and came out with a 12 point loss but other than that 1 bad quarter where they blew the game and let it get away from them, I still think they looked great and were the better team. I expect them to bounce back with a much better effort in this game and I expect to see them even up the series at 1 here. The Celtics did look really good in that game too but Tatum didn't have a good game at all, missing a lot of his shots but I also think the Warriors gave a good defensive effort to shut him down in that game and I expect to see the same thing here tonight. I can't see the Warriors going down 2-0 on their own court here and having to go back to Boston in a huge hole. Some of the Warriors players have even came out and said that they weren't fully focused in that game but I expect their focus to be on this game and I don't see the Warriors leaving this game without a win. The Warriors have been dominant this whole postseason losing their only home game in the previous game but the Warriors didn't play in a single 7 game series this postseason either, unlike the Celtics who have to play 7 games in their previous 2 series. I think that fatigue is going to catch up to them and I'm not going to count the Warriors out here after 1 bad quarter on their own court. This is a bounce back game for the Warriors here, I like the Warriors to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 116-106 Warriors. |

06-05-22 | Rangers v. Lightning UNDER 5.5 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 5 h 23 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Rangers/Lightning UNDER. I am on the under in the New York Rangers vs Tampa Bay Lightning game on Sunday. The Lightning are down 2-0 in this series but after a very high scoring affair in game 1, they really calmed down in the 2nd game with that game going under. The Rangers won the most recent game 3-2 but they were up 3-1 and that 2nd goal for the Lightning was a late goal scored with the goalie pulled. I think this is going to be another low scoring affair like the previous game and I expect to see a great defensive effort from both teams here. The Rangers have already proved to the Lightning that goals are going to be tough to come by between their great defensive effort and their great goaltending. I think the Lightning are going to continue playing with their great defensive effort since any goals allowed in this game could end up being the game winner and neither team can really afford to be giving up tons of goals. The Rangers have been scoring a lot lately too but those games were on home ice and I expect their offense to not be as strong in this road game. I also think Vasilevskiy is going to play better on home ice here and I expect him to shut the door on the Rangers in this game. The Lightning know they aren't going to win this game with a strong offensive effort due to that Rangers defense and Shesterkin on the other side so they need to find another way to defend their leads and I expect this to be a low scoring game. I like the under here. T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Lightning. |

06-05-22 | Diamondbacks -145 v. Pirates | 0-3 | Loss | -145 | 4 h 47 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Arizona Diamondbacks. I like the Arizona Diamondbacks to win this game against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday. These 2 have split the series so far but this game is to decide a series winner here and I think the D-Backs are going to win this game and take the series here. The D-Backs haven't looked great lately but they are still winning games and not losing a ton, I expect them to get this win since they have been putting up a ton of runs in their games lately. The Pirates are in the same boat as the D-Backs but after a sweep of the Dodgers in their previous series, they have won 4/5 of their previous 5 games now. They have been really hot and are on a roll here but I don't think the Pirates are that great and I expect them to start regressing a bit here. Zac Gallen (4-0, 2.32 ERA) is up for the D-Backs here and he has been great all year with only 1 bad start under his belt. He gave up 6 runs against the Royals just a few weeks ago but other than that 1 bad start, he has only had 1 other start where he gave up 2 runs and hasn't given up more than 0 or 1 runs in any other start this year. Gallen has looked great and I think he is going to keep the Pirates from scoring here, and the Pirates haven't been great on offense lately either. Zach Thompson (2-4, 5.18 ERA) is up for the Pirates here and he hasn't looked that great this year. Thompson had a terrible start to the season giving up a ton of runs in his 1st 4 starts. He started to pitch better after that with 3 great starts in a row but now he has been looking shaky again in his 2 most recent starts. The D-Backs have been hitting the ball well all year and scoring a ton of runs in their games, even if they do lose that game. I think the D-Backs are going to beat up on him here. I like the Diamondbacks to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Diamondbacks. |

06-04-22 | Braves -160 v. Rockies | 6-2 | Win | 100 | 12 h 26 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Atlanta Braves. I like the Atlanta Braves to win this game against the Colorado Rockies on Saturday. The Braves have won 3 games in a row now and they have looked really good in these games lately. They have been putting up a lot of runs after their offense was really cold in the 1st month but they have been getting hot now and their pitching has also been there to back them up in these games too. The Rockies have been better in their home games this year but they haven't looked good lately and I think they are going to lose here again to a team that is really getting hot and back into World Series form like the defending champions that they are. Spencer Strider (1-2, 2.83 ERA) is up for the Braves here and he just pitched in his 1st start of the year in his most recent game, but he has made plenty of appearances out of the bullpen this year. He has looked really good in his appearances as a reliever, giving up no more than 2 runs just 1 time and pitching anywhere from 1-4 innings in his games played. His most recent appearance wasn't great but that was his 1st start and I think he is going to bounce back with a better performance here. This game is at Coors Field so there are going to be runs scored here but I expect his team to back him up with the way they have been hitting and scoring lately. Kyle Freeland (1-5, 4.96 ERA) is up for the Rockies here and he hasn't looked great this year with multiple starts where he has given up 5+ runs in the game. He has looked really bad in all 4 of his most recent starts too, and i think this is going to be another bad game for him in this big ballpark with a hot hitting team in town. I expect the Braves to continue on their run here and win this game. I like the Braves to win here. T.M. Prediction: 7-3 Braves. |

06-04-22 | Avalanche v. Oilers +117 | Top | 4-2 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 28 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Edmonton Oilers. I like the Edmonton Oilers to win this game against the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday. The Avalanche have a 2-0 series lead here and they looked really good in the 1st 2 games but both were on home ice for them and i think the Oilers can get 1 back here and win this game on home ice. The Oilers looked terrible in the previous game and they didn't even score a goal after a great 1st game where they lost but scored 6 goals and were in that game right until the very end since they managed to come back. That team was nowhere to be found in their most recent game though but I think they are going to step up here and give a better effort tonight. They didn't even look all that bad in the previous game but they blew the game in about a 3 minute span, but they were keeping up and playing very well in the game before that. This is still a strong offensive team that has been putting pucks in the net like no tomorrow in this postseason. The Avalanche are also missing their starting goalie Kuemper here and Francouz is really not that great. He shut the Oilers out in the previous game but the Avalanche looked great on defense in that game and the Oilers didn't really get any good chances on him and the shots they took weren't challenging him at all. I think this game will be different on home ice for them and i expect them to come out more aggressive here, trying to challenge Francouz early here and I don't expect him to hold up in net this time. I think this is a bounce back game for the Oilers here and I like the Oilers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Edmonton Oilers. |

06-04-22 | Diamondbacks v. Pirates -126 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 7 h 22 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Pittsburgh Pirates. I like the Pittsburgh Pirates to win this game against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday. The Pirates have looked really good in their games lately and I think they are going to continue what they have been doing here. The Pirates have won 2/3 of their previous 3 series now, with 1 series win against the Rockies and 1 series sweep against the Dodgers in LA in their most recent series. They only took 1 game against the Padres in their series between those 2 series they won but they still looked good in every game and their 2 losses were by both really close games, losing 1 game by 1 run and the other by 2 runs. The D-Backs have also looked good lately winning 3/4 of their previous 4 games but their offense has been really up and down too and I think their bats are going to go cold again here. Roansy Contreras (1-0, 2.55 ERA) is up for the Pirates here and he has looked good in all of his games played in this year. He normally doesn't start in games but he has started in his 2 most recent appearances and he went 5 innings in both while giving up no more than 2 runs in either game. He has also had some good performances out of the bullpen this year and I think he is going to continue pitching well here. Zach Davies (2-3, 4.84 ERA) is up for the D-Backs here and he hasn't looked great this year. His team isn't finding a lot of success with him on the bump this year and lately he has been giving up a lot of runs in all of his starts over his previous 4. The Pirates have looked good on offense lately and they have a lot of confidence here from their success as of late. I think they are going to put up runs on the D-Backs here and I expect them to win this game. I like the Pirates here. T.M. Selection: 5-2 Pirates. |

06-03-22 | Mets v. Dodgers -145 | Top | 1-6 | Win | 100 | 11 h 46 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: LA Dodgers. I like the LA Dodgers to win this game against the New York Mets on Friday. The Dodgers won the 1st game of this series yesterday 2-0 over the Mets after losing 3 games in a row before that. They didn't just lose 3 games in a row though, they lost an entire 3 game series in their own ballpark to the Pirates who have been terrible this year. I think that sweeping really lit a fire under them and I expect them to come out angry here, putting up some runs on the Mets to get a series win here and bounce back. The Mets just won 6 games in a row before losing yesterday and I think they are going to slip into a bit of a slump here. They were putting up a lot of runs in their ballpark but ended off their previous series with a win where they put up 5 runs, and then they failed to score at all in their 1st game against the Dodgers yesterday. Chris Bassitt (4-2, 3.66 ERA) is up for the Mets here and he has had some really good starts this year, but he has also had some really bad starts and when he does he tends to give up a ton of runs in those games. He just had a really good start where he only gave up 1 run in his most recent start but right before that, he had a start where he gave up 8 runs in less than 5 innings and even gave up 4 runs in his start before that really bad game. Bassitt can unravel in his starts at any moment and I think the Dodgers starter here has been more consistent in his starts this year. Tyler Andersen (6-0, 2.90 ERA) is up for the Dodgers here and he has been great this year. He had 1 bad start this year where he gave up 7 runs in 6 innings and hasn't had a start where he gave up more than 2 runs in the game other than that 1. Bassitt has been a lot more up and down than Andersen has been and I think this is a good bounce back for the Dodgers after a bad series. I like the Dodgers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-1 Dodgers. |

06-03-22 | Lightning -127 v. Rangers | 2-3 | Loss | -127 | 9 h 52 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Tampa Bay Lightning. I like the Tampa Bay Lightning to win this game against the New York Rangers on Friday. The Lightning are down 1-0 in this series after a 6-2 loss in the 1st game but I think they are going to bounce back here. They didn't look great in their previous game and were a bit rusty after the long layoff but I think they will be more prepared for this game after playing now and I expect them to get back in their groove here. That loss ended a 6 game run for the Lightning and I think they are going to come out with more fire in this game. The chants by the fans in MSG were getting brutal in that game and I think they just angered the Lightning, I expect them to get after the Rangers right away here. Vasilevskiy had a bad game but he has a very good record after a loss in the playoffs and I expect him to bounce back with a better performance too. The Rangers have been hot lately with 3 wins in a row but this is still a young team and I don't think they are going to be able to sustain that type of play in this series. I expect the Rangers to start breaking down in this game and I see the experience from the Lightning kicking in here to tie this up going back home. The Lightning are the B2B defending champions and they know they need a road win here to advance and flip the home advantage here. I expect them to get that win here and put the pressure on the Rangers going back to Tampa. I like the Lightning to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Lightning. |

06-03-22 | Padres v. Brewers -153 | 7-0 | Loss | -153 | 9 h 47 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Milwaukee Brewers. I like the Milwaukee Brewers to win this game against the San Diego Padres on Friday. The Brewers just took the 1st game of this series with a close win by 1 run but I think they are going to get another win over the Padres in their ballpark here. The Brewers have only lost 2 of their previous 7 games and they have been putting up the runs in those games too, even in their losses. I think they are going to put some runs up here and I expect the Padres to have another bad offensive game here since their bats have been really cold lately. Corbin Burnes (3-2, 1.95 ERA) is up for the Brewers here and he has been great all year with only 1 bad game where he gave up 4 runs in 6 innings, and that was his worst start of the year. He has been great in all of his other starts and I think he is going to have another great start here. The Padres have been struggling to put up runs lately and I think with Burnes on the bump here, it's only going to make the Padres job harder here to score. Joe Musgrove (5-0, 1.86 ERA) is up for the Padres here and he has also been great this year, being awarded with 5 wins and no losses yet but I think that run is coming to an end here. He has been so good this year that his worst start was a few starts where he was only charged with 2 earned runs but I don't think that is going to be sustainable for much longer and I expect him to have a bad start sooner or later. The Brewers have been hitting well and putting up the runs lately, I think they can get to Musgrove here. I like the Brewers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Brewers. |

06-02-22 | Celtics v. Warriors -3.5 | Top | 120-108 | Loss | -110 | 34 h 12 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Golden State Warriors. I like the Golden State Warriors to cover the spread against the Boston Celtics in this game on Thursday. The Warriors have looked great in this postseason, they have won 2/3 of their series in 5 games and the other in 6 games. The Celtics have looked really good in some games this postseason too but there has also been other games that they haven't looked good at all in, getting blown out by 10+ points in those games and they have had 2/3 of their series go 7 games too. I think the fatigue is going to start settling in for the Celtics a bit and I expect the Warriors to really turn on the jets here with the championship being so close now. The Warriors have looked really good in their home games too, they haven't lost a home game in this postseason at all yet. I expect that to be the same here and with such a low spread here, I expect this game to be dominated by the Warriors on their home floor right from the start. The Warriors have even won a majority of their home games in this postseason by 10+ points and they have looked really good with both their offensive and defensive effort in their games. The Celtics haven't looked great in game 1's either, they won their 1st game in the 1st round when they swept the Nets but lost both game 1's against the Bucks and the Heat in their 2 previous rounds. I think the Warriors just have better players here and they were dominating the NBA all throughout the regular season while still missing Klay in their starting rotation. I think their team is a lot deeper too and I expect them to set the tone in this series with a huge win on their home court here. I like the Warriors to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 111-101 Warriors. |

06-02-22 | Oilers +1.5 v. Avalanche | 0-4 | Loss | -145 | 11 h 44 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Edmonton Oilers +1.5. I like the Edmonton Oilers puckline against the Colorado Avalanche in this game on Thursday. The Avalanche took the 1st game of this series in an 8-6 win but the goaltending was terrible on both sides and the Oilers still looked great on offense. They got off to a quick start in that game but the Avalanche started to dominate shortly after and eventually took a 7-3 lead in the game. The Oilers never quit though and they put a great effort in that game still, scoring 3 goals unanswered after that to make it a 7-6 game with a few minutes left to play. The Avalanche would go on to score an empty net goal to win the game 8-6 but almost blowing that 4 goal lead is not the best look for them and I expect the oilers to tighten up with their defensive effort here. I also think Mike Smith will bounce back in this game too, he had a terrible game in their 1st of their series against the Flames similar to this game, losing that game 9-6 but the whole team bounced back after that to win 4 games in a row and eliminate the Flames. I think Smith will play better here and I expect the Oilers to play better on defense too. Their offense is clearly still hot and Kuemper even left the previous game with an injury so he is not in the best condition. Kuemper already suffered an eye injury earlier this postseason and now he is dealing with an upper body injury, whether that is the eye injury or he is dealing with something else entirely now, that can't be good for the Avs here and I have no confidence in their backup Francouz to stand on his head for an entire game against this hot offense. I think this is a big bounce back game for the Oilers here. I like the Oilers puckline in this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Oilers. |

06-02-22 | White Sox v. Blue Jays -1.5 | 3-8 | Win | 105 | 6 h 41 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Toronto Blue Jays -1.5. I like the Toronto Blue Jays runline against the Chicago White Sox in this game on Thursday. The Blue Jays have looked great in their games lately and they are really hot on a big run at the moment. They have won 7 games in a row now and they are going for a B2B series sweep here with a win in this game. The Blue Jays have looked great in their home games this year and they won yesterday's game 7-3 with the White Sox putting their best pitcher in their starting rotation on the bump. Johnny Cueto (0-1, 2.41 ERA) is up for the White Sox in this game now and he has been good this year but with only 3 starts under his belt this year, I don't think he is going to continue pitching the way he has been. Cueto pitched great in his 1st 2 starts of the year not giving up a run at all, but he gave up 5 runs in his most recent start and I think he is going to start regressing now. The Blue Jays have Alek Manoah (5-1, 1.77 ERA) up for them here and he has been the Blue Jays ace all year. He hasn't really had a bad start this year in 9 starts and the most runs he gave up in a single game was 3 on 2 occasions, and has looked great other than those games. His consistency has been a big part of the Blue Jays success this year and I think he is going to continue the way he has been pitching lately. The offense has also been really hot for the Blue Jays and I think they are going to stay hot on this home stand. I like the Blue Jays runline here to get the sweep in this series. T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Blue Jays. |

06-01-22 | Lightning -120 v. Rangers | 2-6 | Loss | -120 | 9 h 11 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Tampa Bay Lightning. I like the Tampa Bay Lightning to win this game against the New York Rangers on Wednesday. The Lightning have won 6 games in a row now and they just swept the Panthers in their previous series. They have had more than 10 days off to rest now and I think they are going to be fresh for this game and ready to get after the Rangers here. The Lightning haven't had home advantage in any of their series so far and they are the defending B2B champions of the NHL too so I don't expect this being a road game to be much of a factor for them. They have won 4/6 of their road games in this postseason and I think they will continue to find success here. The Rangers have looked good in their home games lately and their defensive effort has been even better there but they are facing the B2B defending champions now and I think that experience is going to come into play here. This will also be the toughest goalkeeper that the Rangers will have faced since Vasilevskiy is the best in the world and I expect the Lightning's strong offense to solve Shesterkin and score some goals here. The Lightning know they need to flip the home advantage in this series and I expect they will come out strong here to catch the Rangers early and put the onus on them to win another road game to win this series. I like the Lightning to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Lightning. |

06-01-22 | Lightning v. Rangers OVER 5.5 | 2-6 | Win | 110 | 9 h 10 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Lightning/Rangers OVER. I am on the over in the Tampa Bay Lightning vs New York Rangers game on Wednesday. The Lightning haven't been involved in many high scoring affairs lately with a pretty low scoring series against the Panthers but I think this game is going to go against that narrative as of late. The Rangers have looked a lot better in their home games this year and I think they are going to put up a good effort in this game since they have looked good lately. They have been scoring a lot more in their home games in this postseason and I think their offense will be more active in this game. They have gone to 7 games in both series they have played in though and I think fatigue will be catching up to them here too. I think that will affect their defensive effort more and Shesterkin, who has been standing on his head for so long now, is not going to hold up forever when he has already had a few bad games in this postseason. I think the Lightning offense is going to get to him here for some goals and I expect them to be well rested for this game and come out with a ton of energy. I think both teams will get on the board for some goals here but I also think that the Lightning are going to use this game to make a statement in New York and I expect them to dominate with a great offensive effort all night. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Lightning. |

05-31-22 | Oilers +1.5 v. Avalanche | 6-8 | Loss | -150 | 9 h 17 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Edmonton Oilers +1.5. I like the Edmonton Oilers puckline in this game against the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday. The Oilers have been really hot lately, they have won 4 games in a row now and 6/7 of their previous 7 games. I think they are going to continue this big run they are on with another win here but I'm going to be on the puckline in case they do lose because I think it will be either a close loss for them or complete Oilers domination here. They lost the 1st game of their previous series to the Flames but won 4 in a row after to win that series and 3/4 of those wins were by 2+ goals. Even in their loss they looked great, scoring 6 goals in that game and only lost because of a really bad night for their goalkeeping. The Oilers are also scoring a ton of goals in their games lately with 4+ goals in 5 games in a row now. They are on a roll and I don't think that is going to stop here with how good they have looked lately. The Avalanche won their previous series in 6 games but they didn't always look good in their games and they even struggled to win some of the games they came out on top of. They didn't even look that good in their home games either, losing 2/3 of their home games in the previous series. The only home game they won in that series was in game 1 and the Avs had to win that game in OT. They lost the 2nd game 4-1 on home ice and then followed up with another loss in their next home game after that, losing 5-4 in OT after blowing a 3-1 lead very late in the 3rd period and then another 4-3 lead after that with less than 2 minutes left. Even in their most recent game in St Louis, they won 3-2 but were trailing 2-1 in that game until they tied it in the 3rd period and they never even led in that game until scoring with 4 seconds left to shock the Blues and send them home when everyone though that would be headed to OT. I think the Avs have started to look shaky in their games lately and the Oilers have been really hot. I like the Oilers puckline in this game. T.M. Selection: 5-3 Oilers. |

05-31-22 | Brewers -124 v. Cubs | 7-8 | Loss | -124 | 9 h 6 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Milwaukee Brewers. I like the Milwaukee Brewers to win this game against the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday. The Brewers have won 3 games in a row now and have looked good in their games, even winning a double header yesterday. They have been putting up a lot of runs in their games too but their pitching has also been great since they have given up 1 run or less in 2/3 of their previous 3 games. The Cubs have lost 3 games in a row now and I think they are going to continue their run of losses here. Eric Lauer (5-1, 2.31 ERA) is up for the Brewers and he has looked great in his starts this year. He has only given up more than 3 runs in 2 starts this year and has been pitching well in all of his other starts. Justin Steele (1-5, 5.40 ERA) is up for the Cubs here and he is fairly new to the league with this being his 2nd year in the MLB but he hasn't looked that great in his starts either. He just gave up 7 runs in his most recent start and has been giving up quite a bit of runs in a majority of his starts this year too. The Brewers have been putting up runs in their games lately and I think they are going to continue to do so here. The Cubs haven't been great and these are the kinds of series that the Brewers are looking to win and spread the gap in their division. I like the Brewers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Brewers. |

05-31-22 | Royals v. Guardians OVER 9 | 3-8 | Win | 100 | 7 h 11 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Royals/Guardians OVER. I am on the over in the Kansas City Royals vs Cleveland Guardians game on Tuesday. The 1st game of this series yesterday was a high scoring affair with 10 total runs in it but I think this game is going to be very similar. The Royals only put up 3 runs in both of their 2 most recent games but they have been giving up a ton of runs in those games and just played a pretty good series against the Twins, with 4 games in a row seeing 10+ runs total now. The Royals were hitting well and getting players on base too so they had plenty of scoring chances in that game and I expect it to be the same here but I think they will capitalize and bring the runs in this time. The Guardians put up 7 runs after a bad performance from their offense on Sunday but they were putting up runs in their previous series and I expect this game to have some runs too. Daniel Lynch (2-3, 3.92 ERA) is up for the Royals here and he is fairly new to the league with this being his 2nd season in the MLB but he has not found a lot of success in a lot of his starts so far. He has pitched well in a few starts this year but lately he has looked shaky and has been giving up a lot of runs. Cal Quantrill (1-3, 3.42 ERA) is up for the Guardians here and he hasn't looked that great either this year. He hasn't been pitching terribly but he also hasn't had a start this year where he didn't give up a run and he's been giving up a few runs in his starts lately. I expect to see a high scoring affair here, I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 7-6 Guardians. |

05-30-22 | Rangers v. Hurricanes -142 | 6-2 | Loss | -142 | 14 h 36 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Carolina Hurricanes. I like the Carolina Hurricanes to win this game against the New York Rangers on Monday. This is game 7 of the series and I think the Hurricanes are going to be the team to advance here. They have looked really good in their home games lately, they are 7-0 in their home games in this postseason. They haven't been able to win any road games in this postseason yet but they have been dominant on home ice and I expect this game to be no different than their other home games. The Hurricanes haven't been scoring a lot of goals in this series either but they have scored more goals in their home games than in their road games and I expect their offense to show up here and get the job done. Shesterkin has looked really good in a lot of their games but all year he has been a better goalie in home games than in road games and he has already shown that he can collapse in road games in their previous series against the Penguins. The Rangers were down 3-1 in their previous series and they won 3 games in a row to advance to this round but they can't keep playing on the brink of elimination and I think it is going to catch up to them here. I expect this to be the end of the line for the Rangers and I see the Hurricanes continuing their home dominance in this postseason with another win here to advance to the next round. I like the Hurricanes to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Hurricanes. |

05-30-22 | Braves -110 v. Diamondbacks | 2-6 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 35 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Atlanta Braves. I like the Atlanta Braves to win this game against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Monday. The Braves just put up a series win against the Marlins after splitting their series before that, but they have still looked really good in their games lately and haven't lost a series in their previous 4. They have been putting up a lot more runs lately and I think they are going to continue that here against the D-Backs who I think have been overachieving lately and are due for some regression. The Diamondbacks looked really good in a majority of their games over the last 2 weeks but they finally just got swept by the Dodgers in a 4 game series and I expect them to start coming back down to Earth a bit since their team is not really as good as they were playing. Zac Gallen (3-0, 2.22 ERA) is up for the Diamondbacks here and he has looked great all year but he finally looked shaky in his most recent start, giving up 6 runs in 5 innings and against the Royals too who have a really bad team this year and are at the bottom of their division. Now that Gallen is starting to show some cracks in his armor, I think he is going to get touched again here for some runs and he will be facing a much tougher lineup than the Royals too. The Braves also started off really slow this year and have started to get hot now and are putting up a lot of runs in their games. Spencer Strider (1-1, 2.22 ERA) is up for the Braves here and this will be his 1st start of the year but he has already played many games this year as a reliever and even went 3+ innings in a lot of those games. He hasn't had a bad game yet and I don't think he is going to be in this game long enough to do damage to his own team either. I expect a good pitching effort from the Braves here and a great offensive effort too. I like the Braves to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 6-2 Braves. |
|||||||
05-30-22 | Padres +100 v. Cardinals | 3-6 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 41 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: San Diego Padres. I like the San Diego padres to win this game against the St Louis Cardinals on Monday. The Padres looked a lot better in their previous series with a series win over the Pirates and I think they are going to continue to get hot here with another win in this game. The Cardinals haven't looked bad either in their games lately but they just split their 2 most recent series and they lost their most recent game 8-0 to the Brewers in their own ballpark, their offense going completely cold in that game. Nick Martinez (2-2, 3.86 ERA) is up for the Padres here and was not pitching well at the beginning of the year but he has been pitching a lot better in his starts lately and I think he is going to continue pitching well here since he has only had 1 game in his previous 6 starts where he gave up more than 2 runs. Packy Naughton (0-1, 2.89 ERA) is up for the Cardinals here and he has had made a few appearances in games already this year, but he has only made 1 start and he gave up 3 runs in 3 innings in that start, which was also the longest number of innings he has pitched in a game all year. He is not going to offer the Cardinals a lot of innings to pitch in this game and this will end up being a bullpen game for them which, after what the Brewers did to their bullpen yesterday, it will be tough for them to find some good arms to use for this game. The padres have been pretty consistent with their scoring lately while the Cardinals have been up and down and I think the Padres will put up runs here while Martinez stays sharp here. I like the Padres to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Padres. |

05-29-22 | Celtics v. Heat +2.5 | 100-96 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 18 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Miami Heat. I like the Miami Heat to cover the spread in this game against the Boston Celtics on Sunday. The Heat really showed up in Boston in the previous game, they were on the brink of elimination and they managed to beat the Celtics by 8 points and send this to a game 7. The previous 3 games in this series have been really defensive and I think this will be the same but I expect the Heat to come with that same defensive effort that won them the previous game. Jimmy Butler had a huge influence on the offense in that game, putting up 47 points himself and even Kyle Lowry got himself involved in the scoring a lot more than he has been doing in this series. I expect them to continue playing great defense in this game like they have been all series but I also expect Butler and Lowry to have big games again and help their team put up the points to win this game. The Heat are on their home court here and they have looked great in home games all year, I don't think they are going to play any differently here. Tatum, Brown, and even Derrick White all had 20+ points for the Celtics in that previous game but their offensive effort wasn't enough to beat the Heat and I expect that same effort from the Heat to shut down these guys even more now that they are on their home court here. The Heat finished 1st place in the East and they were one of the best home teams all year, they aren't going to just go away easily in this game. I think this is a game the Heat can win, I like the Heat to cover the spread here. T.M. Prediction: 99-94 Heat. |

05-29-22 | Brewers -130 v. Cardinals | Top | 8-0 | Win | 100 | 6 h 53 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Milwaukee Brewers. I like the Milwaukee Brewers to win this game against the St Louis Cardinals on Sunday. The Brewers were looking really good in their games before coming into this series, they have lost 2/3 games of this series so far but there is still 1 more game here and I don't expect this to be a series that the Brewers are going to lose. The Brewers are the better team here and have looked a lot better than the Cardinals all year. The Brewers also have Corbin Burnes (2-2, 2.18 ERA) up in this game and he is their ace pitcher on the staff this year. He looked a bit shaky in his start against the Braves over a week ago, giving up 4 runs in that game, but other than that 1 bad start he has been really good all year. He has only given up 3+ runs in 2/9 starts this year and I think he is going to continue to pitch well in this game too. Miles Mikolas (3-2, 1.96 ERA) is up for the Cardinals here and he has also been pitching great all year but he hasn't really had a bad start at all this year. The only time he gave up 3+ runs in a start was in his most recent start but he has been starting to look shaky in his starts lately and I think he is due for a bit of regression here. I think he is due to give up some runs here and the Brewers have a really good batting lineup that will make him pay for any mistakes he makes on the bump. I expect the Brewers to come with a great effort here and get this win so they don't lose this series to a division rival. I like the Brewers to win this game. T.M. Prediction: 5-3 Brewers. |

05-28-22 | Astros v. Mariners UNDER 7.5 | 0-6 | Win | 100 | 11 h 23 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Astros/Mariners UNDER. I am on the under in the Houston Astros vs Seattle Mariners game on Saturday. The Astros lost the 1st game of this series yesterday with Verlander starting and they looked terrible in that game. They had plenty of chances to score runs in that game but couldn't bring them in and their offense hasn't looked great in many of their games lately. They have only put up 3 runs total in their 2 most recent games but they have also put up 2 runs or less in 3/4 of their previous 4 games. I think their offense has been cooling off lately and I don't expect to see them put up a ton of runs here in this road game. Logan Gilbert (4-2, 2.60 ERA) is up for the Mariners here and he has looked great in his starts this year. He hasn't been pitching at his best lately but he still has only had 1 start where he gave up more than 3 runs and he has been a really consistently good pitcher for them all year. The Astros offense hasn't been great lately and I think he will keep them in check here with a good performance in this game. Jose Urquidy (4-1, 4.24 ERA) is up for the Astros here and he didn't look great at the beginning of the year but he has been pitching a lot better lately and I think he is going to continue to pitch well in his starts. His team needs a good performance from him after that loss yesterday and I expect him to deliver since he has only had 1 really bad start this year. I think these pitchers can keep this game low scoring and I don't see either offense putting up a ton of runs here. I like the under in this game. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Astros. |

05-28-22 | Hurricanes v. Rangers OVER 5.5 | Top | 2-5 | Win | 125 | 9 h 27 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Hurricanes/Rangers OVER. I am on the over in the Carolina Hurricanes vs New York Rangers game on Saturday. Both the Hurricanes and the Rangers have looked a lot better in this series playing in their home games but I think this game is going to be a bit different. Every game in this series has gone under but I expect both teams to bring their best effort here and I see this being a much higher scoring game than the rest in this series. This is the 1st elimination game of the series and the Hurricanes haven't won a game on the road yet in this postseason at all but I expect them to turn it on here and activate that killer instinct knowing that they can move on with a win in this game. Their offense looked a lot better in the previous game and I think they can carry over some of that momentum here. The Rangers didn't look great in that previous game but they have looked really good in a majority of the games this series and I think they will come with their best effort here too since they have played some of their best hockey in their home games this year. They have been great defensively in their home games but their offense has been great, scoring 3+ goals in their home games this series and the rangers are already 3-0 this postseason in elimination games with all 3 of those games seeing 8+ goals in them. The Rangers are going to play hard and a bit desperate here being on the brink of elimination and I expect to see goals from them to help ensure a win with no sweat. I think both teams are going to be more offensive here trying to score goals with the importance of this game and I expect it to be high scoring. I like the over in this game. T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Rangers. |

05-28-22 | Phillies +1.5 v. Mets | Top | 2-8 | Loss | -174 | 8 h 30 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Philadelphia Phillies +1.5. I like the Philadelphia Phillies runline in this game against the New York Mets on Saturday. The Phillies didn't look great in the previous game with an 8-6 loss to the Mets and it was more their pitching that let them down early in that game but their offense was not dead and after falling behind 7-0 in the 4th inning, the Phillies still managed to mount a comeback and score 6 runs in the 6th inning to make it a 7-6 game. Now that was all of the runs they would score in that game and went on to lose 8-6 but their offense still looked good and the Mets have been dealing with a lot of problems with their pitchers lately between injuries and just general regression after some great starts by all of their starters. The bullpen also hasn't looked great in their games for the Mets lately and I think this is going to be another game where the pitching for the Mets lets them down and I expect the Phillies to bounce back with a win here after losing 3/4 of their previous 4 games. Taijuan Walker (2-0, 2.70 ERA) is up for the Mets here and he has been very up and down in his starts this year. He has bad starts where he has given up 7+ runs and good starts where he doesn't even allow a run. He is giving up a lot of hits though and has gotten himself into trouble in some of their games lately putting the team in dangerous positions and I think if he does that here, the Phillies will pounce and take advantage of their opportunity. Zach Eflin (1-3, 3.65 ERA) is up for the Phillies here and his ERA isn't great but he has looked really good in a lot of starts lately, giving up 2 runs or less in 3/4 of his previous 4 starts and I think he is only going to get better as the year goes on. I think this is a good game for the Phillies to win here. I like the Phillies runline here. T.M. Prediction: 6-4 Phillies. |

05-28-22 | Yankees v. Rays +1.5 | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 5 h 22 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Tampa Bay Rays +1.5. I like the Tampa Bay Rays runline against the New York Yankees in this game on Saturday. The Rays have lost 2 games in a row to the Yankees now and they didn't look good in their 1st game of the series but they looked a lot better yesterday, still losing that game but only losing it 2-0 with a much better pitching performance in that game. Their bullpen looked a lot better in that game and they have Corey Kluber (1-2, 4.42 ERA) up for them in this game. He has looked a lot better in his most recent starts after putting up a bad game against the Angels a few weeks ago. He's been a lot better since then though and I think he will continue to pitch well in this game. The Rays have already lost 2 games of this series and they are going to be looking to bounce back and avoid losing this series in their own ballpark. Gerrit Cole (4-1, 3.31 ERA) is up for the Yankees here and he's been pitching deep into games lately but he hasn't looked great in those starts and just gave up 5 runs in his most recent start. His last 3 starts haven't been very good either and he started the year this way with a few bad performances. I think Cole is going to continue to look shaky in this game and the Rays will be looking to bounce back in this game too. I like the Rays runline in this game. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Rays. |
