09-09-18 | Titans v. Dolphins OVER 44.5 | 20-27 | Win | 100 | 81 h 12 m | Show | |
15* TITANS/DOLPHINS NFL SHARP PLAY on Titans vs Dolphins over 44½ -109 My money is on the OVER 44.5 in Sunday's Week 1 matchup between the Dolphins and Titans. It's going to be hot and humid in Miami and I think both defenses are going to struggle to play well. Not to mention, these are two defenses that I'm not all that high on. I think we are getting value with this number because of how poor the Dolphins offense was last year, which ranked 28th in scoring at 17.6 ppg. A big reason for that was they didn't have starting quarterback Ryan Tannehill. They should be much improved. The Titans aren't a great offensive team, but it's hard to see the Dolphins defense being any good after losing Suh. Give me the OVER 44.5! |

09-08-18 | Rice +17.5 v. Hawaii | Top | 29-43 | Win | 100 | 92 h 11 m | Show |
20* NCAAF LATE NIGHT GAME OF THE MONTH on Rice +17½ -109 My money is on the Owls to cover the 17.5-point spread against the Rainbow Warriors. Hawaii is getting all kinds of love after pulling off two upsets as double-digit dogs against Colorado State and Navy in their first two games and it has them way overvalued against a Rice team that really played well against Houston. There's a big difference from being a big dog to laying 3 scores and I think we could see an overconfident Hawaii team struggle to just win the game outright. Bet Rice +17.5! |

09-08-18 | San Jose State v. Washington State OVER 65.5 | Top | 0-31 | Loss | -109 | 91 h 12 m | Show |
20* NCAAF OVER/UNDER TOTAL OF THE MONTH on San Jose State vs Washington State over 65½ -109 My money is on the OVER 65.5 in Saturday's matchup between Washington State and San Jose State. A lot of people wondered how Mike Leach's offense was going to fair in 2018 with just 4 starters back and having to prelate all that offensive talent, including starting quarterback Luke Falk. Turns out it's not a problem at all. The Cougars put up 41 points and over 450 yards against a very good Wyoming defense. They should have no problem lighting up the scoreboard against a San Jose State defense that just gave up 44 points and 446 passing yards to Cal Davis. The key here is the Spartans have a much improved offense and will be able to add to the scoring and push this well over the mark. Bet the OVER 65.5! |

09-08-18 | Cincinnati v. Miami-OH UNDER 50.5 | 21-0 | Win | 100 | 40 h 12 m | Show | |
15* CINCINNATI/MIAMI (OH) NCAAF SHARP PLAY on Cincinnati vs Miami-OH under 50½ -110 My money is on the UNDER 50.5 in Saturday's matchup between Miami (OH) and Cincinnati. The Bearcats went on the road and held Chip Kelly's offense to just 17 points and 306 total yards in the opener. While the defense shined, the offense was far from impressive. Cincinnati showed no sign of a passing game, as they threw for just 110 yards. The Rehhawks dropped a heartbreaker at home to Marshall, but the Thundering Herd are loaded and could contend FAU for the C-USA title. The defense played better than the score would indicate and I look for Miami to have no problem keeping the Bearcats offense in check. Bet the UNDER 50.5! |

09-08-18 | Colorado v. Nebraska OVER 66 | 33-28 | Loss | -109 | 84 h 47 m | Show | |
15* COLORADO/NEBRASKA NCAAF SHARP PLAY on Colorado vs Nebraska over 66 -109 My money is on the OVER 66 in Saturday's Pac-12/Big 10 showdown between Colorado and Nebraska. The Cornhuskers are going to be one of the most improved offensive teams in the country under first year head coach Scott Frost and keep an eye out for true freshman quarterback Adrian Martinez, who is getting rave reviews and is a perfect fit for what Frost wants to do. Colorado might only have 4 starters back on offense, but they added in a bunch of talented transfers and brought back a talented quarterback in Steven Montez. The Buffaloes put up 45 points and nearly 600 yards of offense in their opener against in-state rival Colorado State. I think both teams light up the scoreboard and this one flies into the 70s. Bet the OVER 66! |
|||||||
09-08-18 | Georgia State v. NC State OVER 57 | 7-41 | Loss | -109 | 81 h 42 m | Show | |
15* GEORGIA ST/NC STATE NCAAF SHARP PLAY on Georgia State vs NC State over 57 -109 My money is on the OVER 57 in Saturday's matchup between Georgia State and NC State. The Wolfpack are going to be way down defensively this year with all the fire-power they lost from last year's team. NC State returns just 3 starters and has to replace their entire front 6. They only gave up 13 points in their opener, but they did allow 365 yards and it was against an FCS foe. I think Georgia State can put up 20+ points here and that should be more than enough to push this over the mark. While the defense will be taking a step back, this could be the best offense the Wolfpack have had under head coach Dave Doeren, who is entering his 6th season in Raleigh. The books simply haven't set the total high enough. Bet the OVER 57! |
|||||||
09-08-18 | Arizona v. Houston OVER 72.5 | 18-45 | Loss | -109 | 80 h 12 m | Show | |
15* ARIZONA/HOUSTON NCAAF SHARP PLAY on Arizona vs Houston over 72½ -109 My money is on the OVER 72.5 when Arizona travels to take on Houston this Saturday. A lot of people will be hesitant to back the UNDER after Arizona managed just 23 points in their opener against BYU. Khalil Tate wasn't himself and part of the problem was the play-calling. I expect Kevin Sumlin and his staff to have a much better gameplan agains the Cougars. While Houston has one of the best defensive players in the game in Ed Oliver, they still gave up 27 points and over 400 yards to Rice in their opener. The offense scored 45 with over 250 yards rushing and passing. I think all signs point to this being a shootout and the OVER is 8-2 in Arizona's last 10 road games against a team with a winning home record. Bet the OVER 72.5! |
|||||||
09-07-18 | TCU v. SMU UNDER 60.5 | 42-12 | Win | 100 | 18 h 48 m | Show | |
15* TCU/SMU NCAAF SHARP PLAY on TCU vs SMU under 60½ -110 My money is on TCU and SMU to finish UNDER the total of 60.5. I think people are overreacting to TCU putting up 55 in their opener against Southern. They were suppose to score 50+, as they were a 50-point favorite. I know the Mustangs gave up 46 to North Texas, but that's a good offense and it was on the road. SMU also played really well defensively for the 1st half and kinda gave up in the 2nd half. I don't see them laying down against an in-state rival, especially at home. There's going to be some offense in this one, just not near enough to eclipse the mark. Bet the UNDER 60.5! |
|||||||
09-07-18 | Royals v. Twins -142 | 6-10 | Win | 100 | 16 h 46 m | Show | |
15* ROYALS/TWINS MLB SHARP PLAY on Twins -142 My money is on the Twins to secure an easy win at home against division rival Kansas City. Minnesota will send out Stephen Gonsalves, who was rocked in his first start, but has bounced back in his last 2 outings. I love that he's going up against a Royals offense that has scored just 4 runs on 7 hits in their last 2 games combined. As for the Twins offense, look for them to score early and often in this one. KC is giving the rock to Heath Fillmyer, who has a 9.82 ERA and 2.091 WHIP in 3 road starts. Bet Minnesota -142! |
|||||||
09-07-18 | Cardinals v. Tigers +140 | Top | 3-5 | Win | 140 | 15 h 22 m | Show |
20* MLB INTERLEAGUE GAME OF THE MONTH on Tigers +140 My money is on Detroit to cash in a win at home as a big dog against the Cardinals. St Louis has remarkably won all 7 of Austin Gomber's starts, but I see that coming to an end. Gomber was extremely fortunate to only give up 2 runs in his last start, as he allowed 10 hits in 7 innings. Not only do I think he struggles, but I look for a strong outing here from Tigers' starter Daniel Norris, who has a 1.93 ERA and 1.285 WHIP at home and has cashed in 5 of his last 7 starts in a series opener. Bet Detroit +140! |
|||||||
09-06-18 | Falcons v. Eagles UNDER 45.5 | Top | 12-18 | Win | 100 | 41 h 32 m | Show |
25* NFL OPENING WEEK TOTAL OF THE YEAR on Falcons vs Eagles under 45½ -110 My money is on the UNDER 45.5 in Thursday's NFL opener between the Falcons and Eagles. I'm not surprised that this number is higher than it should be, as the public can't help themselves but take the OVER in prime time games, especially with all the offensive talent these two teams have. I just don't see either offense scoring enough here to push this over the mark. Both of these teams are stacked on the defensive side of the ball. Each finished in the Top 10 in both total defense and scoring defense in 2017 and both should be just as strong in 2018. Bet the UNDER 45.5! |
|||||||
09-06-18 | Padres v. Reds -145 | 6-2 | Loss | -145 | 15 h 52 m | Show | |
15* PADRES/REDS MLB SHARP PLAY on Reds -145 A lot of people will struggle to play on a bad team like Cincinnati, especially given their current form, but my money is on the Reds to cash in an easy win at home against the Padres. A big reason Cincinnati has struggled of late is their schedule. They have played 13 of their last 16 on the road and all 16 have been against division opponents. This team will be ecstatic to see San Diego and they have a big edge on the mound with the red-hot Luis Castillo going up against the Padres Eric Lauer. Castillo has a 3.24 ERA and 0.960 WHIP in his last 3 starts and Lauer has a 5.48 ERA in 9 road starts and a 5.79 ERA in his last 3 outings. Bet the Reds -145! |

09-05-18 | Tigers v. White Sox -160 | Top | 10-2 | Loss | -160 | 16 h 22 m | Show |
20* AL CENTRAL GAME OF THE MONTH on White Sox -160 My money is on the White Sox to cash in an easy win at home against the Tigers on Wednesday. These two teams come into this matchup with identical records at 56-83, but are headed in completely different directions. Chicago has won 14 of their last 21, while Detroit has lost 14 of their last 20. Hard to not like the White Sox in this one, as they will send out Michael Kopech, who has posted a 0.82 ERA and 1.091 WHIP in his first 3 starts. That includes an outing at Detroit, where he held the Tigers to just 1 run in 6 innings. The opposing starter in that game was Jordan Zimmermann and he's oppose Kopech again in this one. Zimmermann allowed 4 runs on 8 hits in 6 innings in that recent start against Chicago and owns a 4.59 ERA and 1.306 WHIP in 10 road starts this season. Bet the White Sox -160! |
|||||||
09-05-18 | Tigers v. White Sox UNDER 7.5 | 10-2 | Loss | -105 | 16 h 22 m | Show | |
15* TIGERS/WHITE SOX MLB SHARP PLAY on Tigers vs White Sox under 7½ -105 My money is on the UNDER 7.5 in Wednesday's AL Central showdown between the Tigers and White Sox. These two teams have gone UNDER the total in 5 of their 8 meetings in Detroit this season and I look for both offenses to struggle in this one. Chicago will send out Michael Kopech, who has a 0.82 ERA and 1.091 WHIP in 3 starts. The Tigers will counter with veteran Jordan Zimmermann, who has a strong 3.50 ERA and 1.111 WHIP over his last 3 starts. Bet the UNDER 7.5! |

09-04-18 | Mets v. Dodgers -230 | Top | 4-11 | Win | 100 | 18 h 22 m | Show |
20* NL SHARP PLAY OF THE MONTH on Dodgers -230 I've got no problem laying the big juice and backing the Dodgers at home on Tuesday. LA will be all business after losing the opener to the Mets on Monday. It was a rare loss for the Dodgers down the stretch, as they are 8-2 in their last 10. It was also a rare loss against a bad team, as LA is 77-30 in their last 107 home games against a team with a losing record. The Mets are also just 22-46 in their last 68 road games against a team with a winning record. Rich Hill will start for LA and he's 9-3 in his last 12 home starts against a team with a losing record. Jason Vargas goes for NY and the Mets are 3-8 in his last 11 road starts. Bet the Dodgers -230! |
|||||||
09-04-18 | Mets v. Dodgers OVER 7.5 | 4-11 | Win | 100 | 18 h 22 m | Show | |
15* METS/DODGERS MLB SHARP PLAY on Mets vs Dodgers over 7½ -120 My money is on the OVER in Tuesday's showdown between the Dodgers and Mets. New York will send out Jason Vargas, who has an ugly 6.56 ERA and 1.572 WHIP in 16 starts. Vargas is also just 3-4 with a 7.37 ERA in 10 road starts. Rich Hill will take the mound for LA and he's had a miserable time pitching well agains the Mets. Hill owns a 7.66 ERA and 1.791 WHIP in 5 career starts against New York. Both teams are in a position to score early and often, which should have this one flying over the total, as all we need is for these two to combine for 8 runs. Bet the OVER 7.5! |
|||||||
09-03-18 | Orioles v. Mariners UNDER 9 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 17 h 22 m | Show | |
15* ORIOLES/MARINERS MLB SHARP PLAY on Orioles vs Mariners under 9 -105 My money is on the UNDER in Monday's MLB matchup that has the Mariners hosting the Orioles. This figures to be a pitcher-friendly night at Safeco with temps expected in the high 60s and the wind blowing in from left center. I also like the pitching matchup. Josh Rogers will go for Baltimore and he pitched well in his MLB debut last week against the Blue Jays. Seattle will counter with Erasmo Ramirez, who has 1.80 ERA at home this season and a strong 3.77 ERA and 0.904 WHIP in 7 career starts against the Orioles. Bet the UNDER 9! |

09-03-18 | Virginia Tech +7.5 v. Florida State | Top | 24-3 | Win | 100 | 40 h 22 m | Show |
20* VA TECH/FLORIDA ST CFB VEGAS SHARP TOP PLAY on Virginia Tech +7½ -110 My money is on the Hokies to cover this spread on the road against the Seminoles. While FSU should be improved over what they put out on the field a year ago, I think they are getting way too much love from the books in this one. Virginia Tech is a program that is back on the rise under head coach Justin Fuente and while the Hokies have continuity on their staff, Florida State is playing their first game under new head coach Willie Taggart. I think there's a lot of question marks with the Seminoles and I just don't see them pulling away and winning here by more than a touchdown and wouldn't be shocked at all if Va Tech won this game outright. Give me the Hokies +7.5! |

09-03-18 | Tigers +104 v. White Sox | 2-4 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 22 m | Show | |
15* TIGERS/WHITE SOX MLB SHARP PLAY on Tigers +104 My money is on Detroit in Monday's battle of AL East bottom feeders. The Tigers are coming off a big 11-7 win over the Yankees on Sunday and have been swinging the bats well, as they have now scored 25 runs in their last 4 games. The offense figures to stay hot against White Sox starter Reynaldo Lopez, who has an ugly 5.52 ERA and 1.431 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Detroit will have Michael Fulmer on the mound and he's got a strong 3.37 ERA and 1.195 WHIP in 7 career starts against the White Sox. Bet Detroit +104! |
|||||||
09-02-18 | Miami-FL v. LSU +3.5 | Top | 17-33 | Win | 100 | 40 h 50 m | Show |
20* LSU/MIAMI CFB VEGAS SHARP TOP PLAY on LSU +3½ -110 My money is on LSU to cover the 3.5-point spread against Miami. I think a lot of people are sleeping on this LSU team because they only have 10 starters back, but the Tigers recruit at such a high level that they simply reload with top tier talent. At the same time, I think the Hurricanes are overrated. Miami had that big win over Notre Dame at home, but lost their last 3 and were very fortunate in a number of other games. This team relied way too much on turnovers and while they were great at forcing them, that's not something that typically carries over from one season to the next. I think this is much more evenly matched game than people think and could see LSU running away with this one. Bet the Tigers +3.5! |
|||||||
09-02-18 | Diamondbacks v. Dodgers -171 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 22 m | Show | |
15* DBACKS/DODGERS MLB SHARP PLAY on Dodgers -171 My money is on the Dodgers to cash in a win at home against the Diamondbacks on Sunday. LA will have one of the best starters in the game going into this one, as they give the rock to Walker Buehler, who owns a 2.59 ERA and 0.986 WHIP in 17 starts. He's got an even better 1.65 ERA and 0.787 WHIP in 9 home starts. He'll be facing a struggling Arizona offense, so expect another strong outing here. LA also comes in playing great baseball, as they are 7-1 in their last 8. Bet the Dodgers -171! |
|||||||
09-02-18 | Cubs v. Phillies -148 | 8-1 | Loss | -148 | 10 h 47 m | Show | |
15* CUBS/PHILLIES MLB SHARP PLAY on Phillies -148 My money is on the Phillies to cash in a winning ticket at home against the Cubs. This might seem like a big price to back Philadelphia given Chicago has Jon Lester on the mound, but this is all about Phillies starter Aaron Nola, who is putting up Cy Young numbers. Nola is 15-3 with a 2.10 ERA and 0.966 WHIP in 27 starts. He's also got a ridiculous 1.94 ERA and 0.977 WHIP in 13 home starts and the Phillies have only ended up on the losing end of one of those outings. Bet the Phillies -148! |
|||||||
09-01-18 | Middle Tennessee State v. Vanderbilt -3 | 7-35 | Win | 100 | 88 h 24 m | Show | |
15* MIDDLE TENN/VANDERBILT CFB SHARP PLAY on Vanderbilt -3 -105 My money is on the Commodores to cover this small spread at home against Middle Tennessee. I'm not sure why this line is so small, but I'll gladly take advantage of the opportunity. Vanderbilt doesn't get the same public treatment as other SEC teams and there's a lot of people on the Blue Raiders this year. These two teams have played each of the last two years and the Commodores have won both. They won 47-24 as a mere 3-point home favorite in 2016 and 28-6 as a 3-point road favorite last year. The line is the same and I expect the result to be the same as well. I see another lopsided win for Vanderbilt. Bet the Commodores -3! |
|||||||
09-01-18 | Kent State +16.5 v. Illinois | 24-31 | Win | 100 | 80 h 24 m | Show | |
15* KENT ST/ILLINOIS CFB SHARP PLAY on Kent State +16½ -110 My money is on the Golden Flashes cashing in as a dog on the road against Illinois Saturday. Kent State is not a team the public wants anything to do with. While that will also be the case with Illinois against most teams, the public will be all over a Big Ten team laying what they see as a small number against a school from the MAC that only won 2 games last year. Illinois also won just 2 games in 2017 and I'm just not convinced Lovie Smith is going to turn this thing around. Speaking of head coaches, I love the hire of Sean Lewis by Kent State. Lewis was the OC at Syracuse under Dino Babers, so look for a more up-tempo attack. A change was desperately needed after the Golden Flashes averaged just 12.8 ppg last year. I think the new look offense will make it tough for the Illini to prepare and I think this ends up a lot closer than people think. Bet Kent State +16.5! |
|||||||
09-01-18 | Florida Atlantic +21 v. Oklahoma | 14-63 | Loss | -110 | 80 h 19 m | Show | |
15* FAU/OKLAHOMA CFB SHARP PLAY on Florida Atlantic +21 -110 My money is on Lane Kiffin and the FAU Owls to cover this big spread on the road against Oklahoma. I don't think the public is oblivious to what's going on in Boca Raton, as FAU is coming an 11-3 season, where they ended the year with 10 straight wins. This team just kept getting better and better as the season progressed and I expect that to carry over with 15 returning starters. I think the public will be on this team a lot this year, but not against Oklahoma, who everyone is in love with after last year. I know the Sooners have a lot of talent coming back and recruit extremely well, but the loss of Baker Mayfield is a massive one. I think people just assume former Texas A&M transfer Kyler Murray is going to step in and keep the offense going, but I wasn't all that impressed with him when he played with the Aggies. FAU will not be intimidated at all when they visit Norman on Saturday and it wouldn't shock me if they pulled off the upset. Bet FAU +21! |

15* METS/GIANTS MLB SHARP PLAY on Giants -114 My money is on the Giants to cash in an easy win at home against the Mets on Friday. San Francisco had their 4-game winning streak snapped last night in the series finale against the Diamondbacks, but I'm confident they bounce back in a big way here. SF will have Andrew Suarez on the mound and he's got a rock-solid 3.39 ERA in 11 home starts and a red-hot 2.87 ERA over his last 3 starts. Zach Wheeler will take the mound for New York and the Mets have dropped 9 of his last 12 starts in a series opener and New York as a team is just 16-40 in their last 56 after a game where they scored 5 or more runs. Bet the Giants -114! |

08-31-18 | Western Kentucky v. Wisconsin OVER 51 | Top | 3-34 | Loss | -110 | 89 h 54 m | Show |
25* WISC/WKU NON-CONF GAME OF THE MONTH on over 51 -110 My money is on Friday's college football action between Wisconsin and Western Kentucky going well over the mark of 51 set by the books. I think the total here has been set too low, as the perception will be that the Badgers defense will keep the Hilltoppers from scoring. The thing is, Wisconsin could easily top this total on their own. The Badgers have scored 58, 54 and 59 in their last three home openers, all coming against Group of 5 teams. While I'm expecting another high-scoring game from Wisconsin in this one, I also think WKU can put up some points as they should be greatly improved, even with the loss of star quarterback Mike White. The Hilltoppers averaged just 25.5 ppg last year after averaging 40+ ppg in each of the previous 3 seasons. Bet the OVER 51! |

08-31-18 | Red Sox v. White Sox OVER 9 | 1-6 | Loss | -104 | 16 h 25 m | Show | |
15* RED SOX/WHITE SOX MLB SHARP PLAY on OVER 9 -104 My money is on the Red Sox and White Sox easily eclipsing the total of 9 set here by the books. Chicago's Michael Kopech has looked great in his first 2 starts, but it's come against the Twins and Tigers. I don't see him having near the success against one of the best lineups in the game. While Boston is capable of scoring 9+ runs on their own every time they take the field, I do expect Chicago's offense to help push this total over. Nathan Eovaldi started strong with the Red Sox, but it's been downhill of late, as he's got an ugly 6.28 ERA and 1.814 WHIP in his last 3 starts. OVER is 7-3-1 in Boston's last 11 vs a team that's won fewer than 40% of their games and 24-9-1 i the White Sox's last 34 when coming off a loss. Bet the OVER 9! |

15* MARINERS/A'S MLB SHARP PLAY on A's -135 My money is on the A's to cash in an easy win at home against the Mariners on Thursday. Oakland has proven to be one of the best teams in the majors and should have a big enough edge on the mound here to win this one going away. Oakland will send out Frankie Montas, who has a solid 3.75 ERA in 10 starts. The key here is he's facing a struggling Seattle offense that has scored 3 or fewer runs in all 3 losses during their current 3 game losing streak. The A's on the other hand have scored 4 or more runs in 7 straight games and should be able to keep it going against Seattle's Wade LeBlanc, who has a 4.70 ERA and 1.305 WHIP over his last 3 starts. Bet the A's -135! |

25* PURDUE/NORTHWESTERN BIG TEN GAME OF THE MONTH on Northwestern +2½ -110 My money is on Northwestern to cash in a win and cover on the road against the Boilermakers. I'm not sure what the books are thinking in this one. Northwestern has 14 starters back from a team that closed out the 2017 season with 8 straight wins, which included an easy 23-13 win at home against Purdue. Starting QB, Clayton Thorson is listed as questionable, but is expected to play and the Wildcats offense should have their way with an inexperienced Purdue defense that returns just 4 starters and has to replace 9 of their top 12 tacklers. Keep in mind it was the Boilermaker's defense, not their offense that led to the big turnaround in 2017. Bet Northwestern +2.5! |

08-30-18 | Brewers v. Reds +111 | 2-1 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 49 m | Show | |
15* BREWERS/REDS MLB SHARP PLAY on Reds +111 My money is on the Reds to cash in a win at home against the Brewers on Thursday. Cincinnati has split the first two games of the series, winning 9-7 on Tuesday and losing 12-13 in extra innings on Wednesday. The big takeaway for me is how the Reds are swinging the bats. I look for them to stay hot against Milwaukee starter Wade Miley. The key here is I think Cincinnati's Cody Reed can keep the Brewers offense in check. Reed has been sharp as a reliever since being called up earlier this month, posting a 2.79 ERA in 7 appearances. Many of which have come in high-leverage situations. Even with yesterday's win, Milwaukee is just 2-8 in their last 10 road games vs a team with a losing record and have dropped 7 of their last 9 following a win. Bet the Reds +111! |

08-29-18 | Brewers v. Reds +135 | 13-12 | Loss | -100 | 16 h 49 m | Show | |
15* NL CENTRAL SHARP PLAY OF THE DAY on Reds +135 My money is on the Reds to stay hot against the Brewers and cash in another win tonight. Cincinnati snapped a 5-game losing streak with a 9-7 win over Milwaukee on Tuesday and are in a great spot to make it two in a row. The Reds will send out the red-hot Matt Harvey, who has a 1.45 ERA and 0.911 WHIP in his last 3 starts. It appears Harvey has regained some of the form that made him one of the best starters in the game. I think he's going to come out with a chip on his shoulder after the Brewers were unwilling to part with the right pieces to acquire him in a trade. Harvey should also receive some decent run support, as the Brewers will give the ball to Freddy Peralta, who has a 5.06 ERA in 8 road starts and a 5.62 ERA in his last 3 outings. Bet the Reds +135! |

08-29-18 | Mets v. Cubs -183 | Top | 10-3 | Loss | -183 | 9 h 14 m | Show |
25* NATIONAL LEAGUE SHARP PLAY OF THE MONTH on Cubs -183 My money is on the Cubs to cash in a win at home against the Mets on Wednesday. Chicago has really taken off since they acquired Daniel Murphy in a trade with the Nationals. With the way New York is struggling offensively, this could get ugly in a hurry. Cubs will have rookie Alec Mills on the mound and all he did in his MLB debut last week was hold the Reds to 1 run on 3 hits in 5 2/3 innings. Mills should get plenty of run support here, as Mets' starter Jason Vargas has a 8.15 ERA and 1.733 WHIP over 9 road starts. Bet the Cubs -183! |

25* DBACKS/GIANTS NL WEST GAME OF THE MONTH on Giants -108 My money is on the Giants to cash in a win at home against the Diamondbacks on Tuesday. This is simply too good a price to pass up on San Francisco with ace Madison Bumgarner on the mound. Bumgarner has a 2.88 ERA in 15 starts overall and a 1.71 ERA and 0.993 WHIP in 7 home starts. he's also got a strong 2.60 ERA over 31 career starts against the Diamondbacks. It also helps he's catching Arizona in a bit of an offensive slump. The Diamondbacks are averaging just 3.6 runs/game over their last 7 and were shutout in yesterday's 2-0 loss to SF in the series opener. Bet the Giants -108! |

20* BREWERS/REDS MLB SHARP PLAY on Reds +108 My money is on the Reds to cash in a win at home against the Brewers on Tuesday. Milwaukee is getting way too much respect here and a big reason for that is Cincinnati enters this contest having lost 5 straight, but all 5 of those were on the road with the last 4 coming against the Cubs. The key here is the pitching matchup in this contest heavily favors the Reds, who will send out Anthony Desclafani against the Brewers Junior Guerra. Desclafani has been one of the better starters in the game in the month of August, as he's posted a 1.95 ERA in 4 starts. Guerra has also made 4 starts in August, but he owns an ugly 5.09 ERA. Guerra is also a mere 3-5 with a 5.76 ERA in 9 road starts this season. Bet the Reds +108! |

20* YANKEES/MARLINS MLB SHARP PLAY on Yankees vs Marlins under 7½ -115 My money is on the UNDER 7.5 in Wednesday's action that has the Marlins hosting the Yankees in a series that means a little more than it normally would given former Miami slugger Giancarlo Stanton is on New York's roster. Neither offense could get much of anything going in Tuesday's opener, as the Yankees scratched out a 2-1 win. I'm expecting another low-scoring game here with today's pitching matchup. NY will send out Lance Lynn, who has really thrown it well since being traded to the Yankees (3.31 ERA last 3 starts). Miami will counter with Trevor Richards, who has a strong 3.27 ERA and 1.159 WHIP in 8 home starts this season. Bet the UNDER 7.5! |

Chicago's offense has been awful of late, as they have scored exactly 1 run in each of their last 4 games. The Cubs knew they had to do something and went out an acquired Daniel Murphy from the Nationals on Tuesday. I expect him to play right away and provide a big spark, as the Cubs should get their offense rolling against Tigers starter Francisco Liriano, who has a 6.94 ERA in his last 3 starts. Chicago will counter with Jon Lester, who is coming off a strong start at Pittsburgh, but still owns an ugly 7.98 ERA and 1.772 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Bet the OVER 9.5! |

20* PADRES/ROCKIES MLB SHARP PLAY on Rockies -168 My money is on the Rockies to cash in an easy win here at home against the Padres. Colorado is on fire right now. The Rockies have won 4 straight and are 8-1 in their last 9 overall. San Diego is the exact opposite, as they have dropped 6 of their last 7. Tyler Anderson has pitched very well for the Rockies at home, as he has a 3.47 ERA and 1.225 WHIP in 12 home starts. Robbie Erlin will be on the mound for Colorado, who has struggled on the road and Coors Field is arguably the toughest place to pitch on the road. Bet the Rockies -168! |

20* INDIANS/RED SOX MLB SHARP PLAY on Indians +140 My money is on the Indians to cash in another win on the road against the Red Sox. Cleveland took the opener 5-4 on Monday and are in a great spot here. Nathan Eovaldi has pitched well since coming to Boston, but I don't see him staying at that level. Keep in mind we did see a clunker a couple starts back at Baltimore, where he allowed 8 runs on 10 hits in 2 2/3 innings. Shane Bieber will take the mound for the Indians and he's got a 3.86 ERA in 6 road starts and 2.70 ERA in his last 3 outings. Bet Cleveland +140! |

20* ASTROS/A'S MLB SHARP PLAY on Astros -144 My money is on the Astros to cash in a win on Sunday against the A's. Houston is going to be extremely motivated here to avoid getting swept in Oakland. They also want to take by the top spot in the AL West, as the A's tied things up with yesterday's win. The Astros have just the guy on the mound to ensure they leave with a win. Houston will send out ace Justin Verlander, who has been nearly unbeatable on the road this season. The Astros have won 9 of his 11 road starts and he's been the main reason why, as he's posted a 1.74 ERA and 0.940 WHIP. Verlander also owns a 2.25 ERA in 24 career starts against the A's. Bet Houston -144! |

20* ASTROS/A'S MLB SHARP PLAY on Astros vs A's over 7½ +110 My money is on the Astros/A's to eclipse the total of 7.5 set here by the oddsmakers. These two have been right around this number in each of the first two games of the series, as they combined for 7 runs in Friday's series opener and 8 more yesterday. While the Coliseum is more of a pitchers park, we should see a little more carry with this being a day game and the win blowing out to right center. OVER is 5-1 in Verlander's last 6 starts against division opponents and 4-0 in Manaea's last 4 against the AL West. Bet the OVER 7.5! |

20* DBACKS/PADRES MLB SHARP PLAY on Padres +128 My money is on the Padres to cash in a win at home against the Diamondbacks. Arizona comes in having won 3 straight, while San Diego has dropped 5 in a row, but the key here is the Padres have the better starter going in this one. San Diego's Clayton Richard has a strong 3.59 ERA and 1.183 WHIP in 11 home starts this season. On the flip side of this, Arizona will turn to Zack Godley, who has an ugly 5.06 ERA and 1.601 WHIP in 13 road starts. Bet the Padres +128! |

20* ROCKIES/BRAVES MLB SHARP PLAY on Braves -153 My money is on the Braves to cash in an easy home win over the Rockies. Atlanta will have All-Star Mike Foltynewicz on the mound and he comes in 10-7 with a 2.86 ERA and 1.182 WHIP in 23 starts. He's been on top of his game in his last 3 starts, posting a 1.83 ERA and 1.118 WHIP. On the flip side of this, Colorado will turn to Antonio Senzatela, who figures to be a little rusty in his first start back from the DL and you also have to factor in his ugly 5.71 ERA and 1.269 WHIP in 3 road starts this season. Bet the Braves -153! |

Chicago will be playing with some momentum, as they come in having won their last 2 and have been hitting the ball well of late. The White Sox have scored at least 5 runs in each of their last 4 games. Kansas City is giving up over 5 runs a game on the season and starter Jake Junis has an ugly 7.94 ERA in 2 career starts against the White Sox. James Shields will start for Chicago and he's been one of the most unlucky pitchers in the game. The guy has 4 wins despite 15 quality starts. He's got a solid 3.56 ERA at home and I expect him to get a rare win tonight. Bet the White Sox -117! |

New York will have Lance Lynn on the mound and he's been unbelievable in his first two starts in pinstripes. Lynn allowed 2 hits over 7 1/3 shutout innings against the White Sox on 8/6 and then allowed just 1 run on 5 hits in 5 innings the Rangers. I look for him to stay hot and for the Yankees' bats to come alive at home after scoring just 2 total runs in their previous two against the Rays. The offense is too good to keep struggling like that and they come in averaging 5.5 runs/game at home. Bet New York -163! |

20* AMERICAN LEAGUE TOTAL SHARP PLAY on Blue Jays vs Royals over 9 -115 My money is on the OVER 9 runs in Thursday's AL action that has the Blue Jays visiting the Royals. On one side we have Toronto sending out second-year starter Sam Gaviglio, who is 1-5 with a 5.01 ERA and 1.456 WHIP in 16 starts. Even more note worthy is the fact that Gaviglio is just 1-4 with 8.10 ERA and 1.710 WHIP in 8 road starts, 6 of which have gone OVER the total. On the other side the Royals are being forced to move reliever Glenn Sparkman into the rotation and he'll be making his first career start in this one. Hard to see Sparkman being all that effective here, as he's got a 5.06 ERA and 1.63 WHIP in 16 innings of relief this season. Bet the OVER 9! |

Boston has won 5 straight and 11 of 12 overall, as they are now a ridiculous 51-games over .500. This team has shown zero signs of slowing down and I don't see the Phillies being able to take them down on Wednesday. Nathan Eovaldi will be on the mound for Boston and he's posted a 2.04 ERA over his last 3 starts and even if he struggles, which I don't think he will (Philadelphia has scored 3 or fewer runs in 4 of their last 5 games), the Red Sox should score more than enough here to get the win. Bet Boston -122! |

I look for them to stay hot against Marlins starter Trevor Richards, who is just 1-4 with a 1.595 ERA in 9 road starts. OVER is 20-7 in the Marlins last 27 as a road dog of +150 to +200 and 29-19 in the Braves last 48 as a favorite of -110 or more. Bet the OVER 8! |

I look for both teams to put up big numbers here offensively, as each side has been swinging the bat well of late. The two combined for 14 runs in yesterday's series opener and should easily top double-digits here. Chicago will send out Lucas Giolito, who has a 7.16 ERA in his last 3 starts and the Tigers counter with Blaine Hardy, who just gave up 5 runs on 7 hits in his last start at LA. Bet the OVER 9! |

20* MLB INTERLEAGUE SHARP PLAY OF THE DAY on Indians -158 My money is on the Indians to cash in a win on the road against the Reds. There's an obvious gap in talent here. Cleveland has a 12-game lead in the AL Central and Cincinnati is 16.5-games back in the NL Central. The even bigger key here is the starting pitching matchup, as the Indians send out Mike Clevinger against the Reds Homer Bailey. Clevinger has thrived away from home this season, where he's posted a 2.69 ERA and 1.166 WHIP. He's also coming in red-hot with a 3.00 ERA and 0.944 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Bailey is a complete mess right now and has had a horrific time throwing well at home. He's 0-5 with a 6.44 ERA and 1.661 WHIP in 8 starts at Great American Ball Park. Bet the Indians -158! |

Scherzer looks well on his way to winning a 3rd straight NL Cy Young, as he comes in at 15-5 with a 2.28 ERA and 0.897 WHIP in 24 starts. Cubs will counter with Cole Hamels, who is a mere 7-9 with a 4.38 ERA and 1.357 WHIP in 22 starts. Bet Washington -140! |

20* BREWERS/BRAVES MLB SHARP PLAY on Brewers +110 My money is on Milwaukee to cash in another win on the road against the Braves. The Brewers rebounded from that ugly 10-1 loss on Friday with a 4-2 victory on Saturday and appear to be in a great spot to come out on top Sunday. Milwaukee will turn to Chase Anderson, who has posted a very strong 2.59 ERA and 1.069 WHIP in 11 road starts. Atlanta will counter with Sean Newcomb, who is just 6-13 in his last 19 starts vs a team with a winning record, including 2-7 in his last 9 vs a team above .500. Newcomb was also not sharp in his only start against the Brewers this season, giving up 5 runs on 5 hits and 4 walks in 3 2/3 innings of a 10-3 loss. Bet Milwaukee +110! |

08-11-18 | Dodgers v. Rockies +127 | 2-3 | Win | 127 | 9 h 16 m | Show | |
20* NATIONAL LEAGUE SHARP PLAY OF THE DAY on Rockies +127 My money is on the Rockies to cash in a win at home against NL West rival Los Angeles. Colorado bounced back from a loss to the Dodgers on Thursday with a 5-4 win on Friday. It was a huge win for the Rockies, who trailed 4-5 going into the bottom of the 7th. Colorado is now in a prime spot to come out on top again. The Rockies will send out the red-hot Kyle Freeland, who has a 1.47 ERA in his last 3 starts. Freeland is also one of the few pitchers who have enjoyed starting at Coors Field. He's 7-2 with a 2.18 ERA and 1.145 WHIP in 10 home starts. LA will give the rock to youngster Walker Buehler, who has been good overall, but owns a not so great 5.26 ERA and 1.363 WHIP in 5 road starts. Bet the Rockies +127! |

20* INTERLEAGUE SHARP PLAY OF THE DAY on Royals +145 My money is on the Royals to take the series opener at home against the Cardinals tonight. KC snapped their 6-game losing streak with an impressive 9-0 win over the Cubs on Wednesday and I look for them to carry over that momentum here. ST Louis was off on Thursday and that's worth noting, as the Cardinals are a mere 21-44 in their last 65 after an off day. St Louis has also dropped 11 of their last 15 after a win and 5 of their last 7 series openers. KC's Burch Smith might be 1-3 with a 8.28 ERA in 5 starts, but he's 1-0 with a 2.84 ERA and 0.474 WHIP at home. Bet the Royals +145! |

20* AMERICAN LEAGUE SHARP PLAY OF THE DAY on Astros -202 My money is on Houston to cash in as a big home favorite against the Mariners. The Astros will have Gerrit Cole on the mound for this one and he's 4-1 with a 2.52 ERA and 0.933 WHIP in 10 home starts. The even more important stat is that Houston is 8-2 in those 10 home starts. Cole is also 2-1 with a 1.19 ERA and 0.706 WHIP in 3 career starts against Seattle. Two of those came this season. In those 2 starts he's allowed a mere 2 earned runs on 9 hits in 13 2/3 innings. Mike Leake will be the guy for the Mariners and he's also faced Houston twice this season. The results aren't as good, as he's allowed 8 runs on 15 hits in 12 innings of work. Bet the Astros -202! |

20* NL WEST SHARP PLAY OF THE WEEK on Rockies +125 My money is on Colorado as a home dog against the Dodgers. The perception here is that LA has a big edge on the mound with Ross Stripling, who is sitting at 8-3 with a 3.04 ERA in 16 starts, but he's not been nearly as good on the road as he has at home, plus he's coming into this start in miserable form after allowing 9 runs on 14 hits, 4 home runs, in his last 2 starts. Coors Field is the last place you want to take the mound not pitching at your best. Bet the Rockies +125! |

20* MLB VALUE PLAY OF THE DAY on Cardinals -115 My money is on the Cardinals as a small road favorite against the Marlins. This is just too good a price to pass up on St Louis with how bad Miami is playing right now. The Marlins are a mere 1-7 in their last 8 games and have been atrocious at the plate, scoring 3 or fewer runs in 6 straight games. Miami's Trevor Richards has pitched well of late, but is still just 3-6 with a 3.92 ERA and 1.394 WHIP in 16 starts. He gave up 3 runs on 7 hits in just 5 innings of a 4-1 loss to the Cardinals back in June and I look for St Louis to put up a big number here and win this one going away. Give me the Cardinals -115! |

Philadelphia defeated Arizona 5-2 on Tuesday as a +150 underdog and are now 6-1 in their last 7. No way should a team playing this well be this big of a dog, especially with the a red-hot starter like Vincent Velasquez on the mound. Velasquez has a 0.98 ERA and 0.927 WHIP over his last 3 starts. He also owns a strong 2.54 ERA in 9 road starts. Arizona will send out Pat Corbin, and are just 1-7 in his last 8 starts on just 4 days of rest and 2-6 in his last 8 starts at home.

20* AL EAST SHARP PLAY OF THE WEEK on Orioles +157 My money is on the Orioles as a big road dog against division rival Tampa Bay. The Rays were just swept in a 3-game series at home against the White Sox, as they continue to have a difficult time beating the bottom feeders. These two teams just met a little over a week ago in Baltimore and the Orioles swept that 3-game series in convincing fashion. Baltimore scored at least 11 runs in all 3 games, outscoring the Rays 37-12 in the series. Tampa Bay is just 3-15 in their last 18 at home when revenging a 3-game sweep where they lost all 3 games by at least 3 runs. Orioles also have a red-hot starter going in this one, as Alex Cobb has posted a 2.65 ERA in his last 3 starts. The most recent at the Yankees, where he gave up just 1 run in 6 innings. This is simply too good a price to pass up. Bet Baltimore +157! |

20* MLB INTERLEAGUE PLAY OF THE DAY on Giants +137 My money is on San Francisco as a decently priced home dog against the Astros in Monday's MLB action. The Astros are way overpriced in this one. Two of Houston's best players are on the DL in Jose Altuve and Carlos Correa. They also aren't expected to have George Springer for this contest. Not to mention the Astros are in a prime letdown spot in the first game after their huge series against the Dodgers over the week. San Francisco also has one of the hottest starters in the game going for this contest. The Giants will give the rock to Dereck Rodriguez, who has a 1.86 ERA and 0.828 WHIP over his last 3 starts. Rodriguez has made 10 starts in 2018 and owns a 2.71 ERA. San Francisco is 8-2 in those 10 outings. Houston lost the finale against LA and are just 1-4 in their last 5 after a loss. The Astros are also just 1-4 in Charlie Morton's last 5 starts vs a team with a winning record. Bet the Giants +137! |

Toronto's offense has come to life at Safeco Field, as they scored 19 runs on 34 hits over the first 3 games of the series. While the Blue Jays are clicking at the plate, Seattle has gone 6 straight games where they have failed to score more than 3 runs. They managed just 1 run on 3 hits in yesterday's 5-1 loss. I know the numbers aren't great for Toronto starter Sam Gaviglio, but with the way the Mariners are swinging the bat, he should be in store for a strong start here. Bet the Blue Jays +140! |

20* NATIONAL LEAGUE SHARP PLAY OF THE DAY on Cubs -187 My money is on the Cubs to cash in another win at home over the Padres. Chicago lost the opener on Thursday to San Diego and has responded with back-to-back wins. Hard to not like the Cubs chances of adding another win to their resume on Sunday, as they will send out their ace Jon Lester, who despite his recent struggles owns a 2.97 ERA in 11 home starts (9-2 team record). Lester is also 3-1 with a 3.28 ERA in 6 career starts against the Padres. San Diego will start Joey Lucchesi, who has a 5.93 ERA and 1.611 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Bet the Cubs -187! |

08-04-18 | Astros v. Dodgers -116 | 14-0 | Loss | -116 | 17 h 25 m | Show | |
20* INTERLEAGUE SHARP PLAY OF THE DAY on Dodgers -116 My money is on the Dodgers as a small home favorite against the Astros on Saturday. Houston came out on top 2-1 in Fridays' series opener, as Justin Verlander was on top of his game. This time around the Astros won't have that elite starter on the mound. Houston is sending out the struggling Lance McCullers, who is 0-3 with a miserable 9.22 ERA and 1.903 WHIP in his last 3 starts. A stretch in which he's allowed 14 runs on 16 hits in just 13 2/3 innings of work. With the fire-power that LA has on the offensive side, this one could get ugly in a hurry. Give me the Dodgers -116! |

08-03-18 | Blue Jays v. Mariners -155 | 7-2 | Loss | -155 | 18 h 25 m | Show | |
20* AMERICAN LEAGUE SHARP PLAY OF THE DAY on Mariners -155 My money is on the Mariners to cash in a win at home against the Blue Jays on Friday. Seattle will have a massive edge on the mound in this one, as they send out the red-hot Marco Gonzales, who is quietly putting together an impressive 2018 season. Gonzales is 12-5 with a 3.15 ERA in 21 starts. He's also 5-1 with a 2.43 ERA in 10 home starts and has a 1.86 ERA and 0.828 WHIP over his last 3 starts. Toronto will counter with Ryan Borucki, who has an ugly 4.80 ERA and 1.933 WHIP in 3 road starts. Bet the Mariners -155! |

08-03-18 | Astros +103 v. Dodgers | 2-1 | Win | 103 | 18 h 25 m | Show | |
20* INTERLEAGUE SHARP PLAY OF THE DAY on Astros +103 My money is on the Astros to cash in a win on the road against the Dodgers on Friday. Verlander made two starts at LA in the World Series and allowed just 5 runs on 5 hits in 12 innings. He's been outstanding on the road this season, going 8-2 with a 1.81 ERA and 0.974 WHIP in 10 road starts. I just don't see Dodgers starter Alex Wood being able to step up and keep LA close enough to win this game. Bet the Astros +103! |

20* AL EAST GAME OF THE MONTH on Red Sox -107 My money is on the Red Sox at basically a pick'em at home against the rival Yankees. Boston currently has a 5.5-game lead over New York in the AL East and will be extremely motivated here to create even more separation. I know C.C. Sabathia has been great against the Red Sox of late, but a lot of his success has come at home. Sabathia has simply been a different pitcher on the road. he's 4-1 with a 2.69 ERA in 11 home starts and 2-3 with a 4.67 ERA in 8 road starts. Sabathia is also entering this contest in poor form, as he's posted a 6.45 ERA and 1.565 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Brian Johnson will start for Boston and he's quietly been really good for the best team in baseball. Johnson has a 1.80 ERA in 6 starts and is coming off a start at home against the Twins where he allowed just 4 hits over 5 2/3 shutout innings. Bet Boston -107! |

08-02-18 | Royals v. White Sox -135 | 4-6 | Win | 100 | 7 h 17 m | Show | |
20* AL CENTRAL GAME OF THE MONTH on White Sox -135 My money is on the White Sox to cash in a win at home against division rival Kansas City. A lot of people won't even think about playing this game because of how bad these two teams have been this season, but there's some legit value here. The Royals are starting Brad Keller, who has an awful 7.04 ERA in his last 3 starts. Keller has made 1 start against the White Sox this season and was lit up for 5 runs on 7 hits and 4 walks in just 2 2/3 innings. Reynaldo Lopez will take the mound for Chicago and he's been solid at home and owns a 3.90 ERA in 5 career starts against the Royals (4-1 team record). Bet the White Sox -135! |

08-01-18 | Astros v. Mariners +129 | 8-3 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 25 m | Show | |
20* AL WEST SHARP PLAY OF THE DAY on Mariners +129 My money is on the Mariners to cash in as decently priced home dog against the Astros. Seattle lost 5-2 on Tuesday to Houston. While the win was nice for the Astros, it doesn't cover up how poorly they have been playing. Houston had lost 5 straight prior to the victory and I look for them to go right back to their losing ways as they are still without two of their best players in Jose Altuve and Carlos Correa. The other big key here is how well Seattle starter Wade LeBlanc has been at home this season. LeBlanc is 6-0 with a 2.19 ERA and 0.863 WHIP in 9 home starts. Bet the Mariners +129! |

08-01-18 | Blue Jays +125 v. A's | 3-8 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 34 m | Show | |
20* AMERICAN LEAGUE PLAY OF THE WEEK on Blue Jays +125 My money is on the Blue Jays to cash in a win on the road against the A's. Toronto will be extra motivated here to avoid getting swept after losing the first two games of the series and have just the guy on the mound to get them a win. The Blue Jays will start Marcus Stroman, who has been in prime form of late. Stroman has a 2.89 ERA and 1.125 WHIP in his last 3 starts. He's really been good in his last two outings, giving up 1 run in 7 innings at home to the Orioles on 7/21 and 2 runs in 6 2/3 innings at Chicago (White Sox) on 7/27. Toronto is 25-12 in their last 37 after losing the first two games of a series. Bet the Blue Jays +125! |

20* AL MONEY LINE SHARP PLAY OF THE DAY on Blue Jays +160 My money is on the Blue Jays to cash in as a big road dog against the A's. Toronto will be extremely motivated here off an embarrassing 10-1 loss in the series opener against Oakland on Monday. The Blue Jays bats went cold in yesterday's loss, but had scored 28 runs over their previous 4 games. I look for them to get back on track against A's starter Trevor Cahill, who has struggled to the tune of a 5.65 ERA and 1.464 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Sam Gaviglio will toe the rubber for Toronto and he last started on 7/25. That's worth noting, as the Blue Jays are a perfect 5-0 in his last 5 starts when he's throwing on 5 days of rest. Bet Toronto +160! |

07-31-18 | Giants v. Padres +112 | 3-2 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 47 m | Show | |
20* NL WEST SHARP PLAY OF THE DAY on Padres +112 My money is on the Padres to snap their 6-game losing streak with a win over the Giants Tuesday afternoon. San Diego will turn to Clayton Richard and are 20-13 in his last 33 starts when he takes the mound with the team riding at least 4 game losing streak. San Francisco on the other hand is a mere 7-20 in their last 27 road games when listed as a favorite of -150 or less and 13-34 in their last 47 road games after a win. Bet the Padres +112! |

07-30-18 | Rockies v. Cardinals -134 | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 16 h 25 m | Show | |
20* National League Sharp Play of the Day on Cardinals -134 My money is on St Louis to cash in a win at home against the Rockies. Cardinals lost the series finale against the Cubs on Sunday, but did take 2 of 3 against their NL Central rivals. Coming off a loss has been a great time to back St Louis of late, as they are 5-1 in their last 6 following a loss. Colorado will send out lefty Tyler Anderson and the Cardinals are 17-8 in their last 25 home games vs a left-handed starter. St Louis will counter with Carlos Martinez, who has a strong 2.68 ERA in 9 home starts this season. Martinez has been up and down, but has pitched well against the top teams, as the Cardinals have won 7 of his last 10 starts vs a team with a winning record. Give me St Louis -134! |

07-29-18 | Mariners +110 v. Angels | 8-5 | Win | 110 | 11 h 8 m | Show | |
20* AL Underdog Play of the Day on Mariners +110 My money is on the Mariners to cash in a win on the road as a dog against the Angels. Seattle is going to be extremely motivated here after dropping the first two games of the series against LA and have just the guy on the mound to get them back on track. The Mariners will give the rock to Marco Gonzales, who is 11-5 with a 3.16 ERA in 20 starts. Gonzales also comes in with a red-hot 1.40 ERA and 0.724 WHIP in his last 3 starts, all 3 of which the Mariners have won. Gonzales has already faced the Angels twice in the month of July and was dominant in both outings, allowing just 1 run on 7 hits in 13 innings over the two outings. Bet the Mariners +110! |

20* MLB Interleague Play of the Day on A's +118 My money is on the A's to cash in a win against the Rockies on Sunday. Oakland is going to be extremely motivated here to avoid getting swept after dropping the first two games of the series. The A's are also due for a big day at the plate after scoring just 2 runs combined in the first two games. They should have no problem getting their offense going against Colorado starter German Marquez, who is 3-5 with a 7.31 ERA and 1.854 WHIP in 10 home starts. Oakland will counter with Frankie Montas, who has a 3.54 ERA in 9 starts and is 3-0 with a 3.14 ERA in 5 road outings. Bet the A's +118! |

07-28-18 | Phillies -118 v. Reds | 2-6 | Loss | -118 | 15 h 55 m | Show | |
20* NL East Game of the Week on Phillies -118 My money is on the Phillies to cash in a win on the road against the Reds in Saturday's MLB action. Philadelphia lost 6-4 on Friday, but continued to produce at the plate. The Phillies have scored at least 5 runs in 7 of their last 9 games. I think they easily top that mark in this one, as the Reds send out Matt Harvey, who has a 4.85 ERA in 17 starts overall and a 6.90 ERA in his last 3 outings. His most recent start was one to forget, as he gave up 8 runs in 3 2/3 innings. Harvey will be up against Vincent Velasquez, who hasn't allowed a run in two straight starts. Velasquez has only given up 4 hits during this stretch, which tells you just how well he's throwing the ball. I expect more of the same in this one. Bet the Phillies -118! |

20* -Brewers/Giants- MLB SHARP PLAY on Giants -127 My money is on San Francisco to cash in a win at home against the Brewers on Friday. This is a great price to back the Giants on their home field with their ace Madison Bumgarner on the mound. Bumgarner has been sensational at home this season, going 3-1 with a 1.95 ERA and 0.990 WHIP in 5 starts. He's also 7-2 with a 2.25 ERA and 1.059 WHIP in 10 career starts against the Brewers.

20* -Mariners/Angels- MLB SHARP PLAY on Mariners +135 My money is on Seattle to cash in as a big road dog against the Angels on Friday. The Mariners will send out Wade LeBlanc, who is 2-0 with a 2.25 ERA in 2 career starts against LA, both of which have come this season. Seattle has won 18 of LeBlanc's last 23 starts and are 7-1 in his last 8 starts during game 1 of a series. Angels won 12-8 over the White Sox on Thursday, but are just 1-6 in their last 7 after scoring 5+ runs. LA is also 8-20 in their last 28 vs a starter with a WHIP less than 1.15 and 6-20 in their last 26 vs a left-handed starter. Bet the Mariners +135! |

20* -Twins/Red Sox- MLB SHARP PLAY on Red Sox -145 My money is on Boston to cash in a win at home against the Twins on Thursday. The Red Sox had their game yesterday with Baltimore postponed after they took a 5-0 lead in the second. Boston wasn't happy with the game getting called and I look for them to take out their frustration here against Minnesota. Boston had scored 20 runs in their previous 3 games and were well on their way to another big night, so expect the offense to stay hot. The Twins will have to go up against the red-hot Brian Johnson, who has a 2.51 ERA in his last 3 starts and a 2.22 ERA in 5 starts overall. Bet Boston -145! |

20* -Mets/Pirates- MLB SHARP PLAY on Pirates -140 My money is on the Pirates to return right back to their winning ways and cash in a win at home against the Mets. Pittsburgh had their 11-game winning streak snapped in a 4-0 loss to the Indians on Wednesday, but should bounce back here with a comfortable win. Even after getting shutout yesterday the Pirates still come in averaging 7.1 runs with a .315 average over their last 7 games. Mets will send out Steven Matz, who was awful in his first start back from the All-Star break, giving up 5 runs on 9 hits in 5 innings at NYY. Pirates will send out Nick Kingham, who is 3-1 with a 2.90 ERA in 5 home starts and 3-0 with a 2.89 ERA in his last 3 starts. Bet Pittsburgh -140! |

20* -Tigers/Royals- MLB SHARP PLAY on Tigers +103 My money is on Detroit to cash in a win at Kansas City. The Tigers came up short in their comeback bid, falling 4-5 on Tuesday, but are in a prime spot to bounce back. Detroit will send out Matt Boyd, who is coming off a very strong outing at home against the Red Sox, where he held a potent Boston offense to just 1 run on 3 hits in 5 innings. Kansas City will counter with Danny Duffy, who is just 1-4 with a 5.89 ERA and 1.557 WHIP in 8 home starts. Duffy also has a not so great 4.31 ERA and 1.331 WHIP in 20 career starts against Detroit.

20* -Nationals/Brewers- MLB SHARP PLAY on Nationals +111 My money is on the Nationals to cash in a win at Milwaukee and avoid getting swept in this 3-game series against the Brewers. Washington has thrived in this spot, as they are 14-5 in their last 19 tries after losing the first two games of a series. The Nationals will send out Tanner Roark, who is 3-1 with a 2.86 ERA and 1.125 WHIP in 5 career starts against the Brewers. Freddy Peralta will take the mound for Milwaukee and he's coming off a poor start at Miami and has a 4.29 ERA and 1.363 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Bet the Nationals +111! |

20* -Astros/Rockies- MLB SHARP PLAY on Astros -155 My money is on Houston to cash in a win at Colorado on Tuesday. The Astros are one of the best teams in the game and are going to be itching to get back on the field after getting embarrassed in a 14-5 loss at the Angels on Sunday. Houston has just the guy on the mound to get them back on track. The Astros will send out Gerrit Cole, who is 10-2 with a 2.52 ERA and 0.982 WHIP in 20 starts. He's also 6-1 with a 2.53 ERA in 10 road starts. Houston has won 16 of his 20 starts this season. Colorado's Tyler Anderson has pitched well of late, but the Rockies are just 3-7 in his 10 home starts this season. Bet the Astros -155! |

20* -Tigers/Royals- MLB SHARP PLAY on Tigers -105 My money is on Detroit to cash in a win at Kansas City on Tuesday. The Tigers will send out the red-hot Jordan Zimmermann, who has a 2.49 ERA and 0.969 WHIP in his last 3 starts. It's not just been a great recent stretch, as Zimmermann is 4-1 with a 3.86 ERA in 12 starts overall. The even bigger key here is how Zimmermann has owned the Royals. He's 4-0 with a 1.36 ERA and 0.958 WHIP in 6 career starts against them. It also doesn't hurt that KC is countering with Burch Smith, who has a 10.13 ERA and 2.064 WHIP over his first two starts of 2018. Bet the Tigers -105! |
