7 Unit Play.  Take #961 New York -120 over Toronto (7:07p.m., Wednesday, July 2 MLB.tv) I like the Yankees lineup now that everyone is back and feel that they will win tonight with a chance for the split tomorrow. Will Warren has pitched well of late, and his team has won 8 of his last 10 starts. He had a 2.86 E.R.A. during the month of June and is coming off a 5 inning, no runs start last time out. Toronto has some injuries to a couple of starters, and they just never seem to handle prosperity well. They never win the division and 2025 should be no different. The Yankees will even up the season series at 3-3 with a strong showing tonight North of the Border.

2 Unit Play. Take #907 Over 9 in San Francisco @ Arizona (9:40p.m., Tuesday, July 1 MLB.tv) At least one of these pitchers is going to get hit hard in this game. Zac Gallen has yet to find his form this year and has been pounded over his last 4 starts giving up 20 earned runs during this span. Hayden Birdsong has not been much better giving up 15 earned runs in his last 3 starts. We will not worry about who wins this game and instead just collect with the over.

2 Unit Play. Take #956 Arizona over San Francisco (9:40p.m., Monday, June 30 MLB.tv) Arizona embarrassed themselves over the weekend getting swept by the Marlins at Chase Field. They now have lost 4 straight games and find themselves under .500. Look for them to right the ship against the Giants, a team that is also struggling having lost 2 of 3 to Chicago over the weekend. This is a solid pitching matchup, but the difference will be the bats of Arizona.

7 Unit Play. Take #621 New York (pk) over Atlanta (3p.m., Sunday, June 29 ESPN3) These are two of the top teams in the league for 2025, but the Liberty have owned this series winning 8 of the last 9 meetings. New York has lost 3 of their last 4 games and got down big on Friday and were never in the game against Phoenix. Atlanta has lost 2 straight games and that included an overtime game on Friday against Minnesota. That likely took a lot out of them and I expect them to be flat for this game on Sunday. The Dream have really beaten up on bad teams this season to achieve their record and the Liberty would not fit into that bill. They are the defending champions and I see them bouncing back on Sunday, as they do not want Minnesota to get too far ahead for the best overall record.

3 Unit Play. Take #908 Milwaukee (-1.5 RL) -125 over Colorado (2:10p.m., Sunday, June 29 MLB.tv) The Brewers have beaten the Rockies in four of five games this season. This is the last time these two teams will meet and look for Milwaukee to win 5 out of 6 against them. All 4 victories Milwaukee has had this season have come by at least 4 runs and today should be no different. Colorado is 10-33 this season on the road.

2 Unit Play. Take #958 Milwaukee (-1.5 RL) -125 over Colorado (4:10p.m., Saturday, June 28 MLB.tv) One of these teams in the Colorado Rockies, with their stellar 18-64 record on the season. That includes a 10-32 record on the road and I see them losing this game on the road as well this afternoon at American Family Field. All 3 of Milwaukee’s wins this season against Colorado have come by at least 4 runs.

7 Unit Play. Take #616 Phoenix -1.5 over New York (10p.m., Friday, June 27 ION) The line has shifted to towards the Mercury, as they will enter this home game having won 5 straight games. One of those wins came against the Liberty, a team that will enter this game having lost 3 of their last 4 games. Then throw in the fact that Jonquel Jones is out for this game and that is a major void for New York going forward in games. Phoenix is 6-2 at home this season and 9-6 ATS overall. They have beaten New York two of the last three games and tonight they have the better talent in this game.

2 Unit Play. Take #929 Washington +140 over Los Angeles (9:38p.m., Friday, June 27 MLB.tv) Just do not believe that Los Angeles deserves to be this big of a favorite against anyone in the league outside of Colorado or Chicago. Washington has a decent starting pitcher on the mound tonight in Jake Irvin and they were pretty competitive the last week against strong teams in the Dodgers and Padres. I think they can win this game and we will collect at a nice underdog price.

7-unit Play. Take #703 Montreal Alouettes -2 over Hamilton Tiger-Cats (Friday, June 27th, 7:30 p.m. CFL+)

Hamilton’s defense has been a turnstile through two games, surrendering a CFL-worst 435 yards per game and 33 points per contest. The front seven has been especially soft, allowing 5.6 yards per carry and failing to generate consistent pressure. That’s a problem against a Montreal offense that’s been humming, even with a quarterback change. Davis Alexander left the last game with a hamstring injury, but veteran McLeod Bethel-Thompson stepped in—a two-time East All-Star who looked sharp. Whoever steps behind center will be running an offense averaging 35 points per game and featuring one of the league’s most efficient ground attacks, led by Sean Thomas Erlington (5.0 YPC) and a physical O-line that’s controlled the trenches all season.

Hamilton’s offense hasn’t been able to mask its defensive issues. Bo Levi Mitchell is putting up volume and leads the league with 320 passing yards per game, but the run game is non-existent—just 49 yards per game, dead last in the CFL. That one-dimensionality has made them easy to scheme against, especially with a shaky offensive line that’s allowed too many clean looks for opposing pass rushers. Montreal’s defense, which has forced 10 turnovers and held opponents to 18.7 points per game, should feast.

Despite Montreal’s dominance on both sides of the ball, the line has quietly shifted from -2.5 to -2, suggesting some market interest in the home dog. Hamilton is coming off a bye and playing at Tim Hortons Field, where they’ve historically been more competitive, except against Montreal, who have won and covered four out of their last five trips to Hamilton. Montreal’s edge in the trenches and turnover margin make them the more trustworthy side until proven otherwise.

3 Unit Play. Take #605 Over in Los Angeles @ Indiana (7p.m., Thursday, June 26 Prime) Indiana needs to get back on track offensively and expect this to be the night they score close to 90 points. The DeWanna Bonner drama is over now and that should help this team get back to their scoring ways on offense. The last two games these two teams have played have gone over the posted total and tonight should be no different. Caitlin Clark is out for this game but I see the tempo still being fast.

2 Unit Play. Take #964 Detroit over the Athletics (1:10p.m., Saturday, June 26 MLB.tv) Detroit is just a better all-around team than Sacramento. This is the rubber game of this series and Detroit does not want to lose it at home. They lost last night 3-0 and expect them to bounce back in a big way on Thursday.

2 Unit Play. Take #603 Connecticut over Las Vegas (10p.m., Wednesday, June 25 NBA TV) This is just too many points to be giving in a regular season WNBA game. This is a get-well game for Las Vegas, but they are not the same team they have been the last 3 years. I see this being a 12-15 point game and we will grab this big number. The Aces have Wilson back, but they have lost 5 of their last 7 games straight-up.

7 Unit Play. Take #902 Milwaukee over Pittsburgh (2:10p.m., Wednesday, June 25 MLB.tv) This is a matchup of young pitchers that have been outstanding in their careers thus far. I feel the Brewers have the better all-around team and expect their bats to grind out a couple of keys hits against Paul Skenes. The Pirates do not give Skenes much run support, as he has not recorded a victory since 5/28. Jack Misiorowski has been outstanding in his first two starts this season, throwing 11 innings and allowed just two earned runs. He is averaging a strikeout per inning, and I feel he will give us a strong outing on Wednesday. But this play comes down to Milwaukee having a better offense and bullpen compared to Pittsburgh. The Pirates are just 12-28 on the road this season and the Brewers do not want to lose a series to them at American Family Field. A win today will give them the lead in the season series, and this is something Milwaukee needs in their pursuit of the Cubs.

2 Unit Play. Take #622 Dallas over Atlanta (8p.m., Tuesday, June 24 League Pass) Atlanta struggled to put away Chicago (until the last minute) on Sunday and I do not see them blowing out the Wings on the road. Dallas has talent and size and sooner or later they will put it together to become a competent team. Atlanta has played a super easy schedule thus far and I believe they are not as good as their record indicates.

2 Unit Play. Take #953 Over in Pittsburgh @ Milwaukee (7:40p.m., Tuesday, June 24 MLB.tv) Just do not see either pitcher being dominate in this game and thus we will side with the over. Andrew Heaney has been hit hard in his last two starts giving up 10 earned runs and he has given up home runs in 4 of his last 5 starts. 9 runs were scored last night and that is what we expect to happen tonight as well. We will not worry about if the Brewers can cover this high money line number and instead just focus on the total.

3 Unit Play. Take #914 Los Angeles over Boston (9:38p.m., Monday, June 23 MLB.tv) The Red Sox are coming off an emotional series against San Francisco over the weekend facing their former teammate. Just do not believe Walker Buehler should ever be favored in a road game and thus we will side with the Halos at home on Monday night.

3 Unit Play. Take #955 Arizona (-1.5 RL) over Colorado (3:10p.m., Sunday, June 20 MLB.tv) We have hit the first two games of series and we will look for a run line sweep on Sunday. The scoring will likely pick up in this game and Arizona has a strong lineup from top to bottom. I look for them to hit Antonio Senzatela hard in this game, as he has given up 113 hits in just 71 innings of work.

2 Unit Play. Take #611 Chicago over Atlanta (3p.m., Sunday, June 22 ESPN3) Chicago could not have started any worse yesterday but did play better in the fourth quarter and I look for that to carry over into this game. Getting this many points is a lot and expect Atlanta to just go through the motions and win this game by 10-12 points.

3 Unit Play. Take #907 Arizona (-1.5 RL) over Colorado (9:10p.m., Saturday, June 21 MLB.tv) We faded the Rockies on Friday for our top play, and we will do so again on Saturday. The Diamondbacks have had two aces forever and one threw last night and the other one is throwing tonight. Expect another blowout high scoring victory for the Snakes.

7-unit Play: Take #722 Calgary Stampeders -3 over Ottawa Redblacks (Saturday, June 21st 4:00 p.m. CBS Sports Network)

Ottawa is reeling right now. The Redblacks' stop unit hasn't done much stopping, allowing a league-high 35 points per game. Ottawa's injury report is littered with players from both sides of the ball, most notably being starting QB Dru Brown. His replacement, QB Matthew Shiltz, was benched for QB Dustin Crum last week after Shiltz tossed 3 picks in a 39-18 loss to Montreal. Crum is prone to interceptions, with 14 picks in his CFL career (3.2%) against just 10 touchdown passes (2.3%). He is, however, a threat to run the ball, as he has averaged 6.5 yards a carry in his 921 career yards and 18 rushing touchdowns. It's never ideal for your quarterback to have more rushing than passing touchdowns unless you're running a triple-option offense.

6 Unit Play. Take #608 Chicago over Phoenix (1p.m., Saturday, June 21 ABC) Just do not believe Phoenix is one of the elite team that should be good enough to lay this many points on the road. The Mercury have played twice as many home games than road games and the last 10 games between these two teams is split 5-5 (5-5 ATS as well). This was a 5 point game when these teams met earlier this season and I feel this game will go down to the wire as well.

3 Unit Play. Take #606 Las Vegas over Seattle (10p.m., Friday, June 20 ION) The Aces need to dig deep to not let their season slip away. The season series is 1-1 with both games being in Seattle, but Las Vegas has won 8 of the last 10 games. Getting them as an underdog is too good to pass up.

7 Unit Play. Take #957 Arizona (-1.5 RL) over Colorado (8:40p.m., Friday, June 20 MLB.tv) Getting Arizona at this price on the run line against the worst team in baseball is too good to pass up. Austin Gomber is just getting started this season but his career numbers are nothing are nothing special. Colorado is just 7-27 at home this season and they are playing a team that is desperate for a sweep to keep pace in the competitive NL West. Arizona won yesterday to salvage a game against Toronto, and I look for this to be a getwell game for Zac Gallen. He has been bad this season but this stuff is still good and facing this light hitting lineup should get him back on track. His numbers in the 3 previous years are just too good to ignore. Arizona is winning the season series with Colorado and the Rockies’ only one against them was a fluke game that ended 14-12.  The Diamondbacks will have their bats ready to go in a very hitter friendly ballpark.

3 Unit Play. Take #629 Over 165 in Indiana @ Golden State (10p.m., Thursday, June 19 Prime Video) We will follow the line movement in this total and release a play on the over. It has jumped a couple of points this morning and feel Golden State is a better offensive team that most people predicted.

3-Unit Play: Take #717 Montreal Alouettes -6.5 over Edmonton Elks (Thursday, June 19th, 9:00 p.m. EST) 

It's tempting to take a home dog getting almost a touchdown at home, with a week to prepare. Unfortunately, there aren't enough weeks in a month to help Edmonton right now. It's difficult to see what is worse, the Als' punchless offense, or their powerless defense. One of QB Tre Ford's explosive weapons, WR Arkell Smith, has seen limited practice time from a concussion suffered last week and is questionable. Montreal is 4-1 SU/ATS in its last 5 visits to Commonwealth Stadium. All signs point to them adding another victory on both sides of that tally.

2 Unit Play. Take #916 Tampa Bay -130 over Baltimore (7:35p.m., Thursday, June 19 MLB.tv) The Orioles have been one of the most disappointing teams in the league for 2025. They cannot pitch and gave up a ton of runs to Tampa Bay last night. I do not have confidence that Charlie Morton will be able to turn the tide on Thursday, as Tampa Bay will take 3 of 4 in this series.

6 Unit Play. Take #964 New York (-1.5 RL) over Los Angeles (7:05p.m., Wednesday, June 18 MLB.tv) Just refuse to believe that the Yankees will not hit one of these bad starting pitchers that the Halos are sending out. Jack Kochanowicz has a 1.59 WHIP and has given up 81 hits in just over 71 innings of work. He gives up home runs and does not have a good strikeout – to walk ratio. The Yankees have a strong lineup, and it is only a matter of time before the get their bats going. Their pitching has been solid for the most part, they just cannot get a big hit to break out of this losing streak.

3 Unit Play. Take #625 Over in Phoenix @ Connecticut (7p.m., Wednesday, June 18 League Pass) The line has gone up this morning and thus the smart money lies on the over. The Sun gave up 88 points last night and if they give up that many on Wednesday, we should be in good shape to hit with the over. The last two games these two teams played have gone over the posted total.

3 Unit Play. Take #917 Over in Boston @ Seattle (9:40p.m., Tuesday, June 17 MLB.tv) Just do not have any confidence in Walker Buehler. He has a 5.01 E.R.A. and given up 11 home runs this season. He will get it hard in this game and if Boston wants to win it they will need to score at least 5 runs in this game.

We don’t think there will be any Game 7 this year between these two teams and we think Florida will close this thing out at home tonight. This Panthers team has been the best team in the postseason by far, and they really showed the ability to raise their level of play once the playoffs hit after it looked like this may be a year that they would flame out early. Edmonton’s defense and goaltending has no answer for this team, and we just don’t think the Oilers can win this one in either a low scoring game or a shootout. Florida knows they have their chance at glory tonight and they don’t want to return to Edmonton, so we think this experienced team will treat this like a Game 7 tonight.

4 Unit Play. Take #619 Over in Washington @ Chicago (8p.m., Tuesday, June 17 League Pass) This is a law of averages play with the Sky, as they have gone under the posted total 4 straight games. Washington laid an egg last time out and I see them focusing on offense much more in this game as well.

The Thunder have seemingly taken over momentum of this series but this is still too many points. OKC has been a lousy ATS pick this playoffs after being one of the best ATS teams in history in the regular season, and the oddsmakers are shading their lines as a result. We truly believe that Indiana is taking this series one game at a time and playing without a ton of pressure as they were not even supposed to be here but OKC has more pressure as title favorites for most of the season. We expect a close game here!

3 Unit Play. Take #958 New York (-1.5 RL) +105 over Los Angeles (7:05p.m., Monday, June 16 MLB.tv) The Yankees got swept by the Red Sox over the weekend and then saw Boston trade away their best hitter. Look for New York to get back on track Monday against an inferior opponent that they should be able to hit hard. Clarke Schmidt has better numbers this season than Jose Soriano and I see New York breaking out of their offensive funk in a big way.

5 Unit Play. Take #610 Washington +4 over Atlanta (2p.m., Sunday, June 15 CBS Sports Network) Atlanta seems to play to their level of competition and thus I see this game going down to the wire. The Mystics are 4-6 on the season and that is surprisingly good as they are in a rebuild. They did beat the Dream in the first game of the season and I see them taking this game down to the wire.

3 Unit Play. Take #915 New York (-1.5 RL) -105 over Boston (1:35p.m., Sunday, June 15 MLB.tv) Just do not feel the Yankees will get swept in Boston. They have their best pitcher on the mound in Max Fried, as he is 9-1 on the year with a 1.84 E.R.A. He also has 81 strikeouts and a WHIP of 0.93. Brayan Bello has given up 7 runs in his last two starts and those type of numbers will likely not keep his team in the lead today. New York is due for an offensive performance and it will happen on Sunday.

4 Unit Play. Take #959 Over in San Diego @ Arizona (7:15p.m., Saturday, June 14 FOX) The Snakes have scored 28 runs in their last 4 games and if they hit the 7 run mark on Saturday we will be in good position to cash this ticket. Zac Gallen has not been very good of late giving up 23 runs in his last 5 starts. We will not worry about who wins this game and just collect with the over.

7-unit Play: Take 713 the Calgary Stampeders PK over Toronto Argonauts (Saturday, June 14th, 4:00 p.m. CBSSN)

In their season opener, the Toronto Argonauts struggled, falling 28-10 to Montreal with a league-low 10 points and 276 yards of total offense. Free agency hit their defense hard, with the loss of three defensive linemen, and it showed as they allowed 163 rushing yards. Roster turnover also crippled the offense, with RB Ka'Deem Carey and QB Cameron Dukes released just a week before the season. Backup QB Nick Arbuckle was mediocre, completing 20 of 32 passes (62.5%) for 273 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. Meanwhile, Calgary's Vernon Adams, a significant upgrade over the turnover-prone Jake Maier, led the Stampeders to a 38-26 win over Hamilton. Adams was effective, generating 24 first downs and 428 yards of total offense. With Toronto's overhauled defensive front, Calgary should dominate the run game, opening up play-action passes. The Stamps' defense, average in their win against Hamilton, is likely to handle Toronto's weakened offense. Calgary has dominated this series for 12 years, boasting a 16-4 SU and 13-6-1 ATS record, including 7-3 SU and 7-2-1 ATS in their last 10 road games against the Argonauts. Toronto's future may brighten, but not with Arbuckle under center.

2 Unit Play. Take #603 Over 170.5 in New York @ Indiana (3p.m., Saturday, June 14 ABC) The Fever have their MVP back for this game and expect them to light up the scoreboard on Saturday. This should be a high scoring game and we will not worry about if the Liberty can cover this number and instead just focus on the over. Three of the last four meetings between these teams has cover over the posted number.

We are going to go with the Pacers again. Indiana continues to be underrated by the oddsmakers despite the best overall performance in the postseason so far. The Thunder are 8-12 ATS in the playoffs and they continue to get too much respect from the oddsmakers. The Pacers aren’t a team that is going to take a game off, and they know they need to win this important Game 4, then they will have three chances to close out the series. Not sure if they will win outright, but we expect a close game.

4-unit Play: Take #711 Montreal Alouettes -5 over Ottawa Redblacks (Friday, June 13th, 7:30 p.m. CFL+)

The Ottawa Redblacks are reeling after a season-opening loss to the Saskatchewan Roughriders and a devastating hip injury to quarterback Dru Brown, sidelining him for their Week 2 clash against the Montreal Alouettes. Montreal, who has dominated this matchup with eight straight wins over Ottawa—six by 7+ points—and 10 consecutive victories at TD Place, opened as a slight underdog but saw the betting line shift sharply in their favor after Brown's injury was announced. With back-up Matt Shiltz stepping in for Ottawa, the Redblacks face an uphill battle against a confident Alouettes squad led by undefeated starter Davis Alexander (5-0), who threw 19-of-26 in Week 1, supported by a robust 163-yard rushing attack.

The Alouettes' offense, which scored 6+ points per quarter against Toronto, is clicking early. At the same time, their defense, fresh off two interceptions against Nick Arbuckle, is poised to exploit Ottawa's reshuffled playbook and backup QB. Montreal has enjoyed its yearly trek to Ottawa, boasting an astounding 10-0 SU and 8-2 ATS record, with its last loss coming at the home of its division rival in 2018. Ottawa's 413 receiving yards in Week 1 may not translate against Montreal's playmakers, especially with the Redblacks' dismal 2-8 ATS record in their last 10 games. With Montreal's balanced game plan and Ottawa's mounting challenges, the Alouettes are primed to extend their dominance in this lopsided rivalry.

4 Unit Play. Take #632 Under 158.5 in Chicago @ Atlanta (7:30p.m., Friday, June 13 ION) The Sky are a terrible team and they really have trouble scoring points. They have played a little better defense of late and look for that to hold true again on Friday. The Sky have stayed under the posted total in two straight games.

7 Unit Play. Take #915 Over 8.5 in New York @ Boston (7:10p.m., Friday, June 13 MLBN) All three games went over the posted total last week when these two teams met at Yankee Stadium. Now we have a pair of left handed pitchers facing the green monster and I expect a bunch of runs to be scored in this game. At least one of these pitchers is going to get hit hard in this game. These same two pitchers met last Saturday and 17 total runs were scored.

The under should have hit last game. We had a big play there and we consider it a bad beat because of the insane amount of penalty minutes. The Oilers especially lost their composure and we think they will be very disciplined here. We think this will be the lowest scoring game of the series so far.

2 Unit Play. Take #953 San Francisco (-1.5 RL) -140 over Colorado (3:10p.m., Thursday, June 12 MLB.tv) The Giants are due for a dominating game from start to finish against one of the worst teams in the history of the league. San Francisco should have lost the first two games of this series, but late rallies put them on top. They have beaten the Rockies five straight games and only one of those wins has come by one run. San Francisco is fattening up their record and they will sweep Colorado this afternoon.

3 Unit Play. Take #626 Seattle over Minnesota (10p.m., Wednesday, June 11 League Pass) Seattle will knock off Minnesota from the unbeaten list tonight at Climate Pledge Arena. Skylar Diggins scored 26 points last time out and expect another big performance from her on Wednesday. These teams met earlier this season in Minneapolis and it was just a 5-point game. I see this one going down to the wire as well with the Strom covering another meeting.

The Thunder have not been good ATS in this postseason after being one of the top ATS teams of history in the regular season. But the playoffs is a different game and opponents have risen up their level of game and we think the Pacers have a great chance to keep home court advantage in this series and win outright. Each game is its own entity, so the Pacers have the ability to put Game 2 behind them and play much better here, as we have seen in the postseason when they have before faced adversity.

3 Unit Play. Take #906 Over 7.5 in Atlanta @ Milwaukee (2:10p.m., Wednesday, June 11 MLB.tv) The under hit last night and we look for a higher scoring game on getaway day @ American Family Field. Chad Patrick will not go long in this game against this Atlanta lineup featuring some pop from the left hand side of the plate. Spencer Schwellenbach got hit hard in his last game and I see him struggling again on Wednesday. We will not worry about who wins this game and just collect with the over. 

7 Unit Play. Take #623 Over 165 in Chicago @ New York (8p.m., Tuesday, June 10 ESPN) The Sky have a terrible defense this year and have given up at least 90 points in 5 of their 7 games this season. They gave up 99 points to New York earlier this season and I see the Liberty getting close to the mark on Tuesday. The Sky have gone over the posted total in 5 of their 7 games this season. The Liberty are 4-4 this season on totals but they did go over the posted total in their last games and I see them scoring a ton of points tonight.

3 Unit Play. Take #963 Detroit +115 over Baltimore (6:35p.m., Tuesday, June 10 MLB.tv) Not sure why the best team in the American League is an underdog tonight against a 26-38 Baltimore team. The Orioles have played better of late, but I just do not trust their pitching and at some point in this game they will implode.

2 Unit Play. Take #619 Golden State over Los Angeles (10p.m., Monday, June 9 League Pass) The Sparks just are not good enough to be laying this many points against any team in the league. Kelsey Plum cannot carry a team, and Golden State has been sneaky good for most of the season. The Valkyries pounded the Aces over the weekend, and I feel that they can take this game down to the wire as well on Monday.

3 Unit Play. Take #907 Los Angeles over San Diego (9:40p.m., Monday, June 9 MLB.tv) This is a matchup of the top two teams in the NL West, and we expect the Dodgers to take care of business on the road. This is a pitcher friendly ballpark and Dustin May is a strikeout – fly ball pitcher that should be able to have success tonight. Nick Pivetta got hit hard in his last game and I see him struggling against this Dodgers lineup on Monday.

We wanted to see how Game 2 played out before making our move on the under after a big play winner on the over for Game 1. And we thought Game 2 might go slightly over and that was the case, as this game was 4-3 against a 6.5 total when Edmonton tied it up with a goal as time almost ran out. Then these teams went around 28 minutes of OT without scoring again. We said in our Game 1 writeup that these teams will start to tighten up on defense, and we think that will be the case here for Game 3. Game 3 is always a crucial one in any 7-Game series and Florida has a chance to really move ahead in the series, while Edmonton can regain home ice advantage. It’s telling that the oddsmakers added juice to the under after the first two games went over, as they are protecting against sharp action on the under. We expect to see the best defensive games of the series from both teams.

2 Unit Play. Take #969 Kansas City -120 over Chicago (2:10p.m., Sunday, June 7 MLB.tv) The Royals do not want to get swept by the White Sox as they battle for position in the AL Central. They have scored only 3 runs in the first two games of this series but I look for that to change on Sunday. Despite those two setbacks, KC has beaten Chicago 4 of the 6 games this season.

7 Unit Play. Take #920 New York -105 over Boston (7:35p.m., Saturday, June 7 FOX) We used Crochet on Sunday as our 8 and now we will turn the tide and fade him. First off, he is facing a much better pitcher on Saturday in Ryan Yarbrough, who actually has a better WHIP rate. He is left-handed and that will negate the best two hitters for Boston, as Alex Bregman is still out with injury. The Braves had Crochet on the ropes Sunday but could not cash it in, something the Yankees will do on Saturday night. Boston has lost 3 of the last 4 starts by Crochet and this team is just floundering at the moment heading into this rivalry series. They got blown out on Friday and they have a coach on the hot seat. I think they sell off if things do not go well in this series.

3 Unit Play. Take #957 Over 8.5 in Los Angeles @ St. Louis (8:15p.m., Friday, June 6 MLB.tv) Just feel at least one of these starting pitchers is going to get hit hard. Both of these teams have strong offenses and the Cardinals are coming off a double header yesterday. We will not worry about who wins this game and instead just focus on the over.

6 Unit Play. Take #704 Montreal -5 over Toronto (7:30p.m., Friday, June 6 CFL+) Montreal is favored over the defending champions and it is with good reason. They are playing at home and the Argonauts had their team gutted, especially on defense. Montreal went 6-1 at Memorial Stadium in 2024 and they should challenge for the No. 1 seed this season in the East. The Alouettes had a top defense in the league and they are riding a quarterback that finished 4-0 last season as a starter. QB Nick Arbuckle for Toronto is not a top quarterback in the league at this point. Toronto is still the defending champion and thus the line is lower than what it should be.

4 Unit Play. Take #605 Over 158 in Atlanta @ Connecticut (7:30p.m., Friday, June 6 ION) Not too often you find a total this low in the WNBA, but feel Connecticut will play much better tonight than they did in the first meeting. The Dream have a ton of offensive firepower and have gone over the posted total in 4 of their 7 games this season. I look for them to come close to 90 points in this game and that should put us in good shape to collect with the over.

7 Unit Play. Take #604 Phoenix -6.5 over Golden State (10p.m., Thursday, June 5 League Pass) The Valkyries have held their own thus far in 2025, but they are coming off three straight games against WNBA Finals teams and that will take it toll on them for this game. The Mercury are 5-3 on the season and they have beaten the bad teams in the league. They have just two losses to Minnesota and one loss to Seattle on the year. They are due for a double digit no sweat type of game and I feel it will come tonight. Golden State is not a strong offensive team ranking in the bottom in field goal percentage and that is not a recipe for success when playing on the road.

4-unit Play: Take #702 Saskatchewan Roughriders -3 vs. Ottawa Redblacks (Thursday, June 5th, 9:00 p.m. EST)

Saskatchewan hasn't been a very hospitable host to Ottawa in the last decade, going 7-3 SU/ 6-4 ATS in the past 10 games in Regina. The Roughriders return the league-leading passer from last season, Trevor Harris, with a 108.4 QB rating. A.J. Ouellette, a 1,000-yard rusher two seasons ago, was limited to just 558 yards in 8 games in his first season with the Roughriders, and he looks to be healthy. Ottawa is all-in with the promising but inconsistent QB Dru Brown, as Jeremiah Masoli was part of the CFL's quarterback carousel and is now with the BC Lions. Brown had the second-lowest completion percentage (67.2%) and QB rating (97.6) among the starting QBs from a year ago. He only had three starts before his 15 last season, so perhaps his second year in Ottawa will be more productive. However, we don't believe it's going to start tonight on the road in Regina. 

Just can’t pass up this number for Indiana with the way they have played this postseason. We had this line handicapped around 6.5 and would take the Thunder at that number, but this one is on the other side of the key NBA betting number of 7 (the point the losing team stops fouling at the end of the game), so nice value here in our opinion.

7 Unit Play. Take #908 Washington (+1.5 RL) -125 over Chicago (6:45p.m., Thursday, June 5 MLB.tv) The Nationals will send Jake Irvin to the mound on Thursday night, and he has been solid at home this season allowing just 13 runs in 36 innings of work (3.16 E.R.A.). Last time out at home he threw 8 shutout innings against San Francisco allowing just 3 hits. He will likely face an opener in veteran Drew Pomeranz, and I do not expect much from him from this start. The Cubs are not as strong on the road and with a win tonight, the Nationals came move to .500 at home this season. I expect a low scoring game and thus we will side with the run line with this game likely going down to the wire.

3 Unit Play. Take #952 Miami over Colorado (12:10p.m., Wednesday, June 4 MLB.tv) The Rockies won their first series of the year but I do not see them sweeping the Marlins on the road. Both of these pitchers have been hit hard this season, but Kyle Freeland is 0-8 on the year. Colorado is 5-28 on the road this year.

4 Unit Play. Take #901 Over in Colorado @ Miami (6:40p.m., Tuesday, June 3 MLB.tv) At least one of these pitchers is going to get hit hard on Tuesday night. Sandy Alcantara not been one of the worst pitchers in the league this year and has given up at least 4 earned runs in six straight starts. The Rockies won last night and I see them scoring at least 5 runs in this game against the Fish.

2 Unit Play. Take #954 Cincinnati over Milwaukee (7:10p.m., Monday, June 2 MLB.tv) The Brewers are hitting their stride, but I see their winning streak coming to an end on Monday. Brady Singer is having a good season and has allowed just 4 earned runs in his last 12 innings. Look for him to throw a quality start and get the desperate Reds a much needed victory at home on Monday night.

5 Unit Play. Take #621 Las Vegas -155 money line over Seattle (6p.m., Sunday, June 1) We got burned with this play earlier this season, but expect a course correction in this game. This is part two of the reunion and I see Las Vegas actually showing up and putting in the effort to win this game. They got embarrassed last time in the Emerald City and I expect that to show up in their play tonight.

8 Unit Play. Take #927 Boston -115 over Atlanta (1:35p.m., Sunday, June 1 MLBN) MLB Game of the Year. Getting Garrett Crochet at this price is too good to pass up. He is facing a pitcher that was sent down, but called back up due to the injury to AJ Smith-Shawver. Crochet is making his 13 start this season and has been pitching well over his last 6 starts allowing two earned runs or less in each of them. He has a 2.04 E.R.A. on the season with 89 strikeouts in just 74 innings pitched. Look for him to give us another quality start today and that should allow him to leave the game with a lead. Boston has a positive run differential, yet is under .500 on the season and I look for that to balance out and for them to win some close games and get some clutch hits.

Atlanta struggles against left handed pitchers ranking in the bottom third in weighted on base average. Elder has not pitched in MLB since 5/14 and despite pitching better of late, still has a 4.50 E.R.A. on the season. Atlanta will enter this game having lost 7 of their last 10 games. All of the strong left handers batters in the lineup today for Boston and everyone should be able to take healthy swings against Elder. This is the rubber game of this series with Atlanta leading the overall by a margin of 3-2. Look for that to again even up at 3-3 with the Red Sox taking the finale behind their ace.

Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports

7 Unit Play. Take #618 Dallas Wings -1.5 over Chicago Sky (8p.m., Saturday, May 31 League Pass) The line dropped with the absence of Paige Bueckers but I feel the Wings are the better team playing at home. Chicago struggles to score points and I feel that they will have a letdown after getting their first victory on the season against this same team on Thursday. Dallas will be the more desperate team on Saturday, and they also have the best player on the floor in Arike Ogunbowale, a volume shooter that came up big on Thursday. If she has another good game tonight the Wings will win.

3 Unit Play. Take #967 Over 7.5 in Detroit @ Kansas City (4:10p.m., Saturday, May 31 MLB.tv) The Royals are one of the few teams that have had success against Tarik Skubal in 2024. In two of his four starts they hit him (9 total runs in those outings) and I expect that to be the case on Saturday. This is a low total and I see 8-10 total runs being scored in this game.

3 Unit Play. Take #611 Atlanta +5 over Seattle (10p.m., Friday, May 30 ION) I truly believe the Dream are the more talented team and have a variety of offensive weapons. Atlanta will enter this game having won 3 straight games and they are 2-1 in road games this season. Seattle traded away their best player from 2024 and I see this game going down to the wire.

3 Unit Play. Take #903 Milwaukee +120 over Philadelphia (6:45p.m., Friday, May 30 MLB.tv) The Brewers are catching the Phillies at the right time. Philadelphia played a long doubleheader yesterday against a division rival and Bryce Harper did not play in either of those games. We will take the Brewers coming off an off day at an underdog price.

Dallas has scored two goals in the last three games but they are on the verge of elimination and they have no choice but to be ultra aggressive here. We are not sure if they can win, but we think they will score. And defensively they have no answer for Edmonton in this series. Their only way to compete is to score tonight, and we think that both teams will get their share of the total.

The Knicks haven’t looked good in this series and even in their win you felt like the Pacers lost that game more than the Knicks won it. This short Knicks bench just doesn’t match up with the Pacers, who have better depth. A great starting 5 like the Knicks has gets worn down in the playoffs if they don’t have a proper supporting cast, and we think the Pacers will likely win this one and close it out. If they don’t win, we still think it will be a close game.

3 Unit Play. Take #606 Chicago over Dallas (8p.m., Thursday, May Prime Video) It ends tonight! The Sky will record their first victory in the season against a similar team that is just 1-4 on the season. All the issues with the Sky will be forgotten for one night and we expect to collect with the home underdog.

We thought the Timberwolves had a great chance in this series and we expected the Thunder to slip up somewhere in the postseason but it is obvious that OKC is the better team and matches up well. They will give their home fans a gift tonight with a double-digit win to advance to the NBA Finals. The Timberwolves blew their chance in Game 4 and the final for that game looked closer than the game actually was.

Teams come back all the time in NHL Playoff series when it looks like they are out of it. And we think the Hurricanes are right back in this series after a 3-0 win at Florida in Game 4. We think they have figured out the Panthers offense a bit and that shutout was impressive and gave them a lot of momentum in the series. Remember, the Hurricanes are 36-11-1 at home this season so they aren’t going away easy tonight. We think this is a level-headed team that is taking this series one game at a time, and we think there is great value tonight getting plus-money with this squad.

7 Unit Play. Take #928 Kansas City over Cincinnati (7:40p.m., Wednesday, May 28 MLB.tv) This is a strong pitching matchup from both sides, but I feel the Royals will grind out a victory to avoid being swept at home by the Reds. Noah Cameron has been outstanding this season with three straight quality starts with a 0.93 E.R.A. and a 0.67 WHIP. Hunter Green is just coming back to the injured list and did not go long in his first start back. I don’t think he will go long in this start either and thus the pitching advantage shifts towards the Royals. Kansas City will break out on offense and salvage the final game of this interleague series.

Dallas has lost their scoring touch and Edmonton has really clamped down on defense. We just don’t see the Stars doing much here on offense and they should have a tough night on that end once again after scoring a single goal combined in Games 2 and 3. Their season is essentially on the line tonight and they have to step up the defense. We think that will happen. Game 3 was looking like it was trending under and the Oilers got a late goal in the second and then went off in the third. We just don’t see that happening again, and we think whomever wins this will win a low scoring game.

The Knicks are right back in this series and they have shown they can win on the road this season. They have been one of the best road teams in the league this season and they have also win twice in a row in Indiana after their Game 3 win. We expect a close game but we think in the end the Knicks come out on top. We think this series has a great chance to go to seven games.

3 Unit Play. Take #954 Chicago (-1.5 RL) over Colorado (8:05p.m., Tuesday, May 27 MLB.tv) One team is the Rockies and they are on pace to set records for most loses in a season. Colorado battled hard last night and still lost 3-1, I do not expect them to be very competitive tonight in this game. It is a pitching mismatch and we will lay the price with the run line.

We like to take a good team off a bad loss and the Thunder certainly qualify tonight. They were down big and we just think they took a mulligan in that one to save their energy for Game 4 here. They can get a win here then have a close out game at home in Game 5. We took the Timberwolves in Game 3 as we thought they would have one strong game. But OKC has been pretty dominant in this series and we think they bring their A Game to not let this series slip away.

This is the last stand for the Hurricanes, who are down 3-0 in the series. While we are not sure they have what it takes to win, they will likely play a lot better on defense than they did in Game 3. That game looked like it was going to be an under most of the game until Florida exploded for five goals in the third period. That is unlikely to happen again. The Hurricanes haven’t been able to get anything going on offense in this series, so they are going to have to rely on their defense to get the job done. We think they will rise to that task. Before that third period outburst by the Panthers, five of the previous seven meetings have gone under. Florida is probably going to take their foot off the gas a little, which is human nature when a team is up this big in a series. We just see a very low scoring game here and think this one will be an easy cashed ticket.

3 Unit Play. Take #916 Milwaukee over Boston (2:10p.m., Monday, May 26 MLB.tv) The Red Sox lineup is really undermanned without Alex Bregman and thus we will take the Brewers in this matchup at an underdog price. Garrett Crochet has been strong this season but the Red Sox have lost 3 of his last 4 starts and I do not see them scoring many runs in this game either. The Brewers will grind out a couple of runs and build upon the momentum the got rallying in the eight inning yesterday to win 2 in a row.  

The Knicks are still in this series. They are 5-1 on the road in the playoffs this season. They need a win here to save their season, and we believe that the Knicks with their A Game will get a comfortable win tonight. Game 3 is crazy when a team is down 2-0 because a loss pretty much seals their fate while a win puts them right back into the series. We think the latter will happen and we will take the points over moneyline as insurance.

7 Unit Play. Take #621 Las Vegas Aces -5 over Seattle Storm (6p.m., Sunday, May 25 League Pass) We will follow the line movement with top play in the padded sports bra league on Sunday. All-time great Jewell Loyd returns to Seattle, and we expect a double-digit victory by the visitor on Sunday. Vegas struggled last time out against Washington, but I see them putting it together with a double-digit victory tonight at Climate Pledge Arena. The Storm has played a soft schedule this season against two teams that will likely not make the playoffs come September. Vegas still believe they are the best team in the West, and I see them winning today in an emotional return.

Dallas got shut out in Game 2 but it wasn’t for lack of offense as they had plenty of chances. The Stars have been solid offensively in this playoffs and they will be able to make the adjustments to have a better offensive output here. They were shut out against Winnipeg in Game 2 last series and bounced back for five goals in Game 3. We see a competitive game here and we think both teams get their share of the total, and the net will likely be empty towards the end of the game so there might be additional chances for goals at the end of the game.

3 Unit Play. Take #966 Boston -125 over Baltimore (1:35p.m., Sunday, May 25 MLB.tv) No bet against Baltimore is a bad bet in 2025. They hung on for a rare victory yesterday but I see them losing 3 of 4 to the Red Sox today at Fenway Park in Boston, MA. Walker Buehler should be well rested after getting thrown out in his last start in which he pitched very well in. Expect a quality start today and a victory as the Red Sox get over the .500 mark.

4 Unit Play. Take #903 Milwaukee over Pittsburgh (4:05p.m., Saturday, May 24 MLB.tv) The Pirates just do not score many runs and it took extra innings for them to get to 5 runs last night. They beat the Brewers on Thursday to even up this series at one game apiece and I see the Crew winning on Saturday. Both pitchers are hitable, but I see the Brewers offense getting going for a third straight game. Yelich has shown some life of late and look for that to continue on Saturday.

4 Unit Play. Take #615 Dallas over Atlanta (3p.m., Saturday, May 24 CBSSN) Both teams like to get up and down the court and I expect Dallas to be able to dictate the pace of this game as they search for their first victory on the season. Atlanta was playing at State Farm Arena on Thursday facing Indiana, now they are back in their smaller gym and expect a letdown in this game. Dallas has talent and I see them being competitive in this game and taking it down to the wire.

4 Unit Play. Take #607 Over in Golden State @ Los Angeles (10p.m., Friday, May 23 ION) We used the over with Golden State on Wednesday but came up short after a terrible first quarter put us way behind the number. Expect a course correction tonight against a Sparks team that likes to get up and down the court. Play the over and we will not worry if the Sparks can cover this double digit spread and instead just focus on the total.

3 Unit Play. Take #977 Over 8.5 in Miami @ Los Angeles (9:38p.m., Friday, May 23 MLB.tv) Sany Alcantara has not been the same pitcher since coming back from injury. He is 2-6 this season with a 7.99 E.R.A. with 23 walk and 7 home runs allowed in just 41 2/3 innings of work. Yusei Kikuchi has a high WHIP as well and thus we will not worry about who wins this game and just collect with the over.

These teams have now gone over in three straight meetings. Dallas has scored at least four goals in four straight meetings. They were amazing on offense in Game 1 and especially on the power play. We don’t see how Edmonton will slow them down. We also think the Oilers will make adjustments on offense and they will have a better offensive showing. They did score three goals in Game 1. They have had one bad offensive game in recent playoff matchups but otherwise they have scored at least three goals, and often many more, in nine of their last 10 games in this postseason. We think both teams get their share of the total tonight.

I would consider this almost a must win for the Knicks tonight. A two-game hole when you were the home team would be catastrophic. Indiana rallied in Game 1 for a shock win when the Knicks had a comfortable lead. New York got complacent and we just don’t think that happens again. It’s telling that the oddsmakers have made them an even bigger favorite in Game 2.

We will give the Wolves a mulligan for Game 1. We still think this team has a great chance in this series or at least to take it all the way to Game 7. Minnesota hasn’t lost much in these playoffs but in their two losses they bounced back to win and cover the next game. The Timberwolves have experience winning in OKC this season and they also have the players to make adjustments and have a much better showing than they did in Game 1. We see more of the first half Wolves here in Game 2 than the second half that let down and suffered a blowout.

After seeing the Panthers lay a beatdown on the Hurricanes in Game 1, we absolutely love this plus-money price on them tonight. We had them handicapped as a small favorite for this Game 2 matchup So, amazing value here. NHL isn’t like the NBA and teams can climb out of a hole in series, so this game isn’t do or die for the Hurricanes quite yet. So they won’t be playing with desperation or anything. The Panthers are much more battle tested in this playoffs and it showed in Game 1. Carolina played two teams that didn’t pose much of a challenge in the Devils and Capitals. Washington looked nothing like the team we was in the regular season in these playoffs. Florida played an incredibly tough Lightning team and then a championship-caliber Leafs squad. Remember, they swept the away first portion of games in that series against the Lightning and we think they have a great chance to do it here. They are 6-2 on the road this postseason and they have won three straight playoff road games after their Game 1 win.

4 Unit Play. Take #601 Indiana over Atlanta (7:30p.m., Thursday, May 22 Prime Video) We are not getting a ton of value with this line, but I really believe Indiana will bounce back and win this game in Atlanta on Thursday. The Fever rallied late against the Dream on Tuesday taking a lead after trailing for 39 minutes. I see them winning this game by double digits on Thursday and getting to 2-1 on the year.

5 Unit Play. Take #917 San Diego over Toronto (1:07p.m., Thursday, May 22 MLB.tv) The Blue Jays shut out the Padres in the first two games of this series, but I see the visitor salvaging the final game of this series. The Padres have the edge in pitching today with Stephen Kolek on the mound, he is 2-1 on the season with a 2.33 E.R.A. and a 3 to win strikeout to walk ratio. Bowden Francis has been hit hard of late giving up 18 earned runs and 8 home runs in his last 4 starts combined. The Padres have a strong lineup and getting them at this price is too good to pass up on Thursday.

3 Unit Play. Take #627 Over in Washington @ Golden State (10p.m., Wednesday, May 21 League Pass) The Mystics have been one of the surprise teams this season scoring 94 and 90 points in their first two games. Look for another high scoring game on Wednesday and we will lead towards the over with this play.

3 Unit Play. Take #953 Chicago over Miami (1:10p.m., Wednesday, May 21 MLB.tv) It is getaway day, and this is the rubber game of the series. The Cubs pounded the Marlins last night and I expect them to win this series behind Cade Horton. He has not pitched much this season, but he will need to keep the ball inside the fence to be successful. This pick is based on Chicago being the better all-around team.

The NBA Playoffs are a completely different game than the regular season. OKC stormed through the regular season with the best record in the league and they were one of the best ATS teams in league history and cashed tickets on better than 67 percent of their games. We kind of wondered what they were doing there down the stretch of the season as they were giving 100 percent every game when they already had the No. 1 seed locked up. We think Golden State taught the league a lesson in 2015-16 when they had the best regular season winning percentage of all time but didn’t win the title. Teams need to manage the regular season, especially down the stretch. They need to save energy, mentally and physically, for the postseason. Well, here OKC is in the Western Conference Finals, and kudos to them. But they haven’t looked like the same team that was rolling over everyone in the regular season. They are just 4-8 ATS so far in the playoffs. They let a pretty bad Memphis team, that shouldn’t have even been a playoff team, hang around in Games 3 and 4, and the Grizzlies covered both games. A Denver team that on paper looked much worse than the Thunder took them to seven games, and OKC was 2-5 ATS in that series. The Thunder don’t have a lot of playoff experience. This WCF is uncharted territory for them. Minnesota was here last year. OKC has a quick turnaround which will be a big benefit for the well-rested Timberwolves. Minnesota is a legit championship caliber team in our eyes. They are 8-2 ATS in these playoffs. Games 1s have been tricky this playoffs for the higher seed at home. Indiana beat Cleveland. New York beat Boston. Denver beat this OKC team. Golden State beat this Timberwolves team. The Warriors also beat the Rockets. We think this will be a close game but we think the Wolves have a legit chance for the outright win. The Wolves have covered four of the last five meetings, and they have won two of the last three visits to OKC. That includes an OT win in the last meeting in February, as Minnesota won outright as a 12-point dog.

We think this is an amazing price for the Hurricanes for Game 1. We think this series will go far, but Carolina has a big rest advantage as they closed up their series on May 15 and the Panthers have a quick turnaround with only one day off. The Panthers have played two more games than the Hurricanes this postseason, and the extra rest is a huge advantage at this point of the season. Couple that with the fact that Carolina is one of the best home teams in the league and they are almost unbeatable here. Florida has been a little better than average on the road this season, and that is a big reason why they had an unfavorable seed this postseason.
