04-16-21 | Indians v. Reds -107 | Top | 3-10 | Win | 100 | 14 h 8 m | Show |
At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Cincinnati Reds over the Cleveland Indians. The Reds will hand the ball to Jeff Hoffman tonight, while Cleveland will start Logan Allen. This will be Allen's first road start this season. And he's been a much worse pitcher away from home (8.10 ERA) compared to his outings at home (3.60 ERA). Hoffman will be making his second start at home, and his first one was brilliant, as he gave up just 1 run over 5 innings, in a 12-1 Cincy victory vs. the Cardinals. Overall, the Reds have won their last five at home. And that bodes well, especially given that Cleveland is a poor 18-24 (minus 7.4 games on the moneyline) on the road, when priced from +125 to -125. Take the Reds in this opening game of this 3-game series. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

04-16-21 | Cardinals v. Phillies -135 | Top | 2-9 | Win | 100 | 14 h 4 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Philadelphia Phillies over the St. Louis Cardinals. The final game of Philadelphia's series against the Mets was postponed due to weather on Thursday, and that does three things for the Phils. First, it allows them to skip meeting the best pitcher in NL in Jacob deGrom (although we actually liked the value of Eflin as a +220 underdog yesterday). Second, it gives RHP Zach Eflin an extra day of rest, which is not a bad thing, as the Phillies are 19-13 after a day off, while St. Louis is a poor 10-21 in the same situation. And, third, Eflin is now favored, and the Phillies are 18-10 (+4.4 games on the moneyline) as a favorite, with him on the mound. Eflin has been very good in his two starts so far this season. In 13 innings, he has a 3.46 ERA with 10 strikeouts and only two walks. The Cards will go with veteran RH Carlos Martinez who began life in the Majors as a starter before transitioning to the bullpen and is now back in the rotation. To say that Martinez's return to the rotation has been rough would be a big understatement. Last season, C-Mart started five games and went 0-3 with a 9.90 ERA. And so far through two starts in 2021, he is picking up where he left off in 2020, with an 0-2 record, 6.30 ERA, and 1.40 WHIP. St. Louis is also 1-4 in the last five meetings and 2-5 in the last seven in Philly. Take the Phils. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

04-16-21 | Flames v. Canadiens -130 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 13 h 5 m | Show |
At 6:05 pm, our selection is on the Montreal Canadiens over the Calgary Flames. The Canadiens decided to exercise caution at the trade deadline, and were calculated in their player moves. Montreal did make some substantial deals, but didn't go crazy and mortgage its future in the process. The Habs brought in veteran C Eric Staal, and only gave up a third and fifth rounder in return. Then they shored up their defense by acquiring Jon Merrill from Detroit and Erik Gustafsson from the Flyers. Certainly, these are not earth-shattering moves, but they may be enough to take them to the next level this upcoming post-season. Tonight, they will seek revenge against the Flames, who beat them on Wednesday, 4-1. That victory was Calgary's third in a row, following on the heels of a four-game losing streak. Unfortunately for Calgary, it is 5-14 (-14 games on the moneyline) in its last 19 off a road blowout win by three or more goals, while the Habs are 10-3 (+7 games on the moneyline) in their last 13 off of a home blowout loss. Take Montreal. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

04-15-21 | Bucks -4.5 v. Hawks | Top | 120-109 | Win | 100 | 1 h 17 m | Show |
At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Milwaukee Bucks over the Atlanta Hawks. Giannis Antetokounmpo has just been upgraded to 'probable,' so we'll put the trigger on the Bucks. Both teams do come into this game on win streaks. The Bucks routed the Magic by 37, and the Timberwolves by 25. Meanwhile, Atlanta's won its last three in a row, including back to back upset wins over Charlotte and Toronto in their last two. Generally speaking, I like to go against teams off back to back upset wins, and especially if they're matched up against foes also in good form, off back to back wins, themselves. Dating back to 1990, our teams off back to back upset wins are a poor 166-228 ATS. That doesn't bode well for Atlanta tonight. Nor does the fact that the Hawks have lost 11 of the last 12 meetings, straight-up, vs. Milwaukee. And Atlanta's only win was by a single point, 136-135, in overtime. Finally, Atlanta's a poor 20-39 ATS as home dogs off a win, if they're matched up against a non-division foe. Lay the points with Milwaukee. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
04-15-21 | Panthers v. Lightning -155 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 16 h 36 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Tampa Bay Lightning over the Florida Panthers. The Central Division is the most competitive in the league with three teams tied for the lead with 58 points as of this writing. Although the Lightning is one of those teams, the Defending Cup Champions have still suffered some bad losses this season. But none of Tampa's defeats has been any worse than what the Predators did two nights ago, crushing the Bolts by a 7-2 final. Back-up goalie Curtis McElhinney was in net for the Lightning in that one and the coaches opted not to pull him even when things got out of hand, presumably so they would have a fresh Andrei Vasilevskiy for tonight. McElhinney doesn't see much time in place of Tampa's #1 man and Tuesday showed why. We played on Florida in its last game, but it took overtime against a banged-up Stars team for the Panthers to break their three game losing streak with a 3-2 victory, on Tuesday. The Lightning are a super 32-8 (+19 games on the moneyline) in their last 40 immediately following a loss by more than a goal in their previous game. Take Tampa. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

04-14-21 | Ducks v. Sharks -168 | Top | 4-1 | Loss | -168 | 18 h 13 m | Show |
At 10:35 pm, our selection is on the San Jose Sharks over the Anaheim Ducks. The only way to describe the Sharks' last game against this Ducks team is as a complete embarrassment. The Sharks were not only beaten by the worst team in the Division, but they were also shut out, 4-0. Even if the Sharks won't go down as the only team to get blanked by the Ducks this season -- Anaheim has also done the deed to the Knights, Coyotes, and Wild -- it was still a game it would like to forget. However, if there was a positive takeaway from Monday night's debacle, it was that San Jose out-shot Anaheim by a lopsided 46-21. With Devan Dubnyk having departed San Jose via trade, Martin Jones is now the main man in goal and no doubt he will be looking for some redemption tonight after a poor performance on Monday. A shutout may have been welcomed by Anaheim, but it doesn't bode well for the Ducks tonight as they are just 2-6 in their last eight after blanking their opponent (0-3 in their last three in those rare situations). Meanwhile, San Jose is 45-18 at home off a home loss by more than two goals, and 10-4 off a shutout defeat. Take the Sharks. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

04-14-21 | Mavs -1.5 v. Grizzlies | Top | 114-113 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 16 m | Show |
At 9:40 pm, our selection is on the Dallas Mavericks over the Memphis Grizzlies. The Mavs come into tonight's game off back to back home losses, including an 18-point blowout at the hands of the Philly 76ers. I love Dallas to rebound off those defeats, and get the W tonight at Memphis. Indeed, the Mavs are 24-6 straight-up, and 23-6-1 ATS their last 30 as road favorites of less than 7 points, including a perfect 4-0 ATS off back to back losses. Even better: Dallas is a terrific 77-39-1 ATS off a loss by 14+ points. And it's 116-71 ATS off a loss, if its opponent was off a straight-up win. Take the Mavericks. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

04-14-21 | Tigers v. Astros -230 | Top | 6-4 | Loss | -230 | 15 h 44 m | Show |
At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Houston Astros over Detroit. After dropping Games 1 + 2 in this three-game series, the Astros will look to salvage things with a win in Game 3, tonight. Lance McCullers, Jr. will get the start for the Astros, and he's been a model of consistency in his two starts this season. McCullers went five innings in each start, and also gave up just one run, two hits and three walks in both of those starts! Tonight, McCullers will face a Tigers team, which will hand the ball to Michael Fulmer. Unfortunately for Detroit, Fulmer is 0-2 in his career vs. Houston, with an ERA north of 6 runs per game, and a WHIP of 1.79. The Tigers are a dreadful 43-133 (minus 32 games on the moneyline) as an underdog of +200 (or higher), and 11-28 (minus 13 games on the moneyline) after allowing 2 or less runs in their previous game. Take Houston. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
04-14-21 | Phillies -113 v. Mets | Top | 1-5 | Loss | -113 | 15 h 43 m | Show |
At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Philadelphia Phillies over the New York Mets. Like any MLB starter, the Phils' RH Zack Wheeler wants to win every time he goes out to the mound. But the 30-year-old has got to feel an additional incentive whenever he faces the Mets. It was New York, after all, which decided to not give Wheeler a contract extension in 2019 after he had been there for his first seven MLB seasons. And when that contract season came to a head, Wheeler had just completed his second straight winning campaign and looked for certain like a pitcher who New York would want to lock up. But, instead, Wheeler was granted free agency and he ended up signing with the Phillies -- a move that no doubt he is happy with now. Wheeler went 4-2 with a 2.92 ERA in 11 starts in 2020. And he started out this season with a bang, tossing seven innings of one-hit ball in a shutout win against Atlanta. The Mets beat this Phillies team in both games of the double-header on Tuesday, but they are just 25-46 (minus 16 games on the moneyline) in their last 71 games as an underdog of +150 (or less). Take the Phils. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

04-14-21 | Reds -110 v. Giants | Top | 0-3 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 17 m | Show |
At 3:45 pm, our selection is on the Cincinnati Reds over the San Francisco Giants. Yesterday, we played on the Giants behind Kevin Gausman, and were rewarded with a 7-6 come-from-behind victory. Today, we'll switch gears, and take the road team, Cincinnati. The Reds will hand the ball to RHP Tyler Mahle, who has been terrific this season. Mahle has made two starts, and threw four shutout innings last Friday at Arizona, and gave up just two earned runs over five innings vs. the Cardinals, back on April 3. Today, Mahle will match up against the Giants' Johnny Cueto, who has a career 4.50 ERA vs. the Reds. Cincy is 11-6 behind Mahle, when installed as a favorite. Take the Reds. |
|||||||
04-14-21 | Cubs v. Brewers -160 | Top | 0-7 | Win | 100 | 9 h 12 m | Show |
At 1:40 pm, our selection is on the Milwaukee Brewers over the Chicago Cubs. The Brewers' Corbin Burnes has been as effective as any pitcher in baseball through his first two starts. He's faced the Twins and Cardinals, and has given up just 1 run over 12 1-3 innings, while allowing just two baserunners (!!!), and striking out 20 batters. Today, Burnes will take on Jake Arrieta and the Cubs. Chicago's a poor 26-38 on the division road, and 140-284 (minus 42 games on the moneyline) as an underdog of +150 (or higher), while Milwaukee is a dominant 255-134 (+25 games on the moneyline) as a home favorite of -150 (or more). Take the Brewers this afternoon. |
|||||||
04-13-21 | Reds v. Giants -102 | Top | 6-7 | Win | 100 | 16 h 19 m | Show |
At 9:45 pm, our selection is on the San Francisco Giants over the Cincinnati Reds. Buck Showalter may be a well-liked personality around baseball, but it seems that the verdict is in when it comes to his handling (and that of his coaches) of pitchers when he was managing the Orioles. RHs Dylan Bundy and Kevin Gausman were two of the hottest prospects coming up for the O's at about the same time and they could never get on track in their time in Charm City. But now that they've both left, Bundy and Gausman are blossoming on the West Coast -- looking like the pitchers the O's thought they could be. Gausman is now in San Francisco and he broke out big last season in 12 games (10 starts), and so far he looks even better at age 30 this season. In his two starts, Gausman sports a 1.32 ERA and 0.73 WHIP with 11 K's and 3 BBs in just under 14 innings. Start #3 comes tonight against the surprising Reds and their ace, RH Luis Castillo. Unfortunately for Cincy, it is 0-5 in Castillo's last five starts as an underdog/PK). Meanwhile, Gausman's teams are 31-18 (+9 games on the moneyline) at home in his starts, when priced as a favorite of -150 or less. Take the Giants. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

04-13-21 | Panthers -108 v. Stars | Top | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 15 h 13 m | Show |
At 8:35 pm, our selection is on the Florida Panthers over the Dallas Stars. The NHL trade deadline has passed and while the Panthers were fairly active -- picking up four players in an effort to fortify their line-up for the playoffs -- the Stars basically did nothing. Dallas' management probably figures it's been a lost season at this point with a plethora of injuries, so it doesn't make much sense to mortgage the future in an attempt to right the ship in the final month. Admittedly, the Stars' injury situation is a little bit better than it was a month ago, but they still have no fewer than a half-dozen regulars out of action. The Panthers have been solid on the road this season (12-8-1) and, at 56 total points, they currently sit just two points behind division co-leaders Carolina and Tampa. That makes games like tonight's revenge match-up even more important. Despite Dallas' win on Saturday, 4-1, Florida is still 5-2 in the last seven meetings. The Panthers are also 6-1 in their last seven after scoring less than two goals in their previous game, and 29-15 after giving up more than three goals. Finally, from a scheduling standpoint, the Panthers have an advantage, in that they've been off since Saturday, while Dallas will be playing its 3rd game in four nights (after losing to Nashville on Sunday). The Stars are a wallet-busting 14-32 when playing their 3rd game in four nights. Take Florida. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

04-13-21 | Indians -100 v. White Sox | Top | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 15 h 46 m | Show |
At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Cleveland Indians over the Chicago White Sox. We're less than two weeks into the season, but you'd be hard-pressed to get a pitching match-up in the AL as good as this one the rest of the year. When it comes to American League hurlers, it doesn't get much better than RHPs Shane Bieber of the Tribe and Lucas Giolito of the White Sox. Bieber won the AL Cy Young in the 2020 shortened season, while Giolito finished seventh. Neither one of these aces was at his best in his season debut, which is not surprising. What is surprising is that a Cleveland offense, which figured to be in rebuilding mode in its first season without superstar SS Francisco Lindor, has actually been fairly productive so far. Dating back to last season, the Indians have won six of the last seven meetings vs. Chicago, and two of those victories came in Bieber vs. Giolito match-ups, like tonight. The White Sox are 9-13 in Giolito's last 22 home starts, as well as 2-7 in his last nine starts as a home underdog (or PK). Meanwhile, Cleveland is 24-11 in Bieber's road starts. Take the Indians. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

04-13-21 | Hawks v. Raptors -1 | Top | 108-103 | Loss | -105 | 1 h 7 m | Show |
At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Toronto Raptors. It has just been announced that Trae Young will not play for Atlanta, so that's enough for us to pull the trigger on the Raptors. Take Toronto tonight. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie |

04-12-21 | Rockets +13 v. Suns | Top | 120-126 | Win | 100 | 17 h 29 m | Show |
At 10:10 pm, our selection is on the Houston Rockets + the points over the Phoenix Suns. We played on Houston last Monday vs. these Suns, and got the cash when the Rockets lost by just three points, 133-130, as a 14-point home underdog. And we also played on the Suns in their last game, which was an easy win for us vs. the Wizards (134-106). Tonight, we'll once again take Houston as a double-digit underdog, as it comes into this game off back to back blowout losses, at the Clippers, and at the Warriors. But Houston is a solid 91-59 ATS on the road as an underdog off back to back ATS losses, including 39-17 ATS when playing with revenge. And Phoenix is a horrid 9-29 ATS as a favorite of 9+ points, if it was off a win, in which it covered by 9+ points. And the Suns are also 0-7 ATS their last seven vs. Houston, if the Suns were off a double-digit win. Take the Rockets + the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
04-12-21 | Tigers v. Astros -225 | Top | 6-2 | Loss | -225 | 16 h 34 m | Show |
At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Houston Astros over Detroit. Zack Greinke will get the ball tonight, as he looks to stop the bleeding for Houston, after it dropped its last two games on Friday + Saturday to the Oakland A's. The good news for Houston is that Greinke is as good as any pitcher in baseball when installed as a favorite, as his teams have gone 196-112 in his career, including 36-8 (+19 games on the moneyline) when priced as a favorite of -200 (or more). Meanwhile, Detroit is 42-133 (minus 34 games on the moneyline) as an underdog of +200 (or more). Finally, Houston is 31-6 its last 37 when playing with a day off. Take the Astros. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
04-12-21 | Angels -112 v. Royals | Top | 10-3 | Win | 100 | 16 h 33 m | Show |
At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Los Angeles Angels over the Kansas City Royals. For years, the Angels had Mike Trout's bat in the line-up and not a whole lot more. Sure, future Hall of Famer Albert Pujols put in some very good seasons alongside Trout, but the offense was missing that spark plug to go with the best player in the game. But those days may be over and Trout may finally have some major help in the top half of the order in the form of Japanese star Shohei Ohtani. In his fourth season in the Majors and with his injuries apparently behind him, the 26-year-old Ohtani is having a Trout-like campaign so far in 2021, showing both power at the plate and speed on the basepaths. Tonight, it will be veteran RH Alex Cobb getting his second start for L.A. as the Halos try to come back from a big 15-1 loss on Saturday. The Angels are 4-2 in the last six meetings and will face the Royals' Brady Singer, who was hit hard by the Rangers in his 2021 debut (3 1/3 IP, 6 R, 5H, 3 BB). KC is a poor 13-25 when priced from -125 to +125. and 67-106 (minus 13 games on the moneyline) vs. RHP. Take L.A. |
|||||||
04-12-21 | Nationals v. Cardinals -133 | Top | 5-2 | Loss | -133 | 15 h 8 m | Show |
At 7:45 pm, our selection is on the St. Louis Cardinals over the Washington Nationals. The fluid state of the Cards' rotation gives opportunity to talented pitchers who want a chance to show their stuff as a starter. Enter 28-year-old RH John Gant. Gant was a star out of the bullpen in 2019, going 11-1 with a 3.66 ERA despite not starting a single game (he also threw in three saves). Then in a short 2020 campaign, Gant showed that the previous year was no fluke as he posted a 2.40 ERA in 17 games, although his W-L record took a hit. Those numbers, combined with elbow injuries to Mikolas and Hudson, have enabled Gant to get a shot at starting. And in his first effort he didn't disappoint, throwing four scoreless innings in a Cards win over Miami last Tuesday. Normally a second start against a team like the Nats for someone like Gant might be concerning, but Washington seems to be in total disarray right now with a 1-5 record after a late start to its season due to COVID. The Nats are also 17-40 in their last 57 trips to St. Louis. Take the Cards. |
|||||||
04-11-21 | Bucks -8.5 v. Magic | Top | 124-87 | Win | 100 | 18 h 42 m | Show |
At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Milwaukee Bucks minus the points over the Orlando Magic. Milwaukee's banged-up right now, as many key players (Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jrue Holiday, Donte DiVincenzo, Brook Lopez, Khris Middleton) missed its last game -- a 127-119 loss to Charlotte. The good news tonight is that Milwaukee should still have its way with the Magic, regardless of which Bucks players suit up for this game. Orlando's lost four straight, and 17 of 21. And it's an awful 16-33 ATS its last 49 vs. .595 (or better) foes. Milwaukee, meanwhile, is 34-17 ATS vs. sub-.650 foes, if Milwaukee lost its previous game. Finally, over the last 31 years, road favorites with a win percentage greater than .600, have covered 65% off 3 SU/ATS losses, if matched up against a non-division foe. Lay the points with Milwaukee. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
04-11-21 | Rangers v. Islanders -118 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 18 h 43 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the New York Islanders over the New York Rangers. These two teams met on Friday, and the Rangers blew out the Isles, 4-1, in Uniondale. But I love the Isles to avenge that home loss, back at home this afternoon. The Islanders are 13-3 this season vs. losing teams, and also a perfect 6-0 at home after giving up 4+ goals in their previous game. The Rangers, meanwhile, are an awful 10-23 (minus 11 games on the moneyline) off a win by more than 2 goals, and 13-28 off a road win. Take the Isles to bounce back on Sunday. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
04-11-21 | Reds -110 v. Diamondbacks | Top | 0-7 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 44 m | Show |
At 4:10 pm, our selection is on the Cincinnati Reds over the Arizona Diamondbacks. Roughly 10 games into the MLB season, there have been some surprising performances. But none have been more surprising than that of the Cincinnati Reds. After an off-season that saw their best player -- pitcher Trevor Bauer -- sign a free agent contract with the Dodgers, most people figured that 2021 would be a rebuilding year at best. And it still could be. But right now the Reds are sitting alone in first place in the NL Central with a 6-2 record. Tonight will be the rubber game in this three-game set with the D-Backs. And RH Jose DeLeon will get his second start for the Reds after a solid outing first time out in a Reds win over the Pirates last Monday. RH Luke Weaver also gets his second Arizona start of 2021. Once a promising prospect with the Cards, Weaver saw things completely unravel last season with the D-Backs as he went 1-9 with a 6.58 ERA in 12 starts. Despite the loss last night, Cincy is 4-2 in the last six meetings here in Arizona. Take the Reds. As always, good luck...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
04-11-21 | Hawks -2 v. Hornets | Top | 105-101 | Win | 100 | 12 h 43 m | Show |
At 1:10 pm, our selection is on the Atlanta Hawks minus the points over Charlotte. These two teams are surprisingly having strong seasons, as they sit in the 4th (Charlotte) and 5th (Atlanta) spots in the Eastern conference. So, this game is critical for playoff positioning. We'll take the Hawks, as they fall into a 145-66 ATS revenge system of mine, after losing, 113-105, to the Hornets in the last meeting. Additionally, the Hawks are 11-3 ATS when playing with revenge from a road loss. And, since 1990, they've cashed 67% as road favorites vs. winning teams, if Atlanta was playing with revenge from an upset loss. Lay the points with Atlanta. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
04-10-21 | Wizards v. Suns -11.5 | Top | 106-134 | Win | 100 | 12 h 39 m | Show |
At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Phoenix Suns minus the points over the Washington Wizards. Yesterday, the Wizards upset Golden State, 110-107, as a 4.5-point road underdog. But off that upset win, we'll fade Washington in the Valley of the Sun tonight, as Phoenix is playing with revenge from a 128-107 upset loss to Washington earlier this season. The Suns are 33-18 ATS this season -- an NBA best -- and they're doing their best work at home, where they've covered the spread by 3.37 points per game. The Suns are 15-5 ATS their last 20 at home, and they also fall into a 58-22 ATS system of mine which plays on certain .673 (or better) teams playing with revenge from losses by more than 20 points. Finally, since 1997, Phoenix has covered 63% at home off a loss vs. foes off upset road wins. Take Phoenix to blow out Washington. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
04-10-21 | Wild -108 v. Blues | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -108 | 19 h 9 m | Show |
At 5:05 pm, our selection is on the Minnesota Wild over the St Louis Blues. Last night, the Wild suffered one of their worst defeats in the history of the franchise when they lost, 9-1, to St. Louis. But off that huge embarrassing loss, we'll take Minnesota to bounce back on Saturday afternoon. Indeed, the Wild generally do just that, as they're 32-22 after allowing 6+ goals in their previous game, and 20-8 their last 28 (+13 games on the moneyline) off a loss by more than 4 goals. And they're 10-2 when playing with revenge from a loss by more than 3 goals. Take the Wild over St. Louis. Good luck, as always.....Al McMordie. |

04-10-21 | Phillies +128 v. Braves | Top | 4-5 | Loss | -100 | 18 h 15 m | Show |
At 7:20 pm, our selection is on the Philadelphia Phillies over the Atlanta Braves. After four MLB seasons where his performance as a starting pitcher ranged from poor to average, there were signs that RH Zach Eflin had turned a corner in the shortened 2020 campaign. In 11 games last season (10 starts), the 27-year-old posted career bests in ERA (3.97), WHIP (1.27), K rate (10.7) and K:BB ratio (4.67). In his only start so far in 2021, Eflin continued to shine, throwing seven sparkling innings, allowing one run on four hits with eight Ks and one walk. Eflin tries to keep it going tonight in his 11th career start against the Braves. And despite his lean early years in the league, Eflin is 5-3 with a nice 3.22 ERA vs. a very good Atlanta team in those 10 starts covering 58 2/3 innings. And in four previous starts here at Sun Trust Park, Eflin is 3-1. Despite their loss here last night, the Phillies are still 6-2 in the last eight meetings with the Braves. More importantly, the Phillies are 8-1 in Eflin's last nine starts going back to August 18, 2020. Take the Phils. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

04-10-21 | A's v. Astros -150 | Top | 7-3 | Loss | -150 | 15 h 1 m | Show |
At 4:05 pm, our selection is on the Houston Astros over the Oakland Athletics. Nobody knew how the Astros would perform this season, being that they will face hostile fans at virtually every road venue since they were caught in a cheating scandal. But so far, this Houston team seems to have used the adversity to its advantage, getting off to a 6-2 start. And while the road fans may not be very friendly to them, the 'Stros will be greeted with nothing but love here at Minute Maid Park this season. RH Jose Urquidy didn't start pitching for the 'Stros until 2019 so he has been somewhat immune to the controversy and that's probably fine with him. More importantly, the 24-year-old is a very talented player with a bright future. After a very solid rookie season, Urquidy landed a full-time rotation spot in the shortened 2020 season and responded with a 2.73 ERA and 1.01 WHIP in five starts covering just under 30 innings. The A's may have taken game one of this series last night, but they are still 1-6 in the last seven meetings with Houston. Take the Astros. As always, good luck...Al McMordie. |

04-09-21 | Nationals v. Dodgers -275 | Top | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 10 h 54 m | Show |
At 4:10 pm, our selection is on the Los Angeles Dodgers over the Washington Nationals. When L.A. signed free agent Trevor Bauer this year it added one of the top arms in the game to an already dangerous roster. Almost as important however is that the addition of the NL Cy Young winner also takes some of the pressure off the younger studs on the Dodgers' deep pitching staff -- most notably Julio Urias and today's starter, RHP Walker Buehler. Buehler had a solid first start, throwing six quality innings in a Dodger win over Colorado. That start was in hitter-friendly Denver, so there's no doubt Buehler is looking forward to his 2021 home debut this afternoon in the Dodgers' home opener. It comes against a team that has had many challenges even though the season is only eight days old. The Nats' opening series with the Mets was postponed due to COVID. And they dropped two of three to the Braves this week as the rust was evident. The Dodgers are 18-4 (+7 games on the moneyline) in Buehler's last 22 starts when favored -200 (or higher), and 119-52 (+32 games on the moneyline) their last 171 vs. righties. Meanwhile, Joe Ross has not delivered in the underdog role (9-18, minus 7 games on the moneyline). Take L.A. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

04-09-21 | Yankees -135 v. Rays | Top | 5-10 | Loss | -135 | 9 h 55 m | Show |
At 3:10 pm, our selection is on the New York Yankees over the Tampa Bay Rays. If the Rays could pick a starter to face on their season home opener, they likely would not choose RH Corey Kluber. Sure, the veteran -- who is beginning his first season with the Yankees after playing for the Rangers in 2020 -- is not the pitcher he was back in his Cy Young days. But the 34-year-old is still dangerous and capable of giving his team six+ quality innings every five days. More importantly, Kluber is 5-2 with a 2.67 ERA and 0.94 WHIP in 10 career starts vs. Tampa covering 64 innings. Kluber got his Yankee career off to a solid start, throwing four innings while allowing one ER on five hits with five K's against the Jays last Saturday. Once a crafty southpaw who could get guys out with his off-speed pitches, 41-year-old Rich Hill is now on the downside of his career and could have a tough time in his first season in Tampa. New York is 11-4 (+6 games on the moneyline) in its last 15 coming off a one-run loss to a division rival. Take the Yanks. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

04-08-21 | Lightning -204 v. Blue Jackets | Top | 6-4 | Win | 100 | 16 h 28 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Tampa Bay Lightning over the Columbus Blue Jackets. If you're a Lightning fan, you may be a bit concerned over the team's recent struggles, but it's certainly no reason to panic. After all, this is a club that usually saves its major problems for the playoffs -- last season notwithstanding. The fact that Tampa has lost five of its last seven games may not look that good on the surface, but there are plenty of reasons to think it will be the conference favorite heading into the post-season, which begins in a little more than a month. First, there is the fact that this is a very healthy team going into the final month of the season. And, second, despite their stumbles of late, the Bolts still feature the top net-minder in the game in veteran Russian Andrei Vasilevskiy, who is sporting the best numbers of his career (2.00 GAA; .931 Sv Pct). This is a revenge situation for the Bolts and they are 8-2 in their last 10 revenging a loss as a favorite; 26-9 off a road loss; and 31-8 (+18 games on the moneyline) in their last 39 after a loss by two or more goals. Meanwhile, the Blue Jackets are a wallet-busting 13-21 (minus 12 games on the moneyline) off a home win, in which they scored more than three goals. Take Tampa. As always, good luck...Al McMordie. |

04-07-21 | Grizzlies v. Hawks -2 | Top | 131-113 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 57 m | Show |
At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Atlanta Hawks minus the points over Memphis. The Grizzlies and Hawks both played last night. Memphis went into Miami, and upset the Heat, 124-112, for its 3rd straight win (and 5th straight cover). Meanwhile, Atlanta defeated New Orleans here, at home, 123-107, for its fourth straight win and cover. We'll go against Memphis tonight, as this will be its 3rd road game in four nights. And NBA teams that were playing their 3rd road game in 4 nights, have covered just 37% over the past 31 seasons if they were off two wins, and matched up against an opponent with a better W/L record, which was off back to back SU/ATS wins. The Hawks are a super 105-56-4 ATS at home in the regular season vs. foes off 3+ wins, including 31-8-2 ATS its last 41 if its opponent was unrested. Take Atlanta. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
04-07-21 | Mets v. Phillies -150 | Top | 2-8 | Win | 100 | 11 h 50 m | Show |
At 4:05 pm, our selection is on the Philadelphia Phillies over the New York Mets. The Phillies got their season off to a 4-0 start, sweeping the Braves in three games and then taking the first of this series on Monday, despite the presence of Jacob deGrom on the mound for New York. The Phils finally lost on Tuesday, but they come back this afternoon with their ace, RHP Aaron Nola. The 27-year-old was in mid-season form in his first start last Thursday against Atlanta, throwing 6 2/3 quality innings, allowing two runs on six hits with six Ks and no walks. And if there's one thing Nola likes, it's starting games against the Mets. In 16 starts vs. New York, Nola is 8-2 with a 3.30 ERA, including 114 strikeouts and only 75 hits in just over 95 innings. Throughout his MLB career, Nola has loved pitching in his home park. In 72 starts here at Citizens Bank, Nola is 33-17 with a 2.98 ERA and 1.09 WHIP in 455 2/3 innings (vs. 25-23 with a 4.02 ERA in 68 starts elsewhere). The Mets are also a woeful 6-20 in their last 26 games as a road underdog of at least +125. Take Philly. As always, good luck...Al McMordie. |

04-07-21 | Blue Jays -183 v. Rangers | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -183 | 9 h 51 m | Show |
At 2:05 pm, our selection is on the Toronto Blue Jays over the Texas Rangers. Two seasons ago, Hyun Jin Ryu had a ridiculous season with the L.A. Dodgers, almost winning the NL Cy Young award while leading his team to yet another NL West Division title. Ryu signed with the Jays as a free agent in December of that year and proceeded to have another outstanding, albeit shortened, campaign in 2020 with Toronto. Now with an even better team around him, and a full season with which to work, Ryu may be poised to do with the Jays what he did with the Dodgers. His first start of 2021 was solid (5 1/3 IP; 2 ER; 5 Ks; 0 BBs) and he looks to follow that up this afternoon with another good outing. Ryu's career record in day games is even more dominant than his overall numbers. In 39 daytime starts covering 227 innings, the veteran LHP is 21-9 with a 2.66 ERA with 222 strikeouts and only 40 walks. And Ryu's teams are 10-2 (+8 games on the moneyline) in his last 12 daytime starts. Take the Blue Jays. |
|||||||
04-07-21 | Twins -165 v. Tigers | Top | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 55 m | Show |
At 1:10 pm, our selection is on the Minnesota Twins over the Detroit Tigers. The Twins are my pick this season (at 22-1 odds) to win the World Series, so we will no doubt be on the Twins often this season. Today, we'll back Minnesota's veteran righty, Kenta Maeda. In his first start of the season, Maeda was effective, as he gave up just 1 run in 4 1-3 innings vs. the Brewers. Here, Maeda will be matched-up against the Detroit Tigers' Matt Boyd. This is a favorable spot for Minnesota, as Detroit is a horrible 25-64 (minus 27 games on the moneyline) as a home underdog, while Maeda's teams are 36-19 (+ 8 games on the moneyline) when priced from -125 to -175. Take the Twins. |
|||||||
04-06-21 | 76ers v. Celtics +1 | Top | 106-96 | Loss | -100 | 13 h 25 m | Show |
At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Boston Celtics + the points over Philadelphia. These two teams met earlier this season in Philadelphia for a back-to-back set. And the 76ers won each of those two games, by 8 and 12 points, respectively. But this game is in Boston, and we'll take the homestanding Celtics to avenge those defeats. Boston comes into this game off back-to-back blowout wins over Houston (118-102) and Charlotte (116-86), and has gone 5-2 ATS its last seven. That bodes well for Brad Stevens men tonight, as they're 56-23 ATS off a home blowout win by more than 20 points. And they're 32-12 ATS at home when not favored by 3+ points, including a perfect 9-0 ATS off back to back SU/ATS wins. Philadelphia, meanwhile, has dropped four of its last five to the point spread. And the 76ers are a poor 8-22-1 ATS as road favorites vs. .500 (or better) foes off a win, including 0-7-1 ATS if their foe was playing with revenge. Take the Celtics. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

04-06-21 | Rays -145 v. Red Sox | Top | 5-6 | Loss | -145 | 13 h 57 m | Show |
At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Tampa Bay Rays over the Boston Red Sox. People in Pittsburgh lament the fact that the Pirates let Gerrit Cole go to the Yankees via free agency. But a much bigger gaffe by the Bucs was a year earlier when they traded Austin Meadows, Tyler Glasnow, and uber-prospect Shane Baz to Tampa for Chris Archer. We still have no idea what the Pirates thought they were going to do with Archer but sure as heck know what the Rays have been able to do with Glasnow and Meadows. Tonight, the 6'8", 27-year-old RHP gets his second start after a stellar 2021 debut last Thursday in which he threw six innings of one-hit, shutout ball in a 1-0 Tampa win over the Marlins. The Sox bounced back last night in game one of this series (after being swept by the Orioles) but this team has more question marks at this point than it does answers. And last year the Rays gave the Sox all kinds of trouble, taking seven of the 10 meetings. The Rays are 12-3 (+9 games on the moneyline) in Glasnow's last 15 road starts. Take Tampa. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

04-06-21 | Bruins -120 v. Flyers | Top | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 13 h 54 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Boston Bruins over the Philadelphia Flyers. Boston won the first five meetings between these two teams this season, but faltered last night, when it lost, 3-2, in overtime. But off that loss, we'll take the Bruins to resume their winning ways vs. Philadelphia. Carter Hart will be in goal tonight for the Flyers, and he's 0-2-2 with a 5.32 GAA and an awful .843 Saves Pct. vs. Boston this season. The Bruins are a solid 10-5 this season off a loss, and 39-28 when playing with same-season revenge. Meanwhile, the Flyers are a wallet-busting 209-240 (but minus 76 games on the moneyline) off a road win. Take the Bruins. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
04-05-21 | Suns v. Rockets +11 | Top | 133-130 | Win | 100 | 16 h 12 m | Show |
At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Houston Rockets + the points over the Phoenix Suns. The Rockets are 2-25 straight-up, and 5-22 ATS over their last 27 games. Their problems started when forward Christian Wood sustained an injury in the February 4 game at Memphis, and the Rockets lost their next 20 games. But Wood returned to action on March 17. And, then, over the next week, Houston made roster moves to bring in Kelly Olynyk, Avery Bradley, D.J. Augustin, and D.J. Wilson. And it is now playing better basketball, as it's 2-5 SU and 3-4 ATS its last seven, and has "only" been outscored by an average of 4.42 ppg over this stretch. Tonight, Houston has been installed as a huge home underdog against the Western conference's #2 seed, the Phoenix Suns, who are on a 5-game winning streak. This is a letdown spot, as the Suns blew out Oklahoma City by 37 points on Friday, and have games against the two teams (Jazz, Clippers) that sit above and below them in the standings, on Wednesday and Thursday. We'll take Houston tonight, as double-digit home underdogs, with a win percentage less than .285, off a straight-up loss, have gone 140-73 ATS vs. .630 (or better) foes that are off a straight-up win. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
04-05-21 | Senators v. Jets -187 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 15 h 9 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Winnipeg Jets over the Ottawa Senators. The Senators surprised the Canadiens in their last game, 6-3. It was the third time this season that the Sens have put up a half-dozen goals and in the previous two they lost their next contest (one to the Maple Leafs and one to the Flames). They have another tall mountain to climb tonight against a Winnipeg team which has won 22 of its 38 games. A healthy Senators team would have problems against the Jets, anyway. But right now Ottawa is anything but healthy, with no fewer than seven of its regulars out of action due to injuries. If this game were being played in Ottawa, where the Sens have a decent 8-7-4 record, then they might stand a chance. But on the road this season, the Senators have posted a ledger of just 5-14. Even worse: this is a revenge situation for the Jets, as they lost to the Sens in their last meeting on February 13, by a 2-1 score. Notwithstanding that defeat, Winnipeg has dominated this series, taking six of the last seven meetings going back to February of 2020. Take the Jets. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

04-04-21 | Warriors -2 v. Hawks | Top | 111-117 | Loss | -112 | 14 h 50 m | Show |
At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Golden State Warriors minus the points over Atlanta. The Warriors were blasted, 130-77, by the Toronto Raptors on Friday. But off that loss, we'll take Golden State to rebound this evening against the Hawks. The good news for Steve Kerr's troops is that superstar Steph Curry will be back on the court tonight. Curry has missed six of the Warriors' last eight games, due to a tailbone contusion, but was upgraded to 'probable' on Saturday afternoon. As faithful followers know, I love to play on teams off big losses. And they don't get much worse than 53 points. Indeed, NBA favorites (or PK) off losses by more than 40 points have cashed 68.1% over the last 31 seasons! That bodes well for Golden State on Sunday night. As does the fact that the Warriors will be playing this game with revenge from a 124-108 loss earlier this season in San Francisco. And Golden State is a super 51-25 ATS on the road when playing with revenge. Meanwhile, the Hawks have covered just 34 of 95 as underdogs against rested, revenge-minded foes that they beat by more than 10 points earlier in the season (and just 14 of 55 if their opponent was off a SU/ATS loss). Take the Warriors. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
04-04-21 | Stars v. Hurricanes -160 | Top | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 13 h 17 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Carolina Hurricanes over the Dallas Stars. While teams like Vegas, Toronto, Tampa Bay, Colorado, and Washington have been getting most of the attention this season, the Carolina Hurricanes are quietly having a great campaign. In fact, the 'Canes' 72.9% points percentage in their 35 games so far is the best such number in their history (even better than the 68.3% they achieved in their Stanley Cup season of 2005-2006). They suffered their first loss to this Dallas Stars team last night (they had won the previous four meetings) so tonight they are looking for a bit of revenge. The quick turnaround is not necessarily a good thing for the Stars who are 1-5 in their last six games when playing with zero days of rest. Their recent struggles (8-20 in their last 28) have as much to do with injuries as anything else. Dallas is currently without no fewer than nine regulars who are out of action with various ailments. The Stars also are 6-16 in their last 22 games vs. teams with winning records. Take Carolina. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

04-03-21 | Bucks v. Kings +3 | Top | 129-128 | Win | 100 | 4 h 15 m | Show |
At 10:10 pm, our selection is on the Sacramento Kings + the points over the Milwaukee Bucks. Last night, the Kings were blown out here, at home, by the injury riddled Los Angeles Lakers. Los Angeles played without LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and newly-signed Andre Drummond, which made Sacramento a 5-point home favorite. No matter. The Lakers won without their stars, 115-94. Perhaps Sacramento thought it was going to have it easy, and lost focus? But, as luck would have it, tonight they will face Milwaukee without MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo. However, with last night's result fresh in the minds of the Kings, I fully expect them to NOT take the Bucks lightly tonight. Instead, I look for Sacramento to be focused, with an eye toward redeeming itself off its 21-point home loss last night. The Bucks come into this game off back to back road wins. But, since 1999, Milwaukee's covered just 38% on the road off back to back road wins. Take Sacramento. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
04-03-21 | Magic v. Jazz -15 | Top | 91-137 | Win | 100 | 12 h 45 m | Show |
At 9:10 pm, our selection is on the Utah Jazz minus the points over Orlando. Will this finally be the year that Utah wins an NBA title? The Jazz certainly are playing like it. They're 2nd in adjusted offensive efficiency; 3rd in adjusted defensive efficiency; and #1 (by a mile) in Net adjusted efficiency. Indeed, the only other teams that rank among the top 10 in both adjusted offensive and adjusted defensive efficiency are the Suns and Bucks. But they're 3.75 and 4.24 points, respectively, behind Utah in Net adjusted efficiency. Not surprisingly, the Jazz are also doing great "in Vegas," as they're #2 in the NBA with a .625 ATS win percentage (30-18 ATS), trailing only the Phoenix Suns (32-16 ATS). Utah did, however, fail to cover the point spread in each of its two previous games. But in the 2nd half of the NBA season (Game 42 forward), NBA teams with a .625 (or better) ATS win percentage, off back to back ATS losses, have rebounded to cover the spread 72.4% over the last 31 years when they were playing at home. Even better: Utah's 17-4 ATS its last 21 at home; 8-2 ATS its last 10 at home when playing without rest; and 151-109 ATS at home off back to back ATS losses. Lay the points with the Jazz. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

04-03-21 | Wild v. Golden Knights -148 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -148 | 12 h 45 m | Show |
At 9:05 pm, our selection is on the Vegas Golden Knights over the Minnesota Wild. There's not much separating the Knights, Wild and Avalanche right now in the Honda West Division. There's only a four points difference in the standings among those three, and the 4th place team is eight points behind. The fact that these three are in a dogfight with each other was borne out on Thursday night. The Wild and Knights played to a 3-2 shootout final won by Minnesota. And the shots-on-goal in that game were 37 apiece. But there are several reasons to think that the Knights will come through tonight in the rematch. First, there's the fact that the Knights are 7-3 in their last 10 coming off a home loss to a division rival and 4-1 in their last five off of a close loss (one goal or less) to a division rival. Second is the fact that despite Thursday's result, the home team is 6-1 in the last seven meetings of these two. Finally, Vegas is 8-3 (+7 games on the moneyline) in its last 11 games when revenging a loss vs. an opponent. Take the Knights. As always, good luck...Al McMordie. |

04-03-21 | UCLA +14.5 v. Gonzaga | Top | 90-93 | Win | 100 | 11 h 5 m | Show |
At 8:30 pm, our selection is on the UCLA Bruins + the points over Gonzaga. I think it's safe to say that we should throw out UCLA's last four Pac-12 games (all losses) to end its conference season. And that's because Mick Cronin's men have been a completely different animal in this tourney. They've defeated Michigan State (86-80), BYU (73-62), Abilene Christian (67-47), Alabama (88-78) and Michigan (51-49). But look more closely at their wins over Michigan State and Alabama, and you'll notice that both went into overtime. In regulation, UCLA held Michigan State to 77 and Alabama to 65. Thus, in this tournament, the Bruins have given up an average of 60 points per game in regulation. That's impressive, in and of itself. But then consider the teams that UCLA has faced. Their opponents included Michigan, which ranks 9th in Ken Pomeroy's offensive efficiency rankings; BYU, which ranks 20th; and Alabama, which ranks 29th. Yet through regulation time, UCLA held Michigan to its lowest offensive output of the season, BYU and Abilene Christian to their 2nd-lowest, and Alabama to its 5th-lowest. Certainly, Gonzaga is another animal, altogether. The Bulldogs rank #1 in the country in adjusted offensive efficiency, and have yet to lose a game. Indeed, Gonzaga has only played one team which came within single-digits (West Virginia, 87-82). Still, I believe the points will be valuable today. And, for technical support, consider that NCAA Tourney favorites of more than 10 points, off back to back double-digit SU/ATS wins, are a horrible 8-32 ATS against foes seeded #15 (or better). Finally, in the NCAA's Final Four, favorites of more than eight points have gone 1-7 ATS since 1991, with only North Carolina (-10, 83-66) covering against Syracuse in 2016. Take the points with the Bruins. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

04-03-21 | Houston +5.5 v. Baylor | Top | 59-78 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 47 m | Show |
At 5:10 pm, our selection is on the Houston Cougars + the points over the Baylor Bears. The Cougars were an ATM Machine in Vegas during the regular season, as they went 18-8 ATS (.692 ATS pct.), and covered the point spread by an average of 5.32 ppg. Those two marks ranked #8 and #4 of the 68 teams that qualified for the NCAA tournament (in contrast, Baylor ranked #25 and #35 in those metrics). It took a last-second three-point shot by Oregon State to hand the Cougars a point spread defeat in their previous game. But Houston is 8-0 ATS its last eight, and 28-8 ATS its last 36 off a point spread defeat! The Cougars are also 13-2 ATS their last 15 as an underdog of less than 7 points, while Baylor is a wallet-busting 10-19 ATS vs. .866 (or better) teams off an ATS loss. Finally, Houston gives up just 57.5 points per game, and ranks 8th in adjusted defensive efficiency in Ken Pomeroy's NCAA basketball ratings (in contrast, Baylor ranks 28th). And the Cougars also prefer to play at a much slower pace than Baylor, as Houston's games average just 134.1 ppg -- much less than the Bears' 148.5 ppg. That bodes well for the underdog, as in the semi-final round of the NCAA Tourney, teams with defenses that give up 63 or less points have covered 73.6% if they weren't favored by 4+ points! Moreover, underdogs seeded #5 (or better), that average 134.5 (or less) points per game, have covered 61.9%, including 8-2 ATS in the semi-final round. We'll take the points with the defensive-minded underdog in this game. Take Houston + the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

04-02-21 | Coyotes -120 v. Ducks | Top | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 20 h 33 m | Show |
At 10:05 pm, our selection is on the Arizona Coyotes over the Anaheim Ducks. In their last game, the Coyotes were embarrassed by Colorado as the Avalanche scored 9 goals on 38 shots. That 9-3 defeat was Arizona's worst loss this season, and the most goals it has given up since it lost to Detroit, 9-2, on Oct. 11, 2006. But off that defeat, we'll take the Coyotes tonight, as they're 5-0 this season after giving up 5+ goals. And looking out further finds Arizona 31-23 (+14 games on the moneyline) after allowing 4+ goals. After facing the Avalanche, there's no doubt the Coyotes will be happy to see the Ducks tonight. And Anaheim has been out-shot 122-63 over its last three games. That doesn't bode well for the Ducks tonight, as they're 1-6 after three straight games of 24 (or less) shots on goal, and 3-8 after being out-shot by 8+ shots in three straight games. Even worse: Anaheim lost the previous meeting with Arizona, 5-1. And the Ducks are 27-48 their last 75 when playing with revenge, including 0-9 this season when playing with revenge from a loss by 2+ goals. Take the Coyotes. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

04-01-21 | Stars -118 v. Predators | Top | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 15 h 24 m | Show |
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Dallas Stars over the Nashville Predators. The defending Western conference champion Stars are on a 3-game losing streak after dropping a 3-2 decision in overtime on Tuesday to these Predators. Dallas has been horrid this season when games go past regulation (2-10), so if it fails to make the playoffs, it can point to that as the reason why. We'll take Dallas tonight, as it's 81-64 (+15 games on the moneyline) off 3+ losses, while Nashville is a dreadful 21-33 (minus 24 games on the moneyline) off back-to-back wins. Even better: Dallas is 101-59 (+43 games on the moneyline) off a division road loss. Take the Stars. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

04-01-21 | 76ers -7.5 v. Cavs | Top | 114-94 | Win | 100 | 14 h 23 m | Show |
At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Philadelphia 76ers minus the points over Cleveland. The Sixers will once again play without center Joel Embiid tonight. But Cleveland's injury problems are even worse. We'll lay the points with Philly tonight, as it's playing with double-revenge from two losses to Cleveland earlier this season, including a 112-109 defeat as an 11.5-point favorite in the last meeting. The good news for Philadelphia in this game is that winning NBA teams are 93-65 ATS when laying more than 6 points against a losing team, if our winning team was playing with double revenge. Even better: if our revenger was favored by 8+ points in the previous meeting, then our 93-65 stat zooms to 28-10 ATS, including a perfect 7-0 ATS the last seven. It's true that Cleveland does come into this game off an embarrassing 39-point loss at Utah. But the Cavaliers are 0-11 ATS their last 11, and 74-125-4 ATS their last 203 off a 17-point (or worse) defeat. Take Philadelphia minus the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

04-01-21 | Blue Jackets v. Lightning -265 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 14 h 23 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Tampa Bay Lightning over Columbus. The defending Stanley Cup champions are on a rare 3-game losing streak after dropping a 3-1 decision to these Blue Jackets on Tuesday. I look for the Lightning to bounce back tonight, as they're 48-19 (+17 games on the moneyline) off a loss. And Tampa's an eye-popping 25-3 (+20 games on the moneyline) after not scoring 2+ goals in its previous game! Meanwhile, Columbus is a poor 4-9 (minus 5 games on the moneyline) off a win, and 23-36 (minus 16 games on the moneyline) when playing its 3rd road game in five days. Take the Lightning. |

04-01-21 | Capitals v. Islanders -125 | Top | 4-8 | Win | 100 | 14 h 23 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the New York Islanders over the Washington Capitals. New York returns home today after losing back-to-back games at Pittsburgh on Saturday and Monday. And the Isles also play with revenge from a 3-1 loss at Washington on March 16. The good news for New York tonight is that it's 24-16 (+7 games on the moneyline) off back to back losses. And it's 26-13 (+14 games on the moneyline) when playing with revenge from a game where it failed to score 2+ goals. Take the Islanders. |
|||||||
03-31-21 | Wild -152 v. Sharks | Top | 2-4 | Loss | -152 | 19 h 28 m | Show |
At 10:35 pm, our selection is on the Minnesota Wild over the San Jose Sharks. The Wild come into this game off a 4-3 loss to San Jose, and have 4 games against the Avalanche and Golden Knights on deck, so this game is important for Minnesota to win, as it tries to jockey for playoff positioning in the rugged West division. The Sharks are 3-10 off a win this season, and 33-41 (minus 17 games on the moneyline) after scoring more than 3 goals, while the Wild are 8-2 when playing with revenge from a loss to its opponent earlier in the season. Take Minnesota. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-31-21 | Kings v. Spurs -2 | Top | 106-120 | Win | 100 | 17 h 26 m | Show |
At 8:40 pm, our selection is on the San Antonio Spurs minus the points over Sacramento. These two teams met on Monday, here in the Alamo City. And the Kings blew out the Spurs, 132-115. We'll lay the points with the Spurs in this rematch, as the Spurs are 29-12 ATS in the regular season at home, when playing with revenge. Even better: the Spurs are 64-27 ATS off a loss by 15+ points, if they weren't an underdog of more than 2 points in their current game, and their opponent wasn't off a SU/ATS loss. And, finally, when the Spurs have played an opponent who the Spurs lost to in their previous game, they've gone 48-24-3 ATS if they were favored (or PK'em) in that next game. Take San Antonio. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-31-21 | Flyers v. Sabres +172 | Top | 1-6 | Win | 172 | 16 h 26 m | Show |
At 7:35 pm, our selection is on the Buffalo Sabres over the Philadelphia Flyers. The Sabres have tied the all-time NHL record for the most consecutive losses at 18 and tonight they "go for" the outright record. But not so fast. You have to feel that if they're going to break out of their losing ways, it's going to be against the Flyers. For one thing, it almost happened on Monday, as the Sabres raced to a 3-0 lead by the end of the second period. But the Flyers came back in the final 20 minutes to tie it and then they won it OT, thus extending the Sabres' misery. But that was the second straight Flyers-Sabres contest that had gone into overtime, and you just feel that Philly is the shakiest team -- defensively anyway -- in the division right now. So we're counting on tonight being the night that the Sabres put one up in the win column (but don't count on a win streak after that). Philly's defense and goaltending has been awful of late. In their last 12 games, the Flyers have allowed a total of 54 goals, or a GAA of 4.50. Take the Sabres. |
|||||||
03-31-21 | Maple Leafs -133 v. Jets | Top | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 16 h 25 m | Show |
At 7:35 pm, our selection is on the Toronto Maple Leafs over the Winnipeg Jets. These two teams met earlier this month in Toronto, and the Jets took 2 of 3, including the most recent meeting by a 5-2 score. We'll take Toronto to avenge that defeat, as it's 52-31 when playing with revenge, including 12-2 this season. Meanwhile, the Jets come into tonight off a 5-2 win at Calgary. But the Jets are a horrible 69-93 (minus 23 games on the moneyline) off a road win, and 2-9 at home after scoring more than 4 goals in their previous game. Take Toronto. |
|||||||
03-30-21 | Stars -114 v. Predators | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -114 | 14 h 36 m | Show |
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Dallas Stars over the Nashville Predators. These two teams have split their four meetings this season, with the Predators taking two games earlier this month and the Stars taking two back in January. But both of the March contests went to overtime shootouts, with Nashville prevailing, 4-3 both times. However, the two January games were not nearly as close, with Dallas out-scoring Nashville 10-2 over the two games. Not only that, but in the two losses this month, the Stars dominated play and out-shot the Preds by a lopsided 68-42 total. The Preds come into tonight on a five-game win streak including that last victory against tonight's opponents. Unlike the other meetings, the Preds will have to face the Stars tonight without the services of arguably their top forward, Filip Forsberg who has sat out the last two games with an upper-body injury, and is unlikely to be available. The Predators are 3-13 (-15 games on the moneyline) in their last 16 coming off two or more consecutive road victories. Take Dallas. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

03-30-21 | USC +9 v. Gonzaga | Top | 66-85 | Loss | -115 | 13 h 45 m | Show |
At 7:15 pm, our selection is on the USC Trojans + the points over Gonzaga. This season, I've largely avoided playing on or against Gonzaga. I only played on them once -- and won when they blew out Norfolk State in the opening round of this Tournament. And I also only played against them once this season (and lost), as I didn't think there were many teams that had the right mix of players to compete with Gonzaga. But USC is one of the teams that CAN compete with the Bulldogs. So, we'll grab the points with the Trojans tonight. For technical support, consider that, over the last 22 seasons, in the ELITE EIGHT round of the tournament, .700 (or better) teams seeded #4 (or worse) are a perfect 16-0-1 ATS vs. .800 (or better) opponents! And, even better, USC comes into this game off 3 dominant wins over Drake (72-56), Kansas (85-51) and Oregon (82-68). And their last two games were quite impressive, as they covered the point spread in each by double digits (Kansas +32.5; Oregon +11.5). And that leads us to our second angle, which is 20-0-1 ATS, which plays on underdogs off 2 Tourney wins, in which they covered the spread by 28+ points combined, provided their opponent was off an ATS win, but didn't also cover its two previous games by 28+ points combined. Take USC + the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-30-21 | Hornets -2.5 v. Wizards | Top | 114-104 | Win | 100 | 13 h 39 m | Show |
At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Charlotte Hornets minus the points over Washington. The Wizards pulled off an upset, 132-124, last night, as a 7-point home underdog vs. Indiana. Unfortunately, unrested teams off an upset home win, in which they scored 130+ points, have covered just 28% over the past 31 seasons. That doesn't bode well for Washington tonight. Nor does the fact that Charlotte blew it out by a 119-97 score when these two Southeast division rivals met last month. And Washington is a poor 16-36 ATS at home when playing with revenge from a 20-point (or worse) defeat when it wasn't getting 4+ points in the current game. Take Charlotte. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-30-21 | Devils v. Bruins -177 | Top | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 13 h 35 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Boston Bruins over the New Jersey Devils. Boston was shut out, 1-0, by New Jersey on Sunday. So, the Bruins will want to avenge that defeat tonight. In Sunday's loss, Boston threw 40 shots at Mackenzie Blackwood, but none got by the goalie. Interestingly, the last three times Boston had 40+ shots on goal, they lost all three games, and scored 0, 1 and 0 goals in those games! Still, if a team gets 40+ shots on goal, you will generally take your chances with the result. I look for Boston to bounce back on Tuesday, as the Devils are a horrid 31-49 (minus 35 games on the moneyline) after a road shutout win. Meanwhile, the Bruins are 21-11 (+6 games on the moneyline) off a shutout loss, and an awesome 51-21 (+18 games on the moneyline) off a strong defensive effort where they didn't allow 2+ goals. Take Boston tonight. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-29-21 | Arkansas +8 v. Baylor | Top | 72-81 | Loss | -108 | 15 h 16 m | Show |
At 9:55 pm, our selection is on the Arkansas Razorbacks + the points over Baylor. We played on the 'under' in Arkansas' previous game (a 72-70 win over Oral Roberts), which was our Sweet 16 Total of the Year. That game easily stayed under the total of 156.5, but Arkansas failed to cover the 11.5-point spread. Baylor did cover the spread in its win over Villanova, but it took a furious rush in the 2nd half for the Bears to surpass the 7.5-point spread. Off those two results, we'll take the points with the underdog Razorbacks tonight. Indeed, in the NCAA tournament, it's been very profitable to back teams off ATS losses in the Tourney, if their opponent wasn't off an ATS defeat in its previous game, provided our team wasn't laying more than 1 points. Dating back 24 years, this angle has cashed 67.2% of the time. That bodes well for Arkansas tonight. As does the fact that #1 seeds, off a double-digit win, and ATS win, have covered just 8 of 31 Elite Eight round games. Take Arkansas + the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-29-21 | Grizzlies -5 v. Rockets | Top | 120-110 | Win | 100 | 13 h 26 m | Show |
At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Memphis Grizzlies minus the points over Houston. The Rockets won for just the 2nd time over their last 24 games when the upset Minnesota, 129-107, on Saturday. But off that upset win, we'll fade Houston tonight vs. Memphis, as sub-.300 home underdogs have covered just 28% over the last 31 years off an upset road win, if they were matched up against a division opponent off a SU/ATS road loss. Take Memphis minus the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-29-21 | Islanders -105 v. Penguins | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 20 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the New York Islanders over the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Pens come into tonight's game off a 6-3 win over these Islanders. And that triumph closed the gap between the 2nd Place Isles, and 3rd Place Penguins to a mere two points. Pittsburgh has now won each of its three previous games (all at home), but will be hard-pressed to extend its win streak to four games tonight. For technical support, consider that the Pens are a dismal 16-23 (minus 13 games on the moneyline) off three straight home wins, and 70-69 (minus 22 games on the moneyline) off a win by 3+ goals over a division rival. Meanwhile, New York is 29-17 (+12 games on the moneyline) after giving up 3+ goals in each of its two previous games. Take New York. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-28-21 | UCLA v. Alabama -6.5 | Top | 88-78 | Loss | -110 | 57 h 23 m | Show |
At 7:15 pm, our selection is on the Alabama Crimson Tide minus the points over UCLA. Last Monday, we played on each of these two teams, and got the $$$ with UCLA vs. Abilene Christian, and Alabama vs. Maryland. At the start of this tournament, our projected final four was Baylor, Gonzaga, Alabama and West Virginia (with Baylor defeating Gonzaga in the final). We now have three teams remaining after WVU was knocked out by Syracuse last weekend. We'll look for Alabama to continue its strong play on this Sunday, as it comes into this Sweet 16 match-up on an 8-game win streak. In its last game, it scored 96 points, which rated as the highest amount registered by an NCAA Tourney in the 2nd round over the last 10 seasons. And NCAA Tourney teams are 96-68-2 ATS as a favorite of -6 (or more) points after scoring 88 or more in their previous game. That bodes well for the Crimson Tide on Sunday. As does the fact that teams seeded #11 (or worse) have covered just 3 of 16 Tourney games from the Sweet 16 round forward, if they were priced from +2 to +7.5 points. Finally, UCLA is a wallet-busting 1-10 ATS its last 11 games in the Sweet 16. Take Alabama to blow out the Bruins. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-28-21 | Ducks v. Blues -210 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -210 | 11 h 58 m | Show |
At 5:05 pm, our selection is on the St. Louis Blues over the Anaheim Ducks. When you look up the definition of "frustrating loss" you might just get directed to the result of the Blues game against the Anaheim Ducks on Friday. On the scoreboard, it looks like a three-goal win for the underdogs, but it was really a one-goal affair with some lucky bounces for the winners. After a scoreless first period, the Ducks got a pair in the second period including a fluky goal in the final minute. The Blues answered with a third period goal before Anaheim put a pair in an empty net in the final 1:03, resulting in a 4-1 final. Still, the Blues out-shot the Ducks 34-24 and dominated play over most of the 60 minutes. Today they have a chance to get on the right side of the score in this rematch. It could be tough for the Ducks to make it two in a row as they are just 10-28 in their last 38 coming off of a win, and 31-54 (minus 21 games on the moneyline) within the division. The Blues are 13-7 in their last 20 after three or more consecutive losses, and they're 9-3 after not scoring 3+ goals in any of their previous three games. Take St. Louis. As always, good luck...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-28-21 | Florida State +2 v. Michigan | Top | 58-76 | Loss | -102 | 2 h 52 m | Show |
At 5 pm, our selection is on the Florida State Seminoles + the points over Michigan. Both of these teams come into this game off impressive wins. Michigan fought off a game LSU team to win, 86-78, as a 4-point favorite, while Florida State blew out Colorado, 71-53, as a 1-point favorite. The Wolverines are a #1 seed, but they're only favored by a bucket today against the #4-seeded Seminoles. And this "short line" spells trouble for Juwan Howard's men, as #1 seeds are a poor 32% ATS in the Tourney's Sweet 16 and Elite 8 rounds since 2000, if they weren't favored by more than 4 points, including 2-10 ATS if their opponent won their game by more than 12 points. Florida State is 4-1-1 ATS its last 6 as an NCAA Tourney underdog. And, three years ago, as a #9-seed, it gave then-No. 3-seeded Michigan everything it could handle in a 4-point loss in the Elite 8 round. I look for FSU to pull the upset today. Take the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

03-28-21 | Mississippi State v. Memphis -4 | Top | 64-77 | Win | 100 | 6 h 49 m | Show |
At 12 Noon, on Sunday, our selection is on the Memphis Tigers minus the points over the Mississippi State Bulldogs. Yesterday we played on both Memphis (over Colorado State) and Mississippi State (over Louisiana Tech), and got the $$$ with each of them to move our mark this NIT season to 3-0-1 (or possibly 4-0). In this championship game, we'll lay the points with the Tigers, as they fall into two of my better NIT Tourney systems, with records of 58-33, 24-11; and also a general post-season Tourney system which is 161-96-4 ATS since 1990. Additionally, as I mentioned yesterday, Memphis is (now) 14-2 ATS its last 16 games, and 22-12 its last 34 post-season games. Meanwhile, Miss State is an awful 7-23 ATS off an upset win, if it wasn't getting more than 5 points in its current game (including 1-11 ATS if it won its previous game by double-digits). Take Memphis minus the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-27-21 | Jets v. Flames -119 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 6 h 16 m | Show |
At 10:05 pm, our selection is on the Calgary Flames over the Winnipeg Jets. The time for Calgary to get back into the playoff chase is getting shorter by the day. Yesterday, it lost its 4th straight game, 3-2 to these Jets, and Calgary now sits 4 points behind Montreal (but the Canadiens have played four less games). With the two #1 goalies (Jacob Markstrom, Connor Hellebuyck) having played last night, the two teams will turn to their #2 goalies for this contest (David Rittich, Laurent Brossoit). I look for Calgary to get back into the win column today, as it's cashed 63.1 the past three seasons off a 1-goal home defeat. Meanwhile, Winnipeg is a wallet-busting 14-26 off back-to-back road wins, and 11-28 on the road off 3 wins overall. Take Calgary tonight. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-27-21 | Grizzlies v. Jazz -10 | Top | 110-126 | Win | 100 | 17 h 30 m | Show |
At 9:10 pm, our selection is on the Utah Jazz minus the points over Memphis. These two teams met here in Salt Lake City last night, and the Jazz won, 117-114, as a 10-point home favorite, but failed to cover the spread. But that game was an outlier for this Memphis team, as it had been 0-12 ATS its previous 12 road games when getting more than 4 points. I look for a reversion to form tonight, and for Utah to blow out Memphis. The Jazz are 12-1 ATS at home off back to back wins, and they're also 196-142-7 ATS at home vs. unrested foes when priced from -2 to -15 points. Take the Jazz. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-27-21 | Rockets +5 v. Wolves | Top | 129-107 | Win | 100 | 16 h 31 m | Show |
At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Houston Rockets + the points over Minnesota. These two teams met last night here in the Twin Cities, and Minnesota emerged victorious with a 107-101 victory as a 4.5-point home favorite. We'll take the Rockets in the rematch, as .400 (or worse) teams have only covered the spread 33% of the time in back to back meetings since 1990, if they won the first meeting. And Houston's 79-38 ATS as a road underdog off back to back ATS losses, if they also lost their previous game, straight-up. Take the Rockets. |
|||||||
03-27-21 | Rockets v. Wolves UNDER 227.5 | Top | 129-107 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 4 m | Show |
At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the 'under' in the Houston/Minnesota game. The Rockets have gone 'under' 28-13 in 2021, including 9-1 'under' in games with O/U lines greater than 227. And they're also 13-0 'under' their last 13 when priced from +3 to +6 points. Meanwhile, Minnesota's gone 'under' 13-4 when priced as a home favorite, including 7-0 'under' when laying more than 4 points. Take the 'under.' |
|||||||
03-27-21 | Oral Roberts v. Arkansas UNDER 159 | Top | 70-72 | Win | 100 | 33 h 27 m | Show |
At 7:25 pm, our selection is on the UNDER in the game between Arkansas and Oral Roberts. The Razorbacks have played their last four games 'under' the total, and I look for another relatively-low scoring game on this Saturday. Indeed, teams that have gone under in a tournament's first two games have continued to go under 64.7% in their 3rd game of that post-season tournament. And the 'under' also falls into 86-61 and 36-20 post-season Totals systems of mine. Finally, Arkansas is 25-14 'under' in non-conference games. Take the 'under.' Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-27-21 | Mississippi State -1.5 v. Louisiana Tech | Top | 84-62 | Win | 100 | 29 h 3 m | Show |
At 3 pm, on Saturday, our selection is on Mississippi State minus the points over Louisiana Tech. Mississippi State won a thriller in the semi-final round on Thursday, when it hit a 3-pointer to garner a 68-67 victory against Richmond (though it failed to cover the 4.5-point spread). Louisiana Tech, meanwhile, knocked out fellow Conference USA member Western Kentucky, 72-65, as a 1-point favorite. These two teams actually met last season, and Louisiana Tech went into Starkville and upset Miss State, 74-67, as a 7.5-point road dog. But that sets up our play on this Saturday, as Mississippi State falls into 37-20 and 76-32 ATS revenge systems of mine. Additionally, Mississippi State is an awesome 73-30 ATS when playing with revenge if it is not off a SU/ATS win, including a perfect 5-0 ATS in the post-season. Finally, Miss State falls into 24-5, 9-1, 129-91, 28-7, and 83-55 ATS post-season systems of mine. Lay the points with Mississippi State. Good luck, as always....Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-27-21 | Memphis -4 v. Colorado State | Top | 90-67 | Win | 100 | 26 h 0 m | Show |
At 12 Noon, on Saturday, our selection is on the Memphis Tigers minus the points over Colorado State. These two teams were both given #1 seeds by the NIT Tournament committee. The Tigers earned their berth into this semi-final round with a 69-66 triumph over Boise State, while Colorado State dispatched North Carolina State with a 4-point upset win, 65-61, as a 2-point underdog. Unfortunately for Boise, in the post-season, teams seeded #3 (or better) are a soft 100-138 ATS off an upset win, if installed as an underdog of +1.5 (or more) points. Memphis also is 13-2 ATS its last 15 games, and 21-12 ATS its last 33 post-season games, while Boise is 4-10 ATS in the post-season vs. non-conference foes. Take the Tigers minus the points. Good luck as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-26-21 | Suns -4.5 v. Raptors | Top | 104-100 | Loss | -108 | 10 h 45 m | Show |
At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Phoenix Suns minus the points over Toronto. The Suns pulled a clunker on Wednesday night, as they were upset by the Magic, 112-111, as a 9.5-point road favorite. But we'll look for Phoenix to rebound tonight, as it's 12-1 ATS its last 13, and 44-13 ATS its last 57, off an upset road loss, including 8-0 ATS vs. an opponent off an upset win. With Toronto, indeed, off an upset of Denver in its last game, we'll fade the Raptors tonight. Take Phoenix minus the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-25-21 | Golden Knights v. Avalanche -157 | Top | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 15 h 14 m | Show |
At 9 pm, our selection is on the Colorado Avalanche over the Vegas Golden Knights. Last season, our preseason pick to win the Stanley Cup was on Tampa Bay, and we cashed the Lightning at 7-1 odds. This season, our choice was Colorado, also at 7-1 odds. The Avalanche got off to a slower-than-expected start, but have come on strong lately to get to within 2 points of the Golden Knights for 1st place in the division. So, this 2-game series here in Denver could catapult the Avs to the top of the standings. The Avalanche are 7-1 in their last eight games, and have outscored their opponents by 36-13 over those eight games (including a 6-0 mark in regulation). Colorado did lose the previous meeting this season against Vegas. But that's not necessarily a bad thing, as they Avalanche are 9-0 this season when playing with revenge. And over the last 3 seasons, Colorado is 34-18 (+18 games on the moneyline) when playing with revenge from a loss by 2+ goals. Meanwhile, Vegas does come into this game off a blowout 5-1 win. But the Golden Knights are a poor 8-11 (minus 10 games on the moneyline) off a win by more than 3 goals. Take Colorado. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-25-21 | Clippers v. Spurs +6.5 | Top | 98-85 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 49 m | Show |
At 8:40 pm, our selection is on the San Antonio Spurs + the points over Los Angeles. The Clippers led wire-to-wire last night, and blew out San Antonio, 134-101. Off that blowout defeat, we'll back San Antonio tonight in the rematch. For technical support, consider that San Antonio is 29-11 ATS its last 40 at home in the regular season when playing with revenge. Likewise, the Clippers are an awful 15-38 ATS off a SU/ATS win, when favored by 4+ points against a revenge-minded foe. And, league-wide, NBA home dogs of +6 (or more) points, that lost by 19+ points the previous day at home, have cashed 61.1% over the past 31 seasons. Take San Antonio. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-24-21 | Kings -102 v. Sharks | Top | 2-4 | Loss | -102 | 16 h 27 m | Show |
At 10:35 pm, our selection is on the Los Angeles Kings over San Jose. We played on the Sharks when these teams met two nights ago, and got the $$$$ in a thrilling 2-1 victory which saw San Jose's netminder, Martin Jones (and the post behind him), make some incredible saves late in the game to preserve the win. Los Angeles peppered Jones with 42 shots, but just were unable to catch a break. Cal Petersen (92.6% Saves Pct.) was given that game off in favor of the veteran goalie, Jonathan Quick (89.8% Saves Pct.), but Petersen should be back in goal for the Kings tonight. We'll take the Kings, as San Jose is a poor 2-9 off a win, while L.A. is a solid 36-32 (+16 games on the moneyline) when playing with revenge. Take Los Angeles. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

03-24-21 | Nets v. Jazz -7 | Top | 88-118 | Win | 100 | 15 h 28 m | Show |
At 10:10 pm, our selection is on the Utah Jazz minus the points over Brooklyn. This is a huge revenge game for the Jazz, who suffered their worst loss of this season earlier this year against the Nets. Brooklyn won that game by 34 points. But tonight's game is a great set-up for the homestanding Jazz. Brooklyn had to play Portland last night in a game which went down to the wire. The Nets did win that game (their second straight), but teams off back-to-back wins are a wallet-busting 31-54 ATS when playing without rest on the road against a rested Jazz team, and not getting more than 10 points. And rested Northwest division teams, with a .600 (or better) record, are 91-54 ATS in the regular season off a win, if they were playing with revenge. Take Utah to blow out Brooklyn. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-24-21 | Clippers v. Spurs +6 | Top | 134-101 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 32 m | Show |
At 8:40 pm, our selection is on the San Antonio Spurs + the points over Los Angeles. The Spurs already defeated the Clippers once this season. And they'll get two more tries at it this week, as this is the first of a 2-game home series vs. ex-Spur Kawhi Leonard's Clippers. The Spurs come into this game off back to back losses to Milwaukee + Charlotte. But San Antone is 86-50 ATS at home off an upset loss as a 3-point (or greater) favorite. Take the Spurs as a home underdog. |
|||||||
03-24-21 | Grizzlies -4.5 v. Thunder | Top | 116-107 | Win | 100 | 13 h 46 m | Show |
At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Memphis Grizzlies minus the points over Oklahoma City. The Thunder finished off their four-game road trip with back to back upset wins over the Houston Rockets and Minnesota Timberwolves. But those two teams have a combined record of 22-63. Memphis, on the other hand, is a .500 ball club. It's true that OKC recently upset Memphis, 128-122, as a 9.5-point home underdog, on March 14. But the Grizz are an awesome 27-5 ATS when playing with revenge against an opponent off a win, when Memphis not getting more than 7 points. And losing teams are a poor 61-100 ATS as underdogs when playing a revenge-minded team they upset as 9-point (or greater) underdogs in the previous meeting. Take Memphis minus the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-24-21 | Coastal Carolina +5 v. Pepperdine | Top | 61-84 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 51 m | Show |
At 8 pm, our selection is on the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers + the points over Pepperdine. We succesfully played on the underdog Stetson Hatters not once, but twice, in the first two rounds of this CBI Tournament. Yesterday's ATS win by Stetson came at the expense of this Coastal Carolina team, though Coastal was able to survive in overtime to win by 5, as a 7.5-point favorite. And Stetson's ATS success continued a long-term trend in this CBI Tournament which has favored taking the points, as underdogs are now 110-93 ATS, including 55-38 ATS off a point spread defeat. That bodes well for Coastal Carolina tonight. As does the fact that Pepperdine is a horrible 34-57-1 ATS as a favorite vs. non-conference foes, while Coastal Carolina is 19-7 ATS as an underdog vs. non-conference foes, if the Chanticleers won their previous game. Take Coastal Carolina + the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-24-21 | Nuggets v. Raptors +1.5 | Top | 111-135 | Win | 100 | 14 h 31 m | Show |
At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Toronto Raptors over the Denver Nuggets. The Nuggets won at Orlando lat night, 110-99. But off that win, we will fade Nikola Jokic & Co. this evening. Indeed, Denver is a dreadful 3-19 ATS as a road favorite off a win by more than 8 points. Meanwhile, Toronto is 95-62 ATS off back to back losses. I look for Nick Nurse's men to snap their losing streak tonight. Take Toronto. |
|||||||
03-24-21 | Flames -168 v. Senators | Top | 1-3 | Loss | -168 | 11 h 58 m | Show |
At 5:05 pm, our selection is on the Calgary Flames over the Ottawa Senators. The lowly Senators shocked the Flames on Monday night, taking a hard-fought 2-1 decision despite being out-shot by a whopping 36-23. They go for the two-game sweep tonight but the problem is they've only done that once previously this season and that was on February 21 and 23 when they took two straight over the Habs, both in OT. It's amazing that the Sens are able to win any games right now when you consider the goalie injuries they've had this season. It's rare for an NHL team to have its first two net-minders on the depth chart unavailable due to injury -- so what are the odds that three would be down for the count at the same time? But that's the situation in Ottawa right now with Murray (upper body), Hogberg (lower body), and Daccord (lower body) all out of action. Not surprisingly, Ottawa has the worst GAA of any team in the league at 3.82. The Senators are 3-15 (-12 games on the moneyline) in their last 18 off a home win vs. a division rival. Take Calgary. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

03-23-21 | Nets v. Blazers -1.5 | Top | 116-112 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 13 m | Show |
At 10:10 pm, our selection is on the Portland Trail Blazers minus the points over Brooklyn. We played against Portland on Sunday, and got the $$$ when Dallas blew them out by 40 points, 132-92. We'll take the Trail Blazers to bounce back on Tuesday, as rested home teams have gone 61% ATS off a blowout home loss by 25+ points, if they were matched up against a winning opponent which won its previous game. Take the Trail Blazers. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-23-21 | Devils v. Flyers -155 | Top | 4-3 | Loss | -155 | 13 h 13 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Philadelphia Flyers over the New Jersey Devils. The Devils beat the Penguins in Pittsburgh on Sunday, 2-1 in OT, giving them a series win two-games-to-one. But we've seen in the past that the Pens are a different team without star Evgeni Malkin and they were without him for all three of the Devils games over the weekend. For the Flyers, they lost a tough one last night to the Islanders in OT despite out-playing and out-shooting New York by a lopsided 37-20 margin. These two teams haven't met in almost two months with the Flyers taking both games played at the end of January in Jersey, 5-3 and 3-1. In fact with those two victories, the Flyers have now won five of the last six meetings with the Devils going back to March of 2019. The Devils are 3-12 (-10 games on the moneyline) in their last 15 coming off of a road victory by one goal. And they are 24-45 (-11 games on the moneyline) in their last 69 revenging a same season loss against an opponent. Take the Flyers. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

03-23-21 | Stetson +7.5 v. Coastal Carolina | Top | 72-77 | Win | 100 | 12 h 36 m | Show |
At 5:30 pm, our selection is on the Stetson Hatters + the points over Coastal Carolina. We played on Stetson yesterday as a huge underdog (opened +9.5, closed +6.5) vs. Bowling Green, and the Hatters won outright, 53-52. We'll come right back with Stetson today as an underdog vs. Coastal Carolina. The Chanticleers are a poor 6-13 ATS as a favorite priced from -6.5 to -20 points, including 1-6 ATS off a win by more than 5 points, and 0-9 ATS if they didn't have a losing record against the spread. Likewise, favorites of 6+ points have burned money in the CBI Tournament, including 16-35 ATS their last 51. Finally, Atlantic Sun Conference teams have gone 49-33 in the post-season vs. non-conference foes, including 34-20 ATS as an underdog of 5+ points, and 16-7 ATS if they covered the spread by 6+ points in their previous game. Grab the points with the Hatters. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-22-21 | Kings v. Sharks -123 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 14 h 28 m | Show |
At 10:35 pm, our selection is on the San Jose Sharks over the Los Angeles Kings. For the better part of the last dozen years, when you thought of the Kings, you thought of one man in goal -- Jonathan Quick. There were several seasons where Quick was at or near the top of the league in games started between the pipes. But at age 35, Quick's days in the NHL are clearly numbered and now it seems he is at best a co-number one goalie for Los Angeles. Drafted by Buffalo in 2015, 26-year-old Cal Petersen appears to be the heir-apparent to Quick and in fact he has played in more games (16 to 13) and has better numbers so far. Petersen was in goal last night at home for the Kings' upset victory over the Knights so with the overnight turnaround and travel north, it will be Quick who goes tonight in San Jose. These two have split the first two meetings this season, with the Kings winning the last one on February 11 so this is a revenge situation for San Jose. Despite their win last night, the Kings are just 3-8 in their last 11. Take the Sharks. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

03-22-21 | USC v. Kansas | Top | 85-51 | Win | 100 | 5 h 19 m | Show |
At 9:40 pm, our selection is on the USC Trojans over Kansas. Going into this tournament, the Big 10 Conference was the nation's best. But we're 45 games in, and just Michigan and Maryland remain. Iowa, Wisconsin, Ohio State, Rutgers, Illinois, Michigan State and Purdue have all been sent packing. Not surprisingly, the Big 10 has gone a collective 5-8 ATS. Meanwhile, the Pac-12 conference has been perfect. And not just on the scoreboard, but also "in Vegas," as the conference from the Left Coast is 7-0 SU/ATS. UCLA, Oregon, Oregon State, Colorado and USC have done the Pac-12 proud, although three of the teams are still left to play today. One is USC, which will take on Big 12-member Kansas tonight (the Big 12 teams will be 5-7 ATS if Oklahoma can't come back on Gonzaga (they're down 17, as of this writing)). We'll take the Trojans in this game, as they fall into a 69-30 ATS 2nd Round system of mine, which goes against Kansas off its 93-84 win over Eastern Washington. Additionally, the Jayhawks failed to cover the spread against Eastern Washington, and are just 2-7 ATS vs. non-conference foes this season (and 0-6 ATS when not favored by 20+ points). Meanwhile, the Trojans are 5-3 ATS vs. non-conference foes, including a perfect 4-0 ATS when priced from +2 to -13 points. Take USC. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-22-21 | Maryland v. Alabama -5.5 | Top | 77-96 | Win | 100 | 13 h 37 m | Show |
At 8:45 pm, our selection is on the Alabama Crimson Tide minus the points over Maryland. The Crimson Tide won the SEC Conference Tournament, and then defeated Iona in the opening round. They'll now take on the Maryland Terrapins, who upset UConn in its first game. Unfortunately for the Terrapins, underdogs off upset wins in the first round of the Tournament, priced from +4.5 to +10 points, have covered just 13 of 41 vs. foes that won their conference tournament. Lay the points with Alabama. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-22-21 | LSU v. Michigan -4.5 | Top | 78-86 | Win | 100 | 11 h 1 m | Show |
At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Michigan Wolverines minus the points over LSU. The #1-seeded Wolverines enter this game on their first 2-game point spread losing streak of the season. I like Michigan to bounce back tonight, as #1 seeds off back to back ATS losses have gone 30-3 SU and 22-10-1 ATS. And Michigan is 8-1 ATS its last 9, and 18-6 ATS its last 24 post-season games off a point spread defeat. Lay the points with the Wolverines. |
|||||||
03-22-21 | Hurricanes -157 v. Blue Jackets | Top | 3-0 | Win | 100 | 11 h 57 m | Show |
At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Carolina Hurricanes over the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Blue Jackets are the overtime kings of the league lately, with each of their last five games going beyond the mandatory 60 minutes. And the good news is that they've been victorious in three of those five, including the last two which have come against tonight's opponents, the Hurricanes. The bad news is that they will be without their #1 center, Alexandre Texier, who has been added to the COVID-19 protocol list (he apparently has a non-COVID illness) and will not be with the team today. Carolina's number one goalie Petr Mrazek is still out with an injured thumb (he should be back in a couple of weeks) but back-up James Reimer has filled in very well in the meantime. Carolina lost its last two to the Jackets at home and they come into Columbus tonight trying to right a three-game losing streak. The 'Canes are 11-5 in their last 16 after losing their previous game in OT and they're also 10-5 in their last 15 after losing three-in-a-row. Take Carolina. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

03-22-21 | Ohio v. Creighton -5 | Top | 58-72 | Win | 100 | 10 h 3 m | Show |
At 6:10 pm, our selection is on the Creighton Bluejays minus the points over Ohio. The Bobcats shocked the defending National Champion Virginia Cavaliers on Saturday, as they won 62-58, as a 7-point underdog. And that was Ohio's 4th straight win and cover. But off that big upset win, we will fade the #13 seed this evening. Indeed, teams seeded 12th (or worse) have covered just 20% in the 2nd Round of the Tournament when installed as an underdog of 7 or less points, if they were off 2 SU/ATS wins, and their opponent was not. And Mid-American Conference teams off a SU/ATS win are a soft 9-19 ATS in the Tourneys against non-conference foes not off an ATS win. Finally, Creighton has covered 86% over the last 31 seasons off back to back ATS losses, if its opponent was off 3 SU/ATS wins. Lay the points with the Bluejays today. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-22-21 | Abilene Christian v. UCLA -4.5 | Top | 47-67 | Win | 100 | 9 h 6 m | Show |
At 5:15 pm, our selection is on the UCLA Bruins minus the points over Abilene Christian. The Bruins drew a short straw and was forced to play a "First Four" game in order to qualify for the first round of the tournament. The Bruins won that game against Michigan State, and then used it as a springboard to upset BYU on Thursday. I won't step in front of the Bruins today, as teams seeded 5th (or worse) off a Tourney win, have gone 16-0-1 ATS when favored by more than 4 points against a .715 (or better) foe. Take UCLA. |
|||||||
03-22-21 | Stetson +9.5 v. Bowling Green | Top | 53-52 | Win | 100 | 27 h 55 m | Show |
At 11:30 am, on Monday, in the CBI Tournament, our selection is on the Stetson Hatters + the points over Bowling Green. The Falcons find themselves installed as a big favorite in this game, even though it comes into this game off back to back SU/ATS losses to Miami and Akron. Unfortunately, Bowling Green has been dreadful when laying points, as its 9-27-3 ATS its last 39, including 0-15-3 ATS off a point spread loss. We'll grab the points with Stetson, as it also falls into a 33-7 ATS Tourney system of mine. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-21-21 | Mavs -1.5 v. Blazers | Top | 132-92 | Win | 100 | 14 h 37 m | Show |
At 10:10 pm, our selection is on the Dallas Mavericks over the Portland Trail Blazers. Dallas lost by 6 points here to the Blazers on Friday. But the Mavs are 100-50 ATS off a road loss, when playing a non-division foe off a win. Take Dallas to avenge that defeat. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-21-21 | Oregon State v. Oklahoma State -6 | Top | 80-70 | Loss | -104 | 13 h 19 m | Show |
At 9:40 pm, our selection is on the Oklahoma State Cowboys minus the points over Oregon State. The Beavers won their fourth straight game as an underdog when they stunned Tennessee, 70-56, on Friday. Unfortunately, teams off 4+ upset wins have covered just 33% in the NCAA Tournament over the last 31 years, including just 11% in the Tourney's first two rounds. Moreover, the Beavers are a poor 7-20-1 ATS off 4+ wins. Take the Cowboys on Sunday night. Good luck, always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-21-21 | North Texas v. Villanova -5 | Top | 61-84 | Win | 100 | 12 h 18 m | Show |
At 8:45 pm, our selection is on the Villanova Wildcats minus the points over North Texas. The #13-seeded Mean Green shocked Purdue, in Overtime, on Friday, while Villanova sent Winthrop packing with a 73-63 win. That was Winthrop's second straight win, which doesn't bode well for it today, as NCAA teams have cashed just 29% in the tourney's 2nd round off back to back upset wins. Take the Wildcats minus the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-21-21 | Oral Roberts v. Florida -8.5 | Top | 81-78 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 9 m | Show |
At 7:45 pm, our selection is on the Florida Gators minus the points over Oral Roberts. The Eagles advanced to this round with a huge upset win, in overtime, against Ohio State, as a #15 seed. But #15 seeds have not fared well in the Tournament when they were getting 16 or less points, as they've covered just nine of 29. Even worse for ORU tonight is the fact that underdogs, seeded #12 or worse, are a horrid 0-14 SU and 1-12-1 ATS off an overtime victory in the NCAA Tournament. Lay the points with Florida. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
|||||||
03-21-21 | Raptors -7.5 v. Cavs | Top | 105-116 | Loss | -101 | 11 h 38 m | Show |
At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Toronto Raptors minus the points over Cleveland. Toronto finally is getting its full team back on the hardwood. So, it will have to quickly get back into the win column, if it is to make a run at the post season. Tonight, it will attempt to snap its 7-game losing streak, and we'll lay the points, as Cleveland is a poor 6-18 ATS off a point spread loss. Meanwhile, NBA favorites of more than 6 points, have cashed 62% off 6+ losses over the past 31 years. Take Toronto. |
|||||||
03-21-21 | Wizards v. Nets -8 | Top | 106-113 | Loss | -114 | 11 h 36 m | Show |
At 7:15 pm, our selection is on the Brooklyn Nets minus the points over Washington. The Nets lost a rare ballgame on Friday, as they fell to Orlando, 121-113, as an 11-point road favorite. But off that loss, we'll lay the points with Brooklyn tonight, as home teams have cashed 79.1% over the last 31 years off an outright loss as a road favorite of more than 10 points, if their opponent was off a win. With the Wizards, indeed, off a win over Utah, we'll take Brooklyn to blowout Washington. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
