10-09-20 | Heat v. Lakers OVER 216 | 111-108 | Win | 100 | 24 h 53 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Miami and Los Angeles at 9 pm et on Friday. We won with the 'over' in Game 2 of this series which was the highest scoring game of the series to date. I won't hesitate to go back to the well with the same play in what could be the clincher for the Lakers on Friday night. The Heat have obviously not backed down at any point in these playoffs and I'm confident we'll see them bring their best effort on Friday. If they're going to extend the series they're obviously going to need to shoot much better than they did in Game 4, when they connected on just 43% of their field goal attempts. On the flip side, I think we can expect a better shooting performance from the Lakers after they made good on just 44% of their attempts in Game 4. We've once again seen a downward shift in the posted total, which much like in Game 2, plays right into our favor here. Take the over (10*). |

10-09-20 | Louisville v. Georgia Tech UNDER 64.5 | 27-46 | Loss | -112 | 22 h 50 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Louisville and Georgia Tech at 7 pm et on Friday. We're dealing with a very high posted total for this one considering neither offense is all that complex or difficult to prepare for and both teams are coming off a bye week so they've had plenty of time to get ready. Louisville will be desperate to get back on track following consecutive losses to Miami and Pittsburgh. Likewise for Georgia Tech, even if its hopes weren't quite as high as those of the Cardinals entering the season. The Yellow Jackets have dropped consecutive games in blowout fashion against Central Florida and Syracuse. Note that Georgia Tech has yet to score more than 21 points in a game this season. The last meeting between these two teams totaled 94 points but that was back in 2018. Here, I'm anticipating a lower-scoring affair than most. Take the under (10*). |

10-08-20 | Bucs v. Bears UNDER 44.5 | Top | 19-20 | Win | 100 | 24 h 31 m | Show |
TNF Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Tampa Bay and Chicago at 8:20 pm et on Thursday. We missed the mark with the 'under' in the Bucs wild, high-scoring win over the Chargers last Sunday but did manage to cash the 'under' in the Bears blowout loss to the Colts. Here, I'll stick with the 'under' as these two 3-1 teams do battle. Playing on a short week the Bucs are in tough with a number of key cogs banged up on offense. Chris Godwin and O.J. Howard have both shown some good chemistry with Tom Brady in the early going but now both are sidelined. Meanwhile, Tampa Bay's backfield continues to deal with a number of injuries as well. Of course they'll be up against an above average Bears defense, on the road no less, on a short week. I have very little faith in the Nick Foles-led Bears offense right now and if you've followed my plays regularly this season you know that I'm high on the Bucs defense. Note that Tampa Bay is giving up just 2.4 yards per rush this season and that really hamstrings a struggling Bears offense. Outside of WR Allen Robinson, there's really no one all that imposing on the Chicago offense. This has the makings of a relatively low-scoring affair. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
10-07-20 | Rays v. Yankees UNDER 9 | Top | 8-4 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 19 m | Show |
MLB American League Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between New York and Tampa Bay at 7:10 pm et on Wednesday. There's a lot of talk of 'juiced balls' thanks to a high-scoring start to the MLB Division Series'. I'm not buying it and expect a return to 'normal' as the Yankees and Rays play their third game in as many days on Wednesday. This series has obviously featured a ton of runs on the strength of plenty of long balls. I look for things to settle down in this one as two veteran starters take the hill in Masahiro Tanaka and Charlie Morton. Morton didn't get a start in the brief Wild Card round so he'll be eager to take the ball here. Keep in mind, this will be his ninth career playoff start having posted a 3.70 ERA and 1.23 WHIP. Tanaka will be making his tenth career playoff start having recorded an even better 2.70 ERA and 0.88 WHIP (despite an ugly start against Cleveland last week). Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
10-05-20 | Falcons v. Packers OVER 56.5 | 16-30 | Loss | -109 | 25 h 48 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Atlanta and Green Bay at 8:50 pm et on Monday. This is the being pegged as an explosive shootout by the oddsmakers and I tend to agree. The Falcons have to be in desperation mode at this point and they do draw a favorable matchup against a very beatable Packers defense. The strength of Atlanta is obviously in its offense and while Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley are questionable to play I would bank on one, if not both of the Falcons offense stars suiting up. It may not even matter as Atlanta should find success moving the football on the ground as well with Green Bay having allowed north of five yards per rush this season. The Packers offense is red hot entering this matchup and should face little resistance from a non-existent Falcons defense. Note that Packers QB Aaron Rodgers has absolutely eviscerated the Falcons lately, passing for over 1,000 yards, 11 touchdowns and just two interceptions in his last four games against them. He loses WR Allen Lazard but should have superstar Davante Adams back on the field. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
10-05-20 | Astros v. A's UNDER 8 | 10-5 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 8 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Houston and Oakland at 4:07 pm et on Monday. Neither of these teams hit the ball well during the Wild Card round and I'm anticipating some carry-over following an extended layoff heading into the ALDS. Lance McCullers Jr. has made a successful comeback this season and is a proven playoff performer having posted a career 2.53 ERA in the postseason. I like his chances of holding down an average A's offense here. Meanwhile, Oakland starter Chris Bassitt continues to exceed expectations after turning in a critically important strong outing for the A's against the White Sox last week. In a favored role here I'm confident Bassitt will turn in another sharp performance. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
10-04-20 | Colts v. Bears UNDER 43.5 | 19-11 | Win | 100 | 76 h 23 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Indianapolis and Chicago at 1 pm et on Sunday. While scoring is up across the league through the first three weeks of the season, I'm anticipating a relatively low-scoring affair in Chicago on Sunday afternoon. The Colts should continue to pound away on the ground behind standout rookie RB Jonathan Taylor. QB Philip Rivers has been relegated to 'game manager' status in the latter stages of his career and he should be firmly planted in that role against a solid Bears defense on Sunday. Meanwhile, the Chicago offense will turn to QB Nick Foles after he rallied the team to a come-from-behind win in Atlanta last Sunday. Don't count on another sharp performance from Foles here as he faces an above average but perhaps still underrated Colts defense. We won with the 'over' in the Bears victory over the Falcons last week, but I won't hesitate to go the other way and back the 'under' in this one. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
10-04-20 | Chargers v. Bucs UNDER 43.5 | 31-38 | Loss | -110 | 73 h 55 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Los Angeles and Tampa Bay at 1 pm et on Sunday. The Bucs defense remains an underrated unit, perhaps overshadowed by the team's star-laden offense. Note that the Bucs run defense is allowing under three yards per rush this season. Here, I look for the Tampa Bay defense to dominate a struggling Chargers offense led by rookie QB Justin Herbert. Los Angeles' 2020 campaign pretty much got derailed before it started due to a number of key injuries on both sides of the football. Coming off a discouraging home loss to the Panthers last week there's little reason to anticipate a big bounce-back performance, particularly from the Chargers offense, here. Look for the Bucs to continue to pound away long, clock churning drives on their way to a third straight victory, helping cash 'under' tickets in the process. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
10-04-20 | Vikings v. Texans OVER 54.5 | 31-23 | Loss | -110 | 73 h 52 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Minnesota and Houston at 1 pm et on Sunday. We won with the 'over' in the Vikings narrow 31-30 home loss to the Titans last week and I'll go right back to the well with the same play as Minnesota travels to face the reeling Texans on Sunday afternoon. This is another prime blow-up spot for Vikings RB Dalvin Cook as he faces a Houston defense that has been shredded for nearly six yards per rush this season. Even QB Kirk Cousins is set up for success given the Texans complete inability to pressure opposing quarterbacks. On the flip side, the Texans finally catch a scheduling break here after a tough three-game slate to open the season (Chiefs, Ravens and Steelers). The Vikings defense is a shell of its former self due to injuries and offseason departures. Like the Houston defense, Minnesota hasn't been able to get to opposing quarterbacks and figures to struggle against big-time playmaker QB DeShaun Watson in this one. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
10-04-20 | Jaguars v. Bengals OVER 49 | Top | 25-33 | Win | 100 | 73 h 43 m | Show |
NFL AFC Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'over' between Jacksonville and Cincinnati at 1 pm et on Sunday. I'm expecting a shootout between these two AFC bottom-feeders on Sunday afternoon in Cincinnati. Jacksonville got stymied by the Dolphins of all teams in last week's Thursday nighter. It's interesting that most had high hopes for the Jags Gardner Minshew-led offense heading into that game (myself included) but are now quick to write them off. I'm confident we'll see a big bounce-back performance from the Jags offense against a very beatable Bengals defense on Sunday afternoon. Jacksonville is set up well to open things up given Cincinnati has done little to slow opposing ground attacks, allowing north of 5.2 yards per rush this season. Meanwhile, the Bengals offense has plenty of upside with QB Joe Burrow moving the football consistently in an up-tempo attack. With Jacksonville showing some ability to shut down opposing running games, look for Burrow to take to the air and expose a very beatable Jags secondary in this one. While A.J. Green has been a virtual no-show, the rest of the Bengals receivers have been quietly performing well and building a nice rapport with the rookie Burrow. Look for continued progression from the Cincinnati offense on Sunday. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
10-02-20 | Heat v. Lakers OVER 216 | Top | 114-124 | Win | 100 | 12 h 37 m | Show |
NBA Finals Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'over' between Miami and Los Angeles at 9 pm et on Friday. This total is going the wrong way in my opinion following an 'under' result in Game 1. Keep in mind, prior to that relatively low-scoring series-opening result, seven straight games involving these two teams (in the Conference Finals) had gone 'over' the total we're dealing with here in Game 2. The Heat will likely be undermanned in this one with Bam Adebayo dealing with a neck strain. His absence shouldn't be underestimated as he was named to the NBA All-Defensive Second Team just last month. I do think we'll see the Heat punch back after their no-show in Game 1, although the lopsided spread would seem to indicate otherwise. In fact, neither team performed quite up to standards offensively in the series-opener - yet the final score still nearly eclipsed the total. Even the Lakers have room for impnrovement offensively. I expect a different story to unfold here on Friday night and we're being offered a very reasonable total. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
10-02-20 | Cardinals v. Padres OVER 9 | Top | 0-4 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 7 m | Show |
MLB Wild Card Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'over' between St. Louis and San Diego at 7:08 pm et on Friday. We've seen two wild, high-scoring games to open this series with a grand total of 31 runs scored and the amazing thing is, were it not for some absent clutch hitting from the Padres in Game 1, that total could be much higher. Here, I expect more of the same as we should see the two overworked bullpens log plenty of innings in this third and deciding game. The Padres seem to still be uncertain of who will start this game but Mike Clevinger's name has been tossed around as he looks to return from an elbow injury. Jack Flaherty will start for the Cardinals. He simply hasn't lived up to expectations following a stellar 2019 campaign. While Petco Park has always been known as a pitcher's park, the Padres have certainly turned that idea on its head here in 2020. Look for the scoring barrage to continue on Friday evening. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-30-20 | Yankees v. Indians UNDER 8 | Top | 10-9 | Loss | -104 | 11 h 22 m | Show |
MLB Total of the Week. My selection is on the 'under' between New York and Cleveland at 7:08 pm et on Wednesday. The opener of this series totaled 15 runs last night with the Yankees bats ambushing one of the best starters in baseball in Shane Bieber. Here, I look for a much lower-scoring affair as two veteran starters take the mound in a critical Game 2. Masahiro Tanaka was an All-Star for the first time since his rookie season in 2014 last year and actually improved on his numbers here in 2020. Tanaka posted more strikeouts per nine innings, fewer walks and fewer hits (all stats per nine innings). I look for him to keep an average Indians offense at bay on Wednesday night. Cookie Carrasco will counter for Cleveland. He recorded his highest strikeouts per nine innings of his career during the regular season while also cutting his home runs allowed (per nine innings) virtually in half compared to last year. That's not to mention the fact he allowed his fewest hits per nine innings since the 2014 season. The Indians bullpen was solid down the stretch, recording a 3.59 ERA over the final two weeks of the regular season and while the Yankees 'pen wasn't nearly as good, I'm confident it can hold up against the Cleveland bats. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-27-20 | Titans v. Vikings OVER 49.5 | Top | 31-30 | Win | 100 | 71 h 15 m | Show |
NFL Non-Conference Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'over' between Tennessee and Minnesota at 1 pm et on Sunday. When you think Titans and Vikings the first thing that comes to mind might not be 'shootout' but I believe that's precisely what we're in for on Sunday afternoon. It's desperation time for the Vikings after suffering back-to-back beatdowns at the hands of the Packers and Colts. The good news is this matchup could play right into their struggling offense's hands - or more specifically the legs of RB Dalvin Cook. The Titans have had a tough time stopping the run in the early going this season, allowing a whopping 5.15 yards per rush to enemy backs. Here, we can expect them to have their hands full stopping Cook, while also missing some key cogs in their secondary, improving the chances of WR Adam Thielen going off. On the flip side, the injury-plagued Vikings defense isn't likely to slow an underrated Titans offense. Without DE Danielle Hunter the Vikes haven't shown any semblance of a pass rush and a clean pocket should serve Ryan Tannehill well in this one. Meanwhile, RB Derrick Henry should find plenty of room to run against a Vikes front that will be without LB Anthony Barr. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-27-20 | Washington Football Team v. Browns UNDER 45 | 20-34 | Loss | -107 | 70 h 3 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Washington and Cleveland at 1 pm et on Sunday. The Browns are going to have to show me a little more consistency before I start believing in their offense. They exploded against the Bengals last week but that shouldn't have come as a big surprise as Cincinnati boasts one of the league's weakest defenses and the game was played on a short week. Here, Cleveland will face a Washington defense that can get after the quarterback. The Washington offense got stuck in the mud last Sunday in Arizona, only managing a couple of late touchdown scores (and failed two-point conversions that cost us our 'over' ticket). The jury is still out on QB Dwayne Haskins. We did see Washington's offense put up some points in Week 1 but that was only thanks to their defense setting them up with short field after short field in the second half. I don't believe we'll see the Washington pass rush obliterate a solid Cleveland offensive line the way it did Philadelphia in that contest. Look for Baker Mayfield to take a backseat to Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt in this one as the Browns control the game flow and ultimately churn away the clock in a relatively low-scoring affair. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-26-20 | Stephen F Austin v. SMU OVER 60.5 | 7-50 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 5 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Stephen F. Austin and SMU at 7 pm et on Saturday. This game has shootout written all over it as SMU looks to continue its hot start against FCS squad Stephen F. Austin. Mustangs QB Shane Buechele has picked up right where he left off last season, throwing for over 700 yards and five touchdowns through two games this season. There's little reason to expect him to ease up against the Lumberjacks on Saturday night. Meanwhile, the SMU backfield has been absolutely rolling and faces another favorable matchup here. On the flip side, SFA QB Trae Self showed some progression in last week's loss, passing for 285 yards and a touchdown after struggling in the season-opener. Keep in mind, the Mustangs have already given up 59 points in two games this season and it's not as if they've faced top level competition. SMU has posted victories against Texas State and North Texas. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-25-20 | Lightning v. Stars UNDER 5 | 5-4 | Loss | -100 | 31 h 49 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Tampa Bay and Dallas at 8:05 pm et on Friday. Game 3 was an anomaly in this series as the contest quickly got away from the Stars and it ultimately turned out to be a high-scoring affair. I expect a return to 'normal' on Friday as I don't see the winning side topping out north of three goals. I've noted throughout this series that some regression was coming from Stars goaltender Anton Khudobin given all the hockey he's played in the last two months. Well, we finally saw him lay an egg in Game 3 but I'm confident he'll come back strong on Friday. Meanwhile, the Stars have yet to show that they can really hang with the Bolts offensively. Dallas is here thanks to a stingy style of play that has worked throughout these playoffs. Look for the Stars to get back to that in a tightly-contested, low-scoring Game 4. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-25-20 | Middle Tennessee State v. UTSA UNDER 60 | Top | 35-37 | Loss | -102 | 35 h 54 m | Show |
C-USA Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'under' between Middle Tennessee State and UTSA at 8 pm et on Friday. I'll back the 'under' at the Alamodome on Friday night as I don't expect a shootout between the Blue Raiders and Roadrunners. Middle Tennessee is off to an 0-2 start, scoring a grand total of 14 points in the process. While this is certainly the Blue Raiders most favorable matchup to date, I'm still not convinced we'll see their offense get rolling. Note that in last week's 47-14 rout at the hands of Troy they scored a touchdown in the final two minutes of the first quarter but then didn't find the end zone again until the game was completely out of hand with two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. UTSA won a wild 51-48 overtime game against Texas State in its season-opener but reverted to low-scoring form in last week's 24-10 victory over Stephen F. Austin. In that win, the Roadrunners didn't score a touchdown until two minutes into the second quarter. Impressively, their defense gave up just a single touchdown, that coming in the dying seconds of the second quarter. The last meeting between these two teams reached 70 total points but that was back in 2016. Expect a different story to unfold here. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-24-20 | Dolphins v. Jaguars OVER 48 | 31-13 | Loss | -109 | 23 h 52 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Miami and Jacksonville at 8:20 pm et on Thursday. We're dealing with a relatively high total for a reason in this one. I'm anticipating an entertaining Thursday night affair between the lowly Dolphins and Jaguars. Miami catches its most favorable matchup of the season to date after facing the Patriots and Bills in its first two contests. The Jaguars were assumed to be 'tanking' this season having ushered out virtually all of their defensive talent. I still consider Jacksonville to have one of the league's worst defenses, even if it has held up fairly well through two games. Keep in mind, the Jags have drawn the Colts and Titans - two very average offensive teams - in their first two games. They get a below average offense in the Dolphins on Thursday, but I actually feel Miami has some upside here - at least offensively. I don't expect Miami to bang its head against the wall trying to run the football against a Jags defense that has proven to be capable of stopping the run. Instead look for QB Ryan Fitzpatrick to sling the football all over the field against a very beatable Jacksonville secondary. Of course, Jags QB Gardner Minshew isn't one to back down from a challenge. Look for him to rise to the occasion in this primetime affair as well. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-21-20 | Saints v. Raiders UNDER 49 | 24-34 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 27 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between New Orleans and Las Vegas at 8:15 pm et on Monday. The two previous primetime games this week have both sailed 'over' the total. This is probably the game that most believed would have the most shootout potential of the three primetime affairs. I'm actually anticipating a lower-scoring contest than most. The Saints should be able to take away the Raiders offensive strength in this one and that's RB Josh Jacobs. New Orleans was able to stymie Tampa's ground attack a week ago while the Raiders torched a bottom-tier Panthers run defense. Here the Saints should be able to flip the script on Las Vegas. While the Raiders defense is average at best and would generally have its hands full with the likes of the Saints, here I actually feel they can find some success. New Orleans certainly didn't appear to be in midseason form offensively last Sunday and now has to deal with the absence of all-world WR Michael Thomas. While RB Alvin Kamara should get his in this one, I don't see this as a true smash spot for the Saints offense. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-20-20 | Chiefs v. Chargers UNDER 48 | 23-20 | Win | 100 | 48 h 16 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Kansas City and Los Angeles at 4:25 pm et on Sunday. While I do expect both offenses to have some success moving the football in this game, I also expect plenty of stalled drives, or drives resulting in field goals rather than touchdowns. The real key here is the Chargers offense and whether they can stay on the field long enough to keep Chiefs QB Pat Mahomes off of it. I believe they can. We saw last week that this Chargers offense will be a little different than the one we saw with Phillip Rivers at the helm. I do believe QB Tyrod Taylor can get out and run a little bit on this Chiefs defense, and I also like the Chargers stable of running backs led by Austin Ekeler and rookie Joshua Kelley. The problem for L.A. might be finishing drives with the Chiefs owning a considerable advantage in terms of their pass rush, and the potential of bull-rushing the Chargers o-line which will be missing its anchor, center Mike Pouncey. Look for the L.A. defense, even without a couple of key cogs, to do just enough to contain Mahomes and company to help keep this one 'under' the total. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-20-20 | Washington Football Team v. Cardinals OVER 46.5 | 15-30 | Loss | -110 | 55 h 16 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Washington and Arizona at 4:05 pm et on Sunday. This has the potential to be a sneaky shootout in the late window of games on Sunday afternoon. We had a close eye on Washington last Sunday, cashing both the side and total in its upset win over Philadelphia. Here, I look for Washington find some continued success offensively with WR Terry McLaurin in line for a 2020 breakout game matched up against Patrick Peterson. While RB Antonio Gibson didn't get off to the start that most had hoped for, he should play a role against a beatable Cardinals run defense here. The Washington pass rush absolutely feasted on the Eagles decimated offensive line last Sunday. Here, I look for QB Kyler Murray to take advantage of Washington's aggressiveness in the pass rush to get out of the pocket and find his targets downfield if need be. WR DeAndre Hopkins showed tremendous chemistry with Murray in the opener and the duo should build on that performance here. Meanwhile, I consider the Cards to have one of the most underrated RB combos in the league in Kenyan Drake and Chase Edmonds. Look for them to find plenty of open field in this one. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-20-20 | Falcons v. Cowboys OVER 53.5 | Top | 39-40 | Win | 100 | 53 h 2 m | Show |
NFL NFC Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'over' between Atlanta and Dallas at 1 pm et on Sunday. There's no question we're dealing with a high posted total in this one but it's high for a reason. I'm expecting a shootout. The Falcons draw a favorable matchup here, at least as far as their offense goes. The Cowboys only gave up 20 points in last week's loss to the Rams but the damage could have been much worse. Dallas is now even more undermanned after losing elite LB Leighton Vander Esch. Their secondary is a weak point, one that the Falcons should be able to take full advantage of. Even against a tough Seahawks pass defense last week, Falcons WR Julio Jones came up with 150+ yards receiving. Cowboys QB Dak Prescott was under duress for much of the game against the Rams last week. We should see a different story unfold here, however, as the Falcons pass rush. While Atlanta has been tough against the run in recent years, it has had little success stopping the pass or containing opposing quarterbacks that can scramble. That plays right into the hands of Prescott and the up-tempo Cowboys offense, which should feast in its home-opener. After a relatively quiet opening week, look for the ultra-talented Dallas receiving corps to put up big numbers here. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-20-20 | Broncos v. Steelers UNDER 40.5 | 21-26 | Loss | -110 | 53 h 33 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Denver and Pittsburgh at 1 pm et on Sunday. I'll take a shot with the 'under', even with the low posted total in this one on Sunday afternoon. Both teams are playing on a short week following a unique training camp that included no preseason games. The Broncos are a lower-tier offensive team to begin with and are dealing with a number of key injuries, including those to key players WR Courtland Sutton and RB Philip Lindsay. I look for them to employ a rather conservative offense against an aggressive Steelers defense here. While the Broncos defense isn't what it once was, missing a number of key players from recent squads, it can still play well, as we saw this past Monday night against the Titans. In that contest, the Broncos held up well against one of the league's toughest running backs in Derrick Henry, allowing just 3.7 yards per rush. The Steelers offense has a lot of upside with a healthy Big Ben under center, but it may not have to keep its foot on the gas for four quarters in a projected one-sided affair here. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-19-20 | Stars v. Lightning OVER 5 | Top | 4-1 | Push | 0 | 36 h 53 m | Show |
NHL Stanley Cup Final Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'over' between Dallas and Tampa Bay at 7:35 pm et on Saturday. Both of these teams are coming off tight, low-scoring series' and as a result we're dealing with a relatively low posted total on Saturday. I believe we'll see this series get off to a high-scoring start, and it may not be long before 5.5's are back on the board. While I have a lot of respect for both goaltenders in this series, there's also no question that they've played a tremendous amount of hockey over the last seven weeks or so. At some point you have to feel that they're going to suffer a bit of a lapse, even if it's brief. Meanwhile, both squads are loaded with offensive talent. We've also seen both teams show a knack for coming up with clutch goals and performances from their star players. I'm confident the losing side gets at least two goals in this contest, setting us up well with a play on the 'over'. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-19-20 | Tulsa v. Oklahoma State OVER 66 | 7-16 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 20 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Tulsa and Oklahoma State at 12 noon et on Saturday. We should see an old-fashioned shootout between the Golden Hurricane and Cowboys in this early start matchup on Saturday. Tulsa boasts a truly underrated offense entering the 2020 season with a loaded stable of running backs keyed by Shamari Brooks and Corey Taylor II not to mention an experienced senior quarterback in Zach Smith. He passed for over 3,200 yards and 19 touchdowns to go along with nine interceptions last season. He has his top target back in Keylon Stokes who hauled in 62 catches for over 1,000 yards and six touchdowns a year ago. Oklahoma State is obviously loaded on offense, led by RB Chuba Hubbard. QB Spencer Sanders was the Big 12 Offensive Freshman of the Year last season, although this will be his third year with the Cowboys. Expect fireworks on Saturday afternoon. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-16-20 | Rangers v. Astros OVER 9 | 1-0 | Loss | -114 | 23 h 41 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Texas and Houston at 8:10 pm et on Wednesday. The Rangers entered last night's action ranked 29th in baseball in runs per game and team batting average but I think they can get to Lance McCullers Jr. in this contest. McCullers has battled injury once again and has struggled most of the way with his strikeouts per nine innings way down compared to his career average. He's also allowing one home run per nine innings for the first time in his career (his previous career-high was 0.8). Rangers starter Kyle Gibson has been a mess. His strikeouts are way down while his walks are up. He's also allowing two home runs per nine innings for the first time in his career. Take the over (10*). |

09-16-20 | A's v. Rockies OVER 11.5 | 3-1 | Loss | -125 | 18 h 50 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Oakland and Colorado at 3:10 pm et on Wednesday. I'll play the 'over' as the A's and Rockies wrap up their series at Coors Field on Wednesday. Mike Fiers has seen his strikeouts per nine innings drop while his walks have gone up compared to his 15-win campaign a year ago. Things obviously won't get any easier here in the thin air of Denver as the Rockies entered last night's action ranked T12th in the majors in runs per game and ninth in team batting average. Rockies starter German Marquez has struggled with command all season, with his walks per nine innings rising from 1.8 last year to 2.8 this year. His strikeouts per nine innings have dropped from 9.1 to 8.3. He's part of the reason why the Rockies rank T28th in runs allowed per game this season. Take the over (10*). |

09-15-20 | Cardinals v. Brewers UNDER 8.5 | 3-18 | Loss | -115 | 22 h 41 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between St. Louis and Milwaukee at 7:40 pm et on Tuesday. I'll back the 'under' at Miller Park on Tuesday night. Jack Flaherty takes the ball for the Cardinals. While his numbers are slightly off those he posted a year ago keep in mind we're dealing with a small sample size after he missed time due to injury in August. Also consider that he is also coming off a season in which he finished fourth in N.L. Cy Young voting and 13th in N.L. MVP voting. He led the N.L. in fewest hits allowed per nine innings last year and he's just slightly off that same pace this season (6.5 compared to 6.2). Brewers veteran starter Brett Anderson has held his own on the mound this season. He enjoyed a nice bounce-back season a year ago and has built on that success here in 2020. His strikeouts per nine innings are up while his walks are down. He has given up more hits and home runs per nine frames compared to a year ago but here he should benefit from facing a Cards club that entered last night's action ranked T21st in hits per game and 28th in home runs. Take the under (10*). |

09-14-20 | Stars v. Golden Knights OVER 5 | 3-2 | Push | 0 | 23 h 33 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Dallas and Vegas at 8:10 pm et on Monday. I really think it's only a matter of time before the Golden Knights break through against Anton Khudobin and the Stars. Vegas once again peppered Khudobin, particularly late in the game when they were trailing by a single goal on Saturday night. You have to think Khudobin will show some cracks in his armor at some point considering just how much hockey he has played and how much rubber he has faced over the last month-and-a-half. Meanwhile, the Stars have really impressed me with their ability to come up with big goals when they need them. I simply feel this is the game where the floodgates open a little bit, as this one gets 'over' the relatively low total. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-14-20 | Twins v. White Sox OVER 9 | Top | 1-3 | Loss | -120 | 12 h 24 m | Show |
A.L. Central Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'over' between Minnesota and Chicago at 8:10 pm et on Monday. I'll back the 'over' in the Windy City on Monday night. Jose Berrios will take the ball for Minnesota. He was extremely consistent over the last three seasons but has struggled a bit here in 2020. Berrios' strikeouts per nine innings are up but so are his walks. He's handing out 4.2 free passes per nine innings compared to just 2.3 last season. Here, he'll face a White Sox lineup that's poised to take advantage of any and all mistakes as they rank 4th in the majors in runs per game and second in team batting average. Dylan Cease will counter for Chicago. He has dropped both his ERA and WHIP compared to his rookie season a year ago but that's not saying much as he struggled mightily in 14 outings in 2019. His strikeouts per nine innings are way down while his walks are still up around four per nine innings and he's still getting tagged for just shy of two home runs per nine frames. The Twins rank T17th in runs per game but sit in the top half of baseball in team batting average, on-base percentage and on-base plus slugging. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-14-20 | Braves v. Orioles OVER 10 | 1-14 | Win | 100 | 12 h 40 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Atlanta and Baltimore at 7:35 pm et on Monday. This is a high total but it's up there for a reason. Touki Toussaint will take the ball for the Braves. He has struggled throughout his MLB career and for the most part has been pitching out of the bullpen this year. While his strikeouts per nine innings are up, his walks are sitting at a brutal 5.4 per nine innings. He's also giving up over two home runs per nine frames which doesn't bode well as he heads to Baltimore. While the O's have had a tough time lately and rank T17th in runs per game, they still sit in the top 10 in team batting average and slugging percentage. Look for them to get to Toussaint tonight. No teams scores more runs per game than the Braves and they should be able to tee off on O's starter Jorge Lopez. The Royals castoff has posted a 6.38 ERA and 1.33 WHIP in 24 innings of work this season which is pretty much par for the course. He's starting out of necessity here and I don't expect him to fare well. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-13-20 | Cowboys v. Rams OVER 51 | 17-20 | Loss | -116 | 83 h 21 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Dallas and Los Angeles at 8:20 pm et on Sunday. While I do lean to the Cowboys minus the points as well, I feel the 'over' is the better way to go in this Sunday night NFC showdown in Los Angeles. The Cowboys offense is well-positioned to get off to a tremendous start in this favorable matchup with the Rams. While Los Angeles has been considered an elite defensive team at times in recent years and boasts plenty of star power with Aaron Donald and Jalen Ramsey, it will need to replace a number of key cogs from last year's team and also has to adjust to a new system under new defensive coordinator Brandon Staley. The Cowboys offense is obviously loaded with elite talent at all the skill positions. Defensively, the Cowboys pass rush could wreak havoc against an overmatched Rams offensive line. But even if QB Jared Goff is given a little bit of time in the pocket he should have no trouble exposing what I consider to be one of the league's weaker secondaries. Even without fans, at home in a brand new stadium I don't see the Rams getting embarrassed in this one, and neither team will shy away from a shootout. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-13-20 | Cardinals v. 49ers OVER 48 | 24-20 | Loss | -110 | 80 h 41 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Arizona and San Francisco at 4:25 pm et on Sunday. This total has been on the rise since opening, and rightfully so in my opinion. Arizona's offense is poised to take off here in year two of Kyler Murray's tenure as starting QB. The Cardinals made arguably the biggest offseason splash by acquiring WR DeAndre Hopkins from the Texans and I expect him to have a positive impact right out of the gates, even after dealing with injury issues this summer. Speaking of injuries, the 49ers defense was also forced to deal with some key ones during training camp. I'm not sure we'll see San Fran's defense firing on all cylinders here in Week 1. With issues on their offensive line, don't count on the 49ers ground game to obliterate the Cardinals defensive front on Sunday. With that being said, that might just force QB Jimmy Garoppolo to take a few more shots down the field. Keep in mind, he completed better than 75% of his passes for eight touchdowns in two meetings with the Cardinals a year ago and Arizona isn't likely to take a big step forward defensively this season. Take the over (10*). |

09-13-20 | Lightning v. Islanders UNDER 5.5 | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 18 h 3 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Tampa Bay and New York at 3:10 pm et on Sunday. We won with the Islanders in Game 3 of this series on Friday but I'll shift my attention to the total and back the 'under' in Game 4 on Sunday. The Lightning were without Brayden Point in Game 3 and regardless whether he plays on Sunday, I'm still anticipating a tightly-contested low-scoring affair. The Lightning got away from their game on Friday but that wasn't all that unexpected given they owned a 2-0 series lead heading in. New York obviously wants to play a tighter-checking low-scoring style under Barry Trotz. While the Isles did get back in this series with a win on Friday, this is another pivotal contest. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-13-20 | Eagles v. Washington Football Team OVER 42 | Top | 17-27 | Win | 100 | 77 h 1 m | Show |
NFC East Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'over' between Philadelphia and Washington at 1 pm et on Sunday. Most are expecting this to be one of the uglier games on the Week 1 slate, but I'm not so easily convinced. I actually believe we'll see some offensive fireworks as these two familiar NFC East foes square off in Washington. Philadelphia is going to have to play fast on offense in an effort to circumvent its own offensive line issues against Washington's tremendous pass rush. The good news for the Eagles is that Washington's defensive back-end is average at best and I believe the opportunity will be there for Philadelphia's underrated pass-catching corps to come up with some big plays downfield. On the flip side, I'm higher on the Washington offense than most. QB Dwayne Haskins is poised to take a step forward after showing plenty of improvement down the stretch last year. While its WR corps isn't deep, it has a bonafide gamebreaker in Terry McLaurin. And don't sleep on RB Antonio Gibson making something out of nothing in the backfield. The Eagles may be known for their tough defense but they take a hit this year with a number of key cogs no longer in uniform, including Malcolm Jenkins and Nigel Bradham. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-13-20 | Jets v. Bills UNDER 39.5 | 17-27 | Loss | -104 | 77 h 47 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between New York and Buffalo at 1 pm et on Sunday. This has the potential to be one of the lowest-scoring games on the Week 1 board, as evidenced by the total sitting in the high-30's at the time of writing. Many have high hopes for the Bills offense with QB Josh Allen expected to take a step forward along with the addition of WR Stefon Diggs. The jury is still out on whether the Bills offense can be explosive through. I do expect them to orchestrate plenty of long drives against a relatively soft Jets defense here in Week 1. With that being said, I also believe New York can chew up some clock of its own with conservative play-calling against a Buffalo defense that can be dominant, but also yields to the short game in an effort to prevent big plays downfield. That's essentially why the Bills set up well as an 'under' team right out of the gates this season. With few gamebreakers on offense, Jets QB Sam Darnold will be forced into a game manager role on Sunday and that bodes well for the 'under'. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-13-20 | Raiders v. Panthers OVER 47.5 | 34-30 | Win | 100 | 77 h 39 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Las Vegas and Carolina at 1 pm et on Sunday. I'm expecting a high-scoring affair as the Raiders and Panthers do battle in Carolina on Sunday afternoon. Las Vegas' offense should absolutely feast on a Panthers defense that is missing a ton of talent from a year ago. Keep in mind, the Carolina defense had a tough enough time with all of that talent on hand last season. Now it has the potential to be the weakest defense in the entire league. The Raiders may not have an elite offense - the presence of QB Derek Carr virtually ensures that - but this is simply too good of a matchup not to succeed. Meanwhile, the Panthers will turn the page on the Cam Newton era with Teddy Bridgewater taking over under center. You can be sure he'll be motivated to perform now that he's finally grabbed a starting job. He has enough talent around him, including all world RB Christian McCaffrey, to get off to a strong start against a very beatable Raiders defense. Gone from Las Vegas are Prince Amukamara and Damarious Randall and while they did struggle at times, their experience will be missed in a new-look secondary. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-12-20 | Syracuse v. North Carolina UNDER 65.5 | Top | 6-31 | Win | 100 | 27 h 48 m | Show |
CFB ACC Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Syracuse and North Carolina at 12 noon et on Saturday. Most have this ACC opener pegged as a wild shootout between two offensive-minded teams in Syracuse and North Carolina. I feel the total has simply been set too high. The Orange certainly have a lot of work to do if they want to improve on last year's 5-7 squad that won just two games in ACC play. Their offensive line wasn't good and doesn't figure to be a whole lot better this year. The jury is still out on QB Tommy DeVito, who has shown flashes of brilliance but a real lack of consistency, albeit under duress most of the time. I do expect Syracuse to do a better job of keeping DeVito upright by leaning a little more on the ground game and the quick, short passing attack. The Tar Heels have a better defense than advertised as far as I'm concerned but they do have pass-funnel tendencies, particularly underneath, which could help keep the clock moving in this one. With that being said, I'm not convinced we'll see the Orange offense end many drives with 7's on the board as the Heels have an opportunistic defense that has the ability to tighten up in their own end of the field. The North Carolina offense is loaded. The strength of the offense is obviously their passing game with future NFL prospect QB Sam Howell and a talented group of wide receivers. The good news for Syracuse is that the strength of its defense is in the secondary where it boasts an experienced, underrated group. Like the Heels defense, the Orange secondary has also shown a knack for forcing turnovers. I believe we'll see the Orange do just enough to keep the Heels big play ability at bay for stretches. With a sky-high total, I'll call for enough stalled drives to keep this one 'under' the number. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-11-20 | Angels v. Rockies OVER 11.5 | 4-8 | Win | 100 | 12 h 1 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Los Angeles and Colorado at 8:40 pm et on Friday. I'm expecting plenty of offensive fireworks on Friday night at Coors Field. Griffin Canning takes the ball for the Angels. His strikeouts per nine innings are down considerably while his walks are up compared to last season and that's saying something as he isn't coming off a banner campaign. He's also allowing more hits and home runs per nine innings compared to a year ago. Meanwhile, Rockies starter German Marquez has also struggled. Like Canning, his strikeouts are down and his walks are up. While he has been able to tame Coors Field in the past, that simply hasn't been the case this year. With these two teams ranking top 12 in the majors in runs per game, look for a high-scoring affair on Friday. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-10-20 | Dodgers v. Diamondbacks OVER 9.5 | 2-5 | Loss | -106 | 24 h 13 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Los Angeles and Arizona at 9:40 pm et on Thursday. Everything lines up for a high-scoring affair between the Dodgers and D'Backs on Thursday night. Dustin May takes the ball for Los Angeles. While he has posted a sub-3.00 ERA and 1.11 WHIP, his peripheral numbers aren't nearly as sharp. May's strikeouts per nine innings have dropped by over two since last season while his walks are up by nearly one. He's also giving up more than twice as many home runs per nine innings. Meanwhile, Madison Bumgarner has endured a nightmarish season so far. His strikeouts per nine innings are way down while his walks are way up. He's allowing a whopping 3.8 home runs per nine innings. Now he faces a Dodgers club that entered last night's play ranked second in the majors in runs per game. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-10-20 | Texans v. Chiefs OVER 54.5 | 20-34 | Loss | -104 | 56 h 46 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Houston and Kansas City at 8:20 pm et on Thursday. This will be the third meeting between these two sudden AFC rivals in the last year, with the previous two resulting in wild, high-scoring affairs with the Texans winning the regular season matchup 31-24 and the Chiefs prevailing when it really mattered in the AFC Divisional Round, 51-31. There's little reason to expect anything other than another shootout as this unique 2020 NFL season kicks off on Thursday night. Yes, the Texans lost all-world WR DeAndre Hopkins, but the cupboard is by no means bare as they brought in the likes of Brandin Cooks and Randall Cobb to solidify the receiving corps. We can certainly expect Will Fuller to take a big step forward in Hopkins' absence, and this is a matchup he can feast on a Chiefs secondary that will be missing CB Bashaud Breeland - keeping in mind, this unit struggled at the best of times last season. Kansas City will also be without NT Mike Pennel, which should help open things up for the Texans ground attack which has been re-tooled with the addition of RB David Johnson. We know what we're going to get with the Chiefs electric offense. All of the key pieces are back and the addition of rookie RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire could potentially make this unit even stronger. The Texans weren't able to get to opposing quarterbacks with any consistency last season and did little to help their own cause in the offseason. Look for QB Pat Mahomes to come out all guns blazing here as he feasts on a Texans secondary that is missing a key cog in CB Gareon Conley. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-10-20 | UAB v. Miami-FL OVER 54 | Top | 14-31 | Loss | -110 | 35 h 16 m | Show |
CFB Non-Conference Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'over' between UAB and Miami at 8 pm et on Thursday. The Miami offense was absolutely dreadful a year ago, but perhaps that should have been expected (we noted the Canes offense would likely struggle right out of the gates in a season-opening play on the 'under' against Florida). We should see a different story unfold in 2020, however. QB D'Eriq King gives the Canes a bonafide veteran leader and star on offense. While the cupboard has been cleaned out in terms of the wide receiving corps, it's by no means bare. The Canes are loaded with speed all over the field on offense and King should have no trouble building a solid rapport with terrific TE Brevin Jordan. UAB's defense was terrific stat-wise last season, but that's playing most of its games against C-USA opponents. On the flip side, the Miami defense loses a number of key cogs after a strong 2019 campaign. I'm higher on the UAB offense than most. While the Blazers 45-point outburst last week came against an FCS squad in Central Arkansas, I saw plenty of positives, namely the performance of RB Spencer Brown, who ran for 127 yards and a score on 24 carries. He's in line for a big bounce-back season after playing hurt much of last year. In WR Austin Watkins Jr., the Blazers have a home run threat veteran QB Tyler Johnston can bank on as well. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-09-20 | Rockies v. Padres UNDER 9 | 3-5 | Win | 100 | 23 h 4 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Colorado and San Diego at 8:10 pm et on Wednesday. I'll back the 'under' at Petco Park on Wednesday night. The Rockies will hand the ball to Antonio Senzatela who is enjoying a career year, albeit in a Covid-shortened season. In his three previous big league campaigns he has always issued at least three walks per nine innings but he has cut that number all the way to 1.3 this season. His strikeouts per nine innings are up slightly compared to a year ago while his hits and home runs allowed are down. Zach Davies will counter for San Diego. Like Senzatela, he has also improved on his numbers from a year ago. Most notably, Davies' strikeouts per nine innings have climbed from 5.7 last season to 7.8 here in 2020. While the Padres are more known for their offense this season, it's worth noting that they also rank T9 in team ERA. Take the under (10*). |

09-09-20 | Islanders v. Lightning UNDER 5.5 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 23 h 40 m | Show |
NHL Conference Final Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'under' between New York and Tampa Bay at 8:10 pm et on Wednesday. Game 1 of this series was a complete landslide as the Lightning's top line absolutely went off and helped them roll to an 8-2 victory. Here, I expect a much different type of game to play out. It's important to realize that it was just one game. The Islanders are a well-coached team that has really come together during this playoff run and are certainly capable of bouncing back. With that being said, it's tough to stand in the way of the Lightning right now, given they're in top form having won five games in a row. I also have a lot of respect for Tampa Bay goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy who is quite simply one of the best goalies in the world right now. With all of that being said, I look for the Isles to make the necessary adjustments and do a much better job of containing Nikita Kucherov and Brayden Point in particular on Wednesday night. Meanwhile, Tampa Bay knows this isn't going to be a cakewalk and won't let down its guard defensively after the Game 1 blowout win. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-09-20 | Raptors v. Celtics OVER 210 | Top | 125-122 | Win | 100 | 22 h 51 m | Show |
NBA Total of the Week. My selection is on the 'over' between Toronto and Boston at 6:30 pm et on Wednesday. The Raptors haven't had much of a prayer of slowing down the Celtics multi-dimensional offensive attack during this series and as a result they're facing the prospect of elimination on Wednesday night. I don't expect the Raps to suddenly come up with an answer for the four-headed monster of Brown, Tatum, Walker and Smart on Wednesday. With that being said, I also don't expect to see Siakam and Lowry combine to make a paltry eight shots again either. The Raptors are the defending champions and as such, I don't think we'll see them go away quietly. This is the lowest posted total we've seen in this series so far, and I believe it will prove far too low on Wednesday night. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-08-20 | Brewers v. Tigers OVER 8.5 | 3-8 | Win | 100 | 22 h 39 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Milwaukee and Detroit at 7:10 pm et on Tuesday. We won with the 'over' in this same pitching matchup last week - a game that totaled 13 runs. I won't hesitate to go back to the well with the same play here. Adrian Houser once again takes the ball for the Brewers. While he didn't give up a home run for the first time in five starts, he still allowed nine hits and five earned runs over five innings. His strikeouts per nine innings are way down compared to last season while his walks are basically on par, which isn't saying much. He's also giving up more hits and home runs per nine innings. Spencer Turnbull counters for Detroit. I noted in my analysis last week that he was due for some regression to the mean in terms of home runs allowed as he had yet to give one up this season. Well he finally allowed a long ball in that most recent start and continues to struggle with his command, issuing a ridiculous six walks per nine innings. While the Brewers have struggled offensively this season look for them to once again take advantage of a Tigers pitching staff that has posted an ERA north of five this season, ranking 28th in the majors. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-07-20 | BYU v. Navy UNDER 49.5 | 55-3 | Loss | -115 | 12 h 49 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between BYU and Navy at 8 pm et on Monday. This total has obviously dropped considerably since opening but I still see some value playing the 'under' at the current number. BYU will be missing TE Matt Bushman - who was expected to be one of the best tight ends in FBS this season. The Cougars are also replacing most of their receiving corps from a year ago. While QB Zach Wilson has plenty of upside, I'm not convinced we'll see him come out bombing away here on Monday night. Navy is also turning to a number of new faces on offense, which is pretty much par for the course for the Midshipmen every year. QB Dalen Morris takes over the reins under center and we can expect a fairly conservative version of the option attack against a solid BYU defense. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-05-20 | Arkansas State v. Memphis UNDER 74 | 24-37 | Win | 100 | 94 h 48 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Arkansas State and Memphis at 8 pm et on Saturday. Let's face it, we're dealing with a diminished opening week slate of games due to Covid-19 but this primetime matchup between Arkansas State and Memphis does have the potential to be one of the week's most entertaining affairs. We're looking at a massive posted total for this one and while both offenses have proven explosive in recent years while the defenses have left a lot to be desired, I'm not convinced we're going to see the type of shootout the oddsmakers are projecting. Arkansas State knows it will be hard-pressed to win a shootout with Memphis - it simply doesn't have enough big-time playmakers to come away victorious in that sort of back-and-forth battle. Instead, I look for the Red Wolves to focus on trying to sustain long drives with an experienced offensive line capable of helping them move the chains with some consistency. The issue is that the Memphis defense has plenty of talent and experience, and lots of room for improvement, not to mention motivation get off to a strong start here in the season-opener at home. Memphis is loaded once again on offense but will have to replace star RB Kenneth Gainwell, who has opted out this season. The Tigers will generate plenty of offense but I don't believe it will be enough to get this one north of the sky-high total. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-05-20 | Islanders v. Flyers UNDER 5 | 4-0 | Win | 100 | 11 h 28 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between New York and Philadelphia at 7:25 pm et on Saturday. This series has very much become a toss-up thanks in large part to the stellar goaltending of Carter Hart for the Flyers. While I do still give the Islanders the slight edge entering Game 7, I'll instead focus on the total and call for a tightly-contested, low-scoring affair on Saturday night. While the Flyers did manage to score five goals in Game 6, they actually didn't look all that dangerous offensively for much of the game. We know Isles head coach Barry Trotz will have his players ready to defend and frustrate Philadelphia here. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-05-20 | Middle Tennessee State v. Army OVER 55 | 0-42 | Loss | -108 | 88 h 35 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Middle Tennessee State and Army at 1:30 pm et on Saturday. While I'll admit this total has settled out a little higher than I would like, I still see value playing the 'over' at the current number. Neither squad was an offensive juggernaut a year ago but I'm confident we'll see both teams get off to a positive start thanks to this favorable matchup on Saturday. The real key here is that neither defense showed the ability to get into the backfield with any consistency a year ago, and both units lose a number of key pieces entering the new season. Both teams have plenty of dynamic playmakers at the skill positions on offense and given enough time - as should be the case here - I look for the two offenses to feast. Expect to see enough 'home run plays' to help send this one 'over' the total. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-03-20 | South Alabama v. Southern Miss UNDER 53.5 | 32-21 | Win | 100 | 54 h 19 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between South Alabama and Southern Miss at 9 pm et on Thursday. I'm not expecting a great deal of offensive fireworks as South Alabama and Southern Miss open what promises to be a unique college football season on Thursday night. Southern Miss should be able to name its score against a Jaguars squad that might be one of the weakest teams in the nation (of those playing that is). With that being said, the Golden Eagles are dealing with a number of key departures on offense and might just focus on pounding away on the ground and controlling the clock in this very winnable contest. QB Jack Abraham has shown plenty of promise but he likely won't be asked to do too much in the season-opener. South Alabama's spread offense is going to continue to go through some growing pains. While the Jaguars do boast considerable talent at the wide receiver position, I'm not sure they have the quarterback to make it happen on the scoreboard. Most will be looking for an entertaining, high-scoring affair to open the campaign with this total set in the 50's. I'm find with going the other way and grabbing some perceived value with the 'under'. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-02-20 | Avalanche v. Stars UNDER 6 | 4-1 | Win | 109 | 13 h 8 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Colorado and Dallas at 8 pm et on Wednesday. The last two games in this series have featured big early leads, first with Dallas jumping ahead 3-0 in Game 4 and then with Colorado roaring out to a shocking 5-0 first period lead in Game 5. Here, I look for both teams to tighten things up defensively. The Avs will still be in desperation mode facing elimination but they can ill afford to get involved in another wild, high-scoring affair. Even when spotted a 5-0 lead, the Stars were still able to make the Avs feel uncomfortable, ultimately scoring three goals in the contest. It's not easy to play an 'under' the way this series has played out, but here I simply feel it's the right call. Take the under (10*). |

09-02-20 | Tigers v. Brewers OVER 8.5 | Top | 5-8 | Win | 100 | 12 h 4 m | Show |
MLB Interleague Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'over' between Detroit and Milwaukee at 7:40 pm et on Wednesday. I'm expecting another high-scoring affair between these two clubs on Wednesday night. The Tigers are hot right now. They rank ninth in the majors in runs per game and 11th in team batting average. The Brewers find themselves at the back-end of most offensive rankings but I do think they can have some success at the dish here tonight. Spencer Turnbull has posted a solid ERA this season for the Tigers but a deeper look indicates he could be in for some rough waters moving forward. Turnbull is striking out fewer batters per nine innings than a year ago while issuing north of five walks - way up from his walk rate a year ago. Brewers starter Adrian Houser is nothing special having recorded a 4.36 ERA and 1.39 WHIP this season. The Tigers can get to him, and the Brewers bullpen here tonight. Take the over (10*). |

09-02-20 | Heat v. Bucks UNDER 221 | Top | 116-114 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 18 m | Show |
NBA Eastern Conference Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Miami and Milwaukee at 6:30 pm et on Wednesday. We've seen a considerable adjustment to the total in this matchup since Game 1, despite the fact that the series-opener did manage to reach 219 total points (not much lower than the closing total of 224). I believe we'll consider to see the totals drop as this series progresses as we should be in for another relatively low-scoring affair (by today's NBA standards) on Wednesday. Keep in mind, both teams shot the ball pretty well, particularly from three-point range, two nights ago. As expected, Miami was able to slow down the Bucks pace, something I think we'll continue to see as the series goes on. The Bucks got punched in the mouth in Game 1 but I'm confident we'll see them punch back on Wednesday. But am I confident enough that I'm willing to lay a handful of points with them against a gritty Heat squad? Not a chance. Instead we'll focus on the total and call for a tightly-contested affair in Game 2. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-01-20 | Canucks v. Golden Knights UNDER 6 | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 24 h 57 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Vancouver and Vegas at 9:45 pm et on Tuesday. The Golden Knights have certainly proven capable of shutting down the Canucks offense for stretches in this series, having posted two shutout victories and also not allowing a single goal in a pivotal third period on Game 4. With an opportunity to close out the series on Tuesday night, I look for the Knights to tighten up defensively once again. Meanwhile, the Canucks know that they're up against it now, needing three consecutive wins to rally to win this series. They'll obviously need to be stronger defensively after allowing three unanswered goals in the third period of Game 4. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
09-01-20 | Diamondbacks v. Dodgers OVER 9 | Top | 3-6 | Push | 0 | 23 h 24 m | Show |
N.L. West Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'over' between Arizona and Los Angeles at 9:40 pm et on Tuesday. The Dodgers entered last night's action tied for first in the majors in runs per game but rather than back them at a steep price on Tuesday night, we'll instead play the 'over' as I'm confident the D'Backs will be able to pitch in with some offense as well. Alex Young will take the ball for the D'Backs. We've actually been fairly high on Young this season but he's shown signs of regression in recent starts. He has failed to work beyond the fifth inning in any of his last three starts, allowing four home runs in just 13 1/3 innings over that stretch. His strikeouts per nine innings are up compared to last season but so are his hits allowed and his walks have started to creep up as well. Julio Urias will counter for Los Angeles. His strikeouts per nine innings are down while his walks, hits and home runs allowed are all up compared to last year. He has worked beyond the fourth inning just once in his last four starts. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
09-01-20 | Jazz v. Nuggets OVER 217.5 | 78-80 | Loss | -105 | 22 h 59 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Utah and Denver at 8:30 pm et on Tuesday. This series has been an 'over' bettors' dream and while I understand the logic behind posting a lower total with this being Game 7 and all, I'm not about to jump off the 'over' train. Generally, we see the defensive intensity ramp up in Game 7 but these aren't typical circumstances. Without the raucous atmosphere these players are accustomed to, not to mention home court advantage, we just haven't seen that same level of defensively intensity, regardless what point of a series we're talking about. Here, I look for both teams to continue to get the looks they want on offense, and continue to execute at a very high level at the offensive end of the floor. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-29-20 | Golden Knights v. Canucks UNDER 6 | 3-0 | Win | 100 | 25 h 56 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Vegas and Vancouver at 9:45 pm et on Saturday. The Knights simply didn't come to play in Game 2 of this series, dropping a 5-2 decision to even the series at a game apiece. I look for Vegas to tighten things up considerably on Saturday night, resulting in a relatively low-scoring affair. After the winner in each of the first two games of this series scored exactly five goals, it's obviously paramount for both squads to perform better defensively in Game 3 and I believe we'll see exactly that. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-29-20 | Blazers v. Lakers UNDER 223 | 122-131 | Loss | -105 | 24 h 59 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Portland and Los Angeles at 9 pm et on Saturday. The Blazers will try to avoid elimination at the hands of Lebron and co. on Saturday night but they'll be hard-pressed to do so without the services of Damian Lillard. We've seen a considerable adjustment to the total here, but I still believe it will prove too high as Portland makes a desperate attempt to stay in the series, ultimately missing plenty of shots against what will be a motivated Lakers squad. Los Angeles has gotten better as this series has progressed and while it has given up its share of points, I expect it to tighten things up and completely shut down the Blazers on Saturday night, helping this one stay 'under' the total. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-26-20 | A's v. Rangers OVER 9.5 | Top | 3-1 | Loss | -107 | 22 h 12 m | Show |
MLB Total of the Week. My selection is on the 'over' between Oakland and Texas at 8:05 pm et on Wednesday. I'm expecting a high-scoring affair on Wednesday night as the A's and Rangers continue their series in Texas. Mike Fiers will take the ball for the A's. It's easy to forget that he was a 15-game winner a year ago. With that being said, W-L records rarely tell the whole story when it comes to MLB starting pitchers. There's a reason he wasn't in the running for the A.L. Cy Young. So far this season his strikeouts per nine innings are down to a career-low 4.1. His walks are on par with a year ago (2.6 per nine innings - not a favorable number). He's also giving up more hits and home runs per nine innings compared to a year ago. The Rangers may soon have to face the fact that Kolby Allard isn't cut out to be a big league starter. He owns a career 6.41 ERA and 1.77 WHIP. While his strikeouts per nine innings are up so far this season, so are his walks, home runs and hits allowed. The A's are capable of teeing off on Allard on Wednesday. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-25-20 | Jazz v. Nuggets OVER 221 | 107-117 | Win | 100 | 10 h 18 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Utah and Denver at 6:30 pm et on Tuesday. We've been playing the 'over' every game in this series and it has paid off nicely. There's no reason to jump ship on Tuesday as we should once again see a high-scoring affair between these familiar foes. While in some cases I would shy away from playing the 'over' in an elimination game here in the "bubble" I believe this situation is a little different. The Nuggets still believe they can get back in the series and should really push the pace in this one noting the last game was decided by just two points in favor of the Jazz, with Denver shooting 49% from the field overall and 39% from three-point range. That contest got to 252 total points despite the Nuggets getting to the free throw line only 13 times (making 12 of those attempts). Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-24-20 | Pacers v. Heat OVER 216.5 | Top | 87-99 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 47 m | Show |
NBA First Round Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'over' between Indiana and Miami at 6:30 pm et on Monday. This has been a relatively low-scoring series to this point (by today's NBA standards at least). I look for some carry-over from Game 4 on Monday, however, noting that Saturday's game reached a series-high 239 total points. This is it for the Pacers. They'll be in desperation mode on Monday and they at the very least have proven they can score against Miami, having put up at least 100 points in all four previous games in this series. As for Miami, it managed to score 124 points despite shooting just 45% from the field in Game 4. The Heat were certainly aggressive, however, getting to the free throw line a whopping 52 times in that contest. Expect they to make a concerted effort to close out the Pacers here, leading to a high-scoring affair. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-23-20 | Nuggets v. Jazz OVER 217 | 127-129 | Win | 100 | 13 h 6 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Denver and Utah at 9 pm et on Sunday. We missed the mark with the 'over' in Game 3 of this series on Friday but I won't hesitate to go back to the well with the same play on Sunday. That missed call obviously had a lot to do with a slow start as well as a poor shooting performance from the Nuggets (38% from the field). Here, the Nuggets will need to bounce back with a better effort as this is a pivotal game in this series with the Jazz up 2-1. The first two games in the series easily eclipsed the total but the low-scoring Game 3 has helped keep the number in check here on Sunday. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-23-20 | Red Sox v. Orioles OVER 10 | 4-5 | Loss | -120 | 15 h 58 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Boston and Baltimore at 1:05 pm et on Sunday. I'll back the 'over' as the Red Sox and Orioles wrap up their series at Camden Yards on Sunday afternoon. Zack Godley will take the ball for the Red Sox. He is pitching for his third team since the start of last season, and for good reason. Godley continues to struggle, having posted a 6.87 ERA and 1.86 WHIP. His strikeouts per nine innings are up while his walks are down slightly but he's still giving up far too many hits and home runs. In fact, Godley is giving up a career-high 2.5 home runs per nine innings this season. Wade LeBlanc will counter for Baltimore. His strikeouts per nine innings are up, as are his walks and he's giving up a whopping 10.8 hits per nine innings, matching last year's average. There's little reason to believe that LeBlanc will be able to keep the Red Sox bats at bay on Sunday afternoon. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-22-20 | Diamondbacks v. Giants OVER 8.5 | 1-5 | Loss | -115 | 12 h 8 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Arizona and San Francisco at 9:15 pm et on Saturday. We won with the 'under' in D'Backs starter Zac Gallen's most recent outing but I'll go the other way and back the 'over' as he faces the Giants on Saturday night. Gallen has been sharp to open the season and there's honestly not a lot bad I can say about him right now. But the fact is, he's facing a surging Giants offense that has climbed to 12th in the majors in runs per game and a tie for eighth in team batting average. They also rank 12th in home runs and Gallen has now allowed a home run in all five starts this season. Tyler Anderson continues to struggle for the Giants. His strikeouts per nine innings are down considerably from a year ago while his walks per nine innings sit at a disappointing 4.8 - the same number he posted last year. While his home runs allowed per nine innings are down that's only because he went from making most of his starts at Coors Field with the Rockies to a more pitcher-friendly park here in San Fran. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-22-20 | Bucks v. Magic UNDER 226 | 121-107 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 7 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Milwaukee and Orlando at 1 pm et on Saturday. We saw a relatively low-scoring game by today's NBA standards in Game 2 of this series on Thursday and I look for more of the same on Saturday. The Bucks quite simply got caught flat-footed in the series-opener and Orlando took full advantage. After making the necessary adjustments, Milwaukee was able to hold the Magic to a miserable 35% shooting overall and 21% from beyond the arc in Game 2. I'm not convinced we see a big bounce-back performance from Orlando in that regard here. The Bucks will get theirs offensively but I'm not sure they'll need to keep their foot on the gas right to the final whistle. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-21-20 | Twins v. Royals UNDER 9 | Top | 2-7 | Push | 0 | 22 h 18 m | Show |
A.L. Central Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Minnesota and Kansas City at 8:05 pm et on Friday. I'll back the 'under' in Kansas City on Friday night as we have an underrated pitching matchup between Jake Odorizzi and Danny Duffy. It may come as a surprise that Odorizzi was a 15-game winner a year ago, earning a spot in the A.L. All-Star team. He's had a bit of tough luck so far this season, giving up far more home runs than usual but his strikeouts per nine innings are up and his walks are down compared to his career year in 2019. He handled the Royals in a seven-inning double-header game last week and should find some success again here. Duffy has been a middle of the road pitcher over the course of his career but has shown signs of breaking out so far this season. His strikeouts have climbed to a career-high 10.4 per nine innings while his walks are a respectable 2.6 per nine innings. He has also given up a career-best 5.9 hits per nine innings. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-21-20 | Phillies v. Braves UNDER 8.5 | 2-11 | Loss | -106 | 22 h 30 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Philadelphia and Atlanta at 7:10 pm et on Friday. The Phillies are coming off a wild double-header sweep at the hands of the Blue Jays yesterday, which included blowing a 7-0 lead in Game 2. Here, I look for a lower-scoring affair as we have an excellent pitching matchup between Aaron Nola and Max Fried. Nola is having a career-year (even though it's early). His strikeouts per nine innings are way up, hitting 12.6 while his walks are down to a career low 1.4 per nine innings. He's also giving up fewer home runs and just north of four hits per nine innings. After struggling with his command in his first two big league seasons, Max Fried has seemingly got it under control since last year. Through five starts this season he has posted an impressive 1.24 ERA and 0.90 WHIP. His strikeouts per nine innings are down slightly while his walks are up a shade, but he has yet to allow a home run in 29 innings and is giving up just 5.3 hits per nine innings. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-21-20 | Nuggets v. Jazz OVER 218.5 | 87-124 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 39 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Denver and Utah at 4 pm et on Friday. We've won with the 'over' in each of the first two games in this series and there's no reason to stray from our thinking here. We can expect to see major pushback from the Nuggets after their poor showing in Game 2. There were positives for them to take away from that blowout loss as they did ultimately shoot 46% from the field and 48% from three-point range. Here, I look for them to push the pace a little more and force the issue against a beatable Jazz defense. Utah turned in an incredibly clean performance in Game 2, dishing out 32 assists compared to only six turnovers. The Jazz also got whatever they wanted in the paint, holding a 48-28 scoring edge. At some point you have to figure we'll see an adjustment to this total but so far the oddsmakers are holding steady. I believe the number will prove too low once again. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-20-20 | Reds v. Cardinals UNDER 8.5 | Top | 4-5 | Loss | -106 | 22 h 16 m | Show |
N.L. Central Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Cincinnati and St. Louis at 8:15 pm et on Thursday. I'll back the 'under' on Thursday as the Reds and Cardinals match up in what has the potential to be a pitcher's duel. Sonny Gray will take the ball for Cincinnati. He's arguably been the best pitcher in baseball this season, building off what was a terrific 2019 campaign. Keep in mind, he was an All-Star and finished seventh in N.L. Cy Young voting last season. So far this year, Gray's strikeouts per nine innings are up significantly while his walks are down. He's also allowing a career-low hits per nine innings. While we're certainly dealing with a small sample size, Cards veteran starter Adam Wainwright is off to a solid start as well. His strikeouts are down to 6.5 per nine innings but he's done an excellent job of limiting good contact, having yet to give up a home run and a career-low 4.1 hits per nine innings. Note that the Reds entered last night's action sitting tied for 19th in runs per game and 25th in team batting average. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-19-20 | Astros v. Rockies UNDER 12.5 | 13-6 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 22 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Houston and Colorado at 8:40 pm et on Wednesday. I'll go the contrarian route once again and back the 'under' as the Astros and Rockies shift their series to Coors Field on Wednesday night. Framber Valdez will take the ball for Houston. He's off to a terrific start in his third big league season. Valdez has seen his strikeouts per nine innings go up while his walks per nine innings have dropped significantly. He's also giving up fewer hits and home runs. Meanwhile, Rockies rookie Ryan Castellani has pitched well in limited action so far this season, allowing just two hits and one earned run in 8 2/3 innings of work. We won with the 'under' in his most recent start, a 3-2 loss to the Rangers last week. While the Astros did enter yesterday's action ranking tied for eighth in baseball in runs per game, they were just 17th in batting average and 22nd in slugging percentage. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-19-20 | Jazz v. Nuggets OVER 217.5 | 124-105 | Win | 100 | 8 h 25 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Utah and Denver at 4 pm et on Wednesday. Game 1 in this series eclipsed the total with ease and while the oddsmakers have raised the total slightly for Game 2, I don't believe it will be enough. It's interesting that the series-opener got to a whopping 260 points despite the fact there were only 32 made free throws in the game. Both teams got all the open looks they wanted and I don't see a whole lot changing here in Game 2. The Jazz are obviously going to need more production from players not named Donovan Mitchell after he poured in 57 points in Game 1. I'm expecting Utah to do a much better job of capitalizing on its opportunities at the offensive end of the floor, noting that it did pull in 16 offensive boards on Monday. Meanwhile, the Jazz didn't have an answer for the Nuggets offense last time out and I don't see much changing on Wednesday. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-18-20 | A's v. Diamondbacks OVER 9 | 1-10 | Win | 100 | 21 h 34 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Oakland and Arizona at 6:10 pm et on Tuesday. I'll back the 'over' as the A's and D'Backs do battle in a late afternoon affair on Tuesday. Frankie Montas will take the ball for Oakland. While he has posted a 1.57 ERA through four starts this season his strikeouts per nine innings are down while his walks are up compared to the last two seasons. He's yet to give up a single home run but that's obviously not a sustainable trend. Luke Weaver will counter for Arizona. He has been one of the most hittable pitchers in baseball this season, allowing north of 14 hits per nine innings, not to mention a ridiculous 4.6 home runs. While Weaver's strikeouts are up, so are his walks issued. Needless to say he's going to face a tough challenge in the hot hitting A's on Tuesday. Take the over (10*). |

08-17-20 | A's v. Diamondbacks UNDER 9 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 24 h 50 m | Show | |

08-17-20 | Giants v. Angels OVER 9.5 | Top | 6-7 | Win | 100 | 13 h 11 m | Show |
MLB Interleague Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'over' between San Francisco and Los Angeles at 9:40 pm et on Monday. I'm expecting a high-scoring affair between the Giants and Angels on Monday night in Anaheim. Tyler Anderson will take the ball for San Francisco. He has yet to make it more than five innings in any of his three starts this season. Note that Anderson's strikeouts per nine innings are way down from his previous work with the Rockies while his walks per nine innings are up significantly to nearly six. He'll have his hands full with the Angels lineup on Monday. Griffin Canning counters for Los Angeles. He didn't have a banner rookie campaign a year ago and has struggled again in early season action here in 2020. Like Anderson, Canning's strikeouts per nine innings are down while his walks are up. He's also allowing two home runs per nine innings. Off a tough weekend series against the red hot A's, look for the Giants to do some damage at the plate tonight. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-17-20 | Padres v. Rangers UNDER 8.5 | 14-4 | Loss | -100 | 26 h 2 m | Show | |
**NO PLAY DUE TO PITCHING CHANGE** My selection is on the 'under' between San Diego and Texas at 9:05 pm et on Monday. The Rangers entered Sunday's action ranking 29th in baseball in runs per game but ninth in runs allowed per contest. Expect another low-scoring game featuring the Rangers here as they send Mike Minor to the hill against Zach Davies. Minor's overall numbers aren't great but it's worth noting his strikeouts per nine innings are up slightly while his home runs and hits allowed per nine innings are down compared to last year as well. He needs to work on his command but I do think that will turn around. Davies has been terrific for the Padres, posting a career high in strikeouts per innings and a career low walks per nine innings in the early going. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-17-20 | Bruins v. Hurricanes OVER 5 | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 25 h 59 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Boston and Carolina at 8 pm et on Monday. The Canes are going to need a much bigger push than we saw from them on Saturday afternoon if they're going to even this series up at a game apiece on Monday night. The Bruins are now without goaltender Tuukka Rask after he opted out of the NHL Playoffs earlier on Saturday. Jaro Halak is certainly a capable backup and turned aside 29 of 30 shots on Saturday. I'm just not sure we'll see that same level of performance against a more desperate Canes squad on Monday. Boston hasn't had a great deal of trouble breaking down the Canes defense in this series, mounting a huge attack with 39 shots on goal on Saturday. Expect the B's to find continued success. The Canes have one of the weaker goaltending tandems of all playoff teams. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-15-20 | Mets v. Phillies UNDER 8.5 | 2-6 | Win | 105 | 20 h 59 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between New York and Philadelphia at 6:05 pm et on Saturday. Unlike last night when we saw two back of the rotation starters go head-to-head in the opener of this series, I expect to see a much more impressive pitching matchup on Saturday night as the Mets send Steven Matz to the hill against the Phillies Aaron Nola. Matz' overall numbers so far this season are awful as he has gone 0-3 with an 8.20 ERA and 1.50 WHIP. Keep in mind, he did allow just four earned runs over 11 1/3 innings of work in his first two starts before getting lit up over his last two outings. Remember, Matz finished sixth in N.L. Rookie of the Year voting back in 2016 and save for a poor 2017 campaign has generally pitched well at this level. Even this year he has slightly increased his strikeouts per nine innings while reducing his walks per nine innings considerably over last season. Aaron Nola has been the Phillies ace so far, posting a 2.79 ERA and incredible 0.62 WHIP through three starts. He's striking out a whopping 13.5 batters per nine innings while issuing just 0.9 walks. Just two years ago he finished third in N.L. Cy Young voting and even reached the MVP ballot. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-14-20 | Rangers v. Rockies UNDER 12.5 | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 23 h 9 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Texas and Colorado at 8:40 pm et on Friday. I'll take the contrarian route and back the 'under' as the Rangers and Rockies open up their series in Denver on Friday night. The Rangers aren't the offensive powerhouse they once were. While they did plate seven runs in a win over the Mariners two nights ago, they've scored more than seven runs in a game on only one occasion this season and rank tied for 28th in the majors in runs scored per game at 3.6. Somewhat surprisingly, they find themselves in the top half of the majors in fewest runs allowed per game. Rockies rookie Ryan Castellani made his big league debut on August 8th, not allowing a single hit while striking out three and walking one over four innings. Veteran Lance Lynn takes the ball for the Rangers. He's been more than serviceable over the last couple of seasons and is off to an alright start this year as well. While he's issued a lot more walks than I would like, I do expect him to pitch reasonably well here. Take the under (10*). |

08-14-20 | Braves v. Marlins OVER 8.5 | Top | 2-8 | Win | 100 | 22 h 32 m | Show |
MLB N.L. East Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'over' between Atlanta and Miami at 7:10 pm et on Friday. Expect plenty of runners on base and ultimately runs on the board as the Braves and Marlins open their series in Miami on Friday night. Kyle Wright will take the ball for the Braves. He previously had a cup of coffee at the big league level over the last two seasons, making 11 combined appearances in 2018 and 2019. He struggled in those outings and has picked up right where he left off this year, recording a 6.75 ERA and 2.08 WHIP through 12 innings of work. After issuing a whopping 5.9 walks per nine innings in seven appearances last year he's inexplicably been even worse in limited work so far this season, handing out 7.5 walks per nine innings. Pablo Lopez will counter for Miami. His numbers this season are just fine, but he's worked just 10 innings and has a poor track record at the big league level. He posted an ERA north of five in 21 starts last season. While his strikeouts per nine innings are up through two appearances this year, so are his walks. In this matchup of two teams than rank top-10 in baseball in runs per game, I'll back the 'over' on Friday night. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-13-20 | Padres v. Dodgers UNDER 8.5 | Top | 2-11 | Loss | -107 | 24 h 49 m | Show |
N.L. West Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between San Diego and Los Angeles at 9:40 pm et on Thursday. While both of these offenses are off to terrific starts this season, I'm comfortable playing the 'under' with the oddsmakers hanging out a generous total in Thursday's series finale. Chris Paddack will take the ball for the Padres. Few starters have been more consistent than Paddack in the early going this season as he has already worked 22 2/3 innings, posting a 3.18 ERA and 1.02 WHIP. His strikeouts per nine innings are down slightly compared to his rookie campaign last year, but so are his walks. In fact, he's handed out only three free passes so far this season. Julio Urias will counter for Los Angeles. He has seen the 'over' cash in two of his first three starts but keep in mind, he's been opposed by the likes of Drew Smyly, Luke Weaver and Jeff Samardzija. Here, he's in line for a pitcher's duel with Paddack. Urias had his start pushed back a night as Dodgers manager Dave Roberts tries to manage workload during a 17-game in 17-night stretch. After posting a stellar 2.49 ERA in 37 appearances, mostly as a reliever, last year he's off to another fine start here in 2020, having recorded a 2.40 ERA and 1.27 WHIP. Take the under (10*). |

08-12-20 | Cubs v. Indians UNDER 8 | 7-2 | Loss | -108 | 20 h 21 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Chicago and Cleveland at 6:10 pm et on Wednesday. Cubs starter Kyle Hendricks has put together a rock solid big league career and he's off to another fine start here in 2020. Consistency has been key over the course of Hendricks' seven-year career as he has never posted an ERA north of 3.95 in a season, with that career-high number coming way back in 2015. It's easy to forget that Hendricks was actually third in N.L. Cy Young voting back in 2016. So far this year he has issued just 0.9 walks per nine innings and allowed only eight earned runs on 17 hits through 20 1/3 innings of work. Likewise, Cookie Carrasco has been terrific for the Indians, working exactly six innings in each of his first three outings, allowing just five earned runs on 12 hits. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-11-20 | Blackhawks v. Golden Knights UNDER 6.5 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 25 h 20 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Chicago and Vegas at 10:30 pm et on Tuesday. I simply feel we're going to see a much tighter series between these two teams than we did with the Blackhawks against the Oilers in the play-in round. I have a lot of respect for the Golden Knights defensively and fully expect them to do a good job of locking down the Blackhawks admittedly explosive offense. On the flip side, we really haven't seen the Knights get rolling offensively yet and to be honest, I don't think they're built to win many 5-4 or 6-5 type contests. Look for this to be the highest posted total we see all series. We'll take advantage in Game 1. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-11-20 | Cubs v. Indians OVER 8 | 7-1 | Push | 0 | 22 h 32 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Chicago and Cleveland at 7:10 pm et on Tuesday. Expect plenty of offensive fireworks as the Cubs and Indians do battle in a 2016 World Series rematch on Tuesday. Jon Lester is off to a tremendous start for the Cubs this season, perhaps turning back the hands of time after struggling last year. I'm not sure his success is sustainable. He's not missing a lot of bats and faces a tough Indians lineup here on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Adam Plutko is nothing more than a stop-gap for Cleveland as it goes through some starting rotation woes. He's been routinely owned by opposing bats over the course of his big league career, struggling as a starter in each of the last two seasons. He has posted a solid 2.57 ERA and 0.86 WHIP so far this season, but that's through just seven innings of work. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-11-20 | Royals v. Reds OVER 9 | 5-6 | Win | 103 | 21 h 10 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Kansas City and Cincinnati at 6:40 pm et on Tuesday. I had a strong lean to the 'under' in Royals rookie Kris Bubic's most recent start, which ultimately turned out to be a 6-1 loss to the Cubs. Here, I look for plenty of offense as the suddenly surging Royals travel to Cincinnati to face the Reds. Bubic missed plenty of bats against the Cubs last time out but I'm not sure his success is sustainable. He'll be making his first road start of the season. Note that he made one start away from home back in Spring Training and got lit up for four earned runs and couldn't make it out of the second inning against the White Sox. Luis Castillo will counter for the Reds. His strikeout numbers are up so far this season but he has also been hit hard, allowing 18 hits and nine earned runs in 17 innings of work. After issuing just 2.6 walks per nine innings in 2018, Castillo handed out 3.7 last year and that number is up over three again so far this season. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-10-20 | A's v. Angels UNDER 9 | Top | 9-10 | Loss | -105 | 24 h 50 m | Show |
A.L. West Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Oakland and Los Angeles at 9:40 pm et on Monday. The A's are off to a terrific start this season, currently running away with the A.L. West division lead. They've been doing it with solid pitching, sitting in a tie for third in baseball in runs allowed per game. They rank just 23rd in the majors in both batting average and slugging percentage and I'm not convinced they'll rack up a ton of runs in the opener of this series in Anaheim. Julio Teheran will take the ball for the Angels. He struggled in his debut with his new club but is certainly capable of bouncing back here, noting that he has posted a sub-4.00 ERA in each of the last two seasons as a member of the Braves. Like Teheran, A's starter Sean Manaea is also off to a tough start this season, albeit with a larger sample size. It is worth noting, however, that his strikeouts per nine innings are up while his walks are down. Keep in mind, he posted an incredible 1.21 ERA in just five starts last season. Two years ago he made 27 starts for the A's and recorded a solid 3.59 ERA. The Angels check in 24th in baseball in batting average and 17th in slugging percentage. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-09-20 | Rockies v. Mariners OVER 8 | 3-5 | Push | 0 | 5 h 4 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Colorado and Seattle at 4:10 pm et on Sunday. Off a low-scoring contest last night I look for a little more offense in Sunday's series finale between the Rockies and Mariners in Seattle. German Marquez is off to a stellar start this season having posted a 1.89 ERA and a 0.89 WHIP in 19 innings of work but I'm not sure those numbers are sustainable. The Mariners know they'll need to get something done at the dish if they're going to contend with the hot hitting Rockies here today. That's especially true when you consider they'll hand the ball to rookie Justus Sheffield, who has really struggled, posting a 9.39 ERA and 1.83 WHIP, lasting only 7 2/3 innings so far this season. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-08-20 | Flyers v. Lightning UNDER 5.5 | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 11 h 18 m | Show | |
My selection is on the under between Philadelphia and Tampa Bay at 8 pm et on Saturday. We won with the under in the Flyers last game and I won’t hesitate to go back to the well with same play here. Carter Hart should be back between the pipes for Philadelphia and I’m confident he’ll turn in another stellar performance. In fact, this game features two of the world’s absolute best goaltenders in Hart and Andrei Vasilevskiy. With the number one overall seed (and a date with the Canadiens) hanging in the balance look for a tightly-contested affair on Saturday night. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-07-20 | Penguins v. Canadiens UNDER 5.5 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 9 h 35 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Pittsburgh and Montreal at 4:08 pm et on Friday. With Montreal coming off a stunning come-from-behind 4-3 victory in Game 3 of this series I'm anticipating a much lower-scoring affair on Friday afternoon. We have the heavily favored Penguins facing elimination in this one which alone should help tighten things up on their end. Meanwhile, the Habs have received all-world goaltending from Carey Price in this series, even if Game 3 wasn't his best performance. I fully expect that to continue here as the Habs look to close things out. Look for the winner to score three or less in this one. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-06-20 | Brewers v. White Sox OVER 9 | 8-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 53 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Milwaukee and Chicago at 8:10 pm et on Thursday. We saw a pitching duel in this matchup last night as the Brewers prevailed by a 1-0 score. I expect a much different story to unfold on Thursday, however. Josh Lindblom will take the ball for Milwaukee. He labored through this first start this season and I expect more of the same here. Note that he has made more than a single start in a season only once in his career, that coming back in 2013 when he made five starts for the Rangers, ultimately posting a 5.46 ERA and 1.47 WHIP in eight appearances that year. Gio Gonzalez will counter for the White Sox. He's coming off a fine outing but there's no question he's on the downside of his career arc, managing only 23 starts since 2018 due to injuries and otherwise. He has yet to last through the fourth inning in two starts so far this season. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
08-06-20 | Capitals v. Flyers UNDER 6 | Top | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 7 h 24 m | Show |
NHL Total of the Week. My selection is on the 'under' between Washington and Philadelphia at 4:08 pm et on Thursday. I simply feel that this total will prove too high as the Caps and Flyers continue round robin action in Toronto. Washington is coming off a hard-fought loss against the Lightning in their opener. I look for them to tighten things up here after digging an early 2-0 hole that they had a tough time recovering from in that one. Brian Elliott is expected to start in goal for the Flyers over Carter Hart in a bit of a surprise move. I do expect the Flyers to react accordingly and play this one a little closer to the vest. Hart has moved into elite status in the NHL while Elliott is certainly on the downside of his career but you have to think he'll be motivated off Hart's 34-save performance last time out. What this boils down to is I don't think we'll see the same level of offensive output from the Flyers after potting four goals against Boston. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
08-03-20 | Grizzlies v. Pelicans OVER 238.5 | 99-109 | Loss | -110 | 24 h 3 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Memphis and New Orleans at 6:35 pm et on Monday. We won with the 'under' in the Grizzlies narrow loss to the Spurs yesterday afternoon but I won't hesitate to go the other way and back the 'over' as they match up against the struggling Pelicans on Monday. New Orleans is off to an 0-2 start so it will certainly be highly motivated to break out of its funk on Monday evening. This appears to be an ideal matchup for the Pelicans to do just that as they should be able to get out and run against a weary Grizzlies squad playing on no rest. Meanwhile, the Grizz have had two highly contrasted games so far with a high-scoring track meet against the Blazers followed by yesterday's relatively tight affair against the Spurs. Here, I'm confident we'll see them get loose and find some offensive success against a Pelicans that has struggled defensively all season long. Take the over (10*). |

07-31-20 | Celtics v. Bucks OVER 218.5 | 112-119 | Win | 100 | 10 h 46 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Boston and Milwaukee at 6:30 pm et on Friday. We saw both games stay 'under' the total in yesterday's double-header but I expect a different story to unfold as the Celtics and Bucks match up on day two of the NBA restart. Despite yesterday's results, I still believe we'll see some high-scoring affairs in the early going here at Disney as the teams have had more than enough time to get back into shape and acclimated with their surroundings. The Celtics and Bucks are two of the league's most dynamic offensive tams and I'm comfortable playing the 'over' at what I consider to be a low number. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
07-30-20 | Clippers v. Lakers OVER 216 | 101-103 | Loss | -106 | 30 h 58 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between the Clippers and Lakers at 9 pm et on Thursday. Questions around Anthony Davis' health and absent members of the Clippers have pushed this total lower, but I believe it will prove too low as the oddsmakers shade the totals lower in general due to the uncertainty around the style of play in the Disney restart. I'm actually anticipating something resembling 'normal' NBA basketball as we get going here in Orlando. The players have had enough time to settle in to 'bubble life' and get acclimated back with the game of basketball during exhibition affairs. I don't need to tell you that both of these teams are capable of pushing the tempo and hanging crooked numbers on the scoreboard. This is the lowest total we've seen the oddsmakers put out there in a matchup between these L.A. rivals this season and I believe we should take advantage. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
07-30-20 | Indians v. Twins UNDER 9 | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 28 h 47 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Cleveland and Minnesota at 7:07 pm et on Thursday. We won with the 'under' in Shane Bieber's season debut against the Royals last week - a no sweat ticket from start to finish - and I won't hesitate to go back to the well with the same play here. Bieber remains one of the most underrated and undervalued starters in baseball as far as I'm concerned. He picked up right where he left off following a tremendous 2019 campaign, tossing six shutout innings while striking out 14 last Friday night against the Royals. Jose Berrios didn't get off to the start he had hoped for, as he was rocked by the White Sox in his season debut. I do expect a better showing from the right-hander here as he returns home to the friendly confines of Target Field. Since a shaky rookie campaign in 2016, Berrios has been terrific at the big league level - last season posting a 3.68 ERA and 1.22 WHIP in over 200 innings of work. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
07-30-20 | Jazz v. Pelicans OVER 221 | 106-104 | Loss | -115 | 32 h 34 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Utah and New Orleans at 6:30 pm et on Wednesday. While more than a little rust is to be expected as the NBA returns following a four-month hiatus, I do feel that these teams have had more than enough time to get acclimated with their surroundings at Disney Wide World of Sports and I believe we'll see something that closely resembles 'normal' NBA play on Thursday. This is the lowest posted total we've seen in this particular matchup this season, noting that all three regular season affairs went 'over' the total. The Pelicans got good news with the return of Zion Williamson this week and by all accounts he'll be good to go for Thursday's opener. I'll take a shot with the 'over' as I anticipate a relatively loose affair to get things started in Orlando. Take the over (10*). |
