Jack's Free Pick Wednesday: Tampa Bay Rays +148

The New York Yankees have a total of 5 hits in losing the first two games of this series.  Their offense was always going to be the problem in the playoffs, and that is playing out here without Aaron Judge.  It won't get any easier against one of the most underrated starters in baseball in Nick Martinez in Game 3.

Martinez is 15-6 with a 3.10 ERA and 1.09 WHIP in 31 starts this season, including 7-3 with a 2.38 ERA and 1.00 WHIP in 16 road starts.  He has owned the Yankees this season with a 2.16 ERA in three starts against them while allowing just 4 earned runs in 16 2/3 innings.  Martinez and the Rays should not be this big of an underdog in Game 3 tonight.

Max Fried is getting too much respect, especially if you look at his results against the Rays this season.  Fried has allowed 7 earned runs in 14 2/3 innings for a 4.29 ERA in two starts against Tampa Bay in 2026 alone.  Bet the Rays in Game 3 Wednesday.

This is a FREE PLAY on the Yankees.

I like Max Fried at home in this elimination game.

"If we don't win, we go home, and this is where you leave everything out on the field," Fried assessed to reporters last night. "There's nothing else to save anything for."

It's difficult to point out too many negative things about Nick Martinez, but I give Fried the slight nod at home in this matchup.

Throw in the double-revenge factor, and I think that NEW YORK at this price, and considering the circumstances, is worth a "second look" in Game 3. But what do you think? Can New York rally and get a win, or do the Rays roll and post a sweep?!

Good luck, NP

Ricky's 1* play on SD.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- The Padres are 7-3 in their last 10 games.

- The Padres are 4-2 in the last 6 head to head meetings.
  
- The Padres are 5-0 in their last 5 home games.

Verdict: The value is on the home favorite.

1* Free Pick on Bucs/Cowboys: under 47½

This total is priced off Sunday's shootout, and short-week Thursday football rarely delivers a sequel.

Dallas just played a 64-point game.

The Cowboys trailed Houston 16-6 at halftime and stole it 34-30, with Dak Prescott throwing 45 times for a season-high 335 yards and CeeDee Lamb soaking up 21 of those targets.

That performance is built into 47.5.

Dallas is averaging 30.5 points and allowing 28 through four games, so the books have already pushed this number up.

You make money when you buy, not when you sell, and the buy price on the over here is the worst it's been all season.

Now both teams turn around on three days' rest.

Thursday games get sloppy.

Game plans shrink, legs are heavy, and offenses that live on rhythm tend to look a step slow.

The Cowboys are also patching the offensive line.

Tackle Drew Shelton is doubtful and unlikely to be cleared for Thursday.

Guard Tyler Smith was only cleared to return to practice Monday after opening the season on injured reserve, and he was limited in his first session back.

Getting him activated on a short week is a stretch.

Outside of Lamb, the passing game is thinner than the scores suggest.

Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson sits at 0.71 yards per route run with just 12 catches for 83 yards.

If Lamb doesn't see 21 targets again, Dallas has to grind this one out.

Take the inflated number before it drops.

I like the Under

1 Unit FREE PLAY on Brewers/Padres OVER 7.5

These teams combined for 16 hits in Game 1, 10 hits in Game 2 and 17 hits in Game 3.  There have been plenty of traction on the bases to produce more runs than we've seen thus far in this series.  And now Game 4 is easily the worst pitching matchup thus far and the hitters should have their way.  The Brewers will be going with an opener in Chad Patrick and making this a bullpen game.  The Padres will be going with Walker Buehler, easily the weakest starter in their playoff rotation.  Buehler has a 4.63 ERA and 1.35 WHIP in 32 starts for the Padres this season.  Both bullpens are pretty taxed and the Padres are dealing with an injury to Morejon and a distracted Mason Miller who missed Game 3 on paternity leave after getting shelled in Game 2.  That's their two best relievers.  Give me the OVER.

OVER 49.5

UTSA's offense comes alive at home, scoring 59 and 45 in its two Alamodome games this season while going OVER in 12 straight there. USF can help against a Roadrunners defense allowing 218 rushing yards per game, and the Bulls have already scored 13 rushing TD's. We don't need a track meet at 49.5. UTSA gets into the 30's, USF does enough, and we're in business. Locking this in early. Ray’s daily FREE plays are meant to be smaller bankroll plays. Money management is everything in this game, and these freebies are designed to keep you moving in the right direction. FREE selection is a strong lean on the OVER 49.5. The number makes sense, the spot is right, and it’s a play worth taking. You know what to do. Good luck — Razor Ray.

My selection is on Sam Houston State plus the points over Liberty at 7 pm et on Thursday.

Liberty enters this game riding a four-game SU and three-game ATS winning streak. That's impressive to be sure, but I think the Flames are laying too many points in this tough scheduling spot. Liberty will be playing on just five days' rest after posting a 30-14 win at Delaware last Friday. Meanwhile, Sam Houston State has been idle since dropping a 49-14 decision in an impossible road matchup against Texas Tech on September 26th. That ATS defeat against the Red Raiders marked the Bearkats first dropped cash of the season. Of note, Sam Houston State has faced a slightly more difficult schedule than Liberty based on most metrics and its first two losses came by a combined nine points against Troy and Tulsa. Take Sam Houston State.

Our selection is on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to cover the spread against the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday at 8:15pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Tampa Bay hasn't won a single game yet. But, the good thing is that the division isn't great either this season.

The Buccaneers didn't look that bad last week with Daniels in at QB.

With a week under his belt, we're anticipating Daniels to have an even better performance on Thursday.

Dallas hasn't been extremely impressive either, winning just two of it's first four games.

The Cowboys have allowed 112 points over the four games -- an average of 28.0 points a game.

We're on TB.

AAA Sports

Brewers vs Padres October 7, 2026

The Angle(s): The San Diego Padres stayed alive with a 4-3 win in Game 3 and now hand the ball to Walker Buehler (4.63 ERA), who is fresh after missing the start of the series on the paternity list. Buehler's ERA does not jump off the page, but the Padres went 10-3 in his second-half starts and he brings a strong October track record from his Dodgers days. Buehler is 2-1 with a 2.53 ERA in four career starts against Milwaukee. Every game in this series has been decided by one run, so getting the proven starter at home in a spot like this matters.

The Milwaukee Brewers have not named a starter as of the publication of this free pick, with Robert Gasser Shane Drohan and Chad Patrick the options, so this likely turns into a piecemeal game for them. With the Petco crowd behind them and the momentum flipped, we back the Padres to force a Game 5.

The Bet: Padres ML (3%). 

SIZZLING 6-1 (85%) RUN with College Football sides (ML+ATS)!

For Wednesday, Mike has 3 premium picks (1 CFB, 1 MLB, 1 NHL). Grab an all-sports subscription and bet like a pro, with a pro.

The Yankees have a huge advantage on the mound. In his last postseason start, Max Fried allowed one earned run on three hits in six innings. The Yankees were 46-34 at home this season. Nick Martinez has allowed two earned runs or fewer in three of his last four starts. The Yankees are at home, and if they can stop throwing the ball around like a bunch of little leaguers, I like Fried an the Yankees to extend the series.

Eagles vs. Jaguars Under 42.5

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, London | Sunday, October 11, 2026, 9:30 AM ET

The Jaguars are riding high. They just won on the road in Cincinnati, Trevor Lawrence has been efficient, and the defense is allowing only 13.3 PPG.

The Eagles are a different story, especially on offense. They went 0-for-12 on third down last week against the Rams, and they're 0-4 ATS, the only team in the league without an ATS win this season.

The injury report doesn't help. Davante Smith is out, and I don't expect Saquon Barkley to play. Backup Tank Bigsby is on IR, so Will Shipley will get the carries. It hardly matters, because you can't run on this Jags defense. That leaves Philadelphia one-dimensional, and they haven't shown me anything to suggest they can move the ball consistently.

Any fight from the Eagles will have to come from their defense, and I think it will be good. Quinyon Mitchell should be back, and this unit has had success against Lawrence before. In their 2024 meeting, they held him to 16-of-31 for 169 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions. The Eagles have also won five straight in this series. I think the line is inflated, so I lean Eagles to cover, but the best play is on the total.

Hotspur Stadium has produced low-scoring results lately. The last seven games there have averaged 40.4 points. The Eagles need to turn this into a defensive slugfest, and I don't know how they score against this Jags defense. We'll take the Under, even with the total already down 2 points.

Take Eagles vs. Jaguars Under 42.5.

Let's cash some tickets!
