Ricky's 1* play on Over.

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 Over is 8-2 in the Cubs last 10 games.

- The over is 3-0 in the Brewers last 3 games.

- The Over is 4-1 in the Cubs last 5 head to head meetings.

Verdict: We should see plenty of Runs in this game.

This is a FREE PLAY on the UNDER Yanks/Angels.

The first two games of this series have flown well OVER the number, but I'm anticipating that runs will be at a premium here on Wednesday in the finale with a couple of "in form" starters squaring off.

The visitors hand the ball to Cam Schlittler (12-6, 2.09 ERA), who is coming off a win over Boston on Friday, allowing zero runs and striking out eight over six innings. He owns a 0.97 WHIP.

He'll be opposed by Reid Detmers (4-8, 3.54 ERA), who gave up one run on eight hits while striking out two with no walks over six innings in what turned out to be an unfortunate no-decision vs. the Phillies on Friday.

Everything points to a "duel" in my opinion.

Consider the UNDER.

Good luck, NP

Jack's Free Pick Wednesday: Boston Red Sox -131

The Boston Red Sox now have one of the deepest lineups in baseball with the returns of Roman Anthony and Trevor Story from injuries recently.  They have scored a combined 15 runs in the first two games of this series with the Mariners, and they should stay hot at the plate again tonight.

Bryce Miller has been an absolute dumpster fire in his last four starts, going 0-3 with a 9.00 ERA while allowing 20 earned runs and 5 homers in 20 innings.  The Mariners have been outscored a combined 62-7 in his last four starts.  Miller has never beaten the Red Sox, going 0-4 with a 6.64 ERA in four career starts against them while allowing 15 earned runs and 5 homers in 20 1/3 innings.

Patrick Sandoval has posted a 4.20 ERA in nine starts this season, including a 3.54 ERA in four home starts.  He has allowed 2 earned runs or fewer in seven of his nine starts this season.  Sandoval has a 3.93 ERA in nine career starts against the Mariners.  Bet the Red Sox Wednesday.

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. Take #164 Under in Marshall Thundering Herd @ Penn State Nittany Lions (3:30p.m., Saturday, September 5 FS1) The Matt Campbell era gets underway at Penn State on Saturday. Penn State should still have a strong defense and Coach Campbell is a run the ball and play strong defense type of coach. I don’t think he will want to throw the football up and down the field and focus on field position and ball control. Marshall usually a bowl caliber team and not a mid-major pushover like some teams. They have to run clock to have any chance to keep this game under twenty points and that should set up a strong play for the under. Marshall closed out the season going under the posted total in 3 straight games.

Saturday's Free CFB Pick

PLAY ON: Clemson +10 

Under 48.5 in Buffalo. That’s the one I want and recommending to all of you.

Thursday night, Albany is on the road at a MAC team that went 5-7 last year and scored 24 a game. Buffalo is laying 24 and a half. They should win. They do not need a 35-burger to get it done. The books hanging 48.5 already told you this is supposed to stay small. Week 1, first Thursday, rust, backups late. That’s punts. Not a track meet.

Albany already played. They beat New Hampshire 28-14 and the under cashed at 46.5. Last season they averaged 16.3 points. That’s two scores and a kick if everything is clean. They are not walking into Broadview and hanging 28. Buffalo scored 24 a night in 2025 and allowed 23.5. Close games. Ugly games. Not 50-point games.

Shop 48 if you can get it. Don’t wait around for 47 and watch the number leave.

Simple way to look at it: if each team puts up 21, you are already home.

21+21=4221 + 21 = 4221+21=42

That’s under 48.5 with six points to spare. Twenty-one is three scores. Asking for 49 in an opener with a three-touchdown spread is a lot. Buffalo 28, Albany 14 is 42. Buffalo 31, Albany 10 is 41. The over needs a leftover touchdown and a special-teams mistake. Week 1 does not give those away as often as people think.

Add last year’s averages and you get the same picture.

16.3+24.0=40.316.3 + 24.0 = 40.316.3+24.0=40.3

That’s eight points under the number before you even tax it for September rust.

Buffalo is a big favorite because Albany is FCS and on the road in Week 1, not because this is about to be 45-17. If the Bulls cover and it finishes 31-7, the under still cashes. Spread and total are different tickets. Take the one that pays when the night stays quiet.

A few spots that keep showing up in this look:

Bet under the total in Albany games as a road underdog.
The Under’s record since the 2025 season: 5-0 (100%) with an average over/under of 51.5. (+5.0 units, ROI = 90.9%)

Bet under the total in Buffalo home games when the number is 50 or lower.
The Under’s record since the 2025 season: 6-2 (75%) with an average over/under of 48.8. (+3.6 units, ROI ≈ 45%)

Bet under in Week 1 MAC home games against FCS when the total is 50 or lower.
The Under’s record the last two seasons: 7-2 (77.8%) with an average over/under of 49.1. (+4.4 units, ROI ≈ 49%)

Bet under when Albany plays an FBS team and the number is 52 or lower.
The Under’s record since 2025: 4-1 (80%) with an average over/under of 50.2. (+2.6 units, ROI ≈ 52%)

Grab 48.5. If a shop is still at 49, that’s fine too. I would not start on Buffalo −24.5 when the total is the cleaner number. Check the wind off the lake closer to kick. Keep the unit small. It’s still the first week. People are generally in the dark so the books play it safe, the lines might be tilted . This is one that looks a little crooked and a viable early season bet.

Under 48.5, Albany at Buffalo. That’s the play.

My selection is on the Athletics over Texas at 2:35 pm et on Wednesday.

It's been a winding road for Athletics starter Jacob Lopez this season. After pitching well for the team in 2025, he got off to a horrible start this year. He has since turned it around, however, allowing two earned runs or less in each of his last nine starts (of note the first of those did last only 1 2/3 innings). The A's are 2-1 in his last three outings, including a 5-2 win over the same Rangers they'll face on Wednesday. I don't feel that Rangers starter Cody Bradford belongs in this price range. Texas has lost each of his last four starts as he's allowed 10 earned runs in 22 innings of work over that stretch. Last time out he went 5 2/3 innings and gave up nine hits and three earned runs to go along with two walks and no strikeouts. In 26 1/3 big league innings this season he has posted a lofty 1.52 WHIP. Take the Athletics (8*).

Mariners vs Red Sox MLB Free Pick

The Angle(s): Red Sox left-hander Patrick Sandoval (1-3, 4.20 ERA) is coming in hot, allowing just three earned runs on eight hits with 13 Ks over his last two starts (11.0 IP).

Seattle righty Bryce Miller (4-8, 4.12 ERA) has posted an ugly ERA over the last few months, but this is a quality pitcher who held Boston to one run with 7 Ks over 5.0 innings back in June.

With Sandoval finding his rhythm and Miller showing he can navigate this Boston order, gimme the under.

The Bet: Under (3%).

Marc David Sports' Free Pick

We really like the home team in this matchup. The line appears to be highly influenced by the Rangers three-game winning streak and Oakland's five consecutive losses, but we think this is an overreaction. The Athletics (53-86) might be struggling overall, but they present tremendous value on the run line here. LHP Jacob Lopez (5-4, 4.82 ERA) has been solid in limited action and already logged a strong performance against Texas last month, holding them to two runs over six innings of a 5-2 Oakland win.

The Rangers (69-70) send LHP Cody Bradford (0-3, 3.42 ERA) to the bump. While Bradford sports a decent ERA, Texas has found it surprisingly difficult to win his starts, sitting on a 1-4 team record with Bradford as the starter.

This is a 3% play on the ATHLETICS +1.5!

PSP Data Driven 1* Blue Jays.

At Professionalsportspicks we see a future where those handicapping sports without advanced analytics and data-driven strategies will be left behind. Our data-driven picks use data integration, search and discovery, and knowledge management along with collaboration with our in-house handicappers. By isolating relevant trends, removing human bias, and targeting only lines with a positive expected value above a certain threshold, our data-driven picks promise to outperform any and all human competitors.

Our models suggest that the value is on the favorite. Dylan Cease is 3-1 in his last 4 starts for the Blue Jays. The Blue Jays are 4-1 in their last 5 road games.

For my best free pick on the board here for Wednesday in Major League Baseball I am looking at the Detroit Tigers at the Minnesota Twins. This is the time of year that the Minnesota Twins franchise really play their best baseball when the division and a playoff spot are on the line. Dean Kremer not my favorite starter but hes good enough to hold this Tigers offense to 2 or 3 runs here. Twins 3.5 games out so no room for error here tonight. Look for a late score to be the difference in this one.
