Jack's Free Pick Thursday: Orioles/Marlins OVER 8.5

The Miami Marlins are 105-72 OVER in all home games over the last three seasons.  The Orioles are 14-1-1 OVER in their last 16 games overall finishing with 8 or more combined runs in all 16 games, and 9 or more in 14 of them.  This total of 8.5 is too short for a game involving the Orioles right now.

The Orioles won 9-7 over the Marlins in Game 1 for 16 combined runs and 7-4 over Miami in Game 2 for 11 combined runs.  The Orioles and Marlins have combined for at least 9 runs in 10 of their last 13 meetings.  It should be more of the same today, and the Marlins should actually do the heavy lifting this time around.

Cade Povich is 7-18 with a 5.14 ERA and 1.45 WHIP in 38 starts and three relief appearances in his career in the big leagues.  He is 1-1 with a 4.41 ERA in 16 1/3 innings this season.  He is backed by a poor, tired Baltimore bullpen that has posted a 4.89 ERA this season.

Max Meyer is 8-11 with a 4.70 ERA and 1.34 WHIP in 32 career starts in the big leagues.  Meyer has been much better this season with a 2.68 ERA in seven starts, but he won't be able to sustain this level.  He faces a red hot Orioles lineup tonight that should do enough damage against him to cash this OVER 8.5 ticket.  Bet the OVER in this game Thursday.

Ricky's 1* play on Under.

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 Under is 14-3 in Detroit's last 17 games against Cleveland.

- The Under is 7-2 in Detroit's last 9 games when playing at home against Cleveland.

- The Under is 4-1 in Cleveland's last 5 games against an opponent in the Central Division.

Verdict: Points should be hard to come by in this game.

Recommended Bet: Flamengo -125

1* on Miami Marlins -122

The Key: The Miami Marlins will be hungry to avoid the sweep after dropping the first 2 games of this series to the Baltimore Orioles.  They have a big edge on the rubber tonight that should have them taking Game 3.  Max Meyer is 2-0 with a 2.68 ERA and 1.03 WHIP in 7 starts this year yielding 11 ER and 2 HR in 37 innings with 40 strikeouts.  Cade Povich is 1-1 with a 4.41 ERA and 1.29 WHIP in 3 outings this year for the Orioles.  Povich sports a 5.14 ERA and 1.45 WHIP lifetime.  The Marlins have a 3.45 ERA as a bullpen while the Orioles have a 4.89 ERA.  Take Miami.

916. Miami Marlins money line over Baltimore Orioles

Miami is no-brainer at a decent number. The Marlins are getting price down low enough and the pitching matchup favors Miami with Max Meyer against Cade Povich. Meyer is rolling into the game 2-0 with a 2.68 ERA and 40 strikeouts, compared to Povich who is 1-1 with a 4.41 ERA. Baltimore does have a decent lineup, but Meyer gives Miami the edge to pitch to contact early and Loan Depot Park will do its job at suppressing some of the Orioles’ slug potential. Not a sexy play by any means, but one of the better value bets on Thursday's board.  Jim's Free play is on Miami.

OVER 9

The Athletics and Phili clash and this is a good over spot. The Athletics goes with JT Ginn, who hasn’t been able to find any sort of rhythm so far. He owns an ERA well above 4 and was roughed up last time out for 5 runs against Cleveland. This Phili offense is heating up and they will put a lot of traffic on the bases against Ginn. Philadelphia counters pitching wise with Andrew Painter. He’s got an ERA of 5.28 and hasn’t surpassed 5 innings yet this season. He’s given up 3 or more runs in 4 of his outings this year and that number will rise as this A’s offense can really string together hits. Grab the over. Ray’s daily FREE plays are meant to be cheap bankroll plays. Money management is everything in this game, and these freebies are designed to keep you moving in the right direction. Tonight’s FREE selection is a strong lean on the OVER 9. The number makes sense, the spot is right, and it’s a play worth taking. You know what to do. Good luck — Razor Ray.

Thursday's MLB Free Pick

PLAY ON: Phillies -130 

My selection is on the 'over' between Carolina and Philadelphia at 8 pm et on Thursday.

We couldn't quite get there with the 'over' in Game 2 of this series on Monday, even after three goals were scored in the game's first 11 minutes. I won't hesitate to go back to the well with the same play again in Game 3, however, at an even more generous price. The Flyers are now on a four-game 'under' streak and that's notable as they've had just one 'under' streak last more than four games this season, that coming during an eight-game streak that stretched from late January to early March. Of course, that streak featured four games with totals set at 6.5. The Hurricanes check in off back-to-back 'under' results. They've posted more than two 'unders' in a row just twice since December 13th. Take the over (8*).

AAA Sports' Selection: Detroit Pistons (ATS).

Cleveland is having lots of trouble at the moment. It's gone five straight road games without covering against the spread.

The Cavaliers are also just 2-9 straight up when playing in the month of May since last year.

Detroit looked confident in Game One and has now won four straight games after coming from behind in the last game.

The Pistons are also 34-26 against the spread this season when playing against opponents within the Eastern Conference.

We're on Detroit.
