07-07-19 | Netherlands (W) +1.25 v. USA (W) | 0-2 | Loss | -116 | 48 h 50 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #104. Competition: Women's World Cup. Take Netherlands to Win Women's World Cup over USA (Sunday @ 11:00 am). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time + Extra Time and/or Penalties if required. For this selection to win, Netherlands must win by any means and lift the trophy. As per your selection on the Netherlands to Win the World Cup - the value is simply too good to pass up. In the Netherlands, you have a really talented team that has depth at every position on the field. They have excellent attacking options and as we've seen against the US in the last few games, attacking teams can get after them and cause them a few problems. Unlike Sweden, the extra 30 minutes of football shouldn't affect the Dutch squad because this is a once in a lifetime opportunity and we don't see fatigue being a factor - only adrenaline. The pressure is squarely on the United States coming into this game as they are hot favorites, but outside of a few capitalized chances against England, they mostly sat back and let the play come to them. That will be a mistake against the Dutch and we think the USA fold under the pressure. Take the Netherlands and grab a nice big winner. | |||||||
07-06-19 | Cardinals v. Giants -120 | Top | 4-8 | Win | 100 | 11 h 33 m | Show |
10-Unit Play. Take #908 San Francisco over St. Louis (10:05 p.m. Saturday, July 6) There have been plenty of rumors that Madison Bumgarner could be traded before the trade deadline so this could be an audition of sorts for him. He will be facing a Cardinals team that hasn't been playing their best ball and will be without one of their best players as Marcell Ozuna is still on a rehab assignment. Miles Mikolas will be pitching for St. Louis and he hasn't been able to recapture his pitching form that led him to 18 wins last season. The Giants lost last night's contest but I think they are going to bounce back in this game and even up the series. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
07-06-19 | BC v. Toronto UNDER 55.5 | Top | 18-17 | Win | 100 | 32 h 53 m | Show |
10-Unit Play. #693/694. Take Under in BC vs Toronto (Saturday at 7:00 pm). We are going to be extremely selective in our approach for the first few weeks as we develop an understanding of each team. We look to keep our unbeaten record alive in Week 4. As per your selection on the Under 56 points in this game between BC and Toronto, you have a Toronto team that has essentially picked up right where it left off last season and that is being atrocious on offense. The Argos have scored just 24 points in their first two games combined and now have to make a QB switch after James Franklin got injured in last week's loss to Saskatchewan. The Argos simply don't have any offensive weapons to take advantage of a BC defense who has been torched for 108 points in their 0-3 start. You have to expect the Lions pride to be on the line in this one and we expect their defense to show up in a big way and clamp down defensively. Offensively, the offense hasn't exactly meshed together like many hoped it would before the season started. Mike Reilly has thrown just four touchdowns against three interceptions in three games - so we don't see a sudden outburst from him and the rest of the offense against an Argos defense that was respectable last week. It should be noted that the under is 14-2 in the last 16 meetings in Toronto and 22-6 in the last 30. The Argos are 4-1 to the under in their last 5 games following a SU and ATS loss, while the Under is 8-3-1 in the Lions last 12 Saturday games. It's going to be hot in Toronto on Saturday night and this game is going to stay well under the inflated total. | |||||||
07-06-19 | Sweden (W) v. England (W) -0.5 | 2-1 | Loss | -135 | 24 h 51 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #052 (5Dimes) Competition: Women's World Cup. Take England -0.5 over Sweden (Saturday @ 11:00 am). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. For this selection to win, England must win in regulation time. As per your selection on England - we are going to keep this short and sweet. As a team, they are simply better. They were unlucky not to have at least forced extra time vs the United States, and two bonehead mistakes cost them in the end. We believe they have the team spirit to bounce back in this spot and claim third place. Sweden just went throw 120 minutes of grueling football vs Netherland only to lose. We see no bounce back from that and we like England to win comfortably 3-0. | |||||||
07-05-19 | Fever v. Wings OVER 148.5 | 76-56 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 56 m | Show | |
5-Unit Play. #635/636. Take Over in Indiana vs Dallas (Friday at 8:00 pm). As per your selection on the over, we think this game is going to shoot over the total for a few reasons. The first being that both of these teams had excellent shooting games in their last outing with Indiana notching 97 and Dallas notching 89. As the season progresses and teams start to find their rhythm offensively, we can see teams go on extended runs where their offense simply can't miss. Both teams come into this game well rested having not played since last week, and so we expect to see two rested and focused squads for this contest. It should be noted that Indiana loves to play to the over following a SU loss, where they are 8-2 in the last 10. They also play to the over against the West (5-2 L7) and they come out firing on 3 or more days of rest with an Over record of 4-1. Another key stat we feel pushes this number over the Total is that both teams are in the Top-3 in offensive rebounds which translates into second-chance points. Both teams also shoot free-throws well and so every single foul will add free points to the total. We look for both teams to come out and continue to fire on offense. Indiana needs a win desperately so we will get their best effort, while Dallas should be feeling confident after a beating Conn and Minn over the last 10 days. Take the Over and enjoy a nice WNBA Winner. | |||||||
07-05-19 | Orioles v. Blue Jays -125 | 4-1 | Loss | -125 | 8 h 56 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take #964 Toronto over Baltimore (7:10 p.m. Friday, July 5) The Blue Jays and Orioles have both struggled this year as they are both in the midst of rebuilding. The Jays have some promising young players that they have called up including Vladimir Guerrero Jr and Cavan Biggio. Aaron Sanchez is in desperate need of a good start as he hasn't won a game since April 27th. Facing the Orioles could help as Sanchez is 6-3 with a 3.90 ERA over 18 appearances (13 starts) against them in his career. Dylan Bundy will be pitching for Baltimore and he hasn't been very good for most of the season. Bundy went 1-4 with a 5.68 ERA over 5 starts in June and I think his struggles will continue in this one. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
07-04-19 | Twins -131 v. A's | 2-7 | Loss | -131 | 6 h 43 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. Take #915 Minnesota over Oakland (4:10 p.m. Thursday, July 4) The Twins have a big advantage in the rubber match of this series between teams who both have playoff aspirations and its with the starting pitching. Jose Berrios will be on the mound making his final start before he heads to the All star game. Berrios had an ERA of 2.06 in five starts in June allowing 2 earned runs or fewer in four of those starts. Tanner Anderson will be making his fifth start for the A's and Oakland has lost his four previous starts. Anderson has allowed 14 earned runs over 17.2 innings and he will have to be careful facing the offense that has scored the most runs in the American League. I think the Twins head back to Minnesota after taking the rubber match of this series. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
07-03-19 | Sweden (W) v. Netherlands (W) OVER 2 | 0-0 | Loss | -144 | 4 h 57 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #101/102 (5Dimes) Competition: Women's World Cup. Take Over in Sweden vs Netherlands (Wednesday @ 3:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. For this selection to win, there must be at least 3 goals scored. Two goals is a push. As per your selection on the over 2 goals in this game between Sweden and Netherlands, we watched the tournament long enough to know exactly how each team has success. They attack, attack and then attack some more. Sweden has scored in every game this tournament outside of a 2-0 loss to the USA - which isn't something to hang your head about. They feature an abundance of attacking talent and we believe this game is going to be as free flowing a game as any, especially with the way the Dutch like the move the ball around the field and attack via their trio of attacking players. Look, the Dutch have scored at least 2 gaols in their last 4 games, and 7 of their last 8 if you extend it to pre-tournament warmup games. The Dutch know how to put the ball in the back of the net and in a knockout game, while most think it will be a cagey affair, we expect both teams to go for it from the onset and for there to be plenty of counter opportunities at the other end. We will gladly lay the -155 line here as we believe this game as 2-1 written all over it. | |||||||
07-03-19 | Tigers v. White Sox -139 | 5-7 | Win | 100 | 3 h 7 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take #982 Chicago (AL) over Detroit (2:10 p.m. Wednesday, July 3) The White Sox fans get to finally see what the hype is all about as Dylan Cease is going to be making his major league debut today. Cease is being brought up to help bolster a pitching staff that hasn't had much behind All-Star Lucas Giolito. It will help that Cease is facing Detroit who has scored the fewest runs in all of baseball. The Tigers have gone 1-9 in their last 10 games and will send Daniel Norris to the mound. Norris has had success against the White Sox in the past, but he has struggled recently. He had an ERA over 5 in six June starts and hasn't won a game since May 12th and I think he will struggle in this matchup. I like Chicago in this one. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
07-02-19 | USA (W) v. England (W) +0.5 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -100 | 16 h 33 m | Show |
7-Unit Play. #102. Competition: Women's World Cup. Take England +180 to Qualify for Next Round vs the USA (Tuesday @ 3:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time + Extra Time and/or Penalties if required. For this selection to win, England must win by any means and advance to the next round. As per your selection England to qualify for the next round - available on 5Dimes - we believe it's time for another team to step up and end the US' reign as the best team in the world. Look, England has looked great at times this tournament and then a little sloppy for moments, but the one thing remains constant - they play great defense and we believe that is going to be the key here as they shut down the US. England has kept four straight clean sheets and their last goal allowed came in the opening group stage game. They've also scored more at least 2 goals in three straight and four of their five tournament games, which tells us that they can attack when needed and be potent enough to finish their chances. I wrote about England having a solid shot at redemption this tournament after falling in the Semi's in 2015, so the Lionesses know that this is their shot at redemption and we see them taking it vs a US team that is coming off a very emotional game vs France - one where they were on the back foot for most of the game, and one where a fluke free-kick and a counter attack were the difference. (We had over 2.5 goals so we aren't complaining). The point is, we've seen the US field better versions of their squad and this year, the attack looks very stagnant and as was on display vs France and Spain - the defense can be had - it's only a matter of taking your chances - and that's something England does well - scoring 2.67 goals across their last three games. It's going to be a battle, but ultimately we believe England is the more complete team on the field and at this price we need to make this a max play. | |||||||
07-02-19 | Sky v. Aces UNDER 160 | 82-90 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 51 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #629/630. Take Under - Chicago vs Las Vegas (-110) (Tuesday at 3:00pm). As per your selection on the Under, we like this game to be a very slow and sleepy affair this afternoon at the Mandalay Bay Events Centre. Look, Vegas comes into his game after posting 102 points in a thrilling OT win vs Indiana. In that game, they got to the foul line a whopping 32 times and made 26 of them. We just don't see that happening again. Chicago, on the other hand, has lost three straight and the defense has been questionable in each one of those games. We expect a more complete performance here in this spot as we believe they can keep up with the tired legs of Vegas who will be suffering from a bit of a letdown spot in today's afternoon game. The Chicago offense also hasn't been up to par of late and against a good defensive team in Vegas, we don't see them scoring more than 70 which would put this game right under the number. It should be noted that the Under has hit in 4 of the Sky's last 5 games, while the Aces are 5-0 to the under when playing on two days rest and 7-3-1 to the under while playing at home. Let's cash a nice winner on the Under here as these two teams sleepwalk through this afternoons game. | |||||||
06-30-19 | Mercury v. Storm +2 | 69-67 | Push | 0 | 7 h 29 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #628. Seattle Storm over Phoenix (Saturday at 7:00pm) As per your selection on the Seattle Storm, we've already seen this Storm team beat the Mercury on their home court and we expect them to do it again tonight, but we will gladly take the 2.5 points as a cushion. Look, Seattle is one of two remaining teams who are undefeated at home and we believe that continues tonight against a Phoenix squad who travels into tonight's game winners of two straight against LA - not very good and Indiana - also not very good. Phoenix will step up in class tonight and having lost three of their last four road games - we don't see a scenario where they get the win tonight. Seattle has played very well lately, beating a good Chicago team, losing a close one to a good Vegas team and beating a great Washington team on the road. We believe they are better in every facet and that will come to the forefront once again tonight. We love the fact that Seattle is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 vs the West and 3-1-1 ATS in their last 5 home games. The Mercury are just 1-4-1 ATS in their last 6 road games and 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a SU win. Take Seattle at home and enjoy a nice winner. | |||||||
06-30-19 | Phillies -129 v. Marlins | 13-6 | Win | 100 | 2 h 40 m | Show | |
2-Unit Play. Take #901 Philadelphia over Miami (1:10 p.m. Sunday, June 30) The Marlins have had the Phillies number recently beating them five straight times, but I think that is going to come to an end today. Jake Arrieta has already beaten Miami twice this season and I think he can come through for them again. Arrieta hasn't been spectacular recently but the Phillies have won three out of his last four starts and I think they get out of Miami with a win. Trevor Richards was rocked in his only start against the Phillies this season allowing 5 runs on 6 hits (2 home runs) in a 12-9 loss. Philadelphia snaps their losing skid to the Marlins in this one. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-29-19 | Diamondbacks -138 v. Giants | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 11 h 56 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. Take #961 Arizona over San Francisco (10:05 p.m. Saturday, June 29) Arizona doesn't have any time to waste if they are going to get back into the Wild card or divisional race. Having Zack Greinke take the mound certainly doesn't hurt, especially when he is facing the Giants in San Francisco. Greinke has never lost in San Francisco in seven starts as he is 5-0 with a 1.37 ERA and I think he can have similar success in this one. Drew Pomeranz had a season best 11 strikeouts his last time out, but he has been mostly bad this season as his ERA stands at 6.79. I like the Diamondbacks in this one. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-29-19 | Netherlands (W) v. Italy (W) +0.5 | 2-0 | Loss | -135 | 22 h 16 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #055. Competition: Women's World Cup. Take Italy +160 to Qualify for Next Round vs the Netherlands (Saturday @ 9:00 am). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time + Extra Time and/or Penalties if required. For this selection to win, Italy must win by any means and advance to the next round. As per your selection Italy to qualify for the next round - available on 5Dimes - we watched both the Italy/China and Netherlands/Japan game and the one thing we took away from both those games is how fresh Italy look, while the Netherlands labored to get through 90 minutes against an OK Japan team- needing a late penalty to secure their spot in this game. Italy has looked very impressive throughout the entire tournament, netting at least 2 goals in each of their three wins to this point. They play a free-flowing attacking brand of football that is very pleasing to watch. Against a tiring Netherlands squad, we believe the Italians have the upper hand as they were able to coast through their Round of 16 match with China and get rest for their top players towards the end of the game. The Netherlands looked absolutely gassed in their last game and we believe that carries over into this game and it is ultimately their downfall. When these two teams meet, goals are the answer and we just like what Italy has done offensively, so we'll gladly take great odds on them to advance. | |||||||
06-28-19 | Wings v. Liberty -2.5 | 68-69 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 46 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #611. Take New York Liberty over Dallas (Friday at 7:30 pm) As per your selection on the New York Liberty - we are going to bank on home/road splits to get us a win on the hardwood tonight. Look, we all know what Dallas was able to do in their last game vs Connecticut - they stunned the best team in the league by a point on their home court as +360 underdogs. That was a great win, but the fact of the matter remains, this Dallas team is brutal on the road. They manage just 66.5 road points per game and shot a brutal 35.7 percent from the field. They've also yet to win a game o the road going 0-4 and their average loss is by more than 15 points. The Liberty isn't anything special either, but at home, we believe they offer up great value as they've gone 3-1-1 ATS in their last five home games. You have the perfect storm for a Liberty team who has lost two straight to get back in the win column against a Dallas team that is brutal on the road and is walking into what is going to be a huge letdown spot after Wednesday's huge win. The Liberty are 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 vs the West while the Wings are a brutal 1-11 ATS in their last 12 road games, 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games playing on 1 day rest and just 3-12 ATS in their last 15 vs the East. Plug your nose, take the Liberty and enjoy a nice winner to start the weekend off! | |||||||
06-28-19 | Cubs -109 v. Reds | 3-6 | Loss | -109 | 8 h 12 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. Take #901 Chicago (NL) over Cincinnati (7:10 p.m. Friday, June 28) The Cubs are in first place in the National League Central while the Reds are in last place, but just a mere 6.5 games behind them. Cole Hamels has been fantastic in his 5 June starts going 2-1 with a 1.00 ERA and furthermore he has dominated the Reds in his career. Hamels is 11-1 with a 1.91 ERA across 17 starts he has made against Cincinnati in his career and I think he can lead the Cubs to a victory in this one. Sonny Gray has an ERA of 4.50 against Chicago over two starts and the Cubs got a recent boost with Craig Kimbrel picking up a save in last night's contest. I think Chicago picks up the win in game 1 of this series. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-28-19 | USA (W) v. France (W) OVER 2.25 | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 4 h 17 m | Show | |
5-Unit Play. #201 (5Dimes) Competition: Women's World Cup. Take Over 2.5 Goals (+120) - USA vs France (Friday @ 3:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. For this selection to win, there must be at least 3 goals scored. As per your selection on the over 2.5 in this game between the USA vs France - many expect a knockout game of this magnitude to be a tight cagey affair. Not us. Both of these times find their success in pushing the ball up field and attacking relentlessly over the course of 90 minutes. In the USA, you have some of the best players on the planet, and one of the best strikers in the game today in Alex Morgan. In France, you have world-class talent all around the pitch and a player like Eugenie Le Sommer who is extremely experienced and knows what it takes to win big games. These two teams are going to provide us with the game of the tournament today and goals will follow. France has scored two or more goals 13 of their last 15 matches, while the USA have scored 2 or more goals in 9 straight games. Both teams are extremely good via set pieces, so it wouldn't shock us to see one of them grab a goal from a free-kick or corner routine. Let's grab another WWC winner and extend our run. | |||||||
06-27-19 | Aces -140 v. Sparks | 74-86 | Loss | -140 | 11 h 7 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #601. Take Las Vegas over Los Angeles (Thursday at 10:30 pm) As per your selection on the Las Vegas Aces to get the job done tonight - we don't mind laying an extra few cents when the spread is so low and grab the money line instead of laying -2. There's no mistaking who the better team is in this matchup and we aren't scared by the weird low line - we believe the talent discrepancy between the two teams is too much for the Sparks to overcome. Look, everyone was high on Vegas before the season began calling for them to be crowned champs already. They've stumbled a bit out of the gates, but have won four of their last 5 games. They are starting to mesh together and Liz Cambage - the shiny new toy - is starting to leave her mark in these games. Vegas has been at home for a while now and they only make the short trip to take on LA - whereas LA has lost four straight including the last two on the road where they stunk up the joint completely. They now return home to face a hungry and motivated Vegas squad and we just don't see them simply scoring enough to keep pace with an Aces squad that is now up to second in the WNBA in offense, registering 83.2 PPG and first in 3pt shooting percentage (38.2) and first in field-goal percentage defense, allowing opponents to just 38% of their shots. This is a mismatch on paper and it will be a mismatch on the court. Don't overthink this one. | |||||||
06-27-19 | Edmonton v. Winnipeg UNDER 56.5 | Top | 21-28 | Win | 100 | 6 h 28 m | Show |
7-Unit Play. #681/682. Take Under in Edmonton vs Winnipeg (Thursday at 8:25 pm). As per your selection on the Under 58 points in this game between Edmonton and Winnipeg, you have to admire the way Edmonton has started the season with a new QB in Trevor Harris who has tossed 6 touchdowns already and 741 yards to boot. At some point - those numbers are going to start to even out and we believe it's tonight as he goes up against a very good Winnipeg defense team who limited BC to just 23 points. This is going to be Edmonton's first road game of the season and they typically don't go as smoothly as the home games do. We wouldn't be shocked if it was the Eskimos' defense that comes to the forefront tonight and keeps them in the game. The Eskimos gave up just 202 yards of total offense against BC - so we know how good they can be. On the flip side, the Bombers have been off for a week - and with an extra week of preparation for the Edmonton offense, we believe they will limit Edmonton in this spot and hold them to their lowest output of the season. We like the fact that the under is 4-1-1 in the Eskimos last 6 road games, while it is also hit in 5-straight Bombers games following a bye week (great defensive preparation) and has hit in 5 of the last 7 Bomber games vs the West division. We believe this game is going to be much lower scoring than most people think, so we'll side opposite the public. | |||||||
06-27-19 | England (W) +110 v. Norway (W) | 3-0 | Win | 110 | 28 h 6 m | Show | |
5-Unit Play. #051 (5Dimes) Competition: Women's World Cup. Take England to Qualify for Next Round vs Norway (Thursday @ 3:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time + Extra Time and/or Penalties if required. For this selection to win, England must win by any means and advance to the next round. As per your selection on England to advance to the next round - this selection can be found on Bovada or 5Dimes - we simply believe that they are the better team and after easily dispatching Cameroon, England will be up for the challenge against Norway who needed an extra 30-minutes of expended physical and mental energy to get past Australia. We've seen it from England all tournament, the ability to attack and the ability to attack from various different angles. Norway simply does not have the attacking abilities that England possess, as they haven't scored more than once in a QF fixture since 1991. In England, you also have a team that has registered three straight clean sheets and hasn't given up a goal since game one of the tournament - a last-minute consolation prize vs Scotland. We believe that England was one of the teams to watch out for at the start of the tournament and there is no way we are jumping off the train now. Take them to advance and enjoy a great soccer winner to start the week. | |||||||
06-27-19 | Rangers -114 v. Tigers | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 2 h 46 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take #961 Texas over Detroit (1:10 p.m. Thursday, June 27) The Rangers are holding their own the American League West and sit 5.5 games behind the Astros for first place. They have taken the first two games of this series in Detroit and I think they can finish off the sweep today. Spencer Turnbull has had a fine rookie season for the Tigers, but he hasn't figured it out yet pitching in Detroit. Turnbull is 0-5 with a 4.89 ERA in 9 starts at Comerica Park and I think he will leave this game without a win as well. Ariel Jurado will be starting for Texas and he should be able to get some out against one of the worst offenses in baseball. Texas gets it done. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-26-19 | Blue Jays v. Yankees -1.5 | 7-8 | Loss | -130 | 2 h 12 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. Take #914 N.Y. Yankees (-1.5 RL) over Toronto (1:05 p.m. Wednesday, June 26) James Paxton has won back to back starts and seems to be fully recovered from the knee injury that landed him on the disabled list. Paxton has been really good when pitching in the Bronx this year holding opponents to a .185 average and a 2.10 ERA over 34.1 innings (7 starts). It certainly doesn't hurt that Paxton is backed by one of the best offenses in the majors that is hitting home runs at a record pace. The Yankees set a major league record by hitting a home run in 28 consecutive games and I don't see why they won't continue that streak tonight against Blue Jays starter Trent Thornton. Thornton faced the Yankees on June 5th and allowed 4 runs over 5 innings allowing one home run. The Yankees have won 8 of the last 10 games against the Blue Jays at Yankee Stadium and I think they will complete the sweep in this series. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-25-19 | Nationals -1.5 v. Marlins | 6-1 | Win | 100 | 8 h 13 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. Take #953 Washington (-1.5 RL) over Miami (7:10 p.m. Tuesday, June 25) To say Max Scherzer has had a pretty good June would be a huge understatement. Scherzer has won all 4 of his starts allowing just three earned runs across 29 innings while amassing 44 strikeouts. I think Scherzer can keep it going against a Marlins team that hasn't been very good at home this season where they are 13-25. Scherzer will have to find a way to get Garrett Cooper out as he will bring a 14 game hitting streak into tonight's contest. Trevor Richards will have the ball for the Marlins and he took the 5-0 loss against the Nationals on April 21st allowing 3 runs on 6 hits with two of those hits leaving the ball park. Washington has been playing some good baseball recently and I think they can get back on track with their ace on the hill. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-25-19 | Lynx -124 v. Fever | 78-74 | Win | 100 | 8 h 4 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #601. Take Minnesota over Indiana (Tuesday at 7:00 pm). As per your selection on the Minnesota Lynx, we are going to roll with them here in this spot as they should be well rested and focused as they travel Indiana for a chance to extend their winning streak to two games. Minnesota just put up 93 points against a bad Liberty team, but we believe that was just what the doctor ordered as confidence was restored after four straight losses. They don't play again until June 30, so leaving it all on the court tonight is what we expect and we expect them to come away with a vital road win. Look, Indiana started the year off strong, but have won just 2 games over their last 7 tries. They come home tonight after a long road trip which saw them play in ATL, in Chi, and in SEA on June 23, and now have to travel across the country with their heads hung low because they simply cannot win ball games anymore. We love the fact that the Lynx are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 vs the Eastern Conference and we love the fact that the Fever are 0-4 ATS on Tuesday, and just 7-19 ATS in their last 26 home games. They simply don't defend their home court well enough to warrant a bet and they are also bad following an ATS win - going just 9-24. We like the Lynx in this spot tonight as we believe they are the better team and are catching the Indiana Fever in a bad spot tonight. | |||||||
06-25-19 | China (W) v. Italy (W) +121 | 0-2 | Win | 121 | 1 h 1 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. #152. Competition: Women's World Cup. Take Italy to Qualify for Next Round vs China (Tuesday @ 12:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time + Extra Time and/or Penalties if required. For this selection to win, Italy must win by any means and advance to the next round. As per your selection Italy to qualify for the next round - we are going to bank on the Italians looking much sharper then they did against Brazil when they saw their four-game unbeaten record come to an end. Italy offensively is in fantastic form as they have found the back of the net in 17 of their last 18 fixtures and we believe that's going to continue here against China. Look, China will not wow you offensively as they managed just 4 shots on target in three group stage games, scoring a measly goal. They are organized defensively, but in a knockout game, you are going to have to create chances for yourself and we just don't see China being able to do that against an Italian defense that has conceded just 2 goals in three group stage games. The Italians play an attacking brand of football which is refreshing and we believe they will take the fight to the Chinese Women in this matchup and ultimately their scoring touch will be too much for China to withstand. Take Italy. | |||||||
06-24-19 | Blue Jays v. Yankees -1.5 | 8-10 | Win | 100 | 8 h 58 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take #910 NY Yankees (-1.5, -135) over Toronto (7:05 p.m. Monday, June 24) The Yankees are looking to tie a major league record by hitting a home run in their 27th straight game tonight and with the lineup that they will roll out their I think they will be able to do that. Aaron Sanchez will certainly have his hands full and he hasn't won a game for the Blue Jays in a long time. Sanchez is 0-8 with a 7.55 ERA over his last 10 starts and facing the Yankees right now doesn't seem like a recipe for success. C.C. Sabathia will be on the mound for New York and he picked up his 250th career victory his last time out. Sabathia doesn't have to be special to get a win, he just needs to get through 5 innings and turn it over to the bullpen which I think he will be able to do. Take the Yankees in this one. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-23-19 | Fever v. Storm -5.5 | 61-65 | Loss | -106 | 7 h 8 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #668. Take Seattle over Indiana (Sunday at 7:00pm). As per your selection on the Seattle Storm, we hit the nail on the head in their last game when we had them winning outright vs Los Angeles. If you looked at their schedule, that was just their third home game of the season compared to 7 road games. Now they get to stay home and play in front of their home fans again and we believe they carry the momentum from last game into tonight and get another great win. Seattle has already beaten Indiana once this season on the road, and that was in the middle of a lengthy road trip. We believe the home court will play a huge role tonight and Seattle will grab another win to extend their lead atop the Western Conference. We love the fact that the Storm are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 home games while the Fever are a brutal 4-11 ATS in their last 15 vs the Western conference, 1-4 ATS in their last 5 following a SU win, and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 Sunday games. This will be Indiana's third straight home game and we believe the travel gets to the them and Seattle pulls away late in this one. | |||||||
06-23-19 | Padres v. Pirates UNDER 9.5 | 10-11 | Loss | -117 | 2 h 44 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take Under in San Diego at Pittsburgh (1:35 p.m. Sunday, June 23) The Padres are looking to avoid the sweep at the hands of the Pirates which could be tough as they have struggled in the first two games of this series. San Diego has scored just 4 runs in the first two games of the series and runs could be hard to come by with the way Steven Brault has pitched recently. Brault has given up just four runs over his last 21 1/3 innings and I wouldn't be surprised if he put up similar results today. Joey Lucchesi will be pitching for the Padres and he has had success against the Pirates in the past going 1-1 with a 1.50 ERA across two starts. Lucchesi has been better recently and he will need to be to help snap the Padres recent slide. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-22-19 | Australia (W) v. Norway (W) | Top | 1-1 | Push | 0 | 28 h 47 m | Show |
10-Unit Play. #101. Competition: Women's World Cup. Take Australia -150 to Qualify for Next Round vs Norway (Saturday @ 3:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time + Extra Time and/or Penalties if required. For this selection to win, Australia must win by any means and advance to the next round. As per your selection on Australia to advance to the next round - this selection can be found on Bovada - we simply believe that Australia is the better and more complete team and they will show their class in this matchup against a Norway team that has benefitted from extreme fortune to be in this spot. Look, Australia had their one letdown game against Italy in the opener, but as they stormed back against Brazil from 2-0 down and as they tore apart Jamaica 4-1, this team has shown me that they are resilient and that they have the attacking power required to outscore opponents when the game calls for it. Now they get to take on a Norway team who have benefitted from 2 own goals and 2 penalties, they've simply scored two of their own goals from open play. In a knockout round against a good opponent like Australia, we don't believe they are going to just find their offensive form and dominate. IT should be noted that Australia boasts an unbeaten record against Norway including a 4-3 win at the Algarve Cup in Feb 2018. We look for Australia to dominate possession in this game and continue their goal-scoring run to get them into the next round. | |||||||
06-22-19 | Mets v. Cubs -127 | 10-2 | Loss | -127 | 3 h 9 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take #902 Chicago (NL) over N.Y. Mets (2:20 p.m. Saturday, June 22) The Cubs sit atop the National League Central and I think they will add another win to their total after this one. Jose Quintana will be pitching for Chicago and he has pitched well in front of the home crowd this season. Quintana is 3-3 with a 2.98 ERA and has allowed just one home run over 45.1 innings pitched at Wrigley. Zack Wheeler hasn't been very good in June as he is 0-2 with a 6.11 ERA in three starts allowing 5 home runs across 17.2 innings and I feel like someone will take him deep for the Cubs in this matchup. The Cubs are 26-13 at Wrigley Field and I think they bounce back after losing last night's game. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-21-19 | Sparks v. Storm +1.5 | 62-84 | Win | 100 | 11 h 18 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #656. Take Seattle over Los Angeles (Friday at 10:30 pm). As per your selection on the Seattle Storm +1, we have to look at their schedule and notice that in the first 9 games of the season, they've only played 2 home games - with tonight being their third. We know they come off a long road trip, but with 5 days to rest and then finally getting to play a game in front of their home crowd (first home since June 4), we believe they come out motivated and firing today and add another home win to their record. Look, we know the Storm are much better with Bird and Stewart in their lineup, but they are simply making do with the players they have available to them. We know how good Seattle can be when they play to their strengths as they went into the fourth quarter vs Connecticut just down by 2, which came after a 74-71 road win vs a great Washington team. The Sparks have some serious issues and despite getting Candace Parker back in the lineup last game, they sputtered and shot the ball extremely poorly. We don't believe they are as good people make them out to be, and after losing both home games on their homeland (NY and Wash), they now hit the road for two against opponents that match up well against them. We believe the positive trends backing Seattle will continue tonight, as Seattle is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 meetings while hosting LA and 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings overall. The Storm is also 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home games and 20-7 ATS in their last 27 following an ATS loss. We look for the home team to come out and dominate this game for the full 40-minutes. | |||||||
06-21-19 | BC v. Edmonton -4 | 23-39 | Win | 100 | 34 h 55 m | Show | |
5-Unit Play. #692. Take Edmonton over BC (Friday at 9:00 pm). As per your selection on the Edmonton Eskimos, you gotta love what Trevor Harris did last week for the team to open up his account with Edmonton and replace a legend in Mike Reilly. Harris was able to connect for three touchdown passes with no interceptions and rack up 447-yards through the air. For an encore, Harris gets to go up against a porous BC Lions defense who was just torched last week both through the air by Matt Nichols (184 yards and three scores) and on the ground by Andrew Harris (16 carries 148 yards rushing). Harris has the ability to put up more big numbers as we believe CJ Gable can continue to run the ball well after gaining 154 yards on 20 carries last week vs Montreal. We believe Edmonton can keep the BC defense off balance and have a big day to push their record to 2-0. BC, on the other hand, got a solid day from their new acquisition as QB Reilly connected on 22 passes for 425 yards and one touchdown. He was also picked off twice last week. The Lions did not have a ground game to speak of last week and if that continues, it should spell doom for a BC offense that will need to score points to make up for their shortcomings on the defensive side of things. Yes, this is the return of Reilly to Edmonton, but we don't believe he has the weapons around him to make it a ?revenge? game and get the win. Edmonton has gone 4-2 ATS in their last six home games vs BC and we look for that to continue in a positive way this week. | |||||||
06-21-19 | Tigers v. Indians UNDER 7.5 | 6-7 | Loss | -104 | 8 h 59 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take Under Detroit at Cleveland (7:10 p.m. Friday, June 21) Cleveland has beaten up on the Tigers so far this season and I think they will get another win in this one. Trevor Bauer had one of his best performances of the season his last time out when he shut out the Tigers over 9 innings allowing just 4 hits and I think he can have similar results against the light hitting Detroit squad. Matthew Boyd will be on the bump for Detroit and he has pitched well against the Indians in his career. Boyd is 2-3 with a 2.90 ERA over 8 starts and he will be facing an Indians lineup that hasn't produced this year like they have done in years past. I think this game will stay under. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-20-19 | Mystics +5 v. Aces | 95-72 | Win | 100 | 11 h 1 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #647. Take Washington over Las Vegas (Thursday at 10:30pm). As per your selection on the Washington Mystics - boy were we wrong about them in the last game. They simply went into LA and kicked the Sparks' ass up and down the court in front of their home fans. Now they get to take on a Vegas team that has been waiting for them for four days. And while most may think that would be a benefit for Vegas, we believe the Mystics are just playing too good right now for them to falter against a team that is still trying to mesh together and incorporate some new bodies into the starting lineup. The Mystics are one of the best offensive teams in the league, ranking first for second in FG%, 3PT FG, 3PT FG%, FT% and assists per game. They have shown their depth time and time again this season with 6 players averaging double figures in scoring and two players above 8.8 ppg. We don't mind the quick turn around in this spot as the team is already out West and shouldn't be too affected by their travels. We like the fact that the Mystics are 8-3-1 ATS in their last 12 Thursday games, while the Aces are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 vs at team with a winning SU record and 0-3-1 ATS in their last 4 games following a win. In this series, the Mystics are also 8-3 ATS in their last 11 meetings in Vegas. Let's grab the points with the better team tonight. | |||||||
06-20-19 | Twins -1.5 v. Royals | 1-4 | Loss | -115 | 9 h 17 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. Take #919 Minnesota (-1.5 RL) over Kansas City (8:15 p.m. Thursday, June 20) Jake Odorizzi has always been a solid pitcher but he is having a career year this year and I think he will continue that tonight. Odorizzi (10-2, 2.24 ERA) leads the American League in ERA and the Twins have won the last 11 games he has started which includes a 5-4 win over the Royals his last time out. Glenn Sparkman will be on the bump for the Royals and he has not had much luck in his career when facing Minnesota. Sparkman is 0-3 with a 6.75 ERA in five appearances against the Twins and I think he will have his hands full with the lineup the Twins will put out there. Minnesota is 4-1 against the Royals so far this season and I think they will pick up another win tonight. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-20-19 | Canada (W) v. Netherlands (W) OVER 2.25 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 25 h 17 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. #351/352. Competition: Women's World Cup. Take Over 2.5 goals - Canada vs Netherlands (Thursday @ 12:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. As per your selection on the Over 2.5 goals, we are going to see fireworks in this one and we aren't going to miss out on the opportunity to bet a plus-money total. Look, we've yet to see the best from both these teams so far this tournament as they've done what needed to be done to secure all six points to date. We did, however, see a little more attacking flair from both squads in their latest games and we love the fact that the Netherlands have scored 2+ goals in four of their last five games, and Canada has netted at least twice in three of their last five. The Canadian defense hasn't really been tested much yet, so we look for the Dutch team to attack and put them under plenty of pressure in hopes of creating turnovers and burying their chances. Canada has not fared well against European opponents in the pass at this tournament, winning just 1 time, in 12 matches, and conceding 38 times while scoring only 11. In order for Canada to finish first in the group, they are going to need to win the game outright and while they will likely know that, we expect this game to be open and free-flowing. Take the over at a great price. | |||||||
06-19-19 | Brewers -107 v. Padres | 7-8 | Loss | -107 | 5 h 58 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. Take #951 Milwaukee over San Diego (3:40 p.m. Wednesday, June 19) This recent road trip hasn't gone the way the Brewers would of liked as they are 2-5 currently, but a win before they head back to Milwaukee could make the flight home a little easier. The Brewers have really struggled in the first two games of this series against the Padres scoring just one run, but I think that will change in today's matchup. Matt Strahm is 1-2 with a 5.60 ERA in 5 starts at Petco Park this season and he has lost his last three starts yielding 16 runs over 13.2 innings, allowing 2 home runs in each of those starts. Zach Davies seems like the perfect guy to lead the Brewers to a win as he has had a great season so far going 7-1 with a 2.60 ERA over 14 starts. Davies has dominated the Padres when pitching in San Diego winning all three starts there with a shiny 1.93 ERA. I like the Brewers to get out of town with a win. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-19-19 | Argentina (W) v. Scotland (W) -182 | 3-3 | Loss | -182 | 4 h 17 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. #255. Competition: Women's World Cup. Take Scotland -0.5 over Argentina (Wednesday @ 3:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. For this selection to win, Scotland must win outright. As per your selection on Scotland -0.5, we like what we've seen from Scotland so far this tournament, despite them owning a 0-2 record. Scotland gave England a very good game in their opener and was unlucky to against Japan in the second game as a simple turnover was their undoing. We've watched every minute of Argentina as well, and they are the anti-soccer of this group. They offer nothing going forward and in a game where they need to push bodies forward and win the game, we don't believe they are capable of producing a result and the attacking mindset - while completely outside of their skillset- will come back to bite them. Scotland does have attacking options and we believe they still have an outside chance at progressing as one of the best third-place teams in the tournament. We like the fact that Argentina hasn't scored in seven of their last 10 games, managing just 8 goals but conceding 20 in that span. Let's go with Scotland today and get a nice winner. | |||||||
06-18-19 | Brazil (W) v. Italy (W) OVER 2.5 | 1-0 | Loss | -119 | 28 h 44 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #204/205. Competition: Women's World Cup. Take Over 2.5 goals (-120) - Italy vs Brazil (Tuesday @ 3:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. As per your selection on the Over 2.5 goals, we've seen how brutal Brazil's defending has been over the course of the first two games, and with the Brazilians in need of a win, it would not shock me to see them push bodies forward in search of goals, and leave themselves exposed at the back for this talented Italian team to take advantage of. Australia is almost guaranteed a win vs Jamaica and so that would leave Brazil needing all three points in order to ensure qualification. Brazil is a veteran squad and they have a player like Cristiane and Marta who are goal scoring machines. It should be noted that both teams have scored in six of Italy's last seven matches and 19 of Brazils last 20 matches have produced at least 3 goals. The low line may indicate Italy resting players, and sitting back to defend, but with Brazil in all-out attack mode for this game, we believe the over has a legitimate chance at hitting. | |||||||
06-17-19 | Mets v. Braves -149 | 3-12 | Win | 100 | 8 h 5 m | Show | |
10-Unit Play. Take #954 Atlanta over NY Mets (7:20 p.m. Monday, June 17) If anyone on the Braves was allowed to have a bad start it was Mike Soroka as he allowed 5 earned runs over 5 innings his last time out. It was just the second time all season Soroka had allowed more than 1 earned run over the 11 starts he has made. Soroka is 2-0 with a 0.73 ERA against the Mets in two starts and I think he will bounce back and come through for Atlanta. He may not have to do much with the way the Braves are playing seeing how they have won nine of their last ten games. Zack Wheeler will be on the bump for New York and he is very familiar with the Braves having made 11 starts against them in his career. Wheeler hasn't faced them this season and he has struggled on the road going 2-3 with a 5.48 ERA. I think the Braves keep it rolling and pick up another in this one.

06-17-19 | Chile v. Japan +1 | 4-0 | Loss | -109 | 8 h 44 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #152. Competition: Copa America. Take Japan +1 (-115) over Chile (Monday @ 7:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. For this selection to win, Japan must win or draw. A one-goal loss is a push. As per your selection on Japan +1, we like the fact that Japan has been great defensively over their last three games keeping clean sheets in every single one. We also like the fact that Japan can in fact score goals and now get to two up against a Chile team who is struggling to keep the ball out of the back of their net, giving up at least a goal in their last five games, including at least 3 goals in each of their last five defeats. Japan is notoriously an organized team and with the fact that they must get off to a good start to keep pace with Uruguay in the group, we trust Japan more than we do Chile. Chile has seen their golden age of footballers hit the other side of 30 and it should be a while before Chile starts making noise internationally again. Chile is, in fact, the two-time defending Copa America champions but was given long odds to repeat this year. We believe they are on the decline as does Vegas and we will gladly grab the +1 goalie with Japan in this one. | |||||||
06-17-19 | Spain (W) v. China (W) OVER 2 | 0-0 | Loss | -102 | 1 h 44 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #304/305. Competition: Women's World Cup. Take Over 2 Goals (-110) - China vs Spain (Monday @ 12:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. For this selection to win, there must be 3 goals or more. Two goals is a push. As per your selection on the Over 2 goals in this game between China vs Spain, we know that qualification for the knockout stage is on the line in this one as both China and Spain sit in second place level with 3 points. Spain has played extremely well in both games so far this tournament as they were unlucky not to grab at least a point from Germany as they passed them off the pitch, dominated possession but just couldn't take their chances. We look for Spain to be much more clinical in front of goal and at least bag a brace as each of their last 5 wins has seen them score at least 2 goals. China has shown the ability to score goals in the buildup to the tournament, but the goal-scoring production has dried up a bit in the opening two games but not for a lack of attempts. Since this is essentially a knockout game - if we can get an early goal, which we believe will happen, the teams will loosen up and the opportunities will come in bundles. This game has 2-1 written all over it. | |||||||
06-16-19 | Aces v. Lynx UNDER 160.5 | 80-75 | Win | 100 | 8 h 46 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #637. Take Under 160 - Las Vegas vs Minnesota (Sunday at 7:00pm). As per your selection on the Under 160, we like the fact that both of these teams played on Friday and now get to play on a short turn around again. We expect a lot of tired legs and bodies which will result in lengthy scoring droughts. Look, Minnesota has lost three straight games and has given up 85+ in two of those games. In order to return to their winning ways, they are going to need to clamp down defensively and we like them to come out with a great defensive effort here vs a Vegas team that just dropped a 100 spot against a terrible New York team. They won't shoot the ball as well as they did in that game against a good defensive unit like Minnesota, so we can through that game out the window. We also like the fact that the trends point to the under in this one, as the under has hit in 4 straight LV games and 4 straight LV Sunday games. The Lynx also love playing to the Under as they are 19-7 to the under vs the West, 6-1 under in their last seven Sunday games and 5-0 under in their last 5 games following an ATS win. Let's cash another winner tonight and take the under. | |||||||
06-15-19 | Yankees -1.5 v. White Sox | 8-4 | Win | 100 | 5 h 11 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. Take #975 NY Yankees (-1.5 RL) over Chicago (AL) (7:10 p.m. Saturday, June 15) The White Sox are going to win the season series against the Yankees for the first time since 2012 but I like the Yankees to win this contest. Reynaldo Lopez has been as up and down this season as a pitcher could be and he has allowed 9 home run over his last 6 starts. Additionally, he has allowed 20 earned runs over his last four starts spanning 19.1 innings and even though he has had success against the Yankees in the past I think the Bronx Bombers will do some damage in this one. New York is getting healthier as Didi Gregorius and Aaron Hicks have made their way back while Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge are both on rehab assignments. Chad Green will serve as the opener/starter for the Yankees and New York is 4-0 in games he has thrown the first pitch for them. I think the Yankees end their three game losing streak with a win in this one. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-15-19 | Colombia v. Argentina OVER 2 | 2-0 | Push | 0 | 3 h 29 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #054/055. Competition: Copa America. Over 2 Goals (-130) - Colombia vs Argentina (Saturday @ 6:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. For this selection to win, there must be 3 or more goals score. Two total goals is a push. As per your selection on the over 2 goals, how can we not jump on this line in a game that features the likes of Messi, Dybala, Aguero, Lo Celso, and plenty of other Colombian star players. This game should be allowed to flow and be wide open with plenty of chances falling to both teams. We saw how poor Argentina was at defending in last year's World Cup and they certainly haven't gotten any better. Colombia will do well to take their chances here, but Argentina is favoured for a reason, so we see a 2-1 type game for La Albicelese. With the firepower up front that Argentina possess, this team should be scoring at least three goals per game, and essentially they have as they've won their last six games by at least a two-goal margin. We look for the likes of Messi and Aguero to come out and put the tournament on notice and find the back of the net at least twice themselves. Remember, we just need 2 goals for a push - but we think this game races over 2 and get's to at least 4 goals. | |||||||
06-14-19 | Sparks +3.5 v. Mercury | 85-68 | Win | 100 | 10 h 11 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #625. Take Los Angeles Sparks over Phoenix (Friday at 10:00pm). As per your selection on the Los Angeles Sparks, we are going to go to the well on a theory that has proved fruitful over the years and that is fading a team that is playing their first home game after a lengthy road trip. Phoenix comes into this game after a 1-2 road trip where they were beaten by Minny and Chicago to bookend a win at Indiana. Now they must turn around and play on just two day's rest while their opponent, LA, comes into this game with 6 days of rest after beating Minnesota on their own court. LA has been a great bet on Friday's going 10-3 ATS in their last 13 Friday games, while they've also gone 12-4-1 ATS in their last 17 games vs a team with a SU losing record and 18-7-1 ATS in their last 26 games while playing on 3 or more days rest. Phoenix is just 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games against the Sparks, so we are going to bank on the Sparks' fresh legs in this one and the fact that they own a top-4 FG% and 3pt FG%. Look for the Sparks to push the pace tonight and just simply wear down the Mercury in this one. | |||||||
06-14-19 | Indians -150 v. Tigers | Top | 13-4 | Win | 100 | 8 h 9 m | Show |
10-Unit Play. Take #919 Cleveland over Detroit (7:10 p.m. Friday, June 14) Game of the Week. Cleveland came in with high expectations again this season but have scuffled due to injuries and inconsistent play. Playing against the Tigers could help turn things around and give them some momentum as the All-Star break nears. The Indians took two of three games from Detroit earlier this season and I think they will win this matchup. Adam Plutko has been sharp in two of his three starts allowing two runs or fewer and I think he can limit a Tigers team that ranks in the bottom of most offensive categories. Ryan Carpenter has been brutal when pitching at home this season going 1-3 with a 10.53 ERA over four starts allowing 7 home runs across 19.2 innings. I like the Indians to take the first game of this series. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-13-19 | Raptors v. Warriors UNDER 211.5 | 114-110 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 45 m | Show | |
We think this might be the defensive game of the series so far. Toronto doesn’t want this to go to Game 7, and we think they play lock down defense tonight. The Warriors really have to chance but to leave everything on the court tonight in the last game ever at Oracle and also an elimination game and possibly the end of their dynasty. This should be a close game and in the fourth quarter both teams will really lock down and we just see the pace slowing down as this contest goes on. | |||||||

4-Unit Play. #620. Take Indiana over Dallas (Thursday at 8:00pm). As per your selection on the Indiana Fever, let's make it a simply play today and take them on the money line instead of laying the tricky three-points. The Fever are the better team in this matchup and have already beaten the Wings once this season. Dallas is 0-4 on the season and has been blown out in their last two losses, and now they might be without their best rookie, to go along with the absence of Parker and the traded Cambage. Dallas ranks among the worst teams in all offensive categories, so we don't see a way they will put up points against a Fever team who can play good defense at times. Indiana has lost back to back games, but against Phoenix and Seattle, those aren't the worst teams to lose to. We believe they get back to their winning ways tonight on the strengths of their FG% (ranked 1st) and 3pt FG% (1st). Indiana has already beaten this Dallas team, and we see no reason to believe why they can't do it again on the road this time. | |||||||
06-13-19 | Diamondbacks -118 v. Nationals | 5-0 | Win | 100 | 8 h 41 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take #953 Arizona over Washington (7:05 p.m. Thursday, June 13) Arizona and Washington need all the wins they can get as they both try to stay in the divisional race in their respective divisions. I think Arizona is going to get the win with Zack Greinke scheduled to pitch tonight. Greinke has been dominant against the Nationals in his career going 5-1 with a 1.46 ERA across eight starts, and with the way he has been pitching this season I think he can have similar results. Erick Fedde has pitched out of the bullpen for Washington but he has also made five starts. He hasn't been as effective as a starter and I think the Diamondbacks will be able to produce off him. I like Arizona in this one. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-13-19 | China (W) v. South Africa (W) OVER 2.25 | 1-0 | Loss | -118 | 28 h 35 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #004/005. Competition: Women's World Cup. Over 2.5 Goals (+110) -South Africa vs China (Thursday @ 3:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. As per your selection on the over 2.5 goals in this matchup, we have two teams that are facing elimination as a loss would certainly put them out of the tournament while a draw would do them no real good either. We expect both teams to go for the win here and that should lead to plenty of scoring chances and counter attacks and ultimately goals. South Africa has seen at least one first-half goal scored in each of their last 7 fixtures, while China has seen at least one goal scored from the 50th onward in six of their last 7 games. If we can get those two goals that history promises, we can surely find a third to cash this plus-money ticket. China has won the last four games vs South Africa and they've scored a whopping 28 goals in those games. We aren't going to predict a 13-0 scoreline as the USA did to Thailand, but we can easily see a 3-1 or 4-2 style of game. | |||||||
06-12-19 | Padres -126 v. Giants | 2-4 | Loss | -126 | 10 h 21 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take #909 San Diego over San Francisco (9:45 p.m. Wednesday, June 12) The Padres are looking to salvage a series split as they made a quick two game trip to San Francisco and I think Joey Lucchesi will help them do that. Lucchesi has faced the Giants twice this season going 1-1 and I think he will be on the right side of this one. He will be opposed by rookie Shaun Anderson who has struggled in 3 starts at AT&T Park going 0-1 with a 4.80 ERA. The Padres have taken five of the eight matchups these teams have played so far this season and I think they will get another win in this one. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-12-19 | Norway (W) v. France (W) OVER 2.5 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 4 h 36 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #57/58. Competition: Women's World Cup. Over 2.5 Goals (-135) - France vs Norway (Wednesday @ 3:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. As per your selection on the Over 2.5 goals in this matchup, how do we not like the home team to score at least two goals in this spot, given the fact that they have in fact averaged 3.4 goals over their last 10 matches (nine of those games being wins). We do believe Norway is a step up in class over South Korea, but the attacking prowess that was on display by France gives us every indication that they will attack consistently and have the talent on the field to take their chances when they shall arise. Norway has a bit of momentum in their own right, dispatching Nigeria 3-0 in their opener. They too showed attacking ability in that game and we expect this to be an open affair and a high scoring one given the fact that Norway has scored at least 2 goals in their last 6 meetings against fellow European countries, including at least three goals in 10 of Norway's last 12 matches against all opponents. Let's take the over here and enjoy some fireworks. | |||||||
06-11-19 | Blue Jays v. Orioles UNDER 8.5 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 4 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take Under Toronto at Baltimore (7:05 p.m. Tuesday, June 11) Toronto and Baltimore are both in rebuild mode and are playing this season with an eye on the future. There have been a lot of struggles already this season and there will be more for both. The Orioles may have found something in left handed pitcher John Means who has gone 3-1 with a 1.53 ERA at home this season. Means hasn't allowed more than one run in four out of his last six starts and I think he can deliver that kind of performance against Toronto that has had difficulty scoring runs lately. Trent Thornton has shown flashes for the Blue Jays but needs to be more consistent. He has pitched well on the road this season going 1-1 with a 3.21 ERA over 6 starts. I think this game will stay under. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-10-19 | Dodgers -1.5 v. Angels | 3-5 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 37 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. Take #917 LA Dodgers (-1.5 RL) over LA Angels (10:10 p.m. Monday, June 10) It's no shock that a Dodger pitcher is the leading candidate for the Cy Young Award, but it is a little surprising that its Hyun-Jin Ryu. Ryu comes into tonight's contest with a 9-1 record and a 1.35 ERA. He has allowed just 3 earned runs over his last 52.2 innings and he has had his way with the Angels in his career going 2-0 with a 0.83 ERA in three starts. Griffin Canning will be pitching for the Angels and he has pitched well but I think he is catching the Dodgers at the wrong time. The Dodgers have been playing well recently and I think they will keep it rolling in this one. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-10-19 | Warriors v. Raptors OVER 213.5 | Top | 106-105 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 29 m | Show |
Judging by this line it’s obvious that Durant is expected to take the floor tonight for the road team. That should help on the offensive end for Golden State. Toronto has been excellent in this series on the defensive end, but there has also been some poor shooting for the Warriors, and these guys won’t stay cold forever. And if Durant plays not only will he add to the scoresheet but that opens up a lot of things for the Golden State offense. And we don’t see Golden State slowing down Toronto much as they have been able to achieve their offensive goals on a regular basis in this series. | |||||||
06-09-19 | Scotland (W) v. England (W) OVER 2.75 | 1-2 | Win | 50 | 25 h 18 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #158. Competition: Women's World Cup. Over 2.5 Goals (-130) - Scotland vs England (Sunday @ 12:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. As per your selection on the ?over? 2.5 goals here, we are going to ride the history train and bank on history repeating itself. In the last 13 meetings between these two sides, the over has hit a solid nine times. That's a lot of goals for two teams who know each other very well and are content with beating the snot out of each other. England is a team that is capable of finding the net on many occasions. They've scored at least 2 goals in their last 6 wins and with a head to head record against Scotland of 11 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, we expect England to get the win and score plenty of goals in the process. Phil Neville (yes former Manchester United player) has let the England squad to a good record in just 18 months he's been in charge - winning almost 60 % of his games and seeing England score two or more goals in 12 of 19 matches. Scotland can take solace knowing they can beat good teams like Brazil - and the fact that they are a good first half team, scoring before 40 minutes in each of their last 5 games. We like the over to hit here and we can easily see a 3-2 type game. | |||||||
06-08-19 | Braves -139 v. Marlins | 1-0 | Win | 100 | 6 h 57 m | Show | |
2-Unit Play. Take #905 Atlanta over Miami (4:10 p.m. Saturday, June 8) Atlanta has beaten up the Marlins this season going 6-1 against them and I think they will win this matchup as well. Julio Teheran has been rolling over his last 6 starts allowing just three runs with the Braves going 5-1 over those contests. One of those games was against Miami when Teheran allowed just two hits over 6 innings in a 3-1 Atlanta win. Trevor Richards will be on the bump for the Marlins and he will have his hands full with the Braves lineup led by Freddie Freeman. Richards has faced Atlanta twice in his career without much success as his ERA is over 5 in those contests. I like the Braves to continue their dominance over the Marlins and pick up another victory. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-08-19 | Sparks v. Lynx -3.5 | 89-85 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 46 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. #650. Take Minnesota -3.5 over Los Angeles (Saturday at 3:30pm). *NOTE THE EARLY START TIME** Let's get another win tonight after cashing in on Thursday. Be sure to check out Doc's Soccer who is on a 9-3 +3280 run or Doc's Hockey who is 7-2 +2405. As per your selection on the Minnesota Lynx tonight, we have no problem going back to the well with this team once again as they wrap up an early season homestand. We were accurate with our prediction for their last game as they turned the ball over fewer times and they really locked in defensively. As will be the case again tonight, their home court will be defended and playing on just 1 days rest help them stay in rhythm. They have no injuries to report of, so a fully healthy squad will be able to take care of an LA team who comes in after suffering a bad loss to Connecticut just one day ago and now must travel again for the third stop of their fourth game road trip. We know the Sparks are without Parker, but they could also be without a good player in Beard who is listed on the injury report as questionable. The Sparks don't have the offensive scoring power or options that the Lynx have, so we believe Minnesota wins this one at home going away. | |||||||
06-08-19 | Germany v. Belarus OVER 2.5 | 2-0 | Loss | -182 | 4 h 2 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #225488. Competition: Men's Euro Cup Qualifiers. Over 2.5 Goals (-160) - Belarus vs Germany(Saturday @ 2:45 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. We are going to keep this write up short and to the point. As per your selection on the over 2.5 goals, at some point Germany is going to return to their dominant form and we believe that starts here today. During their build up to last year's WC, they played to the over 2.5 goals in nine of their 10 matches (4.7 total goals per match). Now they get a nice easy match to start their Euro Qualification and they should be able to take advantage of a bad Belarus team. Germany has beaten teams ranked outside the top 20 in 16 of their 18 matches, averaging 3.22 goals per game. Belarus sits #81, so you see where I'm going with this. Germany is going to score at least 3 goals on their own and cash the over for us with ease. | |||||||
06-07-19 | Raptors v. Warriors -4.5 | Top | 105-92 | Loss | -107 | 8 h 6 m | Show |
The Warriors can win this game and be right back in the driver’s seat for the series. They have been here before and had some scares in the postseason before, but they have so much experience and they won’t be scared and will just take care of business. They get some help tonight as Klay Thompson should be back in the lineup, and they know there’s a chance that Durant could be back for Game 5. They know there’s no reason to panic. We think scoring will be a lot better for the home team from Game 3 with Klay back here, and Toronto has shown they are hot on offense as well. But we think the Warriors will play with a purpose here with their backs against the wall, and we think they take care of business tonight. | |||||||

3-Unit Play. Take #955 Atlanta (-1.5 RL) over Miami (7:10 p.m. Friday, June 7) Even though the Marlins have the worst record in the National League, they have been playing better baseball as of late, but I don't think it will matter with the way Mike Soroka has been pitching for the Braves. Soroka has allowed just one home run all season and 9 earned runs over 57.1 innings pitched. Atlanta made a move to sign Dallas Keuchel which will only help their chances of winning the division again this year. Jose Urena will be pitching for Miami and has pitched well recently, but he owns an ERA over 6 in 15 appearances (12 starts) against the Braves in his career. I like the Braves to continue their success against the Marlins in this one. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||

4-Unit Play. #009. Take St. Louis over Boston (Thursday, June 6 at 8:08 p.m.). As per your selection St. Louis, we are backing the team that comes into the game with a full compliment of players to deploy. Boston is in serious trouble of having Chara and Grzelcyk miss this game due to injury. If they can't go, that would be two key defensemen missing from a lineup that lacks depth among the blue line. We believe even if they do suit up, they won't be effect especially not against a fast paced, hard hitting Blues team that is relentless on the forecheck. The Blue showed us some resolve in Game 4 by taking the win 4-2 to even the series. It wouldn't shock me now if this series was finished with the Blues hoisting the Cup on their home ice in Game 6. It should be noted that the Blues goalie, Jordan Binnington has a stellar record of 12-2, 1.82 GAA and a .935 save % after a loss. We aren't saying it's going to be easy for St. Louis to go into Boston and win a crucial game, but the Blues have shown us the ability to win crucial games on the road and at this juicy of a line, against a team fighting the injury bug, we can't pass it up. | |||||||
06-05-19 | Raptors v. Warriors -4.5 | 123-109 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 56 m | Show | |
The Warriors have gone through some big lulls this season as a team. We wondered at points in the season if this team was as good as previous seasons. But when we get down to the nitty gritty we just think they were bored at times. This team has accomplished so much and the desire didn’t seem to be there. But when they were challenged, either after a bad game or by facing some kind of adversity, this team normally responded very well. And we think with these injuries tonight the team is facing that the players on the court are going to play with a chip on their shoulder. When this team and Curry are motivated, good things normally happen for them. They have Toronto right where they want them having stolen a game in Canada. We think the Warriors will rely more on defense tonight since they are likely to be missing a lot of scoring. The numbers don’t show it because of the pace, but this is one of the best defensive teams in the NBA. And we think Curry will lift his game up enough to cover this number. | |||||||

3-Unit Play. #638. Take Chicago over Washington (Wednesday at 7:00pm). We are traveling today so no time for a lengthy write-up. We like the Sky tonight to stay within the number for a few reasons. Chicago has been waiting for four days to play this game, so they've had ample time to get ready and game plan for the Mystics and particular Delle Donne. The Sky are coming off an impressive home win against a good Seattle team and will have their confidence sky high. The Mystics are coming off a good win against Atlanta, but Atlanta isn't going to be as good this year as people were making them out to be, and with a quick turnaround trip to NY on deck, the Mystics could get caught looking ahead. We don't like laying double digits in the WNBA this early on in the season as we prefer to pick our spots to do so. We do see a Washington win, but Chicago is an active dog in this one tonight. The Sky are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 road games and 5-2 ATS overall. They are better than most give them credit for and tonight will be a closely contested matchup. | |||||||
06-05-19 | Dodgers -1.5 v. Diamondbacks | 2-3 | Loss | -100 | 4 h 27 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. Take #953 LA Dodgers (-1.5 RL) over Arizona (3:40 p.m. Wednesday, June 5) The Diamondbacks have been in a rut recently and I don't think they will snap out of it in tonight's contest. Kenta Maeda has won his last four starts yielding just 5 runs over 23 2/3 innings and I think he can take advantage of Arizona's struggles. Jon Duplantier pitched well in his first major league start picking up the win against the Mets but he is facing a different beast in the Dodgers lineup that is getting production all throughout their lineup. Los Angeles has won five out of the six matchups between these two teams this season and I think they will pick up another victory tonight. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-04-19 | Rays v. Tigers UNDER 8.5 | 6-9 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 9 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take Under 8.5 Tampa Bay at Detroit (7:10 p.m. Tuesday, June 4) The Rays come into tonight's contest on a 3 game losing streak but they have a couple of reasons to feel good about their chances of getting a win tonight. Facing the Detroit Tigers who are one of the worst teams in all of baseball and are missing some of their regulars is one. Having the reigning CY Young Award winner take the mound is another. Blake Snell had a couple hiccups in some of his starts to begin the season but he has allowed just 6 runs over his last 5 starts spanning 30.1 innings and I think he will limit Detroit in this one. Ryan Carpenter has had two good starts in a row where he allowed 2 runs in each and he has never faced the Rays so I think that will be an advantage. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-03-19 | Phillies -136 v. Padres | 2-8 | Loss | -136 | 11 h 4 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. Take #953 Philadelphia over San Diego (10:10 p.m. Monday, June 3) The Phillies have lost four games in a row but I think they will break that streak when their ace takes the mound tonight. Aaron Nola got off to a slow start to his season but he has been impressive as of late going 4-0 with a 2.96 ERA in his last 5 contests. Bryce Harper has started to swing the bat better recently and that will only help Philadelphia. The Phillies also made a move to beef up their outfield by trading for Jay Bruce over the weekend. Eric Lauer will be on the mound for the Padres and he has looked better in his most recent starts, but I think he will have a tough time against a team that is desperate for a win. I like the Phillies here. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
06-03-19 | Bruins +103 v. Blues | 2-4 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 1 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. #007. Take Boston over St. Louis (Monday, June 3 at 8:08 p.m.). As per your selection on Boston, we've been watching hockey long enough to know a team of destiny when we see one. While the Blues story of last place to Cup Finals is great, Boston is like a cockroach you just can't kill. No matter what gets thrown their way, they somehow finds a way to escape unscathed and piss off every other fan base in the process. The Bruins will, in fact, win this game and then clinch the Cup on home ice which will, in turn, make every fan base outside of Boston irate. The Bruins simply have the Blues number and you can see the frustration creep into their game. They are afforded no time on the puck and their PP has been ice cold. Meanwhile, Boston looks dangerous every time they touch the puck and simply can't be stopped while they have the man advantage. Much was made of Tuukka Rask's postseason numbers and outside of Game 2 - he's been outstanding and he's been able to keep those numbers right where they are with no sign of a dip forthcoming. Boston is the better team, the more experienced team and the team with the better overall depth. We believe this Game 4 is a formality before Boston parades the Cup all over TD Garden in Game 5. | |||||||
06-02-19 | Warriors +2 v. Raptors | 109-104 | Win | 102 | 32 h 38 m | Show | |
The Warriors are much better than they played in Game 1. They had a lot of time off before this series, and sometimes it is tough for a team to get into gear after that much time away from the court. But at times recently the Warriors need a kick in the butt to get things going, and that Game 1 result probably was the thing to do the trick. This team is in pretty bad shape if they go down 2-0, and we expect them to play with some purpose tonight and get this series back on track. And remember, the Raptors have played much more basketball in this playoffs with some long series, and Golden State should have some good energy here despite some injuries. | |||||||

4-Unit Play. #631/632. Take Under in Connecticut vs Las Vegas (Sunday at 6:00pm). We are traveling today so no time for a lengthy write-up. We like the under in this spot because that's what history tells us. The under has hit in 5 of the Sun last 6 games following an ATS loss and 4 out of the last 5 Sun games following a SU loss. They are also 6-2 to the under while playing on 1-day rest and 9-4 to the under in their last 13 road games. The Under has hit for the Aces in 4 of the last 5 home games (1 push) and we expect both teams to be extremely tired after both playing road games just two days ago - both losing efforts. When fatigue sets in, it's harder to get your legs into your jump shot and we expect to see a lot of missed shots today. We see a total around 160. Take the Under. | |||||||
06-01-19 | Astros -150 v. A's | 5-1 | Win | 100 | 11 h 38 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take #973 Houston over Oakland (10:10 p.m. Saturday, June 1) The Astros have won five out of the six games played against Oakland this season and with the success Justin Verlander has had against the A's in the past I think they will add another victory. Verlander is 12-6 with a 2.73 ERA in 20 career starts against the Athletics and even though Houston is short handed I think Verlander will lead them to a win. Brett Anderson has not had much luck against the Astros as he is 1-3 with a 6.97 in four starts in his career. I think Houston continues their dominance against the A's and wins this one. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||

4-Unit Play. #006. Take St. Louis vs Boston (Saturday, June 1 at 8:20 p.m.). We are traveling today so no time for a lengthy write up. We like the Blue to continue the momentum they started in Game 2 with that OT win. They dominated the Bruins for the last 40 minuets and the first 6 minutes of Overtime. Playing a Stanley Cup game at home for the first time in 49 years, the place will be rocking and the Blues will feed off that energy and grab a 2-1 series lead. | |||||||

4-Unit Play. #224204 Competition: Champions League Final. Take Over 2.5 Goals (-130) - Tottenham vs Liverpool (Saturday @ 3:00 pm). Includes 90 Minutes + Injury Time. As per your selection on the ?over? 2.5 goals, we simply believe this game is going to be a little more wide open than people think, and with both teams likely getting back key attacking pieces, this game has the potential to be a high-scoring instant classic. Look, we understand that Finals are generally tighter and cagier affairs than normal games, but these two teams know each other extremely well and so there will be no feeling out process. If Liverpool can exert their dominance and the high pace of play in the opening minutes - something we believe they will do, an early goal will just allow them to pick apart Spurs on the counter-attack and push this total well over the number. We are banking on an early goal and we believe we'll get it, considering the opening goal has been scored inside the first 15 minutes in three of Tottenham's last 4 games, and Liverpool have scored before half time 11 of their last 14 competitive matches. Both games this season between these two teams finished 2-1 and we saw how capable Tottenham is going forward when they need to be. Take the over and enjoy some English fireworks tomorrow in Madrid. | |||||||

3-Unit Play. #619. Take Las Vegas over Phoenix (Friday at 10:00pm). As per your selection on the Las Vegas Aces, we faded them in their opener against LA but we were wrong in doing so. The Aces showed us that they are in fact for real and that the talent they have littered up and down their line up can, in fact, ball out and mesh together every so beautifully. Now they will likely get Liz Cambage added to the mix for this one and that only makes their lineup more potent. They get to travel to face a Phoenix team that looked sloppy and careless with the basketball in their season-opening loss to Seattle. We don't know how Phoenix will be able to slow down the many shooting options the Aces will throw at them, and as such we believe the Aces will race out to solid win to and improve their record to 2-0. The Aces are 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 Friday Games and 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 games vs a team with a losing record. | |||||||

3-Unit Play. Take Under in Detroit at Atlanta (7:20 p.m. Friday, May 31) Mike Foltynewicz was an All Star last year and got off to a rough start to his season as he worked his way back from an injury. He has been much better in his two most recent starts allowing two earned runs over 12 innings. Foltynewicz should be able to take advantage of a Detroit offense that has struggled to put up runs for most of the season. Spencer Turnbull has been a pleasant surprise for Detroit this season after not showing much in 4 appearances last year in the majors. Turnbull will have to be careful of rookie sensation Austin Riley who has been mashing ever since his call up. I think the pitchers will keep the offenses down and this game stays under.

05-30-19 | Warriors +1.5 v. Raptors | 109-118 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 48 m | Show | |
When we set this total for the Game 1 matchup we came up with a number around 207. We think there is some great value in the under. The Raptors slowed the game down a lot in the Eastern Conference Finals, and we think they will employ the same strategy here. Both teams are fresh with a lot of time off, and that means they will have a lot of energy for defense. And with the extra time off, the offenses might be rusty. We expect some cold shooting, especially in the first quarter before teams get warmed up. And we just have to love the Warriors getting points here. They have all the experience. They know this might be their last chance at a championship as there are a lot of questions in the offseason with this roster. They are just flat out a much better team – throw the regular season results out as the Warriors barely cared this season during some stretches but they are in full playoff form now and playing some of their best basketball of the season despite injuries. | |||||||

4-Unit Play. Take #966 Texas (-1.5 RL) over Kansas City (8:05 p.m. Thursday, May 30) Mike Minor has provided the Rangers with some outstanding pitching this season and I think he will continue that in tonight's game. Minor is 3-1 with a 2.08 ERA in five starts at home this year and he led Texas to a 6-1 win over the Royals on May 15th when he allowed 1 eared run over 5 innings. The Rangers have played really well at home (17-8) whereas the Royals have not been very good on the road (7-20) and I think that is an important factor. Jakob Junis will toe the rubber for Kansas City and he has been roughed up in his 5 starts in May as he is 1-3 with a 5.59 ERA. The Rangers are rolling right now and I think they will pick up another victory tonight. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
05-29-19 | Blues v. Bruins UNDER 5.5 | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 9 h 24 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #003/004. Take Under in St. Louis vs Boston (Wednesday, May 29 at 8:08 p.m.). As per your selection on the Under 5.5 goals, the sportsbook caught on and decided to tack on the hook to the total. We do believe that at 5.5, the total is staying under the number simply due to the fact that the teams have already seen each other and they can make adjustments accordingly. With a total of 5, we are always going over, but we just don't see 6 goals being scored in this game as St. Louis will look to do a better job at preventing Boston from getting shots on goal, and Boston will continue to be a tough team to score against in any scenario. IT should be noted that after the first period of Game 1 the Blue allowed Boston to outshoot them 30-12. The Blues are in fact a good defensive team and we expect that number to be cut in half and we expect Binnington to stand tall in goal. We know what we are going to get from Tuukka this postseason as he has been lights out. We look for a 2-1 or 3-1 type game tonight as this crucial Game 2 could end up deciding the series. | |||||||
05-29-19 | Blue Jays v. Rays UNDER 7.5 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 8 h 13 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take Under Toronto at Tampa Bay (7:10 p.m. Wednesday, May 29) Blake Snell hasn't been as lights out this season as he was last year when he won the American League Cy Young but he has had plenty of success against the Blue Jays in his career. Snell has been nearly unhittable against Toronto in his past four starts going 2-0 with a 0.40 ERA which includes a start on April 13th where he didn't allow a run over six innings. Trent Thornton will be on the bump for the Jays and he will look to be better against the Rays this time around. Thornton has shown improvement over his last three starts going 1-0 with a 3.06 ERA and I think he can keep the Tampa offense at bay in this one. I think this game stays under as the Rays go for the sweep. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
05-28-19 | Royals v. White Sox -148 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 10 h 46 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take #970 Chicago (AL) over Kansas City (8:10 p.m. Tuesday, May 28) Lucas Giolito has put it together this year and is finally making good on the promise he has shown. He has been rolling this month going 4-0 with a 1.35 ERA across 5 starts allowing one run or fewer in four out of those five starts. He has never lost to the Royals going 4-0 in eight starts and I think he will pick up another win tonight. Kansas City has struggled on the road this season going 7-17 and they will send Brad Keller to the mound. Keller beat the White Sox on Opening Day but he hasn't been very good over his last four starts with an ERA over 5 and the Royals losing three out of those contests. I think Giolito keeps it going and leads the White Sox to another victory. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
05-28-19 | Fever v. Sun UNDER 160.5 | 77-88 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 8 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. #613. Take Under in - Indiana vs Connecticut (Tuesday at 7:00pm) As per your selection on the under 160.5, we simply believe both teams are due for a little bit of regression after opening the season off with good wins. Indiana got the better of the lowly Liberty 81-80 but we simply don't believe they can shoot 42% from the floor against a good Connecticut team, nor can they get to the foul line 28 times as they did against New York. The Fever is going to be better than they were last season, bu it's still going to be a slow build and a slow learning process for a team that didn't win their first game until Game 11 last year. A 1-0 start looks good on paper, but consecutive road games will have them on the losing end tonight. Connecticut, on the other hand, got a solid win against a good Mystics team, but it shouldn't be noted that the Mystics were without Delle Donne. Sure, Connecticut put up 84 points, but if this game goes they way we believe it will go, they will need to put up close to 100 to get this game over the total. We are going hard fade on Indiana's offense in this one against a much better team and better defense, while understanding that the Sun will get theirs, but it won't be enough to push the total over the number. The Under has hit in 6 of the Fever's last 7 games following a SU win and 5 of their last 6 games following an ATS win. | |||||||
05-27-19 | Blues v. Bruins OVER 5 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 9 m | Show | |
4-Unit Play. #001. Take Over in St. Louis vs Boston (Monday, May 27 at 8:08 p.m.) As per your selection on the over 5 goals, anytime we see a number set at 5, we will likely take the over as 3-2 is one of the most common final results in hockey, and even as such we don't mind the push. There is always an opportunity for an empty netter if we get to 3-2 at some point in the third so we like our chances. As per how these two teams stack up, they've both had plenty of time to rest up and we don't think that the time off will affect either team as this is the Cup Finals and if you're not ready to play Game 1, that could cost you the series. Both teams have great players and this could be a higher scoring series than many predict since both goalies are posting save %'s well above average. At some point that has to regress and it's not exactly much to ask for each team to score twice on their opponent. We believe we are going to see a 4-3 type game tonight, so we'll take our chances on the over. | |||||||
05-27-19 | Brewers v. Twins OVER 9 | Top | 5-4 | Push | 0 | 8 h 13 m | Show |
10-Unit Play. Take Over Milwaukee at Minnesota (7:10 p.m. Monday, May 27) This is a matchup of two of the best offenses in all of baseball and I think their will be plenty of fireworks in this one. Michael Pineda will be on the bump for the Twins and he is still trying to round into form as he enters the game with a 4-3 record with a 5.43 ERA. Christian Yelich hit his major league leading 21st home run last night and I expect the Brewers offense to hit a couple homers off of Pineda. Gio Gonzalez has been mostly good for Milwaukee but he was shaky in his last start and I think he will have a tough time navigating the Minnesota lineup that has hit the most home runs and scored the most runs in the majors. I expect a lot of runs in this one and for this game to go over. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
05-25-19 | Bucks +2 v. Raptors | 94-100 | Loss | -107 | 8 h 38 m | Show | |
This is a season-defining game for both teams, and we expect both clubs to be at their top level defensively. Offense hasn’t consistently worked out for either of these teams consistently in this series, so we think they will rely on defense to get the job done. While the Bucks are on the ropes here and facing elimination, they are just a small underdog and if they win they will be a pretty big favorite for Game 7. Despite some real lackluster play in the last two games, we still think they are the better team and they will put their best foot forward here. We just can’t see them playing three straight duds. We still think they have a great chance to win this series. | |||||||

4-Unit Play. Take #975 San Diego over Toronto (7:05 p.m. Friday, May 24) Toronto is going to do something no other team has done in major league baseball history when they call up Cavan Biggio for tonight's game. When Biggio plays tonight with fellow rookie Vladimir Guerrero Jr it will be the first time two sons of Hall of Fame players will be playing together on the same team. Although it is pretty cool for the Blue Jays to do this, I don't think it will result in a win for them. The Padres are feeling good about themselves after sweeping the Diamondbacks and Joey Lucchesi has an ERA of 3.12 over his last three starts. The Blue Jays have been dreadful at home recently losing nine of their last eleven games at the Rogers Centre and scheduled starter Trent Thornton is 0-3 with a 6.75 ERA in 5 starts in Toronto. I like the Fathers to keep their winning streak going in this one. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
05-23-19 | Raptors v. Bucks -7 | Top | 105-99 | Loss | -109 | 7 h 27 m | Show |
Everyone remembers the last game in an NBA playoff series, and the Bucks were routed in Game 4 in Toronto. We will give this team a mulligan, however, as we think they just had a bad game. It happens to the best of teams. But if Game 3 had gone a little different, this could easily be an elimination game for the Bucks. We think this is a great spot for them to rebound, and we don’t at all think that the Raptors have the momentum in this series. The Bucks will play their best at home and have a chance to close it out in Game 6 in Toronto. We took the over last time out as these teams had just come off Double OT and were tired. They should be more well rested here, and we expect a lower-scoring game. We think the defenses will really step up as this is a crucial game in what is now a 3-game series. And we think there’s a decent chance this could be a blowout and that the Raptors will be held to a real low score. | |||||||
05-22-19 | Mariners -116 v. Rangers | 1-2 | Loss | -116 | 3 h 17 m | Show | |
3-Unit Play. Take #965 Seattle over Texas (2:05 p.m. Wednesday, May 22) The Rangers have won the last four times these teams have played but I think that streak will come to an end. Marco Gonzales will be on the mound for the Mariners and he was dominant when he pitched against the Rangers on April 25th shutting out Texas over 7 innings while striking out 9 in a 14-2 win. Jesse Chavez will start the game for Texas but he won't last long as he has been a reliever for most of the season and hasn't pitched more than 2 innings in any game. Seattle has dropped a couple of close games in the first two games of this series but I think they get out of town and avoid the sweep with a win. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
05-21-19 | Bucks -3 v. Raptors | Top | 102-120 | Loss | -105 | 8 h 44 m | Show |
The advantage goes to the better team when two teams are tired, and after the long Game 3 with two overtimes we think that gives the Bucks the advantage here in Game 4. Toronto needed an almost superhuman effort to win Game 3, and we think the Bucks had an off game. But this team is focused and determined and we don’t see them losing this game. We saw what happened after the Denver/Portland four OT game when defense went out the window in the following game with tired legs. We expect to see a similar result here and we think the scoring will be way up from what we saw in regulation in Game 3. We expect more shots to drop, and we think Milwaukee will do everything they can to ensure that they have a chance to close this out in Game 5 back at home, especially now that their probable NBA Finals opponent is already waiting and resting after Golden State swept the Blazers (and they have major injuries they are hoping for extra time to heal). | |||||||

4-Unit Play. #026. Take St. Louis over San Jose (Tuesday, May 21 at 8:08 p.m.). As per your selection on St. Louis, this series wraps up tonight. The Blues have been the better team for the majority of this series and in Game 5, they dominated for 50 out of the 60 minutes before posting a 5-0 win on the road in a very tough place to play. If you actually watch the games, you'll notice the body language of both teams. St. Louis' has a swagger about them that makes them seem invincible while the Sharks are slouching constantly and are in that ?it's happening again? kind of mood. This game will be a complete indication of how the series has gone and the Blue will dominate in front of their home crowds to complete what has been a really remarkable season for a number of reason. We loved the goaltending matchup before the series and we love it even more now, as Binnington has found his groove again and the Blues are just playing more confident in front of him. Take the Blues and enjoy a nice winner! | |||||||
05-21-19 | Reds v. Brewers -133 | 3-0 | Loss | -133 | 9 h 34 m | Show | |
7-Unit Play. Take #908 Milwaukee over Cincinnati (7:40 p.m. Tuesday, May 21) Gio Gonzalez wasn't on a team to start the year but things worked out where he was signed by the team where he finished last season and it has worked out beautifully. Gonzalez has been impressive in his four starts for Milwaukee going 2-0 with a 1.69 ERA, not allowing more than two earned runs in any of those starts. Gonzalez has a winning record against the Reds in his 12 career starts with an ERA under 3 and I think he can take advantage of a team that has struggled in games away from Cincinnati. Sonny Gray is still in search of his first win and I think it will be difficult against a Milwaukee team that has the second best home record in the National League. Gray has had some good chances to win games this season but he has struggled in his last three outings with an ERA of 5.65 without any decisions over that time. Milwaukee swept the Reds in a three game series earlier in the year and I think they will take game 1 of this series. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
05-20-19 | Braves -130 v. Giants | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 10 h 30 m | Show | |
5-Unit Play. Take #955 Atlanta over San Francisco (9:45 p.m. Monday, May 20) Atlanta had a long flight to stew about dropping the final game of a three game set to the Brewers, but I think they will be able to bounce back in the first game of this series against the Giants. Mike Soroka has been everything the Braves could of asked for and more so far this season. Soroka has allowed more than 1 run in just one of the six starts he has made this season and he is 2-0 with a 0.96 ERA in three starts on the road. As good as Soroka has been on the mound, I'm sure he would like a little more run support as they Braves offense has averaged only 2.8 runs in his starts. I think Atlanta's offense could be more productive tonight against scheduled starter Andrew Suarez who will be making his first start in the majors this year. Suarez went 7-13 with a 4.49 ERA last year for San Francisco but he has an ERA over 6 in Triple-A this year and I think he will have his hands full tonight with the Braves dangerous lineup. Best of Luck - Doc's Sports | |||||||
05-20-19 | Warriors -3 v. Blazers | Top | 119-117 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 9 m | Show |
Golden State is playing some of their best basketball of the season right now. Maybe some of these players hate Kevin Durant and want to win in spite of him, but they have rallied around each other and things have been working out great. Portland, at the end of Game 3, reminded me of the old Clippers team when they would be close in the playoffs at the end of a game. They just completely fell apart and had no control of the ball. They were just hoisting prayer shots up. They were basically panicking with their season on the line and the Warriors were cool, calm and collected. Portland needed that Game 3 to have any chance in this series. They are sunk now. And with a good chance to win heading into the fourth and with the way they played (and something isn’t right with Lillard right now), we don’t see how they can pick themselves up and be competitive here in this elimination game. | |||||||
05-19-19 | Bucks +3 v. Raptors | Top | 112-118 | Loss | -115 | 22 h 23 m | Show |
The Bucks have now covered in six of the last seven meetings after covers in Games 1 and 2. We think that both conference finals series are kind of mismatches, but especially this one. The Bucks just seem like a team built for the postseason while the Raptors seem more like a regular season club. Just look at what happened with Toronto last season, getting swept by the Cavs when it looked like they had their best team ever and Cleveland struggled all through the regular season. But the Bucks haven’t really faced much adversity in these playoffs and they have made things look easy. We think there’s a good chance that this series could end in a sweep as well, and we think there is nice value here getting the plus points in a game that the Bucks could easily win outright. After their slow start in Game 1 they have looked like the clear superior team here, and we don’t think the change in venue will make a difference for Toronto. |
