04-16-21 | Pirates v. Brewers UNDER 8.5 | 6-1 | Win | 100 | 11 h 55 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Pirates/Brewers UNDER (8* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). I think this one sets up as a bit of a duel between JT Brubaker and Adrian Houser. Brubaker has by far been the Pirates best pitcher this year, as he has a tiny 1.80 ERA over 9.1 innings to go along with ten K's. The Brewers will be without slugger Christian Yellich still in this one. The Brewers hitting has been terrible, as they're 28th in the league with a collective .204 hitting average. Look for these two competent starting pitchers to dominate this game and for this total to fall under at the end of the night. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Milwaukee. | |||||||
04-16-21 | Pelicans -2 v. Wizards | 115-117 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 56 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Pelicans (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). New Orleans comes in off a 116-106 loss to the Knicks, but I think it'll bounce back here in this favorable spot. When it faced Washington on January 27th, it easily won 124-106. Zion Wiliamson is a matchup issue for the Wizards. Washington's off a 123-111 road win at Sacramento, but it's just 2-6 ATS in its last eight off a SU/ATS road victory in which it scored 120 or more points in. And with Detroit coming to town tomorrow night, this also sets up as a look-ahead for the home side. I'm laying the points, but expecting a blowout! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-16-21 | Flames v. Canadiens OVER 5.5 | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 52 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flames/Habs OVER (10* TOTAL BEST OF BEST). Calgary beat Montreal here two nights ago by a score of 4-1. Clearly, the Canadiens, who have now lost three of their last four, are going to be desperate here and can't afford to sit back and hope for the Flames to make the first mistake. Pushing the pace though opens you up on the backend, which these opportunistic Flames will be looking to take advantage of. The bottom line is, both teams need to string together wins if they have any hopes at all in making the playoffs. Also note that Montreal has seen the total go over in seven of its last ten home games in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent in which it was held to one or less goals in; the play is the OVER. T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Canadiens. | |||||||
04-15-21 | Celtics -6 v. Lakers | Top | 121-113 | Win | 100 | 13 h 12 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Celtics (10* TRADE-MARK). This is always a big rivalry game. The Celtics have won six of their last eight and four in a row and I think they'll keep that momentum rolling here. Most recently the beat the Blazers 116-115 on Tuesday, led by 32 points from Jayson Tatum. LA has won six of ten, but without its bonafide superstars in the line-up, I think it'll struggle here to contain this determined Boston side looking to end its road trip with a big nationally televised victory. The Lakers are just 1-4 ATS in their last five at home, so lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-15-21 | Blue Jackets v. Stars UNDER 5.5 | Top | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 12 h 39 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Columbus/Dallas UNDER (10* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). Columbus is out to get back into the winners circle after three straight losses. The Blue Jackets though struggle with offensive consistency, averaging just 2.50 GPG. Dallas has lost two straight, and it'll be doubling down defensively as well here in my estimation. The Stars only average 2.73 GPG, but they only concede 2.46. Expect a hard-fought, lower-scoring "goaltenders battle!" The play is the under! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Dallas. | |||||||
04-15-21 | Padres -1.5 v. Pirates | Top | 8-3 | Win | 100 | 4 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: San Diego (10* RUN-LINE MONEY-MAKER). The Padres have lost two in a row after losing by four here yesterday. Chris Paddack takes the hill for the visiting side and he's 0-1 with a 5.63 ERA so far this season. Paddack though still has an advantage over Mitch Keller here in my opinion (1-1, 4.50). It's still too early to draw any conclusions on either pitcher, but note that Pittsburgh is just 2-7 in its last nine after back-to-back victories. I like Paddack to finally get on track here and for the hungrier side to finally deliver; lay the 1.5 runs, expect a blowout! T.M. Prediction: 8-2 Padres. | |||||||
04-14-21 | Rockies v. Dodgers -1.5 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 0 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Dodgers -1.5 (8*). No upsets here. In fact, I look for the defending champs to build off their 7-0 win last night with an other decisive victory here. Dustin May gets the call for the home side and he's throwing with eight days rest. In his first start of the year he pitched six shutout innings with eight walks in a win over the A's. Jon Gray goes for Colorado and he went eight shutout innings in a win over the D-Backs in his last start. Colorado though is just 22-49 in its last 71 rad games. Look for LA to improve to 41-12 in its last 53 vs. RHP. Lay the 1.5 runs! T.M. Prediction: 8-1 LA. | |||||||
04-14-21 | Golden Knights v. Kings UNDER 5.5 | Top | 6-2 | Loss | -100 | 13 h 58 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Vegas/Kings UNDER (10* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). Vegas won here two nights ago by a score of 4-2. The Knights are the No. 1 defensive club in the league, allowing just 2.46 GPG. The Kings struggle offensively, averaging just 2.78 GPG. LA has seen the total go under in eight of its last 11 in trying to revenge a two goals or greater home loss to an opponent; expect this one to stay well under once the final horn sounds! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Vegas. | |||||||
04-14-21 | Mavs v. Grizzlies OVER 224.5 | Top | 114-113 | Win | 100 | 13 h 31 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Mavs/Grizzlies OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). The 29-24 Dallas Mavericks and the 27-25 Memphis Grizzlies get ready to battle here. These teams are neck and neck in the divisoin and each is hungry for a win here. Dallas has won six of its last nine, but it's lost two in a row and will be desperate to break this slide after getting routed by the 76ers last time out. It's a great overall situational polay, as the Grizz also play with revenge here. Two highly motivated sides pushing the pace from start to finish = OVER. T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORLTY. | |||||||
04-14-21 | Red Sox v. Twins -138 | 7-1 | Loss | -138 | 8 h 11 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Twins (8*). I'm playing on the Twins in the second game of their double-header. I believe the second game always benefits the home side. Jose Berrios gets the big nod as starting pitcher as well over Eduardo Rodriguez. Berrios is 2-0 and struck out eight in his last start. Rodriguez has a 5.40 ERA and allowed thre runs over five innings in his last outing. I think this line could/should be much larger; the play is Minnesota in Game 2! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Minnesota. | |||||||
04-14-21 | Angels -119 v. Royals | 1-6 | Loss | -119 | 5 h 1 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Angels (8*). This three game series is tied 1-1 after the Royals 3-2 win yesterday. LA is off to a great start at 7-3 overall though. Yesterday it left 20 men stranded on base. Don't expect that to happen again. Griffin Canning allowed four runs over six innings in a loss to th eJays in his last outing. I still like Canning here though over Brad Keller, who was shelled for four runs over three innings in a loss to the White Sox in his last start. I love the Angels in this matchup, and expect a decisive victory in the end. T.M. Prediction: 6-3 LA | |||||||
04-13-21 | Heat v. Suns -3 | Top | 86-106 | Win | 100 | 14 h 51 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Suns (10* TRADE-MARK). After winning six of their last seven, I believe the Heat are going to come up short here in this difficult road venue. Miami enters off a highly-satisfying 107-98 road win at Portland and everything points to a letdown here in my opinion with a tough game to look ahead to in Denver tomorrow night. Note that Phoenix has been trading against the spread wins/losses over its last ten games. Off a 126-120 outright win over the Rockets, unable to cover the large spread, expect this incredibly strong pattern to continue here. Lay the points, expect a blowout! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-13-21 | Mariners +130 v. Orioles | Top | 6-7 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 55 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Mariners (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). This game was postponed yesterday. Seattle enters having won two in a row though, most recently an 8-6 victory at Minnesota. The Orioles lost 14-9 to Boston in their most recent action. Seattle averages 4.12 RPG. Justus Sheffield is 0-1 with a 7.20 ERA for the Mariners, while Dean Kremer is 0-1 with a 9.00 ERA for the Orioles. These young starters are a "wash." Despite dropping Sheffield's first start of the year though, note that the M's are 4-1 in his last five starts. Baltimore on the other hand is now 0-4 in Kremer's last four starts. Great value on the "hotter" team; the play is the Mariners! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Mariners. | |||||||
04-13-21 | Flyers v. Capitals -150 | Top | 1-6 | Win | 100 | 11 h 48 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Capitals (10* MONEY-MAKER). Washington is coming off an 8-1 victory at Boston and I think it keeps the foot on the gas here in this favorably matchup. Philadelphia has lost three of four, including a 5-3 setback to the lowly Sabres last time out. The Flyers allow almost 4.00 GPG this year, and that's simply not going to cut it for this well-oiled machine in Washington. This line should/could be a lot larger; the play is the Capitals! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Washington | |||||||
04-12-21 | Rockets v. Suns UNDER 228 | Top | 120-126 | Loss | -105 | 13 h 57 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rockets/Suns UNDER (10* TOTAL OF WEEK). Houston comes in off a 125-109 loss to Golden State, while the Suns beat Washington 134-106. Phoenix has taken the first two games of this season series and while it's likely to win this one outright again as well, I think everything points to more of a defensive affair. The Rockets have some good players to work with for next season, but consistency from game-to-game is a major issue. Phoenix is out to catch Utah still, but note that the Suns have seen the total go under in seven of their last ten home games after scoring 130 or more points in a SU/ATS victory in their last outing. This number his high, the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-12-21 | Maple Leafs -130 v. Canadiens | Top | 2-4 | Loss | -130 | 10 h 54 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Toronto (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Toronto's rolling, as it's won six in a row, most recently beating the Senators 6-5. It's also 5-2-3 the last ten in this series. The Habs started out strong after their extended COVID issue, but they've now lost all that momentum, as they come in having lost three straight, most recently a poor 5-0 setback to the Jets. Toronto averages 3.37 GPG, while allowing 2.56. Montreal averages 3.00 GPG, while allowing 2.69. The Habs though are just 1-7 in their last eight in the fourth game in a 4-in-6 situation. Look for the high-powered Leafs to roll right over this floundering Habs side; lay the price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Toronto. | |||||||
04-12-21 | Blackhawks v. Blue Jackets +111 | 4-3 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 54 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Blue Jackets (8* MONEY-MAKER). Here's an immediate revenge game for the Blue Jackets, who lost here two nights ago by a score of 4-3. To say this is a "revenge" game would be a bit of an understatement I think as well, as Chicago has taken five of the seven in the season series thus far. Despite their win last time out, the Hawks have still allowed three or more goals in six of their last eight games. The Jackets have lost eight of ten, but note that they're 7-2 in their last nine home games in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent in which tye conceded four or more goals in. Great value on the revenge-minded home side! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Columbus. | |||||||
04-12-21 | Everton v. Brighton & Hove Albion OVER 2.25 | Top | 0-0 | Loss | -118 | 6 h 60 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Everton OVER (10* TOTAL OF WEEK). Both teams are coming off losses, which leads me to believe that each is going to "open things up" here and push the pace, ultimatley leading to a higher-scoring affair. Brighton is going to be pushed to keep pace with a talented Everton side, but note that 3 of the last 4 between these clubs have in fact gone over. Expect that trend to continue here! T.M. Prediction: 3-2. | |||||||
04-11-21 | Spurs v. Mavs -6 | Top | 119-117 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 21 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Mavericks (10* TRADE-MARK). These teams are moving in opposite directions and I expect those trends to carry here. The Spurs are floundering now, as they've lost five straight. That includes a soul-crushing 121-119 loss to the Nuggets on Friday. The Mavericks are moving the opposite way, as they've now moved into seventh in the competitive West standings. The Mavericks wer eonly 18-16 going into the All Star Break, but they come into this one as 29-22 after a 116-111 home win over the Bucks most recently. The Spurs are just 2-5 ATS in their last seven vs. teams with winning records, while Dallas is 7-2 ATS in its last nine at home; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-11-21 | Rangers v. Islanders UNDER 5.5 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 18 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rangers/Isles UNDER (10* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). The Rangers just won here 4-1 two nights ago, and I expect an even tighter contest this time around. These are two of the best defensive clubs in the league and everything points to another battle until the end (the Isles have seen the total go under in five of their last six in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent in which they lost by two or more goals in.) This number is high, the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 New York. | |||||||
04-11-21 | Padres -155 v. Rangers | Top | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 6 h 45 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Padres (10* MONEY-MAKER). Adrian Morejon (0-0, 4.50 ERA) gets the call for the Padres, and I think he'll have more than enough in the tank to get the better of the erratic Mike Foltynewicz (0-1, 9.00.) San Diego has won two of its last three, and despite having some injury issues to some sluggers, its still has the better and more potent hitting lineup. Texas has lost six in a row in this series. The Rangers hitting has been decent, but starting pitching is their issue. The Rangers are also just 1-5 in their last six interleague home games, while the Padres are 9-0 in their last nine interleague games vs. a right-handed starter. All things considered, I believe this line could/should in fact be much larger; the play is the Padres! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Padres. | |||||||
04-10-21 | Kings v. Jazz OVER 230.5 | Top | 112-128 | Win | 100 | 13 h 11 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Kings/Jazz OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). The Kings are rolling right now, having won seven of their last 13. That said, they'll be eager here to stop a five-game slide. Most recently it was a lacklustre 113-101 home loss to the lowly Pistons. Saramento will have to be sharp here to keep up with the Jazz, who have won ten of their last 12 games, most recently crushing the Blazers 122-103. Sacramento has to be the aggressor here to get back to its winning ways. This one doesn't at all feel like much defense will be played. This number is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-10-21 | Jets +116 v. Canadiens | Top | 5-0 | Win | 116 | 11 h 8 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Jets (10* TRADE-MARK). Neither Edmonton or Toronto will look forward to playing Winnipeg in the playoffs. The Jets are coming off a 4-2 win over the floundering Habs and I think the offer great value to repeat that performance on Saturday night. Montreal has lost three of its last four, while Winnipeg has won three of its last four. Note that Montreal is just 2-6 in its last eight in trying to revenge a two goals or greater home loss to an opponent. I think the better in form Jets are the correct call here! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Winnipeg. | |||||||
04-09-21 | Avalanche -1.5 v. Ducks | Top | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 13 h 29 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Avs PUCK LINE (10* ELITE OF ELITE). On some games, I like to break down every single angle possible. In other contests, I think keeping it simple is the best approach. And that's the case here. Instead of laying the massive -300 chalk on the Avs, I'm going to lay the 1.5 goals for the much more reasonable price. I expect Colorado to bounce back big here after its 8-3 loss at Minnesota last time out. Previous to that the Avs had won five straight. Colorado only allows 2.41 GPG this year, while the Ducks only average 2.28. Lay the 1.5 goals, expect a big time blowout! T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Colorado. | |||||||
04-09-21 | Spurs +7.5 v. Nuggets | Top | 119-121 | Win | 100 | 13 h 33 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Spurs (10* TRADE-MARK). The Spurs are still in the playoff hunt. San Antonio is looking to avenge a 106-96 loss here just two nights ago (note, the Spurs are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent in which they were held to 99 or less points in.) Denver's been great since the Aaron Gordon trade, but note that the Nuggets are just 2-6 ATS in their last eight after holding their previous opponent to 99 or less points in a SU/ATS victory. I expect things to be much more competitive this time around; so grab as many points as you can! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-09-21 | A's +1.5 v. Astros | Top | 6-2 | Win | 100 | 12 h 32 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: A's RUN LINE (10* MONEY-MAKER). Oakland's 1-7. Houston is 6-1. Clearly the A's are the hungrier dog in this fight, but in a contest which I see being competitive, maybe even decided in extra innins, I'm going to lay the price and grab the 1.5 runs and the A's on the RUN LINE. If Oakland loses by 1 run, we're still going to win our bet. Both Manaea and McCullers Jr. struggled in their repsective openers, making the starters a wash. Oakland' line-up has been drastically underperforming and I expect that trend to end here. T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Oakland. | |||||||
04-09-21 | Rangers v. Islanders -134 | 4-1 | Loss | -134 | 10 h 29 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Islanders (8* DESTROYER). After beating the Penguins 8-4, New York fell flat in a 5-2 setbck to the Pens last night. Can anyone say letdown spot here? The Isles played last night too, and won 3-2 in a shootout here at home to the Flyers. New York only allows 2.28 GPG and I have a hard time seeing these fatigued Rangers putting up much of a fight this evening. All things considered, this line could/should in fact be a lot larger! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Islanders. | |||||||
04-09-21 | Yankees v. Rays +1.5 | 5-10 | Win | 100 | 7 h 32 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Rays RUN LINE (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). Rich Hill is coming off a poor opening start for the Rays, while Corey Kluber is off a decent opener for the Yankees. Both teams come in off losses. The Yanks lost 4-3 at home to the Orioles, while the Rays fell 9-2 to Boston. Tampa's the hungry home dog here after four-straight losses. The Rays took seven of ten in this regular season series last year. Kluber didn't throw long enough to earn a victory in his opener and he's still untested at this point, with the sample size being much too small. I think Tampa can win this one outright for sure, but a this price, I'll lay it and grab the 1.5 runs! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Tampa. | |||||||
04-08-21 | Blazers +7 v. Jazz | Top | 103-122 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 17 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blazers (10* TRADE-MARK). The Blazers played two nights ago and lost 133-116 at the Clippers. Portland plays with revenge here after falling 120-100 to the Jazz on December 23rd. Utah is off a crushing 117-113 OT loss in Phoenix just last night and I simply can't see the Jazz mustering up energy to handle this tough Blazers team, out for revenge and off a loss. The outright is for sure possible, as this situation sets up fantastically for the visiting side. That said, let's grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-08-21 | A's v. Astros -144 | Top | 2-6 | Win | 100 | 11 h 16 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Astros (10* MONEY-MAKER). Houston rolled over the A's in four straight on the road to open the season. Christian Javier got roughed up in his opener vs. the A's, but Cole Irvin was destroyed by Houston. I expect a similar outcome here as well. The A's are coming off their first win of the year, a 4-3 OT win at home over the Dodgers and they absolutely looked primed for an immediate letdown on the road here after that emotional "monkey off the back." All things considered, I do indeed believe that this line could/should in fact be much larger; lay the price! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Houston. | |||||||
04-08-21 | Penguins +106 v. Rangers | Top | 5-2 | Win | 106 | 10 h 14 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Penguins (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Pittsburgh play with revenge here after falling 8-4 to the Rangers two nights ago. The Penguins and Rangers are evenly matched in every regard, but Pittsburgh has responded well in this spot for bettors, but going 7-3 in its last ten (70%!) in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent in which it conceded six or more goals in. Give me the revenge minded and more motivated visiting side to win decisively! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Pens. | |||||||
04-07-21 | Coyotes v. Kings -111 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 4 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Kings (10* ELITE OF THE ELITE). The Coyotes have been hot of late, winning five of their last six, including a 5-2 win over the Kings here two nights ago. LA has lost five of six, and if it doesn't start winning immediately, then it's season is obviously over. LA plays with revenge and it's offensive and defensive numbers are very comparable to the Coyotes. I think Arizona is primed for a letdown, and note that the Kings are 8-3 in their last 11 in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent in which they conceded five or more goals in; the play is LA! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 LA. | |||||||
04-07-21 | Golden Knights v. Blues +132 | 1-3 | Win | 132 | 12 h 5 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Blues (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). I think this is the spot that St. Louis steps up and finally breaks through with a victory after seven straight losses. One of those includes a 6-1 loss to these Knights here two nights ago. Clearly Las Vegas is the better team, but previous to that victory, the Knights had lost three in a row. I'll point out that St. Louis has in fact done well in this spot for bettors as well, going 7-2 in its last nine in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent in which it scored one or less goals in, while allowing five or more goals in. This is, great value on the hungry home side! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 St. Louis. | |||||||
04-07-21 | Diamondbacks v. Rockies OVER 11.5 | Top | 0-8 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 38 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rockies/DBacks OVER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). Madison Bumgarner is old. He's coming off a poor 2020 and he was bad in Spring. He is also coming off a terrible opening start againt the Padres, allowing six earned runs and thre walks over four innings (13.50 ERA). While he's had success against the Rockies in the past, clearly that was then, and this is now. Antonio Senzatela is coming off a crummy opening start, which is uncharacterisitc. Still, until he can prove that he's gotten things under control, I believe all signs point to these two volatile starters getting the hook early, which will in turn help in driving this total well over the number at the end of the night; the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 10-8 Colorado. | |||||||
04-07-21 | Giants v. Padres -147 | 3-2 | Loss | -147 | 7 h 10 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Padres (8* MONEY-MAKER). The Giants took the first game, but San Diego bounced back with a 3-1 win last night. I think the home side offers great value in this spot to earn a series victory. Clearly the book is still out on these line-ups, but this is a pitching matchup which favors the home side for sure: Blake Snell whiffed eight in his Padres debut, and he'll benefit in facing this "on again, off again" Giants offense. Kevin Gausman gave up just one over 6.2 innings in a win over the Mariners in his first start, but note that the Giants are just 2-7 in their last nine in trying to revenge a road loss vs. an opponent in which they scored one or less runs in. Great value on the home side! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Padres. | |||||||
04-06-21 | Blazers +5.5 v. Clippers | Top | 116-133 | Loss | -103 | 13 h 50 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blazers (10* TRADE-MARK). Both teams come in on fire. The Blazers have won five of their last six, most recently crushing the Thunder at home. CJ McCollum has added a new dimension since his return and the addition of Norman Powell has opened things up even more for Damian Lillard. The Clippers ahve been playign well also, but after their 104-86 home win over the Laekrs on Sunday, I expect a letdown here. Note that the Clippers are just 2-7 ATS in their last nine after holding their previous opponent to under 90 points in a SU/ATS victory. While the outright is possible, grab as many points as you can! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-06-21 | Bruins -126 v. Flyers | Top | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 10 h 46 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Boston (10* ELITE OF THE ELITE). These teams are evenly matched. Boston though plays with the immediate revenge factor after a 3-2 OT loss to these very Flyers in its last game. The Bruins average 2.7 GPG, while allowing 2.5. The Flyers average 3.00 GPG, while allowing 3.5. Note that Boston is 8-2 in its last ten in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent in which it scored two or less goals in. The play is Boston! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Bruins. | |||||||
04-06-21 | Cardinals v. Marlins -1.5 | 4-2 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 18 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Marlins (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). I like the Marlins to not only win today, but to win by a sizeable margin, making the RUN LINE option with a "plus-money" return the correct call here. John Gant is a veteran reliever that's been thrust into a starters role today. After dropping the series opener 4-1 on Monday, I look for Sandy Alcantara and this hungry home side to take full advantage (in his only appearance vs. the Cards he's posted a 1.80 ERA). Note that Miami is 7-2 in its last nine in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent in which it scored one or less runs in. Lay the 1.5 runs for the big plus-money return! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Miami. | |||||||
04-06-21 | Twins v. Tigers +1.5 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 4 h 49 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Tigers (+1.5) 8* MONEY-MAKER). The Tigers won their opening series, but they came out flat and fell 15-6 in yesterday's series opener with the Twins. Suffice it to say, I think the home side will put up a much better effort here this afternoon. Casey Mize was 0-3 with a 6.99 ERA last year, but the second-year pro is coming off a decent Spring: "He's made a lot of major league hitters look bad this spring," manager A.J. Hinch said. "There's going to be some growing pains, and if we expect him to be perfect, then we're setting him up for failure. So, the growth that needs to happen is going to have to happen at the big leagues." JA Happ gets the nod for the visitors. He's 3-2 with a 5.14 ERA in 12 career starts vs. the Tigers. This one is going to come down to the wire, so I'm grabbing the 1.5 runs! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Detroit. | |||||||
04-05-21 | Dodgers -152 v. A's | 10-3 | Win | 100 | 13 h 48 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Dodgers (6* BANKROLL BUILDER). The Dodgers are 3-1 and the A's are 0-4. LA has a clear pitching advantage with Dustin May on the mound, as he was 3-1 with a 2.57 ERA last year. May's fastball was topping 100 MPH in Spring. Frankie Montas was 3-5 wth a 5.60 ERA for the A's last year. The A's were just 4 fo 28 with runners in scoring position in their first series, and they also saw their bullpen allow 19 earned runs over 16 2/3's innings of work. Oakland will get its act together soon, but not tonight. Lay the price on the superior pitcher! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-05-21 | Maple Leafs v. Flames OVER 5.5 | Top | 5-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 16 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flames/Leafs OVER (10* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). Calgary's offense has been terrible this year. So too has its defense. The Leafs have been one of the best on both ends of the ice. So why is this particular contest going to go over the number? Calgary comes in desperate here, as it still has a shot at the playoffs. It's coming off back-to-back losses in which its totaled just three goals, so expect some adjustments here today for sure as they look to keep pace with the high-flying Leafs. Toronto has also seen the total go over the number in eight of its last 12 after playing to three or more straight unders. This number is low, the lay is the over! T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Toronto. | |||||||
04-05-21 | Baylor v. Gonzaga OVER 159 | Top | 86-70 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 28 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Baylor/Zags OVER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). This total is definitely low in my opinion. Defense is going to be an afterthought in the Championship Game, as each team tries its best to assert itself. The Bears are at their best when their shooting the three-ball, as they enter as tops in that department in the nation. Gonzaga is the most efficient two-ball shooting team and it's also the highest-scoring team in the nation. Each team is good defensively as well, but note that Gonzaga has seen the total go over in eight of its last ten after scoring 90 or more points in an OT victory in its last outing; this number is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-05-21 | Cavs v. Spurs UNDER 215.5 | Top | 125-101 | Loss | -113 | 10 h 19 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Spurs/Cavs UNDER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Both teams struggle scoring. Both teams are in need of a win. Both teams rely on their defense to win games. The Spurs are off back-to-back OT losses and not only will they be "gassed" here, but they've also seen the total go under in ten of their last 14 after back-to-back OT losses in which the totals both flew over the number. The Cavaliers only average 102.7 PPG, and they're better at home than on the road; everything points to this one falling well under the number! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-05-21 | Oilers +117 v. Canadiens | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 15 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oilers (10* GAME OF THE WEEK. Edmonton has won two of its last three, most recently a 3-2 victory over the Flames. Connor McDavid leads the NHL in scoring. Mike Smith is 13-3-1 with a 2.39 GAA. The Canadiens finally came back down to Earth after a big start following a lengthy lay off due to COVID. Last time out they got smashed 6-3 by the lowly Senators. Montreal is just 4-9 in its last 13 when playing on one days rest, while Edmonton is 6-1 in its last seven in ths same position. All signs point to the high-flying Oilers finding a way to deliver on Monday night! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Edmonton. | |||||||
04-04-21 | Maple Leafs v. Flames OVER 5.5 | Top | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 12 h 10 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flames/Leafs OVER (10* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). Calgary's offense has been terrible this year. So too has its defense. The Leafs have been one of the best on both ends of the ice. So why is this particular contest going to go over the number? Calgary comes in desperate here, as it still has a shot at the playoffs. It's coming off back-to-back losses in which its totaled just three goals, so expect some adjustments here today for sure as they look to keep pace with the high-flying Leafs. Toronto has also seen the total go over the number in eight of its last 12 after playing to three or more straight unders. This number is low, the lay is the over! T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Toronto. | |||||||
04-04-21 | White Sox v. Angels -124 | Top | 4-7 | Win | 100 | 12 h 40 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Angels (10* SITUATIONAL MONEY-MAKER). The Angels have won two of the first three in this series. The White Sox are picked by many to advance far into the playoffs, if not contend for a World Series title, but so far they have been overrated to this point. The Angels feature just as much hitting potential, if not even greater in the line-up. These teams are more even than what many are trying to lead us to beleive. I think Cease and Ohtani are a wash, but note that LA is 7-2 in its last nine home games after holding its previous opponent to three runs or less. Great value on the red hot home side in this one! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 LA. | |||||||
04-04-21 | Lakers v. Clippers UNDER 214.5 | Top | 86-104 | Win | 100 | 7 h 43 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Lakers/Clippers UNDER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). The Clippers don't need to turn this into a "track meet" to win. Both teams come in hot, but the defending champs are still playing without their two best players in LBJ and AD and because of all of these situational factors, I'm definitely expecting more of a defensive battle here. What more can I say about these two teams which hasn't been said a million times before. Each is good on both ends of the court, and when healthy, it wouldn't be difficult to write a convincing argument for either team to win the Championship this year. The Lakers though have seen the total go under the number in eight of their last 11 as double-digit road dogs and without their stars in the line-up here, I have hard time seeing them eclipsing this evening. When you add it all up, this number is indeed a tad high; the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-03-21 | Thunder v. Blazers UNDER 227.5 | Top | 85-133 | Win | 100 | 14 h 38 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blazers UNDER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). The last thing the slumping Thunder can do is turn this into a "track meet" with the high-flying Blazers and expect to hang with them and pull off the upset. OKC has lost four of its last five, most recently a huge 140-103 road loss in Phoenix just last night. With the Hunder doubling down on the defensive end, while also coming in "gassed," fro a situational stand point this one definitely sets up as more of a defensive affair. The Blazers have won seven of ten, but after a 127-109 loss at home to the Bucks, Portland will be looking to shore things up on the defensive end as well. All signs point to this one falling under once the final buzzer blares! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-03-21 | Twins +110 v. Brewers | 2-0 | Win | 110 | 11 h 37 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Twins (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). The Twins lost their opener thanks in part to a blown save and three runs given up in the ninth inning. I expect the visiting side to respond here though and avenge that loss. Minnesota has to be feeling confident with Jose Berrios heading to the hill, as he's 1-1 with a 2.08 ERA and 12 strikeouts in his career vs. Milwaukee. Corbin Burnes has had success against the Twins and he'll be on the mound for the Brewers, but note that Minnesota is 21-10 in its last 31 following an off day. Berrios has been one of the best pitchers in MLB the last three years and at this price, I think he's definitely the correct call in this particular matchup; the play is the Twins! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Minnesota. | |||||||
04-03-21 | Stars v. Hurricanes -153 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -153 | 11 h 34 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Hurricanes (10* MONEY-MAKER). Dallas has scored three or more goals in six of its last ten games, but it's also conceded three or more goals in seven of its last ten. Carolina continues to fly under the radar as one of the best teams in the league though. The Hurricanes enter on top form as well, having scored three or more goals in four of their last five games. Carolina has also conceded three goals or less in nine of its last ten. Expect the home side's superior defense and goaltending to win the day here and lay this price with confidence! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Carolina. | |||||||
04-03-21 | Houston v. Baylor UNDER 135 | Top | 59-78 | Loss | -108 | 80 h 44 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Houston/Baylor UNDER (10* TOTAL BEST OF BEST). Both teams are great on the defensive end. Baylor is one of the most efficient three-ball shooting teams in the nation, but the Bears are also No. 28 in adjusted defensive efficiency (they also force the third most turnovers in the country.) Houston is even stronger on the defensive end, as it ranks No. 1 in the country in defensive field goal percentage. Houston is also one of the slowest teams in the nation as far as pace is concerned, ranked No. 331 in average possession length. The stage is set for a highly competitive, but ultimately lower-scoring under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-03-21 | Indians -159 v. Tigers | Top | 2-5 | Loss | -159 | 5 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Indians (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). The Indians lost their opener here two nights ago 3-2. I think they'll bounce back though with Zach Plesac on the hill. Plesac was dominant last year, going 4-2 with a 2.28 ERA and 57 strikeouts. He was also 2-0 with a 0.51 ERA and 14 strikeouts against Detroit. The home side counters with the volatile Julio Teheran, who was 0-4 with a 10.05 ERA for the Angels last year. Teheran is off a decent Spring, but I still give Plesac the huge nod in this matchup. This line could/should in fact be a lot larger in my opinion; lay it! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Tribe. | |||||||
04-02-21 | Bucks v. Blazers +3.5 | Top | 127-109 | Loss | -113 | 13 h 3 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blazers (10* TRADE-MARK). The first thing that jumps out to me here, is that despite Milwaukee's 30-17 record, which is third best in the East and by far the best in the Central, with Indiana the next closest at 21-25, is that it has in fact definitely struggled in covering the number. It does come off a win and cover over the Lakers last time out, but now the Bucks face a red hot Portland team which plays with revenge after getting spanked by the Milwaukee 134-106 back on February 1st. But since the All Star break the Blazers have played a lot better, as they posted a really shaky first half. But Portland does definitely come in on top form as I mentioned, as it returns home after sweeping its four game Eastern road swing Chelsa, posting 125, 112, 122 and 124 points in the process. Returning home after a successful road trip can go one of two ways. Either a team comes back complacent and is super happy to be sleeping in their own beds and they fall flat in the first contest back, or they come in ultra-motivated and it's actually beneficial to them. And I think the latter is going to be the case here , as the big time blowout revenge factor makes the Blazers come in completely focused on trying to avenge that humbling setback. One final note here, the Bucks have a much more "WINNABLE" game tomorrow night in Sacramento, so they could definitely be caught "LOOKING AHEAD" here as well; grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY | |||||||
04-02-21 | White Sox v. Angels -114 | 12-8 | Loss | -114 | 12 h 30 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Angels (8*). The Angels held on for the 4-3 win last night and I think they offer great value to do it again on Friday. I would classify Chicago starter Dallas Keuchel and Angels' starter Andrew Heaney as a wash in this contest, meaning that other variables come into play here. And note, LA is 5-1 in its last six at home and an amazing 23-6 in its last 29 in this series at home, while Chicago is now 1-8 in its last nine on the road. I think the White Sox are still getting way too much respect from the bookmakers and general betting public; the play is LA! T.M. Prediction: 7-5 Angels. | |||||||
04-02-21 | White Sox v. Angels OVER 8.5 | 12-8 | Win | 100 | 12 h 30 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Angels/White Sox OVER (8*). The Angels held on for the 4-3 win last night and I think they offer great value to do it again on Friday. I would classify Chicago starter Dallas Keuchel and Angels' starter Andrew Heaney as a wash in this contest, meaning that other variables come into play here. I have a play on LA as part of my three-game report, but after yesterday's lower-scoring "duel," I'm also expecting a much higher-scoring game this time around as well. As note that Chicago has seen the total go over the number in eight of its last 11 road games in trying to revenge a road loss vs. an opponent in which it scored three or less runs in; this number is low, time to hammer the over! T.M. Prediction: 7-5 Angels. | |||||||
04-02-21 | Flames v. Oilers -139 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 59 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oilers (10* MONEY-MAKER). Edmonton is averaging 3.3 GPG. Its offense has been fantastic this year and I just can't see the putrid Flames' offense, which averages only 2.5 GPG, will be able to keep up here. We're now 2/3rd's of the way through the season, meaning teams are now locked in and ready to make their moves as the playoffs approach. Calgary is still in the hunt for the final spot, but note that it's just 1-5 in its last six on the road. Edmonton on the other hand is 6-0 its last six at home and 7-2 in its last nine home games following a road trip of seven or more days. Great value; lay it! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Edmonton. | |||||||
04-02-21 | Rays v. Marlins OVER 7.5 | 6-4 | Win | 100 | 10 h 2 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Rays/Marlins OVER (8*). I have nothing negative to say about either Rays' starter Ryan Yabrough or Marlins' starter Pablo Lopez. Each is coming off a decent campaign from last year and both had efficient spring showings. This pick isn't based on the starting pitchers. This number is just a little too low and after yesterday's low-scoring 1-0 win for Tampa, everything points to this one being a much higher-scoring contest on Friday night. Because note, the Marlins have seen the total go over the number in eight of their last 11 interleague home games when the total in the contest is set between 7.5 and 8. The Rays have seen the total go over the number in 12 of their last 17 when playing with no days rest and off a shutout victory the day before. This number is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 7-5 Rays. | |||||||
04-01-21 | 76ers -9 v. Cavs | Top | 114-94 | Win | 100 | 10 h 5 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Philly (10* TRADE-MARK). No upsets here, as I look for the 76ers to pull away down the stretch for the comfortable cover and victory. Philly averages 114.3 PPG, while conceding just 109.4. The Cavs have lost nine of their last 12. Cleveland averages only 102.9 PPG, while allowing 111.1. The Cavs have lost their last five games by an average of 12 points and their offense just can't be trusted here. This game means a lot to Philly as the end of the season looms. I'm laying the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-01-21 | Capitals v. Islanders -122 | Top | 4-8 | Win | 100 | 10 h 2 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Islanders (10* MONEY-MAKER). Two really good teams here, but I don't think that the home ice advantage can be overlooked as a very real deciding factor. New York is by far the "hungrier" team too, as it's lost two in a row. The Capitals looked poised for a letdown here in this difficult venue in my opinion, and note that they're just 2-6 in their last eight road games following a road loss in which they concded five or more goals in (just lost 5-2 in New York.) Look for the Isles to finally get back on track here in their own building; great value! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Islanders. | |||||||
04-01-21 | Rangers +1.5 v. Royals | 10-14 | Loss | -140 | 31 h 44 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Rangers +1.5 (8* MONEY-MAKER). The Rangers were only 22-38 last year. They struggled offensively, so to say they'll eager to get out to a better start in 2021 would be an understatement. Texas is going to have to put up some runs today as well with volatile right-hander Kyle Gibson on the mound, who posted a poor 5.35 ERA over 67.1 innings last year. Gibson though will be confident here as he's dominated the Royals in the past, going 9-5 with a 3.24 ERA over 135 innings faced. Brad Keller was sensation for the Royals last year, but the sample size was small. KC's offense was terrible last year too. I think the Rangers on the RUN LINE is the correct call here for sure! T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Texas. | |||||||
04-01-21 | Braves -103 v. Phillies | 2-3 | Loss | -103 | 30 h 44 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Braves (8* BLOWOUT). These starters are a "wash." I could easily write a convincing argument for either of these starters to win this game. Max Fried went undefeated last year. Aaron Nola is making his fourth straight Opening Day appearance for the Phillies. The difference though for me comes in Atlanta's strong bullpen and its hitting line-up. Philly is just 7-20 in its last 27 as an underdog, while ATL is 13-6 in its last 19 on the road. Philly's bullpen was dead last in the major last year with a 7.06 ERA. Great value on perhaps the best team in baseball on opening day; play the Braves! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 ATL. | |||||||
04-01-21 | Indians -1.5 v. Tigers | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -118 | 28 h 46 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Indians -1.5 (10* RUN-LINE GAME OF THE WEEK). The Indians got rid of a bunch of players in the off-season and added a couple new faces. Detroit comes in with a young pitching staff and hitting line-up. This is a major mismatch on the mound. Shane Bieber was 8-1 with a 1.63 ERA and 122 K's with 21 walks last year. Matt Boyd was terrible last season, going just 3-7 with a ballooned 6.71 ERA for the Tigers last year. Detroit is also a putrid 25-68 in its last 93 at home, while Cleveland is 37-14 in its last 51 as a road favorite. The Indians not only win here, they win BIG! T.M. Prediction: 7-2 Tribe. | |||||||
03-31-21 | Jazz v. Grizzlies UNDER 230 | 111-107 | Win | 100 | 12 h 52 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Jazz/Grizz UNDER (8* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Utah's on a six-game win streak. The Jazz are one of the best teams on both ends of the court, averaging 117 PPG, while only conceding 107.5. Rudy Gobert is going to be a matchup problem for Memphis today, so expect Utah to utilize its big man in its offense a little more than normal this evening. The Grizzlies margin of error is slim most nights, as they average 111.7 PPG, while allowing 111.4. Utah beat Memphis twice last week. These teams are very familiar with each other and in my opinion, all signs point to this one being a very physical war, but one which produces a solid under; and that's the play, the under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-31-21 | Blazers -6.5 v. Pistons | Top | 124-101 | Win | 100 | 11 h 52 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blazers (10* TRADE-MARK). Detroit comes in off a 129-105 win over the Raptors and I think it'll struggle to duplicate that effort here vs. the red hot Blazers, who look for their sixth-straight win on the road. Portland most recently defeated Toronto as well 122-117. Detroit's only won back-to-back games twice all year. The Pistons are also just 3-7-1 ATS in their last 11 games following a SU victory, while th the Blazers are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 after coming off a SU/ATS road victory in which they scored 120 or more points in. Look for Lillard, McCollum and Powell to overwhelm this poor Detroit defense; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-30-21 | 76ers v. Nuggets UNDER 221.5 | Top | 95-104 | Win | 100 | 12 h 26 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Nuggets/76ers UNDER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). Philadelphia's four-game win streak came to an end last time out, as the 76ers lost at the Clippers. Philly's been hot overall though and still enters having gone 4-1-1 ATS in its last six games. Denver enters having won two straight, most recently over the Hawks. Harris, Embiid and Simmons all sat that game out though, so we can expect a much more competitive affair here. I look for Denver to try and lock down Philly whenver possible though. Finally note that the under id 3-1 the last four meetings between these teams; this number is high, the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-30-21 | USC v. Gonzaga OVER 153 | Top | 66-85 | Loss | -103 | 10 h 30 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: USC/Gonzaga OVER (9* TOTAL BEST OF THE BEST). USC and Gonzaga have both covered all three of their games. The Trojans have been amazingly defensively of late, but now they face the Nation's No. 1 offense, which averages over 90 PPG. The Trojans are going to have their hands full with this up-tempo, efficient Bulldogs offense. USC put up 41 points in each half in its win over Oregon, and there's no reason not to think that it can't keep the foot on the gas here offensively either. I expect a faster-paced, higher-scoring shoot-out; this number is a tad low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-30-21 | Oilers +120 v. Canadiens | Top | 0-4 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 22 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oilers (10* SHOCKER). The Oilers are off a 3-2 OT win in Toronto last night. Edmonton still has a lot of ground to make up in the North division, so the whole fatigue-factor isn't an issue in my opinion. Who knows what we'll see out of Montreal though after a month off due to COVID related issues? One team just beat possibly the best team in hockey just last night, while the other hasn't played a meaningful hockey game in weeks. I'm banking on a blowout, the very definition of "great line value" right here! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Oilers. | |||||||
03-29-21 | Jets v. Flames -111 | Top | 5-1 | Loss | -111 | 13 h 27 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flames (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Calgary is coming off a 4-2 win here over Winnipeg two nights ago and I like it to keep the foot on the gas and find a way to deliver again. I think the Jets get caught looking ahead to their much more high-profile two-game series at home vs. the Leafs on Wednesday. Calgary is 7-2 in its last nine when coming off a two-goals or greater home victory. I'm banking on the hungrier home side posting a second-straight win here; great line value too! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Calgary. | |||||||
03-29-21 | Raptors -4.5 v. Pistons | 104-118 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 31 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Raptors (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). The Raptors have lost ten of their last 11. They're averaging 112.2 PPG, and conceding the same amount. Toronto still has a legitimate shot at the playoffs, so here's the perfect opponent to get back on track against, as the Pistons ente rhaving lost four in a row. Toronto may be on the end of a back-to-back, but expect this deep and well coached team to dig deep and improve upon their 7-2 ATS record in their last nine after three or more SU losses in a row; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-29-21 | Oregon State v. Houston UNDER 129 | Top | 61-67 | Win | 100 | 11 h 35 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Houston/Oregon State UNDER (10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK). Oregon State is on fire, especially on the defensive end. The Beavers enter off an impressive 65-58 defeat of Loyola Chicago in their last game. Houston clobbered Syracuse 62-46. The reason these two teams are where they are right now? Incredible defensive play, that never gives up and presses from start to finish. Don't expect anything to change here. This number is definitely much too high, the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-29-21 | Pacers v. Wizards +4.5 | Top | 124-132 | Win | 100 | 11 h 32 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Wizards (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). The Pacers are primed for a letdown here in my opinion after winning of their last five. Overall Indiana averages 113 PPG, while allowing 112.8. With a much tougher game at home vs. Miami on Wednesday, all signs point to Indiana having a letdown here after smashing Dallas on the road 109-94 in its last one. Here's a great spot for a hungry Washington team to not only pick up a cover, but also a solid victory. With Charlotte in town tomorrow night, the Wizards lay everything on the line here and catch the Pacers napping; grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-29-21 | Islanders -105 v. Penguins | 1-2 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 28 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Isles (8* MONEY-MAKER). The Isles play with immediate revenge here after falling 6-2 to the Pens here two nights ago. New York has to be feeling confident it can bounce back here as it's still only conceding 2.2 GPG. Pittsburgh's been great on both ends of the ice this year, but the Pens are still just 2-6 in their last eight following a home victory of two or more goals. The Isles on the other hand have responded well in this spot for bettors by going 7-2 in their last nine in trying to revenge a road loss vs. an opponent in which they allowed five or more goals in. I'm banking on the stingy Isles to respond on Monday night! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 New York. | |||||||
03-28-21 | Oregon +2.5 v. USC | Top | 68-82 | Loss | -109 | 106 h 33 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oregon (10* SWEET 16 GAME OF THE YEAR). Clearly these two teams are evenly matched. The Ducks have won 12 of 13, their only loss comig to these very Trojans in that span. Oregon recovered and went on to win the PAC 12 championship and it's coming off an impressive 95-80 upset win over Illinois last time out. The Ducks' offense is firing on all cylinders and they're playing better perimeter defense as well. Overall the Ducks are hitting 38.2 percent from 3-point land, which ranks 15th in the natoin. Look for the revenge factor to be the difference-maker in this one; however, let's grab the points for sure! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-28-21 | Devils v. Bruins -1.5 | Top | 1-0 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Bruins PUCK LINE (10* MONEY-MAKER). Boston has now won three of its last four after holding on for a 3-2 OT win over Buffalo yesterday afternoon. I like the Bruins to keep the foot on the gas here and to deliver a big victory at home over the lowly Devils. New Jersey still has an outside shot at the playoffs, but inconsistencies, especially in net, have those odds growing longer by the day (four different goaltenders this year for NJ.) Boston is finally starting to resemble last year's team and I look for it to build off yesterday's win. Lay the 1.5 goals for good plus-money return! T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Boston. | |||||||
03-28-21 | Florida State +3 v. Michigan | 58-76 | Loss | -113 | 101 h 43 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: FSU (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). Michigan is going to have its hands full here with this underrated FSU side in my opinion. FSU is coming off a commanding defensive peformance, beating Colorado 71-53. Michigan advanced by pulling away for an 86-78 victory over LSU. This Seminoles defense has improved dramatically over the last month or so and I think its depth and experience will see them through to the next round; grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-28-21 | Suns -6.5 v. Hornets | Top | 101-97 | Loss | -100 | 4 h 9 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Suns (10* TRADE-MAKR). The Suns are coming off a tight 104-100 win at Toronto. Charlotte enters having won three in a row, most recently a 110-105 victory over Miami. The Hornets have been overperforming without LaMelo Ball in the lineup and I expect regression finally here. The Hornets are in fact 0-5-1 ATS in their last six vs. a team with a winning percentage above .600, while the Suns are 8-1 ATS in their last nine as a road favorite; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-27-21 | Jets v. Flames -107 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 8 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flames (10* TRADE-MARK). The Flames are desperate to break a four-game slide. They also play with revenge here after falling 3-2 here to the Jets just last night. Note that the Flames are 7-2 in their last nine in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent. Winnipeg has been great, but note that it's 3-6 in its last nine after three or more straight vitories in a row. Great value on a super desperate home side! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Calgary. | |||||||
03-27-21 | Cubs v. Reds -129 | 6-3 | Loss | -129 | 12 h 4 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Reds (8* ELITE OF THE ELITE). I like Cincinnati ace Luis Castillo to get the better of Shelby Miller here. Miller has been strong so far in the Spring (1.00 ERA, 12 K's), but these sparkling numbers are unsustainable and I expect regression for sure. Castillo has been named the Opening Day starter as well after finishing with a 3.21 ERA and 1.23 WHIP over 70 innings last season. Lay it! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Cincinnati. | |||||||
03-27-21 | Rockets v. Wolves OVER 227 | Top | 129-107 | Win | 100 | 11 h 11 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rockets/Wolves OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Two teams with nothing to lose (except another game!) go head-to-head here on Saturday night and in my opinion, defense is going to go "out the window." Both teams are struggling on both ends of the court, but each will view this as a rare opportunity to finally earn an elusive victory. With each side pushing the pace from the opening tip, all signs point to this one flying well over before the final horn sounds! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-27-21 | Oral Roberts +11.5 v. Arkansas | Top | 70-72 | Win | 100 | 79 h 15 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oral Roberts (10* TRADE-MARK). Oral Roberts continues to get little respect. The Golden Eagles are coming off an impressive 81-78 win over Florida to advance. Arkansas on the other hand had to fight tooth and nail to get by Texas Tech 68-66. I think that the Razorback are gassed here. Oral Roberts has momentum and it also plays with revenge after an 87-76 loss to Arkansas back on December 20th. Oral Roberts' defense has been its weak point, but it's been significantly better over the last month and I expect this one to coe right down to the wire. While the outright is possible, in the end I'll recommend to grab as many points as you can! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-27-21 | Marlins v. Cardinals -140 | Top | 6-4 | Loss | -140 | 9 h 4 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Cardinals (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Jack Flaherty will look to shake off an up-and-down spring in his final home tune-up before the real thing. He allowed three earned runs to the Marlins last time out, while also striking out five. Sandy Alcantara is expect to start for Miami and he's been great in the Spring, but he'll be on a short leash here. Advantage St. Louis! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-27-21 | Villanova v. Baylor OVER 140.5 | 51-62 | Loss | -108 | 77 h 10 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Baylor/Villanova OVER (8* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Yes, both of these teams have good defenses, but each of their offenses is so much better. The Wildcats are averaging 75 PPG, while Baylor averages just over 83.0. The Bears are in the top 20 in field goal percentage and they are in fact the No. 1 team in the nation in three-point shooting (Villanova is in the Top 100 in both categories.) I'm expecting a fast-paced and ultimately high-scoring shootout here; the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-27-21 | Oregon State v. Loyola-Chicago UNDER 126 | 65-58 | Win | 100 | 75 h 31 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Oregon State/Loyola Chicago UNDER (8* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Loyola Chicago likes to use the clock while its on offense, as it plays a half-court style. In fact, the Ramblers play at a bottom 15 overall pace of play in the country. Now combine that with their No. 1 defensive efficiency rating, and there's no doubt inmy mind that we're going to see another tight, low-scoring game here vs. the Beavers. Oregon State has been phenomenal to get to this point and while its defense has been its weak point overall this season, it's been fantastic during its NCAA Tournament run, especially guarding the perimeter. Look for this contest to stay well under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-27-21 | Rangers v. Flyers +116 | 1-2 | Win | 116 | 4 h 8 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Flyers (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). The Rangers have beat the Flyers in two straight, outscoring them 17-3 in the process. Can anyone say revenge spot for Philly here? The Flyers have struggled defensively, but I expect the over-acheiving Rangers to finally have a letdown here as they get caught looking ahead to their game at the Capitals tomorrow night. Note that Philly is 7-2 in its last nine in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent of five or more goals. I'm laying the short price and finally expecting Phialadelphia to produce a great effort from start to finish! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Flyers. | |||||||
03-26-21 | Sharks v. Coyotes UNDER 5.5 | Top | 2-5 | Loss | -100 | 14 h 14 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: San Jose/Arizona UNDER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). San Jose is averaging only 2.7 GPG, while allowing 3.3. The Coyotes are averaging 2.4 GPG, while allowing 3.0. Two poor offenses, vs. two poor defenses. Which will win out today? I'm banking on these teams playing to a lower-scoring under for sure. Both teams love to "grind" out their wins and we can expect a very physical affair here from start to finish. In my opinion, these "style" of hockey games normally lead to lower-scoring affairs and everything points to that happening in this one for sure; the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Arizona. | |||||||
03-26-21 | Jets +116 v. Flames | 3-2 | Win | 116 | 14 h 14 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Jets (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). Calgary's obviously "desperate" after three straight losses in which it's combined to score jsut two goals in. But Winnipeg enters on top form and I simply can't see the Jets losing focus here in this favorable matchup. Also especially because this is the opener of a three-game series here. The Jets are 8-3 in their last 11 vs. a club with a losing record, while Calgary is just 1-4 in its last five overall. I think there's fantastic value here on the much better in form team! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Winnipeg. | |||||||
03-26-21 | Suns v. Raptors UNDER 224 | Top | 104-100 | Win | 100 | 12 h 47 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Raps/Suns UNDER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). Phoenix enters off a 112-111 loss at Orlando, while the Raptors smoked the Nuggets 135-111 in their last outing. Toronto is now only 2.5 games out of a playoff spot. The victory also snapped a nine-game losing streak. Phoenix's three-game win streak was snapped last time out. The Suns now sit three games back of the top spot in the West. The Raptors lost Norman Powell at the trade deadline, so their offense takes a hit in the short-term. Look for these two hungry teams to battle hard and expect this total to fall below once the final horn blares! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-25-21 | 76ers -4.5 v. Lakers | Top | 109-101 | Win | 100 | 15 h 44 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: 76ers (10* TRADE-MARK). I like the 76ers to keep the foot on the gas here as they come to LA having won nine of their last ten. The Lakers are still without a few key players, so this is a game that the 76ers will want to take advantage of for sure. Most recently Philly crushed the Warriors 108-98 on the road. The Lakers enter having lost three in a row and without LBJ or Davis, I can't see the backups competiting for long for the home side today. The 76ers are 6-1-1 ATS in their last eight vs. teams with winning records and I look for that strong trend to continue here! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-25-21 | Lightning v. Stars UNDER 5.5 | 3-4 | Loss | -131 | 13 h 10 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Lightning/Stars UNDER (8* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). These teams were in the Stanley Cup Final last year. This is the conclusion of a two-game set, the Bolts won the first one by a score of 2-1. Everything points to a similar final combined score here as well in my opinion. The Lightning have won five straight. Overall the Bolts concede just 2.2 GPG. Dallas only scores 2.7 GPG on average. The Stars' defense though has been excellent, allowing just 2.4 GPG this season. I think each will double-down on the defensive end again; this number is high! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Bolts. | |||||||
03-25-21 | Rangers v. Flyers +104 | Top | 8-3 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 41 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flyers (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). New York has been on fire, and it just beat Philadelphia 9-0 a week and a half ago. The Flyers have lost three straight. These teams overall records though are quite similar, as New YOrk is 14-13-4 with 32 points, while Philly is 15-12-4 with 34 points. Recent form would suggest that New York would be the correct call here, but I love this price on the more "desperate" team. The Flyers play with revenge after that humiliating loss to the Rangers and they're clearly hungry to break out of their current slide as well. As Bob Barker used to say: "The Price Is Right," as well; the play is Philly! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Flyers. | |||||||
03-24-21 | Hawks -2.5 v. Kings | 108-110 | Loss | -112 | 14 h 4 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Hawks (8* MONEY-MAKER). Atlanta's nine-game win streak came to an end last time out in a setback to the Clippers, but I think that Nate McMillan will have his new team prepared to bounce back here in this favorable road matchup. Sacramento enters off a highly satisfying 119-105 road win in Cleveland and an imminent letdown does in fact seem, well, imminent! The Kings are also a terrible 1-7 ATS in their last eight home games, while the Hawks are a perfect 4-0 ATS in their last four as a favorite. Lay the points, expect a monster blowout! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-24-21 | Clippers v. Spurs +6 | Top | 134-101 | Loss | -107 | 13 h 33 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Spurs (10* TRADE-MARK). The Clippers have won three of their last four after getting the better of the Hawks 119-110 in their most recent matchup at home. San Antonio has split its last six games, but after two straight losses, it's time to hit the panic button in San Antonio. LA though has been terrible in this spot for bettors, going just 1-5 ATS in its last six on the road and only 1-6 ATS in their last seven following a SU win. The Spurs on the other hand have excelled in this spot by going 19-9 ATS in their last 28 as an underdog. The outright is possible, but grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-24-21 | Flames -1.5 v. Senators | Top | 1-3 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 1 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flames PUCKLINE (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). I like the 15-15-3 Flames to avenge their 3-2 loss here two nights ago. The Senators still have the worst defense in the league. They're also a terrible 1-6 in their last seven after holding their previous opponent to two or less goals. Calgary comes in focussed today and delivers in this revenge spot, not only winning here, but winning big; lay the 1.5 goals for the big plus-money return! T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Flames. | |||||||
03-23-21 | Red Wings v. Predators -144 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 12 h 20 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Predators (8* MONEY-MAKER). I think the home side is worth the price of admission in this matchup. The Red Wings are last in their division, most recently coming off a 3-0 loss at home to Dallas. The Wings have now scored two goals or less in five of their last nine games. Detroit has also conceded three goals or more in seven of its last ten. Nashville is trending in the other direction, having won three of ite last four. The Predators are a perfect 4-0 in their last four vs. teams with a winning percentage below .400 and I expect that strong trend to continue here; lay the price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Nashville. | |||||||
03-23-21 | Panthers v. Blackhawks UNDER 6.5 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 19 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Panthers/Hawks UNDER (10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK). Chicago has last four straight. It's also lost all four games to Florida this year, but all on the road. Both teams have dynamic offenses, but if Chicago is going to break out of this slide, clearly it's going to have to concentrate heavily on its performance on the defensive end. The Panthers have been great on the road (10-3), dominating on both ends of the ice, but note that they've seen the total go under the number in seven of their last nine as a road favorite in the -120 to -165 range. This number is a tad high, the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Florida. | |||||||
03-23-21 | Nuggets v. Magic UNDER 217.5 | Top | 110-99 | Win | 100 | 11 h 22 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Nuggets/Magic UNDER (10* TOTAL OF WEEK). Denver comes in off a 113-108 loss at home to the Pelicans. Now they hit the road for a three-game swing, which sees them at Toronto tomorrow, followed by the re-match at New Orleans two nights after that. The Magic beat the Nets 121-113, before then falling 112-96 at Boston two nights later. It's interesting to note that Orlando has seen the total go under the number in eight of its last 11 after a SU/ATS road loss in which it scored 100 or less points in. I think Denver comes out flat and I look for the Magic to double down on the defensive end as they try to earn a rare victory; this number is high, the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-22-21 | Hawks v. Clippers -6 | Top | 110-119 | Win | 100 | 13 h 10 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: CLIPPERS (10* TRADE-MARK). After eight straight wins, including a road victory over the Lakers here in this building in their last, I expect the Hawks to stumble finally. The Clippers crushed the Hornets by 27 points here on Saturday and I look for them to carry that momentum over here. LA is 3-1 the last four in this series at home. Finally take note that LA is 7-1 ATS in its last eight after a SU/ATS victory of 25 or more points. Lay the points, expect a blowout! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-22-21 | Jets v. Canucks +114 | Top | 4-0 | Loss | -100 | 13 h 6 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Vancouver (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Vancouver is red hot, but it's coming off a 5-4 shootout loss to the Habs. The Canucks though are ust two spots out of a playoff position now and I expect them to bounce back here on home ice. The Jets are off a 4-2 road loss to Edmonton. The Jets are a great team, but I think they're in the wrong place at the wrong time here. So far Vancouver is just 2-3 in this season series, but it does play with revenge after a 4-2 loss in the latest. I look for the much improved home side to deliver in this favorable spot! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Canucks. | |||||||
03-22-21 | Maryland v. Alabama OVER 138 | 77-96 | Win | 100 | 12 h 44 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Bama/Maryland OVER (8*). Two red hot teams collide and I expect some offensive fireworks fo rsure. The Terrapins average 68.6 PPG and they're facing a defense which concedes 69.3 PPG. The Tide average 79.2 PPG and even though the Terps are giving up just 64.6 PPG, they're going to be forced to play at a very high pace here. This one has over written all over it! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-22-21 | LSU +5 v. Michigan | 78-86 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 9 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: LSU (8*). LSU is extremely balanced. Michigan has split its last four games and without star player Livers in the line-up,I have a hard time seeing the Wolverines covering this spread. LSU is 4-0 ATS in its last four neutral site games. LSU ranks fifth in adjusted offensive efficiency, while Michigan ranks seventh; I'm grabbing the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
