06-05-21 | Bruins v. Islanders +132 | Top | 1-4 | Win | 132 | 10 h 28 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Islanders (10* MONEY-MAKER). This has been a very even series. With a line like this, clearly the oddsmakers believe these teams are evenly matched. And they are for the most part on both ends of the ice. New York though is the play here for me, based upon the fact that it's a near-perfect 7-1 in its last eight in trying to avenge an OT home loss to an opponent. The Bruins are going to get caught flat-footed this time around, and I think we're absolutely getting a great price here as well; the play is New York! T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Isles. | |||||||
06-04-21 | Avalanche v. Golden Knights +104 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 104 | 13 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Vegas (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Colorado has taken advantage of a tired Golden Knights team to secure a 2-0 series lead, but it barely held on for the twin in Game 2. The Knights were tired after their seven game series win over the Wild. But they looked better in Game 2 and now back home, there's no reason not to think that (and especially at this price!), that Vegas can bounce back here on home ice. The Knights are 8-3 in their last 11 in trying to revenge an OT loss to an opponent. I think Vegas finds a way to deliver in this crucial spot! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
06-04-21 | Clippers -145 v. Mavs | Top | 104-97 | Win | 100 | 12 h 35 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Clippers MONEY LINE (10* TRADE-MARK). I think Kawhi Leonard and Paul George and company will play their best game so far in this series. On both ends of the court. I think it's very important to note that LA is 7-2 ATS in its last nine when trying to revenge a home loss against an opponent in which it was held to 100 points or less in. This has been a competitive, very even matchup so far and I look for that strong trend to continue here with LA pushing this one to a decisive Game 7. The play is LA on the money line! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
06-04-21 | Nationals +104 v. Phillies | Top | 2-1 | Win | 104 | 10 h 34 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Nationals (10* MONEY-MAKER). This is a great pitching matchup, featuring two red hot hurlers. Zack Wheeler is 4-2 with a 2.52 ERA and 0.93 WHIP for the Phillies, while Max Scherzer is 4-2 with a 2.34 ERA and 0.82 WHIP. These starters are evenly matched. I don't trust the Phillies' bullpen whatsoever though. I'll also point out that Washington is 7-2 in Scherzer's last nine road starts when playing as the underdog. I love Scherzer in this spot, the play is Washington! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Nationals. | |||||||
06-03-21 | Suns v. Lakers -2 | Top | 113-100 | Loss | -103 | 13 h 5 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Lakers (10* TRADE-MARK). Simply put, I expect the Lakers to lay the hammer down here in this "must win" game. This is LA's biggest game of the entire year and whether Anthony Davis plays or not, I think that King James will get plenty of support tonight from his cast of backups. Both Andre Drummond and Dennis Schroder had terrible games and I don't expect that to happen again. Phoenix has been consistent, but not dominant. I don't think they can put away the champs on their own floor. I'm laying the short points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
06-03-21 | Tigers v. White Sox -1.5 | Top | 1-4 | Win | 104 | 11 h 34 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: White Sox (10* RUN-LINE BEST OF THE BEST). After back-to-back losses, I like the White Sox to bounce back here in this favorable matchup. The Tigers have looked decent of late, but Case Mize is in over his head here facing White Sox' ace Lance Lynn. Lynn is 6-1 with a 1.37 ERA and he's been dominant at home. Chicago is also 28-18 in its last 36 when playign with a day off, while Detroit is just 39-98 in its last 137 vs. clubs with winning records; lay the 1.5 runs, expect a massive beatdown! T.M. Prediction: 7-2 Chicago. | |||||||
06-03-21 | Hurricanes +1.5 v. Lightning | Top | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 11 h 31 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Hurricanes (10* PUCK-LINE ELITE OF THE ELITE). I'm laying the price here for the extra 1.5 goals. I think this game will be the most competitive of them all. Tampa is "lucky" I think to have won both opening games. Carolina though is resilient and I expect it to throw its best shot at the defending champs. These team's numbers are almost identical on both ends of the ice, but Carolina is 7-2 in its last nine in trying to revenge back-to-back losses to an opponent. Lay the price, the play is the Canes on the puck line! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Carolina. | |||||||
06-02-21 | Grizzlies +9.5 v. Jazz | Top | 110-126 | Loss | -104 | 13 h 5 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Grizzlies (10* GAME OF THE MONTH). The Grizzlies road back-to-back "play in" victories to a 112-109 win in Game 1 of this series, but then Donovan Mitchell returned to the Jazz lineup and it's been all Utah since. The Jazz have won three straight, but note that the Grizzlies are 7-2 ATS in their last nine after three or more straight SU/ATS losses in a row. Memphis was better on the road for bettors this year, going 23-17 ATS away from friendly confines. Facing elimination, this young Grizzlies team may not battle back and win this game outright, but I do expect a competitive war until the final moments; grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
06-02-21 | Rangers v. Rockies OVER 10.5 | Top | 3-6 | Loss | -125 | 12 h 9 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rockies/Rangers OVER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). Colorado won 3-2 in extra innings here yesterday. After that low-scoring contest, I expect plenty of offensive fireowrks here on Wednesday. The bottom line is, I don't trust either Antonio Senzatela (1-5, 4.97 ERA) of the Rockies, or Jordan Lyles (2-4, 5.79) of the Rangers here as starting pitchers. Each has struggled with consistency from game-to-game this year and throwing at Coors is definitely not what the doctor ordered. Finally, note the Rangers have seen the total go over the number in seven of their last ten in trying to revenge an extra innings road loss to an opponent; this number is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 8-7 Rockies. | |||||||
06-02-21 | Canadiens v. Jets UNDER 5.5 | Top | 5-3 | Loss | -135 | 11 h 14 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Habs/Jets UNDER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Clearly, Montreal is going to be tired. Fatigued. After an emotional seven-game series victory over the Leafs in which they had to battle back from a 3-1 deficit, the only way Montreal is going to win this series is to do exactly what it did to Toronto, to Winnipeg in this game, and series. And that's play stifling defense and ride the fantastic play of goaltender Carey Price, who has been fantastic. I think the Jets afterburners get cooled here after a week off between series. Look for this one to stay well under! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Winnipeg. | |||||||
06-01-21 | Blazers v. Nuggets -1.5 | Top | 140-147 | Win | 100 | 12 h 25 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Nuggets (10* TRADE-MARK). I'm travelling today gentlemen, so I'm going to have to keep my analysis much more "succinct" than I usually do. This has been a back and forth series. Each team has won on the others court, but I expect Denver to rally here at home. Denver is a near-perfect 7-1 ATS in its last eight in trying to revenge a road loss against an opponent in which it was held to under 100 points in. Look for Nikola Jokic to have another big game here at home and lay the short points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
06-01-21 | Lightning v. Hurricanes -109 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -109 | 11 h 57 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Hurricanes (10* BEST OF BEST). I'm travelling today gentlemen, so I'm going to have to keep my analysis much more "succinct" than I usually do. With a line like this, clearly the oddsmakers think these teams are evenly matched. And they are for sure (on both ends of the ice.) Carolina though is 7-2 in its last nine in trying to revenge a home loss against an opponent in which it was held to one or less goals in. I think the Hurricanes had a minor letdown after their tough series win over the Preds, but I expect them to dig deep and deliver here in Game 2; the play is Carolina! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Carolina. | |||||||
06-01-21 | Marlins v. Blue Jays -151 | Top | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 10 h 27 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blue Jays (10* MONEY-MAKER). I'm travelling today gentlemen, so I'm going to have to keep my analysis much more "succinct" than I usually do. Robbie Ray is 2-2 with a 3.81 ERA for the Jays, while Sandy Alcantara is 2-4 with a 3.46 ERA for the Fish. Alcantara though has been terrible on the road this year with a ballooned 5.36 ERA. The play is Ray! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Jays. | |||||||
05-30-21 | Lightning +100 v. Hurricanes | Top | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 9 h 31 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Lightning (10* SLAP-SHOT). These teams are evenly matched. On both ends of the ice. The reason I like Tampa in Game 1 though, is that it's had a few extra days off between games. The Canes just finished a tough six-game series win over the Predators, with four of those games going to overtime. Tampa is 7-1 in its last eight when playing with three or more days rest; the Lightning strike first in Game 1! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Tampa. | |||||||
05-30-21 | Giants v. Dodgers UNDER 7.5 | Top | 5-4 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 34 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Giants/Dodgers UNDER (10* TOTAL ELITE OF THE ELITE). The last two games of this four-game series have flown over the number, but everything points to a classic "pitchers duel" between each team's bonafide "ace" on the mound to start. The visitors go with Kevin Gausman (5-0, 1.53 ERA), who went five shutout innings in a victory over the D-Backs in his last start, striking out nine in the process (allowed 11 runs over 64.2 innings.) Clayton Kershaw (7-3, 2.94) counters for the LA, and he gave up one run and struck out six over eight innings in a win over the Astros on Tuesday (owns a ridiculous 71/10 K/BB this year as well.) This one will be decided by these two starters; the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Dodgers. | |||||||
05-30-21 | Knicks +5 v. Hawks | Top | 96-113 | Loss | -107 | 5 h 30 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Knicks (10* TRADE-MARK). This has been a tight, back-and-forth series to begin with and I expect that trend to continue here. The Hawks have played better than most would have expected, but a predictable letdown is imminent in my opinion after their 105-94 Game 3 victory. The Knicks has somehow been slowed down by this poor Hawks' defense, and I definitely don't expect that weird trend to continue. New York is also 7-2 ATS in its last nine in trying to revenge a road loss against an opponent in which it was held to 95 points or less in; the play is New York! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-29-21 | Islanders v. Bruins OVER 5 | Top | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 11 h 34 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Isles/Bruins OVER (10* TOTAL ELITE OF THE ELITE). These are two tough defensive teams. New York is ranked No. 2 on the defensive side, while Boston is ranked 15th. Each only ranks in the middle of the pack on the defensive end as well. So why is this total going to go over the number, instead of under? I believe the winner of this series will be the one that can establish itself on the offensive end and I expect each team to open up the pace in an attempt to do that in Game 1. While everyone else "zigs," we're going to "zag." This number is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Boston. | |||||||
05-29-21 | Padres -143 v. Astros | Top | 11-8 | Win | 100 | 7 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Padres (10* BEST OF THE BEST). Sometimes I completely analyze a pick and break it wide open, looking at every tiny detail. Other times I keep it simple and it give it the "eye test." That's the case here today, as I think Padres' ace Yu Darvish (5-1, 1.75 ERA) is definitely worth the price of admission here vs. Jake Odorizzi (0-2, 10.13), who returns after a long stay on the injured list. Odorizzi will likely only see a few innings, before making way for a battered bullpen; I'm laying the price on the red hot Padres! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Padres. | |||||||
05-29-21 | Nuggets v. Blazers -4.5 | Top | 95-115 | Win | 100 | 7 h 33 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blazers (10* TRADE-MARK). Portland took Game 1, but Denver has taken the last two games. The Blazers now look to respond, and I believe they'll pull away down the stretch for the comfortable win and cover. Portland has the superior offensive numbers, while Denver has the better defensive numbers. I believe CJ McCollum and Damian Lillard will take over this game for the home side, and stretch this Denver defense, which has granted played well without Jamal Murray in the lineup; lay the points, expect a blowout! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-28-21 | Giants v. Dodgers -1.5 | Top | 8-5 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 24 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Dodgers -1.5 (10* RUN-LINE BANKROLL BUILDER). Anthony DeSclafani (4-2, 3.54 ERA), was rocked hard by the Dodgers last Sunday, allowing ten runs off nine hits with three walks over 2.2 innings in a loss. I think he'll do better this time around, but only a little. Walker Buehler (3-0, 2.78) is the correct call here in my opinion, as he has a tiny 0.78 WHIP so far this year and he gave up one run over seven innings in a victory over San Francisco last Saturday. Lay the 1.5 runs, expect a blowout! T.M. Prediction: 7-1 LA. | |||||||
05-28-21 | Wild v. Golden Knights UNDER 5 | Top | 2-6 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 22 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Vegas/Wild UNDER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). Minnesota has clawed its way back into this series, winning two in a row and it'll have to keep up the intensity here, especially on the defensive side if it wants to complete the upset comeback. Minnesota was blanked last time out in Game 6 by a score of 3-0. The Knights have the best defense in the league, and I expect them to fall back on their strength here in Game 7. Expect a hard-hitting, grind-it-out affair, where every puck is contested and back-checking throughout; the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Vegas. | |||||||
05-28-21 | Knicks v. Hawks OVER 211 | Top | 94-105 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 20 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Knicks/Hawks OVER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). Yes, the first two games of this series have gone under, but everything points to more of a shootout in Game 3. The Knicks looked bad again over the first half of Game 2, but Julius Randle finally showed up and New York finally was able to pull away in the second half for a convincing victory. The Knicks have seen the total go over in eight of their last 11 after back-to-back home unders as well. The last thing the Hawks can do is allow New YOrk to control the pace of this one, so expect an all out attack from the opening tip, until the final horn from the home side. Wheh you add it all up, everything points to the over as the correct call in Game 3! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-27-21 | Nuggets v. Blazers OVER 227.5 | Top | 120-115 | Win | 100 | 13 h 50 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blazers/Nuggets OVER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). The first two games of this series have flown over the number and I absolutely expect this trend to continue here. Portland struggled to contain Nikola Jokic in Game 2. The Blazers are back on their home floor though and they'll now look to stretch this Denver defense by jacking up plenty of three-balls. Portland isn't going to win this series with its tough defensive play, instead getting out on transtion on offense is the key to victory for the home side. With each side pushing the tempo, look for this one to fly over before the final buzzer sounds! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-27-21 | Angels +142 v. A's | Top | 0-5 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 55 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Angels (10* MONEY-MAKER). Both teams enter off victories. I think the visiting side offers great value to pull off the minor upset in this one. The Angels go with ace Shohei Ohtani, who is 1-0 with a 2.73 ERA, and I'm giving him the big nod here over Chriss Bassitt (4-2, 3.69). Ohtani is on a completely different level right now and I expect him to outduel his counterpart. As stated off the top, great value on the visitors here! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Angels. | |||||||
05-26-21 | Hawks v. Knicks -128 | Top | 92-101 | Win | 100 | 36 h 32 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Knicks MONEY LINE (10* GAME OF MONTH). I love the Knicks to bounce back here after their 107-105 loss to Atlanta in Game 1. The Hawks are just too young and inexperienced to lay the hammer down here and take both games. Just look at the Suns last night at home, beating the Lakers easily in Game 1, but then falling flat in Game 2. Knicks' leading scorer Julius Randle had likely the worst game of his career as well, and New York still almost won. Look for the veterans of the Knicks to lead them to a convincing SU/ATS victory here; play on the money line! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-26-21 | Wizards +8.5 v. 76ers | Top | 95-120 | Loss | -109 | 10 h 24 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Wizards (10* TRADE-MARK). Philadelphia won 125-118 in Game 1, but it was unable to cover the large spread. I think that's going to be the case again here. I'm not calling for an outright victory, but I do absolutely expect the Wizards to throw their "best shot" at the 76ers here so as to avoid the dreaded 0-2 hole. Note as well that the Wiz are 7-2 ATS in their last nine in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent in which they allowed 125 or more points in. No outright as I stated above, but definitely closer than what this spread would suggest; grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-25-21 | Cardinals +125 v. White Sox | Top | 3-8 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 6 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Cardinals (10* TRADE-MARK). I like the Cardinals to bounce back from last night's 5-1 loss here in Chicago. St. Louis has lost three of four now, including two in a row. The White Sox had been in terrible form leading up to yesterday's victory, but their inconsistencies at the plate has still seen them lose six of their last ten. Lucas Giolito (3-4, 4.35 ERA) has not been sharp for Chicago this year. Jack Flaherty (8-0, 2.53), has been super sharp for the Cardinals. Look for St. Louis to get the job done here in this favorable starting pitching matchup! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Cards. | |||||||
05-24-21 | Blazers v. Nuggets OVER 227 | Top | 109-128 | Win | 100 | 13 h 13 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Nuggets/Blazers OVER (10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK). Was I surprised by Portland's big 123-109 win over the Nuggets? Not entirely, especially with a spread which was almost a "pick em." I was a little surprised though at the Nuggets offensive inconsistency, which I expect to get corrected here. Denver was eighth in the regular season in scoring with 115.1 PPG, while Portland was fifth, averaging 116.1. Don't expect Portland's inconsistent defense to show up like that two games in a row. The Playoffs are all about adjustments from game-to-game. Denver will be out to push the pace and take command of this game before heading back to Portland as well. When you add it all up, this one has over written all over it! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-24-21 | Cardinals v. White Sox UNDER 8.5 | Top | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 11 h 2 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Cards/White Sox UNDER (10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK). The White Sox are struggling at the plate right now. They enter off a three-game series loss at New York. Thankfully they're sending their ace to the mound in Lance Lynn (4-1, 1.55 ERA), who has a sharp 0.98 WHIP. The Cardinals are 26-20 and overall. Kwang Hyun Kim (1-1, 2.73), looks to bounce back from an off outing vs. San Diego and he's been sharp in all "night" games by going 1-0 with a 1.80 ERA. Look for these two hungry/capable starters to battle deep; the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 ChiSox. | |||||||
05-24-21 | Islanders v. Penguins -133 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -133 | 10 h 2 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Penguins (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). This series is all tied up at 2-2, but after dropping the last one by a score of 4-1, I think the home side will bounce back here and find a way to deliver. The Islanders have slightly better defensive numbers than the Penguins, but not by much. Pittsburgh's offensive numbers though are vastly superior. Pittsburgh is also 5-0 in its last five following a loss of 3 or more goals, while the Islanders are just 2-5 in their last seven as a road dog. Expect "home cooking" to be the difference-maker here! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Pittsburgh. | |||||||
05-23-21 | Grizzlies +9 v. Jazz | Top | 112-109 | Win | 100 | 12 h 30 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Grizzlies (10* TRADE-MARK). Outright win? Very possible! The Grizzlies come in on top form, as they won both their "play in" contests, after losing to Golden State in their regular-season finale. Memphis is a deep team, which I think will help it here in Game 1. Utah earned the No. 1 seed after going 52-20 in the regular season. The big question though is, will rest lead to rust? Note that the Grizzlies are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 as an underdog, while the Jazz are just 3-7 ATS in their last ten at home and only 1-5 ATS in their last six playoff games as a favorite. While I do think the outright upset is possible, in the end let's grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-23-21 | Oilers -127 v. Jets | Top | 4-5 | Loss | -127 | 11 h 31 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oilers (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Enough is enough for this Edmonton offense! Wow, the Jets have sure looked great over the first two games of this series. Fantastic goaltending and defensive play have Winnipeg in the proverbial "drivers seat" with a commanding 2-0 series lead and three straight at home. It's now or never for the visitors. Do or die. A 3-0 hole will just be too big of one to climb out of. Very similar offensive and defensive numbers for each side, but note that Edmonton is 7-2 in its last nine in trying to revenge two straight losses against an opponent. All things considered, I believe this to be the very definition of great line value; the play is the Oilers! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Edmonton. | |||||||
05-23-21 | Dodgers -126 v. Giants | Top | 11-5 | Win | 100 | 7 h 58 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Dodgers (10* TRADE-MARK). After a shaky stretch, the Dodgers have won eight of their last ten, including the first two in this series. The Giants had been rolling along until this series, and I think they'll struggle again here in the finale. We have a really good starting pitching matchup here between Anthony DeSclafani (4-1, 2.03 ERA) of San Francisco and Julio Urias (6-1, 3.04) of the Dodgers. Let's call these starters "even." LA is 7-2 in its last nine after back-to-back road victories and I expect the champs to keep that trend rolling strong here. All things considered, I believe this to be the very defintion of great line value; the play is the Dodgers! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Dodgers. | |||||||
05-22-21 | Rays v. Blue Jays -115 | Top | 3-1 | Loss | -115 | 10 h 22 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blue Jays (10* ELITE OF THE ELITE). I love the Jays here. They're coming off a 9-7 defeat here yesterday to Tampa, and they've now lost three in a row. They won't be lacking for motivation facing Rays' rookie starter Shane McClanahan (1-0, 4.67 ERA), who earned his first win over three appearances so far last time out, despite allowing four runs over five innings in a 12-5 victory over the Mets. New York is a terrible hitting team, so giving up four runs in a victory to it has to be taken with a grain of salt. Duplicating that performance on the road against the hard-hitting Jays is another thing entirely though. Robbie Ray (2-1, 3.79), allowed four runs over seven innings with nine K's in a victory over the Phillies in his last outing. What's up with this line? Unload with confidence, the play is Toronto! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-22-21 | Mavs v. Clippers OVER 221.5 | Top | 113-103 | Loss | -103 | 79 h 11 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Mavs/Clippers OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Its payback time for the Mavericks, who lost 4-2 to the Clippers in the first round last year. It was an even series until Kristaps Porzingis got injured. Dallas won two of three in the regular season series. The Mavericks excelled on the offensive end this year, but struggled defensively. The Clippers are hoping that Paul George can return to form here after a shaky playoff performance last year. The Clippers are a defensive oriented team, filled with veterans, but with the visitors pushing the pace, look for this one to fly well over befor the final horn sounds; the play is indeed the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-22-21 | Penguins v. Islanders -110 | Top | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 6 h 54 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Islanders (10* TRADE-MARK). Pittsburgh averages more goals per game, but the Islanders defensive numbers are better. The playoffs are all about making adjustments, and after coming up short in Game 3, that's exactly what I expect from the revenge-minded home side here. The Iles are 7-2 in their last nine in trying to revenge a home loss against an opponent in which they allowed five or more goals in as well. I look for New York to bounce-back here and to avoid going down 1-3. All things considered, a great price! T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Islanders. | |||||||
05-21-21 | Astros v. Rangers +1.5 | Top | 5-7 | Win | 100 | 11 h 20 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rangers (+1.5) 10* MONEY-MAKER. In a game which I see being decided late or in extra frames, I'm going to lay the reasonable price for the extra 1.5 runs of insurance. Tyler Ivey (0-0, 0.00 ERA) makes his big league debut here for the Asros. Over 6.1 innings in two minor league starts, he's conceded five earned runs. He'll go against Rangers' ace Kyle Gibson (3-0, 2.32), who comes in off another strong outing, allowing two runs off four hits with three K's in an unfortunate no-decision vs. these very Astros last Wednesday. Over 54.1 innings of work, he has a sharp 44/17 K/BB. As stated off the top, I think the outright is possible, but I'll lay the price for the extra 1.5 runs! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Texas. | |||||||
05-21-21 | Hurricanes v. Predators OVER 5 | Top | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 10 h 22 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Predators/Canes OVER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). Carolina won the first game by a score of 5-2 and the second one in this opening series by a score of 3-0. With their backs against the wall, The Predators return home and look to push the pace from start to finish as they try their best to claw their way back into this series. It's very intesting to note that Nashville has seen the total go over in eight of its last 11 in trying to revenge a road shutout loss vs. an opponent as well. Carolina is one of the best on both ends of the ice, but it hasn't had any issues scoring against Nashville. Don't expect that trend to change here either. This number is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 6-5 Carolina. | |||||||
05-20-21 | Pacers v. Wizards OVER 237 | Top | 115-142 | Win | 100 | 12 h 41 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Wizards/Pacers OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Indiana managed a massive 144-117 rout of the Hornets in its first play-in game, and if it has any shot at taking this one in the Nation's capital, it'll have to duplicate that performance. The Wizards will be extra motivated here as well after falling 118-100 to Boston. The Wizards are one of the highest-scoring teams in the league though, and there's no reason not to think it won't be able to bounce-back here against a team it won all three-games against in the regular season, scoring 132, 154 and 133 in the process. Also note that the Wiz have seen the total go over in eight of their last 12 after getting held to 100 points or less in a SU/ATS loss in their previous outing. All signs point to a wide-open shootout; the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-20-21 | Canadiens +1.5 v. Maple Leafs | Top | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 34 h 7 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canadiens PUCK LINE (10* TRADE-MARK). Montreal got out to a great start this year, then it got hit by COVID. It was a constant struggle after that, but the Canadiens did enough to earn a spot in the playoffs and they actually enter healthier right now than they've been in a while. The Canadiens have strong goaltending and defense. The Leafs won the North conference regular season title, and they're one of the best on both ends of the ice. Montreal though is 7-2 in its last nine when playing with two or more days of rest. Edmonton got surprised last night, and everything points to the Leafs coming out flat here as well. Great value on the Canadiens puck line! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Montreal. | |||||||
05-20-21 | Astros v. A's +106 | Top | 8-4 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 16 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: A's (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). The A's two-game win streak was snapped in yesterday's 8-1 setback. Oakland won the series opener 6-5. I think Cole Irvin and the home side offer great value to bounce-back here though. Irvin (3-4, 3.02 ERA), has a fantastic 39-to-8 strikeout-to-walk ratio. He most recently allowed one run over 6.2 innings in an unfortunate no-decision to the Twins. Luis Garcia (1-3, 3.34), comes in off a decent outing vs. the lowly Rangers, going five scoreless, but note that he's yet to complete six innings in a start this year. Also note that Oakland is a sharp 7-2 in its last nine after a home loss in which it was held to one or less runs in; the play is Oakland! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Oakland. | |||||||
05-19-21 | Nationals -146 v. Cubs | Top | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 10 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Nationals (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). The Nats won't be lacking for motivation here, as they're last in the competitive NL East. Max Scherzer is 3-2 with a 2.10 ERA for Washington and he's been a bright spot whenver he's been on the mound. Note that he owns a ridiculous 30/2 K/BB, most recently going five scoreless vs. the D-Backs. Jake Arrieta is 4-2 with a 4.10 ERA. He has a less impressive 29/13 K/BB over 37.1 innings. I think that Scherzer isn't getting nearly enough respect from the oddsmakers; lay the price! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Nationals. | |||||||
05-19-21 | Spurs v. Grizzlies -3.5 | Top | 96-100 | Win | 100 | 35 h 32 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Grizzlies (10* TRADE-MARK). San Antonio allowed 110.7 PPG through the regular season, but it completely fell apart over the final few weeks. Over the last four games of the regular season the Spurs allowed 128, 102, 140 and 123 points. Overall the Spurs average 111.1 PPG. The Grizzlies allowed 110.9 PPG this year, but over theri final five games, all victories, they conceded 113, 106, 110, 104, 110 and 99. The Grizz averaged 113.3 PPG, and they're 7-2 ATS in their last nine home games when playing with two or more days of rest; lay the short points, expect a major blowout! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-18-21 | Islanders v. Penguins -132 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 11 h 41 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Penguins (10* FIRST ROUND GAME OF YEAR). Game 1 was competitive, but I believe that Pittsburgh will dig deep here and deliver in this revenge spot. The Peguins were 22-4-1 at home, and the Isles were just 12-13-3-1 on the road. Evenly matched offensive and defensive numbers, but Pittsburgh's are still better on both end of the ice. The Pens are also 7-2 in their last nine in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent; lay the price, expect a rout! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Pens. | |||||||
05-18-21 | Rays -142 v. Orioles | Top | 13-6 | Win | 100 | 10 h 9 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rays (10* MONEY-MAKER). I absolutely love the pitching matchup here. Matt Harvery (3-3, 4.81 ERA) is coming off back-to-back poor outings, most recently getting rocked for seven runs by the mets on Wednesday over just four innings of work. Further regression is imminent in my opinion, as his early sparkling numbers were just a mirage. Luis Patino (1-1, 1.54) was handed a loss vs. the Yanks last time out despite allowing just one earned run over four innings. The Orioles are struggling at the plate as well, which doesn't bode well facing this red hot Tampa starter; great value, the play is Tampa! T.M. Prediction: 5-3 Tampa. | |||||||
05-17-21 | White Sox v. Twins UNDER 9 | Top | 16-4 | Loss | -103 | 13 h 51 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: White Sox/Twins UNDER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). I think these starting pitchers are in line for a classic duel on Monday night. Chicago goes with Dallas Keuchel (2-1, 4.53 ERA), who comes in off his worst start of the season, allowing six runs off eight hits over 5.2 innings vs. these very Twins, but still managed to get the victory. Previous to that he delivered seven scoreless. The home side counters with JA Happ (2-1, 4.26), who will also be out to atone for last week's poor outing vs. the White Sox, as he threw opposite Keuchel, conceding nine runs off nine hits over 3.1 innings. Heading into that contest Happ had a 1.91 ERA and 0.85 WHIP over 28.1 innings. Expect these hungry and capable starters to get back on track; the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 White Sox. | |||||||
05-17-21 | Bruins -129 v. Capitals | Top | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 13 h 49 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Boston Bruins (10* GAME OF WEEK). Game 1 could have gone either way, but Washington managed to pull off the victory in overtime. With their backs against the wall, I think the Bruins will bounce back here and find a way to get the job done. These teams offensive and defensive numbers are completely similar, and clearly they're evenly matched, as evidenced by Game 1. As evidenced by this Game 2 line. So why is Boston going to win Game 2? I do expect a very tight game again, but the difference-maker for me is the fact that the Bruins are 7-2 in their last nine in trying to revenge an OT road loss vs. an opponent. Great value on the revenge-minded visiting side! T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Boston. | |||||||
05-16-21 | Mavs -7 v. Wolves | Top | 121-136 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 50 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Mavericks (10* TRADE-MARK). I don't expect the Mavericks to take the foot off the gas here. Dallas has won two in a row and six of seven. Dallas is now a season-high 13 games over the .500 mark. The T-Wolves are going through the motions at this point, as they won't even reach the 25 win plateau. They're coming off back-to-back losses, most recently a 124-108 setback to the Celtics. “It doesn't look like they're locked in to finish the season the way we wanted to," Timberwolves coach Chris Finch said. Despite already being locked into their seed, I look for Dallas' role players to deliver in this spot; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-16-21 | Rennes v. AS Monaco -125 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 6 h 39 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: AS Monaco (10* GAME OF THE MONTH). Monaco has been impressive this year, and holds the upper hand here vs. Rennes. Rennes is going through a poor campaign, currently sitting in seventh in the standings. The bottom line is though, Monaco is in a dog fight with Lyon for a top-three finish and it simply can't afford to drop any points here (won 1-0 over Reims in league play last time out.) Considering the gravity of this contest for Monaco, I foresee no letdowns here. In fact, I think that Monaco is undervalued here for sure; lay it and expect a decisive win in regulation! T.M. Prediction: 2-0 AS Monaco. | |||||||
05-16-21 | A's +107 v. Twins | Top | 7-6 | Win | 107 | 5 h 47 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: A's (10* TRADE-MARK). The A's let a late lead slip away to the Twins last night, but I think they'll bounce back today vs. this inconsistent Minnesota side. I absolutely love Chris Bassitt (3-2, 3.54 ERA) over Kenta Maeda (2-2, 5.08) as well. Maeda gae up three runs over five innings vs. the White Sox on Tuesday and he's been consistently inconsistent all season. Bassitt on the other hand just keeps getting better with each start. He has a sharp 53 to 12 strikeout to walk ratio over 48.1 innings and he comes in off a dominant win over the Red Sox, striking out ten and givin gup two runs over seven innings. In my opinion, this is the very definition of great line value! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Oakland. | |||||||
05-16-21 | Islanders v. Penguins OVER 5 | Top | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 3 h 3 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Isles/Penguins OVER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). These two teams are very evenly matched. Pittsburgh was one of the best home teams in the league, and it got the job done by crushing teams with a relentless offensive attack, which saw it post 3.4 GPG. That offense will be going up against the league's top defense in the Islanders, which allowd just 2.00 GPG. However note, the Isles have seen the total go over in eigth of their last 12 road games as an underdog in the +105 to +135 range. If this Game 1 was being played in New York, I'd like the under, but because it's in Pittsburgh, the value has swung the other way; the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Pens. | |||||||
05-15-21 | Tony Ferguson +125 v. Beneil Dariush | Top | 0-1 | Loss | -100 | 227 h 36 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Tony Ferguson (10* FIGHT OF MONTH). Tony Ferguson was on a 12 fight win streak until he got annihilated by Justin Gaethje in his last fight. He then got smashed by Charles Oliveira last December. This is a "make it or break it" fight now for Ferguson, who can't afford to keep fighting at this level with three straight losses. Beneil Dariush is a good fighter, but this is a massive step up in competition for him. I like Ferguson to get back into the winners circle here and for Dariush to get overwhelmed in the moment; lay it! T.M. Prediction: TKO/SUB/KO. | |||||||
05-15-21 | Indians v. Mariners +100 | Top | 3-7 | Win | 100 | 14 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Mariners (10* SHOCKER BEST OF THE BEST). The Mariners broke a five-game slide in yesterday's 7-3 series opening win vs. the Tribe, and I look for them to build and carry that momentum over here in a favorable starting pitching matchup. Justus Sheffield is just 2-3 with a 4.91 ERA for the Mariners, but he's been at his best at home, going 2-1 with a 3.89 ERA, comapred to 0-1 with a 9.00 ERA on the road. Trison McKenzie isn't anything to write home about for the Indians. That said, he comes in off a great start vs. the Royals on Thursday, going five scoreless. Previous to that he was shelled for five runs over two innings. Look for McKenzie's inconsistencies to come back and haunt him here again! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Seattle. | |||||||
05-15-21 | Bruins v. Capitals +117 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 117 | 12 h 45 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Capitals (10* MONEY-MAKER). Wasington is now the underdog in Game 1. Boston looked terrible over the first part of the season, but a second half surge has its numbers on par with Washington's heading into this series. The Capitals also struggled with defensive consistency early, but each team is among the leaders on both ends of the ice heading into the playoffs. I love the Capitals at home here though, as I expect them to "up" their level of play now that the post-season is here. Also note that the Capitals are 7-2 in their last nine as a home dog in the +105 to +125 range; great value on the home side here! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Washington. | |||||||
05-15-21 | West Ham United v. Brighton & Hove Albion UNDER 2.5 | Top | 1-1 | Win | 100 | 8 h 41 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: West Ham/Brighton UNDER 2.5 (10* TOTAL OF WEEK). West Ham is looking to keep its top four hopes alive. The Seagulls are 17th in the standings, and I think they'll just go through the motions here. The Hammers on the other hand are sixth, so this is a big game for them. And after drawing 2-2 in the reverse fixture earlier, don't expect the visitors to take anything for granted; this one has under written all over it! T.M. Prediction: 1-0 Hammers. | |||||||
05-15-21 | Suns v. Spurs UNDER 223 | Top | 140-103 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 38 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Spurs/Suns UNDER (10* TOTAL PLAYBOOK). The Spurs struggled in their last game, falling 102-98 in New York, and I think they'll struggle again here vs. the Suns. Phoenix held on for a 118-117 win over Portland last time out, and everything points to a letdown here (note that the Suns have seen the total go under the number in eight of their last 11 after scoring 115 or more points in their previous outing.) This number is high, the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-14-21 | Pelicans v. Warriors OVER 229.5 | Top | 122-125 | Win | 100 | 15 h 47 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Warriors/Pels OVER (10* TOTAL BEST OF BEST). The Pelicans have lost three of four, but I expect them to push the pace of this one in an attempt to try and play spoiler here. When Zion Williamson went down with injury a couple weeks ago, so too did the Pels chances. The Warriors though are pushing hard for a playoff spot and they've won six of their last seven overall. Most recently the beat the Suns at home 122-116, getting 38 points from Andrew Wiggins. Most stars are sitting this one out, so look for the backups to push the pace in a contest which I don't foresee having any defense played whatsoever; this number is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-14-21 | Maple Leafs -155 v. Jets | Top | 2-4 | Loss | -155 | 13 h 14 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Leafs (10* MONEY-MAKER). This is the final regular season game and I like the North conference leading Leafs to send a message to the struggling Jets, who have lost eight of their last ten. Winnipeg comes in off a highly satisfying 5-0 win over the Canucks as well. Both teams will be resting starters, but Toronto's depth is the difference here. It's superior defense is as well. I'm laying the price, but expecting a lop-sided blowout! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Toronto. | |||||||
05-14-21 | Phillies v. Blue Jays -143 | Top | 5-1 | Loss | -143 | 13 h 44 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blue Jays (10* TRADE-MARK). Vince Velasquez (1-0, 4.18 ERA) of the Phillies goes up against Steven Matz (5-2, 4.86) of the Jays. These starters are a "wash" right now in my opinion, although I'll give the slight nod to Matz, who has done better over a longer period of time. The Phillies are poor on the road, and in interleague contests. The Jays are four games above .500 for the first time this season. Toronto has much better bullpen. All things considered, I believe this line should definitely be a lot larger; pull the trigger, the play is the Jays! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Jays. | |||||||
05-13-21 | Nuggets -4.5 v. Wolves | Top | 114-103 | Win | 100 | 11 h 57 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Nuggets (10* TRADE-MARK). Yes, Minnesota has been playing a lot better of late. That tends to happen to teams which have played poorly all season, and then catch other teams tired or disinerested at the end of the season. Minnesota just hammered the Pistons 119-100 on the road, but the Nuggets aren't going to roll over here, as they're still in a tight race in the West standing with just a couple of games to go. Denver is playing well right now as well, as it's won 11 of its last 14. I say Minnesota is the one due for a letdown here after its rare big road win, while I look for the Nuggets to improve upon their impressive 21-4-1 ATS record here in their last 26 visits to Minnesota; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-13-21 | Yankees -134 v. Rays | Top | 1-9 | Loss | -134 | 10 h 56 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Yankees (10* TRADE-MARK). The Yankees will have no mercy on Tampa. New York has been stifled by the Rays over the last couple of years, so it will always look to kick Tampa when it's down moving forward. After a very slow start as well, New York is finaly starting to hit its stride, as it enters having won four in a row and eight of its last ten. Tampa is trending the other way now, loser of four of its last five. Jameson Taillon (1-2, 5.02 ERA) and Rich Hill (1-1, 5.17) are a "wash" as far as the starters are concerned, but look for New York to improve upon its 7-2 record in its last nine after three or more straight vicotries in a row; great price on the red hot Yankees! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Yanks. | |||||||
05-12-21 | Cardinals v. Brewers -167 | Top | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 10 h 29 m | Show |
TM Selection: Milwaukee Brewers St. Louis took the series opener by a score of 6-1 in extra innings yesterday, so I expect the home side to respond here. The Cards are 22-14 and the Brewers are 19-17. But after four-straight wins, I think St. Louis is going to finally stumble here vs. the revenge-minded home side. John Gant walked six mets over four innings in his last start as well for the Cardinals. He's a veteran reliever, and I think he'll struggle in this difficult road venue. Brandon Woodruff counters for the home side and he's dominated the Phillies in his last start, allowing one run off tow hits with 11 K's over six innings. Bank on the Brewers bouncing big in this favorable matchup! TM Prediction: 5-2 Brewers | |||||||
05-12-21 | Wizards v. Hawks OVER 240 | Top | 116-120 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 51 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Wizards/Hawks OVER (10* EAST-CONF TOTAL OF YEAR). These two teams just played here two nights ago and the Hawks won a high-scoring 125-124 contest. With revenge on its mind, look for Washington to once again push the pace and for the Hawks to match suit. There won't be any defense played here at all, and there's no reason no to think these players can't duplicate their efficiency this time around as well. Finally, note that Washington has seen the total go over the number in seven of its last 11 in trying to revenge a road loss vs. an opponent in which it allowed 125 or more points in; this number is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-11-21 | Mavs -2 v. Grizzlies | Top | 104-133 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Mavericks (10* TRADE-MARK). The Mavericks have won 10 of 12. They've won four in a row, most recently a 124-97 road victory over the Cavaliers. Memphis has won three of four, but Luka Doncic is for sure a matchup issue for the home side. This is a big game/stretch for Dallas, as it sits just one game ahead of Portland in fourth spot in the West, a coveted position heading into the post-season. I look for the red hot Mavs to continue their torrid end of season run; lay the short points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-11-21 | Rangers v. Giants -150 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 8 h 11 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Giants (10* TRADE-MARK). San Fran has won three of four, including yesterday's game vs. the Rangers by a score of 3-1. While I do expect a few more runs to be plated this time around, I still think the value lies on the surging home side. I'm going to lay the price. Lance Webb (1-3, 5.34 ERA), is coming off a poor loss, allowing six runs over 3.2 innings to the Rockies. The start came at Coors though, as note that he's a red hot 1-0 with a 2.08 ERA in three starts at home this season. Jordan Lyles (1-2, 7.09), and while he does come in off a decent outing vs. the Twins, note that he's a poor 0-1 with a 12.27 ERA at home this season. Expect Webb to bounce back in friendly confines; lay the price! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Giants. | |||||||
05-10-21 | Hurricanes v. Predators UNDER 5.5 | Top | 0-5 | Win | 100 | 13 h 46 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canes/Preds UNDER (10* TOTAL OF WEEK). Carolina has already locked down the No. 1 spot. The Predators beat Carolina 3-1 last time out, and they're in the fourth spot. Both teams now need to start planning for the playoffs. Carolina could rest some key players here. Expect a slower-paced affair, where each team waits for the other to make the first mistake. T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Carolina. | |||||||
05-10-21 | Reds -134 v. Pirates | Top | 14-1 | Win | 100 | 11 h 14 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Reds (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). The Pirates managed to snap their three-game slide with a 6-5 win at Chicago, but I think they'll make an immediate return to mediocrity here. The Reds two-game streak was broken with 9-2 loss at Cleveland on Saturday. The Reds have the better in form starting pitcher in the opener of this series, and I expect that to be the difference maker. Tyler Mahle (1-1, 3.23 ERA) is coming off a poor start vs. the Cubs, giving up six runs and striking out six over six innings in a no-decision. Overall he's been sharp thoug, and so is his 41/11 K/W thus far. Mitch Keller (2-3, 6.29 ERA), enters off his best start of the season, going five scoreless vs. the Padres. Previous to that, Keller has been a complete disaster, so expect a return to the norm tonight after his most recent overachieving gem last time out. I'm laying the price, and expecting a decisive victory! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Cincinnati. | |||||||
05-09-21 | Phillies v. Braves +101 | Top | 1-6 | Win | 101 | 11 h 39 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Braves (10* BEST OF THE BEST). Both teams have similar offensive and defensive numbers. Both are equally as hungry for a win here. The value lies on the home side in my opinion, based upon the struggles of Aaron Nola on the road. Nola is a much better pitcher at home, while Huscuar Ynoa has been lights out at home. Nola is 3-1 with a 2.89 ERA overall, but 1-1 with a 5.00 ERA on the road. Ynoa is 2-0 with a 1.58 ERA at home. The value lies on the home side here for sure! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Atlanta. | |||||||
05-09-21 | Knicks v. Clippers UNDER 216 | Top | 106-100 | Win | 100 | 7 h 13 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Clippers/Knicks UNDER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). The Clippers have seen the total go under in seven straight. Their offense has been good (averaging 114.2 PPG this year, which is 10th), but they've been extremely good defensively of late, holding Toronto to 100 points and the Lakers to just 94 in back-to-back victories. This is a big game for LA as well, as it then hits the road after this for five games to finish off its regular season. This is its final regular season home game. The Knicks are struggling now on this road trip, which isn't completely unexpected considering how well they've been playing overall. New York only averages 107.2 PPG, but it makes up for it on the other end with a Top 5 defense; look for this one to fall well under the posted number! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-08-21 | Nets v. Nuggets +4 | Top | 125-119 | Loss | -105 | 13 h 20 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Nuggets (10* TRADE-MARK). Off a 127-120 loss in Utah last night, the red hot Nuggets got caught looking ahead to this game vs. the Nets. We're getting great value on the now focussed home side, who I believe will be ready and that fatigue won't be an issue at all. Brooklyn has been playing terribly of late, as it's lost FOUR in a row. With two whole nights off after this before a game at Chicago, this also sets up as a letdown spot for the visiting side. This is Denver's final home game of the season, as it concludes with four straight on the road. I say the Nuggets come to play tonight and find a way to deliver; that said, grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-08-21 | Hurricanes v. Predators +111 | Top | 1-3 | Win | 111 | 11 h 16 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Predators (10* TRADE-MARK). Both teams are steaming towards the playoffs, but this one MEANS MORE to the home side. Nashville had its two game win streak snapped last time out in a -2 setback at Columbus. It plays with revenge here though after falling 3-1 to the Hurricanes in their most recent matchup. Carolina's four-game win streak ended in a 2-1 OT loss to Chicago last time out and note that it's just 2-6 in its last eight after scoring one or less goals in an OT loss in its last outing. Great value on the hungry home side! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Nashville. | |||||||
05-08-21 | Christian Aguilera v. Carlston Harris -150 | Top | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 53 h 19 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Carlston Harris (10* UFC FIGHT OF THE WEEK). Analysis posted shortly. T.M. Prediction: KO/TKO/SUB. | |||||||
05-08-21 | Rockies v. Cardinals OVER 8 | Top | 8-9 | Win | 101 | 5 h 24 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rockies/Cards OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). St. Louis won 5-0 yesterday. While that game stayed well under the number, I believe we'll see a much higher-scoring slug-fest between these two hungry clubs this afternoon. The Cardinals go with Carlos Martinez (2-4, 3.72 ERA), who went eight shutout vs. the Pirates in his last start. While he's 4-1 in 13 career appearances vs. the Rockies, he owns just a 5.57 ERA in that span. Chi Chi Gonzalez (1-0, 4.38) counters for the visiting side; he most recently was shelled for four runs off five hits over four innings in what turned out to be an 8-4 road loss to the D-Backs. Everything points to a similar final combined score here as well in my opinion; this number is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 7-6 St. Louis. | |||||||
05-07-21 | Magic v. Hornets OVER 215.5 | Top | 112-122 | Win | 100 | 12 h 39 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Hornets/Magic OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). The Hornets are desperate for a win here, especially after last night's 120-99 loss to Chicago at home. The Hornets have struggled with offensive consistency over their last two games, but I beliee it'll return to form here vs. the horrendous Magic, who are simply playing out the tail end of their season. Orlando's players are trying to prove themselves though and with Charlotte also out to push the pace, it all sets up beautifully from a situational stand-point as a higer-scoring over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-07-21 | White Sox -149 v. Royals | Top | 3-0 | Win | 100 | 12 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: White Sox (10* TRADE-MARK!). The White Sox have been trading wins/losses over their last six games. Off a 1-0 loss at Cincy two days ago, I think they'll open up this new series with a victory in this favorable matchup. The Royals have lost five in a row. In their most recent three-game series loss to Cleveland they managed just 7 runs total. Carlos Rodon (4-0, 0.72 ERA) is going to have a letdown at some point for the Chi-Sox, but I don't expect that big drop off game to happen here. Brad Keller (2-3, 8.06) has been a disaster for KC. All things considered, this price should/could in fact be much larger; lay it with confidence! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Chicago. | |||||||
05-07-21 | Flyers +160 v. Capitals | Top | 4-2 | Win | 160 | 11 h 35 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flyers (10* SLAP-SHOT). After two straight victories on the road in New York, I believe that Washington is going to stumble here. Philadelphia won't be rolling over and offers great value to pull off the upset in the Nation's capital tonight. The Flyers play with revenge as well after falling 6-3 in the most recent matchup in mid-April. The Flyers have had two nights off after falling 7-3 to Pittsburgh (after beating the Pens 7-2 the night before that), and note that they're 4-1 in their last five after allowing six or more goals in a loss in their previous outing. Everything points to an upset here! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Philly. | |||||||
05-06-21 | Thunder v. Warriors OVER 227 | Top | 97-118 | Loss | -110 | 27 h 28 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Warriors/Thunder OVER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). The Warriors will look to do what they do best, and that's push the pace and spread the floor and shoot a lot of three balls against this struggling Thunder side that's simply going through the motions at this point as it plays out the end of the seaons. OKC comes in on a four-game losing streak. The Warriors are out to bounce back off a 108-103 road loss to New Orleans, two nights after destroying the Pels in their own building. Golden State can't afford to take the foot off the gas as it sits in the eighth spot. Finally note that Golden State has seen the total go over the number in eight of its last 11 off a SU/ATS road loss in which it was held to 105 points or less in. T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-06-21 | Canucks +1.5 v. Oilers | Top | 6-3 | Win | 100 | 26 h 24 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canucks PUCK LINE (10* ELITE OF THE ELITE). I like the Canucks to at the very least, take this one to extra time and because of that, I'm going to suggest to lay the very reasonable price for the extra 1.5 goals of insurance. The Canucks are desperate to break a six-game slide. They've lost two straight here, but note that the Canucks are 7-2 in their last nine in trying to revenge a three goals or greater road loss vs. an opponent. I think Edmonton gets caught flat-footed here! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Vancouver. | |||||||
05-06-21 | Blue Jays -139 v. A's | Top | 10-4 | Win | 100 | 21 h 54 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blues Jays (10* BEST OF THE BEST). With its ace on the mound Hyun Jin Ryu, I like Toronto to build on yesterday's 9-4 victory. Ryu is 1-2 with a 2.60 ERA, and his counterpart is Mike Fiers, who is 0-1 with a 4.50 ERA. Fiers is in the starting rotation out of necessity, so I'm giving a huge nod to Ryu in this matchup. And honestly, it's as simple as that for me. The Jays are hammering the baseball these days, which does not bode well for Fiers; lay the short price! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Jays. | |||||||
05-05-21 | Kings v. Pacers -5.5 | Top | 104-93 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 32 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Pacers (10* TRADE-MARK). The Pacers are in need of a win here. After smashing OKC 152-95, it then lost 154-141 in the nation's capital two nights later. The Pacers play with revenge here as well after falling 127-122 in Sacramento in January. And with a game in ATL tomorrow night, tonight's game takes on added importance for the home side. And after three straight victories, the overachieving Kings are primed for a classic "letdown" on the road here; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-05-21 | Golden Knights v. Wild +115 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 28 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Wild (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). These two teams are neck and neck heading into the final few games. Minnesota won here 6-5 two nights ago and it's won eight of its last ten. Vegas has lost two of its last three. Minnesota has Anaheim up next for two games, while Vegas has two against the Blues. Look for Vegas to get caught looking ahead and for the surging home side to take advantage; lay the price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Minnesota. | |||||||
05-05-21 | Diamondbacks v. Marlins -133 | Top | 0-8 | Win | 100 | 10 h 1 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Marlins (10* MONEY-MAKER). The Marlins pulled away late for a big win last night, and I expect them to keep the foot on the gas here in this favorable starting pitching matchup. The home side goes with Pablo Lopez (2-0, 2.34 ERA), who has a sharp 34 to 10 strikeout to walk ratio over 34.2 innings of work. Luke Weaver (1-2, 4.91), gave up three runs off five hits over four innings in a no-decision vs. the Rockies. His 4.99 FIP points to further regression here in this difficult park as well; all things considered, a fantastic price on the home side here! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Miami. | |||||||
05-04-21 | Warriors +1.5 v. Pelicans | Top | 103-108 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 36 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Warriors (10* GAME OF THE MONTH). Golden State is currently in eighth spot, only 3.5 games out of sixth. The Pels are 2.5 games behind the No. 10 play in spot in the Western Conference. The Warriors just beat the Pels 123-108 on Monday, fueled by 41 points from Stephen Curry. Frankly, I see a repeat performance tonight. Over their last ten games the Warriors are averaging 114.2 PPG. The Pels are now just 1-4 ATS in their last five home games, while the Warriors are 5-1 ATS in their last six in an underdog role. Expect Golden State to lay the hammer down again tonight! T.M. Prediction: POSTED SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-04-21 | Penguins v. Flyers +149 | Top | 7-3 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 33 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flyers (10* TRADE-MARK). Off a 7-2 win here in these team's last matchup, I like the Flyers to get the job done again here as well. Clearly, the Penguins are the better team, but Pittsburgh is now already planning and looking ahead to the playoffs, which start next week. Philly averages 3.5 GPG, and it looked great defensively in its last outing. All things considered, unbelievable value in this situational play on the still hungry home side! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Flyers. | |||||||
05-04-21 | Braves v. Nationals OVER 8.5 | Top | 6-1 | Loss | -115 | 10 h 30 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Nationals/Braves OVER (10* MONEY-MAKER). A couple of suspect starters go head to head in this one and in my opinion, every points to a "slug-fest!" The Braves turned to Huascar Ynoa, while the Nationals go with Joe Ross. Both are actually coming off strong showings, with Ynoa going 5.1 scoreless vs. the Cubs, while Ross gave up one run over six innings in a victory over the Mets. Let's take those performances with a grain of salt though, as neither is an offensive juggernaut. These teams are in the upper half in terms of OPS and everything points to this one flying over the number sooner, rather than later! T.M. Prediction: 7-6 Braves. | |||||||
05-03-21 | Nuggets v. Lakers UNDER 219 | Top | 89-93 | Win | 100 | 13 h 21 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Nuggets/Lakers UNDER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). The Lakers are 0-2 since LBJ has returned. Fatigue will be a major factor here as well for the King and company after falling 121-114 at home to the Raptors just last night. The Nuggets are off a 110-104 road victory over the Clippers, and I expect them to shut down the struggling Lakers here as well. Both teams will be running their offenses through their big men, and that means a lot of "half court sets" while they're on offense. The Lakers are struggling with offensive consistency right now and I believe that trend continues here vs. this hungry visiting side; this number is high, the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-03-21 | Capitals -111 v. Rangers | Top | 6-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 17 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Capitals (10* TRADE-MARK). Both teams have been playing terrible lately. The Rangers are coming off back-to-back shutout losses to the Islanders, while the Capitals are coming off back-to-back losses to the Penguins, including getting shutout 3-0 in the last one. These teams are similar in their offensive and defensive averages, but Washington is 7-2 in its last nine in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent in which it allowed five or more goals in (lost 5-2 in the most recent matchup.) I'm banking on Ovechkin and company to take advantage of this now struggling Rangers' offense! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Washington. | |||||||
05-02-21 | Suns v. Thunder +13.5 | Top | 123-120 | Win | 100 | 26 h 0 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: OKC (10* TRADE-MARK). The Thunder got throttled by the Pacers 152-95 last night. OKC threw in the white flag early in that one, so fatigue isn't going to be an issue. But after that embarrassing effort, I believe we'll see a much better effort from the home side tonight. Clearly, the Suns are the better team in this matchup. In fact, if going by their win/loss record, they're the best team in the NBA. However, I think the visiting side is going to classically get caught looking past its lowly opponent here. The SUns are off a highly satisfying 121-100 win over the Jazz. Phoenix has hit a "vanilla" part of its final schedule here, with this game at Oakland, followed by games at Cleveland and Atlanta. This one sets up as a letdown spot for the visitors, who could very well rest several starters; grab the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-02-21 | Mets -103 v. Phillies | Top | 8-7 | Win | 100 | 25 h 57 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Mets (10* BEST OF THE BEST). The Mets broke a three-game slide with a 5-4 win last night and I think they offer great value to make it two in a row here. The visitors hand the ball to David Peterson, who comes in off a loss, despite it being his best effort of the season thus far, allowing two runs off four hits with three K's over six innings in a 2-1 loss to Boston. His ERA is undermining a very strong 21/7 K/W though and I believe he's in for a big days here vs. this inconsistent Phillies line-up. Zach Efflin is 1-1, but he comes in off his worst start of the season, allowing five runs off nine hits over six innings. Efflin has a strong 27/2 K/W, but further regression is imminent in my opinion. Bank on New York building off yesterday's win with another one here! T.M. Prediction: 5-4 New York. | |||||||
05-01-21 | Grizzlies v. Magic UNDER 222.5 | Top | 111-112 | Loss | -108 | 12 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Magic/Grizz UNDER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). No need for the 31-30 Memphis Grizzlies to "run up" this score. Instead they'll be out to control the tempo of this one, similar to last night's commanding 92-75 home win over these very Magic just last night. What's going to change here? The Magic are in full on rebuild mode and after only mustering 75 points last night, fatigue is a major factor here for the home side in the second game of the back-to-back scenario. I expect a similar final combined score here in Orlando as well; the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
05-01-21 | Panthers v. Blackhawks +135 | Top | 5-4 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 33 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blackhawks (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). I like the Hawks to avenge their 4-3 home loss to these very Panthers two nights ago. The Hawks are 7-2 in their last nine in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent in which they allowed four or more goals in. Florida has a night off after this before finishing its regular season campaign with three straight at home vs. the Stars and two ain a row vs. the Lightning. Off the win and with those more important home contests upcoming, everything points to the visiting side having a letdown here. Great value play on the Hawks! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Chicago. | |||||||
05-01-21 | Cubs v. Reds OVER 8.5 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 36 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Reds/Cubs OVER (10*). The Reds rolled to an 8-6 win yesterday and I expect a similar final combined score here. A couple of confirmed "gas cans" go head to head in thisone. The visitors hand the ball to the struggling Zach Davies, who has a 9.47 ERA over five appearances for his new team. The Reds counter with Luis Castillo, who has a poor 6.29 ERA over 24.1 innings of work this year. The over is 20-6-2 in the Cubs last 28 as a road dog and everything points to another slug-fest for sure here as well; the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 8-7 Reds. | |||||||
05-01-21 | Aston Villa v. Everton -0.5 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -100 | 6 h 24 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Everton (10* EPL GOW). Everton beat Arsenal last time out and I expect it to keep the foot on the gas here as well. The Toffees are in eighth spot, while Villa is in 11th. Everton though is now firmly in the race for the Top 4 after last weeks win. And with a huge game vs. West Ham on the 9th, it puts added incentive to deliver in this favorable matchup. Everton has won 10 of its 16 road matches. Villa is coming off a 2-2 draw with West Brom. Here's a chance for the Toffees to reverse their fortunes here at home though. T.M. Prediction: 2-0 Everton. | |||||||
04-30-21 | Kings v. Lakers -9.5 | Top | 110-106 | Loss | -110 | 29 h 12 m | Show |
TT.M. Selection: Lakers (10* TRADE-MARK). The Lakers have lost five straight ATS. Four of those have come on the road, as LA finally returns home. AD has had a couple games under his belt now and The King is about to return as well. With a chance to bounce back after a 116-107 loss at Washington, I expect the Lakers to bring their "A" game tonight. Sacramento is injured and it's simply playing out the rest of its season. The Kings most recently got destroyed 154-105 at home to the Jazz. Look for the Lakers to take advantage and to keep the foot on the gas from stat to finish; lay the points! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-30-21 | Kings v. Ducks +109 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -100 | 29 h 38 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Ducks (10* TOP-SHELF DESTROYER). Both teams are just playing out the string of the regular season. The Kings have lost three of four and I expect them to struggle to find any energy here. The Ducks just snapped a five-game losing streak with a 3-2 win over the Kings here two nights ago. Momentum favors the Ducks here, as they're 7-2 in their last nine after a home win in which they scored three or more goals in; all things considered, a great price on the home side here! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Anaheim. | |||||||
04-30-21 | Royals v. Twins OVER 8 | Top | 1-9 | Win | 100 | 27 h 41 m | Show |
T.T.M. Selection: Twins/Royals OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). The Royals have been playing well of late, as they've won six of their last seven. they average 4.52 RPG. Singer has been sharp, he's 1-2 with a 2.95 ERA, but regression seems imminent vs. this hungry Twins side, which finally snapped a five-game slide with a big 10-2 win over the Tribe last night. Michael Pineda has been good as well, although he comes in off a poor outing, getting shelled for five runs over 4.1 innings in a loss to the Pirates. All signs point to these two starters getting chased early; as a result, look for this one to fly well over! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-30-21 | Leicester +105 v. Southampton | Top | 1-1 | Loss | -100 | 21 h 29 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Leicester City (10*). No need to overthink this one. These teams are moving in opposite directions and I expect that to continue here. The Foxes are flyihng high right now in third place, while the Saints have lost three in a row across all competitions. Leicester's recent run began with a 1-0 win over Southampton at Wembley in the FA Cup semi's just two weeks ago. Expect a similar final result here, except even more decisive! T.M. Prediction: 2-0 Leicester. | |||||||
04-29-21 | Pelicans v. Thunder UNDER 229 | Top | 109-95 | Win | 100 | 12 h 7 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Pels/OKC UNDER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). New Orleans is off a 114-112 loss at Denver just last night and I think it'll struggle with fatigue in the second game of the back to back. The regular season is fast approaching and these teams are tired. No need to run up the score here on the Thunder either, who have been consistently inconsistent all year and who are primed for a letdown after a rare 119-115 road win at Boston, scoring 41 points in the fourth quarter. OKC only averages 105.5 PPG this year, so expect a return to the norm. A great situational play on the under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
04-29-21 | Panthers v. Blackhawks +141 | Top | 4-3 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 4 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blackhawks (10* ULTIMATE SHOCKER). Chicago and Florida have similar offensive and defensive numbers. This one means a lot more to the Hawks though, still battling for a spot and off back-to-back losses to the Lightning. They beat the Panthers 3-0 in late March in these team's most recent matchup vs. each other. After a 7-4 win over Nashville last time out, the Panthers have alternated wins and losses over their last five games. Expect this pattern to continue in this difficult road venu; the play is the Hawks! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Chicago. | |||||||
04-29-21 | Yankees v. Orioles OVER 9 | Top | 3-4 | Loss | -120 | 4 h 2 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Yanks/Orioles OVER (10* MONEY-MAKER). The bottom line is, I don't trust either of these starters and that's why I LOVE the over in this one. Jordan Montgomery is 1-1 with a 4.57 ERA, most recently allowing three runs off four hits over four innings in a no-decision vs. the Indians on Friday for the Yankees. Jorge Lopez has been a complete disaster in the early going for the O's, as he's 1-3 with a ballooned 8.15 ERA. Look for these two to get the hook early here and for this total to fly over sooner, rather than later! T.M. Prediction: 8-7 New York. |
