Cerundolo +3.5 games. I’ll take a shot with Cerundolo on clay vs. Zverev who has played a lot of tough matches in the last two weeks. I think the fatigue catches up to him here

Char -3.5

Figure they must be the side being this big a fav on the road they won a close one at home now the jitters should be gone and they can relax and just play this is a good rebounding team so ORL should be one and done on the offensive end and I think this will allow Char to pull away in the 2nd half so let’s take the Hornets


Still don’t know why I have to login every time I want on the site

Chicago Cubs -140
Cubs averaging 5.22 runs per game compared to 3.42 for the Mets
Mets have scored a total of three runs in their last four games
Cubs have scored 7+ runs in four straight games
Mets starter Senga has a 7.07 ERA and has been awful so far this season
Cubs starter Cabrera has a 1.62 ERA and 1.14 WHIP

Athletics -160…A’s pitcher Civale on hot streak since start of season at 2-0 1.72 era now facing 6-13 White Sox…like A’s get the win at home

New York Mets / Chicago Cubs under 10.5

The Mets have only scored 12 times during their eight-game losing streak, and starter Kodai Senga’s underlying 3.43 xFIP suggests there’s positive regression ahead of his 7.07 ERA -- especially considering he posted a 3.00 ERA over his first 52 starts in the majors. A better outing from Senga paired with New York continuing to struggle at the dish paves the way to this total going Under the number. Even with the wind forecasted to be blowing out to left at Wrigley Field this afternoon.

Hornets -3.5 -107

Since all star break Hornets are 2nd in raw offensive rating and 7th raw defensive, while the Magics are 15th and 12th respectively. Also the last 3 games they played, Charlotte won by average 20.3 points. Knueppel was off in his 1st post season game, I would expect him to shoot much better tonight. Good luck.

The number is high for a reason and Cabrera struggles against this team but let’s go Mets cubs over 10 in the early slate. Wind blowing out and with sengas walk issues look for plenty of traffic to be in base and opportunities for the long ball producing big innings

Orlando over 218.5 The total has gone OVER in 5 of Orlando's last 6 games at home.

Cubs -150

Not the greatest number at -150 but clear advantages here for the Cubs. Cubs are plus 19 in runs this year and the Mets are -14. More importantly is the pitching matchup here with Edward Cabrera going for the Cubs. He’s 1-0 with 1.62 ERA. His ERA is better than the WHIP for Senga of the Mets. He’s 0-2 and has allowed 9 runs this month in 2 starts.

MLB

I'm really not trying to be a ball buster, and I appreciate that you put out thoughtful posts. However, you post 1 minute before 1st pitch. How does that help? I put a PSA up yesterday that posts aren't going to be approved anymore when this happens.

TB +110
Battle of 2 really hot teams. Pirates should have won yesterday but
Rays have won 6 straight and 8 of 10. 3rd in Avg and 9th in SLG
Rays are a good value +110

Paolo Banchero Over 23.5 Points

It has been a disappointing season for Banchero with injuries and inconsistent play. I took this same prop in the first play-in game and he only scored 18. At home, in a win or you done game, I think he takes the most shots and is a bit more efficient, He has only averaged 19 in 4 games against the Hornets this season, but a couple were with limited minutes. I think we see all of him tonight...

Diamondbacks Ml -140, if you exclude the first inning vs Philadelphia Soroka has been one of the best pitchers in baseball this season while Eric lauer is struggling to throw strikes with his 9 walks in 12 innings so I think this price is a bit of a bargain

Clev under 7.5 both teams have decent pitchers on the mound but the offense from both sides will struggle take the under

charlotte -160
Hornets playing the much better basketball right now. ORlando is in shambles lose to Boston subs. Blow game earlier this week and now must beat Charlotte that is en fuego and off dramatic comeback victory.


Hornets advance

Golden State +2.5

This is a tough game but I like GS coming off that inspired win the other night. They had it there all and showed they want to be part of the playoffs. I see Golden State giving another A effort and pulling out outright win

Suns ML -150....The Suns are rested and at home where they have a winning record...The Warriors will see Curry double teamed and be frustrated to score on the road.

NBA Golden State +3
The warriors are 6-4 in the last 10 meetings.
They won on the road against clippers so
I think that will carry on tonight
