15* SHARP PLAY on Padres vs Diamondbacks over 9 -107

The OVER (9) is worth a look in Sunday's AL West matchup between the Padres and Diamondbacks. Arizona's offense is on fire right now. Dbacks have scored no fewer than 5 runs in their 6 games. They got 4 games in this stretch where they have scored 7 or more. They are going to need that offense with Robbie Ray on the mound. Ray has 10.58 ERA and 2.116 WHIP in 4 starts. Both teams figure to score early and often. Play the OVER 9! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Jim Herman +150

*All golf picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

20* SHARP PLAY on Indians -140

Cleveland (-140) is worth a look as they go for the sweep in Sunday's series finale at Detroit. Indians have really got things going in the month of August. Cleveland is 7-3 over their last 10 games. They should keep it rolling here. Indians will send out Adam Plutko, who has a 2.70 ERA in 2 starts. Detroit counters with Michael Fulmer, who has a 6.35 ERA and 1.76 WHIP in 2 starts. Play Cleveland -140! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Atlético MG -185

*All soccer picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

20* SHARP PLAY on Angels +140

The Angels (+140) are worth a look as a big home dog against the Dodgers in Saturday's MLB action. Walker Buehler just hasn't been on his game so far this season. He's made 3 starts and has a 4.39 ERA. He's really struggled with his command of late, as he has 7 walks in his last 10.7 innings of work. He's also given up 4 homers in his 3 starts. Play the Angels +140! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Rangers vs Rockies over 12 -106

The OVER (12) is worth a look in Saturday's Interleague matchup between the Rockies and Rangers at hitter friendly Coors Field. After a pretty low scoring (3-2) game on Friday, I look for these two offenses to explode. Ball should really be carry well tonight, as it's going to be in the mid 90s when this game tips off. Play the OVER 12! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Avalanche vs Coyotes over 5 -140

*All NHL picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies +6 -110

The Grizzlies (+6) are worth a look. Most aren't giving Memphis any shot at getting past the Blazers to face the Lakers in the first round. I believe it's created some value with the Grizzlies here. Keep in mind this is do or die only for Memphis. If they lose they are done. If Portland loses they play again tomorrow. With the way the Blazers are playing defense, this is a really big number to ask them to cover in this spot. Play Memphis +6! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Dinamo Moscow -164

*All soccer picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

20* SHARP PLAY on Rangers -110

The Ranges (-110) are worth a look as a small road favorite against the Rockies. This is just too good a price to pass up on Texas with Lance Lynn on the mound. Guy has been one of the best starters so far in 2020. Lynn has a 1.16 ERA and 0.943 WHIP in 4 starts. Colorado will counter with Ryan Castellani, who is making just his second career start. Play the Rangers -110!

20* SHARP PLAY on Nets +9 -110

The Nets (+9) are worth a look here as a big dog against the Blazers. Everyone is going to be wanting to play Portland because of what's at stake. I believe it's created some big time value with Brooklyn. Nets will have enough talent on the floor to be competitive. You also have to keep in mind the lack of defense Portland plays. They have given up 115 or more in all but one game. Brooklyn also a quiet 5-1 SU and 5-1 ATS over their last 6 games. Play the Nets +9! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Pirates vs Reds over 9 -115

The OVER (9) is worth a look in Thursday's MLB action between the Pirates and Reds. I could Cincinnati going off here. Trevor Williams will go for the Pirates. He was great in his last start at home, but has struggled on the road. Williams has a 5.40 ERA and 1.559 WHIP in 2 road starts. Reds starter Anthony Desclafani is 2-6 with a 4.35 ERA and 1.351 WHIP in 13 career starts against the Pirates. This easily gets to 10 runs. Play the OVER 9!

15* SHARP PLAY on Marlins vs Blue Jays over 8½ -106

The OVER (8.5) is worth a look in Wednesday's interleague matchup between the Blue Jays and Marlins. I think Toronto could hit this mark on their own, as they should put some runs on the board early against Marlins' starter Jordan Yamamoto. He was not good in his first and only start of 2020 last week against the Orioles. Nate Pearson is a solid prospect, but he wasn't nearly as good in start two as he was in his debut. Miami's offense has been scoring of late. Play the OVER 8.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Raptors -6½ -110

The Raptors (-6.5) are worth a look as a middle of the pack favorite against the 76ers. Philadelphia is a bit of mess. They didn't look good early on in the bubble and have since suffered the massive loss of Ben Simmons. Embiid, Harris and Horford are all questionable for this game, which really means nothing for either side. Thing is the Raptors haven't showed signs of calling off laying down. I think Toronto makes easy work of Philadelphia in this one. Play the Raptors -6.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Diamondbacks vs Rockies under 12 -113

The UNDER (12) is worth a look in Wednesday's NL West matchup between the Rockies and Diamondbacks. Big number here and hard to argue given these two put up 20 in Game 1 and 15 in Game 2 of this 3 game series. However, I think we see them fail to reach the mark tonight. Antonio Senzatela has been great for Colorado and we know Arizona's Luke Weaver is better than his numbers. His last start against the Rockies, which was on the road, he held them to just 1 run on 3 hits with 8 K's. Play the UNDER 12! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Djurgardens -185

*All soccer picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

15* SHARP PLAY on Angels -118

I'll take my chances here with the Angels (-118) at home against the A's. Los Angeles put Oakland's 9-game win streak to rest last night and have just the guy on the mound to build on that victory. Angels will have Dylan Bundy on the mound and he's been great in 2020. Bundy has a 2.08 ERA and 0.600 WHIP in 3 starts (averaging 7.2 innings per start). Mike Fiers goes for A's and he's got a 5.62 ERA and 1.312 WHIP in 3 starts. Play the Angels -118! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Nationals -140

I'll take my chances here with the Nationals (-140) in Tuesday's division matchup with the Mets. All you really need to know is that Max Scherzer is on the mound for Washington. This is simply too good a price to pass up on the Nationals with one of the best starters in the game going. I'm also not a big fan of the Mets Porcello. He's coming off a great start, but he's as inconsistent as they come. Give me the Nationals -140! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Celtics -5 +101

I'll take my chances with the Celtics (-5) cashing in a win and cover against the Grizzlies. I think we are getting a good price on Boston, as the perception out there is that they have nothing to play for with the No. 3 seed locked up. That's really nothing new and they have kept playing hard. They are also a deep team. Memphis just hasn't been great in the bubble and are not the same team without Jaren Jackson Jr. Play the Celtics -5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Shakhtar Donetsk -108

*All soccer picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

15* SHARP PLAY on Diamondbacks vs Rockies under 11½ -106

I'll take my chances with the UNDER 11.5 in Monday's MLB action between the Rockies and Diamondbacks. Jon Gray will be on the mound for Colorado and he's been rock solid to start out 2020. Gray has a 3.30 ERA and 0.979 WHIP in 3 starts. Robbie Ray has struggled for the Dbacks, but we know the arm talent is there. The number here is simply too high. Play the UNDER 11.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on White Sox vs Tigers over 9 -106

I'll take my chances with the OVER (9) in Monday's AL Central showdown between the Tigers and White Sox. Ball should be carrying well with the heat index in the mid 90s to start this one. Chicago's offense figures to put up a big number. Michael Fulmer allowed 4 runs on 5 hits (3 HRs) in just 2.7 innings in his first start and that was against a bad Royals lineup. Dallas Keuchel has been solid for Chicago, but I could see him struggling some here. Play the OVER 9! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Mavs -2 -110

I'll take my chances here with the Mavs (-2) against the Jazz. There's a good chance both teams don't play some key guys. Utah is just 2-4 ATS in the bubble and I'm not sure they want to win. Jazz are No. 6 in the standings and would play No. 3 Denver in the first round. I would rather face the Nuggets than move up and play either the Rockets or the Thunder. Play Dallas -2! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Thunder vs Suns over 225 -110

I'll take my chances with the OVER (225) in Monday's early NBA action between the Suns/Thunder. I know the Thunder will be out some of their top guys, but they got enough depth to still be competitive on offense. They were without Adams in their last game and scored 121 with 18 made 3-pointers. Suns have been the talk of the bubble with their 5-0 start. They are winning games with their offense not defense. I see this getting into the 230s. Play the OVER 225! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Brisbane Roar +186

*All soccer picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

15* SHARP PLAY on Tigers +106

The Tigers (+106) are worth a look as a small dog against the Pirates in Sunday's MLB action. Simply put, Detroit is hitting too well to not take a shot on them at basically even money. After scoring 17 runs on 16 hits in a win on Friday, the Tigers had 11 runs on 16 hits Saturday. Steven Brault will start for Pittsburgh and while he's not allowed a run in his first two starts, he's only pitched a total of 5 innings. Tigers will have Spencer Turnbull on the mound who has a 2.45 ERA and 1.00 WHiP in his two starts, which have spanned 11 innings. Play Detroit +106! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Yankees vs Rays under 8½ -107

The UNDER (8.5) is worth a look in Sunday's AL East clash between the Rays and Yankees. I know James Paxton hasn't been good at all in his first two starts for New York, but we know the talent is there and the Rays come into this game having struggled to score. They have just 5 total runs in their last 3 games combined. Paxton also has a strong 3.19 ERA in 5 career starts against the Rays. Charlie Morton will go for Tampa Bay and he's gotten better with each start this season. He's had the Yankees number when he's not starting in New York. Play the UNDER 8.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Wizards vs Thunder under 225 -102

The UNDER (225) is worth a look in Sunday's NBA action between the Wizards and Thunder. Washington just doesn't have the fire-power offensively for a total of this magnitude. They come into this game having shot 43.6% or worse from the field in each of their last 3 games. They are scoring just 105.4 ppg in the bubble. Thing is, OKC hasn't been much better offensively, as they have shot 43%, 43%, and 35% in their last 3 games. Play the UNDER 225!

15* SHARP PLAY on Padres -157

The Padres (-157) are worth a look as a big home favorite against the Diamondbacks in Saturday's late night MLB action. San Diego took the opener on Friday 3-0 and now will have ace Chris Paddack on the mound. Paddack is 2-0 with a 2.65 ERA and 0.941 WHIP in his first 3 starts. He's also owned the Diamondbacks in his career with a 0.79 ERA and 0.883 WHIP in 4 starts. Play the Padres -157! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Tigers vs Pirates over 9 -112

The OVER (9) is worth a look in Saturday's MLB action between the Pirates and Tigers. These two are coming off an offensive explosion on Friday, as Detroit wound up winning 17-13. The two combined for 30 runs on 32 hits. I'm expecting more of the same. Ivan Nova goes for the Tigers and he's got a 4.22 ERA in 2 starts. Derek Holland brings a 4.76 ERA into this one for Pittsburgh. Play the OVER 9! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Blazers +4½ -105

I'll take my chances here with Portland (+4.5) to cover the spread in Saturday's NBA action against the Clippers. The Blazers have definitely been one of the more impressive teams in the bubble to this point. Portland is much better team now that they got two legit bigs in Collins and Nurkic to go along with their dynamic backcourt of Lillard and McCollum. Lillard is coming off a 45-point game against the Nuggets where he made 11 3-pointers. Clippers are just 1.5-games in front of Denver for the No. 2 seed, but there's really not a whole lot of difference in being the No. 2 or the No. 3 with no homecourt. I just feel like the Blazers are playing better and have a lot more incentive here to play well. Play Portland +4.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Clippers vs Blazers over 233½ -110

I'll take my chances with the OVER (233.5) on the total in Saturday's NBA action between the Blazers and Clippers. I just don't think the number here is high enough with the offensive fire-power that these two teams bring to the table. Clippers are averaging 117.0 ppg in the bubble and the Blazers are way up there at 124.8 ppg. LA has allowed 110+ in each of their last two and Portland is giving up almost as much as they are scoring in the bubble at 120.0 ppg. Play the OVER 233.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Shimizu S-Pulse +190

*All soccer picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

20* SHARP PLAY on Mariners +105

The Mariners (+105) are worth a look as they host the Rockies in Friday's MLB action. Rockies have been rolling to start 2020 at 9-3 overall, but this isn't a great spot back on the road for the first time after 7 straight at home. I also like Mariners' starter Yusei Kikuchi, who in his last start at home held the A's to just 3 hits with 9 K's in 6 shutout innings. Play the Mariners +105! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Celtics +3 +101

I'll take my chances with Boston (+3) as they get ready for a huge Eastern Conference showdown with the Raptors. There's a real good chance these two teams meet up in the second round of the playoffs, so I expect to see some nice intensity here. With that said, Boston does have a lot more to play for. Toronto is sitting pretty safe at the No. 2 seed. While the Celtics are No. 3, they are just 2.5 games up on Miami at No. 4. They do not want to fall back to No. 4. I also think they might be the better team. I at worst would have this at a pick'em. Play the Celtics +3! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Tigers -112

The Tigers (-112) are worth a look as they visiting the Pirates in Friday's MLB action. Clearly two of the worst teams facing in this series, but I feel there's reason to like Detroit. Tigers have a capable starting going in Matt Boyd, who is due for a strong outing after a couple poor outings. Pirates offense is definitely one he can keep in check. Pittsburgh is only averaging 2.5 runs/game against left-handed starters and are hitting .191 as a team on the season. Play the Tigers -112!

20* SHARP PLAY on Suns +3½ -109

The Suns +3.5 is worth a look in Thursday's NBA action. No one really thought much of this Suns team coming into the bubble, but they have been really impressive over their first 3 games. Phoenix has gone both 3-0 SU and 3-0 ATS. The last two being outright wins as a 5-point dog to the Mavs and as a 9.5-point dog to the Clippers. Pacers are also 3-0 SU and ATS, but they haven't really played anyone. Their best win is against a 76ers team that has looked awful in the bubble. The other two were against the Wizards and Magic. Play the Suns +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Twins vs Pirates over 9 -106

The OVER 9 is worth a look in Thursday's MLB matchup between the Twins and Pirates. While yesterday's game ended with just 7 runs, 6 of those 7 runs came in the 9th inning. I think we get a lot more action early on in this one. Minnesota could easily eclipse this number on their own with Pittsburgh starting a reliever in J.T. Brubaker. Play the OVER 9!

20* SHARP PLAY on Mariners +140

Seattle is worth a look as a +140 dog in Wednesday's MLB action. Mariners will be up against the Angels. While LA is coming in off a win, they have not won back-to-back games yet this season. They will also be sending out Julio Teheran for his first start. I expect some rust there and while it hasn't produced a ton of late, this Seattle offense can put up runs in bunches. Mariners also have a solid starter going in Marco Gonzales, who has a strong 2.53 ERA and 0.938 WHIP over his first two starts. Play the Mariners +140! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Twins vs Pirates over 8½ -116

The OVER 8.5 is worth a look in Wednesday's MLB action. I wouldn't be shocked if Minnesota eclipsed this total on their own. Twins are scoring 5.3 runs/game and averaged 9 runs/game in 3 road games against the White Sox (only road games this season). Pirates offense isn't great, but they have been better of their last two games, scoring 7 runs on 18 hits with 16 guys left on base. Play the OVER 8.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jazz -4 -106

The Jazz -4 is worth a look in tonight's NBA action. Utah will be squaring off against the Grizzlies. Memphis has been a major disappointment in the bubble. Grizzlies are 0-3 SU and 0-3 ATS. All 3 of those games coming against teams on the outside looking in the Western Conference. They now have just a 1.5-game lead over the Blazers for the No. 8 seed. I look for Utah to win this game rather easily. Play the Jazz -4! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Ilves -229

*All soccer picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

20* SHARP PLAY on Blazers +5 -110

The Blazers are worth a look at +5 against the Rockets in Tuesday's MLB action. While the Blazers come in off a loss at Boston, I couldn't have been more impressed with how this team rallied from being 20+ points down to take the lead. If Portland would have had this same roster to start the year they wouldn't even be sweating to make the playoffs right now. Houston is hit or miss and I believe a bit overvalued coming off a win against the Bucks to go to 2-0 in the restart. Play the Blazers +5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Indians vs Reds under 8 +102

The UNDER 8 is worth a look in Tuesday's MLB action between the Reds/Indians. I think we have the perfect storm for a low-scoring game. Cleveland's offense hasn't been able to get anything going in 2020. They come in having scored a whopping 6 runs over their last 6 games. The Reds Tyler Mahle is more than capable of shutting this offense down. Key here is Cincinnati also figures to struggle offensively against Indians starter Shane Bieber, who is off to a great start. He's 2-0 with a 0.00 ERA and 0.571 WHIP in 2 starts. Play the UNDER 8!

15* SHARP PLAY on Dodgers -131

This is just too good a price to pass up with the Dodgers at -131. LA will have one of the top young starters in the game going in Walker Buehler. I get he didn't have a great first start, but let's not overlook that was against a loaded Astros lineup. San Diego's Chris Paddack is the real deal, but he's struggled against the Dodgers with a 5.65 ERA in 3 starts. Play the Dodgers -131! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Braves +115

The Mets will have ace Jacob deGrom on the mound, but there is no clear-cut edge in starting pitching here. Atlanta's Mike Soroka is just as good. He's got a 1.59 ERA and 0.971 WHIP to start out 2020 and is 4-0 with a 2.27 ERA in 6 career starts against the Mets. Play the Braves +115! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies +3½ -105

I'll take the 3.5-points with Memphis in this one. I actually would have the Grizzlies favored. I just think the Pelicans are overvalued as long as Zion Williamson is on a minutes restriction. They blew a big lead in their first game back against the Jazz and then lost by 23 to the Clippers two days later. I get Memphis has also started out 0-2 in the bubble, but one was an OT loss to the Blazers and the other a 2-point setback to the Spurs. Play Memphis +3.5!

15* SHARP PLAY on Bucks -3½ -105

I got no problem laying the 3.5-points with Milwaukee against the Rockets. Bucks might not have a ton to play for in terms of the standings, as they all but have the No. 1 seed in the East locked up. However, they are still trying to get back to form after the long layoff and I just think they will be too much for the inconsistent Rockets. Houston won their first in the bubble restart, but that was more of a result of the Mavs collapsing down the stretch. I just don't think Houston's small-ball is going to work against this loaded Bucks team. Play Milwaukee -3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Spurs +3 -105

The Spurs are definitely worth a look as a small dog against the Grizzlies in Sunday's NBA action. San Antonio not only covered, but won outright 129-120 as a similarly priced 3.5-point dog against the Kings on Friday. Memphis on the other hand lost 135-140 in OT against the Blazers. I think we could see the Grizzlies have a tough time showing up with the energy needed to win this game. I really like the Spurs to win outright, but I'll gladly take the points for some added insurance. Play San Antonio +3! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Coyotes vs Predators over 5½ +114

*All NHL picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

20* SHARP PLAY on Rays -179

Tampa Bay should have no problem putting their 4-game losing streak to rest with an easy win over the Orioles on Sunday. Rays haven't been able to get much going offensively here of late, but that should change in this one. Tampa Bay will be up against Orioles' starter Tommy Milone, who lasted just 3 innings in his first start of 2020. Milone gave up 4 runs on 4 hits and 3 walks in a 13-2 loss at Boston. Yonny Chirinos will go for the Rays and he didn't give up an earned run in 4 innings of a 5-2 win against the Braves in his first start. In Chirinos two starts against the Orioles in 2019, he allowed just 5 runs in 14.3 innings of work. Play Tampa Bay -179! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Sarpsborg 08 -139

*All soccer picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

15* SHARP PLAY on Lakers -4 -102

I think the perception here is that the Lakers are going to have a letdown against Toronto after playing that big game against rival Clippers on Thursday. I just don't think that's as big a factor given the circumstances here with the bubble. There's clearly no travel for games and a day off, should be more than enough to have LA ready to roll in this one. As for the Raptors, I think we could see them take a bit to get going in their first game. Play the Lakers -4! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Yankees -201

I'm laying the big money on the Yankees, as I look for New York to have zero problem securing a win at home against the Red Sox on Saturday. Yankees took the series opener 5-1 on Friday. That's now 6 out of Boston's last 7 games where their pitching staff has allowed at least 5 runs. They just don't have the arms to keep this high-powered New York lineup in check. I certainly don't think starter Zack Godley will do the trick. Look for a short but effective outing from Yankees' Masahiro Tanaka and a easy win. Play New York -201! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jazz vs Thunder under 212 -110

I'm expecting a very low-scoring game here between the Jazz and Thunder. These are two of the better defensive teams in the league and while we have yet to see OKC in the new bubble, Utah just played a game on Thursday against a fast-paced and high-powered Pelicans offense that ended up with a total of just 210. This is also a big game for both teams as Utah is 4th in the west, just 2 games back of the Clippers for the No. 2 seed. They are also just 1.5-games ahead of OKC, who is currently the No. 6 seed. Play the UNDER 212!

20* SHARP PLAY on Rays vs Orioles under 10 -114

The books have missed the mark here with the total for Friday's MLB matchup between the Orioles and Rays. I just don't see either offense being able to get going with today's pitching matchup of Blake Snell and Alex Cobb. Snell only pitched 2 innings in his first start, but should be able to go deeper here. He didn't give up a run in those 2 innings and 5 of the 6 outs he recorded were via strikeout. Rays also have a very strong bullpen. Cobb was really sharp in his first start. He allowed just 1 run on 4 hits with 6 K's in 5.3 innings at Boston. I really think we could see Cobb return to his old form this year. Play the UNDER 10! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Red Sox vs Yankees under 11 -114

As difficult as it may be to play the UNDER with how bad Boston starter Ryan Weber was in his first start and the fact that he's going up against a loaded Yankees lineup, there's just too much value with the total sitting at 11 to not take a shot on the UNDER in this one. Play the UNDER 11! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies +2 -101

There's a ton of hype on Portland coming into the NBA restart and I think it's going to have a lot of people jumping on the Blazers as a small favorite here. I'm just not one of them. Portland should have a solid starting 5, but they don't have great depth. I also think it could take a bit for the likes of Nurkic and Collins to get back in form. I like Morant and the Grizzlies to win this game and really put a tight hold on that 8th and final spot in the Western Conference. Play the Grizzlies +2! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Nets +7 -108

This is just too good a price to pass up on the Nets at +7 against the Magic. Brooklyn does have a number of guys sitting out either due to injury or because of covid, but that doesn't mean they are going to just lie down. I feel they got more than enough talent to not only cover this number but win the game outright. Play the Nets +7! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jiangsu Guoxin-Sainty +138

*All golf picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

15* SHARP PLAY on Royals vs Tigers under 10 -100

The UNDER 10 is definitely worth a look in Thursday's AL Central matchup between the Tigers and Royals. I get this isn't the most enticing starting pitching matchup with KC's Brady Singer going up against Detroit's Ivan Nova, but both completed 5 innings in their first start. Singer allowed just 2 runs at Cleveland and Nova gave up 3 at Cincinnati. The big key here is these are two teams that are going to struggle at the plate. Royals are hitting just .209 as a team early on and Detroit is even worse at .198. Play the UNDER 10! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Rays vs Braves over 8½ -116

The OVER 8.5 is worth a shot in Thursday's MLB matchup between the Braves and Rays. Both of these teams are capable of eclipsing this mark on their own. Tampa Bay is averaging 6.2 runs/game and haven't scored fewer than 4 in any game in 2020. Atlanta is averaging 5.5 and that's with them getting shutout in their opener. They have scored 5 or more in 4 of their last 5 and are scoring 7.0 runs/game at home. Play the OVER 8.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jazz vs Pelicans over 221 -106

Easy play here on the OVER 221 in Thursday's NBA matchup between the Pelicans and Jazz. All signs point to New Orleans having Zion for this one and even if he doesn't play, there's still a great shot this goes over. Pelicans rank 2nd in the NBA in pace of play, while sitting in the bottom half of the league in defensive efficiency. Utah is 6th in the NBA in offensive efficiency. I see this one easily approaching 225 and likely into the 230's. Play the OVER 221!

20* SHARP PLAY on Cubs vs Reds over 9 -111

Most are going to be quick to take the UNDER in Wednesday's NL Central clash between the Cubs and Reds, as you got two starters going that were really good in their first start of 2020. Kyle Hendricks threw a complete game shutout for Chicago, while Sonny Gray gave up just 1 run on 3 hits in 6 innings. However, Hendricks first start came at home and he was a completely different pitcher on the road than he was at home in 2020. Gray's first start came against a bad Tigers offense and now must face a red-hot Cubs offense that has scored 25 runs over their last 3 games. It's also worth pointing out that the heat index will be in the mid 90s, so both starters could fatigue early. Play the OVER 9! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Nationals vs Blue Jays under 8½ +104

Easy play here on the UNDER 8.5 in Wednesday's matchup between the Blue Jays and Nationals. It wasn't the best first start of the season for Washington's Max Scherzer, but it was against a loaded Yankees lineup. The fact that he was able to strikeout 11 guys in just 5 1/3 innings tells me he's primed for a much better start here. As for Toronto, they send out one of their top prospects in Nate Pearson, who is more than ready for this stage. You also have to factor in just how bad Washington has been offensively early on. Nationals have scored 2 or fewer runs in 4 of their first 5 games. Play the UNDER 8.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Rays -133

The Rays are my strongest MLB play for Tuesday. Tampa Bay has now won 3 straight since dropping their opener. They kicked off their series with Atlanta on Monday and put up 14 runs on the Braves. I look for the Rays to stay hot against Atlanta's Kyle Wright, who has a 7.71 ERA and 1.83 WHIP over his first two seasons at the big league level. Tampa Bay will counter with Yonny Chirinos, who posted a solid 3.85 ERA and a very strong 1.05 WHIP in 26 appearances (18 starts) last year. It's also worth noting that the Rays have been a strong bet off a big offensive showing, as they are 21-5 in their last 26 at home after scoring 8 or more runs in their previous game. Play on the Rays -133! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Blue Jays vs Nationals under 10½ -106

The UNDER is definitely worth a shot here at 10.5 in Tuesday's MLB action between the Nationals and Blue Jays. This is a much better pitching matchup than most would think. Washington's Austin Voth is not a household name, but in 9 appearance, 8 starts, he posted a 3.30 ERA and 1.05 WHIP in 2019. Toronto will counter with former Nationals starter Tanner Roark, who you know is going to be motivated for this start. Also a big plus for Roark is he's facing a Washington lineup that no longer has slugger Anthony Rendon and is missing their best bat of 2020 in Juan Soto. Play the UNDER 10.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Brewers -128

Easy play here on Milwaukee as a small road favorite against the Pirates. Brewers are going to be 100% locked in for their opener at Pittsburgh after dropping 2 of 3 on the road against the Cubs to start the season. No question that Milwaukee has the better offense of the two. On top of that they have the edge on the mound in this one with Adrian Houser going up against Steven Brault. Houser should have no problem keeping the Pirates offense in check, while Brault could struggle to stick around long in this one. Play on the Brewers -128!
