Washington State @ Wyoming 3:30 PM ET

Game# 205-206

Play On: Under 47.0 (5*)

Wyoming has the advantage of having played a game already while this will be the season opener for Washington State. The Cowboys were impressive in a 29-7 win at New Mexico State last Saturday and easily covered as a closing 6.0-point road favorite. The experienced Cowboys defense which allowed just 17 points per game in 2017 pickup up just where they left off by turning in a dominating performance in that season opening win. Wyoming held New Mexico State to a mere 135 yards of total offense. Speaking of experience, the Cowboys return 17 starters from a team that went 8-5 last season.

Although Wyoming’s offense put up more than respectable numbers last week, they’ll face a sterner test from a defense that plays in a “Power 5 Conference”. I also look for the usually explosive Washington State offense to regress a bit due to lack of experience and will especially be the case early in their 2018 campaign.

Any home team playing in their first 2 games of the season with a total of 42.5 to 49.0, and they return 17 or more starters from a season ago, versus a non-conference opponent (Washington State), resulted in those contests going 25-5 (83.3%) under the total since 1992. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Carolina @ Pittsburgh 7:30 PM ET

Game# 113-114

Play On: Under 37.0 (5*)

The final week of the preseason historically has produced lower scoring games. Thus, the low posted totals on a majority of Thursday’s 16-game card. Furthermore, Carolina has gone a perfect 6-0 under the total in the last 6 years when playing in their 4th preseason game. Additionally, Pittsburgh has gone 5-1 under the total during the past 6 preseasons in their 4th games. Pittsburgh’s Mike Tomlin and Carolina’s Ron Rivera were the head coaches of their teams during those previously mentioned results. Those who’ve followed me over the years know I put an emphasis on NFL head coaching philosophies as it applies to NFL Preseason handicapping.

Pittsburgh is coming off a 16-6 win against Tennessee last week and they covered as a 4.0-point home favorite. Carolina enters their final preseason game having gone a perfect 3-0 SU&ATS during its first 3 contests. The combination of these results sets up an extremely successful NFL preseason betting angle illustrated below.

Any team (Pittsburgh) coming off 1 or more ATS wins in a row, and they scored 12 points or more in their previous game, versus an opponent (Carolina) coming off 2 or more ATS wins in a row, resulted in those games going 25-1 (96.2%) under the total since 2015.

Play On: Over 9.0 (5*)

Both teams have impressive slugging percentage during each of their previous 7 games. During that time frame, Washington’s team slugging percentage is .430 and Philadelphia’s is an even better .459. Throughout that same identical 7-game stretch both bullpens have been very shaky with Washington’s staff ERA being a lofty 5.02 while Philadelphia is at a sizable 7.02. Both starting pitchers have struggled in their recent outings. Steven Strasburg of Washington has compiled a mammoth 11.81 ERA and 2.16 WHIP during his previous 3 starts. Philadelphia’s Zach Eflin has collected a large 8.10 ERA and 2.20 WHIP thru his last 2 starts. Bet on this game to go over the total for a 5* wager.

Since the 2014 NFL preseason, any team (Tampa Bay) coming off a game during which they committed no turnovers, and they’re facing an opponent (Lions) that’s gone 2 straight contests having committed 1 or fewer turnovers, resulted in those games going 28-5 (84.8%) under the total since 2014. The average total in those 33 games was 41.0, and there were 34.4 points scored per contest. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Game# 959-960

Play On: Under 10.5 (10*)

Miles Mikolas has exhibited very good form during his last 4 starts by posting a stellar 2.67 ERA and 0.89 WHIP. During his lone start against Colorado this season Mikolas allowed only 1 earned runs in 7.0 innings of work. St. Louis has been red-hot over the past 2 weeks, but it certainly hasn’t been due to their offensive prowess of late. The Cardinals have a compiled a poor .205 team batting average and .669 OPS throughout their previous 7 games. However, they’ve allowed only 2 runs per game during their last 4 outings. The St. Louis bullpen has recorded an excellent 1.61 ERA thru its past 7 games.

Early betting patterns on this game have seen an enormously high number of wagers being placed on going over the total. A majority of that has been influenced by who today’s home plate umpire is slated to be. Since 2016, David Rackley has developed a reputation for being a very hitter-friendly umpire. However, I’m not on board with using Rackley’s recent tendencies to take for granted that this game will automatically being a high scoring affair. Especially so without weighing in any other contributing factors.

Since 2016, Atlanta’s Julio Teheran has made 3 dominating starts against Pittsburgh. During those trio of outings, Teheran allowed 0 earned runs in 20 2/3 innings pitched. Teheran has also exhibited very good form in his last 3 overall starts while posting a 2.89 ERA and 0.96 WHIP. Atlanta has seen 6 of its last 7 games go under the total and that includes each of their previous 4.

Pittsburgh’s Trevor Williams has witnessed each of his previous 6 starts go under the total. During that stretch, Williams compiled a brilliant 0.79 ERA. The Pirates bats have been extremely silent over their last 6 games. Pittsburgh was shutout on 3 of those 6 occasions, scored a combined 6 runs total, and all those games stayed under the total. Conversely, the Pirates have allowed exactly 1 runs in 5 of those past 6 games. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

The Cleveland bullpen has been very good thru their previous 7 games in gathering a combined 1.77 ERA. Since 2016, Cleveland is 31-13 (70.5%) under the total when facing AL East teams on the road.

Whether it be as a member of the Rays or Red Sox Nathan Eovaldi has been magnificent over his last 4 home starts. During that stretch, Boston’s right-handed hurler has posted a microscopic 0.33 ERA while striking out 26 and walking only 3. He also pitched at least 7.0 innings in 3 of those previous 4 home starts. The Red Sox bullpen has been stellar all season and they’ve compiled a very good 2.53 ERA throughout its last 7 games. The usually high-powered Boston offense has been held in check of late. During their last 7 outings, Boston has averaged just 3.7 runs scored per game and collected a poor .661 OPS.

If those teams were playing in an away game and they allowed 24 points or fewer in their previous contest, it resulted in those outings going a perfect 15-0 under the total since 2014.

The Yankees have gone 23-5 under the total during their last 28 games. The Yankees ace Luis Severino has been magnificent all season long. He’s made 2 starts against Toronto in 2018 and had a microscopic 0.71 ERA during those outings. Severino is also a perfect 7-0 with his team starts this year during day games with and compiled a brilliant 1.51 ERA while doing so. The Yankees right-hander has collected an extremely impressive 0.99 ERA during his last 4 starts overall.

Since 2016, J.A. Happ of Toronto is 6-2 in his team starts against the Yankees with a stellar 2.16 ERA. Toronto has gone over the total in just 9 of 33 games this season when facing AL East opponents and that includes 6-1 under at home against New York.

Yankees (Gray) @ Blue Jays (Gaviglio) 7:07 PM ET

Game# 963-964

Play On: Under 9.5 (10*)

Despite his overall numbers being extremely disappointing, the Yankees Sonny Gray has been more than respectable during his starts on the road. Gray is compiled a solid 3.28 ERA and 1.14 WHIP thru 8 road starts in 2018. Gray has also gone 8-0 under the total in his career starts on the road when they transpired in July. Since the calendar year turned to June, the Yankees have owned the most dominant bullpen in baseball. The Yankees are 22-5 under in their last 27 outings and that includes 12-1 under during its previous 13 road games.

The Blue Jays Sam Gaviglio has posted a very good 1.93 ERA in 4 home starts this season. Friday will be the 7th game played already this season at the Rogers Centre in Toronto between the Yankees and Blue Jays. Thus far, 5 of the first 6 played went under the total.

These 2 starting pitchers squared off against one another exactly one month to the day in Toronto. They combined to allow 0 earned runs on 5 hits in 15.0 innings of work. I’m looking for more of the same in today’s game. Considering the high total in this AL East Divisional battle, there’s a plethora of betting value on going under the total. That’s precisely what I will be wagering on for a 10* Top Play wager.

Cleveland (Plutko) @ Oakland (Jackson) 4:05 PM ET

Game# 967-968

Play On: Under 9.5 (5*)

Cleveland is coming off last night’s 3-1 loss at Oakland. The defeat dropped their season record to 44-36 (.550). The Indians will be facing an Oakland team which is 45-38 during their 2018 MLB campaign. The combination of this data sets up an extremely profitable MLB totals betting angle which is illustrated below.

Any team (Cleveland) with a total of 9.0 to 9.5 that’s revenging a loss in which they scored 1 run or less, and they own a win percentage of .540 to .620 and is facing an opponent (Oakland) with a winning record, resulted in those games going 48-11 (81.4%) under the total since 2014. As a matter of fact, this exact betting angle is 6-1 under the total in 2018. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Twins (Gibson) @ White Sox (Shields) 8:10 PM ET

Game# 919-920

Play On: Under 9.0 (5*)

Minnesota’s Kyle Gibson has shown exemplary form during his last 5 starts by posting a terrific 1.93 ERA during that stretch. Gibson has made 7 road starts this season and has very good in collecting a 2.00 ERA and 0.91 WHIP throughout those outings. The White Sox James Shields has held his own this season after having a horrendous 2017 campaign. Shields has been in good form over his last 3 starts while gathering a 3.06 ERA and 1.19 WHIP. Neither one of these teams have hit with any resemblance of consistency in 2018. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Yankees (Cessa) @ Phillies (Eflin) 7:05 PM ET

Game# 923-924

Play On: Under 8.5 (5*)

Philadelphia’s Zach Eflin has been very good thru his previous 4 starts by amassing a stellar 2.28 EERA and holding opposition batters to a mere .594 OPS. The Yankees are hoping to get 65 to 70 pitches out of tonight’s starter Luis Cessa then turn it over to their elite bullpen. As a matter of fact, Yankees relievers have a combined 1.71 ERA throughout their last 7 games. New York has also gone a remarkable 19-2 under the total during its previous 21 games played. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Yankees (Loaisiga) @ Phillies (Velazquez) 7:05 PM ET

Game# 915-916

Play On: Over 8.5 (5*)

The Yankees Jonathan Loaisiga has made his first 2 MLB career starts recently and had an uninspiring 1.73 WHIP during those outings. His pitching adversary on Monday will be Vincent Velazquez of the Phillies. Velazquez has posted a terrible 8.64 ERA during his last 3 starts and all those games went over the total. Velazquez is also 6-2 over the total at home this season with a sizable 6.70 ERA while allowing an alarming 10 home runs in just 41 2/3 innings pitched.

Yankees (Gray) @ Rays (Font) 4:10 PM ET

Game# 919-920

Play On: Under 8.0 (5*)

Sonny Gray has seen each of his last 3 road starts go under the total. Gray’s 1.42 ERA and 0.79 WHIP during that time certainly played a major role in those low scoring affairs. Despite all the offensive firepower New York possesses, they’ve gone 16-1 under the total in their previous 17 games. The Yankees starting pitching and bullpen have been dominant during that stretch.

Tampa Bay has gone 9-1 under the total during its last 10 and averaged a pathetic 2.1 runs scored per game. The Rays pitching by committee has certainly been effective and its bullpen has performed extremely well at home in 2018. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Cardinals (Flaherty) @ Brewers (Guerra) 8:10 PM ET

Game# 959-960

Play On: Under 8.5 (5*)

Milwaukee’s Junior Guerra has exhibited very good form during his previous 4 starts while posting a 2.70 ERA and 1.11 WHIP. Guerra has started 2 games against St. Louis this season and compiled a dominating 0.79 ERA. Milwaukee is 16-5 under the total in 2018 when facing a pitcher that issues 1.75 or less walks per start.

New York has gone under the total in 15 of its last 16 games played.

Tampa Bay has seen 8 of their previous 9 games stay under the total. During its last 7, the Rays are averaging just 2.1 runs scored and 6.0 hits per game.

Play On: Under 9.5 (5*)

Boston has gone under the total in 6 straight home games.

Wright has faced Boston once this season and allowed just 1 earned run on 5 hits while walking 2 during 7.0 innings of work. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Since 2016, they’ve gone 16-4 (80%) under the total when facing a team with a win percentage of .620 or better. Los Angeles has also gone 9-2 under the total during its last 11 games.

Cleveland (Clevinger) @ Detroit (Fiers) 4:10 PM ET

Game# 923-924

Play On: Under 9.5 (5*)

Mike Clevinger will be making his first start of the season against Detroit. The right-handed Indians hurler was 4-0 against the Tigers in 2017 while posting a dominating 0.76 ERA.

Las Vegas @ Washington 8:05 PM ET

Game# 7-8

Play On: Under 5.5 (10*)

Since 1996, Game 4 of a Stanley Cup Finals series have gone 13-3-7 under the total. Putting those totals stats into perspective, only 13% of those 23 games went over the number.

The last 2 games of this series have gone under the total. Las Vegas is 10-2 under the total in road games this season following unders in each of their previous 2 games. Vegas has also gone 5-0-1 under the total in their last 6 road games during this postseason. Conversely, Washington has seen just 1 of their last 7 home games go over the total.

Vegas goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury was brilliants during the Golden Knights first rounds of the 2018 NHL Playoffs. However, he’s been ordinary at best in the first 3 games of the Stanley Cup Finals. Nevertheless, Fleury still maintains an excellent .935 save percentage thru 29 road starts this season. Meanwhile, Braden Holtby has been terrific in Washington’s Game 2 and 3 wins while posting a sparkling .951 save percentage. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Cleveland @ Golden State 8:05 PM ET

Game# 503-504

Play On: Under 215.0 (5*)

The only reason Game 1 of these 2018 NBA Finals went over the total is because it went overtime. That over broke a string of 4 consecutive road unders for Cleveland and 4 consecutive home unders for Golden State. Furthermore, Cleveland has gone under the total in 4 straight postseason contests following an over in their previous outing, and there was a combined average of 186.0 points scored per game. Lebron James scored 49 of Cleveland’s 107 points during regulation time in Game 1. Putting that feat into proper perspective, James scored a mind boggling 45.8% of the Cavaliers points during regulation time and that’s highly unlikely to occur again tonight. As a matter of fact, James particularly benefitted from his team’s 19 offensive rebounds which created multiple offensive possessions. Once again, that’s also highly doubtful to transpire in 2 straight games against a team the caliber of Golden State. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Las Vegas @ Washington 8:05 PM ET

Game# 5-6

Play On: Under 5.5 (5*)

The Las Vegas Golden Knights have gone a terrific 6-2 on the road during their impressive postseason run. They’ve seen just 1 of those 8 away games go over the total, and twice held their opponents scoreless.

The Washington Capitals have gone an outstanding 9-3 on the road during these 2018 NHL Playoffs. On the negative side of things, they’re an uninspiring 4-5 on home ice. Washington has gone over the total just once in their last 6 games at home. Play on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Red Sox (Price) @ Astros (Verlander) 7:15 PM ET

Game# 973-974

Play On: Under 7.5 (10*)

You just can’t pitch any better than Justin Verlander has this season. Verlander has seen 10 of his 12 starts go under the total and his superb 1.11 ERA during those outings had much to do with those low scoring affairs. As a matter of fact, each of Verlander’s last 3 starts have gone under the total. The veteran right-hander has been virtually untouchable thru his last 3 starts while compiling a brilliant 0.83 ERA and 0.69 WHIP. Verlander has made 7 starts against Boston since 2015 and collected a sparkling 1.64 ERA in those appearances. Houston is also 19-9-1 under the total at home this season.

Boston’s David Price continues to be one of the top pitchers in baseball. The southpaw hurler has gathered a more than respectable 2.95 ERA during 3 starts against Houston since 2015. Price has displayed very good form throughout his previous 3 starts while collecting a 2.25 ERA and 0.95 WHIP. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 10* Top Play wager.

Texas (Colon) @ LA Angels (Barria) 10:07 PM ET

Game# 925-926

Play On: Under 8.5 (5*)

The Angels Jaime Barria has compiled a sparkling 2.70 ERA and 0.99 WHIP throughout his last 4 starts. He’s made 1 starts against Texas this season and allowed just 1 earned run on 1 hit while walking 3 in 5.0 innings of work. The Rangers bullpen has collected an excellent 1.25 ERA during their last 7 games. The Rangers ageless veteran Bartolo Colon has been terrific in 4 starts this season while gathering a 1.59 ERA and 0.71 WHIP during those outings. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Cleveland (Carrasco) @ Minnesota (Berrios) 8:10 PM ET

Game# 921-922

Play On: Under 8.5 (5*)

Carlos Carrasco has made 4 starts against Minnesota since 2017 and had a terrific 0.67 ERA in those outings. Carrasco also has recorded a shiny 2.91 ERA and 0.97 WHIP during 6 road starts in 2018.

Jose Berrios of Minnesota has a brilliant 0.61 ERA and 0.41 WHIP in his 2 starts against Cleveland since 2017. Berrios has shown very good form throughout his last 3 starts while generating a 1.99 ERA and 0.75 WHIP. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Cleveland @ Golden State 9:05 PM ET

Game# 501-502

Play On: Under 215.0 (5*)

Cleveland is coming off a Game 7 Eastern Conference Finals 87-79 win at Boston. That game easily went under the closing total of 196.5. The Cavaliers saw all 4 of their road games go under during the Eastern Conference finals and there was a combined average of 184.3 points scored per contest. The Cavaliers enter these 2018 NBA Finals with a season win percentage of .620.

Golden State enters the 2018 NBA Finals with a superb season win percentage of .707. They’ve gone under in 5 straight and 9 of its last 10 games. The Warriors held Houston to 98 points or less during the last 5 games of their Western Conference Finals series versus Houston. Putting that impressive defensive 5-game stretch into perspective, Houston has been held to less than 100 points scored in just 8 of their first 94 games of the season. They also held Houston to a combined 39.2% shooting during that 5-game span.

Any NBA team (Cleveland) that went under the total by 30 points or more in their previous game, and they own a win percentage of .600 to .750, versus an opponent (Golden State) with a winning record, resulted in those teams going 28-7 (80%) under the total since 1996. Those 35 games had an average total of 217.5 and there were a combined 204.7 points scored per contest. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Golden State @ Houston 9:05 PM ET

Game# 511-512

Play On: Under 208.0 (5*)

The first 3 games of this series had totals ranging from 225.0 to 226.0. The odds-makers have surely made a drastic adjustment in that regard. The last 4 games of this series have gone under the total and there was just a combined average of 197.8 points scored per game. Golden State gets a lot of accolades for their explosive offensive ability and rightfully so. Nevertheless, they’re a vastly underrated defensive team. They’ve held Houston to 91.0 points scored per contest and 39.0% shooting over the past 4 games of this Western Conference Finals. Houston has gone under the total in 5 straight this season when tabbed as an underdog like they’ll be tonight, and they scored just 93.0 points per game while shooting a poor 40.8%. I look for both teams to be extremely cognizant of their defensive play in this win or go home Game 7. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Texas (Fister) @ Seattle (Gonzalez) 4:10 ET

Game# 925-926

Play On: Under 8.0 (5*)

Texas starter Doug Foster has an outstanding 1.35 ERA during his last 3 road starts. Fister will be facing a Seattle team which averages 4.4 runs scored per game. The Veteran right-hander is 24-9 (72.7%) under the total in his career when facing an American League team that averages 4.4 or less runs scored per game. The Rangers bullpen has been significantly better on the road than at home while posting a stellar staff ERA of 2.82 ERA in away games.

Seattle’s southpaw hurler Marco Gonzalez has been terrific during his previous 2 starts while allowing 0 earned runs on just 7 hits and walking only 3. Gonzalez also has a shiny 2.79 ERA through 5 road starts in 2018. He’ll have the comfort in knowing that the Mariners bullpen as gathered a miniscule 0.43 ERA over its last 7 games. Seattle has gone 7-1 during their previous 8 games. They’ve gone 7-0 under the total this season after winning 6 or 7 of their previous 8 and there were just a combined 5.0 runs scored per game. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Angels (Skaggs) @ Tigers (Boyd) 1:10 PM ET

Game# 919-920

Los Angeles is also 34-17 under the total in day games during the past 2 seasons. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Houston @ Golden State 9:05 PM ET

Game# 509-510

Play On: Under 213.0 (5*)

The last 3 games of this series have all gone under the total and there were a combined 196.7 points scored per contest. What really jumps out at me is Houston poor offensive efficiency throughout those last 3 games, yet, they came out victorious in each of the previous 2 contests. That just shows you how well the Rockets performed defensively in those 2 games against arguably the most prolific offensive team in the NBA. Houston has gone under the total in each of their previous 4 road playoff games and there were a combined 197.5 points scored per contest.

Meanwhile, Golden State has seen 7 of their last 8 games go under the total. The Warriors have held Houston to just 92.7 points per contest while forcing them to shoot 39.5% or worse during the last 3 games of this series. They also limited the Rockets to a mere 78.7 field goal attempts per game during that stretch which is well below the NBA average. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Angels (Barria) @ Yankees (Gray) 7:15 PM ET

Game# 919-920

Play On: Under 10.0 (5*)

The Angels Jaime Barria has made 5 starts this season and compiled a sparkling 2.13 ERA and 1.02 WHIP during those outings. He’s displayed excellent form during his previous 3 starts which is indicated by a 1.47 ERA and 0.83 WHIP in that span. The Angels bullpen has a stellar 2.57 ERA thru its previous 7 games. Barria doesn’t figure to get much run support from his teammates since they have a cumulative .212 batting average in addition to their poor .670 OPS over the last 7 games. At the time of this writing, the Angels are a money line underdog of +145 in this game. The Angels are 10-2 (83.3%) under the total this season as a money line underdog of +100 or greater. Furthermore, the Angels haven’t gone over the total in any of their last 6 games.

After a rough start to the season, the Yankees Sonny Gray has shown signs of regaining the form he displayed back in his days with the Oakland A’s. Gray went 8.0 innings in his previous start against Kansas City where he allowed just 1 earned run on 4 hits while walking only 1 during 8.0 innings of work. The Yankees bullpen has a combined 2.57 ERA throughout their previous 7 games.

The home plate umpire for today’s game is slated to be Phil Cuzzi. The games in which Cuzzi has been the home plate umpire in 2018 have gone 6-1 (85.7%) under the total. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Golden State @ Houston 9:05 PM ET

Game# 507-508

Play On: Under 219.5 (5*)

The current point-spread posted at BetOnline indicates Houston is a 1.0-point favorite. Houston has gone 13-2 (86.7%) under the total this season during games in which their point-spread was +3.0 to -3.0. Those 15 contests had a combined average of 207.5 points scored per game. Furthermore, 3 of the 4 games in these Western Conference Finals have stayed under the total. Golden State is 6-1 under the total in their last 7 games played. Since the 2015-2016 season began, 7 of the 10 games played in Houston between these teams have gone under the total.

Houston won 95-92 at Golden State on Tuesday and that game easily stayed under the total of 227.5 by an enormous 40.5-points. Any NBA team (Golden State) with a total of 210.0 or more, and they have a win percentage of .600 to .750, versus an opponent (Houston) that owns a winning record, resulted in those games going 27-7 (79.4%) under the total since 1996. The average total in those 34 contests was 217.4 and there were a combined 205.0 points scored per game. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager.

Washington @ Tampa Bay 7:15 PM ET

Game# 5-6

Play On: Under 6.0 (5*)

Recent history has proven that John Cooper’s Tampa Bay teams play it close to the vest when tied in a playoff series, and it usually results in low scoring affairs. They’ve only been in one of those situations this season, and it came in Game 3 at Boston during the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
