Calgary Stampeders. MVP. Game 717. 6:00 PM PST/9:00 PM EST. As of posting this play, most of the money is coming in on the favorite. As you well know, I have made a very successful career of going against the general public. I feel this is way too many points to give a team that has taken five of the last seven meetings in this rivalry, both straight up and against the spread. Calgary also enters this matchup winning and covering four of their five outings this season. I am aware Saskatchewan has won and covered all four of their contests thus far in 2025. But this seems like way too many points to give. The Stampeders defense has been very good this season. As a matter of fact, they've been better than the Roughriders stop-unit. Both offenses are loaded with playmakers. So, I believe this game is going to come down to defense, which certainly gives Calgary an edge. Take the points with the underdog. Take the Stampeders. Thank you. |

Atlanta Dream. MONEYMAKER. Game 613. 4:30 PM PST/7:30 PM EST. The Atlanta dream has had their way with the Indiana Fever this season, winning and covering two of three meetings with them, one at home and one on the road. This is a team that's played some very good basketball, tallying a 12-7 overall record, covering 11 of those 19 outings. They enter this matchup winning two of their last three games, both straight up and against the spread, while Indiana is on a two-game loss and no cover slide. They should've won both of those games at home against Los Angeles, and Golden State. They were favored in both, and lost outright in both. I feel the Dream is coming in here a little hotter, and have a psychological edge knowing they have handled this rivalry very well. I think giving them points is a mistake. Take Atlanta. Thank you. |

Philadelphia Phillies. HOME RUN. Game 907. 6:40 PM PST/9:40 PM EST. There is no question the Phillies are playing some solid baseball. With just a few games left before the break, they currently possess a 1.5-game lead in the competitive National League East, with the Mets just over their shoulder. They have dominated the Padres, taking eight of the last 10 meetings, which does include two of three in 2025. They are a solid road team, score more offensively, and have a better overall pitching staff than their opponent does. Speaking of which, Ranger Suarez has been money, yielding two or less runs in nine consecutive outings. Overall, on the campaign he is 7-2 with a 1.99 ERA. Ryan Bergert is 1-0 with a 2.67 ERA. But his allowed quite a few runs in two of his last three outings. The Padres lineup have not been explosive, accounting for more than four runs just once over their last 10 contests. The better and more consistent offense belongs to the visitor here. Take Philadelphia. Thank you. |

Toronto Blue Jays. DOUBLE PLAY. Game 919. 7:05 PM PST/10:05 PM EST. With the Yankees winning four games in a row, and sitting just over their shoulder, 2.0-games back in the AL East, the Blue Jays need to keep their foot on the gas. What better team to face than the Athletics. Toronto enters this matchup suffering their first loss after a 10-game win streak. I look for them to bounce back here with a vengeance, and take out their frustrations from that defeat against the lowly Athletics, which possess one of the worst records in the American League (39-56), and dwell in the West cellar, 17.0-games back. They also happen to be the worst home team in the AL as well, going just 18-30 at Sutter Health Park this season. Toronto, has an opportunity to reach the .500 mark on the road this season, as they are currently 22-23 as a guest. They have taken all four meetings in this rivalry this season, and going back a bit, seven of the last nine overall matchups. Max Scherzer has been more consistent than Luis Severino. The Blue Jays have won Scherzer's last two starts, while the Athletics have dropped Severino's last four turns. Take Toronto. Thank you. |

Milwaukee Brewers. Grand Slam. Game 904. 5:10 PM PST/8:10 PM EST. Milwaukee is looking to catch Chicago for the top spot and the NL Central. They currently sit just 2.0-games back in the division (53-40), winning four in a row, and six of their last 10 outings They face a Washington opponent that dwells in the cellar of the NL East, 16.0-games back, at 38-55. The Nationals are struggling, dropping five of their last six outings, while the Brewers are running hot. Their current win streak does include a three-game sweep of the Dodgers. Very simply, they score more, and allow less. Mitchell Parker is getting shelled. As a matter of fact, the team has dropped six of his last eight starts. Quinn Priester is on fire, not dropping a game since May 13. As a matter of fact, the team has won seven consecutive outings when he is on the mound. This game will get out of hand. I know the price is high. But a win is a win. Take Milwaukee. Thank you. |

Tigers -113 at betonline |
Lost $113.0 |
Play Type: Premium | ||
Detroit Tigers. Game 962. 10:10 AM PST/1:10 PM EST. Of all of baseball's current division leaders, the Detroit Tigers possess the largest lead at 12.5-games. There's only a couple of games remaining before All-Star Break. Trust me when I tell you the Tigers will not take the last few games before the midway point of the regular season lightly. They dropped their last two outings following a five-game win streak. They know that momentum plays a big part of the second half of the regular season. They will turn things around, and get a big victory here over Seattle Mariners opponent that got their first win yesterday following a three-game sweep at the hands of the New York Yankees. Detroit scores more, and allows less. Starters are scheduled to be George Kirby and Casey Mize. Despite pitching well lately, the Mariners right-hander is just 3-4 with a 4.22 ERA on the campaign. He has struggled against the Tigers, going 1-4 with a 7.54 ERA in five career starts against them. The Detroit right-hander is 9-2 with a 2.63 ERA on the campaign. In three career starts against Seattle, he is 2-0 with a 1.86 ERA. I feel the Tigers will turn things around today, especially with a stronger starter on the mound. Take Detroit. Thank you. |

Golden State Valkyries. Game 619. 1:00 PM PST/4:00 PM EST. Las Vegas was already struggling before they took a big hit when A’ja Wilson went down. She's not just the back-to-back reigning MVP, she is the team’s leading scorer. She went down on June 8 on the road at the New York Liberty, playing just 14 minutes, and contributing just two-points. They lost that game 87-78. Then the team took another loss on the road at the Washington Mystics on June 10, 70-68. This offense was struggling to begin with, ranking ninth in the league, averaging just 79.6 points per game. Now they must go up against the WNBA's second-best scoring defense in the Golden State Valkyries. Granted, Golden State leaves a lot to be desired on the offensive side of the ball. But this team is starting to heat up. Not only that, but they are one of the best in the league at covering the spread, going 12-7 ATS this season. They took down Las Vegas in the only meeting of 2025, about five weeks ago at home, 95-68. I doubt very much you'll see a different outcome here. Take the Valkyries. Thank you. |
