You’re probably pissed about MLB. So am I. I’ve been super confident in my plays the last two days so to see those results has my mind spinning. I’ll be reducing our exposure for a little and redirecting our funds to other opportunities. Then maybe we’ll have more plays in the near-future. For now, MLB can kiss my hairy white ass.
MLB Picks:
Twins +134, 1 unit
The Twins are finally showing some consistency, Archer has done a great job limiting runs lately, and Bieber doesn’t look like himself in June. Great value here on the road dog to keep on winning.
SD/LAD under 8 (-120), to win 1 unit
Musgrove is San Diego’s ace and the Padres can rarely rely on their offense, especially against elite bullpens. Mitch White has been more consistent and against average offenses, he’s looked very solid. Like an under.
Wimbledon Picks:
Karolina Pliskova (-115 to -150 live), to win 1 unit
Harriet Dart (+275), to win 2.75 units
Have you seen the way this chick plays tennis? She’s absolutely locked in right now and we think she has as good a chance as any of upsetting Jessica Pegula. Pegula has a strong arm and she’s motivated by a family emergency that nearly kept her out of this tournament, but this line is inflated and I’m not sure she knows what’s coming. Dart played mistake-free tennis in the 1st round and her returns are phenomenal.
Iga Swiatek -8 (-125), to win 1 unit
Iga Swiatek 4-0 after 4 games (+185), to win 1.85 units
Speaking of being “in the zone,” Swiatek exploded onto the scene this year and won the French Open. Her opponent today should give her little issue, and something like a 6-0, 6-1 result is likely.
Denis Shapovalov -2 (-120), to win 1 unit
This young man has championship potential and he showed it last year when he went 1-1 with Nadal in the Australian Open. I think he wins with authority this morning.
CFL Picks:
BC Lions -2 (-110), to win 1.5 units
Everyone and their brother touted how wrong this line was when it came out as BC -4.5 but now it’s been moved down way too much. It’s the start of the season and we realize that Ottawa is a good team at home, but the Lions have been incredibly explosive on offense and I’m not sure the Redblacks can keep up. Is this a situation where the books had it wrong OR did the dorky number dudes who think they know everything about “bad lines” just over-assert themselves here? I’ll take advantage of the movement.
Foreign Basketball Picks:
FIBA World Cup: China vs. Australia over 157, to win 1 unit
Both of these teams hold an offensive advantage in this contest, with China being the far superior 2-point shooting team and Australia being a way better option from beyond the arc. Against an unfamiliar opponent, we’re betting the under.
If you ever have any questions, message me here, on Twitter, or on Instagram. I will make myself available from 9am to 5pm every day, but please don’t expect an answer outside of those hours. I gotta shut it down sometimes. All picks are 1-5 stars based on unit size and confidence. 3 star picks are rare, 4-5 star picks are VERY rare. All plays listed are TO WIN that amount. In other words, if I say Bucks -3 for 1 unit, we’re betting 1.1 units at -110 or 1.15 units at -115 to win 1 unit.
Always appreciate all of you! -Chris
