ANALYSIS
Back by 11 am EST with today's breakdown


Al DeMarco - GM

Sunday

10 DIME play on Pittsburgh and Gerrit Cole at home on the Run Line against Washington and Joe Ross. List both pitchers. The Pirates are +130 laying -1 1/2 runs.

The Pirates - and yours truly - ran into a hot pitcher yesterday in Gio Gonzalez and we both suffered setbacks as Washington rolled 9-3. Pittsburgh managed just seven hits in the game after banging out a total of 25 and scoring 14 combined runs in winning the series' first two games.

Despite Saturday's setback, the Pirates have won 10 of their last 12 at PNC Park where they're also 13-2 at home this season versus the N.L. East.

The Bucs are 7-2 in Gerrit Cole's home starts this year and his ERA in them is 2.79. No surprise considering the team was 9-2 in his Pittsburgh outings a year ago.

Cole, who is could become the Pirates' first 14-game winner before the calendar turns August since Dock Ellis accomplished the feat in 1971 - is 5-0 versus N.L. East foes this season with a 1.27 ERA. He is 8-2 with a 2.25 ERA in his last 11 outings no matter the opponent.

Washington rookie Joe Ross makes his fifth major league start and only his second on the road. He was dominant against the Pirates on June 19th when he faced them, scattering six hits and allowing one run while striking out 11 and walking one over 7.1 innings, but that start was at home against a Pittsburgh team that's struggled all season on the road.


Message From Al DeMarco

Ran into a hot pitcher (Gio Gonzalez) yesterday and consequently suffered the 10 Dime Loser on the Pirates.

Have still won nine of the past 14 days, but overall I'm upside down 55 of the past 98 days overall.

As for the free picks, after nine straight 2-0 sweeps, I lost Saturday's lone play as the Giants - my run line choice - only won 2-1 against Oakland. Still, I'll take a 26-3 roll with the comps over the past two weeks of action.

10 Dime Winner # 10 of 15 goes today as I'm backing a team in revenge as my Dog of the Day.

Sunday's Action...

50 Dime Winner for Sunday is the Dodgers with Greinke and the Mets with de Grom to hold Under the total. At 6:30 am eastern time, the total for this game is 6 over, -110. Keep in mind, both listed pitchers must start, or this is a no play.

Analysis

50 DIME - L.A. DODGERS-N.Y. METS UNDER THE TOTAL (Greinke vs. de Grom) --- Your top play of the day is the Mets and Dodgers to stay under the posted total. At the time of this writing, the total in Vegas and offshore is sitting at 6 and I don't expect it to move one way or the other.

Zack Greinke and Jacob DeGrom must start or this play is null and void.

How can this not be my release? Are there other good selections on the board? Sure there are, but this one seems to me to be the easiest money of everything on the entire board. Seriously, the only way this game doesn't stay under the total is if we get to the bullpens too early or one of these two pitchers is just flat out awful... and I don't see either happening.

Let's start with Greinke, who's gotta be livin' the high life right now after the birth of his first child and the fact that he's pitching better than anyone else in baseball... it could be one of his best outings to date... if that's even possible.

He hasn't allowed a single run in the last 43 2/3 and is on the verge of setting more and more records the further he goes with this onslaught. It's not often you see a pitcher with a 1.30 ERA... but that's exactly where Greinke is and it's going to be hard for the Mets to score.

As for the Dodgers, they're also facing one of the hottest pitchers in baseball in Jacob DeGrom (10-6, 2.18 ERA), who has been super-dominant over his last three outings.

Take the UNDER as your top play of the day.

Sunday Note From Craig

Handed you a 50 Dime Winner last night on the White Sox in their 10-3 thumping of the Indians.

Time to do it again on Sunday.

Today, 50 Dime Winner # 4 in a Row MLB Total of the Month going out on the diamond.

I have now won for you 14 of the past 17 days. In that time, a $10 bettor has netted $3,380.

Another 50 dimer goes on Sunday.

All you have to do is log in, and I will take care of the rest.


Brad Wilton

Your Sunday Winner...

Sunday winner is a 100 Dime release on the Pirates with Cole on the Run Line over the Nationals with Ross. At 4:00 am Vegas time the Pirates are -1 1/2 runs, +130 over the Nats. Keep in mind the listed pitchers must start, or this is a no play.

Sunday's Analysis

The Nats came out last night and pounced on the Bucs, 9-3 to get on board in this long 4 game weekend set. I like the Pirates to make it a convincing 3 wins in 4 meetings though today behind their main guy Gerrit Cole.

Cole just continues to be tough as nails, even if he did allow a 3 runs his last time out in a 3-1 loss at Kansas City. Consider that Cole stands at 5-0 in games started this season against the N.L. East, and that he is also 1-0 with a 2.08 ERA in his pair of starts versus the Nats.

Cole is also seeking to become Pittsburgh's first 14 game winner before the month of August since Dock Ellis did so way back in the early 1970's.

Pittsburgh is 13-2 at home this season versus teams from the N.L. East, and they are facing a rookie pitcher in Joe Ross who is making just his 5th start of the season.

Ross comes in off a loss to the New York Mets, as he stands at 2-2 thus far for his big league tenure.

After getting clocked on Saturday night, look for the Pirates behind the stingy Cole to take this one by at least a pair of runs.

Sunday's Note

Delivered another reduced price winner your way last night. It was tense, but in the end, 100 Dime Winner # 3 in a Row - Kansas City punches the ticket in extras against the Houston Astros.

Guys, that makes 5 straight winning days, and 100 Dime winners in 3 of the past 4 days. I sure hope you are not missing the ass-kicking I am delivering to your man!

BIGGEST MLB RELEASE

One more time I go to the well for you.

I have delivered winning days 16 of the past 21, with a profit of $7,120 at just $10 wagered per unit!

100 Dime Winner # 4 in a Row - Underdog Game of the Year on line right now.

Time to continue the winning tear, and this time it is a plus-money pup.

Nothing more to say, let's make some cash boys!


Matt Rivers

SUNDAY

500,000♦ release on Boston and Rodriguez against Detroit and Greene. Gotta list both guys. The Red Sox are -135 as of 6:55 Eastern this morning in
Miami where I'm based.

So I'm called this my "Sunday Night MISMATCH of the Year," but you're probably wondering why since I'm backing the team that's lost nine of 10.

The "mismatch" I'm talking about is on the mound.

Boston's rookie Rodriguez got beat up by a hot-hitting LA team in Anaheim in his last start (7 runs in 1.2 IP), but he had been 2-0 with a 2.08 ERA in his previous three starts.

And he's won his last two at Fenway, beating the Yankees and Astros.

Detroit's Green got off to a great start this season, but he eventually earned a ticket to Triple-A after going 1-6 with an 8.60 ERA in his final 10 starts through early June.

The change in scenery didn't help.

He's made two starts since getting recalled.

He lasted 4.2 innings in each. 12 runs allowed. 5 walks.

His road ERA this year: 8.44 in seven starts.

His night ERA this year: 6.85 in nine starts.

he hasn't worked through the 5th in five straight starts.

And you know Detroit's bullpen is among the worst in baseball.

The Red Sox haven't been hitting, but facing Greene might be just what the doctor ordered.

Tigers won yesterday, but they haven't won two straight in two weeks.

Might not be pretty, but the Red Sox "roll big" and win it 4-3.


Message From Matt

Top-Rated 500,000♦ Winner # 7 of 9 is ready to rock 'n roll tonight, my Sunday Night Mismatch of the Year on the Red Sox-Tigers at Fenway.

This play is just as strong as my 500K N.L. Game of the Year Winner last Sunday when you got Milwaukee 6-1 over Pittsburgh for just $22, a savings of $77 off the regular price thanks to a big coupon here at the site.

Same goes with my 500K Revenge Lock on Thursday when St. Louis nipped KC at home 4-3, a winner you got for just $29, a savings of $70 off the regular price.

It's also Winner # 45 of 75 over the past six months.


Trace Adams

Sunday's Selection ...

For Sunday, Raise the Bar 1500♦ is the Orioles with Chen over the Rays with Moore. At 7:30 am eastern time, the O's are -115 in Vegas and offshore. Note: Both listed pitchers must start, or NO ACTION on this release.

Both teams not exactly "burning it up" lately, but I prefer to side with the O's who will be gunning for back-to-back wins for the first time since last weekend when they were able to pull the trick in Detroit.

I think it will happen behind Wei-Yin Chen who sports a very respectable 2.47 ERA his past 8 trips to the mound. He will be facing a Tampa Bay team that has scored 4 runs or less in 12 straight contests. Not surprisingly, the Rays have dropped 5 of their last 8 games overall.

Starter Matt Moore is still trying to find his way back from Tommy John surgery, and is making just his 5th start overall this year. Thus far he is 1-1 with a 7.23 ERA.

Back the O's over the Rays in the series finale.

Note: Both listed pitchers must start, or NO ACTION on this release.

Sunday Note

That's more like it! Got a little worried when the Yankees fell behind 5-0, but all worked out well in the end, and I secured another winning day behind my 1500♦ on New York.

Time to close the weekend with a winner.

Today, Raise The Bar 1500♦ Winner # 10 of 12 - Division Rivalry Game of the Year on line, as I hand you the winner of the Orioles-Rays from Tampa.

Need to keep the winning nights flowing.

At $1 bet per unit, you are up over to 26K for the past 31 days.

PS - Don't forget my Pay-After-You-Win release.

Remember, the Pay-After play is always on a SEPARATE extension.

Must win, or you will NOT be charged!


Anthony Redd

Sunday's Play

50 Dime selection on the Detroit Tigers (Greene) against the Boston Red Sox (Rodriguez). As I release this play at 4:55am Pacific here in Vegas, the line on the Tigers is +125 in Vegas and offshore.

A Word About Today's Action

Mathematically, my run with 50 Dimers is no longer my hottest play. That designation now goes to 70 Dimers after I cashed in 70 Dime Winner # 9 of 13 last night as the White Sox crushed the Indians 10-3!

That's not to say 50 Dimers can't reclaim the title, and step one comes today as I release 50 Dime Winner # 17 of 25 on the Tigers - Red Sox.

Watch me push the winning percentage with 50 Dimers back up to 68% as I go forWinning Day # 4 of 5.

When I'm winning, you're winning because I am a Professional Gambler who spends his every waking moment here in the Vegas sportsbooks. Just ask the IRS; it's been my listed occupation on my tax returns for 15+ years.


Jeff Benton

Sunday's Action

50 Dime winner is the Yankees (Eovaldi) over Minnesota (Gibson). At 8:00 am eastern time, the Yankees are -110 in Vegas and offshore. Keep in mind that both listed pitchers must start, or this is a NO play.

ANALYSIS

When you come back from 5-0 down on the road, and get to an All-Star closer like Glen Perkins in the 9th inning, well, that is the type of win that can put a ton of wind in your sails for the series finale.

Now, instead of trying to salvage a 3 game series, you can actually win the series with the "W" today, and while Kyle Gibson has been tough this season, the Yanks have now won 10 of their last 13 games overall, and Gibson does bring in a 1-2 mark versus the Yankees with a sky-high 10.95 ERA in those decisions.

Nathan Eovaldi is looking for his 10th win of the season today, and is 4-0 with a 2.97 ERA the last 6 times he has climbed the hill. He is also 4-0 with a 2.61 ERA in his 5 day starts this season.

Big win last night by the Bronx Bombers gives them momentum to take the series with the win today.

SUNDAY NOTE

Big Play Specialist locked and loaded for Sunday.

In need of a strong close to the weekend after a pair of totals that went kaput the past two days.

At $10 bet per unit, my baseball players are still up $2,810 for the year!

Take that back to the start of last season, and that same $10 bettor is up $9,570.

Today, 50 Dime Winner # 15 of 23 - American League Best Bet is on line, as I hand you the winner of the Yankees-Twins.

A $10 bettor has netted $10,920 overall in all sports the past 447 days, and there is more winning lined up for Sunday.

No need to mince words, just hit this winner and move on.


Gabriel DuPont

MLB winner...

My 40 Dime Winner for today is the BALTIMORE ORIOLES in their American League East clash with the Tampa Bay Rays. As I release this play at 6 am pacific, I see the number on this game is Baltimore -110. Be sure you're listing both Chen and Moore in this game.

MLB Breakdown

The SMART INTANGIBLE for my play today - Baltimore won yesterday, 5-1, and would love to close this series out with a victory, as it would catapult the Orioles into third place, leapfrogging Tampa Bay. The O's are seven back of the American League East-leading New York Yankees, while the Rays are just 6.5 back.

The X-FACTOR in making this choice on this game - My x-factor has to be Baltimore starter Wei-Yin Chen, who hasn't won since July 1. And that's why he is a factor to me. The crafty left-hander continues to produce strong outings for the O's. I mean, the last time this dude pitched less than six innings was June 10. Over 16 career starts against the Rays, he is a mere 3-5, but boasts a 3.42 ERA.

In SUMMARY, why this is the SMART PLAY with this game - I don't know what's gotten into Tampa Bay's Matt Moore, but he can't be trusted at this time. His command issues continue to be a problem. In his four starts since returning from Tommy John surgery, he has lost five leads in those starts. He is in after losing to the worst team in the league - the Phillies - last Monday, when he allowed four runs on five hits and three walks.
