NBA | Grizzlies vs Jazz
Play on: Grizzlies +15½ -108 at 5Dimes

Dave’s Friday Free Play:
1* on Memphis Grizzlies +15.5
The Key: Oddsmakers have adjusted this line too much in Utah’s favor. Of course the Jazz need to win, but that doesn’t mean they are going to win by 16-plus points to cover this huge 15.5-point spread. The Grizzlies have shown they aren’t just going to pack it in. They are coming off back-to-back upset wins against playoff teams, winning 101-93 in Minnesota as 13-point dogs and 108-103 at home against Portland as 5.5-point dogs. Utah has been upset 94-97 at home by Boston as 10.5-point favorites and 94-99 at home against Atlanta as 13.5-point favorites in its last 2 home games. The Jazz are starting to feel the pressure of trying to make the playoffs. Take Memphis.

NBA | Pelicans vs Cavs
Play on: Cavs -4 -105 at 5Dimes

1 Unit FREE PLAY on Cleveland Cavaliers -4
The Cleveland Cavaliers are trying to secure the No. 3 seed in the Eastern Conference. They are currently in that position and want to hold on so that way they’ll be matched up with the banged-up Celtics in the second round. Lebron James is playing as well as perhaps he’s every played right now, leading the Cavs to a 6-1 SU & 5-2 ATS stretch over their last seven games. The new players they got in the trade are starting to gel, and the Cavs will continue being a dangerous team moving forward. The home team is 6-1 ATS in the last seven meetings in this series. Give me the Cavs.

MLB | Yankees vs Blue Jays
Play on: Yankees -143 at 5Dimes

I'm backing the NY Yankees on Friday with Tanaka over Sanchez. New York is back to its dominating attack reminiscent of the late 1990s and the Yankees had no trouble with the Blue Jays on Opening Day as Giancarlo Stanton hit two home runs in his first game with the Bronx Bombers. Masahiro Tanaka has owned Toronto hitters, who have a collective .189 batting average against him and just a .360 slugging percentage. Tanaka was 3-1 versus Toronto with a .216 opposing batting average in five starts in 2017. Aaron Sanchez is trying to recover from four stints on the disabled list last season, three of which were due to blisters. In four starts at home, Sanchez allowed 14 runs (10 earned) on 19 hits in 13 innings. The Yanks have won eight of Tanaka's last 11 starts and five of his last six starts versus the Blue Jays. We're backing the NY Yankees on Friday. Thanks & GL! Scott Spreitzer.

MLB | Cubs vs Marlins
Play on: Cubs -1½ -123 at pinnacle

10* FREE MLB PICK (Cubs -1.5)
I cashed in with the Cubs on the run line Thursday, as Chicago won 8-4 over the Marlins, despite a poor outing from starter Jon Lester. I'll gladly take my chances with the Cubs on the -1.5 run line again on Friday. Chicago's offense could have easily scored double-digits in the opener, as they let a bunch of opportunities go by. It was also a bit of bad luck that the 3 homers they hit all came with no runners on base. I see no reason they don't continue their offensive onslaught in Game 2 of the series, as Miami sends out Caleb Smith, who is only getting the nod here because of an injury to starter Dan Straily. Chicago counters with Kyle Hendricks, who I think is a legit threat to win the NL Cy Young this season. Hendricks had a down year in 2017, largely due to injuries, yet still went 7-5 with a solid 3.03 ERA in 24 starts. He should own this Marlins offense, which is easily the worst unit in the league. Give me the Cubs -1.5 (-123)!

NHL | Blues vs Golden Knights
Play on: UNDER 5½ -110

This is a 1* Free Play on the UNDER between St. Louis and Las Vegas.
St. Louis has won eight of ten, including six straight. None have been “easy” either, as four of the last six have been decided in OT, including its latest 3-2 OT win over the Sharks. These teams played to a lower-scoring affair the last time they got together in the Blues’ 2-1 victory in early January and we think that everything points to similar tightly-checked, lower-scoring contest. The Knights clinched their playoff spot and have since been resting players and re-working things in anticipation of the post-season. Vegas though will be eager to get untracked as it comes in having split its last ten games, including falling 3-2 to Arizona in its most recent action. Note that the Blues have seen the total go UNDER in 13 of 17 already this year when playing with two days rest, while Las Vegas has seen the total go UNDER the number in nine of 15 in trying to revenge a loss against an opponent. Consider the UNDER.

NBA | Bulls vs Magic
Play on: Magic -6½ -110 at pinnacle

DMack's Free Play for Friday, March 30, 2018 is on the Orlando Magic
These are two teams really stinking up the joint while playing out the string and trying to accumulate the most ping pong balls for June. You'd be hard pressed to find a team expending as little effort as the Chicago Bulls who have now lost seven straight (2-5 ATS) including the first first three games of this roadie by 22-32-11. The Magic are 2-4 in their L6 and seem to at least play hard at times. As bad as the Bulls are right now, the Magic might not be able to help winning this by double-digits if the ball is going down.

MLB | Yankees vs Blue Jays
Play on: Yankees -144 at BetPhoenix

#MLB FREE PICK FROM MIKE LUNDIN
The New York Yankees opened the season with a dominant 6-1 victory here at Toronto on Thursday. Giancarlo Stanton hit a two-run homer in his first at-bat as a Yankee and went 3-for-5 with two homers on the day to improve to five homers in four career games at Rogers Centre.
Toronto recorded just two hits in the defeat, and odds are that the Blue Jays will struggle to get on the board again when facing Masahiro Tanaka on the mound Friday night. Tanaka is 9-4 with a 2.95 ERA in 15 career starts against Toronto, allowing one earned run or no earned runs in seven of those starts. Yankees are 5-1 in Tanaka's last six starts vs. Blue Jays.
The Blue Jays turn to Aaron Sanchez who was sharp during spring training, but he won only once last year as recurring blister issues limited him to only eight starts. I don't see Sanchez getting enough run support in this contest.
Free pick on New York Yankees.
