MLB | Phillies vs Mets
Play on: Mets -117 at GTBets
Everything on paper says NY should own this series, with 6 wins over the last 10 games - New York owns the Phillies historically. And Mickey Callaway brings some excitement in as the new manager... one of the more interesting moves in managerial spots for sure. Their strength vs the Phils will continue moving on here.
Philadelphia ended their 2017 season with a hot streak - but are starting off the season slow like last season as well. Aaron Nola had just a 12-11 record to go along with a 3.54 ERA, over 27 starts to be their best pitcher on the season, which isn't saying a whole lot. Philadelphia struggled with hitting a lot of balls into groundouts as they lacked any lift. A poor batting team vs a better pitching team is going to be tough for them to handle on the road. Mets win this one on Tuesday behind Matt Harvey.

MLB | Rockies vs Padres
Play on: Padres +108 at BMaker
Free pick on Padres +
I'm recommending a play on the Padres at basically a pick'em at home against the Rockies. San Diego will be extremely motivated to get a win here after dropping the first 4 games of the season. I like their chances as they will send out Tyson Ross, who returned to the Padres after missing most of 2016 with an injury and making 10 starts last year with the Rangers.
When healthy Ross was one of the better starters in the game. His last full season was in 2015 and he posted a 3.26 ERA and 1.31 WHIP in 33 starts. The year before he had a 2.81 ERA and 1.21 WHIP in 31 starts. There's certainly concern on whether he can stay healthy, but all signs out of spring training are that he's in great form physically.
Padres are also 17-7 against the money line over the last 3 seasons when they come having lost 4 or more games in a row. They are also 8-1 in their last 9 at home after giving up 7+ runs in 2 straight games. Take San Diego!

MLB | Nationals vs Braves
Play on: Braves +118 at 5Dimes
Jack’s Free Pick Tuesday: Atlanta Braves +118
The Washington Nationals are off to a 4-0 start this season. They have picked up right where they left off last year. However, I expect them to suffer their first loss of the season tonight against the Atlanta Braves.
The Braves will be giving the ball to ace Julio Teheran. Teheran dominated the Nationals last season, going 3-0 with a 0.86 ERA in his final three starts against them, allowing just 2 earned runs in 21 innings pitched.
A.J. Cole is the 5th starter for the Nationals. He gave up 9 runs and 10 base runners in 2 innings of a 13-12 win over the Braves in his lone career start against them. Cole sports a 15.75 ERA in two outings against the Nationals in his career. The Braves will get their bats going again after scoring 27 runs in their three-game series with the Phillies.
Teheran is 9-1 (+11.7 units) against the money line vs. an NL team with an on-base percentage of .340 or better in his career. Cole is 0-6 (-9.1 units) as a favorite of -110 or higher over the last two seasons. Bet the Braves Tuesday.

MLB | LAD vs ARI
Play on: UNDER 7½ -115
MLB 75 DIME GAME
7.5 UNDER
Los Angeles won four out of the previous five H2H meetings, but Arizona was victorious in four out of the last five at Chase Field, and although this will probably be a tight affair, I am giving a slight advantage to the visitors, who recorded three wins in a row on the road in the pre-season. A potential key in this encounter could be the left-handed pitcher Kershaw who is quite talismanic when it comes to duels with Arizona, as the Dodgers are 5-0 in Kershaw’s last five starts vs. Diamondbacks. The over has been the play here, but today the weather is nice, and both pitchers will keep the runs low. I have the Dodgers winning 3-1. Lay the money on the under.

NBA | Warriors vs Thunder
Play on: Thunder -3½ -105 at pinnacle
Play - Oklahoma City Thunder (Game 714).
Edges - Thunder: 8-3 SUATS at home with revenge from a same season loss of 32 or more points… Warriors: 2-4 SU and 0-6 ATS on Tuesdays this season. With the Thunder looking to avenge a 112-80 loss suffered at Golden State in February, the worst loss in this series since at least 1990, we recommend a 1* play on Oklahoma City. Thank you and good luck as always.

NBA | Wizards vs Rockets
Play on: Wizards +7½ -108 at 5Dimes
1 Unit FREE PLAY on Washington Wizards +7.5
The Houston Rockets are the top seed in the NBA playoffs. They are having a hard time finding reasons to be motivated over these final couple weeks of the season. They needed a buzzer-beater to top Phoenix 104-103 as 17-point home favorites, and then they lost 83-100 at San Antonio the game after. Mike D’Antoni has been preaching he wants his team sharp, but that’s easier said than done. The Rockets are mentally checked out right now and would be better off resting their players. The Wizards come in fresh and 100% healthy with John Wall back in the lineup. They are trying to fend off the Heat and Bucks for the 6th season in the East. Houston is 7-21 ATS in non-conference home games over the last two seasons. The road team is 7-2 ATS in the last nine meetings. The Wizards are 4-1 ATS in their last five meetings in Houston. Give me the Wizards.

NBA | Kings vs Suns
Play on: Kings PK -108 at GTBets
Dave’s Tuesday Free Play:
1* on Sacramento Kings PK The Key: The Suns are close to wrapping up the worst record in the NBA and their 25% chance of receiving the top pick in the NBA Draft. They have executed their tanking plan to perfection by resting all of their best players and claiming that they are injured. The Suns have now lost 15 straight and are 1-25 in their last 26 games overall. The Kings have continued to play with pride while trying to win games. They can be trusted to show up much more than the Suns can right now. Take Sacramento.

NHL | Jets vs Canadiens
Play on: Canadiens +145 at 5Dimes
Montreal +145
Montreal plays their last home game of the season and they are 18-14-9 at home. Winnipeg is off a high scoring road game at Ottawa. Nice value on the home team that has struggled this year.
Winn 3
Montreal 4
