UNDER 5
COLORADO @ ARIZONA | 8/15 | 3:00 PM EDT
11:57 AM
We have now cashed with the Under in the first two meetings and plan on doing so again with another low-scoring defensive battle. The Coyotes are in a huge hole down 0-2, and I expect them to play their best defensive game. Darcy Kuemper was solid in net but is going to have to be better. The Coyotes did a much better job creating scoring chances, however Philipp Grubauer shined in net. With a chance to go up 3-0, the Avalanche will really tighten up defensively. The Under has cashed in 19 of the last 24 games for Colorado. Take the Under.

VEGAS @ CHICAGO | 8/15 | 8:00 PM EDT

The Vegas Knights have completely dominated this series winning 10 of 11 all-time meetings and have a commanding 2-0 series lead. This game should be played with a lot more intensity from both teams, and I think that is going to lead to plenty of scoring chances and goals. These teams have plenty of scorers who will shine tonight. Take the Over.

I can no longer trust the Indians to stay Under the total because the bats have awakened, and the Over is 3-1 in their last four games. Meanwhile the Tigers have gone Over in their last three during their three-game losing streak. The price is a bit out of my usual range, but Shane Bieber is actually cheap by 12 cents so I bet him on value. The Indians are 4-0 behind him. Indians moneyline the play.

Andrew Heaney was chased in the fourth inning at Texas in his last start after giving up five runs. The Angels have also lost five of their last seven overall. Walker Buehler takes the mound for the Dodgers, who have won three straight and have gone 4-1 against lefty starters this season. Dodgers to win.

The Rays had their six-game win streak snapped last night by the Blue Jays but went Over the total for their fifth straight game. That's the streak I’m riding today because the Blue Jays love hitting in their rented stadium in Buffalo. They have gone Over in all three games played in Buffalo. Over is the play.

Memphis stayed Under the total in its last four games and six of the eight bubble games. The reason was not great defense but rather an offense that was never in rhythm. The Grizzlies came out firing in only one game, and that was against the shabby Blazers who play no defense. Portland won, 140-135. The Blazers will force the issue and get this one Over, just like seven of their eight games in the bubble.

TEXAS @ COLORADO | 8/15 | 8:10 PM EDT

The Rangers' Kyle Gibson is still a very serviceable pitcher, but Saturday's game is in Denver not Arlington. Meanwhile Rockies righty German Marquez has an ERA of 2.08 in four starts in 2020, but three road starts were all at pitchers parks. Last year Marquez's ERA was 6.26 in Denver and 3.67 on the road. Don't let one good start by Marquez in Denver lead you away from betting this one Over.

KANSAS CITY @ MINNESOTA | 8/15 | 1:35 PM EDT
12:16 PM
Remember: Doubleheaders are seven-inning games. Twins starter Jose Berrios has 107 career starts and is the ace of the staff. He has had two very good starts and two very bad starts. I'm looking for Berrios to bounce back with a strong start against a Royals team that scored four runs in 5.1 innings in his last outing. Meanwhile the Royals' Danny Duffy is a crafty lefty, and three of his four 2020 starts have been above average. The Twins lineup has been 6 percent below average versus lefties in 2020. Take the Under.

ATLANTA @ MIAMI | 8/15 | 6:10 PM EDT

Taken with the seventh pick in 2012, the Braves' Max Fried is starting to live up to his hype. Fried had an ERA of 4.02 last year however his xFIP was 3.32. This year his ERA is 1.59 with a 3.52 xFIP. Meanwhile Miami's Daniel Castano went from relief pitcher in high Class A ball last year to a starter in Class AA to the majors in 2020. Castano didn't even have the benefit of pitching any minor league games this year. Miami was desperate and threw Castano to the wolves. Take the Over.

If the Blazers win they're in, but if the Grizzlies win they will go to a winner-take-all game tomorrow. Portland's firepower has been amazing during the restart, winning six of their eight games while having an average score of 126-123. Meanwhile Memphis has gone 2-6 since the restart and lost its second-best player, Jaren Jackson Jr., three games into the bubble. Without Jackson the Grizzlies have slowed down the pace, run more isolation for Ja Morant and are trying to work the ball inside to Jonas Valančiūnas. Take the Under.
