Wednesday MLB Pick

Are the Tampa Bay Rays going to be swept by the Texas Rangers on their home turf at Tropicana Field? I doubt it. The Rays are 53-29 in St. Pete and will have Zack Eflin on the hill. Eflin is 16-8 with a 3.50 ERA and a WHIP of just 1.05. The Rangers will counter with Nathan Eovaldi and he can deliver. Eovaldi is 12-5 with a 3.63 ERA and a 1.14 WHIP. This will be a tight one, with two flamethrowers on the bump, but Tampa is not going down without a fight and will prevail.
TODAY’S PICK: TAMPA BAY RAYS

Tuesday MLB Pick

The 89-73 Toronto Blue Jays will be in Minneapolis today when they face the 87-75 Minnesota Twins in Game 1 of the AL Wild Card series. Toronto has played well on the road, with a record of 46-35, and will have their ace, Kevin Gausman, on the hill. Gausman is 12-9 with a 3.16 ERA and over his last 3 turns he is 1-1 with a 2.04 ERA. Minnesota is expected to hand the ball to Pablo López. He comes in at 11-8 with a 3.66 ERA but over his last 3 his ERA has soared to 6.46. The Twins do not score a lot of runs and Gausman will be able to keep them in check. The young guns for the Jays get it done today.
TODAY’S PICK: TORONTO BLUE JAYS

Monday NFL Pick

The 2-1 Seattle Seahawks will be in New Jersey tonight to face the 1-2 New York Giants. The Seahawks are 5-0 in in their last 5 trips to the Garden State and have Geno Smith over center. He is the most underrated quarterback in the NFL. Smith has thrown for 736 yards with 4 TDs and just 1 pick. The Jersey Boys will have Daniel Jones at the helm. He has thrown for 562 yards with only 2 TDs and 4 picks. The line opened up with the Giants laying 1 and has flipped to the Seahawks laying 2 plus the hook.
TONIGHT’S PICK: SEATTLE SEAHAWKS M/L

Sunday NFL Pick

The Miami Dolphins might be 3-0 but today they travel to Western New York to face the Buffalo Bills and that’s a horse of a different color. The 2-1 Bills had a hiccup in game 1 against the Jets but since then they have been lethal, taking down the Raiders, 38-10, and then taking it on the arches to DC and blowing out the Commanders, 38-3. Miami is coming off a 70-10 romp over the Denver Broncos but you don’t run it up like that. It’s an unwritten rule and a kiss of death. The Bills will make coach McDaniel and company pay.
TODAY’S PICK: BUFFALO BILLS M/L

Saturday NCAA Football Pick

The 4-0 Syracuse Orange will be a home dog today when they host the Clemson Tigers at the Dome. The Orange are 1-0 in Syracuse and 3-0-1 ATS. The Tigers are 2-2 , 0-1 on the road, and 1-3 ATS. The Orange are averaging 517.3 yards per game and the Tigers are averaging 486.3. Clemson is 9-1 in the last 10 meetings but just 3-7 ATS. The Q are getting no respect in this one, with the current line of Clemson -6½, but that’s okay. It will give them more motivation to prove the odds makers wrong.
TODAY’S PICK: SYRACUSE ORANGE +6½

Friday MLB Pick

The Miami Marlins hold a slim half game lead over the Chicago Cubs for the third and last Wild Card spot in the NL. Tonight they visit the Pittsburgh Pirates for the final 3-game set of the regular season, however if they don’t secure a Wild Card spot by Sunday, they might have to play a makeup game with the Mets on Monday. How do they avoid this scenario? It’s simple: sweep the 75-84 Pirates. The Marlins have won 3 of the 4 meetings this year with the Bucs and are 5-0 in their last 5 road games against a team with a home losing record. Tonight’s expected starters for both teams have yet to be announced but we know one thing for sure, the Pirates will not be sending two of their best to the hill this weekend, Mitch Keller and Johan Oviedo, who are done for the year. Pittsburgh will be playing a lot of their young prospects and Miami will take advantage of that.
TONIGHT’S PICK: MIAMI MARLINS
