Monday NFL Pick

The Washington Redskins will be getting 7 points tonight when they travel to Arrowhead Stadium to take on the Kansas City Chiefs. Kirk Cousins was impressive last week when he threw for 365 yards with 3 touchdowns. The Redskins are 10-2 ATS in their last 12 road games and the Chiefs are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 home games. The road dog tonight.
TONIGHT’S PICK: WASHINGTON REDSKINS +7

Sunday NFL Pick

The Oakland Raiders should be without their star receiver, Michael Crabtree, when they take on the Denver Broncos today at Mile High. The Raiders David Carr did not look impressive last week against Washington when he completed just 19-31 passes for 118 yards and had 2 interceptions. To make matters worse, Oakland’s Amari Cooper is banged up with a knee issue but should suit up today. This will force the Raiders to hand the ball to Marshawn Lynch, who is definitely showing his age. Lynch rushed for just 18 yards last week on 6 carries against the Redskins. The Broncos defense is stellar, ranking #1 in the NFL against the rush, and holding teams to just 2.6 yards per carry. The Raiders are 2-8-1 ATS in their last 11 meetings with Denver and 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 games at Mile High Stadium.
TODAY’S PICK: DENVER BRONCOS -3

Saturday MLB Pick

The Cleveland Indians can clinch home field advantage throughout the American League post-season with a win today at home over the Chicago White Sox and I see that happening. Cleveland showed no mercy on Chicago yesterday, pummeling them 10-1. It won’t get any easier for the White Sox today because Corey Kluber is expected to go for the Indians. Cleveland’s ace has been throwing flames, with a record of 18-4, an ERA of 2.27, and a 0.86 WHIP. The Indians are 6-0 in Kluber’s last 6 starts against the White Sox and 4-1 in his last 5 turns against them at Progressive Field. The young upstart Carson Fulmer is expected to get the nod for the White Sox. Fulmer is 2-1, with a 4.42 ERA, a 1.31 WHIP, and was yanked early in his last start with a blister and that is always an issue. The White Sox are 15-38 in their last 53 road games and 0-5 in their last 5 meetings with the Indians. The number is high in this one and so it should be.
TONIGHT’S PICK: CLEVELAND INDIANS

Friday MLB Pick

The Milwaukee Brewers sit 2 games back of the Colorado Rockies, with 3 games left for the second Wild Card spot, so it is a must-win situation for them tonight when they play out the last 3 games against the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium. The Cardinals were eliminated last night from post-season play by the Chicago Cubs and will send John Grant to the rubber to oppose the Brewers Chase Anderson. Grant will be making his second start of the season and is 0-0, with a 3.65 ERA, a 1.38 WHIP, and has yielded 3 homers in his 2 outings. The Cardinals are 1-5 in their last 6 overall and 1-5 in their last 6 games against the National League Central. The Brewers Chase Anderson has mowed them down in 2017, with a record of 11-4, a 2.81 ERA, and a 1.12 WHIP. The Brewers are 7-2 in their last 9 road games, 6-2 in their last 8 meetings with St. Louis, and 4-1 in their last 5 trips to Busch Stadium. Brew Crew stays alive!
TONIGHT’S PICK: MILWAUKEE BREWERS

Thursday MLB Pick

The New York Yankees are still alive to capture the American League East title and tonight they will go for the 3-game sweep of the Tampa Bay Rays at Yankee Stadium. The Bombers have been hot, winning 18 of their last 24 games, going 11-1 in their last 12 at home, and have scored 33 runs over their last 5 contests. New York will send Sonny Gray to the rubber and he has pitched better than his record indicates. Gray is 10-11 on the season, with an ERA of 3.30, and a 1.17 WHIP. The Rays will counter with Jake Faria. He is 5-4, with an ERA of 3.33, a 1.15 WHIP, and is winless in his last 3 turns, with an ERA of 4.67 and a 1.33 WHIP. Tampa has struggled with the Yanks, going 2-8 in the last 10 meetings, and are just 7-23 in their last 30 trips to the Bronx. I like the Bombers in this situation.
TONIGHT’S PICK: NEW YORK YANKEES

Wednesday MLB Pick

The Colorado Rockies have just a 1-1/2 game lead over the Milwaukee Brewers for the second Wild Card spot, so losing is not an option when they play the rubber game of a 3-game set against the Miami Marlins in an early one today at Coors Field. The Rockies will send Jon Gray to the hill and he will be opposed by Marlins southpaw Adam Conley. Conley has had issues in his last 3 outings, going 1-0, with an inflated ERA of 10.50, a 2.17 WHIP, and was lit up in his last turn, allowing 7 runs on 6 hits in just 1-2/3 innings. Gray on the other hand, has been delivering. He is 2-0 in his last 3 outings, with an ERA of just 1.50, a 0.89 WHIP, and has allowed 3 runs or fewer in his last 12 starts. The Rockies are 8-3 in their last 11 home games against southpaws and should get to Conley today.
