 MLB - Pittsburgh +1.5 - .5 Units - Win

 NCAAB - Florida to win - 1 Unit - Win

Lets recap our perfect night from yesterday, starting with the national championship game in college basketball, where the Florida Gators got the comeback win over the Houston Cougars 65-63, hitting our ML pick on the Gators. This one was definitely in doubt for the Gators, with Houston leading for most of the game. Gotta give Florida a lot of credit here, they stuck with it and overcame a 12 point deficit in the second half to steal the win in the final minute, and didn’t let Houston get a final shot off on their last possession. Congrats to Florida on an incredible season!

In some MLB action, The Detroit Tigers defeated the New York Yankees 6-2, hitting our +1.5 selection on Detroit. Andy Ibañez hit a three run homer in the 3rd inning that separated the teams, and the Yankees could never get in striking distance again. Both teams sit at 6-4 to start the season. In our other MLB selection, the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the St Louis Cardinals 8-4, hitting our Pittsburgh +1.5 pick here. Joey Bart, Andrew McCutchen and Isiah Kiner-Falefa all drove in 2 runs each for the Pirates in this one, as the Cardinals have now lost 6 out of the last 7 after starting the season out 3-0.

Cleveland -1.5

Analysis:

One thing to consider here is the Guardians not having their last at bat which has got us a couple times this year. However, the Guardians' home opener on Tuesday is significant as they are the last team to start their home season, having been the best team in the American League at home in 2024, which highlights their effectiveness in leveraging home-field advantage. In contrast, the White Sox initially showed signs of being competitive but have quickly fallen into a rut, losing four consecutive games and resembling their…[Click here to get the Full write up on this bet]...

Pittsburgh to win

Analysis:

The Pirates have struggled offensively this season, but the Cardinals appear to be in an even worse situation regarding scoring as they face off in a matchup between two aces: Sonny Gray and Paul Skenes. Gray has had a rocky start to the 2025 season and will be pitching on the road for the first time, which adds to the uncertainty given that he posted a 5.20 ERA away from home in 2024. This makes it difficult to predict how he will perform in an unfamiliar setting. Conversely, Paul Skenes has been dominant against the Cardinals, boasting an impressive 1.31 ERA over 20.2 career innings against them. Despite his…[Click here to get the Full write up on this bet]...

Golden State -7.5

Analysis:

Are we certain the Suns genuinely want to make the playoffs this season? It might be more strategic for them to keep Kevin Durant sidelined until the offseason, potentially increasing his trade value. If he does return to the court, how much impact can we expect him to have? Currently, the Suns are in a tailspin, having lost six straight games and failing to cover the spread in their last seven, six of which were by significant margins. Their defensive struggles are evident, as they've allowed an average of 120 points per game over the last ten contests, with opponents shooting an alarming 51.2% from the field and 41.6% from beyond the arc—this defensive inefficiency presents a major issue going into their next matchup. The Warriors, meanwhile, are in the thick of the…[Click here to get the Full write up on this bet]...
