The New York Mets woke up today with the most wins in baseball and the best record in baseball. They also woke up refreshed, having been idle Thursday after playing 20 games in 21 days to begin the season. New York will try to remain on top of the MLB mountain when it welcomes the […]
Thursday’s Best Bets went 2-for-3, which is just fine by us. We’ll take a 66.6% winning rate to the bank whenever it’s offered. Speaking of winning rate, our Best Bets are 8-4 on the week heading into Friday. That’s despite a few close calls working against us. Even though there’s only one game on the […]
The NL Cy Young odds tell a similar story to last year when it comes to picking a winner. Reigning award holder, Corbin Burnes, led the majors with 12.6 strikeouts per nine innings and 6.88 strikeouts to walks, yet bettors are looking elsewhere in 2022. So which pitchers are capturing the imagination (and wallet) of […]
After four tightly contested games, the Dallas Mavericks crushed the Utah Jazz in Game 5 and are one victory away from claiming their first playoff series since winning the 2011 NBA championship. Dallas, the No. 4 seed in the Western Conference, is -700 at BetMGM to win the best-of-7 series against No. 5 Utah (+500). […]
The NBA Playoffs are in full swing, and so are our NBA props. We have one crucial Game 6 contest on Friday, as the Timberwolves look to fend off elimination on their home court. This series has been electric, and we should have an entertaining game to watch on Friday. While the stakes have changed […]
Those hoping for a Game 7 in the first round of the postseason might just get it via the Phoenix Suns vs. New Orleans Pelicans series. Top-seeded Phoenix has a 3-2 lead, but No. 8 seed New Orleans has proved a handful throughout. And the Pelicans are only 2-point Game 6 underdogs on the NBA […]
The Philadelphia 76ers hit a bump, then drove into a pothole, and now they’re trying to make sure they don’t end up in a ditch on the side of the road. The 76ers’ 3-0 series lead against Toronto has narrowed to 3-2, and Philadelphia has to find a way to win Thursday to avoid a […]
We get it. Feb. 13 was so long ago. It’s been 2.5 months without the NFL. And we’ve got another four-plus months until the 2022 regular season kicks off. Thankfully, though, NFL Draft odds are on the board for the next three days, so we’ve got that going for us. Which is nice. Thursday night […]
It’s getaway day across the MLB landscape Thursday, which means a bunch of matinee affairs on the schedule. In fact, just two of 13 games are under the lights, with one of them taking place in Atlanta, where the Cubs and Braves square off in the rubber match of a three-game series. Despite both teams […]
The NBA Playoffs are in full swing and so are our NBA props. We have three more contests scheduled for Thursday, all of which are potential elimination games. The action gets underway with the 76ers vs Raptors at 7 p.m. ET, and the Raptors will be looking to stave off elimination for the third straight […]
Wednesday’s Best Bets went 2-for-3. We are grateful for another winning night, but we could’ve — would’ve, should’ve — gotten our second sweep of the week. Here’s how it played out: In the final game of the night, we needed Golden State’s Andrew Wiggins to go Over 14.5 points against the Denver Nuggets. He had […]

Or college or pro hoops. Rather, the consensus choice probably would be baseball. The reason? Sheer volume. With 30 teams playing 162 […]
