| Marc David | 2:10 PM Cincinnati Reds vs Minnesota Twins MLB 04/18 |
|---|---|
| Pick: Under 8 Marc David Sports Free Pick We really like the under in this matchup. Twins starter Taj Bradley has conceded just three earned runs on 19 hits against 29 strikeouts over 21.6 innings, and three of four starts went stayed under the total. Cincy left-hander Andrew Abbott was roughed up by the Halos last time out but a top-tier pitcher like Abbott knows how to rise up after getting rocked. Both bullpens are reliable, with the Reds' boasting the very best ERA in baseball this season. This is a FREE PLAY on the UNDER. | |
| Kyle Hunter | 6:10 PM Baltimore Orioles vs Cleveland Guardians MLB 04/18 |
|---|---|
| Pick: Cleveland Guardians -130 Free Play on Cleveland ML- The Cleveland Guardians have the much better starting pitcher here. Gavin Williams occasionally walks too many, but he has tremendous stuff and is good at keeping the ball down in the zone. Baltimore's offense is overrated, and I like the Cleveland bullpen much more than the Orioles bullpen. I'll lay the short price. | |
| Mike Lundin | 6:10 PM Baltimore Orioles vs Cleveland Guardians MLB 04/18 |
|---|---|
| Pick: Baltimore Orioles 121 Orioles vs Guardians MLB Free Pick The Angle(s): The Cleveland Guardians are 2-9 coming off a win, 1-7 facing the same opponent they just defeated. Orioles right-hander Dean Kremer (0-0, 3.60 ERA) held Cleveland to one run in 5 1/3 innings of a 9-1 Orioles win last season while Guardians' righty Gavin Williams gave up five runs in 6 2/3 innings of the very same game. The Bet: ORIOLES (3%). For today's premium pick action, Mike's putting a 19-9 (68%) HEATED with top-rated (4-5%) NBA sides to the test with his 4% Hawks/Knicks NBA TOP PLAY of the Day, and he also has MLB on the menu. | |
| Alex Smart | 6:00 PM Gilbert Burns vs Mike Malott MMA 04/18 |
|---|---|
| Pick: Gilbert Burns 235 Oh boy, Saturday night in Winnipeg is shaping up to be one of those fun, loud Canadian cards where the crowd gets rowdy early and the main event could actually deliver some drama. Headlining it is Mike Malott, the hometown hero on a three-fight win streak, taking on Gilbert “Durinho” Burns in a five-round welterweight scrap. On paper, Malott’s the big favorite, younger, coming off solid wins, fighting in front of his people. But if you’ve followed the division long enough, you know these exact setups have a habit of biting favorites in the ass when a crafty veteran like Burns smells blood at plus money. Here’s the thing that keeps jumping out at me: over the last few years in welterweight main events and high-profile five-rounders, we’ve seen this quiet trend where battle-tested guys with legit grappling pedigrees hang around, survive the early storm, and start dictating things once the pace slows. Burns is basically the poster child for that. At 39 he’s on a tough four-fight skid, sure, and he’s taken some real shots lately, but the numbers still show a guy who averages over two takedowns per 15 minutes and has nine career submissions on his record. That’s not just fluff,that’s chain-wrestling and mat control that can wear even explosive fighters down when the rounds pile up. Malott’s no joke. He’s put together wins with both power and decisions, and his finishing rate is impressive. But look closer at how some of these hometown prospects have fared when the spotlight gets bright and the fight goes long. His average fight time sits noticeably shorter than Burns’, and we’ve watched similar Canadian or rising local favorites get dragged into deep waters where experience and late-round IQ start to matter way more than the first-round pop. Burns has been in there with killers,former champs, top contenders—and he’s shown time and again he can mix striking pressure with grappling chains that force opponents to burn energy scrambling. Another angle that’s paid off more than people remember: when veterans with elite BJJ step up as dogs in welterweight spots, especially against guys still building their resume at the highest level, the plus money has cashed enough times to notice. It’s not about age alone; it’s about that extra octagon time teaching you exactly when to slow things down, when to clinch, and when to turn a scramble into control. Malott brings a reach advantage and solid volume, but if Burns can force the kind of extended grappling exchanges he thrives in, we could see the kind of fatigue that’s shown up in other prospects’ longer fights. Don’t get me wrong, the Winnipeg crowd is going to be electric, and Malott could come out firing and make this a short night. That’s always the risk with these spots. But if you zoom out on recent welterweight trends, the veteran dog with the grappling edge has been a live play way more often than the odds suggest, particularly when the favorite is still proving he can handle 25 minutes against someone who’s seen every look. Bottom line, this is the kind of underdog I actually get excited about,not some random longshot, but a spot where the plus money feels earned because of the matchup dynamics and the way these fights tend to play out historically. Burns might not be the flashiest pick on the card, but for my money, he’s the most interesting one when the cage door shuts. Like always, fights are chaos and anything can happen once they touch gloves. Should be a good one. | |
| Brian Bitler | 1:00 PM Toronto Raptors vs Cleveland Cavaliers NBA 04/18 |
|---|---|
| Pick: Cleveland Cavaliers -8 For my best free pick on the board here for Saturday I am looking at NBA playoff basketball and the Cleveland Cavaliers locking up with the Toronto Raptors. Yes the Cavs have been one of the worst ATS teams in the NBA this season but this Raptors team we have seen time and time again not be able to step up and big games. Sure this team has been solid versus the bottom feeders in the NBA but look for them to fall apart in the second half versus this deep and determined Cavs squad. Play on the Cleveland Cavaliers lay the points rotation #578 | |
| Chip Chirimbes | 8:30 PM Houston Rockets vs Los Angeles Lakers NBA 04/18 |

| Alex Smart | 8:30 PM Houston Rockets vs Los Angeles Lakers NBA 04/18 |
|---|---|
| Pick: Under 207.5 Man, Saturday is finally here, the 2026 NBA playoffs tip off with four Game 1s, and if I'm looking for a clean totals play, I'm zeroing in on the nightcap in Los Angeles: Houston Rockets at Los Angeles Lakers. I'm on the Under in what shapes up as the lowest total of the evening, and the more I think about it, the more this one feels like classic opening-night basketball. The specific angle that grabs me is the "Game 1 defensive clampdown." Teams come out extra physical right away. They scout the hell out of each other, eliminate transition buckets, and turn games into slow, grinding half-court sets. You see it every year: pace drops by around four possessions per game compared to the regular season, and overall scoring usually falls by about five to six points per team. It's not that the talent disappears — it's that defenses actually show up and make everything harder. Houston and LA fit this mold perfectly. The Rockets have been one of the league's best defensive outfits all year, ranking top-six in defensive rating while leading the NBA in offensive rebounding. They thrive on forcing opponents into tough, contested shots and winning the glass. The Lakers, even with their ups and downs, have shown they can lock in and play lower-possession games when the lights get brighter. Their regular-season meetings against Houston were exactly the kind of ugly, physical battles you'd expect , think games ending in the low 190s or tight 200s, with lots of rebounding wars and not a ton of easy fast-break points. History really backs this up. Over the last six playoff seasons, home Game 1s have gone Under the total at a 33-15 clip , that's about 69%. In the broader first round, unders have been the profitable side in lower-total games especially. And when you look at playoff basketball overall, shooting percentages dip (especially from midrange and corners), teams take fewer restricted-area attempts, and the game just slows down as everyone tries to set the tone for the series. This Lakers-Rockets total sits well below the other openers for good reason. You're not getting the potential track-meet feel of some of the other matchups. Instead, you've got two clubs built for rebounding slugfests and deliberate offense. Add in the usual playoff jitters and extra defensive attention in Game 1, and you've got a strong setup for a lower-scoring night. Look, this pick isn't going to light up the timeline or anything , the other games have higher lines that match how those teams played all season. But if you're strictly shopping totals on opening night, this feels like the smartest, cleanest spot. I've watched enough of these series starters to know: teams often come out trying to stop the other side first, and the points come harder than people expect. Bottom line for me? Expect a tight, physical, half-court grind in LA on Saturday. The under has treated bettors well in these exact situations for years, and the way both these rosters are constructed only makes it more appealing. | |
| Red Dog Sports | 10:00 AM Sheffield Wednesday vs Charlton SOC 04/18 |
|---|---|
| Pick: Charlton -133 Charlton -133 I think we see a 2-1 score in this soccer match set for Saturday in England. Be sure to check out our plays between $10 and $20 this spring. | |
| Red Dog Sports | 10:00 AM Stevenage vs Lincoln SOC 04/18 |
|---|---|
| Pick: Lincoln 156 Lincoln +156 Lincoln is #1 in the table but is playing on the road. Small play on the visitors at +156. I hope to see a 1-0 or 2-1 score on Saturday morning. Be sure to check us out as we are #2 in soccer and #2 overall in the past week in all sports. | |
| Red Dog Sports | 1:00 PM Toronto vs Austin FC SOC 04/18 |
|---|---|
| Pick: Toronto -104 Toronto -104 I think we see a 2-1 score in this MLS soccer match played today at 1pm. | |
| Alex Smart | 4:30 PM Colorado Rapids vs Inter Miami SOC 04/18 |
|---|---|
| Pick: Over 3 If you’re flipping through today’s MLS slate looking for a totals bet that actually has some legs (instead of the usual coin-flip nonsense), put a circle around Over 3 to 3.5 goals in Colorado Rapids vs Inter Miami. Man, what keeps dragging me back to this one is that classic Mile High headache, literally. Games up in Denver have this annoying habit of turning into full-on track meets once the oxygen gets thin, especially when a home team that attacks like they stole something runs into visitors packing serious firepower. Colorado has been straight-up silly at Empower Field lately. They’re averaging well over three goals scored per home game this season, and yeah, that includes dropping a chaotic 6-2 bomb not too long ago where the scoreboard looked like it was broken. These guys come out guns blazing, and there’s just something about that thinner air that turns opponents’ legs to spaghetti in the second half. Suddenly there’s extra space, tired defenders lunging at shadows, and late goals flying in from nowhere. It’s not some random fluke , it’s become their home recipe: aggressive from minute one, rarely a snooze-fest. Miami, for their part, isn’t rolling up with a parked bus either. Even on the road during this recent unbeaten run, they’ve been in a bunch of messy, back-and-forth scraps, you know, the 2-2 or 3-2 variety where both sides are trading chances like trading cards. Throw Miami’s attacking pieces into the mix with Colorado’s home scoring explosion, and suddenly four (or more) goals doesn’t feel like a stretch… it feels almost inevitable. Add in the longer-running MLS trend that altitude games in Denver love producing end-to-end chaos and second-half drama, and this matchup just screams “over.” The line isn’t some ridiculous chase either , it’s sitting right where these Rapids home dates have been landing most of the year. For my money, this is the cleanest totals story on the whole slate: home attacking form meets venue weirdness meets a visitor who actually plays open soccer. Look, MLS can still troll you with a random red card or one of those weird 1-0 grinders that make you question your life choices. But if you’re firing a totals ticket today, this one at least comes with a plot that makes sense. Kickoff is 4:30 PM Eastern (2:30 local in Denver). Have fun with it, but bet smart , and maybe keep some oxygen nearby if you’re watching from sea level. Take the over - breath deeply | |
