1* Free Pick on Giants/Mariners under 7

Ricky's 1* play on MIN.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- The Twins are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games.

- The Twins are 6-4 in the last 10 head to head meetings.

- Taj Bradley is 5-0 in his last 5 starts for the Twins.

Verdict: The value is on the Underdog.

Free Total Annihilator On Pirates vs Guardians over 7½ -105

(#639) Washington Mystics | ATS | . 

Golden State enters this weekend on an eight game winning streak that has it ranked 2nd in the entire of the WNBA. While the Valkyries should be expected to win this game once again, I don't expect it to be as easy as the oddsmakers are expecting. This line has gone up since it first opened and I believe that Washington's going to be able to make it a game. The Mystics have a winning record themselves and won their latest road game by 17 points. Grab the points. 

Burns' Prediction: 69-64 GSV.

1* Free Pick on Jean-Paul Lebosnoyani +160

The Pirates have the vastly superior offense and I like the pitching edge they have here with Braxton Ashcraft opposing Logan Allen in Game 2 of this Saturday doubleheader. 

Ashcraft has been very solid going 9-3 with a 3.49 ERA and 1.11 ratio. He has a low bar to clear here as the Guardians are last in runs, 29th in OPS and 28th in batting average.

Allen has thrown just four innings this season. This will be his first start of the year. He had a 4.25 ERA and 1.40 ratio last season and a 5.73 ERA and 1.58 WHIP in 2024.

In vast contrast to the Guardians, the Pirates rank either for first or second in runs, OPS and batting average. They have scored six or more runs in 10 of their last 15 games. 

Jack's Free Pick Saturday: Dodgers/Yankees OVER 9

Rust was a factor offensively coming out of the All-Star Break for both teams in Game 1 of this series.  I fully expect the bats to get going in Game 2 tonight given the forecast, which is calling for double-digit wins blowing out to left at Yankee Stadium.

Emmet Sheehan has been a weak link in this Los Angeles rotation.  He is 4-6 with a 4.81 ERA in 17 starts, including 2-3 with a 5.05 ERA in seven road starts where he has allowed 20 earned runs and 9 homers in 35 2/3 innings away from home.

Ryan Weathers is 3-7 with a 4.15 ERA in 18 starts this season while allowing 45 earned runs and 16 homers in 97 2/3 innings.  He does not enjoy facing the Dodgers, going 0-3 with a 5.40 ERA in six career starts against them.  Weathers has allowed 12 earned runs and 5 homers in 16 innings in his last three starts against Los Angeles.  

The Dodgers are scoring 5.2 runs per game this season with one of the best offenses in baseball.  The Yankees are scoring 4.8 runs per game this season.  They have managed to get the bats going even without Aaron Judge of late, scoring 4 runs or more in eight of their last 11 games.  The OVER is 5-1 in the last six meetings between the Yankees and Dodgers with 10 or more combined runs in five of them.  Bet the OVER in this game Saturday.

Mariners -135

Seattle and San Francisco play in game 2 and the value is on Seattle. The Mariners send out Bryan Woo, who has consistently worked deep into games. He’s typically giving this staff 5-6 innings of work and this Giants offense is just too inconsistent. San Francisco counters with Logan Webb, who is just 5-7. He hasn’t got the run support and has struggled with his command at times. That won’t bode well against Seattle, who will bounce back in a big way. Locking this in early.

1* Free Play on Pirates +106

1* Free Pick on Yankees +101

I'm getting the Yankees at +101 in a spot where the market is pricing them like a wounded animal.

They are wounded.

But Emmet Sheehan is not the guy to make them pay.

The opposition case is obvious.

Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton are both on the 10-day IL, and that gutted lineup is why New York is even money at home against a 62-36 Dodgers team.

I get it.

I'm still on the Yankees at this number.

Here's why.

Dodgers starter Emmet Sheehan is running a 4.81 ERA and hasn't finished 6 innings in any of his last 5 starts.

He got tagged for 6 earned runs in 3.1 innings against Baltimore on June 21.

His last outing was 5.1 innings of 2-run ball against Arizona, useful but not dominant.

The floor with him is genuinely low, and he's throwing in Yankee Stadium with a short porch in right.

Yankees lefty Ryan Weathers has quietly been steady.

His 4.15 ERA is better than his 4.39 xERA suggests he deserves, but 3 of his last 5 starts have gone 5.1 innings or more with 1 earned run allowed.

He's given the bullpen a chance to work every time out.

Then there's the weather. 100% chance of moderate rain at first pitch.

That's a shortened-game, bullpen-game, weird-variance environment.

Variance helps the underdog every time.

At +101, I only need this to be a coin flip.

It's closer to that than the market thinks.

I like the Yankees

San Francisco at Seatte 8:10 ET

Giants over Mariners - I have no doubt that the way these starters have been pitching that the Giants Logan Webb (5-7, 3.86 ERA has and advantage over Mariners’ starter Bryan Woo (7-6, 4.23). Woo was the AL ERS leader last season but hasn’t been as sharp this year. Webb had seven straight starts surrendered where he allow two runs once and seven total runs. But, the last two time out he has struggled giving up 12 runs in 10 innings. He bounces back here. Take SAN FRANCISCO!

Saturday's Free MLB Pick

PLAY ON: Red Sox -110

The numbers on Montreal at Calgary this weekend are screaming Over and after spending real time digging into the season-long trends I am locking it in with genuine conviction. Calgary sits atop the league in scoring at roughly 38.8 points per game while Montreal has held steady around 34.0 giving their combined average of 72.8 points a clear cushion over the posted total in the 62.5 to 64 range even before factoring in pace or venue specifics. Last week these same clubs combined for 67 points in a 37-30 thriller and now they flip the home-and-away script on a short week which historically keeps offenses aggressive rather than conservative in the CFL.

Pace plays a massive role here too as both teams rank among the league leaders in plays run and yards per play which directly fuels higher totals. Calgary has been averaging well above the CFL norm in offensive snaps and explosive plays per drive pushing their scoring rate even higher while Montreal’s balanced attack maintains a solid tempo that prevents defenses from catching breath. Let PC P_C PC represent Calgary’s points per game and PM P_M PM Montreal’s so their raw sum PC+PM≈72.8 P_C + P_M \approx 72.8 PC+PM≈72.8 already clears the line by roughly 8 to 10 points. Apply a conservative 12 percent discount for any defensive adjustments or fatigue 72.8×0.88=64.064 72.8 \times 0.88 = 64.064 72.8×0.88=64.064 and it still lands comfortably over the number while the actual recent head-to-head suggests the true expected total sits closer to 66 or higher.

The math gets even more compelling when you layer in league-wide scoring trends because CFL games this season have trended toward higher combined totals especially in interdivisional matchups featuring top offenses and short-rest scenarios. Calgary’s offense has outpaced the league average by more than 8 points per game in several outings and Montreal’s ability to match that production keeps both sides of the ball moving the chains efficiently. Ottawa and Winnipeg projects lean closer to their lower totals this week because of defensive-minded matchups and Toronto-Hamilton feels more contained but this Western clash features the two most productive attacks on the board right now. Short weeks tend to produce these kinds of wide-open affairs because coaches lean into familiar schemes instead of overcomplicating things and the data backs that up across recent seasons.

I have been tracking these CFL patterns long enough to spot when the stats align this cleanly and this one feels right in a way that makes you smile as a bettor. Calgary’s scoring rate is not luck it is sustained execution and Montreal has shown they can hang right there without the wild variance that buries other picks. The Over here matches the actual environments these teams have created all year and it is the side that carries the real value when you run the numbers.

My selection is on Miami over Milwaukee at 4:10 pm et on Saturday.

The Marlins fell just short in the opener of this series last night but if there's a chance to steal a game, I think this is the spot as they have the starting pitching edge with Max Meyer going against Shane Drohan. Miami's offense remains underrated and that won't change after it scored just one run in last night's contest. Starter Max Meyer has quietly put together a 9-1 record this season to go along with a 3.52 FIP and 1.11 WHIP. You could argue that Brewers starter Shane Drohan has been even better in some regards but we've seen a bit of a wobble from the left-hander lately as he has allowed six earned runs on 17 hits over his last three outings. The Marlins have been terrific against southpaw pitching this season and I'm confident they can get to Meyer and secure a bounce-back victory here. Take Miami (8*).

Nationals vs Athletics MLB Free Pick July 18, 2026

The Angle(s): We won with the Washington Nationals as a 4% TOP PLAY in last night's 23-4 beatdown of Oakland, who has just one win over its last 15 games.

This will mark Washington's first look at Athletics right-hander J.T. Ginn (7-6, 3.67 ERA), who enters this contest in the midst of a severe command slump. Ginn was touched up for eight runs on six hits and two walks in his last outing, and he has struggled mightily with his control lately, issuing 13 free passes across his last five starts.

With Ginn's underlying metrics signaling vulnerability against disciplined lineups, the edge goes to the visiting Nationals who are 29-18 on the road while Oakland is 19-29 at home.  

The Bet: Nationals (3%).

At Professionalsportspicks we see a future where those handicapping sports without advanced analytics and data-driven strategies will be left behind. Our data-driven picks use data integration, search and discovery, and knowledge management along with collaboration with our in-house handicappers. By isolating relevant trends, removing human bias, and targeting only lines with a positive expected value above a certain threshold, our data-driven picks promise to outperform any and all human competitors.

Our models suggest that the value is on the favorite. France has won 7 of their last 8 games. France has scored 10 goals in their last 5 games.

For my best free pick on the board for Saturday I am looking at the CFL and the Toronto Argonauts at the Hamilton Tigers Cats. Very telling story when two teams with the same record and the road team is favored by close to 2 field goals here. Hamilton has won and covered 5 of the last 6 times these two teams have met up which should draw in a fair amount of bandwagon bettors. Toronto the far better team we have seen this team go just 1-3 ATS but last 3 games were against top notch talent and they do have the rest advantage here against the Tiger Cats.

***DO NOT MISS MY TITANIUM BEST BET TODAY I AM 171-125 58% OVER THE LAST 296 TITANIUMS***

The Phillies have the superior record and the stronger starting pitcher on paper, but New York offers substantial value at +150 or better. Currently, it’s a few cents less at some shops, but still great value as a free pick.

The foundation is the 11.73-game Luck Gap. Philadelphia owns a +2.45 Luck Rating, while the Mets sit dead last at -9.28. Under the Luck Gap theory, Philadelphia has performed better than its underlying results warrant, while New York has been dramatically undervalued.

Sean Manaea’s overall 4.56 ERA is misleading. He has allowed only two earned runs in four of his last five starts, including two earned over 5⅓ innings in a 6-4 victory at Philadelphia on June 18. He also enters off his strongest start of the season: seven innings, two earned runs, six strikeouts and one walk against Kansas City.

Jesús Luzardo is pitching exceptionally well, but his extreme splits make laying this price dangerous. Luzardo has a 6.60 home ERA and 1.38 WHIP, compared with a 1.54 ERA on the road. The Mets also limited him to five innings while scoring one run and drawing three walks on June 28. Juan Soto is confirmed in New York’s lineup and owns a 1.041 career OPS in 29 plate appearances against Luzardo. 

The most significant advantage comes after the starters. New York’s bullpen has a 3.35 ERA and 1.20 WHIP, compared with Philadelphia’s 4.45 ERA and 1.34 WHIP. The Phillies’ relief staff has been especially vulnerable recently, surrendering 15 runs—14 earned—in 11⅓ innings across its last three games. Philadelphia is also missing multiple relievers, including Brad Keller, Tanner Banks and Lou Trivino; Keller has reportedly been lost for the season with a UCL tear. 

New York has already won four of seven 2026 meetings, including Thursday’s 4-1 victory in Philadelphia. Francisco Alvarez supplied two home runs in that win, while the Mets’ bullpen protected the lead.

There is also a potential weather variable, with thunderstorms forecast around the scheduled first pitch. Any interruption that shortens Luzardo’s appearance would magnify New York’s bullpen advantage.

Bottom line: Luzardo is the biggest obstacle, but the price overstates Philadelphia’s overall advantage. The massive Luck Gap, Luzardo’s poor home splits, Manaea’s recent improvement, Soto’s matchup history and New York’s considerable bullpen edge make Mets +150 or better the value side.
