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.
- Minnesota is 4-2 SU in its last 6 games against an opponent in the American League.
- Houston is 3-8 SU in its last 11 games against an opponent in the American League Central Division.
- Minnesota is 6-4 in their last 10 games.
Verdict: The value is on the home favorite.

FRANK’S CUTTING ROOM FLOOR FOR WEDNESDAY, 5/20:
My “Cutting Room Floor” plays are the situations I considered the closest to being worthy of investment but did not make the “final cut” for my official plays today for subscribers. The last play I cut for Wednesday afternoon is with Over the Total in the Europa League championship match between Freiburg and Aston Villa being played on a neutral pitch at Besiktas Park in Istanbul, Turkey. SC Freiburg advanced to the finals with a 3-1 win at home against Sporting Braga on May 7th, which eked out a 4-3 aggregate score victory. The Black Forest have played three matches in a row across all competitions where at least four combined goals were scored. They have scored nine times and conceded seven goals during that span. Aston Villa reached the finals of the Europa League with their 4-0 victory at home against Nottingham Forest on May 7th, which resulted in a 4-1 aggregate score. The Villans have played three straight matches where four or more combined goals were scored. They have scored ten times during that stretch but conceded multiple goals in two of those matches. Five of the last seven Europa League finals matches saw both teams score. Play the Over. Best of luck — Frank.

Hump Day POWER Card up with NHL TOTAL OF THE MONTH + 2X PERFECT WNBA and NBA Headline- Soccer Play below
The Europa League Finals Play is on Aston Villa at 3 eastern over SC Freiburg. We will back the English Power house squad to win. The game should be tight but Villa will be on the attack throughout and likely hold the ball for most of the game. Freiburg is very tough and can likely find the back of the net here as Villa while lethal on the attack can be broken down especially on set pieces. Another nice play here would be for both teams to score. With more depth and a better overall squad we will back Villa to win it. GL Rob V-

Wednesday's Free MLB Pick
PLAY ON: Red Sox/Royals UNDER 8
Sean Murphy
My selection is on the 'under' between Vegas and Colorado at 8 pm et on Wednesday.
The Avalanche are coming off an incredibly high-scoring series against the Wild and ride a two-game 'over' streak into Game 1 of the Western Conference Final against the Golden Knights. Of note, Colorado has posted just two 'over' streaks lasting more than two games dating back to January 21st. Meanwhile, Vegas checks in off consecutive 'under' results. It's worth mentioning that 'unders' have come in bunches for the Knights in recent weeks and months as they have reeled off at least three straight 'under' results on four different occasions since February 27th. The last time these two teams matched up on April 11th right here in Denver, they produced just four goals in regulation time in a 3-2 Knights overtime victory. Take the under (8*).

Reds vs Phillies MLB Free Pick
The Angle(s): The Philadelphia Phillies came into yesterday’s game on a five-game winning streak, but that meant nothing as they fell 4–1. Odds are their bats stay quiet again, this time against left-hander Andrew Abbott (3–2, 4.21 ERA), who has allowed just one run on 11 hits over 16 2/3 innings across three starts in May. Philadelphia will turn to Aaron Nola (2–3, 5.91 ERA), who is not having a great season and has issued five walks while serving up three homers over his last two starts alone
The Bet: REDS +1½ (3%).

For my best free pick on the board here for Wednesday I am looking at the WNBA and the Seattle Sound hosting the Connecticut Sun. Sun come into this one 0-4 on the season but this team has covered 2 in a row and look to be showing some fight this year. Seattle is a shell of a team and will give the Sun competition for the worst team in the WNBA look for this game to be a one possession game any way you slice it.
Play on the CONNECTICUT SUN plus the points rotation #619
