Stephen Nover
The Rockies have the worst road record in the National League at 48-73. That includes an NL-worst 21-41 road record.
The Giants are 22-40 on the road, but a far more respectable 28-31 at home. I find this price low enough to back San Francisco, especially with the Rockies pitching Kyle Freeland.
Freeland has actually been worse on the road than when pitching at Coors Field. He is 0-7 with a 7.81 away ERA.
The Giants have not allowed more than three earned runs in four of their last six games. They are starting Landen Roupp. He is far from special, but he has a 4.00 home ERA and gave up one run to the Tigers at home in his last start spanning 5 1/3 innings.
Roupp is superior to Freeland and the Giants have the better bullpen.
(Editor's note: Stephen Nover is 22-10-1 on his last 33 baseball premium plays and has a Friday Big Ticket in addition to this free selection.)
William Burns
(#118) New York Jets | ATS | .
I still liked the Jets in this opening preseason game even before HC Aaron Glenn announced that everyone is playing. Because of that, the line has jumped up drastically from what it opened at. That being said, I'm not too worried about that. New York dominated its opening preseason game last season against the Packers & I expect it to start strong again.
Tampa Bay will not play its starters here in the preseason opener on Friday evening. I get that there's a lot of young talent in each team, making this an interesting game. But, Todd Bowles has a 5-7 ATS record over his past 12 preseason games & I don't see him having much success in this game. Take the Jets minus the points.
Burns' Prediction: 30-14 Jets.

Friday Card has the NFLX TOTAL OF THE MONTH Broncos vs Falcons along with a 100% Side play n the Commanders vs Dolphins game. There is a 16-1 Canadian Footbal League Play and MLB. Comp play below
The WNBA Comp play for Friday is on the Under in the Portland at Seattle game at 10 eastern. Rob notes that home favorites like Seattle that have same season triple loss revenge are perfect to the under if the total is higher than 165. In the three games 2 have stayed under. Portland comes in off 5 straight home games and dogs in this role that are under.500 where the total is 160 or more are 9 of 12 to the under. Look for this one to stay under the total- GL Rob V

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. MLS Soccer Take #209810 Atlanta over New York Red Bulls (7:30 p.m. EST, Saturday August 15) We think this is a great spot for Atlanta. They have not been playing their best lately but this will be a homecoming for them as they have not played a home match since May 9, before the World Cup. Even though they lost last time out, we liked what we saw from them at Philly. They were up by two goals most of the match vs the Union but they were a man down and Philadelphia scored two goals in extra time to steal three points. As we stated, Atlanta has not played at home in a long time and we think this return will give them an extra burst of energy and it’s not like the Red Bulls are a great side. They are quite far above Atlanta in the standings but have a -10 goal differential compared to -14 for Atlanta, who have faced a real tough schedule on this road trip. It’s telling that Atlanta is a decent favorite here with their recent performances, and we think this is an amazing spot for them to pick up three points and some momentum for the second half of the season in front of the home fans.
