Juan Carlos Flores
Recommended Bet: Rosario Central +185
Ricky Tran
Ricky's 1* play on TOR.
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 Blue Jays are 7-3 in their last 10 games.
- The Yankees are 2-4 in their last 6 games.
- The Blue Jays are 5-2 in the last 7 head to head meetings.
Verdict: The value is on the home favorite.

Play On: Boston -114
The Boston Red Sox take on the Pirates in Pittsburgh on Sunday afternoon. Boston is 67-57 SU overall this year while Pittsburgh comes in with a 60-65 SU overall record on the season. Boston is 37-17 overall over the past 2 months. Boston is 25-11 this year on the road when the money line is +125 to -125. Pittsburgh is 11-26 this year against left handed starters. Patrick Sandoval has a 2.08 ERA in day games this season while Lake Bachar is 0-1 with a 7.66 ERA in day games this year. We'll recommend a small play on Boston today! Thanks and good luck, Rocky

Sunday's Free MLB Pick
PLAY ON: Cubs -1.5 (+120)
Sean Murphy
My selection is on Chicago over Detroit at 1:40 pm et on Sunday.
We'll take a flyer on the White Sox at a very reasonable price on Sunday as they send Sean Burke to the hill against Drew Anderson of the Tigers. Burke deserved better in his most recent start as he failed to collect a win despite allowing just one earned run on three hits over seven innings against the Reds. With a 3.31 FIP and 1.08 WHIP on the season, Burke is as underrated as they come in terms of starting pitchers. Little can be expected of Tigers starter Anderson. He's not a good candidate to work deep into the ball game against a White Sox lineup that can wear you out. The price is right to back Chicago as it continues its playoff push. Take Chicago (8*).
Mike Lundin
Red Sox vs Pirates MLB Free Pick
The Angle(s): This looks like a prime spot to fade the Pittsburgh Pirates, who were shut out Saturday and continue to struggle immensely against left-handed pitching, sitting at just 11-24 (-43% ROI) versus southpaw starters this season. Boston turns to left-hander Patrick Sandoval (1-1, 3.30 ERA), and the Red Sox have won four of his five starts since he entered the rotation. Sandoval held Pittsburgh scoreless over seven dominant frames in his lone previous career start against them.
The Pirates are closing out the week relying heavily on a taxed bullpen game. Their middle relief corps has shown noticeable strain recently, giving Boston's lineup plenty of late-game advantages to exploit.
The Bet: Red Sox (3%).
After a 2-2 MLB Saturday (+ a free pick winner), Sunday belongs to Mike Lundin. The sharpest mind in the room is releasing a 3-pick MLB premium package built around a 4% TOTAL TOP PLAY (9-4 MLB Totals Run), plus two more money plays ready to fire. Get the full arsenal at a huge discount compared to locking each pick separately. ALL 3 GAMES GOES OFF THE BOARD BEFORE 2 PM ET. Grab the MLB MULTI-PICK PACK DEAL before it disappears.

PSP Data Driven 1* Twins +1.5.
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 Underdog. The Twins has won 6 of their last 9 games. Andrew Painter is 1-4 in his last 5 starts for the Phillies.
