There's no way to sugar coat yesterday's disappointing day here at D Rock Sports as our premiums were shutout (0-3) and even my free play couldn't get there. Those are the days that can really hurt you when you aren't practicing proper money management because 0-fer days will happen and you can't react emotionally and start betting over your head chasing your losses. I'm not looking to do that today, but I do have a couple of free plays on the diamond for you all. All lines taken from Pinnacle Sports with bet amounts 'to win' on favorites and flat on underdogs Play of the Day in Bold Free Play Records MLB Pre-All Star Break: 101-107-13 (+$691) MLB Post-All Star Break: 30-33 (+408) CFL YTD: 6-8 (-$266) NCAAF YTD: 2-1 (+$284) MLB Plays Cincinnati/Baltimore Over 8 (+100) $200 to win $200 It's rare to see the majority of bettors flocking to an 'under' in an Orioles game with the way they can mash the baseball and because of it I have no problem backing the high side of this total tonight. Reds starter Mat Latos has allowed 24 hits over 18 innings of work in his last three outings and that's led to opponents putting 6 runs/game on him. Baltimore is by far the best hitting team of the bunch and we can't forget about the Orioles 10-2-1 O/U record in their last 13 as a home favorite. Finally, Baltimore starter Bud Norris hasn't been sharp either of late as the O's are 5-0 O/U in his last five starts. That means that the Reds will be able to pull their own weight in putting up runs tonight as this game should hit double digits. Houston [...]

I started the weekend strong with college football getting going and I ended it well on Sunday with another 2-0 sweep on my free plays. Hopefully I can keep this momentum rolling as the NFL season is mere days away but on this holiday Monday there are plenty of afternoon MLB games for me to dissect. It's the final month of the regular season in baseball so playoff contenders will either man up or buckle under the pressure and that's something to keep an eye on as the weeks go on. But let's just focus on today and get right to the picks. Don't forget to check out our premium selections as they finished up 9-4 ATS on Saturday and Sunday, banking our clients some nice dough.

It will be a dog fight between them and the Tigers the rest of the month as both battle for that playoff spot and given the Tigers experience in that situation and the Royals inexperience, it will be interesting to see if KC collapses under the pressure this month. They begin a series with the lowly Rangers tonight and this is a series KC must win, but to do so they better bring the sticks with them. Colby Lewis and Yordano Ventura squared off about a [...]

The first Saturday of the college football season was very kind to us here at D Rock Sports as we went a combined 4-0 ATS with D Rock hitting a nice parlay and my free Twitter play on Toledo cashing as well. Premium plays went 6-3 ATS for our clients and with the total on the day being 11-3 ATS with a two-team parlay cashing, our clients and readers padded their bankrolls nicely to start the season. All football season I'll be out on twitter giving out free plays and breaking down games for you (especially in college) so make sure you come find me on twitter @ATSskinner. However, after a great Saturday we can't get to high as we've got to keep plugging away for you and with a few more CFB games on the card tonight, I will definitely have some plays/suggestions for everyone. My free play card is sticking to the diamond though as we've got series finales going off everywhere and some great spots that fit some of our systems here at D Rock sports.

The main reason for that is we've got Tony Randazzo behind the dish and he's 2-13 [...]
