It's been a brutal 0-5 start to the week with my free plays as I just can't seem to cash one right now. That's alright though as streaks (good and bad) can turn in a heartbeat and after a lot of work was put into today's research, I'm confident I'll be coming out ahead with these plays tonight. All lines taken from Pinnacle Sports with bet amounts 'to win' on favorites and flat on underdogs. Play of the Day in Bold MLB pre-All Star Break: 101-107-13 (+$691) MLB Post-All Star Break: 19-22 (+$284) CFL YTD: 5-6 (+$34) MLB plays Pitt/Detroit Over 8.5 (-130) $260 to win $200 The Tigers are still feeling the affects of that 19-inning loss to Toronto on Sunday as they've called up Buck Farmer to make his first MLB start tonight after scheduled starter Rick Porcello was forced to go a few innings late in that Toronto game. Farmer will be in tough against a Pittsburgh lineup that's scoring a lot of runs these days as they have to keep pace with everyone else (except the Cubs) in the NL Central. The young rookie could have some success first time through the order, but after that it'll be rough - if he even gets to that point. The Tigers hitters know the predicament they are in after losing four in a row and need to give Farmer all the help they can. They do have some history with Vance Worley from his time with the Twins and everyone in this lineup who's faced him before has had success - except Miguel Cabrera. I don't think you have to worry about Cabrera eventually hitting a guy, and with his supporting cast sporting [...]

2-1 night +$186, but lost my TOP FREE play, the card tonight is looking pretty good, lots lining up into my favor we'll see how it goes tonight.  I'll get right to it tonight for ya, here is my large FREE card. 1* = $100  TOP FREE PLAY – 48-38-2 (55.8%) (+$3920) PRE-ALLSTAR BREAK MLB YTD 84-87-4 (49.1%) (+$374) POST-ALLSTAR BREAK MLB YTD 17-15-1  (53.1%) (+$486) NFL YTD 1-1 (50%) (+$10) PARLAY’S YTD (1*) – 1-3 (25%) (+$20) YEAR-TO-DATE * - 2* 30-24-1 (55.5%) 3* 65-74-2 (46.7%) 4* 42-39-3 (51.8%) 5* 3-1 (75%) All lines courtesy Pinnacle Sports All lines are "to risk" TOP FREE play in bold Braves/Dodgers UNDER 8 -120 (3*) - Huge under ump in this one he averages 5.8 runs per game, and is 4-17-1 this year.  Dodgers are missing 3 key starters tonight as well.  Take the UNDER Braves ml -124 (2*) - Minor is 3-1 last 4 starts at home and the Braves have won 5 of 7 off a home loss. Rockies/Padres UNDER 7 -118 (3*) - 12-3-1 to the UNDER in the Rockies last 16 road games.  6-13 Under ump tonight and only averages 6.2 runs per game. Pirates ml -120 (2*) - Tigers rotation and bullpen are in pieces cheap price here with a rookie on the hill.  First year players haven't done so good against the Pirates going 1-5 with a 3.48 ERA in 12 starts. Rays ml -120 (2*) - Rays are 11-1 last 12 as road favorites Rays/Texas OVER 9 (3*) - HUGE OVER ump here 80% of the games are over he umps with the average runs at 10.  

We went 2-0 with our premium picks yesterday, but my free card was a forgettable one finishing up 0-3. Rather than vent about what could have been, it's on to tonight board and with every team in action there is plenty to chose from. All lines taken from Pinnacle Sports with bet amounts 'to win' on favorites and flat on underdogs Play of the Day in Bold MLB pre-All Star Break: 101-107-13 (+$691) MLB post-All Star Break: 19-20 (+$853) CFL YTD: 5-6 (+$34) MLB plays Milwaukee/Chicago Over 7 (-123) $369 to win $300 These two played to a 3-1 game in the opener last night, but with a strong over umpire (13-8 O/U) that averages 8.9 runs per game, I believe the script will flip tonight. Both starters in this game have been the beneficiaries of some good run support of late (5/game and 4.7/game) so it's not like their teammates won't back them up tonight. Milwaukee is 4-0 O/U in Peralta's last four starts on the road and has a 5-1 O/U run going when he pitches off of only four days rest. The Brewers are 7-3 O/U in his last 10 starts overall too, and with the Cubs being 23-7-2 O/U in their last 32 against a winning team, this game has too many factors favoring the high side of this total that I can't help but make it my top play today. Kansas City ML (+133) $200 to win $266 Another game that fits a strong strategy we like to use here as Oakland's Jon Lester is coming off a complete game shutout in his last outing. That calls for a fade in his next start and it just so happens he's [...]

A's ml -106 (3*) - Way too much love for the Royals [...]

I took an extended break over the weekend to dive into football research for the NFL and college. We've got a lot of great things lined up for the football season for you here at D Rock Sports so stay tuned in the coming weeks for all the great content. It's back to MLB tonight with 10 games on tonight's board and there are a few games that I really love tonight. All lines taken from Pinnacle Sports with bet amounts 'to win' on favorites and flat on underdogs Play of the Day in Bold MLB pre All Star Break: 101-107-13 (+$691) MLB post All Star Break: 19-17 (+$1583) CFL YTD: 5-6 (+$34) MLB plays Oakland/KC Over 7 (-115) $230 to win $200 The Royals are the hottest team in baseball right now with seven straight wins under their belt and a 15-3 SU run in their last 18 overall. During this seven-game run they haven't scored less than four runs in any contest as they are finally starting to give their starting pitchers some support. Oakland's Sonny Gray has been great all year but he's got roughed up by Tampa last time out and he looks like he's just trying to grind through the dog days of summer here. KC got a lot of momentum rolling now and I like their chances to put up 4+ again tonight. Oakland will do their fair share of scoring as well as they are 4-0 O/U in their last four on the road and they are also 4-0 O/U in their last four as a road favorite. They've got a 5-1-2 O/U run going on the road when the total is between 7 and 8.5 and with tonight's [...]
