Free Picks May 6th

Post: # 26Post Al Capone »

STEVE JANUS

1* Free Sharp Play on Diamondbacks -136

The Diamondbacks (-136) are worth a look as a relatively short home favorite against the Rockies in Friday's MLB action. Arizona has caught fire over the last couple of weeks. Dbacks are 7-2 in their last 9 games and now .500 on the season at 13-13. They have scored at least 5 runs in 4 straight games. They also have one of the top starters on the mound so far in 2022 with Merrill Kelly, who has a 1.27 ERA and 1.024 WHIP in 5 starts. Rockies just aren't the same team on the road, where they are scoring just 3.1 runs/game. Play the Diamondbacks -136!

Jack's Free Pick Friday: Seattle Mariners -124

The Seattle Mariners will be highly motivated for a win tonight after losing four straight and eight of their nine games overall. Their lone victory during this stretch came with Logan Gilbert on the mound, and he will take the ball for them tonight to get them back in the win column.

Gilbert has been one of the most underrated starters in baseball this season and is living up to his massive potential as a top prospect. He has gone 4-0 with a 0.64 ERA and 0.928 WHIP in five starts, allowing just 2 earned runs in 28 innings as the Mariners have gone 5-0 in his five starts.

The Rays will open the game with Matt Wisler, who is 23-33 with a 4.73 ERA in his eight seasons in the big leagues. It's a good time to 'sell high' on the Rays after winning four straight coming into this one. They are getting more respect from the books than they should be against Gilbert because of it.

The Mariners are 11-0 in Gilbert's last 11 starts after he gave up two earned runs or fewer in each of his last two outings coming in. Seattle is 6-1 in its last seven games as a favorite. The Mariners are 7-3 at home this season and scoring 5.9 runs per game. Bet the Mariners Friday.

CALVIN KING

[1%] Free Play on Rockies +138

JIMMY BOYD

1* Free Pick on Brewers/Braves under 8½ +100

WILL ROGERS

The Hurricanes have been on fire, with 10 goals against the Bruins in two games. Boston is missing a key defenseman, and has switched to Swayman in net, looking for some goal-tending inspiration. Swayman has little experience in the playoffs, and was the second choice for much of this season. Carolina is a juggernaut at the moment, but the Bruins may find a bit more offense at home. Total is low, take the over today!

JOHN MARTIN

1 Unit FREE PLAY on Rockies/Diamondbacks UNDER 8.5

Merrill Kelly and Chad Kuhl have been two of the best starters in the National League this season. Kelly is 2-1 with a 1.27 ERA and 1.02 WHIP in five starts this season, while Kuhl is 3-0 with a 1.90 ERA and 0.85 WHIP in four starts. The Diamondbacks are hitting .161 and scoring 2.9 runs per game at home this season. The Rockies are hitting .233 and scoring 3.1 runs per game on the road. The UNDER is 10-2 in Arizona's 12 games with a total of 8.5 to 10 this season. Give me the UNDER.

JEFF ALEXANDER

1* NBA - Heat/76ers FREE PICK on Heat -3

Friday's Free NBA Pick is on the Miami Heat as a 3-point road favorite against the Philadelphia 76ers. This will be Game 3. Miami leads the series 2-0. The Heat won Game 1 by 14 (106-92) and Game 2 by 16 (119-103). Usually the value would be with the team down 0-2 going home for the first time, but I just don't think that is the case.

Philly has been without Embiid for each of the first 2 games and aren't expected to have him for Game 3. The 76ers aren't even remotely close to the same team without him on the floor. Not only is he their best offensive weapon, but he's one of their best defenders. Heat aren't a team to overlook an opponent in any circumstance. Last thing they want to do is not show up and lose this game and then have Embiid return for Game 4. Bet the Heat -3!
