At 9 pm, our selection is on the Ottawa Redblacks + the points over Edmonton.  The Elks have been installed as a big home favorite tonight vs. the winless, 0-4 Redblacks.  Unfortunately, for Edmonton, it is a wallet-busting 51-81 ATS when unrested, and favored in the regular season.  It's true that Edmonton already went into Ottawa and defeated the Redblacks, 29-21.  But underdogs priced from +3 to +14 points have gone 210-155 ATS vs. unrested foes when playing with revenge from a loss earlier in the season.  Grab the points with Ottawa.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 1:40 pm, our selection is on the Cleveland Guardians over the Minnesota Twins.  At 9-4 with a 3.89 ERA in 18 starts, you can consider Guardians' starter Gavin Williams' omission from the AL All Star Roster as a mild snub.  One of the things that probably hurt the 26-year-old righthander's chances is that Williams hasn't won a start in over a month (June 3).  But he is also third in the League with 123 strikeouts (in just 106 1/3 innings) and the two players in front of him in that category (Dylan Cease and Cam Schlittler) both received invitations to the Mid-Summer Classic.  Williams will get his 19th start of the season this afternoon and it will come against a Twins team that he already faced once this season (at home).  But now Williams gets them at Target Field, where he is 2-0 with 1.38 ERA and 0.69 WHIP in three career starts.  Williams is also 13-7 with a 2.79 ERA in 33 daytime starts in his career (compared to a 14-17 record with a 4.25 ERA in 48 starts under the lights).  Take the Guardians.  As always, good luck...Al McMordie

At 7:40 pm, our selection is on the Chicago White Sox over the Boston Red Sox.  It's the battle of the Sox and how many times in the past can you remember when Chicago (AL) played Boston and the team from the Windy City was the one with the winning record?  That's the situation midway through the 2026 season as the White Sox are 47-43 and in first place in their division while the Red Sox are 41-48 and very near the cellar of theirs.  And while it's the Red Sox who have a starter that was named to next week's All Star Game (Ranger Suarez), it's the White Sox who have one who is perhaps more deserving and considered one of the biggest snubs for the AL this year.  Davis Martin will make his 18th start of the season and the 29-year-old RHP is 9-3 with a 3.08 ERA with 90 strikeouts and 29 walks in 96 1/3 innings.  Those are certainly All Star-caliber numbers in just about anyone's book but Martin was hardly known prior to this season and that probably was a factor in his snub.  Martin is 5-0 with a sparkling 0.88 ERA in seven home starts this season, and the White Sox are a perfect 7-0 in those games.  Take Chicago.  As always, good luck...Al McMordie.
 
7/8/2026 - WNBAWINNER
At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Connecticut Sun + the points over Minnesota.  We played on Connecticut as a double-digit road underdog on Monday, and got the $$$ with a 90-89 upset win.  This is the second of back-to-back meetings between these teams, with tonight's game being played in Uncasville.  We'll take Connecticut once again, as home dogs off outright wins as double-digit underdogs, have cashed 73.5%.  Even better:  Connecticut is 53-37 ATS as home dogs in the regular season, including 11-3 ATS off an upset win.  The Sun are currently riding a 4-game ATS win streak, and we'll look for them to make it five-in-a-row this evening.  Grab the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
 
7/7/2026 - WNBAWINNER
At 10 pm, our selection is on the Chicago Sky + the points over the Phoenix Mercury.  The Mercury are 8-13 this season, but are on a 3-game SU/ATS win streak.  Unfortunately, rested, sub-.400 teams are a soft 48-74-2 ATS off back-to-back SU/ATS wins.  Chicago also falls into 135-84-3 and 93-58-5 ATS systems of mine.  Grab the points with the Sky.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 7:10 pm, our selection is on the Philadelphia Phillies over the Cincinnati Reds.  Sometimes it's the teams you worry about the least who turn out to be the biggest problems.  What should have been a three game sweep for Philly in KC turned out to be a disaster, as the Royals took two of the games including Monday's embarrassing 15-1 rout.  Cristian Sanchez -- just announced as an All-Star -- suffered his worst loss of the season in Monday's shellacking.  Philly is sending five players to the Mid-Summer classic, although only one of their three named hitters (Brandon Marsh) will be starting.  Not going to the All-Star game (at least not as of now) is Zack Wheeler.  The 36-year-old RHP did get a late start to the season, but since he came back, Wheeler has been as good as any pitcher in the NL, and deserves to go to his fourth All-Star game.  In 13 starts, Wheeler is 8-1 with a 2.36 ERA and 0.94 WHIP with 84 strikeouts and 20 walks in 80 innings.  In nine career starts vs. the Reds, Wheeler is 3-2 with a 2.35 ERA and 0.98 WHIP with 64 strikeouts and 18 walks in 57 1/3 innings.  Take the Phils.  As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Connecticut Sun + the points over the Minnesota Lynx.  The Sun come into this game off ATS wins in each of their last three games, and have been installed as a huge underdog tonight vs. the Lynx.  We'll happily grab the points, as double-digit underdogs have gone 206-137-4 ATS in the regular season vs. non-division foes.  Even better:  if our underdog enters off a point spread win, then our 206-137 stat improves to 88-47-3 ATS.  Take Connecticut + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 6:40 pm, our selection is on the New York Yankees over the Tampa Bay Rays.  There were plenty of fireworks this weekend for the USA's 250th, but one place where there hasn't been many fireworks lately is in the Bronx.  That is, when it comes to the Yankees offense anyway.  The homestand that the Yanks' just completed was, well...a dud.  In six games at Yankee Stadium against two bad teams in the Tigers and Twins, New York went 1-5 and was out-scored by a total of 41-18.  That's just three runs per game for a team that's supposed to have one of the most potent lineups in the game.  So a trip to Florida may be just what the doctor ordered as the Yanks head to Tampa now to play a Rays team that isn't in fact bad at all this season.  But it's also a team that the Yanks have done very well against in the past.  And tonight they'll send their All-Star and Cy Young contender, RHP Cam Schlittler to the hill for his 19th start of the season.  The 25-year-old has a league leading 2.08 ERA this season and he's 6-2 with a 1.03 ERA and 0.78 WHIP in 10 road starts.  Take the Yankees.  As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Winnipeg Blue Bombers + the points over Hamilton.  These two teams met in Week 2, and the Tiger-Cats came away with a 37-27 upset win in Winnipeg's home opener.  We'll take the Blue Bombers to avenge that defeat, as they're 11-0 ATS as an underdog when playing with revenge from a loss earlier in the season.  That bodes well for Winnipeg this evening.  As does the fact that Hamilton is a horrid 5-19 ATS when favored by 6 points or less off back-to-back wins.  Take Winnipeg + the points.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
 
7/5/2026 - WNBAWINNER
At 7 pm, our selection is on the Indiana Fever + the points over the Las Vegas Aces.  Each of these two teams will be without a star player on Sunday evening.  A'ja Wilson and Caitlin Clark will both be in street clothes for this match-up.  This is the first meeting since the Aces ousted the Fever in 5 games in last season's playoffs.  We'll fade Las Vegas, as defending champs have gone 81-116 ATS at home in the regular season when favored against a rested, revenge-minded foe.  Grab the points with the Fever.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
