At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Seattle Storm + the points over Atlanta. Seattle comes into tonight's game off a 105-95 loss at home, as a 9-point underdog, to Indiana. And that was the Storm's 7th straight defeat, overall. Atlanta, meanwhile, enters on a 4-game win streak after a miraculous comeback win on Wednesday in Dallas. We'll grab the double-digits with the Storm, as they're 39-13-3 ATS as an underdog off a SU loss when playing a foe off a SU win, including 19-4-2 ATS when getting more than 6 points. Additionally, the underdog is 33-14 ATS in this series, including 9-0 ATS the last nine. Take Seattle. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Ottawa Redblacks + the points over Montreal. These two teams met last month at Molson Stadium, and the Alouettes escaped with a narrow, 37-35 victory, as a 9-point home favorite. Tonight, the Alouettes are on the road vs. the winless Redblacks and we'll happily grab the points with the home team. Indeed, CFL revenge-minded underdogs, priced from +3 to +14 points, have gone 210-157-13 ATS vs. unrested foes, including 40-25 ATS vs. .840 (or better) foes. Even better: Montreal's a miserable 18-36-3 ATS off back-to-back SU/ATS wins, including 3-14-2 ATS vs. foes off back-to-back losses. Take Ottawa. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 10 pm, our selection is on the Las Vegas Aces minus the points over New York. This is a re-match of the Commissioner's Cup championship game, won by the Liberty, 93-85. And the Liberty also won the first regular season meeting between these teams, 87-76, here in Las Vegas. We'll take the Aces, as they're 29-16-3 ATS when playing with double revenge. And the Liberty are a poor 28-51-2 ATS when going into double-revenge. Las Vegas also falls into a revenge system of mine which is 16-0 ATS since September 2022. Lay the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 8:30 pm, our selection is on the British Columbia Lions + the points over Winnipeg. The Blue Bombers were blown out last week, 52-30, by Calgary. And they also failed to cover the point spread in a narrow, 36-34 win vs. winless Ottawa two weeks ago as a 5-point road favorite. Tonight, they're favored by more than a touchdown, and we'll grab the points with the road underdog Lions. Indeed, home teams off a loss by more than 21 points are a nasty 17-36 ATS vs. foes off a SU loss, including 1-7 ATS as favorites of -7.5 (or more). And BC also falls into a 108-62 ATS system of mine. Grab the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
| 7/29/2026 - WNBA | WINNER |
At 8 pm, our selection is on the Dallas Wings minus the points over the Atlanta Dream. Dallas plays with revenge from a 17-point loss, 86-69, at Atlanta earlier this season. The good news for Dallas is that Atlanta is an awful 48-74-1 ATS on the road when playing a revenge-minded foe. And the Wings also fall into a 29-4 ATS revenge system of mine. Lay the points with Dallas. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Connecticut Sun + the points over the Washington Mystics. Connecticut was drubbed, 123-88, at Indiana in its final game before the All-Star Break. And that was the Sun's 2nd SU/ATS loss in a row. Meanwhile, the Mystics exited the first half of the season off back-to-back upset wins vs. Golden State (90-82) and Las Vegas (100-99). We'll take Connecticut to bounce back in the nation's capital, as it is 68-38 ATS off back-to-back point spread defeats if it wasn't favored by more than 5 points in its current game. Even better: it's 11-3 SU and 8-5-1 ATS its last 14 meetings vs. the Mystics. And, finally, underdogs off a SU loss are 22-9 ATS vs. foes off back-to-back upset wins. Grab the points with Connecticut. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 7:40 pm,
our selection is on the New York Yankees over the Chicago White Sox.
Max Fried was the presumed ace of the Yankees staff when the season
began in late March. After all, the 32-year-old southpaw was coming off
a 19-win campaign for New York -- one in which he finished fourth in
the AL Cy Young voting. Gerrit Cole wasn't ready to start the season
and nobody knew how good Cam Schlitter was going to be in his first full
season (turns out the answer is VERY good). And that's how things
started out with Fried going 4-1 with a 2.09 ERA through April. But
then things started to fall apart in May and it turned out Fried had a
bone bruise in his elbow. That was good news as there was no structural
damage and all he needed was time off. He's back in Cy Young form as
in his first start since returning, Fried was almost unhittable in five
innings against the Pirates on July 22. Tonight he will face the White
Sox and presumably have a longer leash. In two starts vs. the Sox,
Fried is 2-0 with a 2.77 ERA. Even better: Fried's teams are a perfect 11-0 in his 11 starts vs. American League Central foes. And they're 55-23 (+22.1 net games) as a road favorite. This will be his first career appearance
at Rate Field. Take New York. As always, good luck...Al McMordie |

At 1:35 pm,
our selection is on the Pittsburgh Pirates over the Chicago Cubs. It's
been an up-and-down season for the Pirates, and right now is a bit of a
down. Their ace, Paul Skenes, got rocked again (five runs in 5 1/3 IP) in
an 11-0 Cubs blowout on Saturday. That means Chicago goes for the
sweep today at PNC Park. Speaking of ups and downs, Braxton Ashcraft
has had that kind of season, as well. After a stellar first half which resulted in his first All-Star selection, Ashcraft came back after the
break and proceeded to have his shortest -- and worst -- start of the
season, lasting three innings in an ugly loss. But that was against the
Yankees in the Bronx, so we'll give the 26-year-old RHP a mulligan and
look for him to bounce back this afternoon in his 21st start of the
season. Ashcraft has done his best work of 2026 during the day, as in
nine afternoon starts he is 4-1 with a 3.23 ERA (vs. 5-3 and 4.35 in 11
starts under the lights). He's also dominated the Cubs this season,
going 1-0 with a 1.59 ERA with 14 strikeouts and two walks in two starts
covering 11 1/3 innings. Take Pittsburgh. As always, good luck...Al
McMordie. |

At 4:10 pm,
our selection is on the Miami Marlins over the San Diego Padres.
There's no doubting Eury Perez's talent. The 23-year-old Miami
righthander is one of the brightest young pitching stars in the Majors
but he hasn't been able to stay healthy so far in his three MLB seasons
prior to this year. But now in 2026, Perez has 17 starts which gives
him a chance to get to 30 if he can stay healthy the rest of the way.
Not only is Perez healthy, but he's also pitching at a very high level,
with a 3.53 ERA and 1.11 WHIP with 104 strikeouts in just under 92
innings. Because he isn't eligible for free agency until 2030, Perez is
probably safe from being moved by the Marlins at the upcoming trade
deadline. He'll get start number 18 this afternoon at home against the
Padres. Three of Perez's five victories have come here at LoanDepot
Park where he has an ERA that is more than a half run lower than it is
on the road this season (3.20 vs. 3.86). For his career, Perez has a
9-8 record and 2.69 ERA in 25 starts here (vs. 8-11 and 4.54 in 31 road
starts). Take the Marlins. As always, good luck...Al McMordie. |

At 7:10 pm,
our selection is on the Miami Marlins over the San Diego Padres. After
coming oh-so-close to dethroning the Dodgers a year ago, it was assumed
that the Padres would be right there again in 2026 battling for the NL
West Title. After all, San Diego made some big moves at the deadline
last July, trading away many of its top prospects for proven players
that could help it get over the hump. But it hasn't worked out this
season with the Padres under the .500 mark, and currently
50-53 coming into this series in Miami. Now, we are hearing that the
Padres will be big sellers at this season's deadline coming up in a
little more than a week. They will send former Rockies starter, German
Marquez, to the mound tonight for his 10th start of the season. The
31-year-old RHP was signed as a free agent by San Diego in February, but
he hasn't really made a difference for his new club with a 4-2 record
and 5.24 ERA and 1.55 WHIP in 44 2/3 innings. Miami has not yet named a starting pitcher, and may use a bullpen game tonight after starter Max Meyer went on the shelf following his outing last weekend. Miami has the 5th-best bullpen in the NL, with a 3.89 ERA, and is well-equipped for these types of games. The Marlins are 31-20 (+7.0 net games) at home this season, and have won
three of the last four meetings with the Padres coming in. San Diego, meanwhile, is 12-22 (minus 9.9 net games) on the road vs. the NL. Take Miami.
As always, good luck...Al McMoride. |
