MLB | Astros vs Guardians
Play on: Astros +131 at circa

Cleveland rookie lefty Parker Messick has been brilliant so far this season going 3-0 with a 1.05 ERA and 0.75 ratio in 25.2 innings. He took a no-hitter into the ninth inning in his last start this past Thursday in a 4-2 victory against the Orioles.

Messick also threw a career high 112 pitches in that game. He had never reached  100 pitches before. Now he is pitching on only four days rest. The Astros are averaging 5.7 runs per game during their last four games. They rank fourth in slugging percentage and OPS versus lefties. Yordan Alvarez leads the majors in homers and is tied for first in RBIs.

Houston is pitching Ryan Weiss, who had a 2.87 ERA with 207 strikeouts in 178.2 innings pitching last season in the KBO League, the top-level professional baseball league in South Korea.

The Guardians rank 21st in runs and batting average.  So this sets up as a promising spot for the underdog Astros. It also sets up well for an alternative wager of taking the Astros to score more than 3.5 runs thus taking Weiss and a bad Houston bullpen out of the equation.  I am 5-2 on my premium/free baseball plays this season. My Tuesday card is headed by my NBA Game of the Week. I am 31-16 on my last 47 NBA premium/free plays after cashing with the underdogs Timberwolves last night as Minnesota beat Denver straight-up.

MLB | Brewers vs Tigers
Play on: Brewers +100 at betonline

Brewers +100

Locking this in early. The Brewers are worth a free move. The Tigers struggled on Monday in Boston and now will turn to Montero on Tuesday. He allowed 4 runs to Kansas City in his last start and he has just always been inconsistent with each start. Kyle Harrison counters and he’s at least allowed 2 runs or less in all 3 outings so far. Milwaukee is the move at this price. Ray’s daily FREE plays are meant to be cheap bankroll plays. Money management is everything in this game, and these freebies are designed to keep you moving in the right direction. Tonight’s FREE selection is a strong lean on the BREWERS +$. The number makes sense, the spot is right, and it’s a play worth taking. You know what to do. Good luck — Razor Ray.

MLB | Cardinals vs Marlins
Play on: Cardinals +103 at Buckeye

Folks, nobody’s expecting the St. Louis Cardinals to roll into loanDepot park and light the place on fire on a random Tuesday night, but at plus-money around +100 to +105 against the Miami Marlins, they’re suddenly looking like the kind of underdog bet that makes you feel smart instead of sorry.

The Cardinals are sitting at 13-9 overall and have already shown they can hold their own on the road (6-4 away from Busch Stadium so far). Their lineup has been quietly putting up extra-base hits all season, with Jordan Walker swinging a hot bat at .306 with eight homers already. The guy looks like he’s having fun out there, which is more than you can say for a lot of teams grinding through April. Add in Alec Burleson and the rest of the crew chipping in, and you’ve got an offense that can punish pitchers who leave the ball anywhere near the middle of the plate , even in a park that tends to swallow up some power.

On the hill, Dustin May (2-2, 6.98 ERA) is the guy getting the ball. Yeah, that ERA looks ugly at first glance, but zoom in a bit and you’ll see he’s cleaned things up lately , just two earned runs in his last two starts while actually sticking around for more innings. That’s the kind of quiet progress that can sneak up on you. Meanwhile, the Marlins are sending out Chris Paddack (0-3, 5.59 ERA), who’s already served up four homers in limited work. Miami’s offense hasn’t exactly been setting the world on fire either , only 16 team homers through 23 games and they’re hovering around middle-of-the-pack in scoring. Basically, it’s two teams that can both look a little leaky on the mound, but St. Louis seems better equipped to make the other guy pay.

Let’s not forget the history books are heavily in the Cardinals’ favor here. They lead the all-time series 138-92 against Miami, and even in recent years they’ve had a knack for winning the tight ones when they visit. The Marlins are 11-12 overall and a decent 8-5 at home, but they’ve looked shaky at times against NL Central-style lineups and still struggle to score consistently in their own ballpark.

At the end of the day, the Cardinals have won about 61% of their underdog games so far this young season. So when you can get them at even money or better on the road against a Marlins team that’s been inconsistent, it starts to feel like one of those sneaky-good spots where the “underdog” label is doing most of the heavy lifting.

Here’s hoping Dustin May keeps trending in the right direction, Walker keeps mashing, and the Cardinals walk out of Miami with a win that pays a little extra. Because let’s be honest , nothing feels better than cashing a plus-money ticket when the “msm sports talking heads ” weren’t really paying attention.

Testing current 16-1 94% overall NBA run and a longer term 46-20 69% conversion rate that has made my dime players more than $27000.00 in bankroll expanding profits.

NBA | 76ers vs Celtics
Play on: 76ers +14 -110 at circa

Ricky's 1* play on PHI.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- The 76ers has won 5 of the last 9 meetings.

- The 76ers are 3-1 in their last 4 games.

- The 76ers has won 3 of their last 4 ATS games.

Verdict: The value is on the road Underdog.

NBA | 76ers vs Celtics
Play on: 76ers +14½ -110 at Ace

I am looking at the Philadelphia 76ers at the Boston Celtics here on Tuesday night NBA action here. Sixers got taken to the woodshed on Sunday in an epic blowout and again that should drive bettors to Boston in a big way. Now it’s clear after game 1 Sixers have zero shot in this series without Embiid but they should be able to keep it to single digits here on Tuesday night. Maxey and VJ Edgecomb to of the most talented young players in the league. Look for a big team effort from Philadelphia on Tuesday. 

Play on the Philadelphia 76ers plus the points rotation #511

NBA | 76ers vs Celtics
Play on: 76ers +14½ -110 at circa

AAA Sports' Selection: Philadelphia 76ers (ATS).

Philadelphia lost Game One after getting off to a bad start. We look for it to keep this game a lot closer.

The 76ers have actually beaten Boston twice this season -- includes once at Boston as well.

They cover against the spread in 67% of their road games against opponents within the Atlantic Division.

Boston has looked really sharp lately, but this seems to be a lot of points considering how it likes to play in defensive games.

The Celtics are just 8-9 versus the spread against teams within the Atlantic as well.

We're on Philadelphia to cover this big line.

NHL | Bruins vs Sabres
Play on: Bruins +146 at circa

(#53) Boston Bruins | ML | . 

Boston blew the first game of this series with less than 10 minutes to go. The Bruins are not going to be happy about that end result and although some teams might fold in this circumstance, I believe that the loss is going to fuel them even more. Don't get me wrong, the Sabres definitely outplayed the Bruins for the majority of the game, they just couldn't score. That was largely because Swayman was playing so well. Having said that, I expect another strong game from the Boston net-minder. This game should be much more even and I look for the Bruins to get on the board in the series and even it up.

Burns' Prediction: 3-2 Bruins.

MLB | Orioles vs Royals
Play on: Royals -123 at betus

Free Play: 916. Royals -1.28 (4:40 pt / 7:40 et)

Royals should find success on Tuesday against the Orioles due to strong matchups both on the mound and in terms of run scoring. KC's starter has struggled far less with hard contact compared to Baltimore's expected starter, and Royals hitters have been among the better early-game scoring offenses in baseball. Their speed game and aggression also meshes well against an Orioles defense that has faltered at times this year, particularly away from home. Couple that with a Royals bullpen that has vastly outpaced Baltimore's in late inning reliability, and Kansas City presents the cleaner, less volatile profile to win the matchup.

Play on: UNDER 8½ -115

Phillies vs Cubs MLB Free Pick 

The Angle(s): The reeling Philadelphia Phiilies have scored a grand-total of only 10 runs over a six-game losing streak and Cubs lefty Shota Imanaga (1-1, 2.45 ERA) has had a dominant start to the year. The same can not be said about Phillies left-hander Jesus Luzardo (7.94 ERA), but I think it's only a matter of time before he's back pitching to his usual standards which has kept him in the majors since 2019.  

The Bet: UNDER (3%).

NHL | Utah Mammoth vs Golden Knights
Play on: Utah Mammoth +1½ -185 at betus

My selection is on Utah +1.5 goals over Vegas at 9:30 pm et on Tuesday.

The Golden Knights took the opener of this series by a 4-2 score on Sunday. I'm looking for the Mammoth to answer back on Tuesday and will grab the insurance goal as the situation warrants such a play. Note that Vegas has now won four straight games including three in a row by two goals or more. That latter three-game streak matches their longest of the season. Meanwhile, it owns just one winning streak lasting longer than four games all season. The Mammoth have dropped consecutive games and that's notable as well as they've lost more than two in a row just once going back to December 12th. It's easy to forget that Utah just won 4-0 here at T-Mobile Arena on March 19th. The Mammoth have proven to be a tough out on the road this season where they've outscored opponents by an average margin of 0.3 goals. Take Utah +1.5 goals (8*).
