Sports Handicapper Jesse Schule's Picks & Predictions

This is a late breaking play on Ottawa.

The Hamilton Tigercats will be playing their fourth game in 16 days, on a short week. They have their third string QB playing again tonight. He did almost nothing in the win over Calgary last week, a victory that came almost exclusively due to their defense. With such a quick turnaround that defense may not be up to the task here against Ottawa coming off a bye. No doubt Ottawa is the weaker team here, but they are set up for success. Dominic Davis has stepped in to do a decent job at QB, throwing for 624 yards and three TDs on 53-of-84 passing. This gives the Redblacks a significant advantage at the most important position. This one has "upset" written all over it.

This is a 5* play on Over.

The Indians host the Royals in Game 4 of a home series Wednesday, and we expect a high score here.

Logan Allen will toe the slab for the Tribe, and it's fair to say he's struggled of late. He's given up nine runs on 15 hits in his last nine innings of work.

The Royals hand the ball to Carlos Hernandez who was lit up in his last start. He got torched for seven runs on nine hits in four innings in a home loss to Oakland.

The over is 13-6 in the Indians last 19 home games with the total set at 7.0-8.5.

This is a free play on Colorado.

The Rockies have won seven of their last 10 overall, and they have won more games at home than the Dodgers have won on the road.

German Marquez will toe the rubber for the Rockies, and he's been really solid at Coors Field. He's 8-2 with a 3.16 ERA in 16 home starts.

The Dodgers hand the ball to Walker Buehler, who has lost two of his last three starts. He allowed three runs on six hits and two walks in six innings in a loss to the Reds his last time out.

The Rockies are 4-1 in their last five games versus a right-handed starter.

This is a 5* play on Detroit.

The Tigers have won three straight, and they are big underdog in Game 3 of this home series versus the White Sox. This is despite the fact that they have won more games at Comerica Park that the Sox have won on the road.

Casey Mize will toe the slab for the Tigers, and he's coming off back to back losses. He only allowed four runs in those games, and he boasts a 3.32 ERA over his last five starts.

The Sox hand the ball to Reynaldo Lopez, who has allowed 10 runs on 13 hits over nine innings in his last two starts.

The Tigers have won five straight as a home underdog.
