After having to move to new offices in Phoenix area, the line moves are back and have six different ones today. Take a minute to review all the betting trends and our free picks (122-98-4 run) to see what we are thinking today. See you back here tomorrow.
NBA – (725) SAN ANTONIO at (726) L.A. CLIPPERS 10:35 ET TNT (side and total)
A massive matchup in the Western Conference, with playoff bids and positioning hanging in the balance. The Clippers essentially have to finish 5-0 to make the postseason, but bettors are not in favor of them even winning this contest, being pushed from a Pick to +1.5 point home underdogs against San Antonio. At the same time, the total has sunk from 210 to 207.5. The Spurs are on a 8-2 SU and ATS push, yet are unsightly 14-24 SU on the road this season. I'm going to lean with San Antonio's winning experience and believe the NBA's top scoring defense makes this a lower scoring affair.
Betting Trend - 83% backing San Antonio and 73% on Under
Doug's VPID Take - Leans San Antonio and Under
MLB – (957) ST. LOUIS at (958) MILWAUKEE 6:40 ET FSMW, FSWI
Both these teams have scored and allowed runs in the first week of the season and are each 3-1 OVER. The betting public is forecasting more of the same and lifted the total from 9 to 9.5. Initially I was thinking lower score with Milwaukee's Chase Anderson having a 2.27 ERA versus St. Louis in nine starts. However, after surmising the complete situation and finding the Cardinals are 28-14 OVER off two victories, I'll side with the OVER.
