Free Play Under- The Pittsburgh Pirates aren't nearly as good offensively against left handed pitching. Bennett has been really solid despite his inexperience. He does a good job of inducing soft contact and has very good control. Chandler has been up and down for the Pirates, but the Red Sox lineup has really been scuffling in recent games. Both of these teams have above average bullpens as well. Take the under. (9-2 Last 11 plays. MLB Total DOMINATION play is up for Friday night)NFL - Point Spread - Fri, Aug 14 @ 07:00 PM
Miami Dolphins vs Washington Commanders
Miami Dolphins -3.5 (+100) (BetMGM)
For my best free pick on the board here for Friday, I am looking at the Washington Commanders hosting the Miami Dolphins. We most likely will not see Jayden Daniels or Mariota in the preseason, so that leaves Sam Hartman and their 7th-round pick out of Rutgers. We will see Malik Willis play some...
For my best free pick on the board here for Friday, I am looking at the Washington Commanders hosting the Miami Dolphins. We most likely will not see Jayden Daniels or Mariota in the preseason, so that leaves Sam Hartman and their 7th-round pick out of Rutgers. We will see Malik Willis play some, then it’s on to Quinn Ewers and Cam Miller. This will be a rare game that the Dolphins can win, and look for this coach to go all out to get that win, whereas the Commanders, this game means zero, and keeping top talent healthy is the priority.

(#118) New York Jets | ATS | . I still liked the Jets in this opening preseason game even before HC Aaron Glenn announced that everyone is playing. Because of that, the line has jumped up drastically from what it opened at. That being said, I'm not too worried about that. New York dominated its opening preseason game last season against the Packers & I expect it to start strong again. Tampa Bay will not play its starters here in the preseason opener on Friday evening. I get that there's a lot of young talent in each team, making this an interesting game. But, Todd Bowles has a 5-7 ATS record over his past 12 preseason games & I don't see him having much success in this game. Take the Jets minus the points. Burns' Prediction: 30-14 Jets.MLB - Moneyline - Fri, Aug 14 @ 07:07 PM
New York Yankees (Gerrit Cole) vs Toronto Blue Jays (Shane Bieber)
Toronto Blue Jays +131 (BetOnline)
My selection is on Toronto over New York at 7:05 pm et on Friday. The Blue Jays have been a fairly easy team to figure out recently, most notably when coming off a loss as they've gone a perfect 8-0 in their last eight games following a defeat, as is the case here. We'll back them at a generous ...
My selection is on Toronto over New York at 7:05 pm et on Friday. The Blue Jays have been a fairly easy team to figure out recently, most notably when coming off a loss as they've gone a perfect 8-0 in their last eight games following a defeat, as is the case here. We'll back them at a generous price on Friday as they send Shane Bieber, who himself is looking to rebound off a rocky outing, to the mound against Gerrit Cole of the Yankees. For as well as Cole has pitched since returning from injury, he's only managed to go 6-5. The Yankees bats haven't always backed him up and off a 1-0 loss yesterday, I think we'll see a similar story play out against Bieber and the Blue Jays pitching staff on Friday. Every game is critical for Toronto right now as it desperately tries to stay in the A.L. Wild Card hunt. I think the price is right to get behind it on Friday at Rogers Centre. Take Toronto (8*).MLB - Moneyline - Fri, Aug 14 @ 08:10 PM

#970 HOUSTON with Lambert (-124) over Seattle with Kirby at 8:10 PM EST Back at Daikin Park for the first time since August 5 and coming in rested, the Astros are in position to build on their 2-1 win over the Giants. Houston enters this AL West matchup with a 2.0-game lead over Texas and a 5.0-game edge on Seattle, giving manager Joe Espada’s club a strong opportunity to widen its division advantage. Right-hander Peter Lambert gets the call for Houston. Over his last three starts against the Padres, Rangers, and Angels, Lambert allowed six earned runs and 15 hits across 15.2 innings while striking out 17 and walking six, good for a 3.45 ERA in that stretch. For the season, he has made 20 starts and surrendered just 39 earned runs over 113.2 innings, producing an 8-6 record with an excellent 3.09 ERA. Seattle counters with right-hander George Kirby. In his last three starts against the Devil Rays, Twins, and Rangers, Kirby gave up eight earned runs and 16 hits in 16.0 innings, striking out eight and walking three for a 4.50 ERA. His road numbers are also a concern, as he has allowed 24 earned runs and 66 hits over 52.2 innings away from home, resulting in a 3-5 record and 4.10 ERA. The supporting trends also favor Houston. The Astros have won 122 of their last 223 home games, 94 of their last 169 as home favorites, and 73 of their last 141 division contests. Meanwhile, Seattle has lost 125 of its last 227 road games and 70 of its last 125 as an underdog. Seattle has controlled this series recently, winning nine of the last 10 meetings, but that run is set up to end here. Take Houston with Lambert. Thanks, and best of luck, Tom.CFL - Point Spread - Fri, Aug 14 @ 08:30 PM

The Blue Bombers are dissatisfied with their recent home performances and plan to vent that frustration against the struggling Redblacks. Ottawa sits at 0-8 this season, with its last two defeats each coming by more than 20 points. On the road, the Redblacks surrender an average of 39.7 points and a staggering 521.3 yards per game. Having been idle since July 30, the Bombers are well-rested and eager. Off consecutive losses of their own, they will show the visitors little mercy. In other words, this should get ugly. Play Winnipeg.MLB - Moneyline - Fri, Aug 14 @ 09:38 PM

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. MLS Soccer Take #209810 Atlanta -110 over New York Red Bulls (7:30 p.m. EST, Saturday August 15) We think this is a great spot for Atlanta. They have not been playing their best lately but this will be a homecoming for them as they have not played a home match since May 9, before the World Cup. Even though they lost last time out, we liked what we saw from them at Philly. They were up by two goals most of the match vs the Union but they were a man down and Philadelphia scored two goals in extra time to steal three points. As we stated, Atlanta has not played at home in a long time and we think this return will give them an extra burst of energy and it’s not like the Red Bulls are a great side. They are quite far above Atlanta in the standings but have a -10 goal differential compared to -14 for Atlanta, who have faced a real tough schedule on this road trip. It’s telling that Atlanta is a decent favorite here with their recent performances, and we think this is an amazing spot for them to pick up three points and some momentum for the second half of the season in front of the home fans.Get Free Picks, Big Game alerts, and Winning Info from our champion handicappers.
