I'm not scared off by Blake Snell's 0-2 record and 12.86 ERA through two starts with the Giants. His high ground ball rate is there so I'm not worried. I'm expecting positive regression starting with this game against a Diamondbacks team that is 2-5 on the road and whose batting numbers are well below par away from home. Snell has dominated the Diamondbacks with a 5-1 mark and 1.11 ERA in eight career starts. Arizona starter Jordan Montgomery is making his season debut. Montgomery isn't nearly where he should be. He pitched 7 2/3 innings for Triple-A Reno working his way into shape after signing with the Diamondbacks where his ERA was 10.57. The price is low enough to back Snell and the Giants. | ||

NBA | Apr 19, 2024 Kings vs Pelicans |
Pelicans +1½ -113 at Ace |
Won $100 |
Play Type: Top Premium | ||
I know why the Kings are a road favorite against the Pelicans in this loser-goes-home play-in game. New Orleans won't have injured Zion Williamson, the Pelicans are off two losses to the Lakers and the Kings looked great in eliminating the Warriors, 118-94, at home this past Tuesday. |
