Cubs vs. Reds
Total 8 -125 at 5DIMES in 3h

Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach MLB Saturday Free Pick UNDER the total in Cincinnati Reds vs Chicago Cubs @ 1:10 ET - Yesterday's game was a bad beat for those who had Cincinnati (including yours truly) as a big dog as they gave up a 3 run bomb with 2 outs in the top of the 9th to allow the Cubs to tie it. That also was a bad beat for under players as the game was one pitch away from ending 5-2 and staying under the total. Some redemption can be had today. It will be a raw chilly afternoon in Cincinnati with the wind blowing in from left field. Cody Reed gets the start for the Reds and he's full of confidence as he has yet to allow a hit in his 8 innings out of the bullpen this season. Suffice to say the southpaw has earned this start and the Cubs really haven't hit very well early this season and were very fortunate to get that win last night. As for the Reds lineup, they are unlikely to enjoy success against Jake Arrieta as the right-hander is 5-2 with a 0.92 WHIP in his 7 career starts versus Cincy. The Cubs right-hander also no-hit them right here in April of last year. Free Pick on UNDER the total in Cincinnati very early Saturday afternoon. Best of luck, Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach

Red Sox vs. Orioles
Orioles -113 at BETONLINE in 9h

10* Free MLB Pick (Orioles -113)

Baltimore is worth a look here as a short home favorite against the Red Sox. The Orioles should be a bigger favorite here, but the books are inflating the lines on Boston because of how big a public team they are. I'll take my chances with Baltimore here, as Red Sox starter Steven Wright has been awful to start the season, posting a 8.36 ERA in 3 starts. Baltimore is calling up Jayson Aquino, who they are hoping can make an impact this year. He nearly earned a spot on the opening day roster because of how strong he pitched in spring training. He's still throwing it well in the minors and will face a Boston lineup that can struggle against lefties. Give me the Orioles -113!

Warriors vs. Blazers
Warriors -6 -110 at GTBETS in 12h

Warriors -6

This play just missed out on our premium card. The Warriors travel to Portland on Saturday trying to take a 3-0 series lead and at this spread, there is a lot of value. The Warriors have been the dominant in the first two games of the series and I don't see that changing in this game. Even if Kevin Durant isn't able to go in this game it won't matter.

After the Trail Blazers back court they just don't have enough weapons to keep up with the Warriors. Some trends to note. Trail Blazers are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games playing on 2 days rest. Warriors are 13-3-1 ATS in their last 17 games overall. Warriors are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 road games.

This is just not enough points, this game is going to be another blowout.

Back the Warriors, Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Wizards vs. Hawks
Hawks -145 at Bovada

Chip's FREE NBA Winner

Washington at Atlanta 5:30 ET

Hawks over Wizards- The Wizards have a 2-0 lead in this Opening Playoff round as they scored late in both contests for the wins and ATS covers over Atlanta. But, the Hawks return home where they play significantly better winning 23 games. Aside from the fact that we were 3-0 in NBA action Friday the Hawks need to fly high tonight or they are done. Take Atlanta to win the game!

Dodgers vs. Diamondbacks
Diamondbacks +105 at 5DIMES in 10h

I'm backing the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday. Arizona is averaging 7.6 runs per game at home after its 13-5 win over the Dodgers last night and Kenta Maeda has allowed 11 runs and 15 hits in just 14 innings this season. Maeda pitched well against the Diamondbacks at Dodger Stadium last year, but he had a 4.91 ERA at Chase Field while giving up eight earned runs and 16 hits in 14 2/3 innings. Arizona is 7-1 at home and the Dodgers are 2-5 on the road. Robbie Ray pitched six strong innings at Los Angeles his last start allowing just one earned run and three hits with 10 strikeouts. Opposing hitters are batting .161 against Ray, and the Diamondbacks have won four of his last five home starts. Arizona has won 15 of its last 18 home games and the Dodgers have lost five of Maeda's last seven road starts dating to last season. I'm recommending a play on the Diamondbacks on Saturday. Thanks & GL! Scott Spreitzer.

Spurs vs. Grizzlies
Spurs -3½ -105 at BMAKER in 10h

Free Pick on Spurs -

I really like the value here with San Antonio as a short road favorite in Game 4 of this series. The Grizzlies were able to avoid falling down 3-0, but I'm not buying that win as a sign that Memphis is going to make this a series. San Antonio simply didn't match the fire and intensity of the Grizzlies in Game 3. I'm willing to bet that Popovich will make sure the Spurs come out with a lot more energy and focus in this one.

Spurs are 36-19 ATS in their last 55 games off an upset loss by 10 or more as a road favorite, 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 off a SU loss and 6-2 ATS in their last 8 in the 1st round of the playoffs. Memphis on the other hand is a mere 1-5 ATS in their last 6 off a cover. Take San Antonio!

Saturday’s NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs Betting Preview and Odds

St. Louis Blues at Minnesota Wild (-185, 5)

Blues lead series 3-1

ABOUT THE BLUES (49-30-5-2 SU, 37-49 ATS, 34-39 O/U): St. Louis needs leading scorer Vladimir Tarasenko to get things going after he managed two assists and no goals despite topping the team with 16 shots on net in the first four games. “There’s no question, we need our best players to play their best,” St. Louis coach Mike Yeo told reporters. “That’s not just in the playoffs, that’s anytime, it’s certainly magnified right now.” Tarasenko’s linemate Jaden Schwartz does have a pair of goals and an assist to share the team lead with Patrik Berglund and Alex Steen at three points each.

ABOUT THE WILD (50-27-7-2 SU, 46-40 ATS, 42-35 O/U): Power forward Charlie Coyle stepped up with goals in each of the last two games and center Martin Hanzal netted his first of the postseason in Wednesday’s victory. Zach Parise leads the team with three points while fellow wing Jason Zucker, who scored a career-best 22 times in the regular season, has yet to post a point despite pacing the Wild with 18 shots. Forward Erik Haula (upper-body) is expected to rejoin the lineup, perhaps in place of rookie Joel Eriksson Ek (five shots, zero points, three games), after missing Game 4.

LINE HISTORY: The Wild opened Game 5 as -167 home favorites and bettors think they'll extend the series another game, moving the number to as high as -185. It has since come back down to the current number of Wild -180. The total hit the board at the low 4.5, but it was quickly moved up to 5.

INJURY REPORT:

Blues - C Paul Stastny (Questionable Saturday, foot), C Robby Fabbri (Out for season, knee).

Wild - C Erik Haula (Questionable Saturday, undisclosed), G Darcy Kuemper (Questionable Saturday, illness), D Victor Bartley (Questionable, Saturday, tricep).

TRENDS:

* Blues are 4-1 in their last 5 Conference Quarterfinals games.
* Wild are 1-4 in their last 5 Conference Quarterfinals games.
* Under is 16-3-3 in Blues last 22 vs. Western Conference.
* Under is 5-0 in Wild last 5 vs. Western Conference.
* Under is 5-0 in the last 5 meetings.




Montreal Canadiens at New York Rangers (-105, 5)

Rangers lead 3-2

ABOUT THE CANADIENS (49–28-8-2 SU, 44-43 ATS, 30-41 O/U): Captain Max Pacioretty scored a team-high 35 goals during the season but has been blanked in the series, including a stop of a third-period breakaway in Game 5. "In order to get through this, we'll need more from a lot of guys," coach Claude Julien said. "It's time for certain players to elevate their game and have that confidence and desire to be better. There's no doubt when you lose games and you're behind 3-2 you can't be satisfied as a team." Montreal's power play also is stuck in neutral, failing on all 14 chances.

ABOUT THE RANGERS (51-29-3-4 SU, 41-46 ATS, 41-39 O/U): After a lackluster effort in Game 3 in which New York managed a series-low 21, coach Alain Vigneault traded sandpaper for skill by inserting rookie Pavel Buchnevich on a line with Chris Kreider and Zibanejad, which combined for the game-winner Thursday. The coach also shifted Michael Graebner to a line alongside Oscar Lindberg and Jesper Fast, who also tallied in Game 5. "There's speed, but you also have Jesper and Oscar who really compete hard for loose pucks and really battle hard," Vigneault noted. "It makes for a good mix."

LINE HISTORY: The Rangers opened Game 6 as slight -115 home favorites, but bettors think this first round series is going the distance and now it's the Habs who are the -115 chalk. The total opened at a low 4.5, but has moved to up to 5.

INJURY REPORT:

Canadiens - No injuries to report

Rangers - No injuries to report

TRENDS:


* Canadiens are 4-0 in their last 4 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
* Under is 15-3-3 in Canadiens last 21 road games.
* Under is 6-1-1 in Rangers last 8 vs. a team with a winning record.
* Canadiens are 5-1 in the last 6 meetings in New York.




Edmonton Oilers at San Jose Sharks (-140, 5)

Oilers lead series 3-2

ABOUT THE OILERS (50-27-5-5 SU, 46-41 ATS, 34-44 O/U): David Desharnais, who was acquired from Montreal on Feb. 28, saw only 13 minutes, 19 seconds of ice time in Game 5 - the third-lowest amount among Edmonton forwards in Game 5 but his highest in the series thus far. Kris Russell entered Game 5 with a league-leading 22 blocked shots this postseason but failed to record one in the victory. The 29-year-old defenseman, who topped the NHL during the regular season with 213 blocks, was overtaken for first place in the playoffs as San Jose's Justin Braun recorded a game-high 10 to increase his postseason total to 26.

ABOUT THE SHARKS (48-31-7-1 SU, 37-50 ATS, 24-39 O/U): Mikkel Boedker let coach Peter DeBoer know he previously had made a bad decision with his performance in Game 5. The 27-year-old Boedker, who was a healthy scratch for Games 3 and 4, scored midway through the first period to forge a 1-1 tie and set up defenseman David Schlemko's goal 8:38 into the second as San Jose took a 3-1 lead. After a franchise record-setting performance in the previous contest (4-for-8), the Sharks received only one power-play opportunity in Game 5 and failed to cash in, dropping to eighth among the 16 playoff teams (5-for-23, 21.7 percent).

LINE HISTORY: The Sharks opened as -137 favorites with their season on the line and have been bet up to the current number of -140. Oddsmakers set the total for Game 6 at 5.

INJURY REPORT:

Oilers - D Andrew Ference (Out for season, hip), RW Tyler Pitlick (Out for season, knee)

Sharks - No injuries to report

TRENDS:

* Oilers are 10-4 in their last 14 games following a win.
* Sharks are 5-12 in their last 17 vs. Western Conference.
* Over is 5-1-1 in Oilers last 7 road games.
* Oilers are 6-2 in the last 8 meetings.
* Over is 8-3-1 in the last 12 meetings in San Jose.
