INDIAN COWBOY
WNBA
5-Unit Play. Take #608. Take Seattle Storm -6 over Indiana Fever (Friday @ 10pm est).
The line is actually going down so if you just wait on this you can probably get -5 or -5.5 as per this selection. Does the reverse line movement concern me a bit? Yes, but I think its mainly due to Sue Bird not playing rather than a heavy amount of money coming in on Indiana. Seattle is one of the best teams in the league to consistently get revenge against teams who they had lost to in the previous season. And, they are even better at it at home. Yes, this team lost to Indiana earlier this year by a score of 65-72. Although Indiana is really turning the corner and coming on strong of late, note that Seattle is 11-2 on the year and they have done extremely well at home winning by margins of 21 against the Silver Stars, 22 against Los Angeles and 18 against the Dream. Look for Seattle to avenge their earlier loss to Indiana at home today in front of their fans on Friday night Wnba which typically is typically the game that is the most well attended. The Storm are 4-0 ATS in their last four home games and the Fever are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games when facing a team with a straight up winning record. Despite the revenge, this could be a close ballgame but I'll still ride Seattle here with the revenge at home despite being the public favorite.

MLB
4-Unit Play. Take #958. Take Under 9 Washington Nationals vs. Baltimore Orioles (Friday @ 07:05pm est)
J.D. Martin has pitched well despite being 0-3 as he does have a 3.55era. He has helped games go under in five of his last six starts, and he comes off a great start against the Whitesox that although the Nationals fell short 0-1, he gave up just one run in six innings. Jacob Arrieta has pitched decent as a whole given his three starts this year. He comes off a rough outing against the Padres on the road giving up five runs in three innings. But, in his two previous starts he had done well against the Giants on the road holding them to one run on seven innings and holding the Yankees to three runs on six innings in his home debut. I look for the young man from Texas Christian to do well today as he bounces back at home and I also look for JD to seek his first win on the road today in Baltimore. Although this series has had its fair share of offensive fireworks, I look for both of these teams to likely play to the under today. The Under is 5-1 in Martin's last six starts and the Under is 5-2 for the Orioles when the total is set at this range. The Under is 5-2 in the last seven meetings for these two teams as well.
