RIVER CITY SHARPS -MLB
Chicago White Sox (-107) Gonna take another shot again tonight vs. King Felix, who simply doesn’t look like the same pitcher we are used to. We can point to him getting shelled last out, but he really hasn’t been effective since the AS break, and now faces Sale, who is rolling for the Southsiders. He leads the AL in K’s and think the visitor is the right choice here tonight
Oakland A’s (-119) Smyly has really struggled with the A’s over his career, posting an 0-2, 9.95 mark. Meanwhile, Bassitt’s record doesn’t describe how well he’s pitched for the A’s and we like his chances tonight against this depleted Rays squad
Houston Astros (-121) Fiers has really been solid since his move to Houston, especially in his last two outings, and we think the Astros bats wake up tonight against Anderson and the Dodgers
Marlins – TT Over 4 (-115) Taking a flyer here against the rookie pitcher for the Phils and a Miami offense that has been cranking on all cylinders lately. Could also make a strong case for the game total going over the 8, but we are sticking with the Miami TT.

Chiefs -3 over Seahawks
These are two teams that have great home field advantage. The preseason really doesn’t matter, but Arrowhead is always a loud and tough place to play. I am not downgrading the Seahawks just yet, but this team has little depth and are already playing musical chairs on the offensive line. Last week they got their 2nd string QB hurt and outside of the first team that might play a quarter there is not much of a threat. The Chiefs might have one of the best backups in the league in Chase Daniel who could be showcasing his talent for a trade which would mean quality players added to this Chiefs roster. The Seahawks are really not a dangerous team with their legion of boom sitting on the sidelines and light work from their top offensive players. Unless the Seahawks open up 21-0 or something of that nature I think the Chiefs will dominate quarters 2,3 and 4. Take Kansas City.

Giants -130 over Pirates
Bumgarner/Locke
Madison Bumgarner is pitching like he did in the post season when the Giants won the World Series. There is no better pitcher in baseball when he is on fire and to make matters worse the guy can beat you when he is batting at the plate. Take the Giants.
