MLB Comp Pick for Thursday June 26, 2014: 7:05 PM EST
(965) CHICAGO WHITE SOX VS (966) TORONTO BLUE JAYS
Take: over the total.
Reason: Your free pick for Thursday, June 26th, 2014, comes in baseball as Chicago and the Blue Jays meet in Toronto. Toronto is a great hitter's park and the White Sox are in town with an improved offense, 7th in baseball in runs scored, 8th in slugging. The pitching isn't improved, though, which is why they are in last place. Scott Carroll goes here, with a 2-3 record and a 4.30 ERA, with opponents hitting .309 off him. He is 0-2 on the road with a 4.70 ERA. The over is 17-6-1 in the White Sox last 24 road games vs. a team with a winning record, plus 4-1 over when Carroll starts. Toronto has a powerhouse attack, 3rd in baseball in runs scored and slugging, 4th in on base percentage. The over is 6-1 in the Blue Jays last 7 games vs. a right-handed starter. Toronto lefty J.A. Happ (4.87 ERA) is back to struggling, with opponents hitting .291 off him. Play the White Sox/Blue Jays Over the total!

Toronto Argonauts vs Winnipeg Blue Bombers Preview
By Tom Wilkinson
Toronto Argonauts vs Winnipeg Blue Bombers
CFL Odds: The Winnipeg Blue Bombers host the Toronto Argonauts on Thursday in the opening game of the 2014 CFL season. The Toronto Argonauts won the East Division last season while the Winnipeg Blue Bombers finished last so it is no surprise to see the road team favored in this opener. The Toronto Argonauts have also owned this series of late, winning 7 of the last 10. They won all three meetings a year ago and covered two of the three games.
Here is a look at Thursday’s season opener and CFL picks.
Huge Edge at Quarterback for Toronto Argonauts
The Toronto Argonauts have one of the top quarterbacks in the CFL in Ricky Ray while the Winnipeg Blue Bombers have problems. The team is counting on Drew Willy as their starter and Brian Brohm as the backup. Willy has four career CFL starts while Brohm has none.
Winnipeg Blue Bombers Defensive Injuries
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers defense has major problems heading into the opener on Thursday. Three starters, linebacker Korey Banks, cornerback Donovan Alexander and defensive back Alex Suber are all questionable. The Winnipeg Blue Bombers defense is not very good to begin with and with three starters banged up they figure to have a long night on Thursday against Ricky Ray and the Argos offense.
Game Trends
The Argonauts are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games in June. The Argonauts are 15-5-1 ATS in their last 21 road games. The Argonauts are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games in Week 1. The Blue Bombers are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games in June. The Blue Bombers are 0-3-1 ATS in their last 4 home games. The Argonauts are 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 meetings in Winnipeg. The Argonauts are 3-1-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings.
The Under is 14-3 in the Argonauts last 17 games in June. The Under is 5-2 in the Blue Bombers last 7 games in June. The Under is 10-4 in the last 14 meetings in Winnipeg.
CFL Picks
I think this should be a good road win to start the season for the Toronto Argonauts so I will lay the points.

CFL Betting Notes - Week 1
By David Schwab
A brand new year of CFL action is ready to kick things off this Thursday night in Winnipeg as the 2014 regular season gets underway. The big news heading into a new season, in addition to a new labor contract between the owners and the CFL Players Association, is the expansion to nine teams with the addition of the Ottawa RedBlacks, who will be a part of the East Division.
To balance things out geographically, the Blue Bombers will now be playing out of the West Division along with the 2013 Grey Cup Champion Saskatchewan Roughriders, who will close-out the first week of action this Sunday at home against Hamilton in a rematch of last year’s championship game.
Thursday, June 26
Toronto Argonauts vs. Winnipeg Blue Bombers
Line: Toronto -4½
Total: 53½
Toronto won the East Division last season with a straight-up record of 11-7, but it was stunned by Hamilton 36-24 in the East Division Finals as a five-point home favorite. The Argonauts finished the regular season with a 9-8-1 record against the spread overall and they were a profitable 6-2-1 ATS on the road. The total went OVER in 10 of the 18 games.
The Blue Bombers followed-up a disappointing 6-12 campaign in 2012 with a dismal 3-15 SU mark that was the worst in the league last year. They were slightly better ATS at 5-12-1, but closed things out by covering in just one of their last eight games. The total went an even 9-9 overall with six of the games going OVER at home.
The Argonauts are 3-0-1 ATS in their last four trips to Winnipeg and they are 3-1-1 ATS in the last five meetings overall. The total has stayed UNDER in 10 of the last 14 meetings at Investors Group Field. The road team has won five of the last seven meetings SU and the total has gone OVER in three of the last four games between these two.
Saturday, June 28
Montreal Alouettes vs. Calgary Stampeders
Line: Calgary -7
Total: 54½
Montreal remains one of the premier franchises in the CFL, but it comes into this season fresh off an 8-10 SU (11-7 ATS) losing season in 2013. The Alouettes will also start the year without long-time veteran quarterback Anthony Calvillo, who finally decided to retire after coming into the league in 1994. Despite the losing record, Montreal was a solid bet on the road last season with a 7-2 mark ATS.
The Stampeders won the West Division last season with the CFL’s best overall record at 14-4 SU, but their run in the playoffs was cut short with a 35-13 loss to Saskatchewan as five-point favorites at home in the West Final. They went 11-6-1 ATS in 2013 with a 5-3-1 ATS record at home. The total went OVER in six of their nine games at home.
In the two meetings last season, Calgary won both ends of an early season home-and-home series both SU and ATS. The Stampeders outscored Montreal by a combined 19 points and the total went OVER the 49½-point closing line in a 38-27 victory as seven-point home favorites at McMahon Stadium. It stayed UNDER the 53½-point line in their 22-14 road victory against the Alouettes as two-point underdogs.
Edmonton Eskimos vs. British Columbia Lions
Line: BC -7½
Total: 52
Edmonton went in the wrong direction in 2013 with just four SU victories after posting a 7-11 SU record in 2012 that was actually good enough to make the playoffs. The Eskimos went 8-10 ATS last season and while they were just 2-7 ATS at home, they did manage to cover in six of their nine games on the road. The total went OVER in 12 of the 18 games.
The Lions won 13 games SU in 2012, but that number dropped to 11 in 2013. They faced the Roughriders in the opening round of the playoffs and came out on the wrong end of a 29-25 loss as 4½-point road underdogs. BC was an even 9-9 ATS in the regular season. The total also went 9-9, but it did stay UNDER in six of nine games at home.
BC won’t have the services of quarterback Travis Lulay this weekend, who is still nursing a shoulder injury. Veteran Kevin Glenn is expected to get the starting nod for the Lions while Lulay recovers.
These West Division foes met three times last season with BC sweeping the series both SU and ATS. The total went OVER in two of the three games. The average margin of victory in the three games was 12.7 points with the Lions averaging 30.3 points per game.
Sunday, June 29
Hamilton Tiger-Cats vs. Saskatchewan Roughriders
Line: Saskatchewan -5½
Total: 55
Hamilton’s run all the way to the 2013 Grey Cup Championship was a bit of a shock after going just 10-8 SU in the regular season. It first knocked-off Montreal 19-16 as a 3½-point home favorite before upsetting Toronto in the division final. The Tiger-Cats were an even 9-9 ATS and the total stayed UNDER in 12 of the 18 games.
The Roughriders will begin the defense of their Grey Cup title fresh off an 11-7 SU record in 2013 that included eight SU victories in their first nine games. They regained their form at just the right time with a 6-2 SU run in their final eight games. The total went OVER in three of their final four contests including the 52-point closing line in their 45-23 victory in the Grey Cup as seven-point favorites.
Along with the victory in the title game both SU and ATS, Saskatchewan won a home-and-home series against Hamilton both ways in the 2013 regular season with the total staying UNDER in both games. It is now 4-1 both SU and ATS in the last five games between the two.
