UFC 330: IAN MACHADO GARRY +300

Handicapper: Alex Smart

Alex Smart takes a major swing with IAN MACHADO GARRY +300 against Islam Makhachev. Garry brings significant height and reach advantages along with substantially greater striking volume.

Makhachev’s wrestling and top control remain the obvious danger, but Smart believes Garry’s length, distance striking and underdog price create enough potential value to justify the play.

MLB: RANGERS -127

Handicapper: Sean Murphy

Sean Murphy backs TEXAS -127 against the Athletics. The Rangers enter looking to stop a four-game skid, and Murphy expects starter MacKenzie Gore to fill the stopper role.

MLB: WHITE SOX +125

Handicapper: Mike Lundin

Mike Lundin goes against the favorite with CHICAGO WHITE SOX +125 at Detroit. Anthony Kay has helped Chicago go 4-1 over his last five starts while posting a 3.04 ERA during that stretch.

The key matchup is Detroit against left-handed pitching. The Tigers enter just 15-22 against left-handed starters, producing a negative ROI in those games. Lundin believes that makes Chicago worth backing at the plus-money price.

MLB: DODGERS +1.5

Handicapper: Marc David

Marc David takes LOS ANGELES DODGERS +1.5 against Milwaukee. David enters on a 7-2 run with his last nine free picks and believes the market is placing too much emphasis on Brewers starter Jacob Misiorowski.

Los Angeles owns a strong home record, while Justin Wrobleski enters 11-4 with a 3.44 ERA. Getting the Dodgers at home plus 1.5 runs is David’s preferred approach.

NFL PRESEASON: JAGUARS +2.5

Handicapper: Joe Duffy

Joe Duffy backs JACKSONVILLE +2.5 against New Orleans. Jacksonville qualifies for an 84-43 ATS road-underdog system, although both teams are expected to rely heavily on reserves.

Duffy notes that Jacksonville’s starters will sit and that the personnel advantage isn’t pronounced enough to elevate the game to premium status. The system provides the primary reason to take the points with the Jaguars.
