Nover’s View: Tigers-Mariners Free Friday Play

On July 14, 2023, in Free Picks, MLB, by Stephen

Tigers plus 1 1/2 runs minus $1.35 (run line) at Mariners  Southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez can keep this one close for the Tigers. Rodriguez was having a strong year until suffering a finger injury, which caused him to miss June. He came back on July 5 and struggled against the A’s.  Look for Rodriguez to fare […]

Nover’s View: Rockies-Giants Free Sunday Play

On July 9, 2023, in Free Picks, MLB, by Stephen

Giants minus 1 1/2 runs minus $1.20 (run line) hosting Rockies The Giants dominate the Rockies winning 12 of the last 13 times against them.  Look for that trend to continue with Kyle Freeland facing Logan Webb.  Freeland actually pitches far worse on the road than at Coors Field. He is 1-7 with a 5.89 […]

Nover’s View: Trying to make sense of Tigers’ No-hitter

On July 9, 2023, in MLB, by Stephen

The Detroit Tigers were a charter member of the American League in 1901. Up until Saturday, they had thrown just eight no-hitters in their 122 years.

Nover’s View: Red Sox-Blue Jays Free Friday Play

On June 30, 2023, in Free Picks, MLB, by Stephen

Jose Berrios was once good. Then he got bad. Now he’s good again especially when he’s pitching in Toronto where he’s 4-1 with a 2.48 ERA this season. The Blue Jays have won 87.5 percent of Berrios’ home starts since 2021 going 21-3.  I like Berrios and Toronto to beat the reeling Red Sox.  Boston […]

Nover’s View: Padres-Pirates Free Wednesday Play

On June 28, 2023, in Free Picks, MLB, by Stephen

Padres at Pirates Under 8 This total is too high in a pitching matchup of Blake Snell versus Mitch Keller. Snell has shown his former Cy Young Award winning ability during his last five starts with a 0.29 ERA. The Pirates broke through for nine runs against the Padres and their overmatched emergency fill-in starter, […]

Nover’s View: Royals-Rays Free Saturday Play

On June 24, 2023, in Free Picks, MLB, by Stephen

Rays minus 1 1/2 runs minus $1.25 (run line) hosting Royals I’m not going to lay nearly $3.00 to back the Rays at home against the Royals. But I want Tampa Bay involvement with Jordan Lyles on the hill for Kansas City.  So it’s laying 1 1/2 runs on the run line.  Tampa Bay has […]
