Tiny Nick’s Gambling Picks: 06/08 - Zone Coverage
Locks

WNBA (0.75 Unit) Atlanta Dream/Chicago Sky Under 159.5 (-110; Odds via Caesars): 4:00 PM CT on NBA TV

I wouldn’t recommend tuning in to this game, these offenses can make it a tough watch. It’s a little odd for Atlanta as they went from a high-octane offense last season to struggling this year, putting up the second-fewest points in the league. But because of their history, we still get fairly high totals like this one that create an advantage to the under. Neither team today is particularly good from a shooting standpoint, and they aren’t much of threats from deep, so points shouldn’t be piling up. They are relatively good defensive teams though, and a combined 11-6 to the under this season, so expect another here.

MLB (0.5 Unit) Baltimore Orioles -1.5 @ Tampa Bay Rays (+125; Odds via Fanduel): 3:10 PM CT on Bally Sports SUN

If it wasn’t for the Yankees running away with the AL East and baseball in general, what the Orioles are doing would be the story in that division. Baltimore is now 14-6 against their divisional opponents, with all but one of those wins coming by multiple runs. This should be another tonight with a drastic pitching mismatch, and the price is definitely right.

Kyle Bradish actually had a poor outing against the Rays in his last game, but that was at home where he struggles, and he now gets to start on the road where he’s been dominant with a 1.06 ERA. Meanwhile, Taj Bradley also got roughed up in his last start, by the Orioles, and they’ve crushed him over the years with a cumulative .333 average and 1.155 OPS. The Orioles also have a massive advantage at the plate, and should pull away with ease here.
