Some notes :

-Golden State goes for win #69 versus Boston , and even a respectable Boston team is still catching 12 points on the road versus Golden State.

– My man Stephen Campbell points out a smart wager trend wise is The Cavs. He writes : ” The Cleveland Cavaliers and Atlanta Hawks could very likely meet in the postseason, but before they get there they’ll face off at Philips Arena tonight. The Cavs have held a major edge in this series, going 5-0 SU and 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings between the Eastern Conference foes. ”

Guest Picks with Jared Carrabis

Major League Baseball Over/Under Win Totals 

I will be the first to admit, there’s few things better than stepping off the beach at 3:30 on a Summer Sunday and walking right up to the bar for a 4pm first pitch accompanied by a nice dinner before packing up the car and heading back home for the weekend. Same goes for a week night out by the pool with the game on the radio. As Terence Mann once said, ” This field, this game: it’s a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again.”

Baseball in it’s purest form is a beautiful beautiful thing. And I will watch, and analyze just like everyone out there. However when it comes to capping, I cannot claim to be an expert.

Jared has given predictions on a few teams Over/Under win totals. For those of you not familiar, here’s the list of Total Wins for each MLB team per OddsShark.com.
