4* Denver Nuggets -5.5 (10:30 edt) ESPN (#508)
Love the home-standing Nuggets here since they are awesome at home and the Spurs have not been all that great on the road. Denver will be very focused on getting off to a good start in this series and they know they can beat this Spurs team in the high altitude of Denver. Lay this short number with Denver to win big time with Jimmy. Thank you and good luck.

SEATTLE +170
HOUSTON @ SEATTLE | 4/13 | 9:10 PM EDT
Seattle is one of the biggest surprises in baseball thus far as it is off to a 13-3 record and has already returned almost $1,000 in profit to backers on the money line. Here's another chance for the Mariners to surprise, this time against Justin Verlander. My simulations have Seattle winning 45 percent of simulations with Felix Hernandez on the hill on Saturday, making it a strong value on the money line at +170.

ATLANTA -135
N.Y. METS @ ATLANTA | 4/13 | 7:20 PM EDT
The Mets took the first two in this series, but this is a good bounce-back spot for Atlanta with Sean Newcomb on the hill. He's given up just two earned run through two starts and my simulations have him going almost six innings with five strikeouts. Jason Vargas, meanwhile, got rocked in his last start. My simulations have the Braves winning straight-up almost 60 percent of the time.
13-5 IN LAST 18 MLB ML PICKS | +638

2-1 IN LAST 3 ATL ML PICKS | +115
WASHINGTON -123
PITTSBURGH @ WASHINGTON | 4/13 | 4:05 PM EDT
Max Scherzer has been scratched as a precaution after he took a line drive on the leg in his last start. Anibal Sanchez, however, is a very capable replacement in this matchup. He has a 3.45 ERA against the Pirates lifetime. My simulations are showing a quality start for Sanchez and big numbers for Anthony Rendon and Juan Soto as Washington gets the win in 65 percent of simulations.

GOLDEN ST. -12.5
L.A. CLIPPERS @ GOLDEN ST. | 4/13 | 8:00 PM EDT
The Clippers had a heck of a season just to get into the playoffs, and the Warriors are a dysfunctional mess. But we all knew that it didn't matter what happened in the regular season, Golden State would wipe the slate and be ready for the postseason. It's won six of seven, the lone loss a meaningless final-game defeat, including a 27-point beatdown of the Clippers last week. The Clippers have lost three of four and are on a 0-4 ATS slide.

Diamondbacks -105 over Padres
Kelly/Strahm
The Padres took the first two games of the series, but today Arizona finally gets to go against a pitcher that has not looked good to start the year. Matt Strahm has been off to a tough start with an ERA over 7.00 with more walks than strikeouts. Merrill Kelly has looked really good for the DBacks this year striking out 12 to just 2 walks. The Diamondbacks usually don’t have problems scoring runs so against a struggling pitcher should get on the board quick today. Take Arizona

TORONTO -8.5
ORLANDO @ TORONTO | 4/13 | 5:00 PM EDT
These teams met on April 1, and Toronto blew out the Magic by 12. The Raptors have been pointing to the playoffs all season, while Orlando is just happy to be back in the postseason. Take Toronto.

BROOKLYN @ PHILADELPHIA | 4/13 | 2:30 PM EDT
Even if Joel Embiid plays, I'm taking the Nets to cover. Brooklyn split the four games between the teams this season and covered in three of them.

DENVER -5.5
SAN ANTONIO @ DENVER | 4/13 | 10:30 PM EDT
The Nuggets were an NBA-best 34-7 at home this season, including 25-16 ATS. The Spurs weren’t far behind them at 32-9 at home, but they were an abysmal 16-25 on the road. Only the Pistons had a worse record of any team to make the playoffs. The Nuggets won both games between these two teams that were played in Denver this year, including a 28-point victory less than two weeks ago. Look for the Nuggets to start off the series with a win and cover along the way.
61-45-3 IN LAST 109 NBA ATS PICKS | +1109
7-2-1 IN LAST 10 SA ATS PICKS | +479
BROOKLYN +8
BROOKLYN @ PHILADELPHIA | 4/13 | 2:30 PM EDT
The key to this game is the status of Joel Embiid (knee), who might not be able to play. If he doesn’t take the floor, the Nets have a real shot at winning. Even if he does play, the Nets were a tough road team this year, posting a 25-16 ATS record. Based on this lofty line, I’ll take the Nets and the points.
61-45-3 IN LAST 109 NBA ATS PICKS | +1109
5-4 IN LAST 9 PHI ATS PICKS | +55
L.A. CLIPPERS +12.5
L.A. CLIPPERS @ GOLDEN ST. | 4/13 | 8:00 PM EDT
This series is expected to be heavily one-sided, hence the big line for Game 1. However, the Clippers were 22-17-2 ATS on the road while the Warriors were 16-24-1 ATS at home during the regular season. The Warriors should crank things up with the playoffs underway and grab a win to start the series, but I think the Clippers keep it close enough to where I like taking the points.
61-45-3 IN LAST 109 NBA ATS PICKS | +1109
9-4 IN LAST 13 GS ATS PICKS | +451
5-2 IN LAST 7 LAC ATS PICKS | +278
