Atlanta +120 over Pittsburgh
Nice FREE WINNER with San Antonio yesterday and tonight we turn our attention to major league baseball and back the so far punch-less Atlanta Braves. They have struggled to score runs through their first four games but get just what the doctor ordered in Pittsburgh starter Chad Kuhl. He really struggled at PNC Park in 2016 posting a 7.03 ERA and allowing opponents to hit .330 off him. RA Dickey is an experienced pro and pitches the Braves to victory today over the shaky Kuhl.

Boston vs. Charlotte
Play: Charlotte +1.5
A two game losing streak by the Hornets has all but eliminated their chances of getting into the playoffs. Their opponent Saturday is also on a costly two-game losing streak in the Boston Celtics. Just a few days ago the Celtics were looked at as the top seed in the East, and now could be in jeopardy of slipping to the fourth seed. While the Hornets haven't shown the defense of last year's playoff team they're still one of the more dangerous offensive. Grab the Hornets to continue the Celtics end of season slide.

Cleveland at Arizona
Play: Arizona +100
The line on this game is hilarious. It's almost as if the Diamondbacks weren't 4-1 with their offense clicking full-throttle and not playing at home behind their ace. I understand the Indians are very good -- they made it to the World Series last season. But their starter Saturday, Trevor Bauer, lost two of the four World Series games. Somehow, he's a favorite against ace Zack Greinke even though he's two levels below in class. I hope the oddsmakers’ ratings on Arizona stay crazy low all season. I’m on the Diamondbacks.

Detroit Red -145
Huge difference in motivation here since Montreal is locked into the division title so they will be more interested in not getting injured and getting ready for the playoffs. Detroit it out of the playoffs but this is the final season for Joe Louis Arena so they will be very motivated for a win against an Original 6 rival. Look for Price to get rest here for Montreal so the Wings will get to go against the Canadians back up net minder.
