Your Sunday freebie is the Braves on the Run Line over the Marlins.
After losing on Friday to Miami, 2-0, Atlanta came back strong last night with an 8-1 pasting of Miami, and today they will close out this home stand with a win by at least 2 runs over the Fish.
The Braves stand at 4-2 in the season series against the Marlins this year, and 3 of the 4 wins have come by 2 runs or better.
Julio Teheran has settled into a very nice groove, as he has won each of his last 3 starts, and sports an ERA under 2 in that stretch.
Miami sends Wei-Yin Chen who is winless over his last 3 starts at 0-2 and he does sport an ERA over 10 over his last 16-plus innings worked.
The Marlins are just 3-8 their last 11 played in Atlanta, so take the Bravos on the Run Line to dispatch them easily this Sunday afternoon.

Sunday's comp play is on the Jets of Winnipeg to stay alive in their best-of-seven series against the Golden Knights.
Vegas has skated to 3 straight series wins as they look to close things out tonight, but I have a feeling the Jets have one final stand left in them - especially on their home ice.
Winnipeg is 37-10-2 on their home ice this season, and the host in the series has won 5 of the 7 career showdowns.
Connor Hellebuyck protects his net a little better this afternoon, and the Jets live to play one more game in Sin City on Tuesday night.
Take the Jets.

The NHL Comp Play is on Winnipeg at 3:05 eastern.
The Jets are home and facing elimination. The Good news is that teams in this round at home that won game 1 an lost the next 3 have been profitable in game 5 historically. The Host team is 5-2 in this series and Winnipeg is 43-12 at home and 11-2 vs a team that allowed 2 or less goals last out. Look for Winnipeg to force a game 6. On Sunday a Powerful card is up and led by the NBA Conference Finals 100% Game of the Year and our ESPN Sunday night Play of the Month backed with a rare Database system. For the NHL Free pick. Play on Winnipeg. RV- GC Sports

A's vs. Blue Jays
A's-102
The reeling Toronto Blue Jays have lost six of their last seven overall and today they'll hand the ball to the struggling Joe Biagini (0-2, 7.98 ERA). This will be his fourth start this season and he has been roughed up badly in his last two starts, allowing 10 runs on 14 hits through just nine innings of work. In 21 career starts in the majors, Biagini is 2-14 with a 6.05 ERA and the Blue Jays are 3-14 in his last 17 starts.
The A's turn to Daniel Mengden (3-4, 3.75 ERA) who had a poor start to the season, but he is is 3-2 with a 3.75 ERA in his past seven starts (5-2 Oakland record). Athletics are 5-1 in Mengden's last six road starts.
Free pick on Oakland Athletics.

My free play is the Houston Rockets over the Golden State Warriors in today's Game 3 showdown in Oakland.
This is the most important game of the entire series for the Western Conference's regular season champion, as the Rockets need to steal this game. The series is tied because Golden State took one in Houston, and now it's time for the Rockets to get it back.
Houston doesn't too bad on the road, scoring 110.2 points while ordering room service. And make note the Rockets have allowed just 102.5 on the road, while Golden State is giving up 105 points at home.
And more recently, the Rockets have given up 101 in their last five games. The defending champion Warriors? They've allowed 109.6 points over their last five trips to the wood.
The road team has won three of the five meetings this season - in both the regular season and playoffs - while the Rockets have won three of the five meetings overall.
Houston has a good enough defense to hamper the Warriors and keep this one closer than a touchdown.
Play the road pup.

My free play for Sunday is on the Seattle Mariners over the Detroit Tigers in a rout.
Since every MLB wager on a run line or total auto-lists pitchers, I want you to be sure the two pitchers on your ticket, when making this play, are Francisco Liriano and Wade LeBlanc. If they are not the pitchers of record when making your play, disregard this play.
Liriano steps to the hill after giving up eight runs on 11 hits over 8.1 innings over his past two outings, while also walking seven batters. Thing is, Liriano was 3-1 with a 2.97 ERA in his first six starts this season prior to that. But he's lost control of his command, and now has to pitch against a hungry Mariners team that has hit better this month that it has all season.
Seattle, which is hitting .259 overall this season, is hitting .264 in the month of May - eighth best in the majors.
The M's will give LeBlanc plenty of support, and that's all the 33-year-old left-hander will need. He has been outstanding since moving into the rotation in place of an injured Erasmo Ramirez, allowing just one run on 10 hits in 15 innings in three starts. He was fantastic in throwing six scoreless innings on three hits Monday in Minnesota.
Take Seattle on the Run Line in this one.

Rockets vs. Warriors
UNDER 226½
I'm recommending a play on Warriors and Rockets finishing UNDER the total set here by the books for Game 3 on Sunday. The two teams split the first two games in Houston. Golden State came out and made a statement in Game 1, limiting the Rockets to just 106 points on 46% shooting. The Warriors didn't bring the same defensive intensity in Game 2 and the Rockets exploded for 127 points. Houston's defense was poor in Game 1, but looked like a completely different team in Game 2.
As much fire-power as these two teams have on the offensive side of the ball, they are also two of the best the league has to offer on the defensive side. So much is at stake here for both sides, as each desperately wants to take the 2-1 lead. I think given that the defensive intensity is going to be way up there for both teams, there's simply too much value here with this high total to pass up a play on the UNDER.
UNDER is 15-5-1 in the Warriors last 21 off a game where they didn't cover and 3-0-1 in their last 4 off a SU loss. UNDER is also 4-0 in the Rockets last 4 games played on 3 or more days of rest, 9-1 in their last 10 road games after a combined score of 215 or more in each of their last 2 games and 7-0 in their last 7 road games after playing 3 straight at home. Take the UNDER!
