Sports Corner Daily’s Results and Yesterday’s Recap
‼️ Lock in early today we have an early game on today’s plays starting at 1:10pm ET!
We dropped our two .5 unit plays but won our NBA matchup of which we went a full unit. Taking us to even on the night yesterday. 👇
❌ MLB - Cleveland -1.5 - .5 Unit - Lost
❌ MLB - Pittsburgh ML - .5 Unit - Lost
✅ NBA - Golden State -7.5 - 1 Unit - Win
Lets take a quick recap of our picks from yesterday. Starting in the NBA where the Golden State Warriors comfortably covered our -7.5 selection with a dominant 133-95 win over the Phoenix Suns. Steph Curry led the way with 25 points, 9 rebounds, and 6 assists, while second year guard Brandin Podziemski added 22 points as Golden State pulled away early and never looked back. Golden State is currently the 6 seed in the western standings. In MLB action, our moneyline pick on the Pirates didn’t hit, as St. Louis built a 5-1 lead and held off a late rally to win 5-3 despite Bryan Reynolds launching a two-run homer for Pittsburgh. Meanwhile, in Cleveland, our -1.5 run line selection on the Guardians fell short despite a 1-0 walk-off win over the White Sox. The game remained scoreless until the ninth, when Nolan Jones drew a bases-loaded walk to push across the only run—enough for the win, but not for the cover.

Detroit to win
Analysis:
We remain skeptical about the Yankees as favorites in this matchup, particularly after their lackluster performances in Detroit, where they were soundly beaten 5-1 and 5-0 in consecutive games. Their offense has notably faltered against competent pitching, and they now face Jack Flaherty, who has an impressive 2.38 ERA over two starts, suggesting further difficulties for the Yankees at the plate. Additionally, the Tigers have shown considerable improvement since their opening three-game sweep by the Dodgers, winning 7 of their last 8 games and demonstrating they could have easily won two of those losses to Los Angeles. In contrast, while Yankees’ starter Max Fried has…[Click here to get the Full write up on this bet]...

Tampa Bay to win
Analysis:
Tuesday marked what felt like the first truly bizarre day of the MLB season, and it’s clear that it won’t be the last as teams continue to surprise us. The Angels have shown that they are performing better than anticipated, but they did strain their bullpen significantly in their win against the Rays. Compounding this challenge, they are currently 0-2 in the two starts made by lefty Yusei Kikuchi, who carries a 4.50 ERA. Notably, many Rays players have prior experience facing him, which could play a crucial role in their approach at the plate. On the other hand, Ryan Pepiot, with a solid 2.45 ERA, has allowed two earned runs in each of his starts this season, but he had a strong showing against…[Click here to get the Full write up on this bet]...
NBA: Denver vs. Sacramento - 1 Unit - 10:00pm ET

Over 234.5
Analysis:
Historically, when a winning team fires its coach, it often leads to a decline in defensive consistency and chaotic gameplay. Consider the Nuggets, who might face a similar fate. They have gone over the point total in 9 of their last 13 games, including 4 of their last 6 on the road. Their defensive struggles are highlighted by a 21st ranking in defensive rating over the last 10 games, which raises concerns about their ability to contain opposing offenses. Meanwhile, the Kings have been on an impressive scoring streak, surpassing 120 points in three consecutive games, yet they struggle to stop anyone, particularly when defending the three-point shot. Sacramento has been particularly…[Click here to get the Full write up on this bet]...
