MLB Prediction From Nick Menken:

Take Seattle over Boston (1:35 p.m., Thursday, April 24)

This matchup is for Thursday, April 24th, between the Seattle Mariners and the Boston Red Sox. Both teams enter this series currently in 2nd place in their respective divisions. Bryan Woo is scheduled to pitch on Thursday with a record of 2-1 on the season with 26 innings pitched and an ERA of 3.12 with 22 strikeouts. His last matchup was a loss against the Blue Jays, where he went 7 innings of work with 7 hits and three earned runs. Will look to have a bounce-back start against the Red Sox team, who are batting .246 as a team. The Red Sox will have their southpaw on the mound in Garrett Crochet. This season he is 2-1 with 32 innings of work and an ERA sitting at 1.13 with 35 strikeouts. This pitcher is the Red Sox ace on the mound. But the way this Mariners team has been swinging the bats as of late, I think they'll scratch a couple of runs off Crochet. I like the Seattle Mariners to take this game with Woo on the mound in Fenway. Take the Seattle Mariners moneyline over the Boston Red Sox.

NHL Prediction From Jason Sharpe:

Take #38 Colorado (-180) over Dallas (9:30 p.m., Thursday, May 1)

Big game number six and a decent sized priced to lay here with Colorado in this one but I think there's still some value here with the Avalanche in this one at this number. Colorado comes into this game in a must win spot as they trail three games to two in this series. The Avalanche haven't caught many breaks so far as they've actually outscored the Stars in this series but they lost both of the close games that went into overtime. Colorado has also posted the 2nd best five on five Corsi percentage so far in these playoffs and were ranked 3rd best in the league compared to Dallas ranking 18th during the regular season. Take Colorado in this game. If you don’t have an account at Doc’s Sports sign up now and get $60 in premium member picks click here.

MLB Baseball Prediction From Strike Point Sports:

Take Houston over Chicago (7:40 p.m., Friday, May 2)

The Astros offense has scuffled a bit to start the season without a couple of players that have been staples in their lineup for years, but they are starting to get some footing and scoring more runs. Their pitching staff has been decimated by injuries which has resulted in guys getting opportunities. One player who has stepped into one of those rotation spots is Hayden Wesneski who came over from the Cubs in the Kyle Tucker trade. Wesneski hasn’t dominated, but he has been very solid going at least 5 innings in all five of his starts while not allowing more than 3 earned runs in any of those. Jonathan Cannon is set to toe the rubber for the White Sox picking up the win his last time out after Chicago had lost his previous four starts. Cannon didn’t get much run support in those previous four games as his offense supplied a mere 8 runs and I think they will have trouble crossing home plate in this matchup. Take the Astros in this one. If you don’t have an account at Doc’s Sports sign up now and get $60 in premium member picks click here.

NBA Prediction From Robert Ferringo:

Take San Francisco (-1.5, -165) over Colorado (10 p.m., Friday, May 2)

We won last week with our newsletter play with Minnesota rolling in Game 3 against the Lakers. I am now on a 18-4 complimentary play run and I am now 47-18 (74%) with my last 65 Doc’s Sports newsletter plays. We have racked up 73 of 103 wins in this space (71%) and I am 118-58 (67%) with my newsletter plays over the last 175 weeks. There’s just no reason not to. Colorado is going to end up as one of the worst MLB teams of all time. They aren’t just off to a slow start. This isn’t just one bad month. This team is not a serious MLB team. Antonio Senzatela has allowed 18 runs in his last 20 innings of work across four starts and he is just not an MLB-caliber starter. Robbie Ray is 6-0 for the Giants, who are better than a lot of people expected. Colorado is hitting .206 as a team against left-handed pitching and there’s no reason to think they will show up here. San Francisco knows they can’t afford to give away games if they are going to keep pace with the Dodgers and they should pound the Rockies in this opener.

MLB Prediction From Doc's Sports:

Take Atlanta over L.A. Dodgers (7 p.m., Saturday, May 3)

The Braves get the Dodgers on their home turf after getting swept in Tinseltown early this season. Atlanta is digging their way out of a hole and will feature Spencer Schwellenbach on the hill. He has a strong WHIP of 0.98 and a much better walk rate compared to Roki Sasaki. The Dodgers are still getting overvalued and I see them struggling in this series against a desperate team. Do not miss out on Doc’s Sports Weekend Card featuring the 151st running of the Kentucky Derby along with winners in MLB, NBA, NHL, and UFL.

Soccer Prediction From Doc's Sports:

Take Las Palmas/Valencia DRAW (+230) (12:30 p.m., Saturday, May 3)

Valencia are the stronger side but they haven’t had the winning touch lately. They are coming off consecutive draws, and we think this one has a great chance to end up at a stalemate, and this is a great price for the draw. As of this writing, the under on total goals is juiced at -130 at 2.5, so a low scoring match is expected and we agree. So we have a couple chances at 0-0 or 1-1 for the under if it is indeed a low scoring match. Las Palmas has a single goal in their last two matches, and Valencia have scored one goal in three straight matches. We also like to target the draw in a likely low scoring match when the stronger team is the road side, and that is the case here on Saturday. Valencia have the second highest draw rate in LaLiga, as more than a third of their matches have ended tied. Again, nice value here and we think this one has a great chance to cash at a hefty price.

Soccer Prediction From Griffin Murphy:

Take Vancouver (+100) over Real Salt Lake (9:30 p.m., Saturday, May 3)

Real Salt Lake has been struggling to put balls in the net, and a visit to the high-flying Whitecaps is not where they will start finding goals. The fixture congestion for the Whitecaps is the only reason this line is coming in at plus money, as Vancouver is clearly the better team at this stage of the season. They are first place in the West with a 17-6 goal difference, and their promising crop of prospects is ready to challenge for tangible success. Salt Lake just lost to Toronto FC last week, a previously winless team, and that was on the comfort of their own pitch. The Whitecaps will bring the intensity to this match that the visitors will be unable to replicate.
