Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- The Orioles are 1-4 in their last 5 games.

- The Twins are 8-2 in the last 10 head to head meetings.

- Bailey Ober is 4-0 in his last 4 starts for the Twins.

Verdict: The value is on the home favorite.

FRANK’S CUTTING ROOM FLOOR FOR MONDAY, 8/10:

My “Cutting Room Floor” plays are the situations I considered the closest to being worthy of investment but did not make the “final cut” for my official plays today for subscribers. The last play I cut for Monday is with the money-line on the Tampa Bay Rays versus the Athletics listing both starting pitchers Freddy Peralta and Jacob Lopez. Tampa Bay (71-46) has won six games in a row after their  4-1 win in Seattle against the Mariners on Sunday. The Rays have won 22 of their last 34 road games after winning their last game. They have also won 9 of their last 10 games on the road. The Athletics (47-71) have won two games in a row after their 4-3 win in Boston against the Red Sox yesterday. They have lost 17 of their last 23 home games after winning their last game. They have also lost 15 of their last 18 games at home. Take Tampa Bay with the money-line listing both starting pitchers. Best of luck — Frank.

The Tuesday Comp play is on Olympique Lyonnais at 3 eastern in round 3 of the Champions League Qualifiers. Lyon is home here and will be very tough which is why they are a solid favorite. Sparta Prague is very tough on defense but will have a tough time controlling the ball here and will likely have to generate offense on Counters and they did win the first leg at home 2-1. In the series Lyon has 5 wins with 2 losses and a draw. Lyon knows this is a win or go home game so their will be a heavy motivation to win here. Play on LYON to win. GL Rob V-

Tuesday's Free MLB Pick

PLAY ON: Braves -124

The Packers roll into Pittsburgh Thursday night for the first full preseason game of the year, and the total is sitting right in that familiar 36.5 to 37.5 window. I’m on the under, and the deeper you dig into the league-wide and team numbers the more it feels like the right side of the math.

League-wide, the 37 threshold has been a reliable separator for years. Closing totals of 37 or higher have gone under at a 56.4 percent clip since 2010, a sample that runs well over 900 games. Since 2014 the under on those 37-plus numbers is even cleaner at 60.7 percent, returning solid units at standard pricing. The reverse holds too. When the number opens at 37 or lower the over hits closer to 59 or 60 percent. This matchup is perched right on the line, but the historical lean still favors the lower side once you account for how little the real starters play these days. Last year only 9.8 percent of preseason pass attempts came from quarterbacks who ended up starting Week 1. That is a sharp drop from the 30-plus percent range we saw a decade ago, and it means more backup-driven football, more conservative play-calling, and fewer explosive finishes.

The Steelers themselves have been a quiet under machine at home in the exhibition season. From 2002 through 2025 Pittsburgh as the home team went under in 67.4 percent of its preseason games, a 14-29-2 record that has produced double-digit units over the long haul. That is not a small-sample fluke. It lines up with the physical, run-heavy identity the organization has carried for years, even when the first-team defense sits most of the night. Green Bay has not been as extreme, but the Packers still play a brand of football that keeps games from turning into track meets, especially on the road in August.

Add the outdoor night setting in western Pennsylvania and the picture gets clearer. Early-season humidity and potential weather keep the ball on the ground more than the public expects. Combined scores in Week 1 preseason games have historically averaged just under 39 points against posted numbers that often sit in the mid-to-high 30s. When you stack the league-wide 56-to-60 percent under rate on 37-plus totals with Pittsburgh’s strong home under history, the edge starts looking real. At -110 a 56 percent hit rate over a 100-game sample nets you positive return after the juice. A 60 percent clip turns it into a steady grind that keeps bankrolls healthy over time.

There is the Rodgers-McCarthy reunion angle, and yes, the veteran may take 30 or 40 snaps against his old club. Even if he does, the majority of the game still belongs to the second and third units still working through timing and communication. Those groups rarely light up the scoreboard in Week 1. I like this under. It matches the long-term numbers, the team-specific home trend, and the reality of limited starter volume. Keep the stake sensible, enjoy the nostalgia, and let the points stay low.

My selection is on San Francisco plus the points over Tennessee at 9 pm et on Thursday.

The injury bug has hit the 49ers again this training camp and it has many bettors shying away from them as they host the Titans in their preseason opener on Thursday. I think this line has gone too far in Tennessee's direction. I understand the support for the Titans here in August as they do have a strong preseason quarterback rotation with experienced backups in Mitchell Trubisky, Will Levis and even Hendon Hooker who has made a splash in the preseason in prior years. With that being said, San Francisco has plenty of upside at the position behind Brock Purdy as well with Mac Jones firmly planted as the backup but Kurtis Rourke and Adrian Martinez capable of making some preseason noise. I just don't see enough of a depth advantage for a rebuilding Tennessee team to warrant it laying a field goal on the road in its first preseason contest. Both teams went 2-1 last August but dropped their respective preseason openers. It's worth noting the 49ers faced the tougher opening matchup against a deep Broncos team that has taken the preseason seriously under head coach Sean Payton. Take San Francisco (8*).

Royals vs Dodgers MLB Free Pick

The Angle(s): Expect another explosive, high-scoring contest at Dodger Stadium on Tuesday night as the Los Angeles Dodgers and Kansas City Royals meet for Game 2 following Monday's wild 6-5 Dodgers victory. With both starting pitchers facing major red flags and two relief corps showing noticeable strain lately, the offense should stay in high gear.

The Royals send veteran right-hander Michael Wacha (5-8, 3.44 ERA) to the mound. While his overall season numbers look respectable, Wacha has historically struggled against this Los Angeles order, surrendering seven, six, and seven runs over his last three career starts facing the Dodgers. 

The Dodgers counter with left-hander Blake Snell (0-1, 12.00 ERA), who makes his long-awaited return to the rotation following a long absence due to elbow surgery. Snell has looked far from sharp, having allowed four runs in one start before landing on the shelf, and he will likely be on a limited pitch count in his first start back. Expect both lineups to generate early traffic and capitalize on tired bullpens late. Gimme the over.

The Bet: Over (3%).
