Ricky's 1* play on TOR.

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.

- Toronto is 10-5 ATS in its last 15 games.

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. German Bundesliga Take Bayern Munich -1.5 GL over St. Pauli (12:30 p.m. EST, Saturday April 11) Bayern Munich is one of the best offensive sides in the world and if they are on their game they can win by multiple goals at home or on the road. These sides haven’t played many times but Bayern one of two lifetime meetings here 8-1. We don’t think this will be that lopsided of a contest, but this one is definitely a mismatch. Bayern Munich is the top road side in the Bundesliga as they haven’t lost all season with 11 wins, 3 draws and a +30 goal differential in 14 matches. So, they are winning their road matches by an average of more than two goals per match. St. Pauli is in the bottom four for home results this season and have a -6 goal differential here. Bayern Munich doesn’t take it easy on bad sides, and they should unleash their full arsenal here. The most excitement St. Pauli might get is autographs from the Munich players before the match! Get on this line easy as Bayern Munich is a very public side and will be bet up during the week.

My selection is on Tampa Bay over New York at 7:10 pm et on Friday.

The knee-jerk reaction from most bettors is probably to back the Yankees to rebound off consecutive losses against the Athletics. We'll go the other way, however, and back the Rays at a nice price at home. Tampa Bay is probably happy that New York is electing to send Luis Gil to the mound for his first start of the season rather than the original slated starter in Max Fried. The Rays rank eighth in the majors in wOBA against right-handed pitching compared to 16th against lefties so far this season. Speaking of those splits, the Yankees are surprisingly in last place in baseball in wOBA against southpaw pitching this season and they'll face one in Steven Matz on Friday. Matz is off to a solid start to the campaign, sporting a 3.33 FIP and 1.00 WHIP. Take Tampa Bay (8*).

AAA Sports' Selection: San Francisco Giants (ML):

San Francisco will start Landen Roupp -- has had an earned run average of 3.80 or better in both of his first two seasons.

The Giants stated the year off 3-8 and have now won back-to-back games, allowing zero runs over those two games.

They head out East for the first time this year, but that shouldn't be an issue with the day off yesterday.

Baltimore will start Shane Baz -- was a member of TB before making the move to Baltimore this offseason.

Last year was probably Baz' worst year, throwing in 31 games and having an earned run average of 4.87.

He's not been great, and we're taking SF today.
