If you have not been watching the College World Series, you missed a ton of great baseball and last night was awesome, as we will talk about. The NBA Draft came and went, and maybe the most compelling story is how one drafted player chose to dress.
Cincinnati baseball fans are fired up as their team is on an 11-game winning streak and in first place. They will host Atlanta, the best team in the NL, and Cincy fans are excited, This and other betting news with trends and free picks and a quick great story about Peyton Manning when he was with the Colts.
There were many frustrated Rays backers who had them on the RL, along with those who took a flyer on K.C. who got an unexpected payday. That dropped the Rays bullpen to 15th in run prevention.
Because the NBA Draft is also a fashion show, for our money, Kansas star and Raptors choice Gradey Dick won the – Worst Dressed hands down, as you can see.
Then, Tigers stud Tommy White hit a walk-off homer in the bottom of the 11th to send his team to face Florida for the championship starting Saturday. Florida is now favored to win the CWS
Blake Snell’s last 6 starts:
Now only if San Diego would take his lead.
Former Tigers coach Les Miles thus falls below the winning percentage needed for College Football Hall of Fame consideration. Wade is now at McNeese State, where he’ll serve a 10-game suspension to start the season and face recruiting restrictions until 2025.
BetOnline series price has Atlanta at -200 and Cincy at +170.
Let’s get some winners! Have a great weekend, see you back here Monday.

About Last Night…
MLB
Have to admit, it seemed odd that Tampa Bay went out as a -360 ML choice over Kansas City and ended up dropping to anywhere from -300 to -325. As it turns out, there was a reason for it as after a sleepy start, Tampa Bay took a 5-3 lead into the eighth inning but gave up the tying runs and permitted one more in the ninth to lose to the Royals 6-5.There were many frustrated Rays backers who had them on the RL, along with those who took a flyer on K.C. who got an unexpected payday. That dropped the Rays bullpen to 15th in run prevention.
NBA Draft
There were not a lot of surprises Thursday night, with the first five picks starting with Victor Wembanyama going as expected. Of those five players taken, only one played in college (Brandon Miller) and the Thompson twins played in the G-League and are the highest pair of brothers chosen in the same draft (4 & 5) since Markieff and Marcus Morris went No. 13 and No. 14 a dozen years ago.Because the NBA Draft is also a fashion show, for our money, Kansas star and Raptors choice Gradey Dick won the – Worst Dressed hands down, as you can see.
College World Series
Wake Forest and LSU gave us a classic pitchers battle as aces Rhett Lowder and Paul Skenes, respectively, combined to throw 15 shutout innings. Wake Forest had a chance to win when this happened.Then, Tigers stud Tommy White hit a walk-off homer in the bottom of the 11th to send his team to face Florida for the championship starting Saturday. Florida is now favored to win the CWS
