promo code daily dog for 50% deposit match bonus worth up to $1,000 that is the best deposit match bonus out there so you might as well take advantage of it all right yesterday we had some entries that hit pitchers honestly been hitting pretty well lately uh we still have you know the one that hit was Paul Palsky and Jacob Mizraowski lower 0.5 first inning runs allowed and then we had Sherzer Gavin Williams higher than 0.5 first inning runs allowed so that was a you know 2.46 but I’ll take it um we had a refund to one of our four main MLB entries and then lost the other ones uh Kettle Marte did not perform buckton didn’t get his total bases uh and you know what Goldie didn’t play so that was a refund then um Nolan Aronado did not get us home in that one either uh that was our fourth entry uh we did also have a tennis entry that is still to be determined we needed to see the uh the third set against Fritz versus On Seca but it should get there i mean it you know it’s basically impossible not to get there the only question is if somebody doesn’t continue the match or something then it’s a refund um and then also we did hit our lotto entry three out of four so that’s that flex 4.25x 5x came home and it’s really annoying that Jacob Der Grom didn’t get that eighth strike out in his seven innings pitch but uh you know it is what it is that’s the lots that’s why we flex them all right if I said it already I’m sorry but use promo code daily dog uh D A I L Y D O G one word at underdogfantasy.com yeah I think I’ve already said it uh but that’s the promo code if you’ve not used it yet so let’s get into our MLB entries for today we got a lot going on today mlb number one Jacob Wilson higher than one and a half total bases against Dietrich Ends the pitcher for the Tigers who’s been pitching in Asia the last several years he was a Japan he was in the KBO got picked up by the Tigers the lefty he’s going to be starting here uh Jacob Wilson has just been a dog this year rookie of the year in my book uh Jacob Wilson is a dominant hitter he’s got gets he has hits for power he hits for um he hits for contact so give me higher than one and a half total bases for Jacob Wilson pairing it with Vladimir Guerrero higher than seven and a half fantasy points for the uh for the Blue Jays here to be honest the um this fantasy market is one I didn’t use that much last year with the uh fan you know like fantasy points over under or higher lower for you know some of these star players i think it’s a really good one just because the stars don’t always have you know the three hit game or something like that the they don’t always have the home run but a lot of they they do have productive at bats whether it’s getting a walk whether it’s a sack fly uh so it’s nice to get that chipped away there um you know in one way or another when you’ve got these star players so against the Guardians against Tanner Bby BBY is pretty good i’m not going to lie i don’t think BBY is bad he’s really actually in the last several weeks he is locked in but I still think Vladimir Guerrero Jr is hitting well right now and I think that he’s going to be able to have his productive at bats for us so Jacob Wilson higher than one and a half total bases vladimir Guerrero uh Jr higher than seven and a half fantasy points next up Byron Buckston higher than one and a half total bases we fell just short yesterday only had one single um you know couple couple balls made contact but uh didn’t get past the out the fielders you know there was one down the third baseline that was very close to being you know a hit so I’m going to go back with my man Byron Bucks i got a Byron Buckton problem i just want to use him in every single entry because I just liked his played approach a lot uh the strikeouts are not good but against Emerson Hancock I think the Bucks going to have a big day pairing that with Andy Pahes of the Dodgers higher than eight and a half fantasy points this dude’s batting about 300 with 16 home runs so far 24y old batting the back half the Dodgers lineup uh you know it’s funny to see like his fantasy points at 8 and a half when like basically every guy uh that’s at the top of the lineup for the Dodgers at nine and a half but we know that a lot of those guys are inconsistent i’m looking at you Mookie Bets and Freddy Freeman right now so Andy Paw has higher than eight and a half fantasy points with Byron Buckton higher than one and a half total bases at 3x multiplier mlb entry number three Brandon Laauo higher than one and a half total bases against Michael Lawrenson and the Royals obviously Low plays for the Rays laen is kind of just an inning zeder starting pitcher uh you know no offense I guess I should say um but Low is just a very very tough guy to face um at the plate and again I think Lawrence is going to allow some hard contact to this guy and then pair that with Christopher Sanchez lower than five and a half hits allowed for the Phillies against the Astros sanchez has been right around five hits allowed in pretty much all of his starts couple better a couple worse but I just think that the offense for the Astros they just they’re not consistent enough at the plate for me i think Sanchez can you know he doesn’t go very deep in games all that often either um so there is a good chance you know he you know he’s play pitches three good innings gets into the fourth uh gets through it maybe allows a couple and then if it starts to go bad in the fifth they’ll pull him out in the fifth um so you know we just got to hope that he starts out hot like he has been doing consistently uh so going to take Sanchez lower than five and a half hits loud mlb number four Pete Crow Armstrong higher than seven and a half fantasy points you know he’s a quoteunquote MV or MVP candidate but his fantasy numbers at seven and a half and Tucker is at eight and a half and low and you know Crow Armstrong’s having a better fantasy season uh better overall season than Tucker at this point so I think that this is a really good value for Pete crow Armstrong higher than seven and a half fantasy points pairing that with Marcel Ozuna higher than six and a half fantasy points against Griffin Kenny and the Mets they haven’t seen each other a ton but uh this lineup I mean I think he’s like five of six or four of six uh or no four or five for his career against um Griffin Canning so I like that little sample there for Ozuna that’s a 3x multiplier all right we will continue to the pitchers entries jeffrey Springs of the Athletics plus Dietrich ends of the Tigers higher than 0.5 first inning runs allowed um these guys that they don’t pitch I mean what ends who knows what he’s going to do coming back from Asia um but I think that he’s gonna face some tough righties and uh Jeffrey Springs don’t trust at all then I’m take Shoto Shod Imanaga andre Palante in this Cubs Cardinals game lower than 0.5 first inning runs allowed get out of the first inning and then you know who knows what’s going to happen next shoda’s obviously coming back after missing some time um but I think that both these guys can give us three outs each that is a 3x multiplier pitchers number two Shane Baz Michael Lawrenson lower than 0.5 bursting runs allowed i know that I was talking about Brandon Laauo but again I just think that these offenses don’t don’t necessarily hit the ground running all that often especially the Royals and then when pair that with Jansen Junk Hayden Birdong higher than 0.5 first inning runs allowed um I think that this game is going to be a little bit of uh all bets are off and the Giants are going to be going after it so 3.21x multiplier on that one soccer entry number one Michelle D gregorio higher than three and a half saves um you know it’s just it’s a game that’s being played that is um I don’t know if this is the the uh you know correct word um but the uh the um but just I think that it’s a it’s a game that doesn’t really matter for these teams they’re both moving on to the next round so I think there’s going to be a lot of shots on goal just you know kind of throwing them out there seeing what sticks because it’s not of a consequence so I think he’s going to have an opportunity to make some saves and then I’m going to take Khaled Isa um Khaled Isa higher than uh one and a half goals allowed khaled Isa is another goalie i’m sticking with a lot of goalies today if you have not noticed next up Ple Isa the goalie for the uh Elin squad against Wad um Alain hasn’t scored yet ad has actually scored wedad has actually scored um and I just think that this is another you know kind of exhibition game that’s being played here both these teams are out of it uh I think that there’s going to be more goals scored because man these teams are finally playing against somebody who’s in their own weight class and I think that they’re going to want to uh you know get get some offense going 3.19x multiplier on that one soccer entry number two we’re going to go with Asen Bonu higher than 0.5 one half goals allowed uh apologies for the way I’m pronouncing it but uh Yina Buuno is the goalie for um Alhillal i think that uh you know I think that Pichuka they they had 10 shots on uh Corttois in their last game they’re going to get goal or shots on goal uh and I think that he is going to concede one early pichuka is just you know it’s been a tough run so far they’re they’re eliminated nothing to lose so throw the throw the shots on net then I’m going to take Tiba Tibal Cor Corttois higher than two and a half saves saves um for uh oh my god for Real Madrid uh Tbat Corttois sorry I’m just like bouncing through all these different languages and I cannot pronounce these names very well back to back to back uh Toter than two and a half saves though against um a real uh Red Bull Salsberg salsburg again they you know one of these teams could be missing out on the next round so they really do need to uh play play well here is what I will say uh they can’t just let this thing slide on by um so there is you know cuz if Alhal beats Pichuka they are going to be advancing um Real Madrid and Salsburg if one of these teams loses they are going to not be advancing so there is a world where we go to you know tie breaks and goal differential and all that stuff um so again the really important games happening in this group 3.71x multiplier on that one though with Yin Abuno higher than 0.5 one half goals allowed into Borto higher than two and a half saves tennis entry number one Roberto Batus Batista higher than 23 and a half games played versus Mickelson again I think these guys are going to go deep into this one batista Gut likes this tournament he’s going to push hard mickelson’s a better player so I think that they do end up in a decider set similar situation jacob Mensic higher than 23 and a half games played versus Alejandro Dividina it’s not going to be easy to get this um this Spaniard off of these courts and I think that also that there’s tiebreak possibility for sure in this one that’s a 3x multiplier tennis entry number two quarantine mute higher than 23 and a half games played versus Learner Tien again neither of these guys super serve dominant i mean Mout was going crazy with the underhand serves in his last match uh I think we’re going to go three sets here for sure or tie breaks again are also a factor in these grasscourt matches linda Nuscova higher than 0.5 sets lost or sorry lower than 0.5 sets won against Mera Andrea linda Nuscova lower than 0.5 sets won against Mera Andrea sorry underdog changed up how they list some of the stuff so that’s why I was stumbling over it um but that’s a 3.39x multiplier with Nuscova not to win a set versus Mirror Andrea and Moute and uh learner TN higher than 23 and a half games played wnba entry number one we are going to go with uh Caitlyn Clark higher than 20 and a half points she has had some terrible shooting game she’s back at home here i think she can get back on the right track and then Aha Wilson higher than 33 and a half points rebounds and assists uh this 0.9x multiplier she is actually she had 34 in her last game she is again it’s a backto-back it’s a little scary but I think that she’s rounding into form after missing some time with that head injury lotto entry number one Caitlyn Clark higher than three and a half three-pointers made a little bit aggressive I know but uh I’m She’s shot like one for 17 in her last two games it’s got to rebound it’s got to equal equal out then I’m deal with Michael Lawrenson higher than three and a half earn runs allowed just don’t let him be in the first inning will Smith of the Dodgers higher than one and a half RBI facing the lefty Austin Gome sea Suzuki higher than 0.5 RBI’s against Andre Palante 30.66x or 18.39x if it goes four for four on the flex 4.1x if it goes three out of four on the flex which is what we hit yesterday dong squad number one Brent Rooker higher than 0.5 home runs andy Pah has higher than 0.5 home runs kyle Tucker higher than 0.5 home runs 97.49x or 48.74x/8.33x if you flex it dong squad number two bobby Jr i don’t like Shane Baz that’s the pitcher for the uh Rays jordan back higher than 0.5 home runs against old man Clayton Kershaw lukeley higher than 0.5 home runs against Woods Richardson 99.58x flexit 49.79X if it goes three for three 7.94x if it goes two out of three and then you got to throw in the golf one and I I got to be full transparency i literally just look at Wes Reynolds uh at Wes Reynolds one on Twitter uh for my golf insight and go to bon.com/golf and you can read his whole article i took Colin Mir Morawa Turney finishing position better than 10 and a half and I took Ameiliano Grillo higher than 0.5 made cuts 2.52x nothing too crazy there but uh we’re trying to make some money and that’s how I’ll go out so good luck on your picks today use promo
