How We Did: Wins Up Front, Misses in Context

It was a profitable day across the board, with our best bets cashing in style. Fitzpatrick delivered a Top-10 finish at the BMW Championship, Vlad Jr. went deep to crush his total bases prop, and Tarik Skubal mowed down hitters to clear his strikeout line with ease. Sure, a few long shots and parlays didn’t land, but the core plays hit exactly as planned—proving once again that sticking to high-confidence spots pays off.


BMW Championship at Caves Valley

🟒 HIT: Matt Fitzpatrick – Top-10 Finish (+240)

Fitzpatrick’s precision game played perfectly on the renovated Caves Valley layout, and he came through with another strong finish to cash the Top-10 ticket.


πŸ”΄ MISS: Ben Griffin – First-Round Leader (+3300)

Griffin’s first-round scoring average made him a tempting long shot, but Robert MacIntyre stole the show with an 8-under 62 and a three-shot lead after day one.


πŸ”΄ MISS: Fitzpatrick + Chris Gotterup Top-10 Parlay

Fitzpatrick did his part, but Gotterup didn’t break into the top 10, ending the boosted payout hopes.


MLB Props & Matchups

🟒 HIT: Vlad Guerrero Jr. over 1.5 Total Bases (+100)

Cash with room to spare—Vlad Jr. launched a homer off Chicago to clear the line in one swing.

🟒 HIT: Tarik Skubal over 7.5 Strikeouts

Skubal dominated again, cruising past his strikeout total with ace-level stuff.


πŸ”΄ MISS: Kyle Schwarber over 1.5 Total Bases (+110)

Schwarber’s power was muted in a pitcher-friendly night, and he never got the extra-base hit we needed.


πŸ”΄ MISS: JesΓΊs Luzardo over 6.5 Strikeouts (-120)

Luzardo didn’t find the same strikeout groove he’d shown recently, falling short of the mark.


πŸ”΄ MISS: Corbin Carroll to hit a Home Run (+350)

The Coors Field setting was ripe for bombs, but Carroll didn’t leave the yard.

πŸ”΄ MISS: Value Parlay (Vlad Jr. TB + Skubal Ks + Carroll hit)

Vlad and Skubal hit, but Carroll didn’t record a knock, ending the parlay.



Final Tally

🟒 What Hit:

  • Matt Fitzpatrick Top-10 (+240)
  • Vlad Jr. over 1.5 TB (+100)
  • Tarik Skubal over 7.5 Ks



πŸ”΄ What Missed:

  • Ben Griffin FRL
  • Fitzpatrick + Gotterup Top-10 Parlay
  • Schwarber over 1.5 TB
  • Luzardo over 6.5 Ks
  • Carroll HR
  • Vlad Jr. + Skubal + Carroll Parlay


Bottom line: Our best bets—Fitzpatrick Top-10, Vlad Jr. TB, and Skubal Ks—were all winners, delivering a profitable slate despite the misses on the riskier plays.
