WEEKEND WARRIOR: EVERY FOOTBALL PLAY, SAT & SUN, JUST $49!

Two days. Two sports. One pass. Get every Saturday College Football and Sunday NFL play from your handicapper, and every 5% max football release is in there too, no upcharge. Retail runs $78. You're in for $49!

Here's the edge most people miss: plays go out the moment they're released. Buy early in the week, and you get every play in real time, at the number your handicapper actually bet. Wait until the weekend, and you risk buying in after the line's already moved. The earlier you lock in, the more picks you catch at the right price.

This is the whole football weekend, wall to wall, for less than the price of a single max play elsewhere. Lock in your Weekend Warrior now and don't leave a snap or a number on the table.

(935) Milwaukee Brewers at (936) San Diego Padres: Moneyline
9:30pm EDT - Oct 6/2026

THE PLAY: Milwaukee Brewers 116 Dustin May (RHP), Nick Pivetta (RHP) Must Start

Milwaukee starter Dustin May projects to give up 2.0 runs with a 3.14 ERA and 1.12 WHIP.  San Diego’s lineup has hit a solid .217 (33-152) with a strong .646 OPS against May in his career.  The Padres will start Nick Pivetta.  The righty projects to give up 2.4 earned runs with a 3.96 ERA and 1.35 WHIP.  With the starting pitching clearly in the Milwaukee’s favor, look for the Padres to get a solid road win in this game on Tuesday night.
