(929) Pittsburgh Pirates at (930) Seattle Mariners
10:10pm EDT - Jul 5/2025

THE PLAY: Pittsburgh Pirates +145 M Burrows (RHP), L Castillo (RHP) Must Start

929 Pittsburgh at Seattle

Now on a 12-4 run with these Free Plays, looking to continue on Saturday with a nice underdog. The Pirates are playing their best ball of the season, and rookie Mike Burrows is rounding into form. After initial struggles, he's now become a pretty solid member of this Pirates rotation.

He takes on Luis Castillo who is just living on reputation at this time in his career. His Statcast page show a lot of blue, which is below league average. First percentile in Extension, 14th percentile in Barrel Percentage, and 10th percentile in Hard Hit Rate. This line is simply too high based on how these teams have played as of late.

Consultant Bio

Bryan Leonard has been a Professional Handicapper since 1984 and has built his business on honesty and customer satisfaction, two traits not easily found in today's gambling climate. He has won numerous Number One documented finishes in Basketball, Baseball, and Football Handicapping in his 35+ years in the industry. In the past, Bryan has published The Roundball Report Basketball Newsletter and The Pigskin Report Football Newsletter. Bryan has also been a featured writer for Insider Football Magazine and Grantland on ESPN.com. He has also been featured in various newspapers and websites, including the Las Vegas Review Journal, where he provided weekly football recommendations. 

 

Originally from the sports handicapping hotbed of Cleveland, Ohio, he relocated to Las Vegas in 1997 for better exposure and increased opportunities, including being able to take advantage of line shopping in Sin City. Since coming out West, Bryan has hosted his own daily radio handicapping show and is frequently sought after as an expert on many local and national sports handicapping shows. A key tool in any handicapper's arsenal is a solid group of Power Ratings, and Bryan is much sought after for his expertise. As a consultant to oddsmakers, Bryan has seen the action on both sides of the counter. His numbers are regarded by many to be as strong as any in the country. 

 

Bryan was the 2000 regular season champion of the Sunset Station Invitational Handicapping Contest, as well as the second-place finisher in 2001. In fact, Bryan is the only handicapper to finish in the top five in each of the final three seasons of that contest. He was also a Top 10 Finisher in the 2003 Hilton Superbook Contest, as well as an invited guest in the 2003 and 2004 Stardust Invitationals. Mr. Leonard is also a Two Time Finalist in the Cantor Football Showdown, which is filmed live from the Golden Nugget Sportsbook in downtown Las Vegas. Bryan has now been a finalist 7 times in various Las Vegas handicapping contests. 

 

 Quality over quantity has been Bryan's mantra in sports gambling. If you are looking for a shotgun approach to this business, keep looking. As Bryan releases only the games, he bets himself. If he can't find a wager worth making that day, Bryan will pass, living to fight another day. He started out way back when specializing in the NBA with great success. And has since moved on to cover all four major sports in the United States. Bryan has produced huge profit the past three seasons in MLB action and has yet to have a losing NHL campaign. If you are looking for a long-term, proven winner in pro and college action, look no further.
