THE PLAY: Aaron Wiggins OVER 8.5 Pts+Reb+Ast -125 BETMGM

Wiggins has gone over in 8 straight games, and he's gone over in every game this series getting 11, 13 and 10.  What I love is the consistency with his minutes and numbers as he's played 16, 12 and 16 minutes and he's scored 6 points in every game and he's added 5, 4 and 7 Rebs+Assts so he's not dependent on one category.  The Pelicans have been shooting miserably in this series which has been giving the Thunder plenty of rebounding opportunities which has helped him average 3.7 rebounds per game in only 14.7 minutes per game.  It's a very low number that Wiggins has been able to get over in every game this series, and I'll take him to go over it again tonight.

THE PLAY: Jorge Polanco Hits + Runs + RBIs Under 1.5 (-140) M Fried (LHP), B Miller (RHP) Must Start

Polanco has gone under in 23 out of 28 games this season, and there is a lot to like about fading him again today.  The Mariners have the 6th lowest amount of runs scored this season so they struggle to put up runs as a team which makes it tough for Polanco to score.  He faces Fried today for Atlanta, and although Fried got beat up in his first couple starts of the season he's been really good the last few games including a 92 pitche 9 inning gem against Miami.  Polanco only has 3 hits and 1 run against lefties this season in 21 at bats, and he's at home where he's only batting .173 this season.  He's never been a dynamic stats guy, and this year he's off to a miserable start with only 15 hits, 8 RBI's and 9 runs scored.  The Mariners have a decent record this year, but their wins are mostly in low scoring games, and the last 2 games Polanco has gone over this total were at Colorado in the highest scoring stadium, and in a game the Reds used their bullpen for starters.  Polanco has only faced Fried in 3 at bats, but he doesn't have a hit, run or RBI against him.  Take the under today.
