Free Picks
THE PLAY: Indiana Pacers -1.5 (-115)
(523) Indiana Pacers at (524) Washington Wizards: Spread
Indiana Pacers -1.5 (-115)
System Performance:
Away teams with no rest off a loss, as a favorite or underdog of +2.5, facing an opponent off a win as an underdog, has a strong historical record of 89-41 (69%) ATS since 2011.
Indiana Pacers Performance:
Recent Game Performance: The Pacers lost their last game 112-105 as a 2.5-point favorite, indicating they are coming off a loss, which fits the system criteria well.
Washington Wizards Performance:
Recent Struggles: The Wizards are performing poorly with a 4-10 (28.6%) ATS record following a win, showing issues in maintaining competitive form after victories. They are also 2-7 (22.2%) ATS off a home win.
ATS Performance at Home with No Rest: At home, the Wizards have been particularly ineffective with a 1-5 ATS record when playing with no rest. This suggests they may struggle to maintain effectiveness in back-to-back game scenarios.
THE PLAY: Pittsburgh Pirates OVER 78.5 wins
Pittsburgh Pirates OVER 78.5 wins
Offensive Improvements:
New Additions: The Pirates have significantly strengthened their lineup with the additions of Marcell Ozuna, Ryan O'Hearn, and Brandon Lowe. These players bring a mix of power and potential to an already developing team.
Brandon Lowe's Power: Coming off a season where he hit 31 home runs, Lowe stands out as a significant offensive weapon, suggesting he can help elevate the Pirates’ overall run production.
Ryan O'Hearn's Efficiency: O'Hearn’s best season in terms of wins above replacement (WAR) indicates his growing impact on both offense and defense, making him a valuable asset in the lineup.
Recent season: The Pirates have posted 76, 76 and 71wins the last 3 seasons so we are only asking then to improve by a handful of games.
Pitching Staff Potential:
Paul Skenes: The 23-year-old Cy Young winner leads the pitching staff, indicating that the Pirates have a top-tier arm to anchor their rotation. His presence alone can provide a considerable advantage in close games.
Ashcraft's Emerging Performance: At just 25 years old, Ashcraft’s potential to dominate, as evidenced by his solid 2.71 ERA and 1.6 WAR in limited innings last season, can add depth and reliability to the rotation.
Jared Jones' Situation: While Jones may miss the early portion of the season, his expected contributions upon return could further bolster the pitching staff and influence overall team performance.
Division Competitiveness:
The Brewers' Offseason: With the Brewers' lackluster offseason, the division may open up, allowing the Pirates a better opportunity to compete. Pittsburgh's improvements can create a more competitive environment in the division, making games against teams like Milwaukee crucial for standings and playoff considerations.
