Happy Friday.

5/8 Plays

Cincinnati -115 CZR (would play to -130) ✅

• I have no reason to believe in Kansas State. They have fallen completely out of the tournament picture. The pitching has been atrocious. Cincinnati will start Nate Taylor, which gives them a sizable advantage on the mound.

ULL -105 DK (would play to -130) ✅

• This is a huge weekend for the Ragin Cajuns as they sit right on the bubble to make the NCAA tournament. Andrew Herrmann will get the ball in game one, which gives them the advantage on the mound.

Michigan +150 DK (would play to +115) ❌

• I have no idea why Minnesota is this large of a favorite. Kurt Barr is going for Michigan.

UAB -115 CZR ❌

• Charlotte’s season has been a disappointment to say the least. I figured this team would compete at the top of the AAC this season, but it has not been the case as they are tied for last place. UAB has won 4 of their last 5 games with Mason Steele on the bump. Blazers have the lineup advantage at home.

UCSD -145 DK

• UCSD has performed much better in conference play compared to non-conference. Tritons are 14-10 against Big West teams and 6-14 against the rest. They had a disappointing weekend against Long Beach last week, but rebounded well in the midweek against San Diego State.

FSU -160 CZR ✅

• This would be a huge series win for Clemson, but I just don’t see it. Wes Mendes gives FSU a sizable advantage on the mound today as Clemson counters with Dane Moehler.

McNeese -115 DK ✅

• Eric Nachtsheim will get the ball for McNeese. Nachtsheim has been one of the best arms in the Southland conference. He has a 3.63 ERA with a ridiculous 14.1 K/9. I believe he is top 5 in the country in total strikeouts.

1.25u: Arkansas + TCU +125 CZR ✅

• Tommy LaPour is back into the Friday role. I like him to bounce back after he was roughed up in relief last weekend against a good OKST lineup. Hunter Dietz is nearly an auto play for me on Fridays.

Wazzu +150 (to win 1u) ✅

• I believe Air Force is too big of a fav here. Wazzu has been playing solid ball, winning their last 5 weekend series. Air Force is 14-0 at home this season I am not putting much stock into that as they have hosted the bottom teams in the MW.

Kansas -115 DK ❌

• This may be a trap, but Kansas has been playing much better ball than WVU over the last few weeks. Voegele had his best start of the season last week against Arizona. I give Kansas the slight edge here.

Ole Miss +110 CZR ✅

• Ethan Darden is starting for TAMU. He has been great for them this year, but will be making his first Friday start. If I had to guess, he will be the opener for Shane Sdao. A series win would nearly lock Ole Miss into a hosting spot.

Troy -125 DK

• I believe Troy has a sizable advantage on the mound in game one with Tommy Egan. The lineups match up pretty even. Would play Troy to -135.

1.25u: Florida + Vandy -104 CZR

• Aidan King auto play for Florida. If you have yet to watch this kid pitch, it’s a must watch every Friday. He has been the SEC’s top starter. Vandy is playing for their season this weekend. It’s a must-sweep spot in my opinion. McDevitt has been great the last few weekends for Missouri, which does worry me. I will take my chances with Connor Fennel.

DBU -150 CZR ❌

• Liam Watt has stepped up for this DBU rotation. He is coming off a complete game against La Tech where he struck out 10 and allowed only one run. WKU lost one of their top hitters, Kyle Hayes, for the season after an injury Wednesday against EKU. Would take DBU up to -175.

FAU +138 ✅

• These two teams have been headed in opposite directions the last few weeks. FAU has been playing much better, as Wichita has taken a step back. The matchup on the mound with Litman vs Cuccias is pretty even. I’ll side with the underdog that playing much better baseball. I have this much closer to a pk.

La Tech +2.5 +100 DK ✅

• We have two of the best starters in the CUSA Taking the mound here with a 9.5 total. La Tech has been playing better over the last few weekends. I don’t have enough confidence to sprinkle the ML, but I believe they keep it close.

Stanford / NC State o11.5 -115 DK

• Too low. Wind out. NC State is low on pitching. Stanford’s bullpen is one of the worst in the country. I would play this to 13.

Houston / Arizona u12 -115 DK

• High Friday total in a large ballpark. neither team swings it very well offensives. Kramkowski has been solid for Zona the last few weeks. Hoffman is Houston’s best arm. He has made it 6+ innings in his last 3 starts against WVU Cincy and TCU.

Auburn / Miss St u11 -115 DK

• We saw this total sail over last night due to a grand slam and a few HRs. Both teams will have experienced starters on the mound with good numbers.

Texas / Tennessee u10 -115 DK ✅

• Wind is in. Volantis vs Kuhns. I dont see this game providing many runs. Vols have better splits against LHP than RHP, but Volantis is a different animal.

Texas St / Ark St u10.5 -115 DK ✅

• Wind is in and both teams struggle offensively. I would play to 9.5

UCLA / Oregon u10.5 +106 FD

• There was an 11 available but I will take 10.5 at +106 on FD. UCLA’s offense can pop off at any given time, but I like Oregon’s arms to hold them in check game one. Reddemann still isn’t throwing for UCLA, but Wylan Moss has been flawless in the Friday role.

UTRGV +130 (to win 1u) ❌

• Sprinkled a small amount here. UTRGV is on a 5 game winning streak and playing solid baseball. Tarleton is 2-3 against Southland teams this season.

Penn St G1 +140 CZR (to win 1u) ❌

• Long travel for Washington for an early first pitch. I give Penn St the edge in recent performance. Fitzgerald is throwing game one for the State while Washington is holding Kenney for game two.

Pick 3:

I forgot to post with original card so I will choose 3 that have not moved much.

TCU + Arkansas

Troy

Auburn Miss St u11
