Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Tuesday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler open Tuesday's show on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed with a quick recap of Essler's round at TPC Sawgrass, where he parred the famous island green 17th hole, before turning to a Monday betting recap in which the Brewers moneyline fell short again but an over in the Astros game cashed thanks to a three run 10th inning. From there the hosts work through a full Tuesday MLB card. At 3:26 they break down Paul Skenes and the Pittsburgh Pirates visiting Eury Perez and the Miami Marlins, questioning whether Skenes at minus 112 is a gift or a trap given his rough road numbers, and landing on Miami in the first five innings with the under. At 7:14 the focus shifts to Tanner Bibee and the Cleveland Guardians against Drew Anderson and the Detroit Tigers, with rain in the forecast and both hosts wary of laying a price behind Anderson in what could turn into a bullpen day for Detroit. At 11:25 the hosts return to a familiar theme, fading Bryan Woo's brutal road splits as the Seattle Mariners visit Ryan Weathers and the New York Yankees, backing New York in the first five innings. At 14:53 they weigh Dylan Cease's heavy recent workload, including a one hit shutout of Boston, as the Red Sox visit Toronto, with Essler leaning the over and Manji preferring Toronto in the first five given his lack of trust in the Blue Jays offense. At 19:05 the Mets visit the Braves, with Nolan McLean and Martin Perez both trending toward an over, backed by New York's recent history of hammering Perez. At 22:49 the card closes with the Brewers visiting the Padres, where sharp money has pushed the line toward San Diego despite the majority of tickets sitting on Kyle Harrison, leading both hosts to the Padres and the under. The hosts also run through a batch of additional games, including a look at Hunter Brown starting in San Francisco and a Los Angeles Dodgers team total play against Kansas City's Michael Wacha, tying into the ripple effects of the Tarik Skubal trade. At 29:30 the show shifts into its recurring NFL win total series with a full breakdown of the San Francisco 49ers, who sit near nine and a half wins for the coming season. Manji lays out the offseason additions of Mike Evans and Christian Kirk, the return of Deebo Samuel, and last year's plus 66 point differential in a loaded NFC West, while Essler zeroes in on a difficult closing schedule that includes the league's first regular season game in Australia against a Los Angeles Rams team now featuring Myles Garrett after his blockbuster trade away from Cleveland. The two hosts land on opposite sides of the total, with Essler leaning under and Manji taking the over and projecting a ten win season if the roster stays healthy. The episode wraps with best bets from both hosts, Essler backing the Yankees moneyline against Seattle and Manji riding the Dodgers team total over against Kansas City, plus a lighthearted exchange about fantasy football plans for the year. Cash That Ticket airs daily on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed, delivering sharp, matchup by matchup betting analysis across baseball, football, and beyond for listeners chasing an edge on every card. New episodes continue tomorrow with a breakdown of the Kansas City Chiefs win total heading into the AFC West race. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Munaf Manji talks betting for Monday. Munaf Manji runs the Monday, August 10 edition of Cash That Ticket on his own, with Dave Essler away handling personal matters and expected back Tuesday, when the show will also tackle the next NFL win total as preseason opens this week. Munaf opens with an honest look at a rough recent stretch for baseball wagering, both on the podcast and for his clients on Pregame.com, pointing to Sunday's setback as the latest example. He had backed the Brewers at minus one and a half with Jacob Misiorowski on the mound, only to watch Kody Clemens hit a two run home run that tied the game and forced extra innings. Milwaukee won outright but the run line ticket fell short. Friday's Best Bet podcast fared better, cashing on the Cleveland Guardians moneyline with Parker Messick starting. Munaf also touches on the Dodgers, who snapped a losing streak over the weekend only to fall again on Sunday against the Diamondbacks, where Eduardo Rodriguez worked seven strong innings against a Los Angeles offense he calls shockingly quiet given the roster's talent. From there, Munaf runs his weekly standings check, noting the Rays hold a five and a half game lead over the Yankees in the American League East while the Red Sox slide to seven games back after dropping their weekend series to the Athletics. The White Sox lead the Tigers by three and a half games in the AL Central, and the AL West sits as the league's tightest race, with the Astros up half a game on the Rangers and the Mariners four back in a division where every team carries a negative run differential. In the National League, the Braves hold an eight and a half game lead over the Phillies, the Brewers are up five and a half on the Cubs, and the Dodgers remain seven and a half games clear of the Diamondbacks despite their recent stumble. Munaf then works through five matchups on the Monday card. Sonny Gray and the Red Sox visit Jameson Taillon and the Blue Jays, with Gray's strong road and night splits pushing Munaf toward Boston on the moneyline despite a rocky recent history against this Toronto lineup. Christian Scott and Bryce Elder headline Mets at Braves, where a surging Mets offense and warm, carrying conditions in Atlanta have Munaf leaning to the over. Andrew Painter continues to scuffle for the Phillies against Hunter Dobbins and the Cardinals, and with a bullpen Munaf calls putrid over the last month, he leans to the over, whether through the first five innings or the full game. Logan Henderson gets the assignment for the Brewers against Casey Mize and the Padres, and between Henderson's dominant recent form and a Sunday Night Baseball fade trend that favors Milwaukee, Munaf names this his best bet of the show, the Brewers moneyline at minus 115. Blade Tidwell makes just his second career start for the Giants opposite Hayden Wesneski and the Astros, and rather than lay heavy juice on a shorthanded Houston lineup, Munaf leans to the over. He credits Yordan Alvarez with carrying the top of the Astros order while Jose Altuve works through a down year, with Jeremy Peña, Cam Smith, and Daulton Varsho all contributing. Before wrapping, Munaf previews tonight's marquee pitching matchup, Tarik Skubal for the Dodgers against Noah Cameron and the Royals, calling it the best chance yet for a struggling Los Angeles offense to turn things around given Skubal's strong recent history against Kansas City. Munaf closes with a reminder about the Pregame.com Bulk Dollars promotion, twenty dollars for one hundred Bulk Dollars that can be spent like cash across any best bet package and never expires, even though the promotion window itself closes at midnight tonight. He signs off hoping Dave Essler returns Tuesday and that the next episode arrives with a winning best bet already in hand, wishing listeners good luck with their bets and encouraging them to enjoy the games.

Munaf Manji talks betting for Friday. Munaf Manji hosts Friday, August 7's Cash That Ticket on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed, opening with a recap of Thursday's card before working through a full slate of Major League Baseball betting angles for the night ahead. He reviews a winning Washington Nationals team total for Uncle Dave against Cristopher Sanchez and the Phillies, a tough loss on the Kansas City Royals despite a strong start from Bailey Ober for the Minnesota Twins and a solid outing from Michael Wacha, and touches on the grind of a rough recent stretch handicapping baseball across the industry. He also breaks down the NFL Hall of Fame Game, where rookie quarterback Haynes King led the Carolina Panthers to a 33 to 30 win over the Arizona Cardinals on a last second touchdown that blew well past the total, and shares a note that Garrett Crochet is expected back for the Boston Red Sox out of the bullpen rather than as a starter for now. He runs through the rest of Thursday's scores, including a marathon 13 inning win for the Red Sox over the White Sox, a blowout for Detroit over Seattle, and a Mets sweep of the Cleveland Guardians that included a difficult team debut for newly acquired starter Foster Griffin. From there Munaf builds out Friday's full card, starting with the Cincinnati Reds visiting the Washington Nationals in what looks like a bullpen day for Chase Petty against Cade Cavalli, with the Nationals offense cooling after trading Luis Garcia Junior to the Yankees and losing James Wood to injury. He covers Tyler Mahle's first start for the Atlanta Braves against former teammate Max Fried and the surging Yankees, and identifies the marquee matchup of the night as Parker Messick and the Cleveland Guardians visiting Noah Schultz and the division leading Chicago White Sox in a tightly bunched American League Central race. He also previews Roki Sasaki and the Los Angeles Dodgers visiting a struggling Merrill Kelly and the Arizona Diamondbacks, and Robbie Ray's San Diego Padres debut against Ronel Blanco and the Houston Astros, before running through quick hits on Jose Soriano's Toronto Blue Jays debut against Zach Wheeler and the Phillies, Payton Tolle and the Red Sox against Jack Perkins and the Athletics, Kevin Gausman's Chicago Cubs debut against the Royals, and the Cardinals hosting Ryan Feltner and the Rockies. Munaf highlights the biggest promotion of the year at Pregame dot com, where 20 dollars buys bettors 100 bulk dollars in credit, a 400 percent bonus that never expires and can be applied toward any picks package on the site. His official Cash That Ticket best bet of the night lands on the Cleveland Guardians at minus 136 on the moneyline over the Chicago White Sox, built around Parker Messick against a struggling Noah Schultz in a series carrying real weight for the division race, with Munaf noting that a Guardians win or sweep this weekend could pull Cleveland level with Chicago atop the American League Central depending on how the Minnesota Twins fare in their own series in Milwaukee. It is a full recap and preview built for bettors chasing value across totals, moneylines, and team props on a busy Friday slate, delivered with the same numbers driven, conversational approach that has made Cash That Ticket a daily stop for Major League Baseball bettors on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed.

Griffin Warner talks betting on Friday. Griffin Warner runs through a stacked Friday, August 7 Major League Baseball slate on Episode 80 of What I Bet, part of the Straight Outta Vegas AM Podcast feed, breaking down all 11 games at a moment when several rotations are still shifting in the wake of the trade deadline. He opens with the Mets sending Zach Thornton to Pittsburgh against Carmen Mlodzinski, reading the heavy under juice on the eight and a half total as a sign the market expects a Pirates bullpen game, especially with new arm Luke Weaver now closing and Mets closer Devin Williams sitting the last two nights. Griffin leans toward New York at plus 129 and likes the over, suggesting patience for a push to eight. He then covers Jose Soriano's Blue Jays debut against Zach Wheeler and the Phillies, preferring the Toronto run line at plus one and a half over the moneyline, and the first five under four and a half. Tyler Mahle's first start for the Braves against former teammate Max Fried in the Bronx draws Griffin's trust in the Atlanta bullpen despite a modest season, landing on the Braves at plus 134 and the under eight. He gives a brief look at the Athletics visiting a red hot Red Sox club before diving into the Angels and Marlins, where he backs Tyler Phillips and multiple unders against a struggling Los Angeles lineup. The show's strongest opinion arrives with the Guardians visiting the White Sox, where Griffin fades Parker Messick despite respecting his stuff, pointing to Cleveland's shaky bullpen, poor defense, and inability to hit with runners on, and lands on Chicago at plus 122 with unders on both the full game and first five totals. He explains why the Twins overspent caution at the deadline on players like Dean Kremer even as Zebby Matthews starts in Milwaukee, builds a live number on air for Kevin Gausman and the Cubs visiting Daniel Lynch and the Royals, and gives quick reads on the Rockies at the Cardinals and the Orioles at the Rangers, a series carrying real American League wild card weight against Nathan Eovaldi. Roki Sasaki and the Dodgers traveling to face Merrill Kelly and the Diamondbacks brings out Griffin's long standing support for Kelly, who he calls himself a stan of, with the Dodgers bullpen still sorting out closer Edwin Diaz's role working in Arizona's favor. He closes his game by game breakdown with Robbie Ray's Padres debut against Ronel Blanco and the Astros, and a Rays and Mariners matchup between Drew Rasmussen and Logan Gilbert that he calls arguably the best pitching matchup of the night. Before locking in his official pick, Griffin shares a Pregame dot com promo code, hit fifty, good for fifty dollars off Major League Baseball Second Half All Access, which runs through the World Series and drops from 349 dollars to 299 dollars through August 10. His official What I Bet best bet of the episode is the San Diego Padres at minus 120 over the Houston Astros, citing Robbie Ray's strong recent form, a deep Padres bullpen, and doubts about Houston's offense beyond Yordan Alvarez and Jeremy Pena. Throughout the episode Griffin threads in bigger picture storylines, from the Mets continuing to mash without Juan Soto to Cleveland's fall from first place, the Twins facing fan backlash over a quiet deadline, and a wide open American League wild card race where the Yankees and Red Sox look closer to locking up spots than everyone else chasing the final berth. It is a full rundown built for bettors looking for value across every window of the night, from first pitch runs to first five totals to closing numbers, delivered with the same mix of numbers and opinion that has made the show a daily stop for Major League Baseball bettors all season long, with new episodes covering every slate straight through the rest of the season and into the playoffs.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk sports betting for Tuesday. Munaf Manji and Uncle Dave Essler open with a look back at a profitable recent stretch before diving into a loaded Tuesday MLB card that features five headline matchups and closes with an early breakdown of the Green Bay Packers win total for the coming NFL season. The guys start in Cleveland, where Sean Manaea and the Mets face Joey Cantillo and the Guardians, debating whether a deflated Mets team total makes more sense than laying a heavy price on Cleveland, especially with New York missing Juan Soto and the Guardians bullpen showing some recent cracks. From there they move to Cincinnati, where JT Ginn and the Athletics face Brady Singer and the Reds, with both hosts leaning toward two ground ball pitchers keeping the total under in mild conditions, while an Athletics club missing Shea Langeliers and Brent Rooker adds to the case. The White Sox and Red Sox get a look next, with Davis Martin cooling off significantly since a hot start and Boston riding a long run as a road underdog after adding catcher Adley Rutschman at the trade deadline. The headline game of the night sends Tarik Skubal to the mound for his first start in a Dodgers uniform against Javier Assad and the Cubs, and the guys dig into lopsided betting splits on the under before landing on a first five innings approach given how unfamiliar Chicago hitters are with a new face in the division. The marquee slate wraps with Randy Vasquez and the Padres visiting Eduardo Rodriguez and a red hot Diamondbacks club, where sharp money on San Diego catches Uncle Dave's attention even as Munaf leans toward trusting Arizona's dominant home and road splits. Along the way the guys touch on the Pirates, Twins, Yankees, Rays and a Blue Jays team they both believe is quietly playing its way into relevance against a thin Houston rotation. The back half of the show pivots to football, where a full breakdown of the Green Bay Packers win total covers quarterback Jordan Love's up and down health history, lingering questions around Micah Parsons and Tucker Kraft on defense, and a rugged opening schedule that has both hosts leaning toward the under for the season. Before wrapping up, the guys share a promo code for fifty dollars off the rest of season MLB all access package, and close with best bets on the board, including a total in the Giants and Rangers game and a first five innings look between the Athletics and Reds. Whether you are following the MLB stretch run or getting an early jump on NFL win totals, this episode covers the full board with context, numbers, and a couple of strong opinions along the way.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Monday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler open the month of August by reacting to the biggest move of trade deadline day before working through a full Monday baseball card and unveiling their next NFL win total on the Houston Texans. At 00:00 Munaf sets the stage for a busy trade deadline session, and at 01:53 the pair discusses Tarik Skubal moving from the Detroit Tigers to the Los Angeles Dodgers, a trade that pushed Los Angeles' World Series odds from roughly plus 175 down to plus 150. At 02:39 they preview the Nationals hosting the Phillies, where Trevor Williams starts opposite Aaron Nola just after Philadelphia added Luis Arraez to play second base, with Dave leaning toward the Nationals team total over three and a half runs given Nola's bloated recent numbers and Munaf backing the same direction with a strong seasonal over trend for Washington. At 06:37 they turn to the Cardinals visiting the Yankees, where Michael McGreevy faces Cam Schlittler, with both hosts leaning toward the under given New York's heavy favorite price and Schlittler's strong road splits. At 09:48 they cover the Pirates at the Brewers, with Bubba Chandler opposing Brandon Sproat, both hosts landing on the Pittsburgh team total over given Sproat's control issues. At 13:13 they preview the Dodgers at the Cubs, Justin Wrobleski against Matthew Boyd, with Dave taking Chicago at plus money and Munaf citing a profitable trend fading teams on the road the day after Sunday night baseball. At 16:30 they break down the Padres at the Diamondbacks, Michael King against Brandon Pfaadt, with Dave siding with Arizona at a cheap price while Munaf prefers San Diego given King's strong history against this opponent. At 20:17 they run through quick hits on the Giants at the Rangers, the Blue Jays at the Astros with Shane Bieber and Cristian Javier, and the Rays at the Rockies with Ian Seymour and Michael Lorenzen, flagging Colorado's hot home scoring trend. At 23:07 the conversation shifts to football, where Munaf and Dave unveil the Houston Texans win total of nine and a half, discussing a defense built around Will Anderson Jr., Danielle Hunter, Derek Stingley Jr., Reed Blankenship, and the returning Jadeveon Clowney, along with questions about the offensive line protecting C.J. Stroud and the additions of David Montgomery and Woody Marks in the backfield, ultimately landing on the over. At 31:41 Munaf shares a promo code for Pregame.com, RBI50, good for fifty dollars off the Major League Baseball second half all access package through the World Series. The episode closes at 33:03 with best bets, Dave taking the Washington Nationals team total over three and a half runs and Munaf going with the Rays and Rockies first five innings over six, wrapping a trade deadline day that reshaped several rosters and a season-opening look at one of the league's most anticipated teams heading into the fall.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Monday. Trade deadline day arrives in the middle of a full Major League Baseball slate, and Griffin Warner spends this episode walking through every game on the board while the deadline itself keeps shifting the ground under several starting pitchers. He opens by noting that the Washington Nationals had already begun trading away pieces in the days before, a familiar pattern for a club that has repeatedly sold off talent once a playoff push stops looking realistic, and that the San Diego Padres spent the weekend as one of the league's biggest question marks, with starter Michael King's turn in the rotation pushed from Sunday to Monday amid persistent trade speculation. At 02:00 Griffin opens with the St. Louis Cardinals traveling to face the New York Yankees, where Michael McGreevy starts on the road opposite Cam Schlittler, New York opening as a minus 193 favorite with St. Louis getting plus 174 and the total sitting at seven and a half at even money in both directions. He questions whether McGreevy's soft contact approach can hold up in a small ballpark and leans to the under on the full game and the first five innings. At 03:17 the card shifts to Pittsburgh, where Pirates prospect Bubba Chandler starts on the road against a Milwaukee Brewers club still working with the return from trading ace Freddy Peralta, whose rights moved again to the Tampa Bay Rays on Sunday, and Griffin says the plus 125 underdog price on Chandler is not enough for him while he leans the total toward the over given his doubts about Pittsburgh's bullpen. At 04:02 he covers the Los Angeles Dodgers sending Justin Wrobleski to Chicago to face Matthew Boyd and the Cubs, liking the plus 116 home underdog price on Boyd given the travel the Dodgers faced after Sunday night baseball. At 04:48 he previews Logan Webb and the San Francisco Giants on the road against Cal Quantrill and the Texas Rangers in Arlington, saying he does not trust San Francisco as a minus 107 road favorite and would only get involved if the Giants were available as an underdog with plus money. At 05:49 he breaks down Shane Bieber and the Toronto Blue Jays traveling to face Cristian Javier and the Houston Astros, noting that Bieber himself could be traded before the deadline closes and calling the minus 129 price on Houston a little cheap given how well Javier has pitched out of the bullpen. At 06:19 he covers the Tampa Bay Rays sending Ian Seymour to Colorado to face Michael Lorenzen and the Rockies, expecting Colorado to score plenty while staying away from the over given his concerns about the Rays bullpen holding up its end. At 06:49 he closes the game breakdown with the Padres traveling to Arizona, where Brandon Pfaadt is a minus 110 favorite for the Diamondbacks, saying that price seems cheap and that he leans toward the over on the total and toward Arizona at home, especially if Michael King is unavailable to start for San Diego. At 08:06 Griffin directs listeners to Pregame.com and promo code HIT50 for fifty dollars off his Major League Baseball second half all access package, discounted from three hundred forty nine dollars to two hundred ninety nine dollars for the rest of the season through the World Series, noting the package has been up twenty four units during the current promotional window and has run north of thirty units at points this season. He wraps the episode at 09:07 with his best bet, acknowledging a loss last time out on Cleveland against Arizona before landing on Houston Astros minus 129 over the Toronto Blue Jays as the play he trusts most on a trade deadline day card shaped as much by roster uncertainty as by the numbers themselves.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Friday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler close out the month of July with a full Cash That Ticket breakdown of Friday's Major League Baseball card, delivered on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed, opening with an honest look at a rough month before diving into a slate loaded with division and wild card stakes. They start with Paul Skenes and the Pittsburgh Pirates visiting Hunter Greene and the Cincinnati Reds, leaning toward Pittsburgh's deeper bullpen in the first five innings, then turn to Andrew Painter and the Philadelphia Phillies against the Baltimore Orioles, where Painter's rough return from injury has both hosts circling the Orioles team total. Janson Junk and the Miami Marlins head to Citi Field to face a declining Freddy Peralta and the New York Mets, with both hosts leaning Miami in the first five innings as Peralta's trade rumors swirl. Foster Griffin gets the ball for Washington on the road against Bryce Elder and the Atlanta Braves, and the guys like Griffin's strong history against Atlanta even while admitting they do not trust the Nationals bullpen for a full nine. Nathan Eovaldi and the Texas Rangers visit a red hot Hunter Brown and the Houston Astros, a spot where Munaf backs the home favorite while Dave eyes value on the total given Houston's recent form. The night's headline game sends Ranger Suarez and the Boston Red Sox into Dodger Stadium against Eduardo Henrique and the Los Angeles Dodgers, with Shohei Ohtani back in the lineup and both hosts circling the Dodgers team total given the lineup's depth. Dave runs through a string of quicker takes covering the Milwaukee Brewers against the Los Angeles Angels, the Colorado Rockies against the Kansas City Royals, the Cleveland Guardians against the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Seattle Mariners against the Minnesota Twins, the Chicago White Sox against the Tampa Bay Rays, and the San Francisco Giants against the San Diego Padres, before the show pivots entirely into football. The back half of the episode breaks down the Denver Broncos' win total heading into a new season under Sean Payton and quarterback Bo Nix, covering a brutal opening schedule, an improved receiving corps after adding Jaylen Waddle alongside Evan Engram, and a defense led by Patrick Surtain that should again rank among the league's best, with both hosts leaning toward the over while flagging real questions about an unproven backfield. They close the football segment with a season long passing yards prop on Bo Nix before locking in their best bets of the show. Along the way Munaf shares a Pregame dot com promo code, RBI50, worth fifty dollars off the Major League Baseball second half all access package, dropping the price from 349 dollars down to 299 dollars and covering every card through the World Series, valid through August 10. Best bets on this episode include a run line play on the Athletics against the Detroit Tigers built around heavy reverse line movement, and a moneyline lean on the Houston Astros over the Rangers, as the guys wrap up July, take stock of a disappointing Tigers season derailed by injuries, and look ahead to a Monday show previewing the Houston Texans win total for the coming NFL season, closing out another detailed, deadline aware breakdown of a full slate of games, injury news, and win total value across baseball and football.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Friday. Griffin Warner breaks down a packed Friday, July 31 Major League Baseball card on this episode of What I Bet from the Straight Outta Vegas AM podcast network, arriving on a strong run of 6 and 2 in his last 8, 10 and 4 in his last 14, 12 and 5 in his last 17, and 15 and 7 in his last 22. He opens at Wrigley Field, where the Yankees and Will Warren face the Cubs and Shota Imanaga in an early matinee complicated by two exhausted bullpens after both clubs needed extra innings the night before, a combination he says points toward the over on a total of 9. From there he moves to Cincinnati, where Paul Skenes and the Pirates visit Hunter Greene and the Reds at 6:10 eastern, with Greene still finding his form off the injured list and Griffin leaning under on a total near 7 and a half. He covers Toronto's well rested trip to St. Louis, where Dylan Cease, fresh off a complete game shutout at Fenway Park, faces a hot Kyle Leahy and the Cardinals, still catching their breath after outfielder Lars Nootbaar misplayed a fly ball that let Chicago Cubs third baseman Alex Bregman score, with Griffin leaning under again. He works through the Marlins and Mets, where Janson Junk meets an impending trade candidate in Freddy Peralta, the White Sox and Rays, where a hot Erick Fedde draws real skepticism, the Diamondbacks and Guardians, where Griffin likes Cleveland's defense over Arizona's offense, and the Nationals and Braves, where he backs Washington's Foster Griffin as a live underdog despite bullpen concerns. He breaks down Texas and Houston, leaning toward Nathan Eovaldi and the Rangers over Hunter Brown and the Astros, the Royals and Rockies, where Michael Wacha gets strong praise after Kansas City's brutal walk off grand slam loss to Minnesota, the Brewers and Angels, where neither bullpen earns his trust, and a Tigers and Athletics matchup thrown into question after Detroit scratched trade candidate Casey Mize from his start and opted for a bullpen game instead, with ace Tarik Skubal still expected to be dealt before the deadline. He closes the card with Minnesota's Zebby Matthews on the road against Bryce Miller and the Mariners, leaning under on a low scoring night in Seattle. Along the way Griffin shares a Pregame.com promo code, HIT50, good for fifty dollars off his Major League Baseball second half all access package covering every card through the World Series, good through August 10, and notes he is up 23.92 units on the season with a chance to cross 30 units soon. He wraps the episode with his top play of the night, siding with a slight home favorite in the Cleveland Guardians and Tanner Bibee at minus 132, capping off another sharp, detail heavy breakdown of a full slate of games, injury returns, bullpen fatigue, and trade deadline maneuvering across the league heading into the first weekend of August.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Thursday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler close out July with a full slate of MLB betting breakdowns and the next installment of their NFL win total tour on Cash That Ticket, part of the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed. The show opens with a look back at a winning stretch, including an Astros team total that cashed even though the offense attacked the bullpen rather than the starter as expected, and Essler reports a 3 and 1 day for clients despite his own best bet falling short. Manji shares updated season figures showing a July best bets record of 11 and 11 for negative 2.55 units, with the podcast sitting at roughly plus 13.1 units year to date, before venting about a three star best bet on the Phillies run line that fell apart when a six run lead evaporated in an eventual loss to the Marlins. From there the hosts dig into five matchups on the day's card. Eury Pérez and the Miami Marlins face Nolan McLean and the New York Mets, with the offense's struggles without an injured Juan Soto pushing both hosts toward a first five under look. Yohan Ramírez and a bullpen day for the Pittsburgh Pirates opposite Rhett Lowder and the Cincinnati Reds bring a strong lean toward the Pittsburgh team total over, powered by a shaky Cincinnati bullpen and a small home ballpark. Jake Irvin's return from a lengthy injured list stint for the Washington Nationals against Grant Holmes and the Atlanta Braves points both hosts toward the Washington team total over, backed by the Nationals' strong road numbers this season. JP Sears and the San Diego Padres draw a favorable matchup against Robbie Ray and the San Francisco Giants, with Ray's steep home and road split pushing the market and both hosts toward San Diego. A quick look at the Seattle Mariners and Los Angeles Dodgers highlights Bryan Woo's extreme home and road splits, while the Boston Red Sox and Athletics get a brief mention after a frustrating result the night before. The back half of the show pivots to the NFL, with the Los Angeles Chargers carrying a nine and a half win total into the 2026 season after an 11 and 6 finish and a wild card playoff berth under head coach Jim Harbaugh. Essler and Manji cover the hire of offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, the encouraging return to practice for tackles Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt, the addition of first round pick Akheem Mesidor to the defense, and a demanding travel schedule that includes trips to Buffalo, Seattle, Kansas City, Baltimore twice, and a late season stretch through Tampa Bay and Miami. Essler leans toward the over while acknowledging the Chargers could finish closer to 9 and 8, and Manji takes the under, citing the travel load and the adjustment period ahead for quarterback Justin Herbert in a new offensive system, along with questions about receiver Ladd McConkey's role and the development of running back Omarion Hampton. The show wraps with the daily best bets, Essler siding with the Pittsburgh Pirates team total over four and a half and Manji backing the Washington Nationals team total over four and a half, before a reminder to use promo code RBI50 at pregame.com for fifty dollars off second half MLB season access and a preview of Friday's episode covering the Denver Broncos win total with quarterback Bo Nix and head coach Sean Payton.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Thursday. Griffin Warner opens the show with a look back at a hot recent run before diving into a packed ten game Major League Baseball slate for Thursday, working from the early window through the night's final first pitch in Los Angeles. He starts with the Texas Rangers visiting the Tampa Bay Rays at 12:10 Eastern, where Cole Winn faces one of the game's most dominant arms in Shane McClanahan, and explains why he still finds value on a Tampa Bay team built to win at home even with a slightly bigger price than he would like. From there he moves to the Kansas City Royals at the Minnesota Twins, detailing how injuries to Bobby Witt Jr. and Vinnie Pasquantino have shaped his lean to the under, while questioning whether Bailey Ober can keep missing bats with modest velocity for his size. He covers the New York Yankees trip to face the Chicago White Sox and Sean Burke, pointing to sloppy recent losses and a red hot closer in David Bednar as reasons Chicago has yet to earn his trust as a home underdog. The Chicago Cubs and St. Louis Cardinals get a full breakdown next, with Warner favoring Chicago's defense and approach over a Cardinals club he believes has overachieved and is due for a correction, even with Andre Pallante pitching well lately. He previews the Miami Marlins traveling to face the New York Mets, weighing a fresh Juan Soto injury and a taxing doubleheader against a Miami team trying to snap a long losing streak behind a talented young arm. The Pittsburgh Pirates at the Cincinnati Reds gets attention for a disrespected home underdog price and a hitter friendly ballpark that shapes his total lean, and the Washington Nationals at the Atlanta Braves becomes his headline play of the night, with Jake Irvin returning from injury and a shaky Washington bullpen pushing him firmly toward the over. He closes the game by game breakdown with the Seattle Mariners visiting the Los Angeles Dodgers, explaining why a difficult home run park and a pitcher who has struggled on the road push him toward a total that most books have set too low. Along the way Warner shares his season long track record, sitting comfortably in the green and chasing a higher unit total before the World Series, and details how listeners can save fifty dollars on his Major League Baseball Second Half All Access package using a promo code good for a limited time. The episode wraps with his single best bet of the day, a total play built around a Washington offense he expects to produce plenty of runs against an Atlanta pitching staff and bullpen he does not fully trust, closing out another edition of his daily baseball betting breakdown with the same discipline and record keeping that has defined his recent stretch of results.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Wednesday. On episode 73 of What I Bet, Griffin Warner runs through the entire July 29 Major League Baseball card before landing on his best bet of the night, opening with a check on his previous pick, Detroit on the money line at minus 130, while noting his recent form of four and two over his last six selections, eight and four over his last twelve, ten and five over his last fifteen, and thirteen and seven over his last twenty. He works methodically through the slate, starting with Jesus Luzardo and the Phillies visiting Ryan Gusto and a Marlins club fresh off a stunning comeback win, then moves into a genuine Wild Card scrap between Eduardo Rodriguez and the Diamondbacks and Jared Jones and the Pirates, a Blue Jays trip to face Zack Littell and the Nationals, and the opener of a Braves Mets doubleheader featuring AJ Smith-Shawver's return from elbow surgery against Sean Manaea. Warner covers Trevor Rogers and the Orioles taking on a Tigers club leaning on Tarik Skubal, a low scoring look at Shane Drohan and the Brewers against Logan Webb and the Giants, a Rangers trip to face a Rays bullpen game fronted by Casey Legumina, and Joey Cantillo pitching for the Guardians against a surging Cincinnati offense behind Brady Singer. He previews the Braves Mets doubleheader nightcap between Chris Sale and Christian Scott, a Yankees White Sox matchup pitting Cam Schlittler against Davis Martin, a Royals Twins game with Randy Dobnak on the mound for Kansas City, Matthew Boyd and the Cubs visiting Dustin May and the Cardinals, Hayden Wesneski's 2026 debut for Houston against Grayson Rodriguez and the Angels, Patrick Sandoval and the Red Sox against Jacob Lopez and the Athletics, and closes the card with a marquee matchup between Emerson Hancock and the Mariners against Eric Lauer and the Dodgers. Throughout, Warner breaks down current moneylines, run totals, and juice on both sides, weighs bullpen strength and recent form, and flags which underdogs he believes are priced fairly and which are not. He shares a Pregame.com promotional code, HIT50, that saves fifty dollars on his Major League Baseball second half all access package covering every pick through the World Series, bringing the regular 349 dollar price down to 299 dollars through August 10, while noting he is plus 23.92 MLB units on the season with a goal of doubling that total. Warner closes the show with his official best bet for the episode, the under seven and a half runs in game two of the Braves Mets doubleheader, built around Chris Sale on the mound for Atlanta against Christian Scott for New York, explaining that he leans toward the under nearly every time Sale pitches and does not fully trust a recent Mets offensive uptick against a true ace working on a turnaround between games. It is a comprehensive, game by game breakdown of a packed Wednesday slate from one of the more consistent voices in the sports betting podcast space, capping a stretch in which Warner has gone thirteen and seven over his last twenty selections while building toward a season long goal of forty units won.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Wednesday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler open the Wednesday, July 29 edition of Cash That Ticket by celebrating a winning start to the week, a one and zero best bet outing thanks to Essler's Brewers cashing convincingly, before diving into a full slate of afternoon and evening baseball. The two work through Guardians at Reds first, questioning why Cleveland starter Joey Cantillo is priced as such a heavy favorite given a pair of rough outings since the All Star break, and land on the Reds team total over along with a first five innings lean given how hitter friendly the ballpark tends to play. From there they move to Yankees at White Sox, where Cam Schlittlers wild variance this season gets weighed against strong road splits, an eight and two record and a sub two ERA away from home, pushing both hosts toward New York in the first five innings. The Cubs and Cardinals get a long look next, with Matthew Boyd's recent form squared off against a Dustin May start that has both hosts unsure which version of the right hander will show up, ultimately settling on a first five innings under given two bullpens that could swing either way. The night's headline matchup, Astros at Angels, brings out the strongest conviction of the show, with both hosts pounding Houston in the first five innings and on the team total over against a Los Angeles starter who has been hit hard in four of his last five outings and carries a home ERA over ten. Healthy again, Astros slugger Yordan Alvarez comes up repeatedly throughout the show as the engine behind Houston's offense, with both hosts hoping the rest of the lineup can find its footing around him. A quick tour of the remaining card touches on Detroit ace Tarik Skubal possibly making his final start before a trade, a Rangers and Rays first five lean, a pass on a heavily priced Royals and Twins game, a small ballpark total lean in Boston, and a Dodgers first five pick on the run line against Seattle with the wind blowing out in Los Angeles. The back half of the show pivots to football, continuing an ongoing win total series with a detailed breakdown of the Chicago Bears at nine and a half wins heading into year two under head coach Ben Johnson. One host leans toward the over, pointing to quarterback development, returning continuity on offense, and a schedule that could open favorably, while the other leans toward the under, citing a demanding road slate, a receiver room thinned by an offseason trade, and a tougher overall conference gauntlet. Both agree to revisit the number several weeks into the season once more information is available. The show wraps with best bets for the night, one host riding a Cardinals first five pick behind Dustin May, the other sticking with the Astros team total over against a struggling Angels starter, plus a reminder to check out the sponsor offer for MLB coverage running through the World Series. The two close with a look ahead to Thursday's episode, which turns the win total series toward the Los Angeles Chargers and their quarterback, along with a story about the surprising number of loyal fans who once traveled to a freezing January road game to support their team.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Tuesday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler reunite on Cash That Ticket for a full breakdown of the Tuesday, July 28 major league baseball card, opening with a look back at Monday's near miss on the Washington Nationals team total tied to Max Scherzer's return from the injured list, a bet that looked live after the Nationals loaded the bases in the first inning before stranding the chance. From there the hosts move through an early Guardians and Reds doubleheader before turning to the night's headline matchups, starting with the Philadelphia Phillies and Miami Marlins, where neither host wants any part of Aaron Nola after a season of allowing home runs at an alarming rate, leaning instead toward Sandy Alcantara and Miami in the first five innings or the game total after the Marlins snapped a rough stretch with a walk off comeback win. The Arizona Diamondbacks and Pittsburgh Pirates follow, with Brandon Pfaadt and Bubba Chandler both expected to work deep after heavy bullpen usage in Monday's extra innings finish, pushing both hosts toward the first five under. The day's featured play comes from Citi Field, where Chris Sale and the Atlanta Braves visit a New York Mets club already missing Juan Soto for four to six weeks, and both hosts argue Christian Scott is being undervalued in a heavily juiced line, settling on the first five under four as Munaf Manji's best bet of the show. Attention then shifts to the Bronx, where Cody Bellinger joining Aaron Judge on the injured list adds another dent to a Yankees lineup that has produced little run support for Gerrit Cole in his last three starts, sending both hosts toward Anthony Kay and the Chicago White Sox in the first five innings. The Chicago Cubs and St Louis Cardinals bring a rare moment of full agreement on the Cardinals team total over, powered by Colin Rea's steep home and road split and Michael McGreevy's strong numbers pitching at home despite a lack of run support. Out west, Peter Lambert and the Houston Astros face Reid Detmers and the Los Angeles Angels, with both hosts landing on the first five under behind two of the more underrated arms in the game, before the conversation turns to Houston's trade deadline outlook, touching on rookie right hander Tatsuya Imai's surprising climb into Rookie of the Year odds and speculation linking shortstop Jeremy Pena to the Boston Red Sox. Dave Essler closes the card with his own best bet, backing Logan Henderson and the Milwaukee Brewers in the first five innings against the San Francisco Giants, while also weighing a Boston Red Sox team total over against the Athletics in hot weather and a Minnesota Twins team total lean against the Kansas City Royals. Munaf Manji wraps the card with a Colorado Rockies and San Diego Padres total play and a note on the Seattle Mariners and Los Angeles Dodgers series, where the presumed Dodgers starter never actually got confirmed. The two close the show by previewing football season, noting all 32 NFL teams have reported to training camp with the Hall of Fame Game and the start of the show's NFL win total series, beginning Wednesday with the Chicago Bears, both on the horizon, and remind listeners that Pregame dot com is offering full season access to every college football and NFL pick through the Super Bowl using the promo code Super777 for 777 dollars. Cash That Ticket airs daily on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed, delivering sharp, betting focused analysis for listeners looking to navigate a busy midsummer baseball schedule while the sports calendar begins its turn toward football, and this episode offers a complete look at every marquee pitching matchup, injury development, and trade deadline storyline shaping Tuesday's slate across the major leagues.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Tuesday. Griffin Warner runs the entire Tuesday, July 28 Major League Baseball card on What I Bet, building his own numbers before diving into a sixteen-game slate that opens with a Battle of Ohio doubleheader and closes on the West Coast. He starts with a quick note on recent form, four wins in the last five, eight and three in the last eleven, ten and four in the last fourteen, and thirteen and six in the last nineteen, before working through the board game by game. Slade Cecconi and the Guardians open against Chase Burns and the Reds in Game 1 of a doubleheader created by a postponed opener, and Griffin says he would rather see Gavin Williams on the mound for Cleveland while still liking the under. Brandon Pfaadt and Arizona travel to face Bubba Chandler and the Pirates, with Griffin siding with a cheap Diamondbacks price against a team he thinks has the better roster. Aaron Nola and the Phillies visit Sandy Alcantara and a reeling Marlins club, and Griffin explains why he still does not trust Nola despite Miami's twelve game skid, pointing to Philadelphia letting Ranger Suarez leave as a longer term concern. Cal Quantrill and the Rangers face Griffin Jax and the Rays in a game Griffin mostly avoids given Tampa Bay's strength at limiting runs at home. The clearest opinion of the show comes on Dean Kremer and the Orioles visiting Troy Melton and the Tigers, where Griffin argues Detroit is undervalued and Kremer keeps earning more market respect than he deserves, referencing a rough recent start against Houston. Shane Bieber and the Blue Jays face Cade Cavalli and a shaky Washington bullpen, Chris Sale and the Braves visit Christian Scott and the Mets with Griffin leaning the under, and Game 2 of the doubleheader brings Brady Singer against Gavin Williams and the Guardians in a spot Griffin mostly passes on. Gerrit Cole and the Yankees travel to face Anthony Kay and a struggling White Sox team, Seth Lugo and the Royals face Taj Bradley and a Minnesota bullpen that has quietly turned into a strength, and Griffin leans hard to the under there. Colin Rea and the Cubs visit Michael McGreevy and the Cardinals, with Griffin backing St. Louis over a Chicago staff propped up by its defense. Peter Lambert and the Astros face Reid Detmers and the Angels, and Griffin explains why he believes in Lambert and why Jeremy Pena might be the hottest hitter he has watched all year. Michael Lorenzen and the Rockies visit Michael King and the Padres, Jake Bennett and the Red Sox travel to face Gage Jump and the Athletics in Sacramento, and Logan Henderson and the Brewers face Landen Roupp and the Giants in a matchup Griffin likes on pitching alone. The card wraps with Luis Castillo and the Mariners facing Eric Lauer and the Dodgers, a spot Griffin leans over if the total drops. He closes the episode with his single What I Bet best bet of the night, the Detroit Tigers minus 130 at home over the Baltimore Orioles, built on confidence in Troy Melton and skepticism of Dean Kremer's price. Along the way he points listeners to a promo code worth ninety eight dollars in savings on football season access packages running all the way through the Super Bowl, starting with the Hall of Fame Game on August 6.

Munaf Manji talks betting for Monday. A new week of baseball betting opens with a full breakdown of the Monday MLB card, starting with a look back at a tough finish to last week when a Diamondbacks team total fell one run short, and rolling into a heavy dose of Sunday scoring across the league that set up several of Monday's angles, including a detailed look at how teams coming off Sunday Night Baseball perform in their next game on the road, a trend that has favored the over at a rate above seventy percent across multiple seasons and puts a red hot Phillies offense in a fascinating spot against a Miami Marlins team that has dropped twelve straight games, with Zach Wheeler's dominant season and long track record against Miami weighed against Tyler Phillips and his much stronger home numbers, landing on a total rather than a side. From there the card moves to Pittsburgh, where a shaky Merrill Kelly has quietly turned things around over his last four outings while Mitch Keller continues to struggle at home and at night, pointing toward a first five innings total with an eye on rain chances around first pitch. The headline matchup of the day sends Max Scherzer back to the mound for Toronto after more than a month and a half on the injured list, and his rough underlying numbers this season, paired with a well worn trend of fading pitchers fresh off the injured list and a Washington offense that just put up double digit runs, form the basis of the day's featured best bet on the Nationals team total. Atlanta and New York also get a full look, with Ronald Acuna Jr still working back from a leg issue and Juan Soto sidelined for a month or more, while Mets starter Zach Thornton has quietly turned in one of the best individual seasons in the rotation despite getting almost no run support, setting up a first five innings lean toward New York. Out west, Houston and the Angels both trot out starters who have battled control issues all year, suggesting a game that could be decided by which lineup stays patient and draws walks rather than which arm dominates, with a lean toward the total and a slight preference for the home side. A quick tour through the rest of the schedule touches on a heavy favorite in Cincinnati, the Yankees rolling into Chicago as a big favorite, and matchups on the west coast rounding out the night, before closing with a reminder about a football season ticket package covering every pick through the Super Bowl and National Championship for a flat price using a promo code. The episode wraps with the day's single best bet, a team total angle built on a struggling former ace returning from injury and an offense trending in the right direction, delivered in the same straightforward, numbers first style that runs through the rest of the breakdown, mixing pitcher splits, home and road trends, and situational betting angles into one complete rundown of everything worth knowing before locking in a Monday ticket.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Monday. Griffin Warner runs through the full July 27 Major League Baseball card on this episode of What I Bet, part of the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed on Pregame.com, arriving with a betting record of 4 and 1 in his last 5, 8 and 3 in his last 11, 10 and 4 in his last 14, and 13 and 6 in his last 19, even after a tough Friday loss on the Pittsburgh Pirates and Chicago Cubs game that unraveled in extra innings once Pittsburgh's bullpen got exposed. He opens by flagging the first trade of deadline season, the Boston Red Sox sending a young pitching prospect out for a veteran infielder just days after the club tied a franchise record with a 15 game winning streak, one of the longest runs in team history. From there Griffin works through all 11 games on Monday's slate, starting with an early afternoon window between the Seattle Mariners and Texas Rangers that got pushed up because of World Cup activity around the ballpark complex in the Dallas area. Seattle enters off a dramatic comeback win Sunday behind a go ahead three run homer from Dominic Canzone, and Griffin questions how Texas has been using its bullpen arms in high leverage spots. He breaks down George Kirby against Kumar Rocker, the movement on Seattle's price, and why the Rangers as home underdogs along with the game total look like the most interesting angles. Next comes a deep look at Philadelphia hosting Miami, with Zach Wheeler opposing Tyler Phillips, Griffin's long standing trust in Wheeler, and the fallout from a physical Yankees series that left New York banged up heading into the week. He touches on Philadelphia's aging roster, its fifth starter search, and lands on the under as his preferred angle. The show continues through Arizona visiting Pittsburgh with Merrill Kelly on the mound, Baltimore traveling to Detroit still shaking off a gutting extra inning loss to Atlanta, Max Scherzer returning from injury to face his former club in Washington, the Mets hosting Atlanta with a rookie chasing his second win, a Battle of Ohio matchup between Cleveland and Cincinnati, the Yankees visiting a surprising White Sox club atop the American League Central, Houston visiting the Angels, Boston traveling to face an Athletics team getting a key bat back from injury, and Milwaukee closing the card in San Francisco. Along the way Griffin shares live odds movement, first five inning numbers, bullpen availability notes, and the reasoning behind each lean, all delivered in his usual direct, conversational style. He wraps the card breakdown with a rundown of the current Pregame.com promo code before delivering his official What I Bet best bet of the day, a lean built around trusting a proven arm even at a reduced number. Whether you are tracking totals, first five inning props, or straight sides, this episode covers the entire Monday board in one sitting, with the kind of matchup context and injury notes that shape sharp, informed betting decisions across a full slate of Major League Baseball action.

Munaf Manji talks betting for Friday. Munaf Manji hosts this Friday, July 24, 2026 edition of Cash That Ticket solo once again, with his usual co host away handling a personal matter and expected back for Monday's show. He opens by recapping a winning Thursday built around a light five game slate, highlighted by the Detroit Tigers covering the first five innings run line against the Kansas City Royals before rallying to an eight to three win overall. From there he shifts into the bigger picture around the league as the trade deadline approaches, walking through persistent rumors that Tigers ace Tarik Skubal could become available, with the Los Angeles Dodgers viewed as the most aggressive suitor and the Milwaukee Brewers floated as a dark horse fit alongside young starter Jacob Misiorowski. He runs through the American League standings, noting the Detroit Tigers sitting at fifty four and forty nine through one hundred three games yet only six games back in a bunched AL Central, drawing a comparison to the Cleveland Guardians historic comeback from a season ago. He also covers a wide open AL West with no team above five hundred, along with a National League picture that shows more separation, led by an Atlanta Braves club four and a half games clear of the Philadelphia Phillies and a Los Angeles Dodgers team eleven games ahead in the NL West with the league's best run differential. With the landscape set, Munaf works through six matchups from Friday's ten game card. He starts with the Chicago Cubs at the Pittsburgh Pirates, weighing Matthew Boyd's rough road history against Pittsburgh against Jared Jones's improving recent form, and lands on the Pirates in the first five innings. He then breaks down the New York Yankees at the Philadelphia Phillies, pointing to Cam Schlittler's dominant road splits against Jesus Luzardo's home struggles at Citizens Bank Park, backing New York on the money line. He turns to the Arizona Diamondbacks hosting the Washington Nationals, highlighting Eduardo Rodriguez's consistent season and Washington's poor recent history in home series openers, which sets up his best bet of the night on the Diamondbacks team total. He covers the Atlanta Braves opening a series at the Baltimore Orioles, calling it the toughest read of the card and leaning toward the under. He previews the Los Angeles Dodgers visiting the New York Mets, targeting the Dodgers team total given Roki Sasaki's home run troubles and a Mets offense that has gone quiet lately. He closes matchup coverage with the Seattle Mariners at the Texas Rangers, siding with the home underdog Rangers behind Mackenzie Gore's strong home splits against Bryce Miller's poor career history in Texas. Throughout the show, Munaf references weather conditions at each ballpark and how tightly the betting board has moved compared to earlier in the season, when heavy favorites were far more common across the schedule. He wraps the show by naming the Arizona Diamondbacks team total over four and a half his best bet of the day, built on Washington's tendency to allow runs in series openers at home, and thanks listeners for sticking with him through a second straight week without his co host, promising more baseball and football coverage in the days ahead as the weekend series get underway around the league.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Friday. Griffin Warner brings a full fourteen game Major League Baseball slate to episode 70 of What I Bet on the Straight Outta Vegas AM podcast feed, arriving with a hot hand at three wins in his last three, seven wins in his last nine, nine wins in his last twelve, and twelve wins in his last seventeen, and he spends the Friday, July 24 show walking through every number on the board before locking in his best bet of the night. He opens with an early 4:10 p.m. Eastern first pitch between the Colorado Rockies and Milwaukee Brewers, explaining at 01:31 why Colorado's inflated home numbers make them nearly unplayable even at a plus price on the road. From there he turns at 02:16 to the matchup that becomes his headline lean, Matthew Boyd and the Chicago Cubs visiting Jared Jones and the Pittsburgh Pirates, fading Boyd after a swing and miss free final start against the Twins and backing Pittsburgh's price against a nationally popular opponent. At 03:02 he breaks down how the loss of Bobby Witt Jr. and uncertainty around Jac Caglianone push him toward the under as the Kansas City Royals visit Tarik Skubal and the Detroit Tigers, then at 03:48 previews a potential shootout between Eduardo Rodriguez and the Arizona Diamondbacks against Connor Palmquist and the Washington Nationals, two travel worn clubs he expects to hit more than pitch. At 04:34 he explains why he does not trust Will Warren against Jesús Luzardo and the Philadelphia Phillies even with an underachieving Phillies lineup, and at 05:05 walks through why he leans toward the Atlanta Braves over Trevor Rogers and the Baltimore Orioles despite Rogers producing results that the market still will not fully believe. One of the most detailed segments arrives at 05:50, where Griffin analyzes Roki Sasaki's triple digit velocity without matching swing and miss numbers as the Los Angeles Dodgers visit Sean Manaea and a New York Mets team still unraveling after a defensive miscue in right field turned a sure win into a season altering loss, a sequence he ties directly to his under position on New York's adjusted second half win total. From 07:22 through 11:55 he moves through the rest of the card, leaning under with Joey Cantillo and the Cleveland Guardians against Shane McClanahan and the Tampa Bay Rays, questioning whether Patrick Sandoval can be trusted post elbow reconstruction as the Toronto Blue Jays visit a red hot Boston Red Sox club, passing on Houston's Spencer Arrighetti and Chicago's Davis Martin until the price on Yordan Alvarez and the Astros gets cheaper, fading Mackenzie Gore's well known second half decline as the Seattle Mariners visit the Texas Rangers, fully fading the Athletics' pitching and offense as they travel overnight to face the Minnesota Twins, leaning under on a Cincinnati Reds and St. Louis Cardinals pitching duel between Rhett Lowder and Dustin May, and choosing patience over a play on the Los Angeles Angels and San Francisco Giants total while it sits above his number. The episode closes at 13:42 with Griffin's official What I Bet best bet, the Pittsburgh Pirates at home, minus 120, over the Chicago Cubs, extending his run heading into the next installment of the show and giving listeners a complete first look at a full slate of numbers built game by game across nearly two hours of Major League Baseball action.

Munaf Manji talks betting for Thursday. Munaf Manji hosts a solo Thursday edition of Cash That Ticket on the Straight Out of Vegas AM feed, opening by cashing in on Wednesday's best bet, the Los Angeles Dodgers moneyline behind Eric Lauer against Aaron Nola, a game that saw Lauer allow a first inning two run homer to Alec Bohm before the Dodgers rallied for a 9 to 5 win, punctuated by a Max Muncy homer and a four run eighth inning, with the Dodgers team total over four and a half cashing alongside it. With only five games on the Thursday slate, Manji narrows his focus to three matchups starting after 3pm Eastern. At the 3:33 mark he opens with the Tampa Bay Rays visiting the Toronto Blue Jays in a series finale Toronto enters having been outscored 23 to 5, breaking down Rays starter Ian Seymour, a pitcher who has allowed a home run in every start he has made in July, against Blue Jays starter Shane Bieber, whose command issues, a 1.73 WHIP over the season, outweigh a recent six shutout inning outing against the Chicago White Sox, landing on the Rays team total over four and a half as the preferred angle. At 8:28 the show shifts to the Arizona Diamondbacks at the St. Louis Cardinals, where Brandon Pfaadt and Michael McGreevy have both settled into strong recent form, Pfaadt winning each of his last four starts and McGreevy allowing no more than two earned runs in any of his last four outings, with wind blowing in at St. Louis pushing Manji toward the first five innings under four. At 12:51 the final matchup covered sends the Kansas City Royals to Detroit, where Troy Melton, sitting at 5 and 1 with a 1.80 ERA, draws Randy Dobnak, a reliever making a spot start for a Royals team that has struggled badly away from home this season, a combination that leads Manji to name the Detroit Tigers first five innings run line as his best bet of the show. From there the podcast pivots into a National Football League win total breakdown of the Cincinnati Bengals, part of a season long wager preview presented alongside Pregame dot com. Manji frames Zac Taylor as the only returning head coach in the AFC North, recaps a 6 and 11 finish a year ago, and credits an offseason overhaul on defense, including the additions of Dexter Lawrence and Jonathan Allen up front and Jordan Battle, Bryan Cook, and DJ Turner in the secondary, before turning to the health of quarterback Joe Burrow, who played only eight games last season, as the swing factor for a Bengals team that also retains Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Chase Brown on offense. He walks through a favorable opening schedule stretch, the team's 2026 draft class led by edge rusher Cashius Howell, and division and playoff odds before landing on the over on a win total of nine and a half games, also flagging long odds on the Bengals to earn the AFC's number one seed. The episode closes with a recap of the Tigers first five innings run line as the best bet of the show and a preview of a full weekend slate returning Friday, with regular co-host Uncle Dave expected back in the chair on Monday to weigh in on the Bengals outlook himself.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Thursday. Griffin Warner returns for episode 69 of What I Bet with a full breakdown of the Thursday, July 23rd Major League Baseball card, working through five games, sharp line movement, and a final best bet before first pitch. He opens by checking in on a hot recent stretch of picks, sitting at 6 and 2 in the last 8, 8 and 3 in the last 11, and 11 and 5 in the last 16, fueled in part by Kansas City's dramatic comeback sweep of the San Francisco Giants earlier in the week. From there, at 1 46, Griffin turns to San Diego at Atlanta, where Griffin Canning faces Chris Sale in an early getaway day start, and he tracks San Diego drifting from around plus 193 out to plus 204 while the total sits at 8 and leans toward the under. He explains why a thin Padres offense paired with a strong bullpen makes the run line at plus 1 and a half more appealing than the total, touches on trade chatter involving Mason Miller, and references Xander Bogaerts hitting eighth in Monday's lineup as a sign of how limited San Diego's lineup currently is. At 4 33, the show shifts to Minnesota at Cleveland, where the Guardians moved from around minus 117 to as high as minus 144 after Jose Ramirez returned and Byron Buxton and Ryan Jeffers were given rest, and Griffin lays out why the under, both in the full game at 8 and in the first five innings at 4 and a half, is his favorite angle on the board given a rested Minnesota bullpen and a Cleveland lineup that isn't built to hit the ball out of the park in bunches. At 7 05, he previews Tampa Bay at Toronto, questioning whether Shane Bieber is really back to form after a serious arm injury even as the price on the Rays creeps from minus 103 toward minus 101, and he says he still views Tampa Bay as the better team even with its road struggles. At 8 37, Griffin covers a rescheduled game between Arizona and St. Louis, with Brandon Pfaadt starting for the Diamondbacks against Michael McGreevy, walking through Arizona's price moving from plus 113 to plus 107, McGreevy shortening toward minus 118, and a total that ticked up to 8 and a half, while explaining why he loves Arizona's offense but worries about a shaky bullpen and questions whether McGreevy's below average velocity can keep producing results. At 10 24, he closes the card with Kansas City at Detroit, where Randy Dobnak starts opposite a red hot Troy Melton, now a minus 193 favorite, and Griffin details a rough stretch for the Royals, who are missing Bobby Witt Jr. and top prospect Jac Caglianone after a rough defensive sequence in Wednesday's finale, while Salvador Perez keeps hitting home runs against the run of form. He leans toward the Royals' team total under given Melton's dominant season, though he flags Detroit's left handed power as a wild card. Griffin wraps the show by running through a pregame.com promo code, spelled out letter by letter as early 777, that saves 98 dollars on season long access to NFL and college football coverage beginning with the Hall of Fame Game on August 6th and running through the Super Bowl. He finishes with his official best bet of the day, the under in the Minnesota at Cleveland game, tying together the pitching matchups, bullpen usage, and early start context covered throughout the episode, and signs off by teasing a return the following night for Friday's full slate of games and more betting analysis from around the league.

Munaf Manji talks betting for Wednesday. Munaf Manji opens Wednesday, July 22 by revisiting Tuesday's winning best bet, the Phillies and Dodgers going under nine runs in a game Los Angeles closed out 2 to 1 after catcher J.T. Realmuto's late base running mistake turned into a game ending double play. He also reviews a client play that missed, an over in the Marlins and Astros game that finished 5 to 3 after Jose Altuve grounded into a triple play in the bottom of the eighth and Josh Hader closed the door for Houston. Working solo again this week while his usual co host continues to handle a personal matter, Manji says there is no rush on a return and he hopes to have company back on the show soon. He runs through a busy day of baseball ahead of the night card, including doubleheaders for the Pirates and Yankees and the Orioles and Red Sox, along with afternoon games for the Mets and Brewers, the Giants and Royals, and the Nationals and Rockies. From there he breaks down six evening matchups in detail. He opens with a rematch between the Dodgers and Phillies, Eric Lauer against Aaron Nola, pricing the Dodgers at minus 120 on the money line against a Phillies club that is a home underdog at even money, with the total at nine and a half. He walks through Lauer's turnaround since coming over from the Toronto Blue Jays, his strong recent form, and his positive history against Philadelphia, then contrasts that with Nola, who is 3 and 7 with a 5.68 ERA at home and has been especially poor at Citizens Bank Park this season. He moves next to the Twins visiting the Guardians, Bailey Ober against Slade Cecconi, in a game with the Guardians favored at home in a tight American League Central race, and lands on shopping the total rather than picking a side. He touches briefly on the Pirates and Yankees doubleheader and Max Fried's return from the injured list before turning to the Padres and Braves, Michael King against Martin Perez, where he leans on Atlanta's strong history bouncing back at home after a loss and warm, wind aided conditions to favor the total staying over. At Wrigley Field he backs the Tigers as plus money underdogs against the Cubs, Keider Montero against Colin Rea, pointing to Detroit's bullpen game the night before and calmer wind conditions as reasons to expect fewer runs after a lopsided Cubs win. He closes the card with the Marlins trying to avoid a series sweep in Houston against the Astros, Sandy Alcantara against Peter Lambert, siding firmly with Houston given Miami's struggles on the road and its recent history trying to avoid sweeps away from home. He also notes the White Sox and Rangers as one of the night's other games. For his single best bet of the day, Manji returns to the Dodgers on the money line against the Phillies and Nola for the second straight afternoon, saying he has a strong read on this series. He wraps the show by previewing a much lighter Thursday schedule of just five games, most starting early, and says he may take the day off from the podcast or pivot toward football and basketball content with the NFL season approaching. He thanks listeners for sticking with him during his co host's time away and points to the current promo code available for football season picks packages good through the Hall of Fame Game in early August.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Wednesday. Griffin Warner opens the latest What I Bet episode from the Straight Out of Vegas AM feed by circling back to an unresolved Kansas City Royals play from Tuesday, July 21, still awaiting a final grade, before turning to a Wednesday, July 22 Major League Baseball card thickened by multiple doubleheaders. He works the slate start to finish, beginning with Mitch Keller and the Pittsburgh Pirates on the road against Gerrit Cole and the New York Yankees, where he says he is not looking to fade Cole even with a live Pittsburgh bat behind him. He moves to Dean Kremer and the Baltimore Orioles visiting a red hot Boston Red Sox club that has won 14 straight, then to Christian Scott and a New York Mets team he thinks looks more like a contender than expected against an injury riddled Logan Henderson in Milwaukee. He covers Landen Roupp and the San Francisco Giants at Kansas City against Seth Lugo, trusting neither bullpen, Cade Cavalli and the Washington Nationals in Colorado, where he backs an over that dropped from 13 runs to eleven and a half, and Merrill Kelly and the Arizona Diamondbacks at home against an Athletics club he wants to fade, a matchup that becomes his marquee selection later in the show. He runs through Brady Singer and the Cincinnati Reds in Seattle against Emerson Hancock, the St. Louis Cardinals against a dependable Reid Detmers and the Los Angeles Angels, and then pivots into the night slate with Eric Lauer and the Los Angeles Dodgers visiting Aaron Nola and the Philadelphia Phillies, where heavy money pushed the line toward even money before rain moved through the East Coast and Warner named the over his biggest interest of the night. He covers Bailey Ober and the Minnesota Twins against Slade Cecconi and the Cleveland Guardians, calling Cleveland's price too cheap, then returns to Pittsburgh for a game two look at Bubba Chandler against Max Fried, leaning to the Pirates as plus money underdogs. He works through the Tampa Bay Rays at the Toronto Blue Jays, a Baltimore and Boston nightcap at Fenway featuring Kyle Bradish, Michael King and the San Diego Padres against Martin Perez and the Atlanta Braves, the Chicago White Sox at Tyler Alexander and the Texas Rangers in what looks like a bullpen game, and Keider Montero and the Detroit Tigers against Colin Rea at a wind blown Wrigley Field. He closes the card with Sandy Alcantara and the Miami Marlins against Peter Lambert and the Houston Astros, leaning to the under in the final game of the night. Along the way he shares a new Pregame dot com promo code, early seven seven seven, worth ninety eight dollars in savings on football season all access packages good through the Hall of Fame Game in early August. He wraps with the show's recent betting record and lands on his featured best bet of the episode, the Arizona Diamondbacks and Merrill Kelly as home favorites in an early desert matinee against the Athletics.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Tuesday. Griffin Warner runs through a full board of Major League Baseball lines on the July 21st episode of What I Bet, part of the Straight Out of Vegas AM podcast feed, working game by game across a slate that stands as the only major action on the calendar with the World Cup finished and European soccer still weeks away. He opens by noting a strong recent run of picks, then works through a value spot on the Dodgers as a plus-money road underdog in Philadelphia against Zach Wheeler, a Twins-Guardians rematch in Cleveland following a five-home run outburst, a look at Bubba Chandler and the Pirates catching a diminished Yankees lineup in the Bronx, and a plan to keep fading a struggling Kevin Gausman in Toronto. He breaks down why the Orioles carry value in Boston against a Red Sox club working a starter back from injury, why the Padres are getting more plus-money than expected in Atlanta, and how a Brandon Sproat storyline shapes his lean in the Mets-Brewers total. He spends extended time explaining why he wants nothing to do with the San Francisco Giants' defense in Kansas City, along with looks at the Tigers, Marlins, White Sox, a massive total in Colorado, a first-five under in Anaheim, and continued concerns about the Seattle offense heading into a matchup with Cincinnati. Along the way he details a promo code offering listeners a discount on his season-long Major League Baseball coverage. The episode closes with his Best Bet of the show, a play on the Kansas City Royals built around fading the Giants entirely, capping a detailed, game-by-game walkthrough of everything moving on the baseball board that day.

Munaf Manji talks betting for Monday. Munaf Manji goes solo on this edition of Cash That Ticket, holding down the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed on Monday, July 20, 2026, while his usual co-host handles a personal matter, and he wastes no time diving into a packed MLB second half slate just a day after Spain claimed the 2026 World Cup title, with college football, the NFL, and the EPL all now less than seven weeks away. Munaf opens with a quick look back at Sunday's doubleheader split between the Yankees and Dodgers before turning to the night's marquee matchups, starting with Joe Ryan and the Twins traveling into Cleveland to face Tanner Bibee and the Guardians, a matchup he frames as a likely low scoring affair and ultimately builds into his top play of the day, the first five innings staying under four total runs. From there he shifts to Yankee Stadium, where Braxton Ashcraft and the Pittsburgh Pirates take on Ryan Weathers and a Yankees offense that has struggled to generate runs without Aaron Judge in the lineup, leading Munaf to back the Pirates on the money line. He then breaks down a series opener in Philadelphia between Emmet Sheehan and the Dodgers against a red hot Christopher Sanchez, who Munaf argues belongs in the National League Cy Young conversation given his dominant numbers at home, structuring his play around the Phillies on the run line rather than the straight money line. The show spends real time on the Boston Red Sox, winners of thirteen straight games, as they host the streaking Baltimore Orioles at Fenway Park in a matchup with direct implications for the tightening American League wild card race, with Shane Baz opposing Payton Tolle and Munaf ultimately favoring the Red Sox across the first five innings rather than laying the bigger number on the full game given recent bullpen concerns. Munaf also previews a high total matchup at Wrigley Field between Jack Flaherty and the Tigers against Jameson Taillon and the Cubs, where strong winds blowing out are expected to boost scoring, along with a brief mention of the Miami Marlins as a value side against Ronel Blanco and the Astros. Before wrapping the show, Munaf reminds listeners about pregame.com's promo code STAR25, good for twenty five percent off any purchase on the site, including a discounted second half MLB all access package that covers every pick through the World Series, and shares that he is running a strong profit margin in MLB betting since he began tracking results back in mid-May. The episode closes with a recap of the top play of the day, the Twins and Guardians staying under four runs through the first five innings behind Joe Ryan and Tanner Bibee, and a preview of tomorrow's show, when Munaf's usual co-host is expected to return and the two plan to pick back up their ongoing coverage of MLB alongside their season long series ranking NFL win totals as football season approaches.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Friday. Griffin Warner returns with a new episode of the What I Bet Podcast on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed from the Pregame.com Podcast Network, diving into a loaded Friday, July 17th Major League Baseball card while riding a strong recent stretch of 5 and 2 in his last 7 picks, 7 and 3 in his last 10, and 10 and 5 in his last 15. The episode opens with an early matinee between the Tampa Bay Rays and Boston Red Sox, featuring Griffin Jax against rookie left hander Jake Bennett, before moving into the marquee matchup of the night as the Los Angeles Dodgers visit the New York Yankees with Roki Sasaki opposing Gerrit Cole, a game complicated by the possible absence of Shohei Ohtani and the continued absence of Aaron Judge. Warner works methodically through the rest of the card, breaking down Jared Jones against Gavin Williams as the Pittsburgh Pirates travel to face the Cleveland Guardians, a matchup that becomes central to the episode. He also covers Anthony Kay and the first place Chicago White Sox against Spencer Miles and the Toronto Blue Jays, Cal Quantrill and the Texas Rangers against a red hot Chris Sale and the Atlanta Braves, and Sandy Alcantara leading the Miami Marlins against Logan Henderson and the Milwaukee Brewers. From there, Warner turns to Bailey Ober and the Minnesota Twins against Colin Rea and the Chicago Cubs, citing possible wind conditions at Wrigley Field, along with Dean Kremer and the Baltimore Orioles against Peter Lambert and a Houston Astros bullpen bolstered by the return of closer Josh Hader. He continues through Michael King and the San Diego Padres against Seth Lugo and the Kansas City Royals, Brady Singer and the Cincinnati Reds against Gabriel Hughes and the Colorado Rockies, Troy Melton and the Detroit Tigers against Reid Detmers and the Los Angeles Angels, Cade Cavalli and the Washington Nationals against Gage Jump and an Athletics club currently playing in Sacramento, and closes the card breakdown with Landen Roupp and the San Francisco Giants against a surging Bryce Miller and the Seattle Mariners. Along the way, Warner shares a major promotional code, base25, offering 25 percent off any purchase at Pregame.com including his own season long MLB All Access package, dropping the price from 349 dollars to 262 dollars before the offer expires on July 27th, while noting he is up 21 and a half units of MLB profit on the season. The episode closes with Warner's official best bet, backing the Cleveland Guardians and Gavin Williams at minus 129 after building his case around Cleveland's pitching depth and bullpen advantage over Pittsburgh throughout the show. Listeners can find new episodes of the What I Bet Podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify through the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed on the Pregame.com Podcast Network, with daily updates from Warner available at Real_G_Warner.

Griffin Warner talks sports betting for Tuesday. Griffin Warner delivers a leaner but sharp episode of What I Bet built around the only two events worth betting on this Tuesday, the World Cup semifinal between Spain and France at AT&T Stadium in Arlington and the Major League Baseball All Star Game at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. Griffin opens at 0:32 by setting the stage for Spain and France, two nations that entered the tournament as co favorites at 5 to 1 odds as of July 3rd but have since diverged, with France now installed as the clear favorite needing a win in regulation to cover the spread. At 1:17 Griffin lays out his case for Spain, arguing that their possession based style works identically whether they are favored or underdogs, a trait he considers rare in knockout soccer, and noting the team is getting healthier at the right time. At 1:33 he acknowledges France's individual talent, led by Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele, both of whom scored from outside the box in a 2 to 0 quarterfinal win over Morocco discussed at 2:03, while questioning whether longtime manager Didier Deschamps offers much beyond simply fielding the more talented roster. By 2:18 Griffin lands on his headline soccer pick, backing Spain as a quarter goal underdog and urging listeners to grab the number immediately before it shifts, explaining that the quarter goal split between a pick em portion and a plus one half portion protects bettors with a partial cash return if the match extends into extra time, which he expects given Spain's discipline defending against counterattacks. At 2:48 he shares his lean on the two and a half goal total, expecting the public to favor the over given the star power on both rosters while he sees a low scoring, controlled match shaping up instead, landing at 3:19 on a combined recommendation of Spain under the total and Spain to advance outright near plus 130 depending on the sportsbook. The show pivots to baseball at 3:49, with Griffin outlining the All Star Game lines, a National League team favored at minus 128 against the American League at plus 116, and a total of eight runs priced at minus 104 to the under and minus 116 to the over. At 4:20 he explains his general approach to exhibition baseball, trusting that the sport's best pitchers will suppress even the hottest first half hitters, despite acknowledging Philadelphia's shorter outfield dimensions raise the risk profile for an under play. At 4:50 Griffin spends real time on the Toronto Blue Jays' dominant presence in All Star voting following last season's seven game World Series run, highlighting Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s selection as the American League's starting first baseman despite a career worst first half that included stretches of just five home runs, and wondering aloud whether a taxing offseason program contributed to the decline. At 5:05 he notes Blue Jays manager John Schneider is running the American League dugout, tying the assignment to Toronto's pennant winning season, and projects a National League win that should mean fewer total at bats and a lower final score. After a quick promotional break at 5:35 pointing listeners toward pregame dot com and the CUP15 discount code for 15 dollars off any package, including Griffin's World Cup All Access pass covering the tournament's final four match days for 60 dollars instead of 75, Griffin previews an upcoming return to full scale baseball coverage once the World Cup wraps this Sunday and marks the milestone of six years and 64 episodes of Pregame Network podcasting. He closes at 6:51 with his top play of the night, the under eight runs total in the All Star Game, built on the theory that elite pitching wins out over hot hitting even in a hitter friendly ballpark, and offers the under first five innings at 7:07 as a higher variance alternative for bettors wanting extra action, reasoning that without extra innings or the Manfred Man rule extending the game the first five inning number offers a cleaner read on true scoring pace. Griffin signs off previewing Tuesday's World Cup semifinal as the centerpiece of the show's next episode and thanking listeners for their continued support of What I Bet and the wider Straight Outta Vegas AM lineup on the Pregame Network.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Friday. On this Friday edition closing out the first half of the baseball season, Munaf Manji and Dave Essler run through a full slate of matchups before turning their attention to an NFL win total preview on the Dallas Cowboys, all while being honest about a rougher stretch of results over the past couple weeks. Dave opens by noting he cashed his client best bet on the Brewers first five the night before, and he shares that he likes Matt Fitzpatrick and Rory heading through their respective golf rounds. Munaf explains that Thursday cards have been a consistent trouble spot this season, largely because of the thin getaway day schedule, and he pledges never to force plays just to have something on the board every day. The two then work through four featured games in careful detail. In the nation's capital, Ryan Weathers and the Yankees face Carson Palmquist and the Nationals, with both hosts leaning heavily on the over given Palmquist's expected short outing, a shaky Nationals bullpen, and a Nationals lineup that leads the majors in runs scored, plus a standout trend showing the Nationals going twelve and three to the over in the first game of a home series this season. In Tampa Bay, Luis Castillo and the Mariners take on Nick Martinez and the Rays, with the pair pointing to Castillo's poor history following high pitch count starts and Martinez owning a career mark of zero and four against Seattle, landing both hosts on the over and some added interest in the Rays moneyline. In Miami, Parker Messick faces Sandy Alcantara in what both expect to be a tightly pitched affair, with a detailed discussion of pitch count trends, Jose Ramirez potentially returning to the Guardians lineup soon, and Alcantara's strong home splits this season. In Cincinnati, Shota Imanaga takes on a struggling Hunter Greene coming off a brutal return from injury, with both hosts leaning toward the Cubs in the first five innings and citing Imanaga's strong career track record against the Reds, including a ten strikeout effort earlier this season. The conversation also touches briefly on several other games around the board, including Chris Sale and the Braves against the Cardinals, the Dodgers as rare underdogs against the Diamondbacks, a total that spiked from nine and a half to ten and a half between Baltimore and Kansas City, action involving the Athletics and White Sox, a total shift in the Astros and Rangers game, the Angels and Twins, Phillies and Tigers, Red Sox and Mets, and a notable total jump in the Blue Jays and Padres matchup. From there, the show shifts into a lengthy and opinionated breakdown of the Dallas Cowboys ahead of the coming NFL season, with a win total set at nine and a half. Dave delivers an extended take on ownership, ongoing questions about the new defensive coordinator and head coaching staff, and why he continues to side with the under until the results prove otherwise, while Munaf highlights a brutal opening stretch of the schedule, an offense that should remain productive, and a defense that gave up the second most points in the league last season, ultimately projecting an eight or nine win season. The episode wraps with best bets for Friday, as the hosts land on a Royals team total play, a low scoring first five bet between the Guardians and Marlins, and a bonus mention involving a red hot Twins starter against a struggling Orioles pitcher working back from injury. Before signing off, the pair remind listeners this is the final show before the All-Star break, with new episodes returning around July twenty first, and they encourage listeners to check out a discounted picks package covering baseball, golf, and basketball coverage heading into a busy sports weekend that also includes UFC action and World Cup quarterfinal matches.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Friday. Griffin Warner opens the latest episode of the What I Bet podcast with a full breakdown of the biggest remaining World Cup quarterfinal, Belgium against Spain, before working through the entire Major League Baseball card and landing on the night's featured best bet, all while riding a hot recent stretch that has the show at nine wins and four losses across its last thirteen selections. Belgium arrives having stunned the United States in Seattle, a result built on an aggressive opening from a golden generation anchored by Romelu Lukaku, Kevin De Bruyne, and longtime goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, a group Warner calls the most talented in the nation's history despite years of underachievement on the international stage. He walks through how that match turned on a costly American goalkeeping mistake and frames this tournament as potentially the last realistic chance at glory for this core of Belgian players. Standing across from them is a Spanish side Warner considers more dominant than Argentina, even though Spain has looked shakier than expected this tournament, dealing with injury concerns around Lamine Yamal and fellow winger Nico Williams and needing a stoppage time goal to escape Portugal. Warner argues Spain remains a sleeping giant given its championship pedigree dating back to 2010 and its sustained run of success at the Euros, and he walks listeners through how the betting market has shifted, with Belgium drawing real money on the spread and the total climbing from two and a half goals toward two and three quarters. On the outright market to advance, Spain has moved from minus three hundred thirty five down toward minus three fifteen while Belgium has drifted back out to plus two sixty five, a swing Warner ties directly to bettors buying into the Belgian upset. From there the show pivots into the Major League Baseball card, where Warner builds his own numbers from scratch before comparing them to the market in real time. He covers bullpen concerns in Pittsburgh, a Yankees lineup trying to bounce back from a rough outing in Tampa, a Washington offense that has hit consistently all season, a Kansas City team he wants no part of, a red hot Miami bullpen, and a Boston starter pitching with something to prove after being left off the All-Star roster. He continues through matchups involving Cincinnati and Chicago, Seattle and Tampa Bay, Houston and Texas, Atlanta and St. Louis, Toronto and San Diego, Arizona and Los Angeles, and Colorado and San Francisco, offering a lean or a pass on nearly every game while explaining exactly what is driving each number. The episode closes with the night's featured best bet, Minnesota at home against the Los Angeles Angels, with Warner backing the Twins as Los Angeles wraps up a second consecutive road series heading into the All-Star break. Listeners can find the full show daily on Pregame Now and can save money on World Cup coverage and individual day picks using a promo code mentioned during the episode, good through the twentieth of July.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Thursday. Munaf Manji and Uncle Dave Essler open Thursday's episode of Cash That Ticket riding a two-for-two night on best bets, having cashed the Washington Nationals team total over four and a half against the Houston Astros and a comfortable Padres win the night before, before turning their full attention to a busy getaway-day slate across Major League Baseball. The two work through nearly every matchup on the six-forty Eastern window, starting with the Athletics and Tigers in Detroit, where a late bullpen shuffle for Oakland puts Jose Suarez in an opener role against Framber Valdez, a pitcher Essler says grows sloppy against lesser competition and whose splits back it up, a 2.95 ERA in day games against a 5.06 mark at night, leading both hosts to the Athletics team total over and a first five innings over. From there the show shifts to Seattle's visit to Miami, where Bryce Miller's elite control this season, sixty two strikeouts against just five walks and a 0.676 WHIP, squares off with Janson Junk in his first start back from a shin injury, and Manji builds his headline best bet of the day around the Mariners first five innings run line, betting that Seattle gets to Junk early and rides Miller through the middle innings. The Brewers and Cardinals draw attention next, with Logan Henderson returning from a back issue to face Andre Pallante, a pitcher who has been unable to beat Milwaukee in four tries this season and owns a far worse home ERA than road mark, pushing both hosts toward Milwaukee and a first five innings under. The toughest call of the night comes in Arizona's trip to San Diego, where neither Merrill Kelly nor Griffin Canning inspires much confidence, both carrying ERAs north of five and seventy, and the two ultimately fade a market-favored over in favor of the under, with a lean toward the Diamondbacks given San Diego's inconsistent offense and Kelly's rough recent history against the division. Rounding out the card, the hosts touch on a Phillies team total over against a homer-prone Brady Singer, a first five innings lean on the Angels against Texas, and an under look at the Rockies and Giants. The back half of the show turns to football, continuing a running series of NFL win total previews with a detailed breakdown of the Jacksonville Jaguars, fresh off a thirteen and four season, an AFC South title, and an eight game winning streak to close the year under first year head coach Liam Coen. Essler and Manji dig into the departure of running back Travis Etienne to the New Orleans Saints, the uncertain readiness of Bhayshul Tuten to replace his receiving and blocking value, continued doubts about quarterback Trevor Lawrence turning a corner, the loss of linebacker Devin Lloyd on defense, and a schedule that includes just six true home games and a brutal late season road stretch. Essler reluctantly lands on the over given Jacksonville's raw talent, while Manji takes the under, pointing to the tougher slate and thinner roster depth, and both agree Houston is the favorite to win the division this season regardless of where Jacksonville's total settles. The episode closes with a recap of the day's best bets, a look ahead to Friday's show covering the Dallas Cowboys win total, and a quick mention of a subscription promotion for the upcoming football season. Throughout the episode, timestamps mark each matchup discussion, from the two forty two mark opening the MLB slate through the twenty two thirty six mark beginning the Jacksonville breakdown, giving listeners an easy way to jump straight to the picks and analysis that matter most to them.

Griffin Warner talks betting for July 9th. Griffin Warner opens episode 61 of What I Bet on a winning note, cashing the Marlins moneyline as Tuesday night's best bet and pushing the show's recent form to 8 and 4 in the last 12 picks, 5 and 2 in the last 7, and 3 and 1 in the last 4. The episode carries the name of Heriberto Hernandez, the Marlins outfielder who has become a frequent feature on recent Marlins broadcasts thanks to a run of highlight reel home runs. From there the show turns to the World Cup quarterfinals, where four matches are on tap for Thursday, July 9, and the biggest one by far is France against Morocco at Gillette Stadium outside Boston. Griffin calls France the most talented team in the tournament behind Kylian Mbappe and Michael Olise, co favorites with Spain, but questions whether manager Didier Deschamps will let his players attack with the freedom their talent deserves given how conservative Deschamps has been all tournament. That doubt pushes Griffin toward Morocco, a one goal underdog with the total at two and a half, a price he calls expensive but still appealing given how much more pragmatic and possession oriented Morocco has become in this competition. He also floats a Morocco to advance price near plus 305, leaning on his earlier successful call backing Morocco past the Netherlands. The show then moves into a full Major League Baseball breakdown covering nine games on the July 9 card. Bryce Elder and the Atlanta Braves visit Mitch Keller and the Pittsburgh Pirates in an early getaway day matchup, with Griffin leaning toward the Pirates at a plus price. Michael Wacha and the Kansas City Royals visit Sean Manaea and the New York Mets, with Griffin favoring Kansas City. Trevor Rogers and the Baltimore Orioles host David Peterson and the Chicago Cubs in what Griffin calls his top interest of the day. Patrick Sandoval and the Boston Red Sox visit Anthony Kay and the Chicago White Sox, with Griffin fading the White Sox. Jack Perkins and the Athletics visit Framber Valdez and the Detroit Tigers, with Griffin liking the Tigers price. Jesus Luzardo and the Philadelphia Phillies visit Brady Singer and the Cincinnati Reds, with Griffin leaning to the over. Logan Henderson and the Milwaukee Brewers visit Andre Pallante and the St. Louis Cardinals, with Griffin sticking to his rule against road favorites and taking the Brewers. Reid Detmers and the Los Angeles Angels visit Nathan Eovaldi and the Texas Rangers, with Griffin leaning under while flagging the shaky Angels bullpen. Merrill Kelly and the Arizona Diamondbacks visit Griffin Canning and the San Diego Padres, with Griffin fading a tired San Diego bullpen after closer Mason Miller worked on Tuesday. To close the episode, Griffin delivers his single best bet of the day, the Baltimore Orioles at minus 125 behind Trevor Rogers in an early matinee against the Chicago Cubs, calling Rogers the far more trustworthy arm in a spot he believes is priced too cheap. He wraps by restating the show's hot recent stretch and encouraging listeners to keep riding the streak through both the World Cup and Major League Baseball slates, with new episodes landing daily on the Straight Outta Vegas AM podcast feed and across social media at Real Underscore G.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Wednesday. On this episode of Cash That Ticket, Munaf Manji and Dave Essler open by reviewing a one and one showing on Tuesday's best bets, highlighting a walk off win for the Miami Marlins on the moneyline against the Seattle Mariners and a missed over in the Arizona Diamondbacks and San Diego Padres game that stalled out after a fast start. From there the pair moves into a loaded Wednesday slate, starting at (2:16) with Gerrit Cole and the New York Yankees traveling to face Shane McClanahan and the Tampa Bay Rays, breaking down McClanahan's dramatic split between a dominant May and a rough June, his shifting batted ball profile, and Cole's struggles against left handed hitters, before Essler leans toward the total and New York while Manji prefers the Rays in the first five innings, pointing to McClanahan's strong home numbers and Cole's road troubles. At (6:42) the focus shifts to Spencer Arrighetti and the Houston Astros against Foster Griffin and the Washington Nationals, where Manji digs into Arrighetti's sharply different walk rates at home and on the road and both hosts land on the Nationals team total going over, both for the full game and in the first five innings. At (10:21) the conversation turns to Jake Bennett and the red hot Boston Red Sox against Davis Martin and the Chicago White Sox, with Martin's perfect home record and stingy home ERA driving the hosts toward Chicago at home and the under, while Manji lays out Martin's specific history against Boston over the last two seasons. At (13:55) Jose Cabrera and the Arizona Diamondbacks visit Michael King and the San Diego Padres, and the hosts revisit King's strong history against Arizona this season while noting Cabrera's inexperience at the Triple-A level, settling on the Padres in the first five innings on the run line. At (17:23) Essler runs through the rest of the card, touching on the Cincinnati Reds, the Milwaukee Brewers bullpen usage after a heavy pitch count outing from Jacob Misiorowski, the Athletics against the Tigers, the Guardians and Twins, the Rangers and Angels, the lone day game between the Blue Jays and Giants, the Cubs and Orioles, the Mariners and Marlins, and a Royals and Mets series still shaking off a wild sixteen to twelve final from the night before. At (20:17) the show shifts into its NFL win total series, landing on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at eight and a half wins for 2026 after an eight and nine finish the year before. The hosts weigh the loss of Mike Evans to the San Francisco 49ers and the retirement of longtime linebacker Lavonte David against a healthier outlook for Baker Mayfield in a contract year, a young receiver group led by Emeka Egbuka and Jalen McMillan, added depth back Kenneth Gainwell, and a manageable NFC South, ultimately leaning toward the over and projecting nine to ten wins while noting the stakes for head coach Todd Bowles if the team misses the playoffs again. The episode wraps at (31:01) with best bets from both hosts, Essler on the Padres in the first five innings and Manji on the Nationals team total over, along with one final look ahead to a potential fade on the Brewers rotation before Thursday's show, which turns to the Jacksonville Jaguars win total and more of the week's baseball results, plus a reminder about the latest pregame.com promo code for listeners looking to save on second half baseball coverage.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Wednesday. Episode 60 of What I Bet lands on a rare open date, the first day without World Cup soccer since June 10, so host Griffin Warner turns the full show over to Major League Baseball, walking through every game on the July 8 card with numbers he builds himself before ever looking at the market. He opens by circling back to a difficult Marlins home game from the night before, a 4-0 deficit that briefly tightened to 5-4 on a wild pitch, tying it to a second straight rough outing from Miami's starter and a stat about teams winning roughly 34 straight games at home when holding a three or four run cushion. From there he moves methodically through the slate, starting with Toronto's Dylan Cease as a modest road favorite over San Francisco's Logan Webb, where a low total and tricky daytime hitting conditions push him toward the under. The Cubs and Orioles get a cautious look with bullpen concerns on both sides, including an Orioles reliever heading to the injured list amid what Warner calls ongoing organizational turbulence since a change in ownership. The night's headline pick arrives with Atlanta's visit to Pittsburgh, where Warner details the Braves' fall from one of the sport's largest division leads, the absence of a key everyday player, and the loss of a closer who had taken over that role after arriving from San Diego, all feeding into a string of bullpen collapses including a near meltdown against the Mets. He leans to Jared Jones and the Pirates at minus 115, a matchup edge he sees clearly favoring Pittsburgh's rotation arm even with a shaky bullpen behind him, and it becomes the show's official best bet of the night. Elsewhere on the card, Gerrit Cole is priced as an unusually large underdog in Tampa against a Rays lineup Warner breaks down using an OPS graphic he shared publicly, showing real depth concerns outside of three hitters even as the team sits atop its division, pushing him toward the under and toward Tampa Bay at home. Houston's price in Washington feels too rich to touch after Houston blew a big lead earlier in the week, so he waits on a number that has room to move. Boston draws his interest as an underdog against Chicago regardless of the standings gap, built on trust in the Red Sox's pitching and defense even with a quiet offense, while he remains unsure what identity the White Sox are working with this season. Cleveland gets a plus money lean in Minnesota on bullpen trust, Milwaukee's strikeout arm draws praise ahead of a road trip to St Louis coming off a doubleheader, and the under looks appealing late with the Angels facing a hot Rangers staff in Arlington. The final pair of games, Colorado in Los Angeles and Arizona in San Diego, both draw under leans on the totals, with Warner citing thin offenses and uncertainty around a couple of bullpens rounding out the card. Before wrapping, he shares a savings note tied to the remaining World Cup schedule as the tournament heads toward its knockout stage, then closes with the official What I Bet best bet of the night, the Pittsburgh Pirates at minus 115 over Atlanta, delivered with a season record of three and two over his last five picks and six and four over his last ten. It is a complete, number driven pass through a full baseball slate, built the same way every night, comparing independent projections to the market before deciding where the value actually sits, then backing it with a single call to close the show.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Tuesday. Griffin Warner opens episode 59 of What I Bet by looking back at two rough nights in Atlanta, where a blown ninth inning save on Sunday and a brutal extra inning loss on Monday turned safe unders into painful beats, leaving the show at 3 and 2 over its last five picks and 6 and 4 over its last ten heading into a Tuesday, July 7 card loaded with a World Cup window and sixteen Major League Baseball games. Warner turns first to the United States exit from the World Cup, describing goalkeeping mistakes on Monday night as some of the worst imaginable and pointing out that Portugal and Spain, both heavy favorites, needed stoppage time goals just to survive, a pattern that has produced ten stoppage time losses on his card this tournament even as he remains over five hundred overall. He breaks down an 11 a.m. Central kickoff between Argentina and Egypt, explaining a heavily juiced one and a half goal Argentina favorite against plus money on Egypt at a goal and a quarter, walking through how a one goal loss wins half the bet, a draw or win cashes it fully, and a two goal loss loses it all, while noting Lionel Messi alone can move plenty of money before the noon Eastern kickoff. He follows with a 3 p.m. Central match between Switzerland and Colombia, praising Swiss captain Granit Xhaka as one of the best midfield conductors in Europe and leaning toward Switzerland at any underdog price alongside the under at two and a quarter goals, while crediting Colombia's group win over Portugal as more a product of betting against Portugal than betting on Colombia itself. Warner then details how both World Cup moneylines have moved before shifting into a full baseball slate that opens with a Milwaukee and St. Louis doubleheader, where Jacob Misiorowski takes the mound fresh off a rough outing against Cincinnati. He works through Chicago and Baltimore, where an injury prone veteran finally looks like himself, Atlanta and Pittsburgh, where two bad bullpen nights make the matchup tough to trust, New York and Tampa Bay, Detroit and Oakland, Seattle and Miami, Houston and Washington, Philadelphia and Cincinnati, Kansas City and New York, a Boston and Chicago battle he calls tricky given his rule against road favorites, Cleveland and Minnesota, the doubleheader nightcap between Milwaukee and St. Louis, Los Angeles and Texas, Arizona and San Diego, Toronto and San Francisco, and a closing matchup between Colorado and Los Angeles that Warner calls far too cheap on the favorite. He closes the show with an update on an expired promo code, a promise to try to bring it back for Pregame.com, and his best bet of the night on the Miami Marlins and Max Meyer at home, calling it backing the hand that has fed the show all season and refusing to bite it before pointing listeners to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Straight Outta Vegas AM on social media.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Tuesday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler open their Tuesday, July 7, 2026 show by revisiting Monday's card, where a first five innings call on Atlanta cashed even as the Braves bullpen later surrendered an eleven run ninth inning, while a three star Dodgers team total over covered a wild extra innings win over the Rockies. From there the two work through a full Tuesday baseball slate, starting with Milwaukee and St Louis opening a day night doubleheader behind Jacob Misiorowski, before turning to a headline matchup between the Chicago Cubs and Baltimore Orioles, where Matthew Boyd opposes Shane Baz. Both hosts lean toward Chicago after examining Boyd's strong run support and Baz's fly ball tendencies coming off a heavy pitch count start. The conversation moves to Sacramento's trip to Detroit, where J.T. Ginn faces Tarik Skubal, with the hosts split between concerns over Ginn's recent home run rate and Skubal's own workload questions after a 104 pitch outing. Atlanta's visit to Pittsburgh draws a long discussion of both bullpens, with Hurston Waldrep opposing Paul Skenes, and Munaf ultimately backing the Pirates on the money line despite a rough recent stretch for the Pittsburgh ace. Boston and the Chicago White Sox follow, with Payton Tolle against Noah Schultz, and both hosts landing on the home underdog White Sox given a hot recent stretch and command questions surrounding Tolle. A rapid tour of the rest of the card touches Arizona and San Diego, Cleveland and Minnesota, Seattle's trip to Miami, and a Houston and Washington matchup featuring Tatsuya Imai and Andrew Alvarez, along with starts from Zach Wheeler, Trevor McDonald and Michael Lorenzen. After a quick mention of a new Pregame.com discount code, the show pivots to football for the latest entry in its NFL win total series, a detailed breakdown of the Pittsburgh Steelers heading into 2026. The hosts walk through an offseason that brought a new head coach in Mike McCarthy, the return of Aaron Rodgers for a final season, and a retooled receiving corps built around DK Metcalf, Michael Pittman Jr, Darnell Washington and Pat Freiermuth. Weighing an accomplished pass rush duo in TJ Watt and Alex Highsmith against an aging offensive line and a defense leaning on veterans, both hosts land on the over for Pittsburgh's eight and a half win total, pointing to a favorable schedule and a division full of first year coaching staffs. The episode closes with Tuesday's best bets, an over in the Arizona and San Diego game from Dave and a Marlins money line pick from Munaf built around a dominant home pitching performance, before the two tease Wednesday's show and its look at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Monday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler open a new week on Cash That Ticket with a jam packed Monday show covering a loaded MLB slate and the next big NFL win total heading into the season. Coming off a one and one showing on Friday's Best Bet feature, the guys look to get back on track with the All Star break just around the corner, and Dave checks in from Florida after a weekend where both of his biggest bets cashed. The two dive straight into the Monday card, breaking down a huge AL East clash between the Yankees and Rays, weighing Cam Schlittler's uneven recent form against Griffin Jax's ability to limit hard contact, with both hosts ultimately siding with Tampa Bay. From there they turn to the Astros and Nationals, working through shaky recent outings from both starters before landing on Washington's offense as the more trustworthy side, all while flagging an interesting reverse line movement in the marketplace. The Mets and Braves closing out their series in Atlanta gets a full breakdown too, with a first five inning angle drawing plenty of attention alongside Atlanta's strong history bouncing back after a loss. Milwaukee and St Louis bring a classic market versus gut debate, and the Diamondbacks and Padres matchup closes the featured card with a deep look at Walker Buehler's dominant career history against Arizona. The guys also squeeze in quick hits on the late West Coast slate involving the Giants, Blue Jays, Rockies, and Dodgers before shifting gears entirely into football. The next NFL win total on the board belongs to the Minnesota Vikings, sitting at eight and a half games, and the hosts spend real time on the team's rotating quarterback situation from a season ago, the arrival of Kyler Murray, and what a retooled defense means for the ceiling of this roster heading into the year. Dave offers an unusually honest look at his own skepticism toward Murray before landing on the over, and Munaf builds the case further with a breakdown of the schedule and the coaching staff's track record of getting the most out of its quarterbacks. Before wrapping up, the guys remind listeners about the FIREWORKS12 promo code still active on pregame.com for picks packages through the end of the night, covering weekend, thirty day all access, and early bird NFL options as the calendar turns toward August. The show closes out with best bets from both hosts, one built around a National League East divisional matchup in the first five innings and another anchored by a proven veteran arm on the mound in San Diego, before the two preview tomorrow's show, which will dig into the Pittsburgh Steelers win total along with another full day of baseball. Whether you are looking for sharp MLB matchup analysis, an early read on next season's NFL win totals, or just want to hear two seasoned handicappers work through their thinking in real time, this episode delivers a complete and detailed breakdown of everything moving the betting markets on a busy Monday in July.
