Elly De La Cruz is undergoing an urgent Monday morning MRI after exiting early with right hamstring tightness. Corey Pieper analyzes the massive fallout from weekend injury news, key Statcast trends, the Waiver Wire segment, and the FanDuel Bet of the Day. The medical updates are altering the fantasy landscape as Munetaka Murakami is sidelined for up to six weeks with a severe hamstring injury, Eury Perez suffers an eight-week gracilis strain, and both Casey Mize and Bailey Ober hit the shelf. Fantasy managers get a breath of fresh air as Logan Webb and Jung Hoo Lee return from the injured list. Statcast data signals a massive buying opportunity for Shota Imanaga despite coughing up three home runs, as his underlying vertical approach angle remains elite. Conversely, look under the hood of Bailey Ober's horrific twelve-hit shellacking, where a sudden velocity dip preceded his immediate move to the injured list with elbow inflammation. For the Waiver Wire, we map out priority additions available in most shallow configurations, highlighting deep-league stashes like Jake Bauers, Carson Benge, Curtis Mead, Tatsuya Imai, Kai-Wei Teng, and Troy Melton.

Send us Fan MailFor the second series in the row, the Minnesota Twins take two of three, this time against the visiting Miami Marlins at Target Field. Sandwiched around another poor start from SWR were two excellent starts (and wins) by Bailey Ober and Zebby Matthews, each of whom draw praise from Dan and David. David chronicles the letdown of an evening it was for Minnesota sports fans on Wednesday, but he's in complete support of the decision to demote Matt Wallner. Dan is still waiting for Kaelen Culpepper's call-up, even as he continues to see Royce Lewis through rose-colored glasses.

Host Michael Rand starts with a postgame Wolves breakdown alongside Star Tribune columnist Jim Souhan. Their 126-97 loss not only left them in a 3-2 series hole against San Antonio, but also exposed the gap between Minnesota and the top two teams in the West. Still, there is a chance to rally in Game 6 at Target Center and force a Game 7. 21:00: The Frost season ended, the Lynx season is showing some early promise, the Wild are trying to hang on Wednesday, the Twins got a gem from Bailey Ober and the Vikings are headed to Mexico City.
Paul Skenes went 8 innings with 10 strikeouts Tuesday, and Bailey Ober threw a Maddux — a complete game under 100 pitches — making it a big night for pitching. Joe Bond has the full recap on today's First Cup Fantasy Baseball, including the FanDuel Bet of the Day: Yankees (Fried) -1.5 vs. Orioles (Bradish) at -108. On the studs side, Daylen Lile, Luis Garcia Jr., and Eric Haase each went deep twice, while Ezequiel Duran and Randy Arozarena also stood out. On the duds side, Yamamoto, Jeffrey Springs, Trevor Rodgers, Joc Pederson, Rafael Devers, Munetaka Murakami, and Cam Smith all had ones to forget. Today's rotating segment is Drops, with Joe looking at Steven Kwan, Ryan Walker, Luis Castillo, and Christian Walker, plus a watch list featuring Matt Chapman and Ramon Laureano. On the injury and news front: A.J. Ewing shined in his MLB debut, Bolte was called up for the Athletics but did not play, Chandler Simpson was held out of Tuesday's lineup, Ronald Acuna is unlikely to return Wednesday, the Yankees are placing José Caballero on the IL and recalling Anthony Volpe, Christian Yelich was activated from the injured list, Quinn Priester is cleared to resume his rehab assignment, Eugenio Suarez is resuming hitting, Willson Contreras was not in Tuesday's lineup, and Sean Murphy is out with a finger fracture.

Paul Skenes lands in the dud column on today's First Cup Fantasy Baseball, while Logan Webb, Cristopher Sanchez, and Bailey Ober all earn studs recognition. Host Joe Bond runs through his Two-Start Pitchers and Weekend Planner segment to help you set your roster heading into the weekend. On the Two-Start/Weekend Planner, Cade Cavalli and Tyler Glasnow both get the start nod, while Bubba Chandler and Nick Martinez are questionable. Jack Flaherty is a sit, and Aaron Nola and Chase Dollander are streaming options. In studs and duds, Kyle Schwarber, Adley Rutschman, MJ Melendez, and Spencer Steer join Webb, Sanchez, and Ober as studs. On the dud side, Samuel Basallo, Hunter Goodman, Vinnie Pasquantino, Lance McCullers Jr., and Kevin Gausman join Skenes. On the injury and news front, Brandon Woodruff was removed with diminished velo, Tyler Soderstrom missed a second straight day, and Jeffrey Springs was removed with a hip injury but is expected to make his next start. Nick Kurtz walked for a 19th straight game, now just three away from tying the all-time record held by Roy Cullenbine in 1947. Today's FanDuel Bet of the Day is Zack Wheeler over 7 strikeouts vs. Miami at +102. Wheeler threw 84 pitches last game with 6 Ks in 5 innings, and figures to push into the 6th against Miami with a higher pitch count.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Thursday. Munaf Manji and Uncle Diamond Dave Essler close out the month of April on the Cash That Ticket podcast, airing on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed, with a full breakdown of Thursday's NBA playoff slate and a sharp late MLB play. Coming off a five and one week and a productive month across the board, the guys come in focused and pick apart every angle on a loaded three-game NBA card before turning their attention to Kevin Gausman and Bailey Ober squaring off in a late Blue Jays-Twins matchup in Minnesota. The episode opens with a Wednesday night recap covering the Pistons-Magic game, where both Cade Cunningham and Paolo Banchero finished with 45 points in a high-scoring affair, and then pivots to the bigger story, which is the Houston Rockets beating the Los Angeles Lakers on the road in Game 5 without Kevin Durant. Jabari Smith Jr. led Houston with 22 points and seven rebounds while Dorian Finney-Smith turned in a dominant 18-point, 17-rebound performance to help send the series back to Los Angeles with the Rockets holding the edge. For the NBA slate, the guys dig into all three Game 6 matchups. In the Knicks-Hawks game, both Munaf and Dave land on the Atlanta team total over at 105.5 on DraftKings, citing the zigzag theory and CJ McCollum's strong bounce-back case after combining for just 23 points in Games 4 and 5 while going cold from three. Josh Hart's questionable status with a lower back contusion adds more reason to target McCollum over his points total as the top player prop of the evening. In the Celtics-76ers game, Dave targets the Philadelphia team total under, arguing Boston's defensive dominance and near-total statistical control of Game 5 outweighs Philly's one hot shooting night, while Munaf backs the Sixers plus six and a half on the side and points to Joel Embiid's 33-point, 39-minute Game 5 performance as evidence the big man is fully healthy and in command. Dave's player prop is Embiid's combined points, rebounds, and assists over 41 at DraftKings, which Embiid has already cleared in both series games. In the Nuggets-Timberwolves game, Dave offers three angles, including Minnesota in the first half as a live home underdog, the game under 224.5, and Denver minus 150 to win the series rather than the individual game, while Munaf co-signs the under and targets Nikola Jokic's rebounds and assists over 24.5 as a prop rooted in pace, playmaking, and the Timberwolves' depleted front court. Both hosts agree that Spencer Jones and Cam Johnson combining for 38 points in Game 5 on the road is not a reasonable expectation. On the MLB side, Dave's best bet is Bailey Ober recording over 17.5 outs against Toronto, supported by three straight six-inning starts, a career-low 83-pitch effort against Tampa Bay, and Blue Jays hitters batting just .191 against him on the season. Munaf's best bet is Jamal Murray's combined points and assists over 33.5 at minus 107 on DraftKings, a volume play built on Murray's season-long usage and the Nuggets' need for him to shoulder the offensive load in a must-win road game.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Thursday. Griffin Warner returns for Episode 33 of What I Bet with a full Thursday betting card breakdown across Major League Baseball and the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The show opens with a quick look back at a winning Chicago Cubs underdog pick before moving into a busy MLB slate led by Detroit at Atlanta, where Framber Valdez as a plus money underdog against Bryce Elder immediately catches Griffin's attention. The Braves have been dangerous offensively, with Ronald Acuña Jr. heating up and the bullpen holding together better than expected after Raisel Iglesias went on the injured list, but Detroit's matchup still creates value because Griffin likes backing Framber Valdez in underdog roles. From there, the card shifts to St. Louis at Pittsburgh, where Hunter Dobbins faces Paul Skenes and the under becomes the main question if Dobbins can do enough to support the low total. Houston at Baltimore brings Peter Lambert against Chris Bassitt, and Griffin points to Bassitt's struggles, Houston's strong hitting, and the Astros' pitching problems as reasons over nine could be live. Colorado at Cincinnati gives Andrew Abbott another important test against the Rockies, with Griffin noting that Cincinnati has not yet played in the kind of heat that can punish a fly ball pitcher. Washington at the New York Mets becomes a run line discussion, as Griffin is not eager to lay a big price with the Mets and instead finds Washington plus one and a half runs more interesting with Miles Mikolas facing Freddy Peralta. The strongest MLB position comes in Arizona at Milwaukee, where Michael Soroka faces Brandon Woodruff. Griffin likes the Brewers at minus 120, pointing to Woodruff's improved control, Soroka's durability concerns, and Arizona's early body clock spot. Kansas City against the Athletics in Sacramento brings interest in both the Royals and under nine and a half, with Griffin pushing back on the idea that the park should already be priced like peak summer conditions. Toronto at Minnesota closes the baseball portion, with Kevin Gausman against Bailey Ober and the under drawing some attention despite concerns about Minnesota's bullpen. The NHL playoff section begins with Dallas at Minnesota, where Griffin has a live viewing perspective after attending multiple games in the Stars and Wild series. He believes Minnesota has looked like the better team overall and is more drawn to the total than the Dallas side. Edmonton at Anaheim closes the betting breakdown, with the Oilers trying to stay alive and the Ducks holding a 3 to 2 series lead. Griffin expects strong Edmonton fan support in Anaheim, questions whether Connor McDavid is fully healthy, and says Anaheim plus money is tempting after a competitive series. The episode finishes with a Pregame promo code and the official What I Bet best bet, Milwaukee Brewers minus 120 behind Brandon Woodruff. Learn more about your ad choices.

Former MLB catcher and current MLB Network analyst Anthony Recker (3:21) joins Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker to chat about the identity of the 2026 Minnesota Twins, if they're working towards a defensive or offensive-first mindset, Bailey Ober's changeup, why a healthy Mick Abel would help the team's pitching staff, what impresses him the most about Kevin Gausman, and why the Padres have been the biggest surprise to start the year. Then, Blue Jays analyst Joe Siddall joins the guys (26:54) to discuss the adjustments Kazuma Okamoto has made, Brandon Valenzuela's potential, Ernie Clement's ability to cover all areas in his at-bats, Daulton Varsho's strengths and weaknesses, and Jeff Hoffman's usage in low-leverage situations.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Tuesday. Coming off a 2 0 best bet performance, Munaf Manji opened the February 24 2026 episode with confidence, noting the show would again focus on NBA breakdowns and MLB win totals. Dave Essler said when they win their best bets they have been smoking them and that their NBA analysis had been on point. The previous wins included a first half under in the Houston Cougars and Kansas game that cashed easily and a Victor Wembanyama rebounds and assists prop over 13 and a half, which cleared comfortably as Wembanyama finished with 17 rebounds and four assists for 21 combined. Turning to Tuesday's slate, the Knicks visited Cleveland with the Cavaliers laying four and a half and a total of 232 and a half. New York was without Miles McBride and Cleveland without Max Strus, with the Cavs trailing the Knicks by one game in the standings. Essler noted Cleveland was 19 and 11 at home against teams over 500 but the Knicks were 20 and five on the road against teams over 500, showing they elevate versus quality opponents. He called the total big for a Knicks game and emphasized that defense travels, leaning toward New York. Manji added that the Knicks ranked 11th in defensive rating and Cleveland 12th, while both were top five in offensive rating, and targeted Donovan Mitchell over 27 and a half points after games of 31 and 34 points against New York on 25 shot attempts each time. Oklahoma City traveled to Toronto as slight underdogs with a total of 216 and a half but were without Shai Gilgeous Alexander, Jalen Williams and AJ Mitchell, with Alex Caruso and Chet Holmgren questionable. Essler pointed to Oklahoma City's upcoming game in Detroit and said points would be at a premium, preferring the under and mentioning Isaiah Joe over 14 and a half points if roles expanded. Manji supported the under by noting the Thunder ranked first in defensive rating and Toronto sixth, with both teams playing at modest pace and projecting a low scoring game. In Los Angeles, the Magic faced the Lakers after the Lakers scored just 89 points in a 22 point loss to Boston. Orlando was without Franz Wagner and monitoring Jalen Suggs. Essler highlighted that the Lakers ranked 27th in defensive shooting percentage allowed and leaned to Paolo Banchero over 35 and a half points rebounds and assists given the expected usage boost. Manji agreed, noting Banchero was averaging 36 minutes per game in February and had at least six assists in three straight games, including eight in each of his last two. The discussion shifted to MLB futures with the Minnesota Twins listed at 73 and a half wins after finishing 70 and 92 with a minus 95 run differential. Concerns centered on rotation depth behind Joe Ryan and Bailey Ober and overall roster stability, leading Essler to lean under. The Oakland Athletics were set at 75 and a half wins after a 76 win season, and Essler expressed optimism based on their lineup depth and divisional outlook, backing the over. Manji agreed the division presented opportunity. For best bets, Essler selected Missouri plus three and a half at home against Tennessee, citing the Volunteers' turnover issues and Missouri's interior defense, while Manji officially backed Paolo Banchero over 35 and a half PRA to continue the week's momentum.

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner break down MLB Tuesday betting. The latest MLB Tuesday betting preview from RJ Bell's Dream Preview podcast, hosted by Munaf Manji with Griffin Warner, sets the stage for a critical slate of late-August matchups as teams position themselves for the postseason. The episode dives deep into 14 games on the betting board, breaking down pitching matchups, recent team form, and value spots for bettors. Manji and Warner are riding an 83% hot streak on best bets, going 10–2 in their last 12, and their confidence and banter drive an engaging analysis that blends sharp betting insight with humor and strong statistical breakdowns. The show begins with Red Sox vs Orioles, where Lucas Giolito's improved form and Kyle Braddish's return from Tommy John make Boston and the over intriguing plays. The Braves vs Marlins matchup highlights Sandy Alcantara's struggles, with Warner leaning to the home underdog Marlins and the over on 7.5 runs. In Rays vs Guardians, Shane Baz's road splits and Cleveland's sputtering offense create strong value on Tampa Bay plus money. The Yankees vs Nationals discussion centers on Luis Gil's control issues and the Yankees' defensive problems, leading both analysts toward overs rather than trusting either side. Toronto vs Minnesota showcases Chris Bassett's dominant home record against Bailey Ober's brutal losing streak, making the Blue Jays run line their clear best bet of the day. The Mets remain a “fade” team, with Sean Manaea's poor record and Jesus Luzardo's strong history against New York cementing Philadelphia as the sharper side. Brewers vs Diamondbacks is pegged as a potential shootout, with Jacob Misiorowski's walk issues and Arizona's power threats pointing to an over. Royals vs White Sox highlights Chicago's lack of offense despite Martin Pérez's decent outings, pushing Kansas City as the stronger side. Other key breakdowns include Pirates vs Cardinals (leaning over), Angels vs Rangers (under 8.5 tabbed as Warner's best bet despite Corbin's volatility), and Astros vs Rockies (only playable through alternate run lines given Houston's -315 price). Padres vs Mariners positions Dylan Cease as a value underdog against a hittable Luis Castillo, while Cubs vs Giants trends under behind Matthew Boyd's road splits and Justin Verlander's home tendencies. The card wraps with Reds vs Dodgers, where Nick Martinez's inconsistency and Clayton Kershaw's diminished form suggest the over nine runs is the sharper angle. Beyond game analysis, the hosts highlight Pregame.com promotions, including a Beat Greg Shaker college football contest with $1,000 in prizes and a 20% sitewide discount using the promo code SLUGGER20. This synergy between MLB betting insights, college football contests, and broader handicapping content reinforces Pregame's role as a hub for sharp sports betting information. From an editorial perspective, the podcast succeeds by pairing statistical depth with practical wagering advice, appealing both to seasoned bettors and newer fans seeking guidance. The mix of trends, fantasy baseball angles, and promotional tie-ins keeps the content dynamic. My commentary is that the show's value lies not just in picks, but in its process: highlighting faulty lines, identifying exploitable splits, and stressing the importance of context when interpreting numbers. The betting insights are actionable, but the broader lesson is that line shopping, injury context, and market awareness are as crucial as raw stats. Late-August baseball handicapping, with best bets on Blue Jays run line and Angels vs Rangers under anchoring a comprehensive breakdown. As playoff races tighten, bettors get both sharp picks and a reminder of Pregame.com's broader offerings, making it a must-listen for anyone serious about MLB odds, betting strategies, and value plays heading into September.
