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.

Brewers vs. Pirates 7/12/26 MLB Pick Prediction by Ramon Scott
Milwaukee Brewers at Pittsburgh Pirates by Tony T. Matchup Analysis The road starter enters with the stronger run-prevention profile. The road starter owns the stronger strikeout rate. Neither starter has a major control advantage. Ground-ball contact favors the road starter. The road starter has allowed fewer home runs per nine. Jacob Misiorowski has made 18 starts in 18 appearances, while Paul Skenes has made 19 starts in 19 appearances. The comparison puts immediate focus on strike throwing, contact quality and each starter's ability to keep the ball in the park.
Milwaukee Brewers at Pittsburgh Pirates by Tony T. Pitching Matchup Analysis Brandon Sproat enters with an above-average strikeout rate, elevated walk risk, a relatively balanced batted-ball profile. His 5.13 ERA and 1.37 WHIP summarize the results, while the 1.6 home runs allowed per nine innings figure identifies how much damage has come through the air. Braxton Ashcraft counters with a high-end strikeout profile, strong walk suppression, a relatively balanced batted-ball profile. His 3.24 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 1.0 HR/9 provide the baseline for comparing traffic, missing bats and extra-base-hit risk.

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.

It was just supposed to be a regular, full-slate Tuesday in the baseball world. With some really good matchups, ace starters on the mound, and possible historic moments on the horizon, nobody could've expected the madness that would ensue and give us possibly the best day of MLB action we've had all season long. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman recap the wild Tuesday night that featured Shohei Ohtani hitting his 300th career home run, Tyler Tolbert tying a major league record for most hits in consecutive at-bats and Ryan O'Hearn having a three-home-run game. They also talk about Jackson Chourio having some fun in the Milwaukee Brewers' game and James Wood continuing his under-the-radar monster season for the Washington Nationals. Later in the show, Jake and Jordan get into the newest names added as replacements for the 2026 MLB All-Star Game and Ben Rice joining the still-curious field for the Home Run Derby. They also make the case for why Zack Wheeler has a right to be annoyed about not being named to the National League squad before previewing the 2026 MLB Futures Game, which takes place on Sunday. 1:18 – The Opener: Craziest night of 2026 11:15 – Tolbert's historic hits 17:28 – All-Star snubs go off 29:48 – Ohtani hits his 300th HR 35:21 – Around The League: Where will Skubal go? 41:10 – What's a 5-game sweep called? 46:42 – We Need To Talk About: All-Star updates 59:00 – Futures Game preview Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:
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.

If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. My Guest: Clark Lea is the head football coach at Vanderbilt University. He spent 14 years as an assistant coach, including three as defensive coordinator at Notre Dame, before returning to his alma mater in 2021 to inherit a program that had gone winless the year before. He's now the back-to-back SEC Coach of the Year and the architect of one of the great turnarounds in college football history. We recorded this conversation live at our 2026 Learning Leader Growth Summit in Nashville, surrounded by members of the Learning Leader Circle. Key Learnings Clark inherited a Vanderbilt program that went winless the year before. He says he probably screwed up 50% of his first year. The game is how quickly you can pivot. Losing is a powerful teacher. It cleanses and purifies you in ways you don't want but need. You can blame other people, sink into self-pity, or ask: "What am I meant to be learning right now?" Fast-forward 15 years. Look at this moment from a future place of breakthrough. What did you do now that allowed change to occur? "What do I wanna be proud of in the attempt?" Letting go of expected outcomes is what allows you to refine and simplify the way you see the world. Enter the building unguarded. The clearer you are about who you are and what you want, the more obvious it becomes who fits and who doesn't. Different ball, same problems. Clark spends time learning from the Milwaukee Brewers, the Baltimore Ravens, and others. Different industry, same human challenges. Sometimes the different ball is the gift, because you walk in without preconceptions. Knowledge is limiting. Questions illuminate. Once you know something, you stop pursuing it. The questions you ask are the first constraints you put on knowledge. Get past the touchy-feely. Ask: "Tell me what's screwed up here." Problems are always there. Your job is to be willing to look for them. Check the cabinets. Living in a 700-square-foot LA apartment with his wife, Clark would open the cabinets and find them swarming with roaches. The building was fumigated. Two months later, they were back. You can move the pots out and stop checking, or you can keep opening the cabinets. Leaders keep opening the cabinets. Tell people what TO do, not what NOT to do. Rick Neuheisel's lesson. Stop coaching against the bad thing. Manifest what you want to have happen. Hire bunker guys, not logo people. Logos are easy to change. Hire people who'll fight for you in the bunker when it's hard. The Michigan Reset. Before his first game as Notre Dame defensive coordinator, Clark told the team's mental performance coach: "We're gonna be down 50 to nothing at halftime. BK's gonna fire me on the spot. Jerome Bettis and Rocket Ismail will be screaming at me in the tunnel." She asked, "Why don't you trust your players? You think this is all about you?" Have more captains. Clark sits in a room each summer with around 25 players he identifies as leaders. If the people at the leadership table are good, the locker room will be good. The team votes. He draws the line wherever the vote naturally falls. When you try to go opposite of what you're trying to avoid, you eventually become it. Clark spent his first years at Vanderbilt rejecting the program's past. Going opposite. Then he realized it was just attaching his identity to the very thing he was trying to escape. Now he plots toward the vision instead. What got you here won't keep you here. As Clark has grown, the program has grown. Once he understood that, he could sit with a player and listen first, instead of looking to them for affirmation. The mission is winning. Clark scrapped a beautiful, eloquent, unclear mission statement and replaced it with three words. Now every dollar spent, every coach hired, and every player retained is measured against the same lens. Well-better-learned. Vanderbilt's after-action review for every game and every process. What did we do well? What do we need to do better? What did we learn? On Alabama week, Clark's team had the best practice he's ever been a part of. His job each week isn't to tell the team the challenges. It's to give them the plan to win. At halftime against the number one team in the country, he kneeled the team down and said, "It's on a platter for you. Go take it." They beat Alabama. Stewarding 17-to-22-year-olds means helping them decouple their worth from outcomes. Clark cries in front of his team. His kids are around. His wife is there. His dad is at every practice. The players see a man. A human. A son. "An asshole in a Nike Tech Fit is still an asshole." In the NIL era, Clark fights to keep the locker room from splitting into a million-dollar club, a $500K club, a $30K club, and a $0 club. What you drive doesn't make a man. NIL value doesn't make a man. The grounding is the work. Reflection Questions What are you holding too tightly right now? Whose job are you doing because you don't trust them to do it themselves? Which cabinet have you stopped checking because you're tired of finding the same problem? Fast-forward 15 years. Looking back at this moment from a place of breakthrough, what are you meant to be learning right now that you've been avoiding?
