Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Friday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler close out the daily run of Cash That Ticket on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed with a full Friday MLB card and a look ahead to football season. At 0:10 Manji frames the show as the final daily episode for the year, and at 1:18 Essler reflects on a season that swung from hot to cold before settling in the positive, adding that he cashed a client winner the night before. At 1:56 Manji thanks the audience for riding out a near daily schedule and confirms he and Essler will still team up at least twice a week once football season begins. The card opens at 3:27 with the headline matchup of the day, Chris Sale against Jacob Misiorowski as the Braves visit the Brewers with a rare six run total on the board. At 4:10 Essler leans toward Milwaukee for the full game on bullpen strength while still praising Sale, and at 5:13 Manji prefers an under look through five innings paired with the Brewers on the money line. At 7:00 the pair turns to Boston hosting San Francisco, where Sonny Gray opposes Logan Webb. Essler at 7:15 likes the under and the Giants on the run line off Webb's consistency, and Manji at 8:30 backs the under with Gray's strong home and night splits. At 9:31 Freddy Peralta faces Trevor Rogers as the Rays visit Baltimore, with Essler at 9:56 siding with the Orioles given Peralta's recent familiarity with this lineup, and Manji at 11:11 adding Peralta's rough road and night splits. At 12:17 Troy Melton takes on Noah Cameron as the Tigers visit Kansas City, with Essler at 12:41 backing Detroit after Cameron's grueling prior start, and Manji at 13:29 reinforcing the pick with Melton's dominant road numbers. At 15:07 Nick Lodolo opposes Eduardo Rodriguez in Cincinnati and Arizona, a matchup both hosts admit they rarely get right, with Essler at 15:10 wary of laying a heavy price on Rodriguez and Manji at 17:12 flagging fatigue after a heavy recent workload. At 18:49 Matthew Boyd and the Cubs visit Emerson Hancock and the Mariners, with Essler at 19:16 siding with Seattle's bullpen and Manji at 20:58 eyeing a Cubs team total angle instead. Essler at 22:49 races through the rest of the slate, touching on Washington, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Bubba Chandler and the Pirates, Reid Detmers and MacKenzie Gore in the Angels and Rangers game, a wary look at Hayden Wesneski and the Astros, and a Twins and Padres line that has moved firmly toward Minnesota's Connor Prielipp despite public tickets piling onto San Diego's Randy Vasquez. With the baseball card finished, Essler at 26:58 names the Rams over eleven and a half wins as his favorite NFL win total, pointing to a loaded roster and head coach Sean McVay, while Manji at 28:24 counters with the Vikings over eight and a half, betting on a bounce back year from Kyler Murray under Kevin O'Connell and a friendly home schedule. On the under side, Essler at 30:23 fades the Packers over a suspect secondary and a difficult slate, and Manji at 33:07 takes the Eagles under ten and a half, citing another new offensive coordinator working with Jalen Hurts. The season's final best bets arrive late, with Essler at 37:14 backing the Blue Jays to score over two and a half runs against Cam Schlittler and the Yankees, and Manji at 38:30 closing the year with the Tigers on the money line behind Melton against Cameron and the Royals. Before signing off at 43:07, the hosts preview a busy football stretch ahead, including a new Dream Pod with RJ and a season long props pod with Sleepy, and Manji thanks the show's record keeper, Kelvin, for another season of tracking results.

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.

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.

Una reflexión sobre los retos pendientes para construir espacios donde el respeto, la diversidad y la igualdad de oportunidades sean parte del juego.
The Freddy Peralta trade has failed, and the Mets may now face the humiliating possibility of sending him straight back to Milwaukee. Evan Roberts argues that New York must ignore the awful optics and accept the best available return, even if it comes from the Brewers, while questions grow about whether David Stearns can be trusted to clean up the mess. Evan also predicts Peralta will deliver his best start as a Met in his emotional return to Milwaukee, potentially making it his final appearance with New York. Then the conversation turns to the most Mets possibility imaginable: trading Peralta just days before fans are scheduled to receive his bobblehead at Citi Field.
Cuando pensamos en un Mundial hablamos de goles, estadios y aficionados, pero detrás del espectáculo existe otra competencia silenciosa: la del cumplimiento de reglas, la transparencia y la seguridad. Hoy vamos a hablar de compliance en el Mundial 2026 y de cómo temas como la anticorrupción, la protección de datos, los patrocinios, los derechos comerciales y la seguridad también se juegan fuera de la cancha.

Según el informe del Grupo de Expertos en Derechos Humanos de la ONU sobre Nicaragua, la represión es peor para las mujeres y los miembros de la comunidad LGBT. Unas 300 personas murieron, cientos resultaron heridas y cientos de miles fueron forzadas al exilio tras las manifestaciones antigubernamentales de 2018, que el gobierno denunció como un intento de golpe de Estado patrocinado por Washington. En los últimos años, Managua ha cerrado más de 300 asociaciones feministas y en defensa LGBT. El informe realizado por el grupo de expertos en derechos humanos de Naciones Unidas sobre Nicaragua constata que, aunque la represión es por razones políticas, el gobierno usa el género como instrumento de control, humillación y silenciamiento de opositores. Lo explica para RFI Ariela Peralta, una de las expertas del equipo de la ONU: "A mí me parece que hay 2 puntos que son esenciales, uno es el reprimir. a las mujeres activistas o las mujeres con un alto perfil que lideraban una agenda de género o lideraban organizaciones de derechos humanos o con una agenda política. Estas mujeres, además de presentar un liderazgo, un discurso, una posición que defiende derechos de las mujeres, estas mujeres también desafiaron un rol predominante que el gobierno de Ortega y Murillo sostienen en cómo han configurado los estereotipos de género y cómo han modificado normas". Para el gobierno de Nicaragua, las mujeres que lideraron las protestas en 2018 son presentadas como enemigas del pueblo y hay detenciones arbitrarias, violencia física, tortura e incluso violaciones. "Nosotros ponemos textualmente testimonios de personas que fueron sometidas a amenazas de violación, desnudez forzada, acoso sexual y estas prácticas buscaron humillar y castigar. Por su participación política, por un lado, o por apartarse de roles tradicionales" dice Peralta en RFI. En los últimos años, el Gobierno de Ortega ha cerrado más de 300 asociaciones feministas y en defensa de los colectivos LGBT, eliminando así los espacios de protección a estas personas. "Muchas de estas organziaciones brindaban servicios legales, psicosociales, comunitarios, de salud sexual, reproductiva. Y esto afecta de manera desproporcionada a las mujeres, las niñas o las personas del colectivo LGBTIQ" dice Peralta. Ortega, de 80 años y con casi dos décadas en el poder, y Murillo, acusan a los organismos internacionales de "injerencistas" y "mentirosos", y a sus opositores de haber intentado derrocarlos. De acuerdo con oenegés y medios críticos, la represión ha dejado presos políticos y una diáspora en Costa Rica, Estados Unidos y España, que incluye unos 400 activistas, intelectuales, religiosos y periodistas despojados de nacionalidad y bienes, acusados de "traición a la patria".
