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 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.

The fantasy landscape is bracing for impact as dominant MVP frontrunner Aaron Judge remains entirely shut down from physical activity, stalling his recovery timeline indefinitely. Corey Pieper breaks down a high-stakes pitching landscape, devastating long-term prospect injuries, a seismic trade market update, and the latest FanDuel Bet of the Day. Roster managers face massive late-season fallout as Aaron Judge remains unable to resume baseball activities, Christian Walker exits early with acute hip tightness, and dynamic infielder Jeremy Pena suffers yet another frustrating physical setback. The pitching front is equally turbulent as the Chicago Cubs aggressively trade for right-hander Aaron Civale, the high-octane duo of Mick Abel and David Festa are both declared out for the season, Casey Mize exits his latest start early, and JoJo Romero lands on the injured list. Fortunately, reinforcement is on the horizon with Jameson Taillon's return imminent, Ranger Suarez tracking to be activated tomorrow, and Ronel Blanco scheduled to pitch Monday, though managers must monitor Will Smith's recurring neck issues, Samuel Basallo handling right shoulder discomfort, Shohei Ohtani being withheld from the mound, Corbin Carroll's daily status, and Blaze Alexander's long-term absence with a broken hand. An absolutely loaded performance slate features a masterclass on the bump and offensive explosions. Chris Sale fired seven dominant frames of zero-earned, two-hit ball with six strikeouts, Gerrit Cole struck out eight across six high-quality frames, and Jake Bennett, Pete Lambert, Brady Singer, Landen Roupp, Jared Jones, Brandon Pfaadt, Tarik Skubal, JT Ginn, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Paul Skenes, Shota Imanaga, Hunter Greene, and Logan Gilbert all logged stellar outings, while Troy Melton dueled Reid Detmers, Shane Bieber battled Davis Martin, Sean Burke matched up with Trey Yesavage, and Eury Perez went head-to-head with Robert Gasser. At the plate, Trea Turner and Fernando Tatis Jr. both went completely electric by blasting a home run and swiping a bag on Saturday, Jose Trevino launched two home runs, and huge performances rolled in from Junior Caminero, Sam Antonacci, Drake Baldwin, Ryan Jeffers, Elly De La Cruz, Spencer Steer, Andres Chaparro, Curtis Mead, Kody Clemens, Wilyer Abreu, Shane Drohan, Spencer Torkelson, Hunter Goodman, Jackson Merrill, Nolan McLean, Austin Riley, Francisco Lindor, Esmerlyn Valdez, Ty France, and Tyler Stephenson. Conversely, Christian Walker's night was cut short, Jonathan Aranda bottomed out with an 0-for-7 doubleheader collar, and Griffin Jax, Gage Jump, Rhett Lowder, Ian Seymour, Jake Bauers, Eduardo Rodriguez, Cam Schlittler, Noah Cameron, Zebby Matthews, and Munetaka Murakami all landed in the duds column. Our weekly Waiver Wire segment delivers deep-dive evaluation on priority targets available in more than 60% of leagues, isolating the long-term roster utility of Caleb Durbin, AJ Ewing, Ryan Jeffers, Bryce Eldridge, Garrett Mitchell, Shane Drohan, Roki Sasaki, and Kade Anderson.

Cincinnati Reds at Colorado Rockies by Tony T. This matchup pairs Rhett Lowder, a right-hander, against Tomoyuki Sugano, a right-hander. Rhett Lowder enters with a 4.91 ERA and 1.54 WHIP across 16 appearances and 13 starts, while Tomoyuki Sugano owns a 4.80 ERA and 1.32 WHIP through 16 appearances and 16 starts. The comparison below separates strikeout, walk, ground-ball and home-run prevention rates so bettors can evaluate the shape of each starter's performance without reducing the matchup to ERA alone.
Craig Sandlin and Greg Kuffner break down the Cincinnati Reds loss to the Baltimore Orioles in Hunter Greene's 2026 debut on Saturday.

This week on the pod, we breakdown the GOOD week that was for the Cincinnati Reds! We're worried about Nick Lodolo and Rhett Lowder but we aren't worried about Chase Burns. The bullpen held up its end of the bargain but is it sustainable? Sal Stewart bat came back to life and we're starting to think we know what Matt McLain is right now. Also, we're so excited that Elly is so close to being back but we wonder who will get sent down in his place. The show is brought to you by Cincy Light, the spirit of Cincinnati.

This week on the pod, we had a critical audio error and it doesn't exactly sound it's best. But, we power through and talk about how our Cincinnati Reds FINALLY played baseball in 2026. We cover the boys who hurled on Saturday and who might have gotten a leg up on that fifth spot in the rotation, Chase Burns or Rhett Lowder. We also talk about the Hunter Greene “subtweet” interview. We have the introduction of ABS and how it could possibly help Elly De La Cruz. We also talk about the Tony Clark resignation, why it happened and what it means for the future of the CBA. Lastly, we cover the “war chest” and how the owners truly don't care about the fans or the players. The show is always brought to you by Cincy Light, the flavor of Cincinnati.

Nick Kirby breaks down the biggest storylines from Cincinnati Reds Spring Training in Goodyear as Terry Francona sets the tone with a clear message: “It's time.” Hear the latest from Francona, including his responsibility for managing Elly De La Cruz's workload in 2026, why Elly won't play 162 games this season, and how the young superstar is entering camp stronger and more confident. Elly is reportedly up to 217 pounds — nearly 15 pounds heavier than last year — and feeling ready for big expectations. Nick also dives into standout performances from camp, including Chase Burns dominating live BP with three strikeouts and a groundout. Burns discusses major improvements to his fastball and curveball and is set to throw a couple of innings in the Reds' Spring Training opener against the Cleveland Guardians. The competition for the final rotation spot heats up, while Nick Lodolo shares why he believes the Reds can have one of the best starting rotations in baseball. Plus, updates on Rhett Lowder and Brandon Williamson's innings management after missing significant time. Matt McLain's maturity and approach at the plate have impressed Francona, who views him as the ideal No. 2 hitter. Will Benson's spring is off to a much different start compared to last year. Tyler Callihan is fully cleared and focusing on second base and left field after last season's injury. Sal Stewart is making noise this spring, working primarily at first and second base while openly chasing NL Rookie of the Year honors. Stewart has been studying first base defense and could see time at multiple infield spots as roster construction takes shape. Nick also covers updates on Edwin Arroyo, who expects more power in 2026 with his shoulder surgery behind him, and Eugenio Suárez's strong early impression in camp, including praise for Arroyo's potential. The two could face off in the World Baseball Classic. Plus: Francona's thoughts on veteran NRI Nathaniel Lowe and roster construction Pierce Johnson on bringing playoff experience to the bullpen TJ Friedl on leading off under Francona Prospect updates, including praise for Rodriguez and Cam Collier What to expect from the Reds' Spring Training opener and how to watch RedsTV Nick also previews upcoming coverage, including daily recaps after every Spring Training game, live postgame shows, and a full breakdown of how fans can watch RedsTV all season long.

Welcome to Episode 109 of Tablesetters — a live October edition packed with drama, heartbreak, and the pulse of postseason baseball. Devin and Steve were on-air during the crucial moments of Game 5 between the Tigers and Mariners, breaking down the action in real time while unpacking a wild week across the baseball world. The headlines are brutal but fascinating: The Blue Jays ended the Yankees' season with a decisive 3–1 ALDS victory, exposing every flaw in New York's October formula and reigniting the debate about whether stability has become stagnation in the Bronx. Aaron Judge did everything possible — a batting title, 53 home runs, MVP-level brilliance — but Toronto's contact-first offense proved too balanced, too relentless, and maybe even too modern for the Yankees' aging approach. Over in Los Angeles, the Phillies' season ended in stunning fashion, on a throw that sailed high and sealed their fate. The Dodgers moved on — again — with calm precision, behind Tyler Glasnow's dominance, Roki Sasaki's breakout, and the quiet intensity of Shohei Ohtani's first postseason run in Dodger Blue. The dynasty question looms: is this simply sustained excellence, or has L.A. become the model every franchise is now chasing? Meanwhile, in Arizona, the next generation is already announcing itself. Prospects like Sebastian Walcott, Rhett Lowder, and others are redefining the future in the Arizona Fall League, each representing a story of either precocious dominance or long-awaited redemption. The desert has rarely felt this alive — fastballs touching 102, teenagers owning at-bats, and front offices taking notes on baseball's evolution in real time. From postseason heartbreak to developmental rebirth, Episode 109 covers it all — live reactions, tactical breakdowns, and raw emotion from a night that had everything October baseball can offer.
MLB Pipeline prospect analyst and reporter Jim Callis returns to the Jack Vita Show, to preview the 2025 Arizona Fall League. Jim has been covering prospects for over 35 years. In today's episode, he shares some stories from previous years at the Arizona Fall League. He gives a quick rundown of what fans can expect from AFL, and why they should follow along online, and make a trip to Arizona for the AFL experience. This is Jack's third year on-scene at the Arizona Fall League. Last year, he provided coverage of Philadelphia Phillies top pitching prospect Andrew Painter for The Philadelphia Inquirer. This year, he plans to pick up freelance work for other outlets, covering prospects participating in AFL. The Fall League has become a favorite for Jack, and he shares why it's one of the best hidden gems in sports. Jim provides a look at what prospects fans should keep an eye on in the Arizona Fall League this year. This year's AFL crop features eleven players from MLB Pipeline's Top 100 prospects list: Kevin McGonigle (no. 2), Sebastian Walcott (no. 6), Josue De Paula (no. 13), Braden Montgomery (no. 35), Alfredo Duno (no. 48), Charlie Condon (no. 61), Blake Mitchell (no. 62), Jonny Farmelo (no. 75), Rhett Lowder, (no. 80), Hagen Smith (no. 88) and Cam Collier (no. 94).
