Welcome to the L spread part. I'm the host Take a text on Brooklyn and the truck that you're hearing in the background What's about all I can attainment FGM designs we outside even when we get in the building? We are outside what's going on with you? I'm excited.

I'm trying to really keep a really mellow even tone But I'm excited. I'm pumped today is the opening day of The major league baseball and if you know like I know Now it was a yesterday by a contemporary that every time a new sport comes around for sports betters and say a pandy cappers You know this boy is gonna go. It's gonna be my years and so forth. You know what?

There's a lot of that that gets it. However, let's not let that deter us from the focus on the plane We just to rip this to shreds. Let's say focus the state vigilant. Let's make it happen.

It's our time. All right, all right Let's go. All right, so let's take a look at the slate Maybe bring those people down a little bit man. I thought the bills didn't mean that is the only strikes be smoking It's another one of the bills that are right here too.

It's a cutter. It's one of my joints right here. Anyway, here Here's I'll be gonna get into it. I'm just a little excited and I just want to get my mind in the right frame Before we get this then kick off We're gonna take a look we're gonna take a look at see what's changed what's called response from me.

Hey, yo And you still got NCAA basketball out there and of course MLB two games on the MLB MLB MLB NBA National Basketball Association You got two games on that slate today I saw something in baseball today that I really like that. I'm thinking up giving a shot and it's a long season There's 162 games right 162 games 162 right and that's just regular season. All right, so let's get to the focus I remember four minutes and let's get to it. That's the first game But I'm seeing a boy right now is the Atlanta Braves visiting the Washington Nationals and Braves open up I find it's 225 and that's in that minus two 50 versus the Nationals who are the two oh five four the money line and I I got to open my phone and take a look at some kids again.

It's the key of y'all the sense of what's happening and what's going on That would get clarity Yeah Brooklyn represent y'all Brooklyn represent y'all. I'm mad punk. I'm excited. It's this time.

We got to get the ship right it Oh, and you're speaking of the NBA. You got bossy number walkie. I walkie the two point favorite yesterday I think he said a bunch of people and I just go out of the trip girl I don't like him that they just because of that get a trip there yesterday all this next to stuff So we might not get out of this game against Boston today Boston's and tough Boston on the road opening the baseball They said a door interesting play there interesting interesting interesting interesting. Anyway, we got the pelicans also visiting Then but nuggets never nuggets have been a pretty solid team this year However, this is an interesting game joke if he doesn't play because of this one alright I'm definitely giving this one to the perfect if joke doesn't play But now to the MLB.

Let's get to it. Let's get to it. Let's make sure you're not trying to line us up real quick with this But this uh, yeah, exactly. All right, so yeah, we're talking about the Atlanta against Washington Nationals right the Braves Braves coming out with Reed on the Mount Max Reed against uh Patrick Corbin and My lean would be the free, you know, so take that as you're made All right now these are again.

I gotta give a disclaimer. These are my thoughts and I am sharing them with you and hopes that they assist you or At least that I provide you with content and that gives you some insights to choose whether or not to go with what I like or to To go with what I like right because I could be a hundred percent wrong for example I just watched the video of one of the best in the world at what they do in regards to handicapping talk about why they like the particular side Also mention that some people were opposed to what they like what they shared what they like right and we like actually Um didn't I win? Okay, so it happens. All right, just want to put that out this guy to it.

All right, all right Ultimately, you punch in the ticket. All right, so let's punch us. Let's connect on more punches Then we then then the most right and we should be all right There's more to it than that. Of course money management bank role management day role management tracking just just being disciplined You know, it is a lot to it and even more to within that so Let's get to the one because we want to clap in and then we rush into the window to get these ball games All right, so talk about Atlanta and Washington you got Sam Fran in a league action early Sam Fran shines against the Yankees now member Sam Fran is originally a New York team So this is like it's making me think like yesterday in the basketball game.

You had the under big under the next game And I was on it under next versus Miami heat, right? He ran in New York side of town But I'm like it's old school. So he's got me thinking a real low scoring game offer it You got logan by the man who was a solid pitcher very good top tier type of guy and get a call who of course is an elite type of power He's on he's on all right. I'm looking at that line now in a more It has changed from one of us look at it.

Wait, let me refresh this screen here because I'm seeing there's not what I'm saying here And I just want to make sure I'm saying here what I'm supposed to be seeing here. All right. Now. Let's get it clear.

All right Now, okay, so we are seeing what we are supposed to see in that regard. Yankees opened up that minus 175 minus 172 of the Giants Open up at 135 now a plus 144. I lean seven Yankees in this one. Don't go play in Atlanta and Washington game, but if I did have to take a plate, I would go with Atlanta.

So right now Atlanta Yankees I'm just gonna do the list. I'm not gonna do what crazy 20 people are late You know, I'm most likely not because I don't want to set my mind off into that into that realm, right? Because for me, it's it's not really scalable and teachable and workable long term, right? I'm a straight action Jackson kind of got so for me.

I like to put in a straight place So if you're not hip to like straight betting Then you may want to tap in and tune in to some of the other guys out here who are good What are they doing out great? I put in the parlays or you can check the information that I have here and parlayed on your home I don't even suggest that you do any of those things. What if you decide to do so when you come up? That's good.

Don't come up. Then that's good too because you learn and you want to learn from other people mistakes more so than your own You know, and I'll leave that there for you to do dishes quick. All right food for thought Yes indeed. So you got the Oreos at Boston Oreos over that plus 105 Oreos of Baltimore and Boston versus the red Sox red Sox on minus 130 And I kind of like the way I kind of like the red Sox here in spite as well There's another thing where this market just opened up.

So I'm kind of skeptical about diving and giving in that title round, right? Yeah, you got Brewers Cubs the Brewers the road favorite Versus the Cubs who've been solid in the preseason. They haven't they weren't like amazing But they were winning some key games kind of like a man can strum and get the backup that he needs in order to succeed That seems like strum and doesn't get any help. That's the that's the aura I'm in check the stats to see if he really you know that was a factor or not so much last year But I kind of know when he was with the Mets that he would get your life all the time And he's not a bad player bad pitcher and on the other side of that mound You got called in burns for the best to do it.

So that's that and in the bright game You got Kyle Gibson starting for Baltimore Orioles. I may be a fresh stuff in You got Cory clupa ex Yankee starting for Boston. Native Albie is not a second man over In Texas behind check up the ground. We'll talk about later And so Boston's pitching status looking a little shaky, baby.

See how many of y'all got so you know I'll be a little bit on Boston body You know what I'm saying? So Yeah, let's continue on though You got Detroit against the race Detroit Tigers against the Tampa Bay Rays Detroit Tigers open at a 160 dog Now sitting at 190 to raise over the negative 220 now sitting at my mind is 230 Yeah Tampa Bay is bringing up shame and cleaning hands about the game against Eduardo Rio The types Tigers are going to be a young exciting team at some point and the race had an off year in my opinion kind of sort And I think they'll be back to blood and they start now with shame and cleaning hand to get the ball rolling shiggle Mac I only try to throw some more commercials. We ain't trying to get all that guys Let's go back when I hear that. I was trying to make me some more different bills.

I mean bills Let's go I guess I don't want to be bill stick on my home. I'm really wrong We tried to go find the trucks on soundcloud man. Tap into the soundcloud bills to dig La B. I.

L. L. Z. D.

D. I. G. G.

G. L. R Put it that heat, man. Don't be afraid to support the independent artists artists You know me?

I suppose you want to go to Philadelphia Phillies I almost said 76 it's gonna basketball won't Philadelphia set Philadelphia Phillies at the Texas Rangers airing all the members Is Jacob the ground starting off the year with Texas now? I'm on the girl Martin Perez took that part, right? So I'm like why he's not starting the first game, but hey They got to grab up there. Hey, they're gonna do your thing.

Wait, what's it? Texas Rangers? They look like a strong play today. I might have to take them over with Billy Um, that's just as I was looking at my pain at the moment.

We'll figure it out. We'll get to it You know, I just want to put that out there. What's happening so you can get an idea for yourself It's maybe you see something maybe you know something maybe that I don't right. Maybe you got to take the ground starts again Never want to get an open seat.

I don't know how to look all that up But it's just certain wants a certain things that could factor into how today plays out that that makes all the difference having that slight edge is key So whatever that is for you and use it. Let's get to it. Do it. I'll continue on you got Pittsburgh at Cincinnati Mitch Keller Herb Green I believe that's the name And uh, that line has moved a little bit.

Let's take a look at that line Okay, now we still have the same one. It's right here. I saw the raise up at minus one forty five favorite I said I'm minus one thirty six two pirates started out plus one fifteen hours and plus one six and these lines I'm looking at the new lines are on fan tool Raise with green on the man. It's gonna be tough But I don't know because pirates have always been kind of that stickler, you know, they win those sticky ends So it's pretty interesting this one, but I'm leaning towards Cincinnati.

I'm not gonna hold you Not going to hold you on that one I got Toronto Blue Jays visiting the St. Louis Cardinals Alex Miller versus Michael Locust Mick Collis, right? I don't understand the wrong name for like a year two years now Like Mick Collis, my stash man. That's why I call him I'll be safe as much as I don't know what to tell you what My stash man is tough and that line is sitting at Well, it opened at me plus 100 for Toronto Now, am I seeing a Toronto's a favorite but let's take a look at this one more clarity One more game Blue Jays said that minus 120 I'm looking for that game on my sheet Okay, I found that Yeah, so Toronto's minus 120 singles now the dog that plus 102 Interesting.

So I wonder what they're expecting out of my note. Oh, he wasn't on start last year. I shouldn't say He definitely wasn't those my stash man. Interesting that the That the line for like very interesting.

Where's the paper? Where's the paper? Where's the paper? Spirit money last month.

Where's the paper? Where is the paper? Yeah, okay. Interesting.

Look interesting Look, I let's keep it moving up a couple more games on the slate to go over Minnesota Twins at the Kansas City Royals Pablo Lopez against that green key I'm not a green key kind of guy Just want to put that out there, right? Open that plus 120 now say that plus 126 the twins open that plus probably minus 150 now say that minus 148 Yeah, I would have to slide with Lopez Lopez and I'm not mistaken came over from the Marlins Did he not come up from the modeling? Yes, he did. He was all right.

He's a solid pitcher Now he's getting a chance to be the ace or at least the opening big starter with the twins So I believe have some good pitching. So that's interesting Not matter that at all I should got the Chicago White Sox playing against their Houston Astros the former champions Right or the reigning champions, right? So you got the White Sox open that plus 135 now say that plus 136 Astros opened at minus 175 now say that minus 162 Might have to go With my guys in them right when the windy city because them guys might be getting brain Like a couple of my guys mentioned some stuff. Yeah, he said my god, man Bankle, man He mentioned some to me or to a woman that I was in and it makes sense.

I'm looking at the line and it's like Into that state. So that might be a shot. You might get a white Sox player. I'm moving At least maybe I'm a spread right Or the run line as we say in baseball Okay, Colorado Rockies at the San Diego Padres.

Colorado Rockies get coming out with you. You're on Marquez Blake Snell on the mountain for the Padres. I called Blake scale JZ Rockefeller Or the rock under the snail because he's one of the same thing as JZ and his eyes. He looks sleepy like he worked in the music industry Oh, hi, sorry.

All right. So I called Blake Snell. I didn't you know Blake It was the Blake that was down with Rockefeller and Snell's on the rock. So he's like under the rock like there is a rock anyway Uh, so those guys open that minus two or five of the Padres, right?

And that isn't a minus two ten. Uh, Rocky's open at plus one fifty seven plus one seventy five on the fan doozy So there it's a how you may I particularly will lead to what the home team now Now you got Schokane and the angels while saying to the sources Oakland California match up open athletics bringing out Mueller It's a cow Mueller. I believe I think it's cow Mueller. I think he's a type of new or pitcher The athletics open at plus one seventy five at home that it plus one ninety four angels open at minus two thirty Probably minus two forty nine.

That's two thirty five My opinion here. I'm thinking the angels get this in a major way. Okay, but there's one caveat And that is that the Americans lost against old tines Strikeout of trout in the world baseball classic How much of a factor is this it may be no factor at all. However, I do think that there's gonna be some smoke Adletani because of this Last matchup.

So yeah, that's how I'm coming like I'm really not rushing to bet the angels today again That smoke could be real right americans could take some offense to like, you know, we lost it so tiny We couldn't take this one. Just one. He's by just stuttering. Oh, he's still drizzles operation You know, so that's just a trend or a narrative rather that crosses my my thought pattern Okay, let's get back to him and be like, what's up?

Only couple of games left on the floor madness has been longer. Maybe it's maybe one or two game that most I'd be Cleveland and Seattle shame be against Louis Castillo. Whoa big big for the Cleveland opened up even money 90 minus one oh two man. It's open at minus one 29 say that minus one 60 That's a tough call.

I can't really fun. I can't really Just look at the line. I'm like, yeah, that's what it is And you got the diamondbacks bring up that gallon I was on the back against the Los Angeles. I just got who do you guys laser me?

Right that line right there is a minus one 75 of the Dodgers to minus one 84 now and open a line for V Diamondbacks is plus one 35 now. So that's that those are the lines those are what we have there's not much information I'll be sharing the pictures, you know, there are there are there are there's a lot of pictures that are outside of there a lot of good ones You know, there's a couple of spots that I see and a couple of things that I'm gonna look a little bit more into for the day But we just wanted to get the world out and baseball is back And it's gonna be a lot of focus on it. Maybe we should look Outside of baseball. That's what you might find that big bag outside of the sport of baseball.

You know what I mean? I mean inside is the sport is definitely gonna be a play Definitely gonna find a place. I'm just looking at a couple of reasons to To see what's shaking outside of the major round It's happening in the NCAA to the UAV against North Texas and NIT action UAV is a one and a half point favorite on the road or as the away team and then neutral site And uh, so yeah, you got that happening and then the NBA Let's go back to the NBA real quick and take a quick quick quick quick. We slide all right again It's Boston open at three and a half point dog 92 and a half point dogs against Milwaukee and the pelicans nine point dog Now it's six and a half point dog against Denver as a coach joking those guys may or may not like so who are the wears the Where's the dog money in baseball today?

What dogs do I like today? Do I like Washington? No, but do I like San Fran? Longin on the mountain?

Not really Okay, so here's a couple of dogs that I like that could be of some value travel cups Philadelphia Phillies Miami Marlins Toronto Blue Jays open A's And Clevelandians those are my top dogs at the day Brooklyn Tech's daily spread podcast. Hope you had the best day ever baseball is back Yeah, we're not giving you rules. Just clues to make these moves
