Betting the 2022 YellaWood 500 at Talladega Superspeedway
We all know that you don't mess with Texas. But wow. Sunday's 500 miles fought hard against several playoff teams, burying the #20 & #48 at the bottom of the heap. Plus William Byron's self-inflicted 25-point penalty submarined the #24 team's chance to advance. What a way to kick off…

New week, new round of the NASCAR Playoffs! The Round of 12 fires up this afternoon with the 2022 AutoTrader Automotive 500 at Texas Motor Speedway. 500 miles on the lone "vanilla" track of the round calls for sustained speed and handling over the long haul. You better believe the…

The 2022 AutoTrader EchoPark Automotive 500 at Texas Motor Speedway: Early Handicapping
Plenty of NASCAR Cup Series teams' prospects took an abrupt turn for the worse at the Bristol Night Race. Unfortunately, I did not get the memo on Ford's tire pressure gamble that snagged our Joey Logano Top 10 bid late in the race - let alone the early blowout that…

The 2022 Bristol Night Race (9/17/2022)
Nighttime is the right time in my old stomping grounds of East Tennessee. There are few better ways to eliminate four drivers from the playoffs than with one of the toughest tracks in NASCAR: Bristol Motor Speedway. And you know the 2022 Bristol Night Race is going crush some dreams.…

The 2022 Bristol Night Race: Early Handicapping (9/17/2022)
Seems like there might be a little something bubbling in the 23XI organization after their season sweep at Kansas Speedway. Kurt's W in the spring followed up by Bubba's statement victory on Sunday says a lot about the trajectory of that organization. As for me, 2-1 seems to be the…

With the Bristol Night Race on deck, the field of 16 Championship hopefuls approaches the 2022 Hollywood Casino 400 as a prime opportunity to take the checkered flag and advance to the Round of 12.

We knew the Southern 500 was going to chew some cars up and spit them out. But wow did Sunday night's test of stamina consume some of the best teams in the Cup Series. Kevin Harvick's late charge failed in an unforeseen fiery end while mechanical issues rejected the bids…

It sure is good to have practice and qualifying back to help finalize this week's betting card. Saturday's action at Darlington shed some light on likely contenders and, of course, pretenders. In the good news department, Mother Nature appears to be in a favorable mood as the sun goes down…

The 2022 Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway – Early Handicapping (9/4/2022)
Not getting Daytona under the lights last weekend was a damn shame, but that's on Mother Nature. I will say that the action in the Sunday morning into the late afternoon delayed race had my heart rate up for way too long. My eight matchup bets on the final regular…

What more can you say about Kevin Harvick's back-to-back dubs? Ms. JJ's 2022 Season Championship future bet on Happy Harvick is officially off of life support. Kudos to her being live in the postseason and in keeping me humble despite delivering back-to-back 3-0 matchup winners after Richmond played out nicely.…

Turn 1 debacles and the frenzied overtime restart combined to wreak havoc on some betting cards, while leaving others victorious. Daniel Suarez getting knocked out in that final sequence hurt…

MLB Morning Breakdown for 8-6-2022
Sometimes the best laid plans get crushed by reality. As for Triston McKenzie's curveball Tuesday night, Arizona watched it miss the strike zone time and time again, pouncing on the inevitable fastball. An ugly swing-and-miss on my part. But the MLB Morning Breakdown for 8-6-2022 rolls on with a pair…

Saturday's look at Mitch Keller's sinker paid some dividends in an interesting way to play what turned out to be a pitchers' duel in Pittsburgh. Today we stay focused on starting pitching with young starting pitchers who are steadily moving forward in their major league career progressions. So let's head…

The 2022 Verizon 200 at The Indy Road Course (7/31/2022)
What else can you say about last week's battle at Pocono? Let alone the course of events that shook out a couple hours after Denny Hamlin completed his burnout and popped his bottle of bubbly. Just another week on the Cup Series circuit, right? When it comes to the on-track…

MLB Morning Breakdown for 7-30-2022
Here I am on the fence once again. Gotta admit that I like writing about the tricky handicaps more than the ones that carry higher conviction though. Thursday's edition highlighted an unsung starting pitcher against one of the more prolific lineups in the league. Now the MLB Morning Breakdown for…

MLB Morning Breakdown for 7-28-2022
Today's short MLB slate left more questions than answers as far as I'm concerned. Can Philly's bats support Wheeler as a 2/1 favorite? Will the Red Sox get out of their own way for a change? And the most interesting question among Thursday's games will be answered in the Bronx…

The 2022 M&Ms Fan Appreciation 400 at Pocono Raceway (7/24/2022)

MLB Morning Breakdown for 7-12-2022
The MLB Morning Breakdown for 7-12-2022 comes at you after a disappointing - yet not surprising - failure to produce runs in Chicago. It sure seemed like a good idea at the time...what more can I say? And in full disclosure, today's Solo Shot does not have my money behind…
July 12, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 7-10-2022
All I can say about yesterday's handicap is that I am thanking my lucky stars for Josh Naylor being in the lineup. Not that he made a huge impact in the Guardians' blowout victory as much as he was my trigger point to play the over. More importantly, Naylor's availability…

MLB Morning Breakdown for 6-18-2022
JJ@BC The MLB Morning Breakdown for 6-18-2022 drops with a pair of handicaps on this windy Saturday morning. Despite staying ahead of the market since my last post on June 14th, I gave some back to the gambling gods this week after returning from vacation (holy LOB, Boston!). Not to…
June 18, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 6-14-2022
JJ@BC It might have been shaky here and there, but coming home to sweat a first 5 inning under ended up being the right move. Legitimate threats by each team in the early innings fortunately resulted in a 1-1 tie after the 5th, making my half-unit dip back into the…
June 14, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 6-13-2022
JJ@BC As great as vacation can be - which last week's trip to the Azores certainly was - there's no place like home. Especially when you've spent a week in a nation that blocks access to gambling websites! The things we do to get away, right? Despite being sleep deprived…

MLB Handicapping Update with Wager Rager
JJ@BC We've made it just about two months into the 2022 MLB season with more victories than battle scars. That's testament to a ton of offseason prep, grinding through daily handicapping, and undoubtedly a friendly kiss from Lady Luck. I jumped on a pod with D-Nice, braintrust of the Wager…

MLB Morning Breakdown for 5-28-2022
JJ@BC With just one week left before leaving the country, it's almost like I'm in one of those money booths with cash swirling around. How much can I grab before the thing shuts off and my 10-day hiatus kicks in? While I joke, my MLB betting has maintained a positive…

MLB Morning Breakdown for 5-25-2022: Triple Play
JJ@BC Monday's extra-innings nail biter in St. Louis somehow, some way kept the positive momentum rolling. It rolled right into...a day off from handicapping yesterday. That break from betting on baseball left me plenty of time to gear up for a special three man production to cover today's action. The…
May 25, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 5-23-2022
JJ@BC Talk about one hell of an "engaging" Sunday on the diamonds. And somehow I made it out the other side unscathed. A couple serious sweats in the 5th inning of both first 5 innings positions and a Coors Field under resulted in one near-miss push and three half-unit Ws.…
May 23, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 5-22-2022
JJ@BC Many thanks to Big Tasty for hosting our five-game Friday night livestream breakdown. And give a tip of the cap to Tasty for his call on the Texas Rangers - at my expense, mind you! Still, Friday & Saturday treated us decently despite the Astros setback so we roll…

MLB Morning Breakdown for 5-20-2022: Special Edition

MLB Morning Breakdown for 5-18-2022
JJ@BC Despite bombing my featured handicaps while on the road last week, I have NOT yet been exiled from The BetCrushers Team. Yanni kept me around because I kept firing Sunday & Monday and got things back on track for the crew. Admittedly, I rushed some of my handicaps last…
May 18, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 5-14-2022
JJ@BC The MLB Morning Breakdown for 5-14-2022 drops late this morning off of a disappointing loss with the Orioles. Disappointing not so much in Eduardo Rodriguez' good outing but with Baltimore leaving the bases loaded in the 7th, 8th, and 9th innings. The O's 14 men left on base is…
May 14, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 5-13-2022
JJ@BC Who would have thunk that four days days of golf and hiking would leave me next to no time to write up handicaps? No worries on your end, however, as Monday through Thursday was about as close to a break-even chop as can be. I've finally made the jump…

MLB Morning Breakdown for 5-8-2022
Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there, especially those who gave birth to the nightmare known as The BetCrushers Team. Especially the mothers of our wives who keep us in check. Speaking of keeping in check, we skated by with the Rays first 5 inning wager while cruising…

MLB Morning Breakdown for 5-7-2022
Imagine thinking that Wednesday night's Bundy-Bradish matchup was going to be a pitcher's duel. That's where I left off, dropping the Twins game and watching my ROI slip into a more reasonable level. The day job has been punishing enough but today we head south to kick back and hit…
May 7, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 5-4-2022
First off, I owe our loyal readers an apology - a two-fold one. 1) Pablo's bad day on Monday and my overconfidence in the Marlins. 2) Getting sabotaged by the day job early Tuesday AM, sinking my plans for an article. The day job also poses a high likelihood that…

MLB Morning Breakdown for 5-2-2022
Don't you love it when a plan comes together? Many thanks to Big Tasty for sparing me from writing yesterday morning by bringing me on his show. It was a good time breaking down five games on the Sunday slate - two of which we took positions on, yielding a…
May 2, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 5-1-2022: Special Edition
The Cubbies had me fooled Friday morning and sure I paid the price. Combined with another half-unit loss at Coors Field, those two losses ate the Mets' profit plus a little bit of my bankroll. At least Friday's action did not yield an 0-3 whoopin. After a day off from…
May 1, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-29-2022
When the Tigers failed to plate the tying run in the 5th yesterday afternoon, I thought of what could have been for my first 5 inning dog bet. Then the Twins piled on 4 more runs in the bottom half of the inning and that thought turned to "damn I…
April 29, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-28-2022
"Maybe Kyle Tucker and Yordan Alvarez are breaking out of their slumps. Maybe it’s a mirage." Perhaps I invoked just enough mojo in yesterday's edition to get the Astros over the first 5 inning hump last night and cash our ticket. Certainly a sweaty one, but isn't that the way…
April 28, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-27-2022
Day jobs, man. After skipping the Tuesday edition, the MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-27-2022 drops after an unfortunate loss Monday night with the Mets first 5 innings bet. Props to Miles Mikolas for going toe to toe with Max Scherzer and delivering a 0-0 tie after the 5th. That said,…
April 27, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-25-2022
My wife said I got lucky with that one. I beg to differ. The Rays rallied for Shane McClanahan and delivered a first 5 inning winner that kept our nice little winning streak rolling. After enough years of doing this, I know how important it is to stockpile some ammo…
April 25, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-24-2022
Saturday brought us some good news with a side of bad news in the form of a 1-1 split. Fortunately, the full-unit position on Dylan Bundy and the Twins first 5 innings cruised to the finish line. On the other hand, Toronto and Houston failed to deliver a single run…
April 24, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-23-2022
The weekend is here as is the MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-23-2022 after a fantastic Friday that arguably could have been better. I got a little greedy with the Mets -1 run line that left me with a push in Phoenix after the bullpens took over. Never fear, as profits…

MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-22-2022
It's a good day for a Friday edition of the MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-22-2022 fresh off back-to-back feature winners. That may be a low bar, but it's my bar and the money is moving in the right direction after two weeks into the season. Carlos Carrasco's 7.2-inning gem got…
April 22, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-21-2022 – Early Edition
I'd say that the San Diego Padres made the under a little more interesting than it needed to be. But a win's a win - even if it was just a half-unit total. On that note, the MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-21-2022 comes at you super early due to a…
April 20, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-20-2022
The MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-20-2022 returns after a quick break due to my work schedule. Back-to-back long days at the office sandwiched a very disappointing loss with the manufactured -1 run line on the Rays. Shane McClanahan dazzled but, in my opinion, Monday night's game ball went to Keegan…
April 20, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-18-2022
Saturday's trio of one-run results left me with a -1.25-unit giveback day - a finish that was much better than I expected after a fast and furious start to the 2022 season. Tampa gave us a run for the +120 money with bases loaded in the 9th though my manufactured…
April 18, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-16-2022
A run in the 9th sinks the Colorado under while the Mets and Marlins fuel a winning day - one that made up for Thursday's loss and adds more ammo to the bankroll. But that could be all for not as I load 'em up with a three-play Saturday in…
April 16, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-15-2022
The Gausman-Severino main event in the Bronx proved to be quite the pitching duel amongst two high-powered offenses last night. The Jays first 5 inning position also proved to be an L for us, but at least one of the half-unit variety. Lineup uncertainty led to my limited exposure early…
April 15, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-14-2022
Make it two days in a row now that our Solo Shot hit a very sketchy patch. This time, it was Max Scherzer loading the bags full of Phillies in the 1st. Mad Max somehow took care of business while the Mets' bats kept their end of the bargain. That's…

MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-13-2022
When the man is dialed in, the man is dialed in. Shane Bieber had the mojo rocking for as long as I needed him to against my Cincinnati Reds, making for a quick first 5 inning scoop. First 5 ringer Mr. Pig had a great breakdown of the same wager…
April 13, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-12-2022
I must admit that things got a little sketchy when Alek Manoah's mechanics went south on me last night in the 3rd. But Toronto' defense had his back and George Springer took care of the scoring as the Blue Jays deliver the W. With immense gratitude to Bo Bichette's fielding…
April 12, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-11-2022
The MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-11-2022 drops after one hell of an Opening Weekend. Not necessarily my betting results - although I'm far from upset with the season's start - but the amount of action and sweaty bets I got to watch play out. Especially when it came to the…
April 11, 2022
MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-10-2022
After yesterday's outbreak of low scoring games we had to put our research team of Yanni and D-Nice on the case. They've run multiple statistical analyses and made the executive decision to bet the under in every MLB game today. This should be interesting. As for me, I'm ready to…

MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-9-2022
Getting walked off by the Yankees yesterday afternoon wasn't the best follow up to a decent Opening Day for our featured handicaps. Is it time to start firing on -200 favorites until I'm blue in the face? Not a chance! The MLB Morning Breakdown for 4-9-2022 rolls in with cash…

MLB 2022 Preseason Wrap-up

2022 NL East Futures Preview
I saved the best for last. The World Series Champion Atlanta Braves brought the hardware back to the NL East after a slow start to the season. It was impressively opposite of the Mets' summer swoon that landed them with a below-.500 record behind the sneaky Phillies. There's a ton…

2022 AL West Futures Preview
I owe a lot to the AL West for being our preseason futures cash cow once again as the Houston Astros picked up where they left off in the 2020 postseason. The division title got very interesting down the stretch as Oakland's second-half fizzle coupled with an overlooked Seattle club…
March 22, 2022
2022 AL East Futures Preview
Not only was the AL East home to a fierce battle between the Yankees and Red Sox, it bore three playoff teams come October. Once the Tampa Bay Rays sealed their second straight division title it was a mad dash for the wild card slots. Toronto's late surge was worthy…

2022 AL Central Futures Preview
The Minnesota Twins entered the 2021 season with high hopes of a third consecutive AL Central crown. Reality proved to be quite the bear for the defending champs from the get-go. Instead of a repeat, the Twins cratered to the bottom of the heap while the Chicago White Sox completed…

2022 NL Central Futures Preview
Milwaukee's success, paired with divisional foes who struggled to keep pace down the stretch, resulted in the NL Central's third different champion in as many years. St. Louis's sluggish start made it that much more difficult for the Cardinals to chase down the Brewers, though they certainly made a valiant…
