Expert Handicapper
I jumped into sports betting headfirst due to an irresistible call to action. I am a sports writer by trade, earning my B.A. in Journalism with a sports reporting concentration from Michigan State in 2012. With my journalism background, I combine thorough research with a keen eye for hidden value to generate consistent profits for my clients. In my free time, I enjoy talking "shop" with like-minded people. This allows me to see different angles and avoid traps that derail my progress. In short, their insight and intuition assist or deter my decision-making process. The pitfalls to avoid in sports gambling are following the crowd, assumptions, gullibility, and lack of accountability. A bettor is never as hot or cold as their best and worst streaks. By dedicating yourself to obtaining knowledge, you will never feel like you know it all. At its core, sports betting is about intuition. When you can predict which way the wind will blow, you will never feel caught up in the current stream. Sometimes you need to be counterintuitive. Risk is in the mind of the beholder, but when you bet with me, you'll find that the reward justifies the wager! Follow me on Twitter @MikeBriggsBets

COL vs. SF (Giants -1.5)
(MLB) Rockies (COL) vs. Giants (SFG),
Point Spread: -1.50 | 116.00 Giants (SFG) (Home)
San Francisco will coast to a home victory on Saturday at Oracle Park. Blake Snell is starting to regain his form, having held his three July opponents to two total runs on six hits in 18.0 combined innings. The 2023 N.L. Cy Young winner held Colorado to four total runs with 31 strikeouts in three starts last season, including one run in the last two outings (14.0 IP). The Rockies, who slash .225 BA/.284 OBP/.372 SLG/.657 OPS on the road, will struggle to get going offensively against the left-hander.

I'm also bullish on the Giants' chances against Ryan Feltner, who will be making consecutive starts against SF. That's challenging, especially for a pitcher who allowed ten runs in his previous two matchups with the Giants. They're off to a slow start to July but there's upside in a wager on them to break out at home tomorrow, especially with the worst bullpen in baseball backing up the Rockies' starter.
COL vs. SF (Rockies ML)
(MLB) Rockies (COL) vs. Giants (SFG),
Money Line: 150.00 Rockies (COL) (Away)
At +150 odds, there's too much value on Colorado to win to pass up a bet on the Rockies ML. Besides, the Giants are 2-5 in their last seven games, having lost two of three to Colorado less than a week ago. Tomorrow, they'll face a starter in Freeland who has allowed four total runs in the last three matchups dating back to last season. He has held San Francisco to three or fewer runs in 17 of his 23 career meetings, as well.

Colorado is coming off a momentous annihilation of Boston and had Thursday off. Its bats won't cool off tomorrow night (.256/.320/.420/.741 in night games) against an underachieving San Francisco ballclub that lost in Los Angeles on Thursday.
