Yesterday Recap
Went 2–2. Lost the A’s (shocker) and Fritz (heartbreaker, but hey, 0–11 now isn’t worse than 0–10). Won the Yankees and the Guardians/Red Sox Over. Bankroll still standing. Girlfriend still mad.
🎾 US Open Picks
Alex De Minaur ML @ -154 vs Auger-Aliassime
Head-to-head: FAA leads 2–1, but they haven’t played in over a year. De Minaur’s recent form is scary good, probably the best tennis of his career. FAA’s been solid too, knocking off Zverev and Rublev, but I think De Minaur’s legs and defense tilt this. Should be a war.
Naomi Osaka -3.5 games @ -126 vs Muchova
Osaka dismantled Coco like it was nothing. Muchova has battled through three straight three-setters—great competition, but lots of wear and tear. Osaka’s ceiling is higher, and if she finds it here, she clears this spread.
⚾ MLB Picks
Brewers ML @ -116 vs Phillies
Jose Quintana isn’t an ace, but he’s steady—usually under 3 ERs per start. Aaron Nola? Dude’s been leaking runs like a busted hydrant (21 in his last 4 starts). If the Brewers can just keep Philly under 5, they win this.
Tigers ML @ +100 vs Mets
Detroit’s the better team overall, but they’ve dropped two straight in this series. They can’t afford a sweep. Casey Mize was rough last outing (5 runs in 3.1), but he tends to bounce back at home. Tigers claw one back.
Giants vs Rockies Over 11 @ -105
Coors Field. Enough said. German Márquez is starting—he gave up 8 in his last game. Let’s root for late-night chaos, dingers, and broken bullpens.
MaxT Final Word
I’m coming in hot today: 2 tennis plays, 3 baseball plays. Balanced diet, degenerate-approved. Yesterday was even. Today? We feast.
And if De Minaur and Osaka cash, I’ll be insufferable tomorrow. If they don’t, I’ll be asking my girl if prenups can apply to FanDuel accounts.
