MLB Best Bets
Houston Astros (+100) vs. Texas Rangers (-118)| O/U 9 (-106/-114)
It is fair to wonder if Cristian Javier has hit a wall now that he is almost 60% of the way to his previous career-high in innings halfway through the season.
After pitching to a 2.84 ERA through his first 12 starts, Javier has posted a 7.27 ERA over his last four. Most of his troubles stem from an inability to miss bats, as he has two or fewer strikeouts in four consecutive outings. Not whiffing hitters is a dangerous way to make a living against the Texas Rangers, who lead the majors with a .327 BABIP. Javier's BABIP is up 20% from last year to .275, and his xSLG is higher than his actual slugging percentage on all three of his primary pitches that he combines to throw 97.8% of the time.
Javier has held current Rangers hitters to a combined .200/.308/.358 slash line in 110 at-bats, with 35 of the 75 outs coming via strikeout. However, he is in nowhere the form that he made many of those starts, and we are confident that the Rangers offense will show up today despite the Under going 9-2-1 in the last 12 meetings in Texas between these teams.
Pick: Rangers team total Over 4.5 (+100)

NBA Summer League Best Bets
Spurs vs. Hornets
NBA fans will need to wait a few days for the debut of No. 1 overall pick Victor Wembanyama, while the Hornets will play Brandon Miller. Those were the first two picks of the NBA Draft. The Spurs will have familiar names like Malaki Branham, Sidy Cissoko, Dominick Barlow, and Julian Champagnie, all on contract with at least a two-way deal with San Antonio. The squad also has Sir'Jabari Rice and Erick Stevenson, both college standouts. On the other hand, the Hornets have so much exciting young talent. Miller will play alongside Nick Smith Jr., James Bouknight, Bryce McGowens, Kobi Simmons, Xavier Sneed, Kai Jones, and James Nnaji. Charlotte is deep with talent and will likely play better than San Antonio tonight, especially without Wembanyama.
Pick: Hornets -6.5
