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!

CUBS ML (-127) vs RANGERS

Money Line: -127.00 Cubs (CHC) (Home)

https://winnersandwhiners.com/games/mlb/4-7-2025/texas-rangers-vs-chicago-cubs-prediction-7497/
I'll take Justin Steele and Chicago. The Rangers have a lot of lefty bats that will be neutralized by this matchup, and Steele is due for a bounce-back win. The home team took two of three against the red-hot Padres, losing by only one run in the finale. They will sustain their momentum against a Rangers team due for a setback after five consecutive wins. Texas has upside, but they are very hot. I don't doubt that they can be a contender in 2025, but winning eight of ten was premature. Steele can keep Texas' bats in check, leading the home team to a win in the series opener.

PIRATES ML (+105) vs CARDINALS
(MLB) Cardinals (STL) vs. Pirates (PIT),
Money Line: 105.00 Pirates (PIT) (Home)
Money Line: 105.00 Pirates (PIT) (Home)
I expect Pittsburgh to win outright on Monday after playing well on Sunday against the Yankees. They bring good value at home at plus odds against a Cardinals team that played a doubleheader at Fenway and then traveled to Pennsylvania for Monday's divisional clash. St. Louis has the prestige that Pitt doesn't, but let's not get it twisted. The Cardinals are unlikely to make the postseason in 2025, and the Pirates could be better than we assume. This early in the season, casual bettors will target the "brand name" teams over squads like Pittsburgh, but that's plain ignorance.
I value Pittsburgh on Monday to win straight-up against a tired and road-weary Cardinals team!
