Tiny Nick’s Gambling Picks: 04/14

LocksMLB (1 Unit) Kansas City Royals Team Total Over 4 (-110; Odds via Caesars): 6:05 PM CT on MLB NetworkI don’t think I’m alone in wondering when the Royals lineup is going to wake up. Kansas City should be a much better team at the plate than they’ve been, only clearing this team total twice on the entire season so far. But what better time than now against Carlos Carrasco, who is hanging on in the majors by a thread.

LocksMLB (0.5 Unit) Detroit Tigers First 5 Innings ML @ Minnesota Twins (-105; Odds via Caesars): 1:10 PM CT on MNNTWe’re now in a place where the Twins are in jeopardy of getting swept at home by the Tigers. That’s a serious re-ordering of the normal AL Central power structure, but it’s simply the new reality. The Twins should be very concerned about that sweep possibility here because it’s really not a good pitching matchup for them.

LocksMLB (0.5 Unit) Detroit Tigers Team Total Over 4.5 (+105; Odds via Caesars): 1:10 PM CT on MNNTIt’s just disappointment after disappointment with this Twins team, going all the way back to the finish of last season. I don’t see an end to it today as one of the biggest disappointments on the team takes the mound.

LocksNBA (0.5 Unit) Charlotte Hornets @ Boston Celtics -12 First Half (-110; Odds via Caesars): 6:30 PM CT on NBCS-BostonI get the sense that Boston will want to bounce back from scoring just 76 points in a 20-point loss at Orlando on Wednesday night. Of course it was self-inflicted as the Celtics rested everyone, but still, nobody bounces back quite like this team as they’re 18-2 off a loss with a plus-18.8 average margin of victory.

LocksNBA (0.5 Unit) Minnesota Timberwolves First Quarter Team Total Over 29 (-110; Odds via Fanduel): 8:30 PM CT on TNTThis is a massive game for playoff seeding after the Wolves flushed the 4-seed down the drain in the 4th quarter on Tuesday. I swear this team’s potential outcomes this season range from losing to the 10-seed in the play-in, to making a finals appearance. They’re that inconsistent from game to game, so betting on them here or anywhere is a rollercoaster experience.

LocksNBA (0.5 Unit) LA Lakers -3.5 @ Dallas Mavericks (-110; Odds via Caesars): 6:30 PM CT on ESPNThis date has been circled on a lot of calendars for a long time, and rightfully so. Luka returns to Dallas for the first time, and he’s fresh off getting ejected from last night’s game so even more fuel will have been added to his fire.

LocksNBA (0.5 Unit) Minnesota Timberwolves/Milwaukee Bucks Over 222.5 (-110; Odds via Fanduel): 7:00 PM CT on Fanduel Sports NorthThis total has come down a few points, into a range where I feel comfortable being on the over. Something like Giannis being downgraded from his probable status would obviously change things, but he appears to be good to go. So I see the Bucks offense continuing at the level it’s been playing at since figuring out how to compensate for Damian Lillard’s absence.

LocksNCAA Tournament (0.5 Unit) Houston vs Florida -1 (-110; Odds via Caesars): 7:50 PM CT on CBSThis game is really tough to handicap. There’s so much strength-versus-strength in the matchups that I’m really down to nitpicking each team’s rare losses this season. Houston is so hot that their only loss since November was by a single point in overtime, but the losses before that were to teams that are important here.

LocksNBA (0.75 Unit) LA Lakers @ OKC Thunder -8.5 (-110; Odds via DraftKings): 2:30 PM CT on NBA TVThe absolute demolition jobs OKC is putting on visiting teams is almost over. They have this faux doubleheader today and Tuesday with the Lakers, which I think starts out the way we’ve come to expect from Thunder home games.

LocksNBA (0.75 Unit) Minnesota Timberwolves -15.5 @ Philadelphia 76ers (-110; Odds via BetMGM): 6:00 PM CT on Fanduel Sports NorthThe closing stretch of the season will tell us a lot about this Wolves squad, as the competition is extremely soft. If the Wolves are finally taking bad teams seriously and putting in a full effort against them, they’ll roll through their last few opponents and it starts here.
