5 Unit Play. Take #974 Atlanta over Boston (7:15p.m., Saturday, May 16 MLB.tv) The Braves are just a better all-around team than Boston is and we will take them at this number anytime it is available. Atlanta has the edge in pitching tonight with Bryce Elder on the mound. If he throws strikes is tough to handle evident by his 53 strikeouts and just over 54 innings of work. Atlanta won last night and I see them carry that into this game on Saturday. |

This is do or die in an elimination game for the Sabres and we just think they will lock down on defense after allowing six goals to the Habs in Game 5. In that game, Montreal was incredibly accurate as they were limited to 26 shots and only three in the third period. That was their lowest effort in the series for shots on goal. Yet they still scored six goals, so there was some luck involved despite a strong defensive effort from Buffalo. Game 3 in Montreal was the only one of the last four meetings here that went over six goals. We think both teams lock down on defense in the most important game of each team’s season and we think this one has a chance to be the lowest scoring game of the series. |

Doc's Sports Service has been in the sports handicapping business since 1971, and we are recognized as one of the leaders and most trusted names in the industry. Most handicapping services are one-man operations, but here at Doc’s Sports we are among the most progressive thinkers in the industry, and we have assembled some of the finest experts in the country for our service. We are one of the few handicapping companies that have withstood the test of time because of hard work, honesty and consistently of providing winners to our valued clients. Since 1971 Doc’s Sports became famous for our college football Big Ten Game of the Year that won and covered the point spread 19 years in a row. Doc’s Sports is one of the only handicapping services whose powerful influence has historically moved the official Las Vegas line more than seven points. At Doc’s Sports we often focus on lesser-known teams and less-popular games as oftentimes less information is available on those teams and games and certain trends tend to stick out and offer value that the average person may not catch. Oddsmakers set lines to balance the action, so in reality we're often handicapping against the general public perception, and the general public rarely ever wins long term. When you think of it that way our job is really not that difficult since we have more than four decades of experience and know what to look for when handicapping a game. The sportsbooks and oddsmakers have to handicap and set lines for every game -- we simply find a few of their mistakes. Doc’s Sports uses a combination of technical and fundamental handicapping along with exclusive information that we gather from a vast network of contacts that we have developed over the past 40+ years. At Doc’s Sports we built our name in the 1970s by becoming one of the best in handicapping college sports. That still holds true today as our best results still come from college football and college basketball. We also have individual full-time handicappers for NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, WNBA, CFL and major horse races, and we feel we have some of the top experts in the country in these designated fields. We are always in search of the best talent for our team, and what surprises most people is that some of our best information comes from our own clients. These are trusted clients that have been not only customers but have turned into friends of ours over the years, and they are able to pick up on key information in their areas. We love the feeling of being able to help people make money when facing challenging odds. Good money can be made if one has the connections, and here at Doc's Sports we pride ourselves on uncovering the edge that gives the clients the ability to beat the books on a consistent basis. |
