Comp Soccer Prediction from Doc’s Sports. MLS Take Dallas/Salt Lake OVER (8:30 p.m. EST, Saturday May 10) (Graded after regulation time - 90min - plus injury time)
These sides are nothing to write home about offensive, but their defenses are bad enough where both sides should have plenty of opportunities, and these sides have a strong history for high scoring matches. These are two of the worst defensive sides in MLS and combine to allow more than three goals per match. Dallas is coming off a road loss to San Diego where they conceded five goals. They were held scoreless in that one, but they should put an emphasis on scoring here and home pitch should help in that regard, and Salt Lake have given up five goals in their last three on the road. There’s a great chance Dallas could get two or more here. Salt Lake have scored in three straight on the road, amassing five goals in those matches. So there’s a good chance they will get at least one, and multiples is not out of the question. Four of the last five meetings have gone over the posted number, and three of those matches have seen four or more goals scored. We think we could see a result where both sides had multiple goals, but we are confident both will combine for three or more, and this price is more than fair for Saturday’s clash.

Jack's Free Pick Friday: Seattle Mariners -132
I like the spot for the Seattle Mariners Friday. They had Thursday off while the Toronto Blue Jays were completing a series in Los Angeles. The Mariners will have the rest advantage, and they are playing the much better baseball coming into this one.
The Mariners are 18-6 in their last 24 games overall. They are showing they have a much more potent offense this season scoring at least 4 runs in 19 of those 24 games. They are scoring 5.1 runs per game on the season which ranks 5th in baseball. The Blue Jays are scoring 3.9 runs per game which ranks 25th.
Luis Castillo is coming off his best two starts of the season allowing one earned run and 9 base runners in 12 innings. Castillo has allowed just 4 earned runs in 11 2/3 innings in his last two starts against Toronto.
Kevin Gausman has faltered here of late allowing 10 earned runs in 14 2/3 innings in his last three starts coming in. Gausman has allowed 6 earned runs and 4 homers in 12 innings in his last two starts against Seattle. Bet the Mariners Friday.

Friday Card up with Headliner Play in the NBA , NHL and MLB. Comp Play below
The MLB Comp Play is on Miami at 7:40 eastern. The Marlins are in a nice system that we use for rested road favorites off a home dog loss that scored less than 2 runs and allowed 7+ runs which they did in their loss to LA on Wednesday and now they are taking on a team like Chicago also in off a loss. Miami has won 7 of 9 as a road favorite and has Mayer going and he was solid in his first 5 starts but has allowed 10 runs in his last two but may get back on track here against a light hitting Whitesox team that is 27th in the league on offense. Wilson for Miami has a 5.56 ERA. Look for Miami to take the opener. Rob V-
