| #906 ASA PLAY ON New York Mets -160 over St Louis Cardinals, Friday at 7:10 PM ET - A lot of edges for the Mets here as the Cardinals lineup does not have any significant experience against David Peterson except for Contreras and he is 1 for 8 against him. The Mets lineup, on the other hand, has plenty of hitters with a lot of experience against Miles Mikolas and many have enjoyed success too. Not only that, the veteran right-hander is struggling this season with an 0-2 record and 9.00 ERA in his first 3 starts. Mikolas entered this season with an ERA above the 5.00 mark the past two seasons combined. He is not the same pitcher he once was. As for Peterson, he was 10-3 with a 2.90 ERA last season and he has a 2.70 ERA so far this season. The Mets won yesterday's game 4-1 and are now 6-1 at home this season and that Cardinals defeat dropped St Louis to 1-6 on road this season. With the home team edge plus starting pitching edge plus bullen edge (NYM 2.09 ERA, STL 4.18 ERA) we are going to lay the price here as this spot is simply too good to pass up. We are going with the money line on the home favorite in this one and we expect a dominating home win Friday! | ||

| Spanish La Liga: #201945/201946 ASA PLAY ON Over 1.5 Goals (-155) – Espanyol vs Getafe, Friday at 3 ET - Espanyol off a 2-0 win and has scored 19 goals in 15 games as a host this season in La Liga action. Getafe is one of the better road teams in the league and will be looking to bounce back from a surprising 3-1 home loss to relegation-threatened Las Palmas! Getafe has scored 17 goals in 15 games on the road in La Liga action this season. The last 3 meetings between these teams have all had a 1-0 final scoreline but the current form of each team suggests a 1-1 or 2-1 battle is in the offing here. Espanyol: 5 straight games totaling at least 2 goals and also 9 of the last 11 have reached at least the 2-goal mark. Getafe: 5 straight games totaling at least 2 goals and also 10 of the last 13 have reached at least the 2-goal mark. Our computer math model shows the highest probability being a match totaling 2 to 3 goals here and we will take the over in this one. | ||

ASA NBA play on OVER 220 Dallas Mavericks at Memphis Grizzlies, 9:30 pm ET - Dallas is coming off an unexpected great shooting night in Sacramento hitting 49% overall and 50% from Deep, coasting to 120-points and the win. Obviously didn’t see that coming. The 120 they scored could have been much more, but they took their foot off the gas late and we don’t see them having that option here. More to come. Memphis basically fumbled their game away against the Warriors the other night which finished with 237 total points. Memphis shot 49% overall and 46% from beyond the arc against an outstanding Warriors defense. Now they face a Dallas D that was 20th in Defensive Efficiency this season. Memphis’ league-leading pace of 103.1 possessions per game, paired with Dallas’ respectable 99.2 (14th), sets the stage for a fast-paced, high-possession game. Historically, these teams have combined for some higher scoring games with six straight meetings of 223 or more points, including 229 in their April 13 regular season finale when the Over/Under was 228.5—eight points higher than tonight’s game. Memphis’ potent offense (121.6 points per game, 3rd in efficiency) and shaky defense (15th) coupled with Dallas’ scoring (114.4 points) and defensive lapses (115.2 allowed) make for a high scoring game. Dallas owned a 28-14-1 Over record on the road this season and have gone Over in 15 of their last 20 games. Memphis has gone Over in 56.6% of their games this season, including 3 of their last 4. |

MLB | Apr 19, 2025 Yankees vs Rays |
Rays -117 at BookMaker |

| Play Type: Top Premium | ||
| #966 ASA PLAY ON Tampa Bay Rays -125 over New York Yankees, Saturday at 4:10 PM ET - The Rays have been struggling and we fully realize that but this is a fantastic spot for them to get back on track after yesterday's 1-0 shutout loss here at home. Tampa Bay has a big pitching edge here with Baz over Carrasco. Shane Baz is 2-0 with a 1.42 ERA and has struck out 27 in 19 innings this season. Baz has made 26 starts in his MLB career and he has held opponents to a .202 batting average. We look for him to frustrate the Yankees here as his early season stuff has been dominant. As for Carlos Carrasco, he is struggling again this season. Remember that he entered this season a combined 6-18 the past two years with a 6.80 ERA in 2023 and a 5.64 ERA in 2024. This season he is 2-1 but with a 5.94 ERA and he gave up 3 homers in 4.1 innings in his lone road start. We know the Rays have not been hitting well but this is the right match-up for them to get rolling again at the plate. Combining that with a strong start from Baz and this looks like the slump-buster the Rays need so we are going to lay the price here as this spot is simply too good to pass up. We are going with the money line on the home favorite in this one and we expect a dominating home win Saturday! | ||

German Bundesliga #202593/202594 ASA PLAY ON Over 3.5 Goals (+105) – Heidenheim vs Bayern Munich, Saturday at 9:30 AM ET -Bayern Munich not happy at all about their exit from the Champions League and now their full focus turns to Bundesliga action. That is concerning for a Heidenheim side that won't able to hold off relentless attacking from the visitors here. Bayern Munich, however, has been allowing more goals than usual of late and with Heidenheim also hosting this one they are likely to do some damage on the attack as well. Bayern Munich has allowed 1.8 goals per game in their last five. They also have scored about 3 goals per game in Bundesliga action this season. The last 4 meetings between these clubs have totaled 26 goals with none of the four finishing with less than 5 goals scored. Look for another wide-open high-scoring thriller here in this one as well. We will take the over in this one. |

The owners of American Sports Analysts (ASAwins), Lee Kostroski & Mike Merlet, have a combined 50+ years in the sports betting industry. Both started with Doc’s Enterprises, Lee in the late 80’s and Mike in the early 90’s. After learning the handicapping trade from one of the oldest in the business, they started ASA Inc in 1997 and have been going strong ever since. They have been known throughout the industry for their success on BIG GAMES including their 10* Midwest Game of the Year. ASA is located in Madison, WI and a foundation of their handicapping prowess revolves around the heart of the country – especially the Big Ten. ASAwins has appeared on numerous radio shows throughout the country as special expert football guests including Tampa, New Orleans, Madison, Milwaukee, Memphis, Las Vegas, and Denver just to name a few. They were also featured on the ESPN website with gaming writer Chad Millman during the 2011 season. ASAwins handicapping methods have evolved through years of with hard work and research being the anchor of their success. Rather than implementing one specific strategy as many handicappers do, they intertwine many different philosophies when it comes to making football, basketball, hockey, and baseball selections. They utilize their massive database that goes back over 30 years and can give them in depth information on any situation you can think of when it comes to handicapping. That’s not where they stop, however. They also research stats and film each week to evaluate the upcoming match ups on the field along with speaking with their personal contacts throughout the country (especially in the Midwest). On top of that, they analyze each point spread (and their movements) comparing them with their own power ratings to find where an edge might be found. Lastly, their predictive analytics or math models predict the outcomes of games based solely on numbers and statistics that aren’t swayed by the human element. So, as you can see, just because a game may fall into a successful system or the scheduling looks good to go against or with a certain team, that doesn’t mean that ASA automatically uses it as a selection. It must go through their in-depth process with all things considered before they give it the ASA stamp of approval. Looking at games from all these angles gives ASA the best of all worlds when it comes to handicapping. Their handicapping theories have proven successful over the years which has them as one of the more tenured experts in the industry.
