ASA Handicapper Reviews & Picks

ASA WNBA play on OVER 180.5 Indiana Fever at LV Aces, 7pm ET - This game is going to be missing two of the league’s biggest stars as Caitlyn Clark for the Fever and A’ja Wilson for the Aces are listed as out. We can count on this game be fast paced as the Fever rank 1st in possessions per game, the Aces are 6th. Las Vegas has the #1 rated offense in terms of efficiency as they average 1.087 points per possession. Indiana is 3rd at 1.073PPP. Both teams are also top 3 when it comes to eFG% with the Aces at 55%, the Fever eFG% is 54.3%. Indiana is coming off a pair of games without Clark and still managed to score 109 and 111 points. Without Wilson the Aces scored 85 against the Liberty and 98 against the Sky. It’s not like either defense is capable of stopping the others offense either. Las Vegas is 8th in defensive net rating, the Fever are 7th. This all adds up to what should be a game that finishes with 184 or more points.

#973 ASA PLAY ON Boston Red Sox -152 over Los Angeles Angels, Sunday at 9:30 PM ET - We lay some moderate juice on this one but there is solid line value here. Trout took batting practice yesterday but he is still out until at least Tuesday's game and his absence really hurts this Angels team. LA has now lost 5 straight games and this team has scored an average of only 2.5 runs in their last 8 games. Boston, on the other hand, has been rather hot and is now 7-2 in their last 9 games after dominating in an 8-1 win yesterday. The Red Sox have averaged scoring a respectable 5 runs per game their last 11 games and we just don't see the currently punchless Angels keeping up here. This is particularly true when one looks at the pitching match-up here. The Angels Ryan Johnson has a 7.40 ERA on the season. We realize has been decent overall in his 3 starts since moving into the rotation but one of those saw him have to skate through trouble and another one saw him allow 5 earned runs in 5 innings. Boston has former Phillie Ranger Suarez on the mound and he has been known as a streaky hurler. The left-hander not only has a 2.94 ERA on the season this year, he also is currently in one of his classic 'hot zones' again. Suarez went undefeated with a 2.10 ERA in his 5 June starts and we look for him to start July with a great start here as well as the Angels slump continues. Two teams going opposite directions and we like the pitching match-up too. Also, for bullpen ERA the Red Sox rank 3rd in the majors while the Angels are way down in 24th. About the Angels, they are 22-40 in night games this season and 8-16 against left-handed starters this year. Considering all of the above, we lay the price on Boston with confidence here for Sunday night.

2026 FIFA World Cup, Round of 16: - #225579/225580 ASA PLAY ON Over 2 Goals (-125) – Mexico vs England, Sunday at 8 PM ET - England's last 3 matches have averaged a total of 1.7 goals. However, they began this tournament with a 4-2 win over Croatia. What has happened recently is that England faced a bunch of teams they were vastly superior to and those teams wanted to sit back and play with a very rigid defensive structure. That all changes here, now England faces a Mexico side that is not going to just sit back. Mexico has scored an average of 2 goals in their 4 matches in this tournament thus far. We are, of course, fully cognizant of the fact that Mexico has yet to concede a goal in this tournament but now they face an England side that has averaged scoring 2 goals per match in this tournament. We love the value with this total available at 2 goals and feel that each club scoring at least once is not a big ask in this one. Look for at least a 2-1 final here in a very entertaining match as this will be a fantastic match between two very strong sides that both are willing to be a little aggressive in the transition game through midfield. Take the Over here in the Mexico / England match Sunday evening.
