My Bonus Play for tonight is on the Oakland Athletics over the Kansas City Royals, and we're taking the boys from the Bay on the Run Line.
As of 6 am pacific, I'm not seeing a Run Line price, but it will be needed with the regular prices I'm seeing around -165.
IMPORTANT: As you know every single Run Line play and Total wager will automatically list the scheduled starting pitchers at the time of the wager. But with this game I am not concerned with who is pitching for either team tonight and want you playing this game on the Run Line regardless. That said, IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to be sure you have action even if one of the pitchers scheduled to start is scratched, by betting the game over again in the event that takes place.
Real quick here, with this game, I'm simply going against the struggling Royals, who have lost four in a row and and roll into Oakland with an 11-20 road record after falling in Anaheim last night. No time to rest, as the Royals headed north and now have to jump into this four-game series with the Athletics in Oaktown.
The crowd should be a bit raucous, as the Golden State Warriors are on the brink of another world championship after last night's demoralizing win over the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Oakland is 31-31 and would love to snap a two-game skid by shaking off a rough road trip that ended with last night's 8-2 loss in Arlington.
Take the A's on the Run Line.

So let me start by saying, that if you're playing with a traditional, I do understand that you may not be getting period-props. So I am advising you to play the Over in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final. Both teams have major goals, and both goalies will be under siege.
But I really like the total soaring in the first period, as we need two goals to get there. I don't see this one taking long, as the Vegas Golden Knights will want to get things started immediately, and will try to ignite the crowd, and the Washington Capitals will be fighting for the first goal to deflate the crowd early.
In the playoffs, the Capitals have taken 235 shots on goal in the first period, their second most behind the 249 they've taken in the second period.
Washington is 12-4 when it has scored first, while the Golden Knights are 11-2 when putting the puck in the net first. And when leading after one period, Washington is 7-3 and Vegas is 7-1.
The first period dictates how this game will go tonight, and it will be the start of a wild scene in Las Vegas, where the Golden Knights will look to keep the fairy tale going. If there is any team that can do that, after the season they've had, it's the Knights.
I don't know Vegas wins, but I like the first period to go Over. And if you can't get that play, take the Over in the game.

Your Thursday freebie is the Over in the Stanley Cup Final between the Capitals and the Golden Knights.
I have the feeling that Marc-Andre Fleury is a little "rattled" right now, and with elimination of the line, there could be a few empty-net opportunities for the Caps before this one is all said and done.
Monday's meeting turned into a 6-2 rout for Washington in a game that landed Over the total, and I see this game tonight also devolving into a game that stays tight early, but results in a flurry of late goals to send it over the total.
Game One was 6-4 in favor of Vegas, and Game Two on Knights' ice ended at 3-2 in favor of Washington in a game that held Under by a hook.
Washington has been rolling on offense, and that momentum will continue tonight I believe.
If Vegas wishes to play again in this series, they had better find the back of the net tonight. At home, I think they will.
Lotsa goals in this one.
Caps-Knights Over the total.

I like two player props for tonight's Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final, and that is to see Vegas' James Neal and Evgeny Kuznetsov to score goals. The prices I am seeing are incredible value, so I'm going to play on both of these guys.
Neal, who is making his second-straight Stanley Cup Final appearance after playing with Nashville last season, has tied a career high with six goals in the postseason, including a goal in Game 4. He would have liked to have two goals last game, as he clanked the post after staring at a wide open net. It wouldn't surprise me to see him net the first goal of the game tonight, and even score a couple.
Meanwhile, Kuznetsov recorded four assists in Game 4 to match a single-game Stanley Cup Final record. Kuznetsov, who leads the playoffs with 31 points (12 goals, 19 assists)
in 23 games, became the fifth NHL player since 1997 to register 30 or more points in a single postseason. He plays on the team's top line with Alex Ovechkin and Tom Wilson, and arguably has been the team's MVP during this Final run. I think he scores tonight.
Based on 1♦ to 5♦
2* KUZNETSOV GOAL (YES, +190) 1* NEAL GOAL (YES, +200)

Thursday's comp play comes in hockey on the Washington Capitals over the Vegas Golden Knights.
It has been a magical first season of hockey in Sin City, as the expansion Golden Knights have far exceeded the hockey world's expectations by advancing to the Stanley Cup in their first season on the ice!
Look for the clock to strike 12 tonight on the Knights, as Washington has been the better - more dominant - team the longer this series has gone on, as the Capitals took the last game played at the T-Mobile Arena last Wednesday night, and have now reeled off 3 straight victories over Vegas.
Not only have the Caps been winning, but it really has not been close, as Washington has outscored Vegas, 12-5 in taking the 3-1 series lead.
Alexander Ovechkin and his team can finally see the finish line, and clearly they have Marc-Andre Fleury's number of late.
Take the Caps plus money to end the hockey season tonight.

#6 SPIRIT WARRIOR (ML=20/1)
SHAPE OF YOU - You always have to be on the lookout for revenue generating jockey/conditioner tandems; we have it right here. Took a big class drop last out, and I think she may have needed it. McCutchen enters her at a similar class level today. I'd expect an improved performance. This filly is tops in earnings per race. Take a good look at this thoroughbred in the saddling ring. I know the stable is serious today. The filly gets Lasix for the 1st time. GALES OF NOVEMBER - Have to like the way Santangelo has raced this filly back into shape off the layoff. Equine is well spotted in this sprint and I think she'll run well today. Horse has improved at least two speed rating points in last two races. I look for that to continue to trend in a positive direction today. SPIRIT WARRIOR - Rounding her way back into form. Each of her finish positions is getting better in her recent starts. This is this filly's first try on the turf. Ran well finishing first on May 18th. The track was slow that day, so I think this equine will take to the turf. Won her last after shipping in. I like her again. Don't often see a beneficial return on investment like +175. This jockey/conditioner tandem has done well together over the last 12 months. This horse has increased her speed ratings in each of the last two races. That kind of progress is telling me this horse is ready.
Vulnerable Contenders: #1 SPIRIT FLY (ML=7/2), #9 TIZ B B N (ML=5/1),
SPIRIT FLY - Generally I need a sprinter to have some recent success in short distance contests in order to back her. TIZ B B N - In the last event this vulnerable equine finished fourth. Doesn't bode well for her chances in today's event.

Looks to have a decent class edge based on the most recent company kept. Is a strong contender based on figures earned as of late under today's conditions. GYM TOO - Looks very good to be on or close to the front end at the first call. Ran a strong last race. MIGHTY ONE - Could best this group of animals based on the Equibase Speed Fig - 83 - of his last contest.

# 6 FINAL CHAPTER 2/1
# 2 GYM TOO 6/1
# 4 MIGHTY ONE 8/1
FINAL CHAPTER looks to be a competitive contender. His earnings per start in dirt sprint races alone makes you take a look at him. Looks to have a decent class edge based on the most recent company kept. Is a strong contender based on figures earned as of late under today's conditions. GYM TOO - Looks very good to be on or close to the front end at the first call. Ran a strong last race. MIGHTY ONE - Could best this group of animals based on the Equibase Speed Fig - 83 - of his last contest.
